SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE. CALL =
OROvILLE, Sept. 5.-After a search
lasting more than three months, Will
liam Speirs. of the Calistoga- Lake
County Stage Company yesterday
found his seven-year-old son at Ban
gor. small place near this city The
boy has been away from home since
the first of June with Mrs. Racket,
an aged woman, with whom he was
found.
Despite the fact that kilograms and
letters were scattered broadcast over
the country. 1t was only yesterday that
the father was able to discover the
exact whereabouts of his son. The
story of the boys disappearance is
peculiar.
Although but. seven years old, the
lad is an expert driver. Mrs. Racket,
who lived on the Speirs place, asked
If he might be allowed to drive for her
and an invalid daughter, who were
going into Trinity County. The daugh-
ter was to return in two weeks with
the boy. Consent was given.
From the day they started out until
yesterday not single word was heard
from them. The father of the boy,
seized with alarm. began search for
Mrs. Rackett. He traced her from
place to place and yesterday found
her with his boy at Bangor.

FONETIC SPELLING
GIVEN A BOOST.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 5.-The Civil
Service Commission has come to the
assistance of President Roosevelt in the
spelling reform. The commission de-
cided today that al persons taking
examinations for positions in any of
the executive departments may use
the fonetic system IL preferred. In
other words, applicants preparing their
papers according to the new code. will
be given the same rating as if the old
style were used. The license to utilize
fonetic spelling is only extended to
the 500 words approved by the Presi-
dent and the board on spelling reform.
It is thought that a larger proper
ton of those hereafter taking civil ser
vice examinations will elect to spell ae-
cording to the new system, believing
that by thus pleasing the President and
his Immediate subordinates their
chances of selection to fill vacancies
viii be enhanced.
The Government Printing Office is
now prepared to obey President Roose-
velt's instructions regarding reform in
spelling. little manual containing
the list OF 300 words ordered by the
President to be used in Government

STUDENTS RECEIVE ADVICE
CONCERNING FUTURE ELECTIONS

the university are advised by George
Edwards, an alumnus of the class Of

at municipal or State elections when
their residence is really elsewhere than
in Berkeley The point regarding stu
dents right to vote. when their homes
are elsewhere and they purpose even
tually returning TO those homes, was
brought up at the last municipal elec-
ton, when a charge was made by a
defeated candidate for a town office
that student votes, all alleged to be
illegal, had defeated him. George Ed

which declares that mans residence
IS the place to which. whenever he is
absent. he has the intention of return

tation will cut out many student votes,

which will serve TO protect the uni

arms and then proceed to interior
towns and gather recruits. The letter
says:
Let Cananea alone for the present
Take Nogales first"
The writer cautions Trevino against
acting too soon, and says:
I'VE cannot yet fix the day on which
the uprising takes place, because We
must arm ourselves. There are forty
revolutionary centers throughout the
country resolved to rise up in arms,
but not all possess sufficient arms
'~The junta is working to secure
funds for the revolution. There are
persons who could loan money with
which to buy arms. If they do IL
the junta will issue the necessary re-
ceipts, which will be reco ognized on the
triumph of the revolution to be repaid
In this manner it will be easier to
secure money. We have to be careful
to make the least noise possible, so
as not to have the Government con-
stantly forewarned. There are some
who would at once throw themselves
on the desPots. This would occasion
nothing but decentralization and panic
We must act when we have the proba-
bility of success. Above all. the move
ment does not lag, but it will not be
on the. 18th of September, as certain
papers have guessingly made it ap-
pear. The day on which the rising
will take place cannot be named. This
depends on the various groups, or the
majority OF them, being ready"

ment of Mr.. Phillip, is one of
the best conducted public insti-
tutions in the state.
