MEXICO CITY, July a-The twentieth
session OF the Missouri Military academy
Is a thing OF the past. Viewed from the
points Of financial and academic success,
It was a most satisfactory year. The ca
diets Of 1868 are al home now having a
good time and forgetting alike the hard
ships and the pleasures incident TO life in
a military school. How strangely and yet
how sweetly did their lives become bound
up in our own. Many a time since they

NebrnsIsa,s Musical Opportunities.

Nebraska Musical Opportunities.
The University School Of Music at Lin
coin was established for the purpose Of
affording superior advantage for the serl-
Gus study Of music. Its beginning was In
1850, when by the act OF the regents OF
the University OF Nebraska the conserva-
tory Of music was created. Since 1894 1t
has been conducted and maintained with
out financial aid from the university, al
though affiliated with 1t, and stands today
the largest and most thoroughly organized
and best equipped school OF music in the
entire west
Never before in the history of this coun-
try has there existed such a widespread
interest In the study Of music In it's higher
forms as a means OF general culture. The
discriminating student is satisfied with
nothing less than the soundest instruction
in modern methods.
The school is growing rapidly and from
the beginning, as numbers have increased.
larger opportunities AVE been continually
offered, n II is proper to state that no
school in the country has more complete
courses or a higher standard than are
found here today.

Pat and Mike enlisted in the British
army. After their first drill the cap

question. Turning to Mike, he said:

Strange Concerts in India.
The members of the Herbert Withers
Concert Company, who recently closed
a season of record success in India
(under promise to return next year,. are
unanimously agreed that as test of
nerves what are known as "zenana
concerts have few superiors. 1t is
common thing for the members of the
Indian nobility to order these private
concerts for the entertainment of the
ladies of their households, who live
'behind the lattice I'm other words
jealousy hidden from the world and its
snares and never to be lawfully seen
by any other men than their lords and
masters. When a zenana concert is or
dered, the hall is arranged with large
screens completely enveloping the audi
torium. Behind this screen the ladies
of the zenana (or harem) are seated,
protected by inviolate invisibility,
while hearing and seeing everything.
The artists ON the other hand perform
to an apparently empty room, and the
magnetism and sympathy of an audi
ence is wanting absolutely. What makes
it yet more trying for the singer or
instrumentalist is that etiquette forblds
the ladies behind the screen giving ex
preston to appreciation, the concert
proceeding from first to last without
1.-THE vulgar interruption of punctuating
applause.
The next Withers concert will be on
Friday evening, June IS. Seats are on
sale at Bergstrom Music Co.
Open-Air Theater.
The management of the Park Open
Air Theater installed two 5000-candle
power farming arc lights on Fort street
below Beretania avenue last night, much
to the surprise of the people who attend
ed the 'theater. These are the first of
this character of light ever seen here,
and the illumination was great. By
changing the carbons, the light may be
either white or yellow. The lights are
below the line of the fence and do not
in any way interfere with the pictures
on the screen. Shaw made another hit
last night with his ''Lifeboat' reel
tation followed by Irish stories. To-
for the first time.

RAISE TECHNICALLY
IN LIQUOR PERMITS
PAYMENT FOR SEPTEMBER
LICENSE is ISSUE
City Attorney viii Decide That Money
Placed In Escrow Is City's
for the Privilege
Enjoyed

A technical point was raised yester-
day that gave added interest to the
granting of the twelve permits Tor the
saloons at San Pedro.
When the San Pedro saloonkeepers
applied for their permits under the
Los Angeles laws as soon as consoli-
dation became effective, they each de-
posted S1OO in escrow TO pay for their
licenses when they should be issued.
Through delay, granted at the re-
quest of the San Pedro Ministerial as
sociation until such time as the coun-
ell could act on q petition presented
by San Pedro, the permits were not
granted until Wednesday night. They
were made out yesterday by Secre-
tary McKeag and will be delivered to
the saloon men today. But today is the
first of October. During all Of Sep
tember these saloons have been run
ming without a license, although SlOO
was posted for each applicant to pay
the license fee. The point raised was
whether or not these saloonkeepers
would have to pay $100 more each for
the October license or would the SlOO
fee posted be applied to the October
license. It was argued that the sa-
loon men did not have licenses In
September and they could not be
asked to pay for what they did not
have.
City Attorney Hewitt yesterday ad-
mitted that the matter raised a techni-
cal point, but that it was rather hair
splitting affair and If it came to him
officially for a decision he would hold
that while the saloon men may not
have had a formal license they exer-
cised all the rights granted by such
license and that the money in escrow
would be taken by the city to pay for
the privileges extended during Sep
tember.

