RAISE MONEY FOR SCHOOL
NEGROES OF NEW ORLEANS PuR-
CHASE SITE FOR ANOTHER
SCHOOL BUILDING - SCHOOL
BOARD IMPRESSED WITH EF-
FORTS OF NEGROES AND DE-
eide TO ERECT BUILDING.

New Orleans, LATHE New Or
leans school board has decided to
grant the colored people of the Sew
enth ward a public school for their
children. The negro citizens OF the
ward have organized an educatlonal
league and under the auspices OF the
organization recently gave an enter
tainment for the purpose of raising
funds with which to buy a place for
the erection of a public school build
ing.
over one thousand dollars has been
raised and paid on account OF pub
lie school building. November 10
the payment will be increased to
$500. The school officials have been
very much impressed with the efforts
of the negro citizens to secure a school
in the Seventh ward and have decided
to put up a school building on the
property recently purchased by the
colored citizens. The new institution
will increase the number of colored
schools in the state of Louisiana to
1,044 and the number of school prop
critics turned over to the state by ne
groes for school purposes to 64S.
Have Given Much Property for
Schools.
According to the last report of the
state superintendent. there are 1882
schools in the state for white chill
dren. OF this number of school prop
critics. the white people have fur
nished 435 and the state 1917. 1t will
be seen that the whites have not CIV
en- as much property to the state for
school purposes as have the colored'
but have received more from 1t than
have the colored by very large odds.
II is said that the school board has
selected for the present and until
building has been put up on the place
bought by the colored people, build
ing with something like twenty rooms
on Allen and Miro streets and will put
eight teachers in 1t to accommodate
the Seventh ward colored children.
The name the board will give the
school is the Miro school.
The Seventh Ward Educational
league is headed by Rev. Alfred Law
less, Jr, pastor of Straight University
chapel, one of the most tireless and
energetic members of the race in the
city of New Orleans as we'll as one
of the best equipped, educationally
speaking. 1t is reported that he will
be offered the principalship of the
new school. Helping him in the work
of getting the school were DR.. |. ].
Kane, first vice-president; Walter H.
Adams, second vice-president; John
T. James, secretary; Anthony Doub
let, financial secretary; Louis Mas
pers. treasurer, and Joseph Wiltz. ser
geant-at-arms, officers of the league.
In New Orleans there are eleven pri
mary schools for colored citizens, and
even in some of the wards there is nc
school for negro children. There are
seventeen wards and only eleven
schools for colored children In the
whole city and parish. This does not
include private schools or schools
maintained by churches and societies.
The colored people are doing con
siderable amount of self-help and
their children are not growing up in
ignorance as much as some people
might suppose they are under such
ignoring of them by the state as the
handicap shows.

along the recently formed artificial
banks of the lake and the almost com
plete submergeuce of the islands, the
smaller of which remained covered un-
til the morning of the 10th.
On this date the lava is again falling
and has reached level of $50 feet
below the station, which is the lowest
level of she present era of subsistence.
The island moved westward on the
9th as a result of violent movement
in the convection currents of the lake.
At this time and on the Sth, the ennis
sion of gas from the lava was very
great, the blasts of gas bursting out
from under the bank with considerable
pressure.
If the Kilauea lava were less fluid
and had the consistency of the lava of
Vesuyius or Etna, there would be heavy
explosions and lava bombs would be
projected hundreds of feet above the
crater. The activity of the lake is
still very great and it is regrettable
that so MANY persons visit the crater
only at night when the scene, although
more spectacular, is far less interest
ing than by day, as the details of the
crater are invisible.
A large gas vent has developed
under what remains of the north black
ledge. This is, at present, low tenn
perature vent and deposits sulphur in
large quantities.
The downfall of the walls continues
internationally but is effected more
gently and gradually than before and
large columns and pyramids of rock
become detached, lean over and sink
slowly downward into the talus below.
1t has been demonstrated that the
diurnal rise and fall of the lava col
umns does not follow the diurnal max
ina and minima of barOmetric pressure.
The north and south shores have very
recently grown outward into the lake
making it narrower in a north-south
direction, while remaining very long
east and west.
The seismicity has averaged from 5
to dpring the week. Maximum tenn
peratne 10 deg, Sept. 5; minimum
SO deg. Sept. 7
Sticks placed across a crack in the
crater wall south of the station dropped

TOO LATE TO INVITE

Chamber of Commerce Hears the
Presidents Itinerary Is
Finally Fixed.
(From Thursday,s AdvertIser. }

(trom Thursdays Advertiser.)
The trustees of the chamber of com
merce decided at meeting yesterday
afternoon not to invite President Taft
to visit Honolulu when he reaches San
Francisco next month.
There was considerable discussion on
the question and President spalding
stated that the President Is itinerary
had already been fixed. In view OF his
it was decided that it would be limos
sible for the President to come here
anyway, and that it was too late in
the day to Issue an invitation with any
hope of its acceptance.
There was much discussion in regard
TO Inc Mediterranean fruit-hy and a
possible quarantine on pineapples. Al
bert Waterhouse reported that there
WAS not much danger of this. =. X.

with Mr.. Carnes and will also confer
with Mr.. Ehrhorn when he gets back.
1t was stated that story that the
truit'iiy was breeding in the pineapple
dump was erroneous, as it was the
vinegar fly, and not the pest, which Wis
found there. The committee thinks
there should not be any thing printed
about the fmit.Ay unless it is given out

CITY TO buy TWO
SEAGRbVE FIRE AUTOS
Compromise Report of Commit
tee to Split the Order Was
OuNoted.

That Murray is still the big boss was
demonstrated last evening when the
board of supervisors threw down the
report of the FIRE committee in regard
to buying automobile fire apparatus and
voted on an entirely different propo-
sition, the Sehuman Carriage Company
being awarded the contract for furnish
ing the city with two Seagrave fire
trucks to cost $l0,500.
Chairman Arnold of the fire commit
tee submitted report that the city
should purchase one Knox aud one Sea
grave machine. Mcclellan said he had
II few words to speak to the beard be-
fore the vote was taken, to the effect
that by general usage the lowest bid
should be accepted, if the article of
fered was of as high value as any sub
mitted.
tThe committee in its report i s
stamped both the Seagrave and Knox
ears as suitable for the work in this
city, and beth have passed the speei-
fications, said Mcclellan. "By buy
ing two Seagrave instead OF one Knox
and one Seagrave car there will be a
saving of fsyeral hundred dollars to
the county. The Knox car costs 5000
while the Seagrave is offered for $500,
and two Seagrave cars for $4,000. /
understand there is report here from
Chief Thurston of the fire department.
I should like to have that read before
anything is done on this matter,p con
cluded Mcclellan.
Thurston Says seagrave.
In the report of the FIRE chief that
official stated it as his belief thai the
Seagrave was the car to buy, inasmuch
as the Vancouver department had elev-
en- of these machines and all were Civ
ing perfect satisfaction.
Mcclellan then moved TO table the
report of the fire committee md adopt
the report of Chief Thurston, calling
for two Seagrave machines.
This motion was carried by AmPna.
Dwight, Kruger and Mcclellan voting
YES, and Arnold and Low voting no,
Murray excused.
Following the passage Of this motion,
the Democratic member PVT another to
the effect that Sehuman Carriage Com
panyis bid for furnishing these two
machines for 10000 be accepted, and
this was carried nOnsly, every
