Secretary Taft the Most Conspicuous Wis.,
 itor at the Commencement
There Will Be Meeting There On Friday of the Present President and His Successor In the White House.

New Haven, June 22.-Secretary Taft returned to Yale, his alma mater, today to attend the reunion of the class of '7S. Although it was his in tention to join his classmates, he found himself the chief guest in the com mencement exercises and had scarcely entered the shadow of the university buildings before he took up his duties as a member of the corporation.
 Taft reached the city at 1 o'clock unaccompanied. Mrs. Taft and Master Chas. Taft having reached here on an earlier train and gone to the some on Prospect street of MT. and Mrs. w. w. Farnam( whose guests they will be until Thursday.
 Taft was met at the station by a delegation from his class. After an exchange of greetings, he stepped into an automobile and was whisked away to the Edwards House, where about forty of the seventy eight men were ready to extend a welcoming hand.
 After a short stay, the secretary went to Woodbridge Hall, where the corporation was in session. He left the meeting a little later, and walked across the campus commons. and, pass ing in. met with a cheer from those who first got a glimpse of him. His advent was just at the conclusion of an address by eX-SenatOr SpoOner of Wisconsin.
 The entire alumni rose and cheered the secretary. Later MT. Taft spoke to the young men. The secretary sub sequently returned to the corporation meeting, and at its conclusion donned the robes of a doctor of law and walked to the law school As he entered the auditorium John W. Foster was mak- ing an address. but the audience arose and cheered wildly.
 At the close of these exercises. the secretary, accompanied by Professor Hadley and escorted by the faculty of the medical school, walked to College Hall. where he attended the exercises. On the steps of Osborne Hall were gathered groups of Yale men back to the reunion. Most of them were in fantastic garb. and these Justify cheered him. At College Hall the sec retary was joined by his brother, Hor- ace D. Taft of Watertown, Conn, who accompanied him to Woodbridge Hall, where the exercises were ended.
 President Roosevelt and Mir. Taft will both witness the boat race on Thursday on the Thames. This inter csting and important fact necessitates a change in MT. Taft's plans the lat ter part of the week. Taft had ar ranged tentatively to join the presi- dent at oyster Bay on Friday He was to be accompanied to oyster Bay by General Luke Wright, who will sue ceed him as secretary of war.

Oyster Bay, June 22.-In practical socluSion today and to a great extent free from official cares. President Roosevelt at SaSamcre Hill, spent the hottest hours reading and attending only to such official business as re quired immediate attention when Secretary Loeb called. Late in the day the president took his daily exer- else.
 The president will say nothing re garding the report from Boston that he interceded with President Elliot of Harvard. in behalf of two members of the Harvard crew who were dismissed.
 From Loeb nothing could be learned regarding his possible appointment by the subcommittee as chairman of the national committee. It is believed that during Taft's visit some course of ac- ton in the matter will be decided upon.

TALK TO FLEDGLINGS
Secretary Taft Addresses the Gradual inq Class of the Law School.

New Haven, June 22.-Dean Henry Wade Rogers presided at the luncheon at the alumni law school. The first speaker, was ex-United States Sen atOr Spencer of Wisconsin. He paid a tribute to Taft as a Yale man, "abundantly equipped to hold the very highest office in the gift of the peo- pie"
 He then addressed himself to the young men present, about to be grad uated, saying: T want to impress upon you that while you may differ on pol itical questions there is something which rises above politics. something which lawyers cannot afford to diff fer on. The lawyer under oath owes to the country and himself to stand on the firm basic principle of popu- lar government. He must believe Nin the essentials of government, the three coordinate branches, executive, legis- lative and judicial Each must keep within its bounds or a representative government cannot exist. When you find a government in which the three branches become subordinate to the will of the executive, popular govern ment has ceased to exist. I speak in an impersonal way. The last hope of liberty and government is an upright, fearless incorruptible judiciary. If, after a lapse of time you find a pOli- tical body advocating any measure which seeks to impair the foundation of the government laid down by its founders as you value your oath of office. fight it. The three coordinate branches of the government ought not to be forgotten for a moment.
 T am glad the next president of the United States will be a lawyer. a law yer who knows the constitutional Iim- itations of the executive and other branches of the government. Mind you I do not say wh othe lawyer will be-"

 Estelle Ely, 13 days old, died in the county hospital of heat prOstration.

She is suffering from internal injuries which may prove fatal.
 The mad-dog scare was due to the unusual number of attacks made by vicious dogs within the last few days. Chief of Police Shippy said tOiay that ten cases have come under his notice since Friday. He sent out a general order that all unmuZzled dogs should be killed. Thus far none of the per sons bitten have developed symptoms of rabies, but all are being watched by health officers.

