SAYS JANIT0R GETS MORE
THAN BEST-PAlD TEACHER

Miss Rose Hardenburg, principal of
the Sentous street school, has taken
up the cudgel for higher salaries for
teachers, and she presents arguments
in favor of higher wages that carry
conviction.
According to Miss Hardenburg the
janitor of the Sentous street school is
receiving $S a month more than the
highest paid teacher in the school.
1.-THE teachers are expected to live
in the better class of society,"" she
said, "and yet they do not receive
enough to keep them in the state which
the public seems to demand. Hotel
and living expenses have increased
from 80 to so per cent within the last
ten years, until now this one item
alone in first class hotel would con-
sumo the teachers monthly wage.
when the teachers get enough to
live in better circumstances we can
expect to see the standard of the de-
partment raised materially. Their use
fulness would be increased to such an
extent that private schools which are
really contrary to Americas democrat
ic principles, would be done away with.
after ten years work in the de-
partment as 1t now exists the average
teacher loses all stimulus and becomes
almost an automaton, a hindrance to
herself and of little real use to the
school,"

AGAINST
SUSPENSION ORDER
Railway Postal Clerks Believe Organ
izer Has Not Been Treated
Fairly by superintend-
ent Stevens

A meeting of Los Angeles railway
postal clerks was held yesterday to
protest against the suspension of Hugh
G. Shaug, who was dropped from the
government service on account of his
activity in organizing the Brotherhood
of Railway Postal Clerks. He is
charged with violation of the postal
rules and of President Roosevelts di-
rect orders in attempting to establish
the new order. The clerks say the
service will be completely demoralized
unless Shaug is reinstated.
Shaug runs between Los Angeles and
San Francisco. He was suspended by
superintendent Stevens after several
warnings, who asks him to show cause
why he should not be discharged for
encouraging discomfort and insurrec-
tion among the postal employees, and
for collecting funds to carry on the
work of influencing legislation by con-
gress."
Shaug insists that the new brother
hood is to be in no sense a labor union.
Its constitution, he says, expressly
states that 1t shall not be affiliated
with or aided by organized labor In
any way, and that no strike shall ever
be called to carry out the purposes of
the order. The clerks to man deny
that their order is anything more than
social and fraternal, with the purpose
of securing legislation which win al
low them to petition congress for more
pay and better hours.

BOYLE HEIGHTS
WANTS NORMAL
w. H. Workman Says School Belongs
to Los Angeles and Small For-
tune Was Raised for 1t in
the Early Days

Boyle Heights will make a bid for the
location of the normal school, provid-
ing the present site is sold.
At meeting Saturday night of the
Boyle Heights Improvement association
a resolution was adopted declaring
against the location of the normal
school outside of Los Angeles and
favoring Boyle Heights as the best dis
trct in which the school could be built
In event the present site is sold, as
provided by the bill which the governor
signed a few days ago, the choice of
several sites on Boyle Heights will be
offered the state.
William H. Workman yesterday de-
clared himself most emphatically op-
posed to the removal of the normal
school outside the city limits of Los
Angeles.
THAT school belongs to Los Angeles
and it should be kept within the city,"
said Mr.. Workman. twenty-five years
ago the people of Los Angeles sub
scribed $4,000 for the purchase of the
present site, which now doubtless will
be sold for $500,0O0. OF course $4,000 does
not seem to be a large amount of
money, and 1t is not in comparison to
the sum which the site purchased for
that amount will now realize, but a
quarter of a century ago $4,000 was quite
a fortune and it required weeks of
hard work on the part of a committee
of patriotic citizens to raise that
money. The normal school is a part of
Los Angeles, and 1t should never be
taken outside the limits of the city. If
the present site is sold l would favor
Boyle Heights as the new location,
and at the proper time the choice Of
several sites will be made"

taken geraniums as her special study
and these flowers in all phases and
hues-over which the fasteners. go
wild and which the Californian looks
on with little short of contempt-have
been painted by Mrs. Evarts with such
art that they have commanded the ad-
miration and respect of all.
Red geraniums have been the de-
light and despair of artists and have
been given a special study by Mrs.
Evarts, who painted exclusively in
reds three years. The high lights of
these blossoms are several degrees
higher than the brightest red paint,
and to secure this effect without run
ming into pinkish tones has been the
victory of long study. Her extensive
study has resulted in an intimate
knowledge of the various varieties, and
Mrs. Evarts now holds a unique posi-
tion among local artists for her work
| in these flowers.
Geraniums in all shades and hues
numbering ten canvases will be showr
by Mrs. Evarts, including a unique
, study of geranium leaves without the
| flowers. Each study seems of more in
terest than the last, until one is almost
| bewildered by the array of beauty.
This will be the first exhibition ex-
clusively of geraniums, and society is
looking forward to viewing the work
of this talented Los Angeles artist.

Confusion of Names

Owing to the similarity of the names of
the two corporations the report tele-
graphed from New York that the Ameri-
can Tobacco company was negotiating for
;he absorption of the United Cigar Manu-
facturers company has led to a misappre-
hension as to the United Cigar Stores
company.
tinct," said a local representative of the
United Cigar Stores company yesterday,
"The Manufacturing company came into
existence after our chain of stores was
started five years ago In the Manufac-
turing company are combined a number
of factories making we'll known brands of
cigars. The company took the first two
words of our name-United Cigar-and
thereby occasioned an unfortunate con-
fusion in the public mind The Cigar
Stores company Is not the object Of the
reported negotiations, It's an entirely
different concern The United Cigars are
not selling out to anybody, or think Of it.,
because they occupy field of their own.
They own no factories of their own, but
get all the advantages of such owner
ship by taking the total output Of dozens
of them, which produce brands of cigars
for which there Is a general demnnd all
over the country. The company that Is
being talked of Is solely in the manufac-
turing business. 1t has no retail output"

Mrs. Sidney Hendricks, charged with
burglary, was held to answer to the
superior court under $1,000 bonds when
arraigned in police court yesterday
morning.

taken in charge. The woman is said
to have at that time accused her hus-

and has been married five years. 1t

her marriage her husband began teach
ing her to steal, and that since that
