ROUSINC MEETING.
Commercial Club Met in Club Rooms
Tuesday Evening.

One of the best and most interesting
meetings of the American Falls Com
mercial Club held for some time was
held Tuesday evening in the club rooms
in the Illinois block when twenty-eight
members were present. This was an
adjourned mestYg to complete some
business which Ncame up at the regular
monthly meeting and which could not
at that time be disposed of. Many mat
tiers pertaining to the betterment of
American Falls were called before the
meeting and taken care of in careful
manner. Street lighting was one of
the subjects which came before the
club and something started which is
likely to mean more lights in our streets.
The matter of placing more hitching
posts on the streets for the accommo-
dation of farmers was discussed and
this matter will be taken care of i'm
mediately as there are many now who
are compelled to tie to the trees on the
streets. Two new members were ad-
mitted and several new names pre-
sented. The Commercial Club is grow
ing rapidly and the result of its work
is noticed every day. American Falls
is composed of boosters and when they
all get together as they are in this club
there is bound to be something doing.

SANTA ROSA. July miss Edith

week at Camp Meeker with Miss Elsie

in Slinvania lake in eight feet of water.
Her. companion was rescued as she was
about to drown by Edward Phillips,
who later rescued Ray s1attery when
the latter had gone to the rescue of
Miss Johnson and had become ex-
hamsted in his efforts to secure the
body.
Neither of the girls could swim. but
both put on bathing suits and went out
into the water. The young men. were
sitting on the bank when they heard
the screams for help. They dived into
the lake at once. Phillips reached Miss
Sellinger's side first and soon had taken
her safely out of the water.
Slattery was unable to rescue Miss
Johnson, but persisted in his efforts to
secure her body from the bottom of
the lake until, he was about to go
under himself when Phillips succeeded
in bringing him to shore.

flint SAYS mo"
I And GOES ABROAD
Walter Parker Could Not Coax
Senator to Run Again; Wife
Wouldn't Let Him
Especial Dispcich TO The Call

WASHINGTON, July 7.-Walter Park
er. emissary of the distracted Califor-
MIA machine. made lamentable failure
of his attempt to induce Senator Flint
to become the machine candidate for
the senate. He had several long talks
with Flint, but could not bulge that
statesman.
Parker has returned to Los Angeles
and Flint has sailed with his family
for Europe to be gone several months.
Mrs. Flint was bitterly opposed to re-
naming in Washington even if her
husband had been put in the cabinet,
which, it is said, was among the pos
sibilities. Senator Flint shared in her
view that public life in Washington
was a losing game.
He toldParker that under no circum-
stances could he be induced to run
again for the senate. He added, more
over, that he was going to Europe to
get away from the opportunities of his
friends Parker laid before Flint the
desperate straits of the demoralized
machine and made it plain that Flint
campaign would cost 'him nothing, but
Flint was obdurate.
They talked over the names of sew
eral men in California who may be
regarded as senatorial timber, and it is
possible that Parker is taking back to
California q suggestion for the machine
choice, but Senator Flint declined to
go into this phase of the matter be-
fore he sailed.

Tex Richards comments upon the
situation were directed more to the
governors action in stopping the fight
in San Francisco than they We're to the
matter of the mayors interference with
the presentation of the films. His ar
raignment of Governor Gillett was di-
rect and unqualified. He said:
IF Gillett had told me that he would
not allow the fight to be pulled off In
this state / would never have thought
of coming here. But Gillett lied and
lied repeatedly. 1 don't believe, for
instance, that Attorney General Webb
ever told Gillett that 1 told him that
this was to be a prize fight.
Webb acted honestly and on the
square with me and I am satisfied in
every way with our mutual dealings.
Moreover, L understand that when Gill

