Telegraphers' Tournament.

BOSTON, Mass, June 29.-What
promises to be the greatest telegrapher
tournament ever held here or in any
other city of this country, will begin at
fremont temple this afternoon. The
list of prizes to be competed for is
greater than ever before and the en-
tries are unusually numerous, showing
the great interest of the profession in
all parts of the country in this con-
test of speed and accuracy. l@mong
those who will take part in the various
contests are men of considerable PROM
inence, like w. M. Gibson, of New
York the present worlds champion; F.
NJ McClintic, also of New York; Philip
j. Faulkner, and many others who have
at different times shown their remak-
able skill in manipulating the key.
OF course, the chief interest is CEN
tered in the message, broker and press
classes, but the management has made
such a liberal offer to the railroad
operators that that class Of the pro-
fession will be unusually represented

Cupid Lures Hundreds.

CLEVELAND, June 29.-Cupid has
broken the record among the city pub
lie school teachers this year. More
than 100 of the younger women re-
signed in the past week. They will be
married before the June recess will
have Wilted.
"The school seems to have become a
matrimonial agency on an extensive
SCALE" said Superintendent Elson.
1.-The demand Cupid has wrought may
result in our embarrassment when
school opens in the fall Good teachers
are hard to get and we may not be able
to fill all of the vacancies.
Il have delegated Assistant Superin-
tendent Muckler as sponsor for the
school and he will represent the board

FAIL TO RENEW LICENSES

SECRETARY OF STATE HOLDS
THAT ALL OLD LICENSES
EXPIRED MAY 81.
ONLY ITS LICENSED IN THE STATE

Of more than 600 automobiles, and
motor vehicles actually known to be in
this state, but 275 have bought licenses
for this year. And of those which are
entitled to wear the numbers more
than half are new machines-that is
to say, they have been brought into
the state this year. OF more than $50
licensed last year, but 10 per cent have
renewed These facts were disclosed at
the Office of the secretary of state
when inquiry was made concerning Ii
censed autos, AS in the case of cor
poration licenses, the state laws pro-
vide that licenses for automobiles shall
be for the II months ending May 81.
All the old licenses, even if they were
issued during last May, expired at the
end of that month. The licenses are
not good for a year from the date the
fee is paid, unless it be paid June l.
The figures of the delnquents show.
for instance, that but three autos
owned in Spokane which We're licensed
before May 81 last have renewed, While
80 new machines have been licensed
there this month. Seattle shows 81 new
machines and So renewals, while Taco
ma shows % new licenses and 10 re-
newals. The secretary of state will
not send out notices Of these delin-
quencies, as there is no provision of
law for such notification. 1t is ex-
pected. however, that this publication
will bring the matter to the attention
of the owners of automobiles and re-
suit in a large number of renewals.
