Bowen Tcstlfes.


Bowen said in answer to the first
question on the first charge that
LCngbon had said that he would, out
T sympathy raise some Of his grades
If the other examiners would lower
their grades. Witness did not say
that MIR. Longbon had done so but
that merely a remark had been made.
Witness admitted that the whole
board has raised the grades OF two
teachers so as to permit them to pass.
He said Mr.. Longbon asked TO correct
one of his grades as he had mistaken
a blurred -" for "6" and he made
the correction, admitting his mistake
Mr.. Bowen said that as charged In
specification No. Longbon had
agreed with the other examiners to
submit his questions before the ex-
animation Longbon refused to do so,
saying that he did not propose to have
his questions peddled about the streets

until the applicants were ready In the
examination room. Mr.. Bowen was
asked no questions about specification

witness said that Longbon had refused
to sign the certificates issued by a
majority OF the board, In the exam
nation of August 81. Mr.. Longbon
refused to participate In grading the
manuscripts, witness declared.
In the 9th specification II was charg-
ed that Longbon proposed to pass all
applicants to embarrass the board.
Witness said that Mr.. Longbon re-
marked that It might be a good thing
IL the examiners would pass all ap-
plicants and thus give four or five
for each position when but one could
be selected and the rest could go out
and fight the board. He said that Mr.
Longbon never made any such pro-
J. osal but that he had merely remark.

POLITICIANS
 TONIGHT TO SEE
 POLITICAL PLAY

It looks like big night tonight at Polls for included in capacity au- dience will be the entire city official force as box party headed by May or E.. T. Buckingham with City Clerk Boucher in personal charge.
 They will witness the excellent production of The County Chairman a great political comedy drama writ ten by George Ade and many of the epigrams delivered during the course of the play will have a meaning that will come home to several of the local politicians. There will be extra fea- lures included in the program of a surprising nature an altogether 1t will be some evening. The boxes in which the officials will be seated have been appropriately decorated.
 Those who have seen the production Of The County Chairman this week agree that it is the most interesting and most entertaining play of the present season and the manner in which it is produced with twenty speaking parts and sixty people on the stage is credit to Manager Polls enterprise.
 The plot of the play hinges about the struggle for the office of prose cutting attorney in a small Indiana town. a struggle so bitter and with so
  to it that interest is sustained and the plot worked out in a skillful man. ner.
 On one side the candidate is young attorney and law partner of the coun- ty chairman who has trotted him our to oppose a judge wealthy and grasp ing, said judge having by underhand methods won the county chairman's sweetheart and married her. Much of the county chairman's animosity is due to this grudge which he has kept a secret for twenty years. The open ing act shows the town at the time of the convention, the second act shows the opening of the campaign and the final act the receiving of the returns. The second is one of the most elaborate ever staged with school children, fife and drum corps, campaign speeches and the finale with the meeting breaking up in a free fight.
 John Ince gives splendid portrayal of the role of county chairman and Joseph Eggenton and J. Hammond Daley are the rivals for office. Ade has drawn some mighty clever types chief of which is the darkey who sells his vote and wont stay bought which is capitally played by Tommy Williams the best comedian the Poli stock company ever had.
 Between the acts Jack Allmann sings illustrated songs and the electrograph shows amusing views. But few seats remain for the other performances this week.

MOTOR CYCLE COP
 NABS OUR MAYOR

Displaying his proficiency as chauf- feur to his guest, Mayor Edward T. Buckingham yesterday afternoon sent his big Locomobile over a fine stretch of road at Larchmont, N. r.. at such lively clip that a motor cycle police man held the watch on the Bridgeport executive.
 The Mayor and city Engineer Nc. Kenna were driving to New York city, and mayor at the wheel of his Loco mobile touring car, when the fine stretch of roadway unroHed before them. The mayor adjusted his levers for a spurt over the inviting stretch.
 When they slowed down for a curve, along came the motor cycle cop, rais- ing his hand as a signal for them or promptly complied and the police man with equal promptitude inform ed him that he was under arrest. Mayor Buckingham drove his car to police headquarters contributed the usual $25 exacted from negligent mo- torists and then proceeded to New York city. 4
 The motor cyclist said the mayors speed was B miles per hour, Mayor Buckingham did not question the ac- curacy of the policeman's speedome- ter, for his own was out of order. McKenna says our mayor is "some chauffeur"
 Judge Carl Foster maintains that where the thoroughfare is unobstruc- ted and not intersected by cross streets, a speed greater than 25 miles an hour is not violation of the law. but in New York state they do things differently.

INSPECTOR DENIS
 SLY STATEMENT
 ABOUT GRIFFIN.
Especial from United Press.)

Especial from United Press.)
 Quebec, Aug. 4.-"I am not seek ing to compel pr. Crippen to make a complete confession. I am not anxi- ous to secure confession from him. He has said that he is not guilty of murder"
 Inspector Dew of Scotland Yard made this statement today just before leaving Quebec for Niagara Falls on a sightseeing trip. The opinion is prevalent here, however, that Dew would scarcely leave his prisoner at this time unless he had received some satisfactory statement from him.
 The English law is very strict on the subject Of confession. It abso- lutely forbids the making public of any confession obtained from a pri- soner. Any officer revealing the fact of a confession could be prose cuted. It is thought that this legal situation may be responsible for Dew's change of attitude since yesterday when he allowed the inference to go out that Crippen had told him the full story of Belle Elmore's death.
 There are those who still insist that despite Dew's denial of today that he has obtained from his prisoner a full statement of the circumstances sur- rounding the tragedy.

THE FuEaIans.

They Are Stuntsd and Misshapen as
 Wsii%as Hideously Ugly. 5
 At the two extremes of the Amer ican continent dwell the most wretch ed races of beings-the Eskimos at the north and the Fuegians at the south Of the two the Fuegians appear to be the lowest in the civilized scale, their general aspect being wretched and de- graded.
 Their hideously ugly faces express the grossest stupidity, and their per sons are both stunted and misshapen. The average height of the men does not exceed five feet two inches. that of the women four feet eight inches, and owing to their habit of standing in stooping attitude they look even less than their actual height.
 !. But, although they are veritable pyg- mics in stature, yet their bodies are exceedingly large, and their general appearance is such as might result from tacking on to the trunk of a giant the arms and legs of child.
 Their color appears to be copper bronze, but as nearly all are begrimed with smoke it is difficult to specify their precise hue. The very young children are light brown in color with the exception of the palms of the hands and the sples of the feet, which are of dirty yellow.
 The heads of the adults are covered with coarse black hair which falls in lank masses to the neck behind and on each side of the face, but is cut away from before the eyes.
 The forehead is low and retreating, the nose broad, fat and furnished with immense nostrils, and the mouth is very wide, with thick, protruding lips. the upper one being very much elon- gated.
 The eyes are small and placed some what obliquely, the iris is invariably black in color, and the white of the eye has a distinctly yellowish tinge. Moreover. owing apparently to the irri- tation produced by the smoke of the fires over which they are so constant ly crouching, they are very generally blear eyed.
 The teeth, although very much dis colored, are, as a rule, regular and sound. The men have naturally only Q few black bristles scattered over the upper lip and chin. These, however, are carefully extracted from time to time by means of two mussel shells, and very frequently the hair of the eyebrows is removed by a similar process. The males appear to pay no attention whatever to the dressing of their hair, but the women are some what more particular and may ire quently be seen employing in its ar- engagement the toothed jaw of a DOT poise in lieu of comb. = St Louis obe-Democrat.
