upholstered. The patrons, whether
ladies' or gentlemen, may continue

for there are handsome cuspidors to
match the furniture. The Cabinet
stand is a five chair construction and
the Casino stand has four chairs so
the management will be able to shine
at least nine pairs of shoes while the
patrons wait for them. This improve
ment represents quite an investment
for a progressive bootblack and means
that Ben is putting good deal of
muscle into civil pride. 1t Will take

CONFERENCE NO. 2
A DEADLOCK APPEARS IN THE
FRlsco-JAPANEsE SITUATION.
THE PRESIDENT AND THE SAN
FRANCISCO OFFICIALS FAIL
TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

Washington, d. CAS- a result
of an hours conference at the White
House Monday afternoon at which
President Roosevelt, Secretary of
State Root, Mayor Schmitz. of San
Francisco, and the members of the
school board of that city participates
Mayor SchmitZ late last night made
a statement summarizing the situa5
ton.
When asked whether the PROPOSE
ton submitted by the San Francisco
delegation called for the exclusion of
Japanese coolie labor from this coun-
try, Mayor Schmitz replied:
I'VE are not making treaty and
have not discussed with the president
the question of excluding the Jap.
anese from this country by treaty. On
Saturday we heard the presidents
views and to-day we presented our
side of the question at issue. 1t now
remains for us to modify our views in
order to reach an agreement with the
president, or for Mr. Roosevelt to
modify his views to reach an agree
ment with us. To days conference
adjourned subject to the call of the
president, and | do not believe that
we will be called to the White House
again until Thursday or Friday"
1t has been agreed that the whole
matter will be considered at the cabi-
net meeting to-day. Mayor Schmitz
declined to say whether the question
of excluding the Japanese coolies by
congressional legislation formed a
part of their proposition which was
submitted to the president in writing.
1t can be authoritatively stated that
the president has appealed to Mayor
SchmitZ and his associates to bring
the anti-Japanese agitation to an end
by resembling the school boards or
der for the establishment of Oriental
schools. Under the California law the
question of separate schools is left to
the discretion of the school authori-
ties and before the earthquake disas-
ter the Japanese were admitted to the
white schools. Mayor Schmitz de-
clares that the only reason for estab-
fishing separate institutions was be-
cause the Japanese were crowding the
white children out of the schools in
certain districts of the city. When
asked as to the general tone of the
kilograms received from San Fran
cisco. Mayor SchmitZ said:
"The people of California don't give
rap about the school question, but
they are opposed to the admission of
Japanese coolies into this country"

New York.-At a dinner given
Monday night at the Waldorf
Astoria hotel under the auspices of
the laymen's missionary movement,

make a thorough investigation of the
subject.
A commission of representative
American business men who have
been for years contributors to the for
efgn missionary cause is appointed,

They will leave at an early date to
make personal inspection of the vari
Gus missionary establishments

that the list shall include 100 COM

sub-divided that all of the important
fields will be visited. Among the sub
jects to be investigated are the follow
ing:
The number of converts; the mum.
ber of genuine transformations Of

Evelyn Nesbit Thaw took the wit
ness stand in defense OF her husband
and told the story of her relations
With Stanford White, the famous ar
chitect who was killed by Harry
Thaw. 1t was the same story she
told Harry Thaw in Paris in 1913,
when he had asked her to become MS
wife-the confession of one who felt
there was an insurmountable barrier
to her ever becoming the bride oil
the man she loved.
The defense of Harry K. Thaw, un-
der the direction of Attorney Dolphin
M Delmas of California, began to
assume definite shape and testimony
was placed before the jury to the
effect that Stanford White had been
heard to make a threat to kill the
defendant, coupling the threat with
the display of revolver; that Thaw's
actions following the killing of White
,on the roof of Madison Square gnr'
den were considered by several eye
witnesses to have been 'irrational;'
that an uncle of the defendant was
insane; that Evelyn Nesbit Thaw
passed a note to her husband during
dinner at the Cafe Martin the eve
ming of the tragedy; that District At
torney Jerome has this note, and re-
fused, on the demand of the defense,
to introduce it in evidence.
Stanford White, not satisfied with
the wrongs he had heaped upon Eve
lyn Nesbit when she was a girl of 16.
tried to win her away from Harry
Thaw after her return from Europe,
and even pursued her after her mar
riage, according to the testimony of
the young wife Of Harry K. Thaw at
his trial. She also related an alleged
plot of White and Attorney Hummel
to blacken the character of Thaw-

HAD NO MORE USE FOR JACK.
Dog That Would Tell Stories Like
That Was Dangerous.

y,
| Although Jim's father was wealthy
he drew the line when Jim, who was
at Harvard, requested an addition OK
$1,000 to his annual allowance, but
the son was persevering. He wrote
father long letter, in which he de-
scribed the attractions of the institu-
tion, and he concluded the epistles
somewhat in this fashion:
They have added department to-
the university for the education of
dogs, and what / wish to suggest, dad, j.
is that you send Jack on, together
with the necessary tuition, $1,000, and (
at the end of the year he will be-
thoroughly versed in English, Spanish,
French and Latin"
The letter had it's effect and Jack,
who was the family bull pup, arrived
in due time, as did also the check
for his tuition. When Jim returned
home at the end of'the year the entire
family was at the railroad depot, but
he soon found they were waiting for
Jack.
They were disappointed though, for
Jack was not there. Then Jim's
tather TOOK his son aside.
Didn't I send you money enough
for Jacks tuition and expenses?" he,
asked.
Jack; oh yes, jack" replied Jim
II was going to tell you about him.,
dad. You see, from the moment Jack.
arrived at Harvard he made a hit.
He pitched right into the studies, took
the medal in Latin, led his class in
French and was proficient English,
scholar within two weeks. Anal
among the boys Jack was leader"
The son paused a moment.
Go on" urged his father.

he turned to me.
Jim he said, our college days
are over and we must now knuckle
down to hard work, so let's have
little drink Well, we had a drink,
father; in fact, we had several drinks.
for Jack was popular among the other
passengers in the buffet car and he
was setting up the drinks for all. But
Jack was drinking highballs, and y
guess he drank too much. At any
rate, he took me to one side after
awhile.
Jim he said, I don't like TO men,
ton this to you, but l suppose it is my
duty to do so. Now, that old man OF
yours. OF course, / don't like to
knock. but you see while you were
spending your first three years at col
lege, had an opportunity to observe
the actions of your father. Now, Jim,
while you were away and while your
mother was absent from home, the old
man used to give wine to chorus girls
and there was general high jinks at
the house.
When Jack told me this, dad" con-
tinued the son, Il became so angry
with him that l just grabbed him by
the neck and threw him from the car
