TROOPS WHO FOUGHT THE
FOREST FIRES PRAISED
Supt. Logan Especially Commends
the Men Of the 26th Infantry,
Colored.

Secretary Ballinger of the Interior De-
partment has transmitted to the War De-
partment letter from W. r. Logan, SUI
perintendent of the Glacier National Park
i'm Montana, commencing the United
States troops that were called out to fight
the forest fires. which caused SO much
devastation in that state. The letter fol-
lows:
Il deem it only proper that / call your
attention to the splendid work done by
the troops fighting fires in Glacier Ma
tional Park. Col. Nancy, in command of
the troops from Fort. Assinniboine, was
alive to the situation and he and his COM
mand did splendid work. The enlisted
stood the hardships without a muir
muir. working alongside of civlians who
were drawing q cents an hour and board
of the very best that money could buy.
Maj. Hasbrook and his command from
Fort Harrison, Mont, deserve ] equal
praise with the command under Col.
Nancy.
Il had ore company of the 25th Infan-
try tcolored) stationed at Fort Essex, I'M
der the command of Lieut.. w. s. Mapes.
| doubt if l can say enough in praise of
Lieut.. Mapes and his negro troops The
work performed by them could not be i'm
proved upon by any class of men. To
their lot fell the worst fire in the park
and they went at its extinguishment with
snap and energy, built roads and trails
and miles of fire guard trenches without
the least sign of discomfort"

WESTERN HIGH SCHOOL
STUNNED BY JAN|T0RS
Four in One Week and None
Now-AIso No Physical
Culture Teacher.

Western High School is without a teach
er of physical culture and has lost four
janitors within a week
The janitorS left because they found the
job too big for them. is the explanation of
the school authorities The absence of a
teacher of physical culture is topic
taboOed by both \. I. Stuart, Superin-
tendent of schools in the District. and P.
NJ. Hughes. assistant superintendent of
white schools.
Until three years ago William Foley.
now athletic director Of the Eastern and
Central high schools. was in charge at
Western. Later DR.. William B. Hudson,
athletic director of Business High School,
took charge. The board of education will
soon consider the appointment of an in
structor of physical culture 'at the West
ern High School. For the present that
| subject will be eliminated from the
course.
AS to the resignation of the four jam
itOrs, that circumstance is blamed wholly
| on the Iact that the janitors found the
| job too large in view or additions recently
the additional rooms, number of heat
| ing machines. fans and other devices,
| which must be looked after. as well as
| keeping an eye on the boys.
The janitOr handed in his resignation
| last Saturday. to take effect Monday.
| The new janitor who showed up held the
| job Monday, then quit. JanitOr No. !
| held on for two days. but on the third
day was gone. Janitor No. took his
place. holding the position for one day.
The building is now being looked after
| by Hugh McQueeney, superintendent OF
| ianitors. a new man has promised to as
sumo the duties at Western Monday.
The janitor problem is blamed upon the
! system in the Schools bV
authorities of paying a janitor a salary.
| but forcing him to pay out Of that sal
airy for whatever additional help may be
| needed.
A new plan will be presented to Con-
gress at the next session. If approved
a janitOr will receive a, salary and what
ever help he needs will be paid for other

CHINESE ARE SATISFIED.
Result of immigration Investigation
at Angel Island, Cal.

Complaints of Chinese merchants
against the methods of the immigration
officers at Angel Island. Cal, have been
disposed of by Secretary Nagel or the De-
partmept of Commerce and Labor in a
manner said to be satisfactory IN the
main to the complainaEts. The Secretary
decided that in certain cases the exami-
nation of incoming Chinese might take
place on the mainland at San Francisco
and that friends of the immigrants, with
their counsel. might be present, but not
participate. The Secretary holds that the
examination is an executive function. and
that it would assume a. judicial aspect if
others than the immigration officers were
permitted to take part in it.
The charges preferred against Immigra-
ton Commissioner Hart III. North have
been referred to the bureau Of immigra-
ton and naturalization for investigation
and recommendation. The bureau has
not yet reported in the matter.
