HIGH SCHOOL MEETING
Members Chose Committee to Frame
Bylaws for Athletic League

Immediately after the close of the
session Thursday afternoon the men,
bers of the high school held a meet
ing in the assembly room for the pur-
pose of discussing athletics in general
during the coming year. The old con-
stitution of the athletic league was
discussed and found to be imprac-
tible. In fact, it is said that the var
ious articles comprising the original
document which was so carefully
drawn up three years ago, had be-
come scattered during the summer
and it would be no easy task to locate
them.
Accordingly a committee of five
was chosen by those present to draw
up A new constitution which will be
submitted to the superintendent, prin-
cipal and students and, If found to
cover the ground, will probably be
adopted at q subsequent meeting of
the school. The committee is com
posed of the following members:
Frank Dean, chairman; Principal H
b. Dickinson. Walter Wood. Samuel
Patterson and Hiram Fassett, Jr
1t is the plan of Principal Dickinson
and those interested in the welfare of
school athletics that the new league
should be comprised of both boys and
girls. An effort will be made to
arouse athletic interest among all
the members and it is hoped that the
school will be represented this
autumn OH the gridiron by winning
team.
1t Is currently rumored today that
the election of the Freshman class
will take place this afternoon. There
is some talk about the annual bridge
rush but 1t is doubtful If any of the
Fresnles will be ducked in the foun-
tain as the school authorities have
not looked with favor on the pranks
Of former years and will probably
oppose any attempt to initiate the
Freshmen on the school grounds.

Saratoga, Sept. 1O.-Out of the

anent organization to be known as

At the close of a day of Democratic

lining the purposes and hopes of the

lowing preamble:
That for the purpose of aiding and
strengthening the Democratic party,
bringing back to its ranks those who
have been separated from it, and at
racting to it the Independent and the
young voters of the state; offering q
place of refuge for those Republicans
who feel that their trust in their
party has been betrayed and its
solemn pledges and promises to them
broken, who deprecate its wasteful
ness and extravaganza In administer
ing the affairs of government, and
look with apprehension upon the
steady strides it is making towards
the Capitalization of government at
the expense of the legitimate powers
of the states and of the rights re-
served to the people; and for the pur-
pose of disseminating the principles
of the Democratic party. the efforts of
this conference should be continued
and for that purpose its organization
made permanent
At tae evening session Chairman
Shepard read the following telegram
from w. j. Bryan:
Il trust the conference will strength
en- the party by Straightforward dec
larations in favor of principles and
policies acceptable to the rank and
file Of the party throughout the land.
| am hoping for strong endorsement
of the income tax, for specific demand

This total, divided az 30 cents per

very conservative estimate of the at
tendance would be 2000 for the first
day $4,000 for the second day and
1000 for the third day, total of 2l,-
600 for the three days, leaving S577

and It could do no good. | think the
crowd was handled as well as possible
under the circumstances and We have
learned lesson which should be pro.
fitted by next season.
Treasurer Horton tells a plain un.
vanished story. He issued rolls OF
tickets to all ticket sellers, checked
up with them and took their money
each day, the number of sellers were
increased to eight and there were not
enough ticket rolls to go around. To
facilitate moving the crowd a few
hundred loose tickets were resold.
This, he thought, caused some confus-
ion, but all moneys were counted and
checked and he has record of every
cent that passed through his hands.

ed for the first time In this city. IN
the Detroit opera house. Monday even.
ing. and that II made an appeal TO
the audience was attested by the Wig
orous applause that greeted the var.
ious scenes and acts.
The play Is the work OF a former
Detroit newspaper man. who. before
coming here. was traveller and an ex-
perienced actor u is said that he
studied the scenes and characters OF
his drama fret hand. and his effort Is
an effective bit Of realism taken from
that section OF the country unknown
to few In the east or middle west. II
has the atmosphere. the excitement.
the suspense the danger and the color
that has always been associated with
that portion OF the United states, and
there are soldiers, scouts. Indians,
Arizona girls and desperadoes galore
in THE Roundup" IL Is preten-
tious melodrama, deliberately staged.
as all OF the Klaw e. Erlanger produc-
tons are. While the drama presents
no great problem to be solved. and
there Is no moral to be drawn. unless
II be the one Mind they own bust
ness" II serves the purpose for which
the author undoubtedly intended It,
to present faithful picture OF actual
scenes and events that TRANSFERRED
close To nature.
The story is told In four acts. the
scenes representing Jim Aliens ranch
OH the Sweetwater valley. the living
room In Payson's ranch, a canon in the
bad lands" on the border OF Mexico.
and the roundup on the Sweetwater
range.
Jack Payson. who, by deceit, has
won the sweetheart OF Dick Lane, IA
mining engineer Is forced by circum-
stances to reveal his perfidy to his
wife. Payson. who at heart is good
sort, and inaanely in love with Echo,
his wife, believes that she really cares
for Dick. Acting upon the impulse
when she ?ccuses him OF deceiving
her. he starts for the desert to find
Dick and send him back to Echo. Pay
son finds Dick dying OF thirst In the
bad lands" and offers him his horse
and water supply TO return. At this

The curtain in the third act reveals
pass with twenty Indians riding
along the edge Of the precipice. This
is sensational piece OF realism per-
haps never before staged In any other
production. The firing of the troops

ries terror and death to hordes OF the
Indians, and the response OF the mer-
CHESS savages. Is said TO be the near
est approach TO real battle that has