that the fight was a frameup and that
it was fixed for Jeffries to win he had

Ella Flagg Young Elected Pres
ident of National Educa-
tional Association

San Francisco was chosen as the 1911
convention city OF the National Educa-
tionaI association at the session of that
body in Boston yesterday Half dozen
cities were in the fight for the honor,
among them Chicago, which had laid
its plans early.
News of the victory was conveyed
to the San Francisco convention league
in a telegram received last night from
L. E. Armstrong. editor of the Sierra
News. who is one of the four California
delegates attending the Boston conven-
ton. =
San Francisco went into the fight in
earnest this year. establishing head
quarters from which the campaign was
carried on. This city was to have been
the scene of the 1906 convention. but
the fire sent it to Los Angeles. 1t was
again chosen last year. but because of
the fear that a suitable convention hall
could not be provided Boston was later
substituted.
Delegates Attend
This year. backed by the funds of the
San Francisco Convention league. a
committee of four. consisting of Super
intendent of Schools Alfred Roncovieri
L. E. Armstrong. superintendent of the
Oakland Schools ]. W. McClymonds and
Superintendent of the San Diego City
Schools Duncan MacKinnon, was sent to
Boston.
Poppy badges were distributed. Cali

to the. Boston convention were lavishly
entertained.
The convention in July OF next year
is expected to bring to San Francisco
10000 teachers and their friends from
every, corner of the United States. An
effort will also be made TO bring
Theodore Roosevelt to the coast to
make the principal address.
The claims of San Francisco were
yesterday presented TO the convention
by superintendent Roncovieri. who ex-'
tolled San Francisco's reputation as
host to visitors. He reviewed the re-
habilitation of the city after the fire OF
1905. dwelt upon its commercial as
cendancy and the efficiency of it's
schools
One Way Fare
He explained that the railroads had
greed to charge a one way rate for
the round trip. and promised that the
hotels and restaurants would deal with
the crowds as hosts to guests. Ron
covieri also told the delegates of the
Panama Pacific exposition to be held
here In 1915, and as an instance of the
city's unbounded confidence in its own
destiny cited the results of the Pan
a-Pacific mass meetings. at which
millions were pledged for the fair.
The convention league IS now en-
deavoring to obtain for this city the
Eagles convention TO be held In August
and September of next year. This. it

McCarthy's Logic Disputed

The man who promoted the contest,
or sparring match, or whatever it was
that was held at Reno Independence
day, doesn't like Governor Gillett a lit
tie bit. On the other hand, he says
that he has nothing against Mayor Nc
Carthy, but can't quite understand the
logic of the 1atter's attitude in stop

= Rickard advanced the suggestion that
If the argument between Johnson and
Jeffries was really such a brutal affair
the best way of convincing people
that such things should cease for all
time would be to let them go and gaze
upon 1ifelike pictures of the brutality
in question.
Whether any steps will be taken by
the picture owners to contest Mayor
McCarthy's prohibition of their pres
entation in San Francisco is a matter
still unsettled. Attorney Henry G. w.

Interview in Chicago About

Tex Rickard is not worrying about
the ban placed by Mayor Mccarthy on
the moving pictures of the Johnson
Jeffries dispute last Monday at Reno.
Rfckard dismissed the subject lightly
yesterday as one for the attorneys of
the picture people to deal with and one
which probably would right itself.
Rickard, however, did have something
to say on another subject, and he ex-
pressed himself in the most decided
language. The gist of his statement
was that Governor Gillett was a liar,
and that he had taken a few too many
highballs on the day he gave out the
purported interview in Chicago regard
ing the coming meeting of the heavy
weight champions.

Walters do not like the man who

Of it to the man who serves him, with
the promise that he shall have the
other half If he gives satisfaction. A
veteran waiter describes to a writer
in the New York u an experience
with a man who resorted to this de-
vice.
Il took pains to serve him poorly.
to show him that l did not care for
his money" said the waiter. Il was
so careless that when he was leaving
he refused me the other half. l was
sure he was a miser, anyhow.
Il pointed out to hin that the piece
he had was no good to him as it was,
and offered to buy it from him for
two dollars.
HE thought deeply a minute and
declined.
Then I offered to sell him my hall
for three dollars. Somehow or other
this appealed to him, and he bought
it and seemed happy.
