OPENING OF SCHOOLS.
High School Could Not Accommodate
 All Who Attended.

The public and parochial schools re-opened this morning. Although the increase in attendance was large, B. w. Tinker, superintendent. of the public schools, said this afternoon that everything for the most part was running smoothly. In few cases there is overcrowding as is always the case on the opening day but with. in a day or two the schools will be in very good working order.
 The high school has about forty pupils for whom it will have to find room. All the available room in the building is now in use. and it will be hard work to find places for the forty which could not be accommodated this morning. Year after year the attendance at High has grown until the building is now taxed tc its cap aeity. Every year it is more apparent that this city is in need of psvI high school building.
 Everything Is O K at DuggasI where one new room was opened. Al Bishop there is crowding in the fourth grade while the congestion is in the fifth at the Clay. The Croft is all right The eighth grades in Croft are much smaller than usual. the largest class numbering onIyl twenty. In the four upper grades al DTiggs there is lack of room. but with the completion of the new additiod this will be remedied. 3a-nard has plenty of room as has Mulcahy. Port. CT, Washington and hebsteT, three new rooms being opened in the last named building The only outside school heard from. Bunk-sr Hill. stat ed that the situation was vsr- satis- factory. The other schools Mr rink CT has not heard from. but in his opinion there is no lack of room II is not as yet possible to figure the sc- tua1 increase in attendance

The ordinance regulating employ
ment offices which it was hoped
would keep such places from doing
business in saloons has been side
stepped by simply building parti-
tions. Business has been resumed
in saloons by the Sun office, in the
Old Homestead saloon, SIG Main
av.; Adams, 420 Main av.; All Ma
tons, 4121a Front av.; Scandina-
vian-American, 209 Stevens St; j.
H. Travers & Co., Dempsey saloon;
Spokane Agency, PIT Stevens ST.,
and 503h Main av.; B. Nj. Deth-
ridge, 419 Main av.
All of those places are in sa-
looms and SO located on advice OF
Corporation Counsel Geraghty, who
this morning admitted that he had
been approached by agents and ask
ed that if by building partitions the
agents would be obeying the letter
of the law. Geraghty this morning
said that in order to shut out these
agents the ordinance would need
considerable amending, as it is
broad with this regard.
There seems to be a disposition
on the part of the administration to
be lenient with the employment
agents on account of their known
strength with laborers at the polls.
A very stringent ordinance was
passed last December but the
mayor refused to sign it after
delegation of 25 employment agents
had consulted him. The part of the
ordinance which seemed to hurt the
agents was that instead of paying
quarterly license of $50 they were
required to pay $3.50 for year. The
mayor consulted the corporation
counsel with the result that an
amendment was passed allowing
the old system of license payment
to remain in effect until Jan. l,
1908, and then change to $3.50 a
year, payable in a chunk.
AS operated now the employ
ment offices in saloons are just as
undesirable as though an Office
desk were placed opposite the bar.
Meanwhile a number Of employ.
ment agents against whom there
has been no complaint are wonder
ing whether it is worth while to
try to do business in conformity to
city ordinances.

(Scrpps News Association.)
NEW YORK, March 4.-The re-
port that Thaw's mother would
take the stand brought out in
creased crowds this morning. DR..
Evans was recalled. Jerome began
by asking if the fact that Thaw
showed GOODNESS after the shooting
and walked away calmly, holding
his gun over his head, was an evil
dence of insanity. Evans said it
indicates insanity in relation to ac-
companying facts and theatrical
manner of the killing.
Jerome tried unsuccessfully to
make Evans admit Thaw's words
and actions after the shooting indi-
Gated sanity. Evans evaded a direct
answer to all questions.
Jerome concluded the cross eX-
animation of Evans at noon and DR..
Wagner was called for cross eX-
animation.
Jerome launched into cross ex-
animation of Wagner marked by
technical discussions and almost
unintelligible juggling.

BREACH OF
PROMISE

Attorney John II. Roche today
filed with the clerk of the superior
court a complaint in which Libby
Huler asks judgment against Fred
E. Chapman,a wealthy st. Louis
contractor, for $4,000. The COM
plant alleges that Chapman would
not keep faith after promise of mar
riage. Later on, 1t Is understood,
Miss Huler will bring an action for
$4,000 against Chapman for al
legged betrayal. Her attorney Is
now preparing this complaint.
Chapman was about to marry a
st. Louis girl and Miss Huler al
leges that he told her she might
pretend to be his cousin and live
In the same house with him and
his wife. But the marriage will
probably never be consummated be-
cause Miss Huler told the other
woman her affianced husband
plans.
Both Miss Huler and Chapman
are still missing.

CARELESS SHOOTERS

A bullet penetrated the back

Schleppy, EGO Sixteenth av., yes
terday afternoon and struck Mrs.
Schleppy in the right arm just
above the elbow. The wound is not
serious. The bullet is 80 caibre
and came from a revolver. The po-
lice were notified and are of the

Not long ago a shot from re-
volver crashed through plate

careless boys.
