consideration of the provision relat-
ing to the assessment of property for
the improvement OF streets, there
was a split and the subject was
passed without being decided.
The provision provides that in or
der to defeat a petition for street inn
provements a remOnstrance contain
ing the names of property owners
owning three-fOurths of the area of
the street to be benefited must be
presented, and that within 10 days
after the publication of the notice to
improve the street the remonstrance
must be filed
Mr.. Buren took the stand that the
provision not only raised the number
of signers reQuired-the present
charter providing for two-thirds, but
that 1t shortened the time in which
the property holders could remon-
strate, 20 days now being allowed.
The question was discussed at
length and will come up for final dis
position at the next meeting-Tues-
day evening.

Denver, the International Typo

tional arbitration agreement with the
American Newspaper Association.
Under the new arrangements, To-
cal arbitration boards will be estab-
lished to hear all disputes, these
boards 10 consist Of five members,

nection with or direct interest in any

Four members shall elect a fifth

shall be disinterested party.
An appeal from these local boards
may be taken to the international ar
bitration board but the international
shall hear no new evidence.
Piece work will be abolished defin-
itely in the printing industry If the
referendum ordered by the conven-
tion, on the recommendation of
President Lynch, is adopted by the
membership.
The proposed law, which Is de-
signed to supersede the Salt Lake
amendment adopted last May, pro-
vldes that all piece scales and bonus
scales be abolished by local unions
at the earliest moment possible and
that in the meantime the interna-
tional officers shall underwrite all
such scales which have thus far been
negotiated.
Another proposition entrusted to
the council was the attempt to Sc

Black Patti Company.

The Black Patti company in "In the
Jungles," which comes to the Cen
nett theater Thursday for one per-
Torrance, is one of the largest and
oldest negro companies on the road to-
day. being in it's sixteenth successful
season. The principals are conceded
to be the pick of the colored perform
ers in the country and together with
the chorus give pleasing perform
ance.
The book of "In the Jungles" is the
work of j. Ed Green and w. A. Cooke,
music and lyrics by Will Marion
Cooke and Alex. Rogers, and is said
to contain abundant material to
amuse and entertain. The Binghamp-
ton, N. Y, papers in speaking of the
performance given at the Stone opera
house by the Black Patti company said
that in the Jungles," as presented at
that popular playhouse was the equal
Of and the superior to many musical
shows given by entirely white artists.
II you enjoy good music, good comedy
and an elaborate stage setting, don't
miss seeing "In the Jungles" when it
comes to the local playhouse.

In places In tho Colorado desert are
stream beds where perhaps once In
several years heavy rains in distant
mountains will cause water to dow for
q short time. In these dry water
courses several varieties Of stunted
tree forms are often found. The des-
ert willow, which resembles the willow
with which we are familiar, though
smaller in size; the val verde. or>green
tree, tree which is bright green
from trunk to tip of limb in every
twig. and the ironwood. SO dense in
flber that 1t turns an AXIS edge. are the
principal varieties. They are rarely
above twenty feet high and. like all
desert vegetation, have not q leaf.
They are apparently outcasts from
the two great tree divisions. deciduous
and citrus. for they have leaves nei-
Their to lose nor to keep. These may
be called the living dogs Of the tree
family. We will find here also the
dead linhs.
Not far from the mountain range we
will come upon the remains OF what
were once extensive forests Of gigantic
trees. now turned to stone and lying
as they fell centuries ago. The great
trunks, perfect In grain. knot and bark
fiber. cumber the ground in tangled
confusion in those places which have
been protected from the drifting sand,

on his shoulder. Mr.. Dolliver. anxious
to do good at any time. stopped his
horse and said: Good morning. my
son. Where are you going this fine
day with a mattock on your shout

The young fellow answered: II am

He Drew the Line.

Old John was lawyers confidential
clerk. and he had the pernicious habit
of going to a neighboring saloon every
morning at II o'clock and taking a
small glass Of whisky. He was not
proud of this habit; hence after the
whisky he always took a Glove.
But one morning it happened that
there were no cloves on the bar. and
John. after having considered the mat
ter ate small raw onion from the
free lunch tray. That would destroy
the telltale whisky odor. no doubt. as
we'll as the Glove had always done.
and. so thinking. he returned to his
desk.
1t was a double desk. At it he and
his employer sat face to face. John
on his return was soon aware that his
employer noticed something. The
mans nostrils quivered. he shifted.
and finally. with a grimace Of disgust.
he broke out:
Look here. John: I've stood whisky
and Glove for nineteen years. but l
draw the line at whisky and on;ons!"

Buckskin clothing was in the early
days of the western country almost
universal. among the frontiersmen at
least. When the railroad first went
through Idaho an old trapper came
down out Of the mountains and was
standing on the platform Of . little sta
ton. His buckskin trousers, soaked
and stretched by the rain and the melt
ing snow OF the winter and then dried
and shrunk by the August sun. bagged
most wonderfully at the knees. A ten
derfoot who stood near by observed
him with interest for several minutes.
Then he walked over to him and in
quired:

don't you Jump"
