The Mexican kids have been having
lots Of fun, aud making lots of fun for
the spectators at ameteur bull fights
Sunday at the stock pens. The boys
have secured regulation boil fighting
uniforms, and have fixed up a bulls
head on the end of a board, and GOV.
cred the board with an imitation Of
BULBS hide. One OF the boys will take
this on his back and prance into the
ring, and all the motions Of a regular
bull fight will be enacted. A great
deal Of the success OF the play is 10 the
strength and activity Of the boy who
is playing the bull, and as he does not
shut his eyes when he charges be has a
great ad advantage over the regular bull.
Complaint OF the bull lighting was
made the first of the week TO the
United States authorities, and the
complalnants forgot to mention that
1t was an imitation bull, aud the
strenuous efforts of the authorities to
put a stop to the bull fighting, and ar.
rest the people who had been engaged
10 the work added to the fun the Am
orleans had out OF 1t.

Recently there was discovered the
question and examination papers Of an
examination Ia the Springfield, Mas
sachusets, high school for 1886, when
the three RS we're the main elements
OF school work. The questions we're
given out to the ninth grade OF the
Springfield school last year, In arlth.
metic 10 1916 the percent Of correctly
answered questions was 29.4. In 1905
it was ESQ. Later in 1906 the same
questions we're given to the eighth
grade pupils 10 a Brooklyn school, aud
the percentage Of those who answered
correctly was 71.27. These results we're
printed 10 the New York Sun. This
brought q letter from the father Of a
fourteen year old boy in the eighth
grade With the questions at a special
examination, where 10 a class OF forty.
six nineteen had missed entirely. Both
sets OF examples we're sent up to the
Lordsburg school, and Miss Swan pick
ed out those which were slmilar to
ones that had been worked by her
fourth grade, and gave them TO these
scholars TO work. The examples we're
as follow:
1. Add !, / OF I, 90 minus Z, and SO
divided by /.
2. Add 8 tenths and % thousaudths,
multiply the sum by IS ten.thOu-
sandths, divided result by 5 millionths.
3. Add together the following mum.
hers: .009, 49,, l., 301., 6l., 702., $1,000,
1913. and IL.
4 Multiply 1O,OOs by 5000.
5. What is I OF 1851?
The drst two questions are from the
list given the 46 eighth grade scholars
In New York. which we're missed by
nineteen Of them; the other questions
we're from the old list found 10 Spring
field. Miss Swan gave them to a class
Of seven girls and I've boys, ranging 10
age from 9 TO 10 years, who had at.
tended school from two to Eve years.
or the two questions missed by nine
teen New Workers, who had some four
years more schooling than these chill.
dFen, one was worked by all OF them,
and the other was worked correctly by
eleven out Of the twelve. Six OF the
girls worked ali Of these examples cor.
rectly, aud the seventh only missed
q OF them. Two Of the boys worked
all Of them, one worked four, one
three, and the other only worked one.
Most OF the errors we're made 10 the
decimels. The children who did this
work we're Eugenia Shine, Csrmlta
Belt, Georgia Holland, Jenny Marsalis,
Dora Cappleman, Velma Bailey, Lot
tie Cannon, L. Kerr, r. Wright, N.
M~arsalls, Walter Dunagan, and Jessie
Hill. 1t is hard to say why these
scholars could do examples that eighth
grade New Workers missed. Some say
it is because we have got better teach
ers; some that 1t is because the chill
dren are brighter, and some because
the children are living ia a territory
Instead Of a state. Every person is
entitled to his own guess.

QUARREL
ENDS IN SUIT

broken engagement and a broken
bank account, but not a broken heart
are the basis of a suit filed in the
Justices Court yesterday by Joseph
w. Fl. Brenner against Sadie Harmon,
who, after pledging ner heart and hand
decided that after all she didn't be-
lieve she would care for Brenner as
life partner. Brenner in the meantime
had been showering the object of his
affections with costly gifts, which he
now thinks that under the circum-
stances he should have back in order
to be prepared for an emergency. Bren-
ner's suit against Miss Harmon is for
$500
The plaintiff leaves out of his COM
plant all mention of great grief and
suffering or anything else which might
indicate that his heart is not as sound
as 1t ever was. He does state however
that subsequent to his engagement. and
on the strength of it, he presented Miss
Harmon with a diamond ring worth
$50, diamond sunburst of like value
and pair of diamond earrings which
cost him 500. He wants the equiva-
lent in cash.

