Gentlemen:
IT'S the CALLED jade that winces'
is manifest in the communication
of Jules Il Dupuy published in
the New Iberia Enterprise, in ITS
issue of July the Doth.
This man Dupuy, his body satu-
rated with malice, and with an
utter disregard for truth and de.
cency, makes a desperate appeal
to the public for sympathy, and
bis evil mind explodes with a
charge that | was engaged by
your Honorable Board to do dis.
honest work.

The records show beyond 4
doubt, that two war; ants, Nos.

Peoples National Bank, and there
is absolutely nothing in the re
cords to show that NO. ga was
paid. You have the word of Mr..
DelhOmmer, and do not doubt
the gentleman, that the City does
not owe the amount of No. ga to
the Peoples National Bank, but
that warrant was not paid 10y the
treasurer, 1t was positively not
cancelled, it is still outstanding
and my report shows that fact in
perfectly good faith. ! challenge
any reputable accountant, or any
honorable and fair-miDded bust
ness man to show me III error.
Tho issuing of a new warrant to
pay the same claim, and the cash
iny of SAID warrant on It's date Of
issue, shows on its worry face a
contempt for regular proceedings.
The cause for the disappearance
of warrant No 9il can only be
cOnjecturcd. Perhaps Dupuy can
explain. But, will he?
TO charge that my report is
dOctered is the only defense that
Dupuy can make, and i'm his
dilema he flights his last candle"
IF that man had, in a reasonable
and honest manner been able to
show the people that the report
was incorrect, he would have rem
dered service to the City, and !
would have acknowledged his
privilege, as Il citizen, to do SO.
But yonr Honorable Board,
when Dupuy attempts to charge
me with dishonesty, he makes a
foul accusation and brands him
self as being low and cowardly,
and beneath the notice of a gen
tlcman.
defy, Dupuy to point out any
dishonest act, or semblance of one,
ever committed by me. Every
cent ever made was honestly
earned and / hope that Dupuy can
truthfully say as much.
My conscience is as clear az

ca,;sophiar Club Election.

The members of the ,Calisophian Club
held their first meeting of the season
Tuesday afternoon, and the occasion
was a most pleasant one. There was
an election of officers yesterday, and
those installed in office were Mrs. e.
Covert, president; Mrs. Stewart Eason,
vice president; Mrs. Ella Baker, Sec
rotary; Mrs Roadhouse, treasurer;
and Mrs. j. G.. Van Orman, historian.
The members were entertained at the
home Of Mrs. w. L. Place, 301 South
Center street, by the retiring officers,
who are Mrs. Place, president: Mrs.
Covert, vice president; Mrs. Ella Bak-
err, secretary; Mrs. A. P. Bratt, treas
urer; and Mrs. j. g. Van Orman, his
torian. The afternoon was spent in a
delightful social way, altho some UNI
finished business was attended to. The
club elected one new member Mrs.
George Ordway, and decided to take
I'D the Bay View course of reading in
stead Of the chautauqua course, as for
merly intended This will make it un-
necessary to print calendars. The Bay
View course is very interesting one,
and includes the study Of Germany,
Belgium and Denmark. An elaborate
two-course luncheon was served by the
ho.tesses. Guests present were Mrs.
Places sister, Mrs. j. w. Hamilton, OF
Chadron, Neb., and her friend, Mrs.
G. M. Fogg, OF Peoria. The club will
meet next Tuesday at the home Of Mrs.

Lyceum Bureau Refuses to Book
Him for Date With Search
light Club This Fall
OPENING TO BE POSTPONED
Season, Instead of Beginning With
Wisconsin Governors Address at
MONDAY Luncheon, October 10, Will
Open With First OF Or. stener's
Lectures October s1-LaFoIIette May
Be Secured in TIE Spring.

Owing TO the condition of Governor
LaFollettes health he will not open the
Searchlight Clubs series of gatherings
with the address at the MONDAY
luncheon of the club on October 10.
Instead the opening of the club viii
be set back to the date originally
planned, october 81, when it will begin
with the first of six lectures to be
given by Dr.. f. A. Steiner, of Grin
nell. The change is made necessary
by the refusal of the Slayton Lyceum
bureau, which has charge of Governor
LaFollettes bookings, to place him for
IN extra lecture here. In letter to
Secretary Fellingham the management
of the bureau expressed anxiety over
LaFollettes condition. 1t promised, if
possible, to arrange for date when
he might speak here during April,
when he will again be in Iowa.
Aside from his executive duties as
governor of Wisconsin, LaFollette
spends all of his spare time lecturing
on the movement in which he has been
SO interested. The combined work of
the two have proved so strenuous thai
LaFollette, while possessed of rugged
physical powers has given way under
the strain. His throat has become at
fected from constant speaking
The inability to secure LaFollette as
the star attraction and opening speak
err for the Searchlight Club, is G keen
disappointment to- Secretary FEELING
ham and the members of the club. who
had looked forward to the luncheon
and lecture as one of the treats of the
season. The failure to get him now
causes Encouragement Of the plans
and a reversal of them back to the
original arrangements. DR.. Steiner
will deliver six instead of five lectures
and they WILL with one or two excep-
tons, come on consecutive Tuesday
evenings, so that all of them may be
given before the holidays, as the dates
after that have been assigned to other
lecturers.

GAMES ON SCHOOL GROUNDS.
Board Grants Foot Ball Team Use Of
High School Grounds.


Hereafter, it is more than likely, high
school foot ball practice and games
will be played on a gridiron to be laid
out on the high school grounds, east
of the building. The permission WAS
granted by the school board, at it's reg
ular meeting last night, and while
Superintendent Coffeen, whose request
that the girls be granted room for
basket ball court brought about the
granting of the grounds to the foot ball
team, had no thought of asking for
the latter. it was granted. AS a re-
suit foot ball practice will be brought
from Finkle's park to the high school
grounds, and if the management can
make suitable arrangements all the
games of the season will be played
there. The athletic association is to be
responsible for all damage which may
result to the windows incidental to the
play. The request for the girls bas-
ket ball court was also granted.
Secretary c. c. Caswell acted for the
first time since elected to office. His
bond of $4,000 was approved, and he
was given the oath of office by A, G.
Click, who was temporary chairman in
the absence of President G.. A. Turner.
On account of poor health. Miss
Grace Baker, teacher of the second
grade, Click school, rendered her res
tgnation to become effective October
81. 1t was accepted and on the recon-
mendation of Superintendent Cotfeen
Miss Louise Brumbaugh, of Mason
City, sister of Principal Brumbaush,
was elected to succeed her at a salary
of $50.
The contract with Miss Rachel Curry
Of Evanston, Ill.,. who succeeds Ernest
Mills, as teacher in the high school
was approved, at a salary of $50
month.
A noticeable saving has been made
by the board in the closing OF the Hart
we'll school, and the transporting .
the pupils to other wards on the stree!
cars. Twenty -four pupils We're carries
during the eighteen days of Septemhrr
at cost of $10.7S, as compared with
about $50, the cost Of maintaining the

iod last year.
