A man and bull dog contested
FOR honors and justice before Recor-
Ter Palmer yesterday morning and
the bull dog got the honors and the
man the justice; that is. taking in
20 consideration the decision of the
court.
1t appeared from the evidence ad-
duced that the man attacked the dog
on Railroad avenue Thursday NOR
ming and that a knife in the hands of
the aggressor was used upon his
dogship's head until the latter lost
his proverbial fighting proclivities
and qualifications and quit the con-
test a fit subject for a veterinary.
Friends Of this canine, whose mas
ter Is away on a business trip South,
had the matter brought to the at
tention OF the authorities, with the
result that the man who used the
knife 30 freely and effectively was
arrested and locked up. His trial
was called for Friday morning but
was postponed until yesterday NOR
ming when the case was the first on
the docket.
The dog numbered among his wit
nesses bookkeeper, a newspaper
reporter, a teamster. a negro and
several others, all of whom testi-
ned to his docility and gentle de-
meanor. The court promptly fined
the man a five spot and the dog is
left to recuperate and consider mat
ters.

TOM WATSON RETIRES

Tom Watson, of Georgia, has re-
tired from the editorship of Tom
Watson's Magazine. it is said. with
$4,000 OF his salary remaining due
and unpaid. We did not think there
was room for such a publication.
Magazine readers in this country
seem to banker for two kinds of
literature-the crude, intense and
smooth, placid and torpid. Mr.. Wat
son somehow slid in between these
two extremes and never seemed to

DEATH CLAIMS
SYRIAN LEPER

Pickens, w. Va, Oct. 20.-George
Raschid, the leper. died yesterday
morning. Hearst failure was the i'm
mediate cause of his death, though
the leprosy has made rapid strides
in the last ten days. Two of his
fingers and the toes on one foot
were almost off. His tongue was
covered with sores and badly swol-
len. The officials have been noti-
fed, and 1t is likely his body will
be cremated.

"FRATS" IN THE BALANCE
MINNEAPOLIS PARENTS WATCH
OUTCOME OF INJUNCTION CASE
AGAINST CHICAGO SCHOOL,
BOARD.

Minneapolis parents and educators
are watching with; deep interest the
progress of the in junction proceedings
brought to test the anti- fraternity rul
ing made by the directors of the Chica-
90 high schools. The situation in Chi
cago is similar to that in Minneapolis
in that high school students who are
members Of Greek letter societies are
barred from all school honors.
High school fraternities in Chicago
were scored by the board Of education
in an answer filed to in junction proceed
ings brought by parents of five pupils
of the Hyde Park high school last week.
The answer, in enumerating the weak
points in fraternities, says:
"The existence Of fraternities and
Greek letter societies among pupils Of
the high schools is causing a retrogres-
sion in the conduct and the scholarship
Of the high schools; the existence Of the
societies creates cliques and factions,
and destroys the unity and democracy
Of the school life.
1T has become necessary for the
preservation of the high standard of
conduct and scholarship which has ex-
listed in the Chicago public high schools
to enact some rule for the government
of pupils who are members of the secret
societies. The opinion Of educators in
the Chicago public schools is unanimous
in deeming the existence of fraternities
and Greek letter societies injurious to
the public schools.
- FThe scholarship of members of
these fraternities is lower than the
scholarship of pupils outside the frater-
nities''

Miss Donbey, "and I am northern

commercialism, which is destroying our
manners more or less everywhere, is
beginning to manifest itself in the
south as well as here.

which was always respectful, consider

NO MORE WHEAT TO PORTLAND
Hartman Lines Take cognizanee OF
Grain Handlers Strike
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 26.-The
Evening Telegram says orders were
issued by the Hartman lines today that
no more cars of wheat will be hauled
to Portland until the strike of the grain
handlers Is at an end.
The order means the cereal will either
be held in the upper country until the
strike is at an end or 1t will go to
Tacoma on the joint rates established
by the Washington railroad commits
sion.
Exporters do not evince particular
concern over the latest development, as
they say 1t plays into their hands, in
asmuch as the wheat will go to the
sound as they stated it would, If the
grain handlers refused to return to
labor.
The order of the Washington railroad
commission yesterday that tracks be
constructed by the oregon Railway &
Navigation company at different points
in Washington so traffic could be in
terchanged with the Northern Pacific
and it's allied lines is said to pave the
way for the general diversion of wheat
to the north because exporters main
tain warehouses at those points.
The exptent of the possible tieup of
the grain fleet at this port, unless one
side or the other in the grain handlers
strike surrenders, can, in measure, be
judged from the fact that there are
bound for this port sixty-four vessels
including sixteen larger steamers.
OF this number fifty-one vessels are
already under charter to carry grain to
Europe, and before the fleet arrives off
the mouth of the Coz lmbia river others
of the ships probably will have been
chartered for this seasons grain busi-

PASS BILLBOARD ORDINANCE
No More Gauzily Clad, Dreamy Pic
lures May Be Displayed
DnhIir

At the request of the w. c. T. u,
the council yesterday passed an ordi-
nance prohibiting the posting of pict-
ures of women clad only in rainbow
wreath and the flush of sleep on the
billboards of the city. The terms of
the ordinance provide that no obscene
bills shall be posted or circulated in the
city.
This ordinance takes the place OF
one already on the city's law books,
but which it has been found impossible
to enforce, as under its terms only the
man who Yields the paste brush and
puts the pictures on the boards could
be prosecuted. 1t was desired to reach
the persons who were responsible for
their being posted. Under the new or
dinance all such persons can be pros
ecuted and fined not more than $500
or imprisoned for 100 days in jail.
