ADJUSTMENTS
West Ministries Tonight.

The name of Van is by no means an
unfamiliar one to amusement patrons,
for every once in a while it crops out
from among the countless array of
comedy talent and hobs up serenely in
most unexpected manner. George
S. Van, however, has for a considerable
space of time been recognized as the
accepted leader in the fun monologue
line, and his reputation was not long
in attracting the attention of Manager
Ricaby, who was indeed fortunate in
adding this extremely comical Van to
the William H. West Minstrel aggrega-
ton, which is scheduled to appear at
the Keylor Grand tonight.
The advantage that George S. Van
has, and a very decided one it is, too,
is that he is as original as he is funny,
and that the laugh-provoking material
he uses is as wholesome and health
full as it is unctious There is an irri-
sistible something about this comedian
that leaves pleasant taste in the
mouth after the convulsive smiles they
produce.

Loved by Teachers end Pupils.

ATLANTA, Ca, March 6.-The
teachers and pupils in the public
schools of this city are celebrating to-
day the seventy-ffth birthday of Major
W. F. Slaton, superintendent of the
Atlanta public schools. Mrs. j. G.
Scrutchin, principal of the State street
school, is at the head of the arrange
ments for the celebration.
Major Slaton is loved by every
child and every teacher who is EN-
ployed in the public schools of At
lanta. Perhaps few educators in the
country have won so much love among
their fellow workers as Major Slaton.
He became first connected with the
schools of this city in 1874, and in 1879
was made superintendent which posi-
ton he has held without intermission
ever since.

so-called boxing contest here next Tues

cording to Mayor A. B. Eastman, who
says prizefghting must stop in Van

no means a reform mayor, he evidently
intends to carry on a clean administra-

was FASTENED by the urgent appeals of
a number of leading citizens who have
repeatedly made efforts to stop the

Will Prosecute All.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, March g.
frankie Neil, the fighter under rarest
for manslaughter in connection with
the death of Harry Tenny following a
bout at Mechanics pavilion last We'd
nesday night, has admitted that there
had been no medical examination of
the fighters as required by law, and
that DR.. Day, whose name was given
by the fight promoters as having made
the examination, was a myth. The case
has assumed a serious aspect as Dis
trict Attorney LangdOn had already
announced that if no examination had
been held that he would prosecute all
connected with the fight to the fullest
extent of the law.
Attorney Ashe, representing Neil,
confirmed the statement Of the fighter.
He said the responsibility rested with
the associated fight clubs, the mana
gers of which evidently were too par
simonious to hire a physician to make
the examination. The board Of health
declares that there is no such ply
stefan as DR.. Day The question has
been raised, Who signed the bogus GER
tificate of examination?

dero Work Stopped.
Construction of New Lines and I'm.
provements Being Made Aban-
dOned. Plant at Lafayette to
Be Completed.

Following the reduction in toll.
ordered by the Railroad Commits
sion, the Cumberland Telephone
Company has ordered all improve
ment work discontinued, speak
ing of which the Shreveport
Times says:
The story from Baton Rouge, which
appears to be hurt more than other
cities, is as follows:
From one end of Louisiana to the
other, the Cumberland Telephone and
Telegraph Company has stopped work
on the construction of its new lines and
the improvements that are being made
at various points.
In Baton Rouge, where the company
has been engaged for the past several
months in constructing a new ex-
change, rewriting the entire city and
putting in a new system, employing
twenty-five men, work was stopped and
the men will scatter to different
parts.
This order from the Cumberland
Telephone Company to stop work
ONE because that corporation does
not like the order issued by the Loui-
siana Railroad Commission at its last
session directing a reduction of 10 per
CEN in the toll lines service.
1t is considered by officials at the
capitol as an effort to bluff the COM
mission, and the outcome will be
watched with a great amount of inter-
est.
When the telephone toll rate ques-
ton was up before the Railroad Com
mission the Cumberland, which was
the only company affected, made a
vigorous protest against the reduc-
ton. declaring at the time that they
were compelled to give a service
SAAOoPC uu0A tlIO SOLuLulSSlOA OOlA-
PEELED the Telegraph Company to fur
nish, and they did not see how they
could make the reduction that was
directed by the commission.
The new toll lines service does not
60 into effect until September l, the
Cumberland Company being given
that long to arrange its business for
the new schedule.
What effect the action of the Cum
berland Company in stopping its o
structlon work throughout Louisiana
will have on the stand taken by the
commission will develop in the future.
The building of new toll lines cannot
be compelled by the commission, and
if the ours that is apparently deter
mined upon by the Cumberland Com
pany is adhered to, telephone develop
ment in this state will be at a stand
still.
The Cumberland Company says that
it is cutting down expenses. The Or
der to stop work was sent out by tele-
graph today.
The work in Baton Rouge is stop
ped when the building of the exchange
is just completed. All of the material
is on the ground, and has been here
for several months, but the company
is proceeding as if it does not propose
to do any work, as all of the
men who have been employed in the
construction work have been employ
ed in the construction work have been
released.
An Advertiser reporter inter-
viewed Manager Watts. Of the To-
cal exchange, who stated in re-
ply to an inquiry as to what the
company would do in regard to
Lafayette, that the new exchange
was almost completed and that
work would continue here until
it was finished.
