LODI, Oct. 1s.-Alleging that his son
in law. Levi Atwood. had failed to pay

JOSHERS EAT HAWK

Much OF
Especial Dispatch to The Call

- ?
SAN RAFAEL Oct. 1S.-sparrow
hawks on toast instead of quail was
the dish two sportsmen well known in
San Francisco and Marin county served
their friends at a city cafe last night.
The guests Of homer edevoured the sup
posed quail with great relish, but
turned pale and left hurriedly when
Informed what they had eaten. The
joke was played in revenge for week
of ..joshing' at the expense of the
sportsmen, who made mistake eight
days ago when. they started to hunt
quail before the season opened
H. H. Sheldon and Walter Howe were
the hosts Ten of their formerly
Humorous friends in sporting and
musical circles were the victims.
The plot was hatched a. week ago.
At that time Sheldon and Howe drove
Is miles to hunt quail and were forced
Tocaloma by San Anselnio at mid
night when they found the season
opened October Is instead of October 1.
Sunday the hunters got the limit
bag and five sparrow hawks. They
said nothing about the hawks to their
friends, but invited them to a quail
dinner. The chef co-operated in the
conspiracy. He prepared the hawks.
placing half a bird on each of the
1 o plates. The quests pronounced them
the best quail they had ever eaten.
Then Sheldon and Howe casually re-
marked that the quail were hawks.
Some of the guests tried to laugh. But
the humor they had displayed all week
suddenly left them.

LABOR Law OBEYED
At COTTON MILLS
Department Managers Deny En1=
plOyment of Children Under
Age or Physically Unfit

Editor Call--Sir: At public meet
ing of the Children's welfare league
held in Oakland on the 18th inst, Mrs
J. n. Porter, recording secretary, is re-
ported in your paper of the 18th inst
to have stated that fully so children
between 10 and IL years of age were
employed nearly 10 hours a day in the
California cotton mills, and that this in
formation was furnished by an East
Oakland clergyman who did not wish
his identity known.
The clergyman was Rev. Mr. Sanborn
name. we presume, was owing to sus-
picion that his statements were not
true
Since the publication of these charges
Rev. Mr.. Sanborn and Mrs J. N. Porter
have been informed that their charges
were unwarranted and their criticisms
and representations of conditions at the
California cotton mills were entirely
untrue and unjust to the institution and
it's management, and both were invited
to visit the mills and personally inves-
tigate.
As neither has responded to our invi-
tation, nor withdrawn the false state
ments made at that meeting, we, the
undersigned. soverseers who hire the
persons employed in the various de-
partments and examine their age and
school certificates, here deny the
charges made as to the employment of
young persons between 10 and IL years
of age.
No children are employed here unless
they present an age and schooling GER
tifcate, issued by the school authorities
and sworn to by their parents or guar
dian
Our instructions are, by directors and
the management, that in addition to
age and education certificates required
by law the young people must be also
physically strong and healthy in ap-
pearance.
When Mrs J. n. Porter and Rev Mr.
Sanborn make public charges that we
are law breakers we think they should
not be allowed to pass uncontradicted.
Many years ago the board of direc-
tors of the California cotton mills VOL
UNFAIRLY reduced the hours of labor
from so to 54 hours a week, with no re-
duction in wages, and we feel that it is
unfair to us to have these unjust
charges made where from 500 to 700
people are employed.
Kindly insert this contradiction in
your paper and oblige, yours very truly,

SALE OF TIMBER
ASSURES RAILWAY
Federal Forestry Department
Orders Advertisement Favor
ing Humboldt Project
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

EUREKA. Oct. 1s.-What is consid-
cred, by the Humboldt and Eastern rail-
road committee, which is promoting the
construction OF railroad through the
Trinity forest reserve, the most en-
coura ging advice yet received from the
forestry department at Washington
was made public today in the shape of
an announcement from Forester T. S.
Graves that he had instructed the dis
trict forester at San Francisco to ad-
vertise for sale the required timber in
the Trinity national forest.
While the communication did not
state definitely Just how much timber
would be sold, leading members of the
committee are confident that the entire
100000, 600 feet requested when the
construction of the road was first pro-
posed will be offered for sale to the
highest bidder.
William S. Clark, chairman of the
railroad committee, accompanied by
Henry Deering and H. L. Jacknlan, re-
turned today from San Francisco, where
they had been on important business
connected with the Humboldt and East
ern.
Clark said today that two San Fran
cisco capitalists were prepared TO
finance the construction of the road
eastward TO the Sacramento valley as
soon as the necessary concessions had
been received from the forestry de-
partment
Clark and Deering stated that they
practically were assured that the 3,000,-
100000 feet would be offered for sale
and that the matter of financing the
road was no longer problem inasmuch
as a number of eastern as well as Pa
cific coast capitalists were eager TO bid
on the timber. Owing to the fact that
the sale of the timber depends upon the
agreement to construct the railroad
there is little doubt that the construc-
tion of the railroad is assured.
