MEETING OF TAX COMMITTEE IS
 CALLED BY THOMAS
Absence of Two Members
 Delayed Work of Commit , tee at It's Last Meeting.

Alderman William Thomas has call ed meeting of the committee on Tax Equalization for Friday night, at City Hall. This is the committee which was named by Mayor Marcus l.. Reynolds in the last days of his term. .Subse- Quently Mayor Henry Lee appointed J. Hughes to fill vacancies. Some of the members of the committee felt that the subject was complex enough to require careful consideration before the formal work was begun. The preliminary investigation has been over for some time, and a few weeks ago a meeting was held for the pur- pose of going forward with the more public phases of the inquiry. But this meeting accomplished little because of the absence of MT. Jones and MT. Hughes. Their presence is expected at the meeting Friday night.

Beginning tomorrow night the reg ular sessions of Bridgeport lodge, No. 36, B. P. o. F., will be held Thurs day instead of Friday evenings. The change in meeting night goes into eff feet with the first meeting in July and will be continued for the future. Dur ing the summer months the Elks meet only once a month but during the rest of the year meetings are held weekly.
 Scarcely a day passes that the new home of the Elks is not visited by members of the order from other cit ies. Since it's dedication there have been members from lodges of other jurisdictions present almost daily and there are few Elks' homes in the country that compare with the build ing of which the Park City lodge can boast.
 Past Exalted Ruler Joseph c. Ivers, who will represent Bridgeport lodge at the grand lodge reunion in Los An geles the week of July Il, will leave for the Pacific coast on Monday, July 5. Other members of the order who have arranged to attend the grand lodge reunion are Walter Laidlaw, George Green and James Reeves. MT.

(By Warrington Dawson. Staff Cor respondent United Press.)
 Mengo, Uganda Protectorate. British East Africa, June 30.-I arrived at this point yesterday in advance of the Roosevelt hunting party. To-day I have an exclusive interview with Daudi Chwa Kampala, the Boy King of Uganda. This youth is the nominal ruler of the country over which the British government has established pretectorate. When he heard that was in advance of the party headed by Colonel Roosevelt, he sent special messengers to me and urged me to visit him and have an audience in state. The young ruler speaks excel lent English and received me most graciously.
 CT have been looking forward with greatest glee to meeting Sultan RooSe- velt," he said. and shall see he is received with befitting honors when he reaches my country In my travels I have heard what a. great man he is in America and receive this man who was a benefactors to his race in a stFap ge land. fH g most royal manner. Sultan RooseVeits will find splendid hunting in Uganda.
 My country abounds in fine ele- plants, hippopotimus and other game. But the great Sultan will not get any of the white rhinoceros in Uganda. It is cnly on the Egyptian Nile that these rare animals can be found and my hunters report that they are rather plentiful there of late and that a num- Der have been killed"
 Later the King presented me to the native officials who rule Uganda for the British government. They are tall, intelligent blacks and all speak Eng fish. Sir Apollo Kagura is the prime minister. Together the high oignitaries presented me with an autograph letter of welcome to Colonel Roosevelt which they asked me to present before ha arrived.

It is an honor to great for us but we shall try in our feeble way, to show him we appreciate it. Our mountains and plains shall be open to this Great hunter from America. As you shall see the Great Sultan before he enters to him that we shall spare neither the rdpees fronHSthe Royal Treasury nor even our hearts blood, if need be, to give him a Royal welcome"
 When I took my departure. the King gave ne 8 lengthy letter to deliver to Sultan Roosevelt. This letter contains the welcome of lone sovereign to an- other" and urges Sultan Roosevelt" to come to Uganda for a prolonged of his rifle.
 In leaving court, Sir Apollo Kagura. inc prime minister, presented me witsi a magnificent robe of state. Treasurer Kizito presented me with a teapot and I rectived several gifts.
