SLIPPERY TOM
ELUDEs ENTIRE
POLICE FORCE

BY his slippery evolutions yesterday,
Thomas Richards earned for himself an
eel-like reputation in the eyes of the
police and caused them not a little
anxiety He is at present, in company
with Antoine Phillips, under indict-
9nent for highway robbery in the sec
ond degree, and as both failed to put
in an appearance in court yesterday
morning when their case was called,
bench warrants were issued for them.
Later. Richards boudsman took him
in tow with the purpose of surrender
ing him to the police, but on the way
down TO the station he slipped away
and the surety showed up sans his
principal
The police then went out after him
and finally located and arrested him.
Richards. however. is not man TO be
disturbed by trife like this, and
promptly climbed over the fence when
no one was looking and is at present
at large. Chief of Detectives McDuf-
fe was requested to look him up and
had one of his staff on his track all
evening. It is asserted that slippery
Tom will be given chance to prove
his proves again today.

WILL SNAPSHOT
HALLEY's COMET
Scientist Coming Here to Make
Observations and Pictures
in March.

Professor Everman of the staff of
the Mount Wilson observatory at Pasa-
dena, has advised the promotion com
mittee that he will arrive here about
March l with a six-inch telescope, fit
ted to take photographs of the HALEY
comet.
The fact that Professor Everman is
coming here on a mission so full of
scientific interest, indicates that the
Hawaiian Islands may be regarded as
particularly good field for astronomic
observations.
The professor states that he will
probably locate his instrument at Eva
and probably at the United States seis-
ntograph station, where he says he I'M
derstands the atmospheric conditions
are exceptionally good.
He also asks whether the roads are
good enough for motorcycle riding. He
states that he has a twin-cylinder In
dian motorcycle and, with his family
residing in Honolulu, he would like to
come into town daily.
The Mount Wilson observatory is af-
filiated with the Carnegie Institute of
Washington.

Miss Laura Lewis head of the English

enrolment of between so and 60, and
the senior class Of thirteen is taking
the practice work The Concord Nor
NAL School is doing mucn for the part
OF the State, adjacent to 1t and the
people are justly proud of what 1t is
accomplishing. All Of the State Nor
NAL Schools are becoming real train

academies as they were in large part
for many, years. 1t will not be long
until they cannot justly be referred to
as our tso-called' Normal Schools as
they hive been7nany times. When that
glad day comes in fullest measure the
