of the subject. The suggestion was
embodied in Wheeler's report read

He urged that congress enact a

quest was granted, the members of

OF this city were taking the lead in
manual training and domestic science
work in the state, the other schools
looked to 1t for guidance in this de-
partment of educatcion.
There have been prepared about a
dozen frames and cases of the work of
the pupils in this department. These
are classified as TO grades showing the
first and so on UP to the final step in
the work training the hands and the
eyese of the pupils. These exhibits
are certainly worthy of a close inspec-
ton Ali kinds of paper, metal and
leather work is shown and all show a
considerable amount of talent and
training.

ton on the working of the industrial

MUSICIAN BEATS PAWN SHOP.
swindler Pawnod Gems, Then Bought
More on Credit.

Washington, Dec. 9.--The police es-
innate that in the last two years the
pawnbrokers in this city have been
fieeced Of about $4,000, probably more,
by one man who worked SO quietly on
such a novel scheme Of operations that
he was not caught until yesterday. 1t
was the old story OF the pitcher that
goes to the well too often being
broken.
The man says he is Frederick r.
Rice of Chicago. He is a musician.
Now he is locked UP. charged with
embezzlement, with other charges
pending.
Rice's plan, the police say, was to
buy diamonds on credit and pawn
them. They say he would agree to
make small weekly payments and do
so for a time out OF the loans he re-
ceived on the jewels from other pawn
brokers The system resolved itself
into kiting diamonds as checks are
sometimes kited.
In Rfce's apartments the detectives
say they found enough pawn tickets
to cover the walls of room, and,
using chem as evidence, the police say
Rice's operations date back two years,
mount up to $4,000 ana involved
transactions ranging from $4,000 to
$500, 900.

new COMET seen
At MINI. SCHOOL
WITH A FIVE-INcH FINDER DR.,
NILSSON DISCOVERS PRINCE
sToN STUDENTS FIND.

Mortified, Mimi, Dec. "a report
of the discovery of new comet has
been received at the Carlton observa-
tory, and DIR. H. c. Wilson, the direc-
tor, confirms the report.
The new comet was seen at GoodselI
observatory last night by Dr. Wilson
through five-inch finder. The posi-
tion as observed by him is hours IL
minutes seconds in right ascension
with a declination north of "a degrees
so minutes. The comet is In the con-
steIlation auriga, degrees southwest
of the star Theta.
The comet ITSELF said DIR. Wilson, is
very diffuse body. 1t is round, has
no tail whatever and the head itself
is very faint-so faint, I'm fact that
the body would not have been observed
If search was not made directly for
1t. 1t would be very possible to OBJ
SERGE 1t through three-inch telescope,
easier, in fact, than through a larger
instrument The smaller telescope
would condense the observed body and
make it easier to see. The comet is
APPARENTLY moving straight north at the
rate of about degree each day. We
NchAlOG ICAA INV AD4As IT VIII bG NAElDAS.
When asked why this body had not
been noticed before, DIR. Wilson said
probably one reason is because of it's
fainrness. If one was not searching
directly for it, it could not be seen.
Il, myself, passed over 1t at least
twice before locating 1t. There is no
possibility of its presence interfering
with the path. Of airy other stellar
bodies"
In DR.. Wilson's opinion, 1t Is most
probable that this comet is an entirelj
new che. never before observed.
A careful search of the record nf
known comets whose appearance IL
expected leads to the almost certain
conclusion that this one has never been
seen before.
1t is too early yet TO tell the pos
slbla course of the comet the time OF
it's appearance, and its possible sig
nificance in the astronomical worlds.

There is no reason in the world why

The only exceptions are cases
where a department is investigating a
crime or possibly matters involving
diplomatic relations.

PREHISTORIC PUEBLO
CLIFF ruin FOUND

Washington Dec SWIM. l.. Doug
lass, examiner Of surveys Of the gem
eral land offic !, has just reported to
that office the discovery Of an import
ant prehistoric Pueblo cliff ruin near
the head of Indian creek, not far from
the southwest corner OF the Navajo In
dian reservation in Arizona. This ruin
contains sevent rooms and is con-
structed almoss entirely of adobe brick,
1Sx6x4 inches in size, made of clay
mixed with grass and laid in single
courses.
The structure it built high in the
cliff under large arching shelter
rock A number of the rooms are two
story, and some appear to have been
three stories ehigh. Many of these
rooms are in a perfect state OF preser-
walton. One was covered with three
coats OF adobe plaster. Here was dis
covered an Inscription, presumed to be
Spanish, which, SO far as it could be
deciphered, was:
"Ghos.
ammo d.
1861"
The first line OF this inscription is
not complete. The second line also is
not distinct beyond the letters given,
but probably the words are Ammo
Doani.
