Mrs. Wainwright's Lecture.

An interesting illustrated lecture on ItaI-
Ian gardens was given yesterday at Rausch-
er's by Mrs. Wilton P. Wainwright of
Boston. The subject is one which admits
of peculiar artistic treatment, and the views
which Mrs. Wainwright showed were par
ticularly well selected. Many of them were
made from photographs which she had TAX
en- herself, and a number were beautifully
colored. The lecture took the form of a
personally conducted tour through some of
the most famous of the Italian gardens be-
ginning In Rome and ending in Lombardy
The fact that there are no small gardens In
Italy, and few flower gardens, was inter-
estlngly Set forth, as were, also, the char
acterlst1cS of the much-talked-of formal
garden" Among the patronesses were Mrs
Chas. j. Bell. Mrs. George Lathrop Brad
ley, Mrs. Oliver Wendell Holmes, Miss Ell
len D. Hale Mrs. Henry Cabot Lodge, Mrs.
F. L. Morse, Mrs. Pinchot and Mrs. Herbert
WadSworth.

OF YOUR Heart,

1t is the engine that forces the
blood to every part of the body; this
blood conveys the nourishment that
makes flesh, bone and muscle; it
also carries off the WORKOUT parti-

If the heart futters or palpitates,
it is weak, and is working imperfect
ly, SO that the body does not get
this nourishment; it also fails TO
throw off the impurities, and they
remain to poison the system.
If it is irregular, skips beats or
is painful, the heart is probably
'leaky' and the circulation poor

CHARTER REVOCATION
ENGINEERS AND FIREMEN AR
RAIGN BREWERY WORKERS.

President Timothy Healy of the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Stationary Firemen
and President John e. Drummer of the In
ternational Union of Stationary Engineers
made a formal move at the meeting of the
executive council of the American Fedora
ton of Labor yesterday afternoon for the
revocation Of the charter of the Interna-
tional Union Of Brewery Workers. There
has been a long and bitter jurisdictional
fight between the brewery workers organi-
cation and those of the flremen and engi-
neers and Presidents Healy and BrunRer
say they have come here to bring the con-
test to a finish. The matter will receive
further consideration at the hands Of the
executive council today.
The decision was reached by the council
yesterday afternoon that millmen and cabi-
net workers employed in breweries properly
come under the jurisdiction Of the Anal
gamated Wood Workers International
Union. A subcommittee was appointed to
draft statement setting forth the position
of the federation with respect to the project
of the King of Italy for an International
agricultural congress at which immigration
and labor would be considered.
The request of two parties for permission
to issue a label bulletin with advertise
ments, and also to print an unfair list, with
advertisements, was denied upon the ground
that 1t is but another feature of souvenirs
which have in the past led to confusion and
have been demonstrated to be to the detrt-
ment of the cause of labor.
Makes Second Visit.
President Timothy Healy of the station
airy firemen appeared again this forenoon
before the executive council and urged
the revocation of the charter of the United
Brewery Workmen. Louis Kemper and J.
Proebstle of Cincinnati and Edward f.
Ward of Boston, representing the brewery
workers, also appeared in opposition to the
contention of the engineers and firemen. At
the close of the forenoon session President
Samuel Gompers stated that the council
would endeavor to bring about an amicable
settlement of the long-standing jurisdic-
tional dispute between the two international
organizations.

sentative OF the American Federation OF

CONTRACTOR AND BOARD
DELAY SCHOOL OPENING
DISAGREE AS TO CONSTRUCTION
OF POLYTECHNIC
Engstrom Says Building Is Completed
as Per Specifications, Directors
Contending otherwlse--lnstaIl Ilatlon
of Furniture Indefinitely Postponed

1t is highly probable that there will be
delay in opening the new polytechnic
high school, as the building committee
Of the city council and Contractor F. o.
Engstrom are at loggerheads. This is
caused by the building committees re-
fusal to accept the building until the
contractor has made certain changes in
compliance with the specifications.
AS the committee refuses to accept
the building the contractor will not per-
NIT the board of education to equip the
school for the reception of pupils
1t is now less than two weeks until the
date for opening the fall term Of school
and not desk has been installed.
Assistant City Attorney Goudge is
endeavoring to patch up some kind of
peace and has drawn UP an agreement
which is expected to be signed by the
opposing factions and the work of
fitting up the school may be begun. The
agreement provides that the contractor
turn over the building to the board of
education and finish the work under
the supervision of the city attorney.
The changes demanded are few and of
minor Importance. These include lad
ders in the airshaft, placing vent pipes
intoilets, recalcimining the girls dress
ing room, closing a hole in the engine
room and placing fire hose reels in the
rooms as provided by the specifications.
The building committee has stated in
cept the building until these conditions
are complied with, and Contractor Eng
strom has just as emphatically stated
that he will not allow the board of edu-
cation to take charge of the building
until it is formally accepted.

PUBLIC WORKS JOBS FOR
AMERICAN LAB0RERS ONLY
CITY ATTORNEY RULES AGAINST
ALIENS
Civil Service Commission Notifies the
Park Board That Native or Natu-
rallied Citizens Only Are Eligible
for Positions in Departments

Mexicans and other aliens who have
been earning So a day by working on
the streets and in other public depart
ments Of Los Angeles will have to look
elsewhere for employment, as the civil
service commission has ruled that no
alien may be employed by the city.
This position of the civil service
board was made patent in letter read
at meeting Of the board Of park COM
missioners yesterday morning. The let
ter is as follows:
"Your attention is especially called
to the following opinion rendered to
this commission under date of Septem-
ber s, 1905, by the city attorney: In
answer to your letter asking whether
there is any law requiring employees on
public works to be American citizens
L beg to inform you that it is provided
by an act Of the legislature, passed in
1901, that no person except native born
or naturalized citizens of the United
States shall be employed in any depart
ment of the state county or city gov
ernments, and the same act provides
that it shall be unlawful for any person
holding a public office to appoint or
employ any person not citizen"
50 Assert Citizenship
1t is understood that most of the
Mexicans who are more or less regu-
larly employed on the public works
assert they are native born, many Of
them claiming Arizona as their homes.
1t may be necessary, however, for most
of them to produce the family Bible or
some other conclusive evidence that they
were not born across the border line.
Some of the Mexicans have naturaliza-
tion papers and can show these to prove
the disputed point.

number of trees that will be shipped
