GETAWAY Or
STATE JUNkET
TO JAMESTOWN

The steamship Dorchester OF the Mer-
chants and Miners line sailed Saturday
night for Norfolk with the state party
bound for the jamestown Exposition. The
getaway" was delayed and the delay
was said to be due to the fact that an
extra load OF freight had to be got aboard.
but whether the freight was wet or dry
was not stated. AS the weather was not
entirely clear, Il may be that the freight
was wet.
The steamer wa slikened by a wag to
new Noah's ark, as It was filled up by
selected ones whom II was hoped would
he sawed from the next 10 days ana nights
OF political storm, but that II differed
from the real ark. as the specimens Sc
lected by the modern Noah were not
equally paired. there being but one Pro-
hibitionist, enough Democrats TO be no.
tced and the majority Republicans. An
other comparison to the ark was that as
Noah's flagship had every allotted space
on board filled with animals, 40 about
every stateroom on the Dorchester was
set Off to some members OF the state
party.
The wag said that when the steamer
left her dock he looked for a dove TO be
released. but as none appeared bearing
an olive branch he was inclined to be-
lieve that the Republicans might drop the
Democrats overheard or drown them on
shipboard. AS many OF the party had
been there before. they were looking
forward TO great time TO be accorded
them, and most OF them couldn't see
why Phohibltionist should be I'm the
party anyway. as members OF that party
have too dry way OF entering into po-
lltical deal.
After the boat left, a dinner was served
at o'clock. with the full list OF passen-
gers present. Gov. Higgins. his STAFF and
the jamestown exposition commissioners
were seated at the captains table.
But few changes were noted In the per-
sonnel of the party. Representative Ray
8. Lewis OF Block Island found business
too great 10 allow him to take the trip.
Judge Nathan NJ. Wright secretary OF the
Republican state central committee also
found II inconvenient To go. William III.

Der who was missed.
Three new names were added TO the list
OF guests of the governor. They are David
j. Barry OF Providence, Representative
Edward +. Butler OF Pawtucket and Will
liam T. Leach OF Pawtucket
The governors STAFF and all the military
men were in full dress uniform, and pre-
sented a pretty sight at the dinner table.
Capt. Anderson OF the Dorchester, who
sat at the head OF the head table with the
governor and the highest officials in the
party assumed charge OF dinner and act
ed as an impromptu toastmaster when
ever that official was needed.

N. Y. CITY TO HAVE
100000 PUPILS

New York. Sept 9,--The doors OF tho
public schools open today for the new
school year
An unusual feature OF the opening day
is that It happens TO fall on the Jewish
New Year, and this means a great deal to
many thousands OF children OF the or
thodox Hebrews. In many OF the East
Side schools where teachers and pupils
are OF the Jewish faith there will be very
little going on.
In many other schools the attendance
will be affected by the holiday. IL Is ex-
pected that In some cases Jewish chill
dren will go TO school for the purpose of
getting n seat and of being registered and
then will be excused for the day.
In the elementary schools the attend
ance will very likely number about half
n million within n few days. According
TO official reports. the attendance on Sept
10 last year was 4S2.7g The board Of edu-
cation Will probably give out figures OF
enrolment amounting 10 100000 or more.
