SUFFERING PEOPLE

LONDON, Sept. 10.-Wholly In
different until within the last few
days to the widespread misery and
suffering among the hop pickers
of the Kent country, London au-
thorities have at last been brought
to a realization of the terrible con-
ditions and the overwhelming diff
ficulties of these people, and a
movement is now on foot to aid
them.
Women and children by the
hundreds have been sleeping in the
bitches, too poor to take lodging in
the most humble quarters.
An uninterrupted rain of 16 days,
which ruined the hop crop and
threw the thousands out of employ
ment, has caused untold suffering,
Many men and women were found
with their clothes entirely gone
and sleeping on the wet ground.

MAKES CHARGE
Of FRAUD
M. II. WHITEHOUSE FILES AL
LEGATIONS AGAINST THURS
TON DANIELS IN FIGHT
OVER GARLAND AVENUE
GRADE.

NJ. H. Whitehouse, real estate
dealer, makes a serious charge
against Thurston Daniels, former
lieutenant governor of Washington,
in a petition filed today with City
Clerk Fleming. He charges that
Daniels secured possession of the
40 acres comprising Monterey park
through fraudulent representations
of its value to two women in the
east. who were then the owners.
Whitehouse says Daniels represent
ed the property as being worth
only half its actual value and
bought it on this basis.
Whitehouse and Daniels are
neighboring property owners on
North Division street, and are sepa-
rated by Garland avenue. Recently
Whitehouse had the grade of Gar
land avenue changed so as to bene-
fit his holdings. Daniels then went
before the city council with a petit
ton asking that the old grade be
established, and made a few I'M
complimentary illusions to White
house, among them being that he
represented nonresident property
owners and that this ground de-
served no consideration because of
its being outside the city.
These charges, which White
house Indignantly denies, resulted
in the petition just filed scoring
Daniels. Whitehouse challenges
Daniels to a joint discussion of the
merits of the question before the
city council.

EVEN CLEVELAND BOARD
F0RCETS AWFUL LESSON

The singular apathy of boards of
education toward affording pupils
every possible protection from fire
and panic has been locally demon
strated by the failure of the Spo-
kane board to comply with legal
regulations in half years time.
Refusal to comply instead of
failure to is the proper term, as
there is no excuse for the boards
negligence other than its willing
ness and desire to slight precau-
tons SO far as possible, evidently
for the purpose of devoting as
much money as obtainable to 9TH
er more importan" items.
But what reason can be assigned
for the Cleveland board RESPONSE
BILE for the Collinwood disaster fol-
lowing an even more negligent
course? The following makes al
most conclusive the idea that the
board of education system should
be abolished entirely:
CLEVELAND, Sept. 10.-Six
months ago, 172 children were
burned to death in the Collinwood
school.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1908-09-10

The causes of the disaster and
the loss of life were investigated.
Chief Wallace of the Cleveland
department reported that he did
not think the disaster would have
been SO great had it not been for
the yestibule doors and the parti.
tions on which they were swung
These blocked the children in a
trap when they tried to fee from
the burning building.
The disaster was followed by &C
ton by the Cleveland board of edu.
cation. Changes were ordered to
make fire less likely; to make es-
cape more sure.
Six months have passed and the
Cleveland schools opened Tuesday
for the new term. Investigation
shows that some of the buildings
are without fire escapes. Most OF
them have emergency doors.
But in a great many of them the
inner doors, condemned by Chief
Wallace, still stand.
In others, besides the vestibules,
pupils must make turns in narrow
Railways to find the outer doors.

