The fourth annual hunt of the
cl ub took place Thursday,

sc ore WAS 1920 points and was
made by j. L. Gilvin, who killed
AZ rabbits, 8 crows and owl.

Elmer Billups and John Hin.
richs ma de together 2,215 points
but as pooling was against
the rules of the club, their
points were not counted.
AS the boys were ignorant of
of this ruling they were invited
to part axe of the supper.
Some of the crack shots of 1.-THE
c lub made low scores because
they were unfortunate in not
fin ding the game to kill.
Accordin g to the agreement
those making the lowest scores
were required to furnish the
viands for the banquet. These

The feast as prepared by Mrs.
J. M. Brammer was one fit for
the gods and fully demonstrated
that good lady's superior ability
as a culin nary artist.
When supper was announced,
the win ners, having won their
rs in the hunt from their
vanqui shed opponents. were
given seats at the first table
W here they listened to an elo-
quent toast, "The Winners" by
j. M. Brammer, who was one of
the los ers. Mr.. Brammar's re-
m arks showed that he was
''game" even in the hour of de-.
feat.

in Latin and created much
amusement, but some Of the

were finally forced to abandon

CALIFORNIA
CONTENTION

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. S.-Cali-
fornia's contention In the Japa-
nese question has been incorpor-
ated in a statement of facts to be
submitted for consideration in the
action contemplated by the gov
eminent to test the stae's right to
pass statutes separating Japanese
attending public schools from
white pupils. The state law pro-
viding for the establishment of
schools for Indian, Monaghan and
Chinese is cited, and also the pro-
vision that until these schools are
established the children of races
mentioned must not be denied ad-
mission to regular schools. The
separate schools are to be con.
Quoted on the same plan as schools
for white children.
This statement, with other pa
pers in the case, has been for
warded to Washington for the at
torney generals consideration.
In general way, the terms
upon which the state wants the
Japanese question adjusted is
summed up as follows:
The federal government to enact
new treaty with Japan excluding
Japanese coolie labor from the
United States and Hawaii and,
American labor from Japan.
Japanese contract labor importa-
tons to cease.
Equality in public schools, with
separate schools for adult Japa-
nese desiring primary and gram
mar school training.
A decision by the United States
supreme court on the states right
to pass provisions preventing
amalgamation of races and other
| school laws.
The federal government to de-
eide the right to franchise for the
Japanese, California suggesting
only federal cognizance of Japa-
nese class distinctions in passing
| the law.
Keep the question out of the
hands of congress.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH
A DRUNKEN HUSBAND?

(Recently The Press published a
letter from a woman who is COM
PEELED to work for wages because
her husband spends his money for
liquor and allows her nothing for
herself or the house. What would
you do with such a husband? Here
is how one woman would fix him.
Editor The Press-On Dec. 5
read with interest an article in The
Press in which the question was
asked, what can a woman do
whose husband does not buy her
any clothing, furniture or cooking
utensils, although he earns 81 per
day."
If my husband earned 81 a day,
or even as little as S12 a week, l
certainly would not 20 out to work.
/ would do my house work to the
best of my ability, and if he were
drinking man, would do all in my
power to reform him. Failing in
that I would give him to under

WALLER WAKES UP
AT LAST

Chief of Police Waller has issued
an order that all boys and girls
found lettering around the streets
at night who are under II years of
age be placed under arrest. The
order is supposed to be aimed at
those attracted to the tenderloin
district by the pictures flashed on
canvas from the Occur d'Alene re-
sort. The crowds that congregate
nightly in front of this place have
long been a source of complaint,
particularly so during the fair,
when street cars stopped on the
corner of Howard and Front and
the passengers and pedestrians
were compelled to take the middle
of the street in order to get
through the crowd in front of the
Occur d'Alene. At that time a
large part of the crowd was made
up of children, who mingled freely
with tenderloin loafers. No at
tention was paid to these com
plants by the police department.
The recent cold weather has
thinned out the gathering to such
an extent that 1t is now possible
for pedestrians to force a passage
