Clear Lake, Aug. 11.-When the
Clear Lake band acting under orders
from the Commercial club refused to
obey mandate from Mayor HOLSTER
ordering the band to close the concert
at 8 o'clock Sunday night, the leaders
of the band, Messrs. kennedy and
Gady, were placed under arrest by
Marshal Hyde. They were charged
with disturbing the public worship and
We're led before the mayor where they
were arraigned. OF the two thousand
people in the park at the time, four
hundred followed the policeman as he
led the men under arrest to the house
of the mayor. They gave bond to ap-
pear for trial at o'clock Monday aft
ernoon and at that hour the hearing
was postponed until Thursday. During
all these proceedings the mob of 400
stood gathered about the house yell
ing, hooting and making the night
Mucous IN NdrlOuS ways.
Upon the return to the Lake Shore
Park, Mr.. Kennedy addressed few
words to the crowd from the band
stand. He said that the band would
discontinue the concert for the even
ing and stated that he was acting ac
cording to the solicitations of several
members of the Commercial club. 1t
was then that pandemonium broke
loose and the entire crowd gathered in
the park, jeered and howled. Many
tried to persuade the band to continue
but they stood firm in their resolve
not to play on Sunday evenings until
the proceedings started by the church
people against them were settled.
1t was shortly after this that the
audience assembled in the First Con-
grega tional church for Sunday even
ing union services, was left in utter
darkness Someone had cut the cleo
trio wires leading into the church and
the .incandescents blinked out without
warning. Lamps were at once pro-
cured and the services continued. The
conflict between the band and the
church faction is now even more bitter
than ever.

natives do not need to pay tuition to

Ecision the boy had left his parents for

view, it has extended thru a number

'it is further shown that the child's

Is no intent that the child is to return

ARE of the opinion that within the