SAILOR SUES FOR.
HEAVY DAMAGES
Declares That Captain of
Whaler Bowhead and His
Mates Beat Him Severely
TELLS OF CRUELTIES

A tale of brutality on the high seas
is told in the complaint filed in the
United States District Court yester-
day by Karl Faber. seaman on board
the whaler Bowhead. He asks for
$4,000 damages from the owners of
the Bowhead for beatings and kickings
inflicted upon him by Captain John A.
Cook, master of the vessel, and by his
mates
According to the complaint Faber
shipped as a green hand on one
two hundredth "lay" in April, 1908. for
thirty-six months cruise in the
Arctic, and he declares that from the
time he shipped until the middle of
May, 1905, 'he was persistently, fire.
quently and almost continually beaten,
kicked and abused"
The first episode occurred in San
Francisco harbor in April, 1903, when
Faber complained of a sore leg. Cap
tain Cook then said, 'Tll give you a
DOCTOR" at the same time kicking
Faber with his heavily booted foot
with such force and violence as to
send him heels over head from the poop
of the vessel"
The second offense complained OF took
place at Nome, Alaska, on June 25,
when Faber, because OF fear Of the
master" jumped overheard and tried
to escape from the vessel by swimming.
He was recaptured, handcuffed and
fastened to a stanchion in the main
hatch, where the captain punched his
face with his fist several times. He
was then put upon diet of three hard
tack biscuits a day, with little water
to soften the crackers.
On another occasion at Herschel
Island the master ordered the mate to
give the Dutchman -" and the mate
obediently punched Faber's head. In
November of the same year the master
felled Faber to the deck and stamped
upon him with both feet Faber says.
In January, 1904 the mate kicked and
beat Faber again and gave him a black
eye whereupon Faber, 'actuated by
despair, struck the mate in the mouth,
which was the first blow ever struck
by him. The mate thereupon picked
UP an ak and felled Faber with the
handle.
Off Bailey Island. in August, 1904.
the master, after kicking and beating
Faber, knocked him senseies with
scantling. In September 1904, at
Herschel Island, the first and second
mates beat Faber with sticks for twenty
minutes, he declares in his complaint.
On March 5, 1905, at Herschel Island,
the mate kicked him. and. with the
assistance of the master and the boat
steerers, drove him into a room, where
he was ironed and thrown into the
main hatch for about two hours, the
temperature being at the freezing point
Faber was then triced up and fed only
on hardtack and water.
A libel against the same vessel also
was filed by George Main and two
other members of the crew to recover
$47.364 as damages for insufiiciency of
food, breach of contract, cruel treat
ment and wages due.

Eugene E. Pfaeff1e. defeated Republi-
can and Union Labor candidate for
Assemblyman in the Thirty sixth AS
sembly District. has filed a contest in
the Superior Court against John Wes-
sling, the Independence Leagu candi-
date, who was declared elected at the
election of November Z. The official
returns showed 295 votes for Wessling,
Isl for Pfaeff1e and 10 for John r.
Twigg, the Democratic nominee.
Pfaef1e alleges that Wessling secured
his election by fraud and that twenty
four votes in his favor were cast by
persons not qualified to vote, for the
reason that they had not been resi-
dents of the district for thirty days as
required by law. He also claims that
in order to secure his election, Wes-
sling induced forty-five persons. who
were not legal residents of the district,
to register.

JoRGENsEN APPEARS NERVOUS

Jorgensen was nervous during the
whole time he was on the stand as a
witness and contradicted several of the
statements which he made when the
matter was first brought to the at
tention of the court. He declared that
when he went to see Marchus after his
interlocutory decree had been granted
he did SO because the attorney
wished to find out something concern
ing a proposed suit for maintenance
with which he was familiar, and that
his visit had nothing to do with his
own divorce matter. He could not give
the name of the woman in whose be-
half the alleged maintenance suit was
to be brought.
In connection with the receipts
shown to Goddard, Jorgensen stated
that he has since lost one of them and
that he destroyed the other because he
was afraid 1t would get him in trou-
BILE. On cross-examination he gave
various accounts of what this money
had been paid for, but insisted that
Marchus had told him at the outset
of the case that it would cost in the
neighhorhood of 500 to secure both
DEGREES. He first said that he was not
contemplating another marriage, but
later admitted that he was
AS Jorgensen started to put on his
overcoat after leaving the stand he

A defect in the New York labor law
has been confirmed by the Appellate
division of the Supreme Court In the
case OF manufacturer. who was
charged with keeping women at his
factory after 10 o'clock at night, the
court held that section n. relating 10
the employment OF women, is uncon-
stitutionaI because it is based upon the
assumption that owing 20 some pbysi-
cal or nervous disability ii is more
harmful for a woman TO work at night
than man" In sustaining the dis
charge Of the accused the court held
that the foregoing position is unten-
able.
y The difference between trust and
trades unionism is thus defined: A
trust excludes the many for the ben-