WANTS DIVORCE FOR LITTLE
THING LIKE THAT

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 10.-Alleging
that her husband threatened to kill
her and all the members of her
family, and created disgraceful
scene at her mothers home on the
night of their wedding, Mrs. Hulda
Miller, a bride of less than a month,
filed suit for divorce in the cir
cut court.
She says she was married to
John Robert Miller, 3709 Carter
avenue, on August Is, 1908, and
separated from him the next morn
ing.
The night of the wedding, she
says, her husband acted like a
raging fiend. Entering the house
with a revolver, he terrified the
wedding guests, and shooting her.
she says he flourished the revol-
yer and repeatedly threatened to
kill her mother and sisters.
When they were about to retire
she says her husband insisted on
allowing two of his male friends to
sleep in the same bedroom with
them and when she protested she
says he took her to a hotel.
In the hotel she says he scOlded
her all night, treated her in the
most brutal manner and terrified
her by his violent actions.
The next morning, she says she
left him and went back to her
mother. Her husband followed her,
she says, and ordered her to re-
turn to him. She tearfully refused
and then he drew the revolver
again and made threats, she claims.
She says her husband has disap'
peared and she does not know his
whereabouts,

BOY AGE IS YEARS A
NATIONAL CHAMPION

The amazing success of young
Jay Gould at racquets has been out
done by the performance of Edward
Clark at the less strenuous but
equally scientific game of rogue.
Gould won the worlds champion.
ship at racquets when II years old;
Clark, at Is, holds the national
championship at rogue.
Rogue is a game very popular in
many sections Of the east. 1t is
much like croquet, being played
with mallet, ball and arches. But
the rough turf of the croquet
ground is replaced by a dirt or
clay surface, level as a billiard
table; the ball is of hard rubber,
the arch is barely wide enough to
permit the ball to slip through and
the court is surrounded by a
wooden border, lined with rubber,
which permits carom shots equal to
those made on any billiard table.
Jump" shots are more common
than in billiards. The arches are
placed somewhat different from
croquet arches, also.
Young Clark learned the game
four years ago, and made amazing
progress. He won the champion
ship with ease in the recent ma
tional rogue tournament at Nor
witch, Conn, taking II out OF IA
games, all of them with grown men
who have been playing the game
for years.
Clark has two younger brothers,
aged IA and /, both of whom are
crack nlaYerS.

Special Correspondence to The Press
OMAHA, Sept. 10.-What was
the motive for the killing of DR..
Frederick T. Rustin, one of the best
known surgeons in the west. Yale
graduate and foot ball captain, club
man, prominent in society, high
roller and good fellow"
Who fired the shot?
And did the leaden pellet which
struck him down at his own thresh-
old come from within the house or
without?
These questions puzzle all Oma-
ha. They BATTLE the police. They
may never be answered.
Rustin was discovered by his
wife sitting wounded in a chair on
the front porch of his residence at
8 o'clock one morning. She had
been awakened by the sound of a
pistol shot.

He muttered incoherently at

/ Developments show that for sew

AND
STEEL PLANS
TWO SETS TO BE ORDERED
FOR MONROE STREET IN OR
DER TO DETERMINE DIFFER
ENCE IN COST.

In order to arrive at a definite
basis for computing the difference
between the cost of concrete and
steel bridge at Monroe street, Coun-
Gilman r. l.. Dalke will introduce a
resolution in the city council to-
night directing the city engineer
to prepare plans for both styles of
bridges. Mr.. Dalke favors CON
crete, provided the cost will not
exceed that of steel by over $780,
600. In view of the estimate OF
S325,000 for a concrete bridge at
Monroe street made by Professor
Burr, Councilman Dalke thinks the
difference in the two styles OF
bridges will be less than 100000.
He feels pretty sure that a con-
crete bridge at Monroe street can
be built for less than the otfhand
estimate of s706,000 made by Engi-
neer Ralston. Mr.. Dalke believes
the sentiment among all members
of the city council is favorable to
concrete, provided the difference in
cost over steel is not too great.
City Commissioner Witherspoon
had intended to have a resolution
of this kind introduced Eefore the
board of public works, but con-
Guided to defer action until after
the consideration of Mr.. Dalke's
resolution by the city council. Mr..
Witherspoon says plans for a con-
crete bridge on East Olive avenue
should be prepared and bids re-
ceived before any further action is
taken on the steel bids recently
submitted. Mr.. Witherspoon be-
lieves that definite figures should
be obtained on the relative cost OF
concrete and steel before further
discussion of the bridge question
takes place.
