IT WAS ALL ONE WAY
The New School District of Which
Clifton is to BE Center
Endorsed.

Yesterday by vote that was all
one way. not a dissenting ballot be-
ing cast, the people of Clifton and
within a radius of five miles of that
place, decided that a new school dis
trict, to be known as the Clifton dis
trict. shall be created in Mesa coun-
ty. Much interest was taken and a
large vote polled and the proposition
carried absolutely unanimously.
The new school house will be locat-
ed at Clifton and the new district is
about five miles square Il Is made
up of large portion of the territory
of the present Garfield and Pear
Park districts. The west boundary
will go north of the Grand Valley
canal, through the center of Section
ten. The east boundary will go north
from the canal, at a point 80 rods
east of the east boundary of Section
IL.
The directors of the new district
are Chester Strain, chairman Owen
w. Foster, treasurer; and Mrs, Staple
ton, secretary.
A levy to provide a suitable mod
ern school building will probably be
made at once.
For long period efforts have been
made1 by prominent residents of the
Clifton section to get a school build
ing at Clifton and to make a change
in the boundary lines of the various
districts in that section of the county.
A plan was started once to have the
Pear Park and Garfield districts COM
bined and a school house located in
the center of the big district at Cliff
ton. This scheme could not be put
through and 1t was finally decided
best to organize a new district and
this has ben done. 1t is believed that
now fixed boundaries of the new dis
trict may be wldened further within
a short time.

JURY DISCHARGED.

brated Trial
JURY DISCHARGED.
Thaw Wild Over
Disappointment

NEW YORK, April 12.-(SpeciaI)
AT four O'Clock IN. Y. time) this af-
ternoon the jury in the Thaw trial
reported to Justice Fitzgerald that
they were absolutely hopelessIy di.
vided and the justice discharged the
jury from further service. They had
been deliberating for Al hours. As a
result the three months trial of the
celebrated case has amounted To
naught and the whole thing must be
fJdI1e over again unless the case
against Thaw is dismissed by the dist
rict attorney, which is not probable.
1t is mofficially announced at this
hour that the final ballots of the jury
showed n majority was against the
prisoner, seven for finding him guilty
of murder in the first degree, and five
for acquittal.
The hopeless disagreement of the
jury has almost set Thaw wild with
disappointment. He may be able,
however to gain his freedom on bail.
Evelyn Thaw and Thaw's aged mo-
ther broke completely down when
the jury was discharged and the large
crowd gathered about the court could
hardly keep from expressing in n
wild demonstration, its disappoint-
ment.
"Your honor IL is impossible for us
to agree" was the message Foreman
Smith sent Justice Fitzgerald at $3.50
O'Clock and at 4:10 the jury was dis
charged.
NEW YORK, ApiA t2.-(SpeciaD
100 p. m.-The Thaw jury is still
out and unable TO agree. Ii has been
out forty-one hours and holds the
record for length of deliberation in
any criminal case ever tried in New
York.
1t is said that the jury is as far
apart as ever. There are many rum
ors as to how the jury stands, the
two most reliable reports place the
standing at 10 TO 2 and at o to 3. One
of the jurors became i'll this morning
and it was feared for time that he
would have TO be separated from the
others but he grew better.
The most hopeful sign is that the
jury has given no intimation that IL Is
hopelessly divided. Justice Fitzger-
aid has not intimatcd how much
longer he will keep the jury together.
At noon today the jury ordered that
its lunch be sent to the jury room and
this is taken as an indication that the
jury is nearer agreed than Mt any time
since il took the case.
Thaw is still hopeful and nervy and
declares that the jury will yet acquit
him. He an Evelyn and other MEM
bers of the family remained in the
court room until midnight last night

The incident served as an unpleasant
reminder that much remained to be
accomplished towards the absorption

Some special significance is attached
