DECLARES HATTIE LIE BLANC
WAS MADE A WHITE SLAVE

Z Cambridge, Mass, Dec. 13.-The
evidence upon which a jury will con-
Wet or acquit Hattie Leblanc of the
murder of Clarence Fs Glover, was
completed yesterday afternoon
Then NJ NJ Johnson, leading coun-
SCI for the girl, made the opening plea
for her life.
The young lawyer said that the girl
was brought from the provinces solely
for the white slaVe" traffic and then,
turning to- Mrs Lillian NJ. Glover, who
induced her to leave her home, Mr..
Johnson denounced the widow, as a
vampire and recited Kipling's poem to
emphasize his point.
Mr. Johnson charged that Glover
attacked Hattie while she was in his
house and under his guardianship.
Clarence F. Glover reaped the wages
Of his sin, wherever the blow was
struck from" he said.

FINANCIAL CRISIS
HANGING OVER
SCHOOLS
Amount Allowed for School
Maintenance Lacks $751;
600 of Being Enough.

Like BanQuo's ghost the financial
clouds that have enveloped the school
board in a series Of hazes in months
past, made the first visit for the 1910
II season at the meeting of the board
at the Mesa school Monday night. AS
q result a strong effort is to be made
to arrange a joint meeting Of, the
school board and city council, and a
stronger effort is TO be made by the
school board to secure an appropria-
tisn considerably in excess of s135, 900.
as allowed by mayor Kelly's budget.
Briefly explained, il is like this:
The estimated cost of operating ex-
penses for 1901 is q little matter
Of s212, goo. The, appropriate allowed
by the city is s135, 600. Revenue to be
derived from state taxes is estimated at
$4,000, rather than $51, 900, as it was
at first thought would be received. This
gives the school board s1S1, 1000 to meet
estimated expenses of S212.000.
Holds School Overdrafts.
Incidentally, another bugaboo to be-
ing a school director, is the fact that
the Rio Grande Valley Bank and Trust
company holds school overdrafts on
which the interest for the past three
months amounts to s1676. A statement
for that amount was read at the meet
ing Monday night, but no action was
taken.
An effort will be made to arrange
the meeting with the city council be-
fore the council session Thursday, as
school board directors state it is abso-
lutely- imperative that more funds be
allowed for the schools. AS the tax
levy has been announced at sL90 and
part Of the tax receipts printed, ii is
not probable that the levy will be in
creased, but 1T is said an effort will
be made to secure a reduction of other
funds or to draw on the additional
taxes that will be collected, as a result
of the increased valuation of the city.
Superintendent's Report.
The meeting opened with the reading
Of the report of N. r. CroZier, superin-
tendent, which recites that the attend
ance during November shows a de-
crease of IFS, compared with 1909.
The report follows
The enrolment is gradually climbing
up and from the figures herewith given
you will note that while last month we
were ZIG behind last years enrolment.
