terday's Marvellous Feat of
Aviator.

Los Angeles, Cal, Jan. 15.-Paul-
han is feeling the strain attending his
spectacular performances in the avia-
tion field. He appeared haggard today
and when told that the aviation COM
mittee is considering the extension of
the meeting until January oath, Paul
han Immediately objected, saying that
he could not possibly keep US his
work another week. The project was
then abandoned. A cloudy sky and
wind greeted the aviators this morn
ing. Paulhan looked hopefully at the
sky and said he would not mind a lit
tile storm for then he could rest. New
ertheless he is preparing for the
flight to the Echo mountains, back of
Pasadena, when the weather permits.
| This would necessitate a flight of ap-
proXimate fifty miles over Los Ange-
les, and would pale yesterdays per-
formance, when he flew out to the har-
| Dor Of San Pedro, over the fortifica-
tions there and returned. He passed
, over the big guns on Palos Verve hills
at height of nine hundred feet. And
when it was realized he could have
thrown three or four hundred pounds
of explosives down among them, a
hint of future fears mingled with the
pleasure of spectators "Will the aero
plane be effective in war;" They are
now!" said Paulhau.

it's beautiful library building on
Washington avenue. During the past
year, there were paid $4,000 on the
debt and $20S interest. In addition
to this, there were expended 1,374.50

other purposes which the Board has
made its domain. The receipts dur

New York, Jan. 15.-An article,
dated New York. has appeared in
this mornings papers with reference
to a petition filed by Vice-President
Adams to chance the name of the local
Postal Telegraph Company in New

distorted and the story is denied, be-
cause of it's falsity.
The Postal people vigorouly deny
any truth in the statement that the
change of name of the Postal Tele-

connection with any plan for mer,

Superintendents Cannot Be Supply
Agents.
Territorial Superintendent Of Pub

Gentlemen: 1t has come to my at
tention that some of the county super
intendents of New Mexico have been
induced by certain agents of school
supplies to act in the capacity of rep
resentatives for supply houses with a
view to furnishing the various dis.
tricts of the respective counties with
alleged needed helps. Since certain
irregularities have been reported
whereby county superintendents are
to receive commissions on sales OF
these supplies, I think it advisable to
call your attention to Section Z, Chap
ter 119, Laws of 1908, found on page
1856 of the latest compilation of schoo
laws for our territory.
This section provides that schoo
directors are required to consult witt
and solicit the cooperation of county
superitendents whenever it become!
necessary to purchase furniture, fix
lures, etc. This provision is yer!
proper since the county superintend
ent is supposed to know what sup
plies are most needed and what typ
of supplies are most serviceable
furthermore, the county superintend

proval of warrants submitted by d

Chicago Facing Bad Weather
and Worlds Series May Be
Postponed.
WOULD ALTER SCHEDULE
Under Rules 1t May Be Necessary to
Play Three Successive Days in
Illinois City.

Chicago, Oct. 19.-The third game
of the worlds series may not be play
ed here tomorrow, as scheduled.
Weather predictions are for rain to
night or Thursday. A supplemental
forecast was for rain in the morning
but the remainder Of the day cold and
gloomy. The grounds are well drain
ed and dry quickly, so it is said unless
rain falls in the afternoon the field
will be good enough for game. AS an
additional precaution, however, the
field was today covered with straw and
canvas.
May Play Three I'm Chicago.
According to the rule if the game is
postponed or drawn the teams will re-
main in Chicago until two games have
been played. The rules also declare
the Sunday game, if fifth game is
necessary, shall be played in Chicago,
regardless of all else. Thus If it is
impossible on account of the weather
tomorrow to play game, it must be
played off Saturday in this city, in
stead of the game regularly scheduled
for Philadelphia on that date. Rain
tomorrow therefore may mean there
will be three games in succession play
ed on the local grounds, Friday, Satur-
day and Sunday. This is certain,
should Chicago win one or both the
games Friday and Saturday

Moline West Ends and Spring Valley
Tigers to Meet at Exposition

The West End football team of Mo
line will play a game in this city Sun
day afternoon, though not against a
local team. The Spring Valley Tigers
are to be the opponents of the Blue
and White and the outlook is that a
close battle will result. Last year the
Spring Valley aggregation gave the
West Ends a remarkably hard game
and except for one other team it was
the only one which kept its goal line
from being crossed by the Moliners
The latter won the game by a score of
to on a drop kick. The West End
lineup is somewhat unsettled and some
new faces may appear in it in the next
game, but the prospects are that any
changes which may be made will
strengthen the team. The game will
be played at Exposition park commenc-
ing at O'Clock.

Chicago, Oct. 10. Chicago fan.

Chicago, Oct. 10. - Chicago fans
are looking for rainbow.
The confidence that prevailed Mon
! day and yesterday is now but a hope
! for a bright tomorrow. The san
guine army of Cub fans that almost
doubled it's recruits about . the
countless scoreboards and hundreds
| of tickers in the city, and also dou-
/ bled its bets of the day previous in the
/ belief that the National leaguers would
reverse the 4 to 1 surprise of the
| inaugural, with reliable Mordecai
| Brown on the slab, left part of its
confidence and all of the wagers be-
hind when the disappointed throngs
scattered last evening partially
stunned by the to 8 humiliation of
their idols in the second battle for
the worlds championship.
No one can say that Chicago
plungers are poor losers. But there
was no scurrying to place wagers
that the Cubs would take the third
battle in Chicago on Thursday. If
the betters have any idea that they
can still play even," despite the
Z
Cubs, that notion is one for serious
elaboration. At least, they welcome
the one-day hiatus as "a hours for
some reflection.
Confidence High at Noon.
No dark pail hung over Chicago
fandOm at noon yesterday. The in
ittal defeat had failed to feck the
optimistic skies with a single dark
cloud. In the various sporting es-
Establishments about the city Cub fans
fought with one another to get a
bet on the West Siders before the
score was so lopsided that Athletic
hackers would refuse TO plunge on
a hopeless proposition.
New York plungers, hearing that
there was American league money in
Chicago, wired their commission
house to take all the Mack coin in
sight. The news that Detroit bet
tiers had flooded the town with gold
to lay on the Athletics at evens was
hailed with delight. Some of the
Cub hackers asked 3 to odds that
Chance and his warriors would come
back in the second game, but few Of
these bets were taken, Philadelphia
supporters holding out for even
money and getting it, so anxious
were the National league admirers
to make good Mondays losses on
what looked to them a "cinch."
