about the whole report is the number of
Mexican children who total up more
than half.
F. E. Sawyer was appointed purchas-
ing agent and clerk of the school board
and will assume his duties at once at
a salary of 500 per month. This does
away with the secretary's position, as
he will occupy that as well as perform
ing whatever other clerical work the
board may call upon him to do

CHAPTER XIX.

The Jeffries case suddenly entered
into an entirely new phase, and once
more was deemed of sufficient public
interest to warrant column after col
umn of spicy comment in the news
papers. The town awoke one morn
ing to learn that the long-sought-for
witness, the mysterious woman on
whose testimony everything hinged,
had not only been found, but proved
to be the prisoners own. wife, who
had been so active in his defense
This announcement was Supplying
enough to overshadow all other news
of the day, and satisfied the most
jaded palate for sensationalism
The first question asked on al sides
was: Why had not the wife come for
ward before? The reason, as glibly
explained by an evening journal of
somewhat yellow proclivities, was log
ical enough. The telling of her mid
night visit TO single mans rooms
involved a shameful admission which
any woman might well hesitate to
make unless forced to 1t as a last
extremity. Confronted, however, with
the alternative Of either seeing her
husband suffer for a crime of which
he was innocent or making public ac-
acknowledgement OF her own frailty, she
had chosen the latter course. Nat
urally, il meant divorce from the bank
er's son, and undoubtedly this was the
solution most wished for by the family
The whole unsavory affair conveyed
good lesson to reckless young men of
wealth to avoid entangling them
selves in undesirable matrimonial ad
ventures. But it was no less certain.
went on this journalistic mentor, that
this wife unfaithful as she had proved
herself to be- had really rendered her
husband a signal service in her pres
ent scrape. The letter she had pro-
duced, written to her by Underwood
the day before his death, in which he
stated his determination to kill him
self, was, Of course, a complete vindi-
cation for the man awaiting trial. His
liberation now depended only on how
quickly the ponderous machinery of
the law could take cognizance of this
new and most important evidence
The new turn of affairs was nat
urally most distasteful to the police.
If there was one thing more than
another which angered Capt. Clinton it
was to take the trouble to build up a
case only to have It suddenly demol-
ished He scoffed at the suicide let

ster's custody. and openly branded 1t

from IL to II grades, the eighth grade
being removed from the high school.
When the standard is raised very nat
urally the number of graduates de-
creases. Your recent recommendation
that teachers of the Ell Paso schools
should have complete high school
education in addition to professional
training, will tend to improve your
high school I might add by way Of
caution that we too often judge the
efficiency Of a school by its numbers
Quality and not quantity is the main
consideration.
Health of Teachers.
Health Of teachers and pupils is a
matter of vital Importance, and de-
serves even more consideration than it
has received in the past. While all
teachers are given a physical examin-
alton to see that they are free from
chronic or contagious diseases, pupils
are admitted without any examination.
The danger of child contracting
tuberculosis from its class mates is
very great. Especially is this true Of
pupils of high school age, the period OF
adolescence. We are reliably Informed
that the vaccination test is the only
sure one for tuberculosis. If advisable
cases in the schools, to teachers as
we'll as to students.
Athletic Work.
great work has been done IN
athletics during the past year, through
the organization of the Grammar
School league by the physical director
Of the Y NJ. c. A. Considerable Mten-
ton has always been given to athletics
in the high school, and its importance
is not to be estimated. In the near fu-
ture 1 believe that special provision
should be made for this branch in the
high school.
There is necessity for some strong
central store-room where valuable tools
and apparatus of the different schools
may be stored. The saving in this way
would more than counter balance the
comparatively light expense of boxing
and carting the equipment, and fitting
up the room securely. Arrangement
might be made to have one of the JAM
tors sleep near this store-room.
Committee Membership.
1t seems imperative that the presi-
dent of the board should be an exof
ficio member of every committee, and
should attend all the committee meet
ings. OF course this is a great drain on
his time but in this way only is he
able to get q complete grasp on all
matters that pertain to the schools. As
a public spirited individual he will
have to sacrifice his time for the good
of the community.
These suggestions are made not to be
act&l on at this meeting. but in or
der that you may think about them If
later on you can act favorably on them,
I believe it will be for the interest Of
the schools
Respectfully,
N R. Crozier, Superintendent.

woman for the purpose of defeating
the ends of justice. He kept Annie a
prisoner and defied the counsel for
the defense to do their worst Judge
Brewster, who loved the fray, accept
ed the challenge He acted promptly.
He secured Annie's release on habeas
corpus proceedings and, his civil suit
against the city having already begun
in the courts, he suddenly called Capt
Clinton to the stand and gave him
q grilling which more than atoned for
any which the police tyrant had pre-
viously made his victims suffer. In
the limelight Of a sensational trial, in
which public servants were charged
with abusing positions of trust, he
showed Capt. Clinton up as bully and
q CRATER, a bribe-taker, working hand
and glove with dishonest politicians,
not hesitating even to divide loot with
thieves and dive-keepers in his greed
for wealth. He proved him to be
consummate liar, a man who would
stop at nothing to gain his own ends
What jury would take the word OF
such a man as this? Yet this was the
man who still insisted that Howard
Jeffries was guilty of the shooting

But public opinion was too tntelli-
