POLICE COURT

Clerk Weed three times called in
good voice and sonorous yesterday
in the district court "Dontcherknow,
Dontcherknow."
The police in the room woke up
with a start, Judge Monsarrat glanced
anxiously at the docket and a bright
reporter held up his hand and mar
rowly escaped being fined for CON
tempt of court.
1t turned out that Weed wasn't
dreaming that he was examining a
class but was calling for the appear
ance of a Russian man charged with
illegally restraining the liberty of a
countrywoman.
The judge was so tickled with the
mans name that he discharged him
on the spot.
Gustave Schmidt, charged by HUI

city to a horse, was fined $40 and

WATERFOWL GOES
WITHOUT SCHOOL

About eighty children of school age
in WATERFOWL the site of the new
Pearl Harbor naval station, will prob
ably be compelled to go without in
struction this year.
Immediately after the adjournment
of the legislature last spring Superin-
tendent Pope, of the department of
public instruction, called the superv,s-
ors' attention to the needs of the de-
partment in the way of schools, in
Guiding that of Watertown but ap-
parently no attention whatever was
paid to the matter. Yesterday Super
visor Eben Low advised the superin-
tendent that it was out of question
tc expect the County to provide new
building at Watertown, because there
is no money that may be used for
the purpose; nor will it be possible to
secure temporary quarters that are
suitable.
The two teachers who were appoint
ed for the Pearl Harbor school will be
worked in somewhere else, and the
truant officer advised that Watertown
children are exempt from the law com
polling school attendance.

CAR REVIEWS
THE BOY SCOUTS

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug 1O.-The
review of the Boy Scouts by the Tsar
today was a delightful spectacle. The
vast expanse of the Mars Field was
checkered by the scarlet, green,
white and khaki uniforms of the tiny
warriors, whose evolutions were
watched with delight by immense
crowds. The bright sunshine was
tempered by breeze.
AS the emperor and his suite rode
down the lines, greeting each detach-
ment, the boys answered in Russian
soldier fashion, 1--WE wish good health
to your majesty" Each separate COM
mand then demonstrated it's special
aptitudes. To the accompaniment Of
their own bands they went through
drills and gymnastic exercises. The
Tashkent battalion produced some eX-
cellent fencers; the Odessa contingent,
1000 strong, showed admirable train
ing; there was football team, which
kicked the ball among the imperial
suite, much to the TsaT's amusement;
and small firemen climbed dummy
houses. The march past of the 5000
boys lasted forty minutes. One little
drummer was five years old. A tiny
