POLYTECHNIC SCHOOL
s ENTERTAINS VISITORS
About Two Thousand Inspect Prem
ises and Are Given Electrical Ex=
hibit and Other Varied
Programs

Yesterday was visitors day at the
Polytechnic high school, and between
the hours of 8 a. m. and 4:30 p. m.
about 1000 people inspected the prem
ises. At 10 o'clock and again at p. IN.
special programs were rendered by the
students in the school auditorium, to
which the visitors were invited.
The program consisted of an exhibit
ton by the boys and girls gymnasium
clubs and musical numbers sung in
French, Spanish and German by the
different modern language classes.
The school was in regular session all
day. Boys from the BIZ and All classes
acted as guides, escorting the visitors
through the building.
An electrical exhibit in the physics
department proved a great attraction.
Many were shown the bones of their
hands through an X-ray apparatus. All
the other apparatus in the department
was in operation.
The girls had a large and tempting
display of dainties in the cooking
rooms, and many Of the articles were
sold to the visitors.

Uphold Majority Report
Vice President Murdo Mackenzie
from Denver came to the rescue of the
majority report and challenged the
right of Senator Ammons to speak for
the people of Colorado. ST will say to
you that Senator Ammons does not rep
resent the sentiment of my section of
the country" said Mr.. Mackenzie. Ex-
Senator J. M. Carey of Wyoming,
chairman of the resolutions committee,
also came to the defense Of the meas
ure attacked. He described how the
timber which once covered the hills
and mountains of the west had been

carelessly and wastefully destroyed by
railroads, miners and individuals who
were needless of the country's future.
I'VE owe duty he said, ito our
children and our grandchildren, and We
must take some measures to protect the
natural resources of this country. What
right have /, because I own few cat
tie and sheep, to waste the natural re-
sources for my own selfish interest?
None. Clifford Pinchot is a man of for
tune and is not in the forestry business
for money. He is far above any selfish
idea of exploitation of natural re-
sources. His policy is to use the public
lands for the purposes for which they
are best adapted, whether that be for
timber, grain or grazing"

SenteQ by Mr.. AmmOnS. The policy or
Mr.. Pinchot has cast blight on the
development of Colorado and has al
most put an end to the homestead en-
tries in that state. There are thousands
of acres of public lands in Colorado held
by Mr.. Pinchot as his princely domain
which are barren of all timber, and
these we want thrown open to home
builders"
The substitute resolution offered by
Senator Ammons was then put to
vote and defeated. The committee res
olution was then passed with a small
dissenting. voice. 1t is as follows:
Resolution Is Adopted
Whereas, Under the capable and
broad-minded direction of the United
States forestry service by it's chief, Mr.
Clifford PinchOt, we believe that the
administration Of this service is stead
lily improving and is conducted along
practical and businesslike lines, with
view to obtaining the greatest possible
use of the forests consistent with their
preservation; therefore be 1t
Resolved, That the American Ma
tional Live Stock association, in con-
vention assembled this 28th day of jan
uary, 1909, at Los Angeles, California,
heartily indorses the forest and water
preservation policy and its manage
ment''
The debate then shifted to the Curtis
Scott bill, which is in line with the
policy of the forest reserve service, and
provides for the leasing by the federal
government Of the public lands to indi
vidualS. Here again the Colorado
minority had ready a substitute resolu
ton favoring the restriction of the for
est service to the growth and protec-
ton Of timber lands. 1t was finally
agreed to vote on this amendment as a
separate resolution and 1t was defeated.
The regular resolution indorsing the
Curtis-Scott bill was then passed by a
good majority.
There seemed to be unanimity of
opinion on the remaining resolutions,
which were none the les important for
not being opposed.
One of the resolutions passed provides
for Opposing advances in interstateN
rates, fares and charges by the rail-
roads, except upon approval of the in
terstate commerce commission A law
to require the railroads to furnish cars
on reasonable notice and to haul perish
able freight with due dispatch was rec
commended. Tariff reform and many
other problems Of interest to the stock
men were recommended, as was also
resolution thanking the officers Of the
association for their services rendered
and the press of Los Angeles for courte-
sizes shown.
Officers Quickly Elected
The election of officers for the year
1909 occupied little time, the slate being
worked out in advance and being salts
factory to everyone. H. A. Jastro of
Bakersfield, Cal, was chosen president
for another term, Murdo Mackenzie of
Colorado was reelected first vice
president, and J. M. Carey of Wyoming
was chosen for the position of second
vice president.

Peculiar African Rae

There is peculiar sort Of people
living in northwest Rhodesa. These
natives are small of stature, with large
horns on their heads. The horn
springs from the scalp, consists of the
natives hair mixed with fat and flkh,
and is sometimes as much as IS inches
long. For the most part these Kaffirs
live on the great open fats to be found
ON both sides Of the Kafue river. They
build their huts on the great ant heaps
which appear like hills scattered over
the fats. When the kafue is in food
and the fats are changed into great
lakes these people are safe In their
huts on the ant heaps Their rattle
also take refuge on the ant heaps on
which corn and mealies are likewise
grown.

SHOW HATRED OF FOREIGNERS.
Chinese Historical Plays That Keep
Alive Race Prejudice.

Historical plays are acted every.
where in China. They are popular in
the quiet villages, the homes of the
rich, in the crowded cities, and in the
busy market towns. These plays are
written with the object of intensity
ing the bitterness and contempt of the
people against the foreigner. The
story of plunderings and massacres OF
their forefathers is vividly portrayed,
with all the dramatic power that the
actors possess. The foreigner is rep
resented as monster in appearance
His face is dragged out OF shape and
his mouth is made to appear near his
ear. His beard on one side is red and
on the other blue. His eyes are fierce
and staring, and murder is stamped
upon his hideous features. The peo-
pie Of the interior, who have never
come into actual contact with the for
eigner, have this conception OF the
hated barbarian. To their minds

The Quaint Belluqa.

Caviare can be made of the roe Of
any fish; but the principal supply
comes from the sturgeon and the bel
luga. The latter is about the most
curious fish In the world. 1t weighs
up to 1000 pounds and inhabits the
waters Of the swift-flowing Volga. 1t
is SO abundant that the natives Of
Astracan throw away the flesh
which is whittier than veal and very
dainty preserve only the spawn,
of which they sometimes take as
much as 200 pounds out of one fisn.
This belluga lies on the bottom of
the river at certain seasons and swal-
lows many large pebbles of great
weight to ballast itself against the
force Of the stream; that Is, the
pebbles act as an anchor. When the
flood subsidies and the waters are less
violent the belluga disgorges itself;
that is, 1t unballasts, hauls in its an
chor and swims about for provender.

THE Arcadian Musical Comedy Co.,
one Of the best musical comedy pro

at the opera house last night and
thoroughly enjoyed by an apprecia-

The Elopers,' or In Arcadia,
which was very interesting and ex-
ceedingly amusing, was replete with
the latest musical numbers under the
personal direction of Miss Gloie Eller.
Those who deserve special mention,
and who have received many words
of commentator, are the Great Car
roll, famous character artist and
mimic; the Manhattan News Boys
Quartette brought forth many en-
cores and answered several curtain
calls. Miss Leona Earl, as Lettie
Leonard, playing the leading role,
was very clever, and handled her
work like a true artist. Miss Barry
Melton, a sweet voice vocalist, was
an ideal Brinkley Girl, and Miss
Gloie Eller, as Suzanne Dacre, the
Bachelor Lady, who was finally woed
and won, was clever and amusing.

the show last night received a real
