children of splendid intellectual
endowments are sometimes thought
to be stupid" says an observing
teacher. THE sharp child who learns
a lesson in the shortest possible time,
who is first with his answers in the
mental arithmetic class, who can pro-
duce dates and geographical names
on demand, is the one the teacher
loves, and most commonly he is the
one who in after life goes on the safe
road to competence, but he is not one
of those whose thoughts will be treas
ured by the world long after he has

BAIL REFUSED SCHMITz
LIKE OTHER CRIMINALS
Judge Orders San Francisco's
Mayor in Custody Of Sheriff.

Says Ruef Will Get Ten Years, While
Schmitz Will Stay in Prison For
Life-Ruef's Confession Con.
victed Schmitz.


San Franciso. Mayor Eugene E.
Schmitz, convicted by jury of the
crime of extortion, asked Judge
Dune for release on bail until sen.
tence is pronounced.
In refusing bail, Judge Dunno
said.
In every criminal case after con
viction by jury the defendant is or.
dered into the custody of the sheriff.
Any other disposition of this de-
fendant certainly would have to be
preceded by proper and formal
showing That is a consideration |
should not even allow the prosecu-
ton to waive
After bail had been denied,
Schmitz left in the company of Dep
uty Sheriff Don Beban.
New York City.-James D. Phelan.
former Mayor of San Francisco, who
has been staying in the Waldorf.
Astoria, will soon return to San
Francisco, where it is expected he
will be asked to take charge again of
the government
The conviction of Schmitz,' said
Mr. Phelan, is the best thing that
has ever happened in San Francisco.
1t means that our beautiful city will
go ahead, rejuvenated and rehabili-
tated and fulfil her glorious des-
tiny.
"Schmitz will get ten years on this
conviction. If he gets ten years
apiece on the others his sentence will
total $500 years, and that ought to
hold him for the rest of his natural
life. He will appeal, but the appeal
will avail him nothing. The prompt
action of the jury in convicting him
on the weakest indictment of the $50
found against him shows that the
evidence of his guilt is as conclusive
ly proven in law as it has been in
the minds of the men who know of
his grating methods.
Unfortunately, Schmitz will re-
main Mayor until his appeal has
been decided. Abe Ruef had law
passed that will bring this about,
but it will save him only for a few
weeks longer. While the corrupt
Board of Supervisors has the APP
pointment of his successor, the SUI
pervisors all have indictments over
their heads, and they will appoint
an honest and efficient man because
they can't help themselves.
II do not want the Office of Mayor
again. There are plenty of good men
in San Francisco capable of filling it,
and with Schmitz and Ruef out of
the way the city ought to get ahead
in leans and bounds
"Ruef in my opinion will get off
with about ten-year sentence.
Leniency will be shown him because
of his services in the prosecution of
Schmitz. He will never again WELD
any power or influence in San Fran
cisco, and for this every decent man
on the Pacific Coast is deeply thank
full"
