RUSHING PLANS
ON SIX SCHOOLS
BIDS WILL BE ADVERTISED
THIS WEEK
Feature Of Buildings In consested
Districts VIII Have Shower
Baths-AmpIe Funds In
Sight, Say Members

According to reports from the mem
bers of the school board, the prospect
for school building and enlaEging this
summer is now bright. 81
The plans for the Fortieth Street
school have been completed for some
time and the board of education is now
advertising for bids for the construc-
ton of the buildings.
1t is expected that the plans for six
more of the school buildings that are
to be erected will be in shape so that
bids can be advertised for this week.
One new building and two additions
will be built in Boyle Heights. Plans
are now nearly completed for the build
ing at the corner of Euclid and
Stephenson avenues.
The buildings on Cornwell and Second
streets will be enlarged. Work on ad-
ditions will necessarily be delayed until
school is dismissed for the summer
vacation.
Shower Baths, Too
One of the features of the schools in
the congested districts that pleases all
OF the members of the board of educa-
ton, and especially j. M. Quinn, who
was member Of the conmittee that
iSpOllSu ldNOIdDiy upOil lneir lIlSldlld-
,tion, is the shower baths.
All of the new schools in these dis
tricts will be equipped with these
"sprinklers." A bath was recently put
into the Utah Street school. The
Amelia Street school has had this ar
rangement for some time.
"The children think it is great fun, u
said Mr.. Quinn. 1T is really a great
necessity. The children come to school
In such a condition that they should
not enter the building. In a few
minutes the sprinkler works wonder
full change.
"In many places the homes from
which the children come are so small
and built SO close together that they
do not afford room for any bathing
arrangement"
Mr.. Quinn says that it is his belief
that the board will have ample funds
for the erection Of the buildings being
planned. Many OF the additions in
grounds for old school buildings that
have been planned will not be made for
some time or until the members Of the
board of education members see that
they. are going to have enough money
to erect the new buildings and buy
more grounds for the other schools.

PLAINFIELD, N. j., May g.
Plainfield is full of black cloud and
the black cloud is streaked with a
thousand rainbows, more or less,
thanks to the coming of the members
Of the Church OF God and Saints of
Christ, the negroes who think that
they are the only real Jews, and have

began yesterday with a street parade
in seven colors, in which everybody
participated but the seven elders, who
had been assigned by Elijah the
Prophet to cook the lamb that was

After the parade there was feast

DRUCGED AND
THEN ROBBED
MAN is NEARLY DEAD WHEN
FOUND IN ROOM
Lodger In Main Street Rooming Place
Loses $15o-Police Direct Sus-
plclon at Notorious San
Francisco Crook

Joe Young, guest at the ST. Louis
lodging house, Second and Main streets,
was chloroformed and robbed of $50
Saturday night, according to the story
he told the detectives yesterday. Young
was taken to the receiving hospital in
a state of collapse and the police sur
geons at once saw that the man had
been drugged.
He admitted that he drank heavily
during the evening and when he retired
was under the influence of liquor. The
next thing that he remembers, he said,
was awaking from a state of stupor
to find pillow bound tightly over his
face.
He struggled to rise from the bed,
but was unable. His struggles at
tracted attention of the night clerk who
soon appeared in the room.
Money Gone
An investigation showed that Young's
trunk had been broken open and nearly
$50 in gold taken from 1t. Several
small coins lay scattered on the floor.
The robber saturated towel with
cllloroform and placed 1t on the face
Of the victim and then bound a Pill
low over the towel. Owing to Young's
an attempt to administer an anesthetic
almost always awakens a sleeping sub
ject, it is said.
Young was found to be in pre-
carious condition and was hurried to
the receiving hospital. Hard work on
the part of the police surgeons brought
him out of his stupor.
Detectives Boyd and Jones were de-
tailed on the case to find out with
whom Young was drinking Saturday
night.
A thaorv was advanced that some
casual acquaintance administered the
chloroform in glass of beer and then
accompanied Young to his room.
The police say that genuine cases of
chloroforming persons for the purpose
of robbing them are rare. The work
was evidently done by professional,
say the detectives, and suspicion is di-
rected to a San Francisco crook, who
is said to be in the city.

Chutes epark grounds, by a score Of
6 to 8.
Twice have the antlered ones and
the Knights met In battle royal upon
the baseball field, and as a result the
Elks are congratulating themselves
with the two victories secured from
the knights.
The hitting was light on both sides
and most of the runs came as a result
Of erratic fielding. Harris was In the
box for the Elks, with Maurice Nor
iarty tossing them across from the
Knights slab. Neither twirler was
touched to any great extent and the
runs came across as the support varied.
The Elks possess one of the strong
est amateur diamond aggregations in
Southern California and many of the
players are former stars of semi-pro-

Charles Riley, four years ago cap