San Francisco, June 22.-Walter J. Rartnett, former vice president of the suspended California Safe Deposit and Trust company. and administrator of the estate of Mrs. Ellen NJ. Colton, this afternoon was found guilty of em- beZzling the securities and bonds owned by the estate of the value of $S1, 700. The jury was out less than fifty minutes and reached a verdict on the first ballot Bartnett was recom- mendcd to the mercy of the court Judge Conley fixed Tuesday June 30, as the time for pronouncing the sent ence
 The greater part of the day was oc- cupied with the closing arguments of the prosecution and defense. Assist ant District Attorney Cook spoke for the people during the morning and was followed by Attorney Cooper for aBrt nett. Attorney Geary made the prin- cipal argument in the afternoon and Cook closed
 The main attempt of the attorneys for the defense was to place the blame on Brown, the convicted manager of the institution. Judge Conley con cluded his charge at o'clock and the jury retired a few minutes later. They were out twenty minutes when they sent into court for the letters written by Bartnett to J. DalZeI Brown in New York. When the jurors received the required evidence. the deliberations were again resumed, and it was but a short time later when they filed into court to render the verdict.
 The foreman announced that Bart nett was guilty on the first count. not guilty on the second. Bartnett receiv- ed the verdict coolly

of some of the negroes to sell whis- ky during the progress of such af- fairs. During the evening Dean kill ed six negroes and was held for the killing. At the preliminary examin- ation the evidence tended to show that a plot had been formed at the dance to kill Dean.
 On Saturday last Aaron A. John son, a prominent farmer, was assas- sinated while seated at the dining table with his wife and child, the bullet being fired through a window. For this crime Perry Price, a negro, was arersted and it is stated, con fessed duplicating Robert Wright, a relative of one of the negroes held for Deans murder. Price declared that he offered $50 to kill Johnson.
 Then followed the forming of a mob last night, the overpowering of the jailer at Hemphill and the lynch ing of six negroes held for the mur- der of Dean. Five were hanged to the same tree, while another attempt ed to escape and was shot to death. Later in the night William Mccoy, another negro, was shot and killed while standing at the gate of the home, and this morning the bodies of two more negroes were found in the creek bottom.
 Price. the negro who confessed to the killing of Johnson, and the man implicated, were taken to Beaumont for safe keeping under the guard of q military company of St. Augustine.

Another Indictment of the Public
Schools.
Chicago Times-Herald.)

The complaints of business men
with reference to the ignorance and
sunerfciality of public school gradu-
ates even as regards such fundamen-
tal studies as arithmetic, spelling and
writing, are strikingly reinforced by
an Indictment against the school sys-
tenn of the country drawn by Colonel
I,arned of the Military Academy An
article is contributed by the colonel
to the current North American Re-
view. which is bluntly entitled The
Ineficiency of the Public Schools,
and which is based on the years en-
trance examination papers at West
Point.
Even now, after much legislation
and much effort to raise the standards
of admission, the examinations at the
academy are by no means difficult, ac-
cording to Col Larned The subjects
are: Elementary algebra, plane ge-
ometry, English grammar elementary
composition, common school geogra-
ply and high school history, general
and United States. The minimum
passing mark in any subject is sc.
It seems that 314 candidates took
the examination this year, and zoo
failed in one or more subjects, 209
failed in two or more subjects, and 70
in every subject Examining the fall
ures by subjects, the colonel shows
that 154 failed in algebra, 237 in ge-
ometry, 1919 in grammar, 144 in COM
position and literature, 70 in geogra-
ply, "a in history. Yet the average
attendance of these 314 youths in our
common and high schools was but lit
tie less than ten years, and in the case
of considerably more than half OF the
number the study in these schools was
supplemented by private tutoring or
even some college training.
The inefffciency complained OF is
universal" the eastern and middle
western states disclosing quite as
much weakness as the remoter and
sparsely settled regions. The state OF
affairs, says Colonel Larned, is such
as to make the judicious grieve and to
demand that the educators sit up and
take notice.
The educators are taking notice
There are wide differences of opinion
as to the cause of the admitted lack
Of school efficiency. Some insist on
reversion to "the three Rs policy,
others ask for more men teachers and
stricter discipline still others believe
that the children are overworked and
overtaxed in the first grades, with re-
suits physically and mentally pernic-
ious. But there is a growing demand
for greater efficiency and for an over
hauling of the educational system.