UTILITIES ORDINANCE
READY FOR COUNCIL
INITIATIVE WILL FOLLOW IF
LAW NOT PASSED
Municipal League to Present Meas
ure Which Is Result of Weeks
of Careful Preparation
Next Tuesday

An ordinance providing for the crea-
ton of a public utilities commission
will be presented to the city council
Tuesday by the Municipal league. The
league has been working on this ordin-
ance for several weeks, and its every
feature is well thought out and pre-
pared under expert legal advice.
Should the council fail to pass the
ordinance, the league will Immediately
begin the circulation of initiative petit
tions to have the ordinance placed be-
fore the people at the next general
election in December.
The ordinance provides for new de-
partment of the city government, to
be known as the public utilities de-
partment, and this department will be
under the direct control of utilities
commission. This board will be COM
posed Of three members, appointed by
the mayor and confirmed by the coun-
Gil. Each member is to hold Office for
three years, but the first board must ar
range among its members that one of
them goes out after the first year and
one after the second year. Instead OF
being appointed on the first of January,
as is the case with other boards of the
city government, the terms will expire
the first of July, which has recently
been fixed as the complete ending of
the municipal year, as 1t has always
been that of the fiscal year.
This board is TO have an office, with
regular Office hours, and hold stated
meetings for the benefit of the public.
A secretary, who is not member OF
the board, is to be appointed and be
on duty all the time.
The principal duty of this board will
be to make an investigation every year
of the public utility companies, and
recommend to the council the rates to
be fixed for each utility service. In
order to do this satisfactorily the board
will be empowered to employ such ex-
perts as it may deem necessary. A fur
ther duty of this commission will be to
see that public service corporations
comply with the franchises granted
them and the ordinances regulating
their conduct. One branch of this de-
partment that will be of interest pro-
vides for receiving and investigating
complaints against the utility corpora
tions, and to recommend to the council
needed legislation.

SALT WATER FIRE SYSTEM
AT SAN PEDRO IS HELD UP
Councilman Wallace Says There Are
No Funds Available at Present
for the Improvement

Councilman A. J. Wallace. chairman
of the finance committee, told the fire
commission yesterday that there is lit
tie hope of the council being able to
find the money necessary to build a
high pressure salt water fire fighting
system at San Pedro. The commission
asked the council to provide the funds
and the council handed the hard prob
lem over to the finance committee.
The plans prepared by Fire Chief
Lips make an outlay of more than
SAC, 900 necessary and this money can
come only from the general expense
fund. Councilman Wallace said yes
terday he was unwilling that the gem
eral fund should be depleted when the
new council comes into office In jan
uary and he would not recommend that
the amount be taken from this fund.
He said it was possible that, later on.
the council might find way to ap-
propriate enough money to begin the
work and let the rest come out Of the
next general budget.

PORTO RICAI 70 BE USED
AS OFFICER OF CENSUS
Secretary of Island Possession of U. s.
Will Be Employed Under Desig-
nation of Special Agent

WASHINGTON, Sept. SO.-David S.
Skinner, assistant secretary of Porto
Rico, will soon come to washington
on leave of absence with pay from his
government, and while here in consul"
tation with the census officials will be
employed under the designation Of
special agent.
This plan on the part of the census
director. Mr.. Durand, submitted to the
comptroller of the currency through
tho secretary of commerce and labor
for decision as to whether such en-
pIoyinent as special agent is forbidden
by any existing statute, has been
sanctioned by the comptroller.
The comptroller holds there is MOTH
ing to prohibit the census director
from employing the Porto Rican as a
secretary in this way, and points out
that as the director of the census is
given authority to appoint special
agents there is no law requiring such
appointments to have the approval of
the secretary of commerce and labor.
