The warning to watch Florida's fish
supply all the more closely now that
meat is so high. as conveyed in the fol-
lowing extracHfrom an editorial in the
st. Augustine Record. is one that should
be needed 10y all in a position to see
that the laws are enforced to the letter.
Nov that meat is so high there will
he extraordinary demands on our fish
and our waters will be cleared of every
thing eatable unless we take care. If
we cant get meat cheap it is all the
more important that we keep some fish
at home and every Floridan should
now constitute himself deputy game
warden; if he don't he is blind to bis
own interests and careless ofthe future
of his children. Many of us have been
trying for years to nullify the efforts
to preserve our fish and game: take
warning now and let public opinion
everywhere demand a rigid enforcement
of the law. That much is demanded in
the immediate present.

JAPANESE PLOT TO MINE MANILA
BAY FOR PURPOSE OF BLOW
ING UP WARSHlPS AT ANCHOR
AGE THERE REPORTED TODAY.
(Herald Specially

Manila, P. l., Dec. 2S.-A Japanese
plot to mine Manila Bay for the pur-
pose of blowing up American war
ships at anchorage there in the event
OF hoslilities between the United
States and Japan was discovered here
today, according to persistent reports
in military circles. A quantity of
high explosives were found in the Jap
anese quarters, which give rise to
the report.
Colonel VIM P Duvall, command
ing the department, has assumed per-
sonal charge of the search for ex-
plosives. 1t is reported that the plan
was to plant the mines close to the
bottom of the anchorage of the war
ships so they could be discharged
with electricity from The shore.
There is considerable excitement in
military and naval circles over this
latest japanese scare. Officers refuse
to talk publicly, fearing to incur the
wrath of General Duvall, who warned
them to give out no information.

Secretary Knox Active.

Washington, Dec. 27-Secretary
Knox has taken measures to prevent
so far as he consistently can the out
break of a revolution against Presi-
dent Dayilla in Honduras. He has
addressed communications to the four
other Central American republics, re-
minding them of their pledges at the
treaty of Washington and explaining
that he is confident they will prevent
any armed expeditions crossing their
borders into Honduras. There is no
official information at hand to ac-
tually show that the Hornet is bound
for Honduran port, but the suspic-
ions of the Central American diplo-
matte corps are aroused and the state
department has felt it prudent to have
the naval vessels, Tacoma and York
town, along the Honduran coast to
protect If necessary American life and
property.

Austin, Texas, Dec. 27.-The state
department of education today re-
ceived from the printer bulletin
showing the scholastic population and
the state apportionment of the avail
able school fund for the fiscal year

is 96S,269, the amount apportioned at
$3.50 per capita being S6,293,74S. The
counties receiving the apportionment
number 244 and the Independent
school districts 545.
The census shows II blind, 2OS
deaf and dumb and 2S2 feeble-minded
children within the scholastic age.
The fact that the number of feeble
minded children shown in the census
exceeds the number of deaf and dumb
and blind is regarded by advocates Of
a state school for feeble-minded chill
dren as. an evidence of the correct
ness of their contention This has
recently been recommended by sew
