Territorial Superintendent j. e.
Clark, of Santa Fe, spent a half day
visiting the different grades Monday.
In the evening he made an address
to the patrons of the schools on the
condition of the schools in New Mex
leo.
Since the Superintendent and teach
ers have started the reform along the
line of tardiness, there mas been an
improvement of 100 per cent in the
matter in the last two weeks. We
are determined to reduce this very
bad practice to a minimum. Perhaps
one of the most ingenious measures
taken for the suppression of tardi-
ness is that of Mrs. Beck, teacher of
the second primary. She placed the
matter in the hands of the children
themselves with an appeal to their
valor as soldiers. The pupils of the
room were divided into two compa-
MES and elected their own captains.
Chester Donovan and George Puckett,
Jr, are the captains. and the contest
is for a prize to the company that
is charged with the fewest tardy
marks. TIE plan seems to be win
ner with the little folks, though it
might not work so well with larger
pupils
The literary society of the Hign
school will render program Satur-
day night at the Central School
building. A small admission fee will
be charged to raise a fund for some
expense they have incurred recently.

BATTLESHIP FLEET
HAVING A GAY TIME OF IT.


Pultas Arenas, Feb. 6.-The Strait
of Magellan social gaities in connec-
tion with the presence OF the Ameri-
can Fleet continues unabated and tne
Americans are trying to repay the
hospitality of their Chilean hostess
and the Chiieans are striving con-
stantly to put their visitors further
in their debt. 1t was originally plan
ned to have the fleet leave here last
evening but the departure was delay
ed until tomorrow in order to give
the Americans more time in which to
repay the hospitality of the Chi1ieans.
The health of Rear Admiral Evans,
who is at Rio Janeiro suffering with
rheumatism, is improving steadily.
The fleet will leave Friday night at
eleven o'clock. The torpedo fleet will
accompany the battle ships through
the strait as far as Cape Hillar at
the west end, from which point the
smaller vessels will take the inside
passage to the north. At Valparaiso
the fleet will steam close inside and
salute the town. The Chilean cruiser
Chacabuco will precede the fleet out

MINE WORKERS NOT
GOING INTO POLITICS.

Indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 6.-John
Mitchell, president of the United Mine
Workers, when asked today regarding
the rumor that there had been inaug
urated during the recent miners con-
vention a movement to endorse the
candidacy of certain aspirants for the
presidency of the United States and
few other political Offices, stated
hat there was no foundation for the
-umor. He admitted, however, that
the members of the Miners Union
and all trade unionists affiliated with
the American Federation of Labor
were interested actively in the cleo
ton to all executive, judicial and ad-
ministrative Offices of men known to
be sympathetic with the reasonable
demands of the wage earners of the
country. "It follows, therefore" said
Mitchell, '.that they would oppose the
candidacy of aspirants for political
honors who are known to be unsym-
pathetic or antagonistic to the labor
movement. This activity, however, is
not a partisan movement"

New York, Feb. 6.-Search was con-

been in the city since Monday and

of North America, his home mortgag.
ed and in addition attached to cover
the amounts sued for, his accounts
in several New York banks attached
and his consolidated steamship COM
pany in the hands of receivers, his
holdings in bank stock greatly depre-
ting his relations with banks, he
faced a condition which might have
appalled, any man. National Bank ex-
aminer, Charles A. Hanna, who is in
charge of the National Bank of North
America, announced he was informed
Morse had probably gone to Europe
or had departed elsewhere for an in
definite period. Mrs. Morse was at
her home in this city and no informa-
tion could be obtained from iler. AL
bert B. Boardman, attorney for Morse
is quoted today as saying Morse sail
ed for Europe, Saturday, for three
weeks, and had not anticipated such
crisis in his affairs.
Since the elimination of Morse from
the New York banking situation, he
has transacted most of his business
at his Fifth avenue residence. With
il the past ten days he has been be-
fore the county grand jury several
times to testify concerning certain
assets of the Provident Savings and
Life Assurance Society, which were
deposited with the bank with which
he was connected. The Federal grand
jury has also been Investigating the
conduct of these banks. That Morse
was greatly disturbed by these var
ious movements against him is indi-
Gated by the statement of Thomas E.
Wing, attorney for the receiver of
the National Bank of North America
who made affidavit that Morse said
to him with great agitation that he
had watched his securities drop far
below par and although he had kept
almost all his accounts margined AID
good but that he could not stand it
forever and he did not know what he
would do. Prior to the collapse of the
various enterprises in which he en-
gagged, Morse's fortune was estimated
as high as s2O, 1000, 900.
