PLAUSIBLE DEFENSE

The defense is now having its inn
ings in Edmunds Act case of the Unit
ed States VS.. Hoo Yin and Lam Kan,
the latter being one of the prettiest
Chinese women seen in court for many
a day. Attorney Il. A. Douthitt intro
duced testimony in court this morn
ing to show the relations of the two
as simply existing on a basis of man
and servant. He placed the man on
the stand, who explained how he had
hired a house as the result of a let
ter which was placed in evidence, re-
ceived from his cousin II. w. Gun
who was at Pahala, and who wrote
that he was coming down and wanted
him to get a home for the two.
Needing some one to clean the
house, do the washing and cooking
and knowing that the woman was des
titute, having been ill-treated by hel
husband. and left without food, n,
employed her, paying her but 81 pc
week, saying that if sne could sc
other employment at better pay to do
so.
| He stated that he had sent her on
to rent the house, and showed tina
with his long hours as a tailor, work
ing from in the morning till 5:3
at night it was impossible for hir
to get away for this purpose. Their
was also a little sparring match be
tween Attorney DOuthitt and Jude
Quarles, who is acting as special pro
secutor with Assistant District Alto
ney Rawlins.

AF TERMATH OF
PSYCHIC CIRCUS
looutinued from Page oneJ

there were any, who could appreciate
the psychic circus, and to the con-
sternation of the neighbors. The story
is vouched for by hundreds and there
is indeed much serious consideration
due the phenomena.
Chairs jumped sidewise, pictures re-
moved themselves from the walls,
mirrors turned somersaults. keys found
their way out of drawers and took up
points of vantage on parlor tables,
knife and a corkscrew got saucy and
stuck themselves in kitchen table,
pieces of firewood fell from window
tops and flew about the lanais, plates
whizzed the heads of frightened
people and a sewing machine took
piece of cloth in It's teeth and was
about to start in sewing when the
lady of the house called it down.
From seven O'Clock yesterday morn
ing until seven O'Clock in the even
ing. later, the neighborhood was in a
panic. The house, according to all
reports, was bewitched. The people in
the house. Pecarick and his wife and
! the beautiful Spanish girl, were in the
midst of flying furniture, as were those
who butted in, while there were hun
dreds who sought admission to see the
show and who got cold rect while ap-
preaching. at sight OF some hurting
saucepan or stick of timber.
Such was the story told yesterday
to the priests who were hurriedly call
ed to the house to lay the ghosts and
who sprinkled holy water to scare
away the evil manifestations, or az
least to console the troubled inmates
of the house But the holy water
somehow, didn't take for the pheno'
mena persisted.
Women were weeping and hugglng
babes to their breasts, fearful that the
influence would reach to their homes
Some locked themselves in their hous-
es Members Of the police department
hurried to the scene, but were baffled
going away knowing less than wher
they arrived.
A newspaper reporter got hit in the
neck with a flying plate. A priest wa!
struck in the leg by stone or sticl
of wood. When priests and reporters
are assailed by unseen hands the sit
uation must indeed be serious.
But the great human demonstration
remained for this morning, Marvel

GLASGOW, September 1O.-A re-
markable scene was witnessed this at
,ternoon at the office of the City Coun-
ell. Crowds of the unemployed gath
cred in George square before the
Council convened and a delegation OF
twelve was admitted to the meeting.
The Councilmen received the delega-
ton by rising from their seats The
spokesman of the unemployed said
that never before had there been such
distress in Glasgow.
Every human unit" SAID this man,
'is entitled to food. We make no out
rageous request; we are only here TO
plead for the souls of men and women,
They demand work"
The Chancellor replied with deer
emotion. He said the Council had re-
ceived the delegation in spirit OF
good feeling and that he would do al
in his power to help those who needed
work. Large bodies Of troops were
held in reserve this afternoon in an
ticipation of rioting and attacks OF
property. The men, however, have de
cided to refrain from demonstrating
for one week.

SIX INCHES OF HAIL NEAR CITY
SPRINGS EARLY IN THE AZ
TERNooN TODAY.
Eastern Portion of City Affected, the
Storm in Business Section Being
Much Less Severe-Birds Killed,
Stock Pelted and Gardens Driven
Into the Soft Earth.

One of the worst hailstorms noted
in this section for years occurred this
afternoon, the eastern part of the city
suffering damage from beaten down
gardens and flooded cellars. The
storm was slight west of Fifth street,
some hail falling in the business sec
ton but hardly enough to cover the
ground. From about Fifth street east
ward TO a point a few hundred yards
above the city springs the storm was
more severe, there being not less than
six inches of hail about the city
springs, accompanied by a heavy down
pour OF rain.
Only Part of City Affected.
In the eastern part of the city, along
about Eighth street, which seemed TO
form the western line of damage, there
was much destruction of vegetation
and rain was forced under doors and
windows, doing some damage in that
diTlection. Further out toward the
springs there We're torrents of water

places, and a numbef of birds were
killed by the merciless pellets.

HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING BEING
HURRIED TO COMPLETION
FOR SCHOOL OPENING.
Contractor lnman Given One Week
More Time and Clark PeIton viii
Be Asked to Do Some Extra Work
on Second FIoor-Planning for
Handsome Hutton Grove School.

At the meeting of the board of edu-
cation yesterday afternoon, in session
when Tie Republican vent to press,
the high school building was inspected
and it was found that the contractor,
Mr.. Inman, would require about a
week longer to complete his work, he
being given that amount of time. At
the conclusion of Mr.. Inman's con-
tract Clark Pelton will be put to work
on the second floor doing some extra
work. The contractors for the heat
ing plant and the supplies for the
school rooms will be permitted to COM
plete their contracts. The building is
meeting the requirements of the board
in the matter of detail work, and will
be, when completed, one of the hand
soonest high school buildings in the
state.
Sketch of New School.
The board received from the archi-
tect, William Dubois of Cheyenne, a
sketch CT the school building to be
erected in the Hutton grove portion
Of the district, provision for the build
ing of which was made at the last an
nual meeting of the district. The
sketch provides for a handsome build
ing, with a seating capacity for twenty
pupils. a neat portico, supported by
two pillars, in front, and with suitable
closets. coal houses, and other aces
series for a modern rural school build
ing. AS soon as the plans have been
drawn the contract will be awarded
and the building gotten ready for the
opening of school in the early autumn.
New Walks Approved.
The board visited the East Side
school and heartily approved the ce-
ment walks leading from the streets
to each of the entrances of the build
ing. Some proposed changes in the
Interior Of the building we're dis
cussed, but action was deferred. as
the changes will necessitate a greater
outlay than the board had at first fig
ured on.

taking in other business blocks as the
occasion arises, thus furnishing a SUP
ply pipe in front of each business house
regardless of the fact that the new
ordinance will provide that no service
pipes shall be carried across the al
leys. A condition in the residence
portion which would work no hardship
could not be made always to fit the
business section, where many of the
business houses face on either Grand
venue or Thonrburgh street, the bus
mess houses occupying fractional
parts of lots, sometimes three or four
on one lot.
A Flexible Ruling.
The matter is presenting some diff
ficulties, City Attorney McMurray max
ing it plain to the council hat a rigid
ordinance will not be satisfactory
an ordinance to be just all around
should make a discrimination between
the thickly built-up business district,
where each business house shall be
supplied with all the water it can use
legit.mately, and the thinly settled
residence portion, where a regulation
providing for the combining of the wa
ter pipes to the house lot would work
no hardship. The conference OF Tues
day evening IS intended to bring the
council and the. business men to a
thorough understanding of the desire
of one to be just and the need of the
