these showing wide satin band or a
narrower band headed by several still
narrower ones.
Taffeta, either plain or fancy. has a

The Mexican National railroad is
to be extended from Durango to the
Pacific Coast, and will pass through
the heart Of an immense timber tract.
This railroad is part of the system
now administered by the government,
which has acquired majority Of the
stock. 1t Is to be hoped that the
government will follow up this move
by taking control Of the forests and
administering them scientifically.
Many Americans hope for relief from
lumber scarcity in the United States
by importations from Canada and
Mexico; but this relief can be only
temporary, unless these countries
also will conserve their forests in a
scientific manner. II is to be hoped
they will do this, rather than allow
American investors to devour them
hastily.

OFFICERS CO FROM
PILLAR TO POST
NEW CITY HALL ANNEX THEIR
ONLY HOPE
Tenants of Municipal Building Sit Un-
easily, Fearing Notice to Seek
Temporary Quarters in
Office Buildings

| With the decision of the board of
public works and the building commit
tee of the city council to erect three
story annex to the city hall indepen-
dent of but adjoining the old city hall
on the north, the necessity of some city
officials for finding quarters in down
town office buildings may be obviated.
Several officials, such as the city cleo
trician and the civil service commits
sion, had been given notice to Vacate
by June 30. The public library read
ing room had also got moving orders.
These three institutions occupy space
on the third floor of the city hall. The
city engineer needs the space used by
the reading room and it will probably
be moved to the library in the Laugh
lin building. The other officers hope,
however, to get a three months eX-
tension of time, when it is hoped to
have the annex completed so that they
can find quarters there.
The civil service commission has been
buffeted about several times and has
negotiations under way for space in a
nearby new bank building, but is the
tenancy will be only three months, as
seems probable the commission may
be allowed to stay.
The decision rests largely with the
board of public works and the city at
torney, who needs this space for the
law library of Judge Works which the
city has just acquired under lease. 1t
VIII then form continuation of his
suite. 1t is possible that the library
may temporarily be distributed over
the third floor in various odd corpers
until the annex is completed, thus saw
ing the city at least $75 month rent
for the civil service commission alone.
Other offices in the city hall now on
the second and first floors need space
for additional clerks and storage room,
which will be afforded by the annex.
The front of the new structure will
be ornamental and in harmony with
the city hall, but the rest of it will be
of cheap construction so that it can
be torn down if the city wants to sell
the entire city hall property.

ROBBERS VICTIM
THROWN IN JAIL
Police Believed Him Drunk and
Locked Him in Tank All Night.
Released in the
Morning

Careless handling of prisoners in the
city Jail, which in the past has been
the cause of several deaths, has re-
suited in another unpleasant incident
for the officials there.
Manuel Ross, arrested by Patrolmen
Erwin and Block early yesterday
morning and sent to the station on a
charge of drunkenness, was found yes
terday to be the victim of robbers, and
to have been assaulted and beaten by
them.
This fact was not established until
Ross was taken to court for trial. There
he told his story-the story the police
would not hear ten hours earlier, and
was given his liberty by Police Justice
Austin.
He said early yesterday morning he
was found by the officers wandering
about the streets in a helpless condi-
tion. He had no shoes or hat, and in
stead of getting an explanation from
him the patrolmen simply bundled him
into the wagon and sent him to the sta
tion.
There the man, still dazed from the
effects of a blow on the head, was
stood up against the desk, searched
and thrown into the drunk tank. Had
he been t. .en to the hospital and re-
vived detectives could have been sent
out and the holdup men w--o robbed
him traced by the officers.
Instead the man lay in the drunk
tank all night. There he begged and
plea-ed for some one to whom he
might tell his story, but, instead of
coming to his assistance, the injured
man was allowed to stay there until
taken to court yesterday morning.

FINDS BOYS GUILTY OF
PREMATURE CELEBRATION

Justice Rose, sitting in the juvenile
court Saturday morning found Horace
Kengel, Harry Curland and Theodore
Lingel guilty of violating the city or
dinance against the premature celebra-
ton of the Fourth of July. They were
told to appear for sentence on July G.
Horace Theodore and Henry thought
it would be great sport to have fire
works on Cambria street while the
school exercises were being held. They
started in to "shoot up" the street in
true wild west fashion. Such a conn
motion was started that the graduation
ercises were disturbed and a police
officer was sent for.
The boys said they were sorry and
would not do it again.
