TO MAKE DENVER DRY.
Antisaloon League Is Depending on
Votes of Women.

Denver, Nov 9.-The Colorado branch
Of the anti-saloon league has announc-
ed plans for a campaign in this city
which is looked upon as the supreme
test of the feasibility of woman's suf-
frage. Efforts will. be made to submit
the question of making Denver totally
dry to the voters next spring.
Thirty thousand votes will accomplish
this result, according to E. E. McLaugh-
lin, superintendent of the league, and he
believes that with the cooperation of
the women of the city, this total should
be comparatively easy to get.
Speakers at the meeting, when the
proposition was launched. declared that
should the women fail of their support,
the suffrage movement throughout the
country would be given a decided set
back, and predicted that no other state
would endorse woman suffrage for the
next 20 years.
George Becherer. president of the Lii
quor Dealers association of Colorado,
said that the saloon men had unlimited
money to spend if necessary to defeat
the leagues plans.

Fl. 5. Hadsall Is suing the Case-Hinze
company, builders of the Southern Cali
fornia beet sugar factory, for half of
the alleged profits of s230,000 accruing
from the sale of the factory, were made
yesterday by the three defendants, f.
II. and +. B. Case and II. w. Heinze,
before L. A. West, court commissioner.
The dispositions of Hinze and +. B Case
were completed, but T. H. Case will be
further examined in December after
the return of the books of the building
company, which were shipped from Los
Angeles to Lansing, Mich, November
2. the day after the Hadsall suit was
begun.
Hadsall's complaint sets forth that
the building company contracted to pay
him fourth of the profits of the fac
tory sale for promoting the factory,
and one-fourth of the profits to James
Irvine for subscribing for $4,000 worth
of stock. The James Irvine claim was
assigned to Hadsall, who sues for that
as we'll as his own claim, the total of
the two claims being $4,000.
The depositions of the defendants as
sert that Irvine was to receive $4,000,
out of which Hadsall was to be paid
$1,000, and that such agreement was
separate from the factory sale profits.

Lsnecial to The Herald.l

LONG BEACH, Nov 12.-When the
janitor arrived at the high school this
morning, and opened the door of the
assembly room he was astonished to
see on the platform a confused heap
of books. A little investigation showed
him that the books had been taken
from all the desks and thrown on the
platform.
A little later he discovered, on going
to open the doors of the school rooms,
that plaster paris had been put in every
keyhole. With pieces of wire he scraped
the stuff out so that the doors could
be opened.
1t was believed by the faculty that
the tricks were perpetrated by students
who did not wish to take the quarterly
examinations set for today.
Some of the students were excused
from the examinations, as they had
made high class averages. Some of the
others, 1t is believed, were angered be-
cause they, too, were not so excused.
The perpetrators of the trick gained
entrance to the building through the
front door and, it is supposed, had
picked up a key that had been mis-
placed by one of the teachers and had
secured a duplicate of it. The eXami-
nations were held today and the trick
played last night caused little delay.
A committee of students worked near
ly all day helping to sort out the books
taken from the desks of the various
high school students.
