program was a debate between

Jones, and Rice Levi and James
BIencowe. The subject was.
Resolved that the United States

Navy and was well handled by
both sides.

A WHALE IN A HURRY.

The Truthful Mariner Tells How Fast
the Big Fellow Went
Sometimes you can put an ircn into
a whale and he won't splash on the
surface, but will start or like rocket
or perhaps viii so right down and YOU
have 10 cut loose and lose your line
and irons" said the truthful old mar
liner.
1--WE were lying becalmed one day of
the Cape OF Good Hope BY and by
we saw two or three whales coming
up TO blow about two miles away.
'The captain called the watch I'D.
and couple Of boats started for the
whales, which were lying still, as If
summing themselves. We raced with
the other boat and got ahead, for my
men were 1.-the and tough, and by and
by we got alongside of one of the big
fellows. The steering orr was pulled
In, the oars were packed-that is, piled
in so that they couldn't strike the
water-then an iron was thrown into
the floating island
1.-THE whale lay still for q moment,
as If struck with amazement that any
one should dare TO touch him. Sudden
ly he made up his mind what to do.
He started off like a locomotive. the
rope whizzing around IN way to as
tonish 4 landlubber. When the rope
was out we were rushing by the cap
tain's boat Ike mad
"All we could do in that double end
ed boat was to sit still aud see her go
through the water. | candidly believe
that we went at the rate Of n mile a
minute, and the water was very
wonderful sight. 1t reminds mS now
that l think Of it, of Poe's description
OF the interior OF the maelstrom.
where the water went round so fast
and was so black that II must have
seemed like 4 wall OF polished ebony
'@The pressure downward piled the
water up on both sides of us so that
it seemed 20 be at least three feet
higher than the edge of the boat. but
1t couldn't run in, for we were going
so fast II hadn't time.
Every ones eyes were blurred with
the wind, which seemed to be blowing
n hurricane against us. II looked as II
the whale would never get tired out.
and we were going to sea ut an amaz-
ing rate. The ship went away as If by
magic. and we had lost sight OF the
other boat Finally the line all Mt once
slackened
'"The whale hadn't stopped and. for
all know. is going ahead at the rate
Of mile minute still. but the iron
had come out.
1--WE rowed back to the ship, and as
we came along the captain called over
the rail:

For State Wide Prohibition.

The executive committee of the
Virginia Anti-Saloon League has
decided that it is time to wage a
campaign for Statewide prohibi-
ton, and it is announced that this
will be the action of the league
when it meets in annual convention
at Newport News in February of
next year.
1t will be necessary for the
question TO be submitted to the
Legislature when it convenes in
1912, the majority Of the members
Of which will have to be elected
next year. The expediency of
submitting the question to a vote
Of the people has been before the
Anti-Saloon League at every meet
ing for several years, but no formal
demand on the Legislature for
submission to the people was ever
made. At the last session of the
Legislature Senator Strobe, of his
own accord, introduced an enabling
act, which was defeated.
State Secretary McAllister, of
the league, SAY the decision to
begin a campaign was reached at a
meeting of the executive committee
in Richmond last Friday, which
was largely attended. This is
taken TO mean that The liquor
question will be a paramount issue
in State politics for the next two
years.

4 NEW INQUIRY
 ABOUT PATTERSON
Not Who Struck His But Who He
 Is.

C. D. Jones, charged with utterine forged or fictitious check, was ex- amined by Justice Parker yesterday and held. On September ,, accom- panied by an acquaintance of ter years who never knew his name, he offered a check for $23 to E. A Starr who accepting his statement and that of his friend whom MT Starr knew was working in the Mar lar threshing outfit, cashed the check That is he gave him s5 that night and SIS the next morning.
 The check bore the name of the Marian company and was drawn on the Phoenix National bank in favor of one E. J. Patterson who is more or less of mythical character.
 When it was found that the check was spurious a search for Patter- son was made He was found in jail where he had been locked UT for drunkenness He denied that his name was Patterson or that he had ever called himself by that name but he was identified by his ac- auaintance who had introduced him to MT Starr as the man who had the check. This acquaintance had seer no third party that might have had an interest in it though Patterson who now said that his name was D c. Jones said that the check had beer given him to cash on commission by Patterson who also worked for the Marian outfit.
 After the facts regarding the tran saction had been given in court yes terday Jones prefaced his offense by the statement that at the time al this was happening he was under the Influence" and had been fol some time before and after unti he was given a chance to sober up 1T jail.
 His acquaintance described the diff ficulty they had had in getting tho check cashed. They had peddled al the saloons on Washington stree without results and then they sought another street and gradually worked their way to Starr's corral where theil efforts were crowned with success In the meantime Jones has failed tC throw any light on the whereabout! of Patterson, the only man on eartf who can be of any service to him il this matter, if there is such a man

THE COLORED SCHOOL
 NOT WELL PATR0NIzfO
Only About Twenty-Five Per Cent of
 Children In Attendance.

Only nineteen colored children have been enrolled in the new Madison school, about one-fourth of the col ored children of school age in the city. It is understood that the par ents of the others are awaiting the result of the injunction suit against the school board restraining them from the segregation of children. This question has recently been passed upon by Judge Doan of Cochise coun- ty in a decision adverse to the appli- cants and sustaining the right of the school board to segregate.
 Though a large majority of the colored residents of Phoenix are op- posed to segregation all are not. The following statement was furnished The Republican last night by those who believe that the colOred children will be benefited by segregation:
 Trash drifts where it is not wanted. but the heart of all races will stand as a race and on race princi- pies.
 Therefore, we, who feel it is our duty to stand up as representatives of the race and for that which is not degrading and as patrons and tax payers of the school district feel that the colored school building reflects credit in every way and de monstrates a square deal, an equa chance to all.
 We feel that the board of trustees are trying to do their duty as se of men who are possessed or th' highest principles, which principles of justice no one should question that is, with good will toward all ant malice toward none.
 Therefore. we, the leading coloret citizens. take great pleasure in con graduating the board. We feel tha | it is an advance step toward helpin; our children and an opportunity 10 our colored teachers. We feel tha it is a great benediction and wll ! prove a helping hand to build up pur manhood and womanhood, througl mental and manual training.

An Indian Judge ON Drink.

The following expression of opin-
ion, recently given by the Sessions
Judge of Umballa, India, who has to
deal with the effects of an unwise
excise license policy, is worthy of
consideration. Speaking from the
bench, he said:
THE abuse of intoxicating liquor
and the facility with which strong
drink is obtained under the new ex-
else rules are, l am afraid, largely
responsible for this lamentable in
crease in violent crime. In nearly
all the recent cases in which capital
sentence has been passed, drink was
at the bottom of the crime. In the
interests of orderly administration,
some restriction should, l think, be
placed on the supply of spirituous
liquors. Murder is a worse crime
than illicit distillation.''
License produces the same trou-
Bile everywhere, but some license adj
vocates seem more shocked at some
Illicit liquor selling under prohibit
ton, than at the requent murder I'M
der license, caused by the open sa-
doom.

Coming Home from Market,

The other day we noticed him as
he came across the bridge, with his
wagon full of cotton, chickens, and
eggs. He found ready market for
his product, and we thought how
happy his little ones would be when
he returned home in the evening
with toys and dresses, and shoes,
and food for the morrow, and some
clear money in his purse.
We thought we could see his wife
in the doorway to give him a cordial
greeting on his return, so DESTROYS
ones happy and cOntented. We could
almost see his cheerful face as he re
turned to his family after days alb
