meeting. The assignment of work
for next year was given. Very few
changes will be made. In the Lowell
school there will be an additional 9th
grade and one less 5th grade, also an
additional 3rd grade and one less End

be required to take the overflow in
the End grade from the Emerson and
Lowell schools.
At the close of last week the three
second grades of the Lowell school
had their annual picnic in the Chill

their memories.
Friday this week the children of
the kindergarten will have their May

forced him to beset, with his presence, person for
whom he felt such great respect
What he dreaded came to pass; another meeting
occurred, and Passeraud was inconsolable when the
amable girl blushed even more than before.
He was now furious with himself; the Unknown,
scandalized by such pursuit, had in all probability
taken measures to avoid him. AT last, convinced of
his misfortune, Passeraud took the same route every
day at the hour and every day made way on the
landing for the most desirable of neghbors to pass
him by and, as he had been brought up by polite
mother, he saluted her at each meeting. 1t was not
long before it seemed to him that the slight inclina
ton of the head which had hitherto acknowledged his
reverential bow, took a more cordial aspect.
Having remarked this, he went to shop to look at
himself in glass Che did not possess one of his OWN,
in order to learn if his person such as to please

precautions to the of the pretty young lady

it was Valentine, he altogether enchanted.
These gongs and comings retarded the progress of
the automatic brake; the diagrams languished. In
Short it necessary that Passeraud love should be
returned for if engineer should sigh in vain he
would at become a desolate loyer-the desOlate
lover would kill the inventor and in consequence all
these travellers that his invention to would
perish. Therefore, the happiness of Passeraud was
equivalent to the safety of thousands of beings pre-
served from death by the automatic brake.

of this sketch, which is filled with
the cynicisms and scintillating wit
of the genius Wilde. The story
deals with a man and a woman who
kill the things they most love and
find what to them is infinitely pref

Fish TRUST Wins
FURTHER DELAY
Lawyers of Indicted Merchants
Expect to Attack Validity
of Indictments

Delay and technicality marked the
second calling of the fish trust case
yesterday before Judge Cabaniss. AL
though continuance of 10 days had
been previously granted, the trusts
attorneys were no better prepared to
proceed than week ago last Monday,
when they begged time in which to
study the evidence taken by the grand
jury. Their whole course will be de-
lay as William NJ. Madden and Bert
Schlesinger, representing respectively
the Western and PaIadini companies,
say they expect to attack the validity
of the indictments, which they hint
Will mean the constitutionality of the
Cartwright antitrust law.
None of the 20 fish trust defendants
appeared yesterday, excepting Pala-
dini, although Assistant District At
torney James F. Brennan, representing
District Attorney Fickert, whom he
VIII assist during the main trial, had
consented to the continuance of last
week on the distinct condition, as he
thought, that the defendants were to
plead yesterday
AS soon as ready" was answered by
chorus of attorneys to the calling of
the case Brennan remarked the alb
sence of the defendants and told the
court of his understanding. The Judge
then took up the inquiry.
The judges conclusion was that in
spite of the fact the code does not
command a defendant to appear for
arraignment in a misdemeanor case, it
would be safer to grant a few days
delay for this purpose This, he
thought, would do away with any tech
nical objections that might be raised
in the future by the defense
Madden explained that Fickert
agreed that 1t would not be necessary
for the defendants to attend the pre-
liminary proceedings. Brennan said
he had heard of no such agreement.
In support of his statement Madden
said the defendants had never been
served bench warrants, as bonds for
their appearance were filed with Pre-
siding Judge Van Nostrand when the
indictments were returned.
Brennan advised the immediate ar
raignment of Paladini, who was in the
court. Schlesinger, Madden and Wal
ter Thompson objected. At this the
Judge said the arraignment of all at
one time would be better, and so set
the date for next Saturday morning.
The question of reasonable time
was raised by the defense, when Bren-
nan insisted on pleas following the ar
raignment Saturday. This brought
forth the remark from the judge that
it is the custom to grant time, al
though he did not know just what the
code provided. Schlesinger said 1t
was two days. On the strength of this
statement Brennan will on Saturday
ask that pleas be entered on the fol-
lowing Monday.
Both Schlesinger and Madden admit
ted out of court that they will fight
for still further delays. They say
they have not yet prepared the case
for the defense, although they will
strike at the indictment on technical
grounds.

was his mother in law. that he and his
wife lived with her while she was i'll
and there was a dispute as to the
charge to be made against him and his

Turner was served a few days ago

by his wife and limited that was the
reason why he was arrested, as his
mother in law knew all along where he
