COLD WAVE FINDS
 CITY UNPRFP AIRED
WINTER ON WITH RUSH
FREEZING WEATHER COMES WITH SUDDEN NORTHWEST
 EPN STORM.

Although the mlnmnm registered by tic government thermometer was slightly above the freezing point.
 plenty of ice was seen in exposed
 places early this morning, as a result lof a cold wave which swept down from the northwest last night. The
 sudden change from summer to win
 ter found a majority of the people in this city unprepared and this morn. ling there was grand rush to coal
 ana fue, dealers as well as to dealers in stoves.
 l Steam had not been raised in the public schools heating plant this ses- sion and Superintendent J. P. Wom-
 ack dismissed the pupils for the
 morning until the building could be
 properly heated. The same trouble
 was experienced at the State Normal School, where the new central heat ing station was not quite ready for service, and the sessions of both the Normal and practice schools were
 dismissed for the day. It is announc- ed, however, that the buildings will tbe properly heated and ready again at the usual time tomorrow morning. IL is not thought that the freeze will cause any appreciable damage to the cotton crop. County Agent J. w. Earlier said today that whatever damage had been suffered would be offset by the advantage of causing the foliage to drop off the plant, per
 hitting the bolls to mature and open
 more rapidly.
 The cold weather is welcomed by
 local merchants. On account of sum-
 mer lingering so long trade has been very slow in heavy goods and cloth
 ing of all kinds, and these goods are expected with the first touch of win
 ter to begin moving with a rush. The minimum temperature, accord ing to Prof G. H. Burr's government
 thermometer, was 35 above zero to- day. The stiff northern wind kept
 the mercury well down in the forties throughout the day. Frost is predict ed by the weather bureau for tonight,
 with fair and somewhat warmer weather for Tuesday.

English SparroWS
Used to Halt Weevil
Feathered Gan1Ins Are Welcomed In
Alfalfa Fields of Western
States.

MADISON, WIS, Sept 20-The
English sparrow has found a claim to
usefulness. The most despised of
birds promises to be of service in
checking the spread of the alfalfa
weeYil.
The spread of this pest has threat
ened the destruction of the alfalfa
industry in Utah, Wyoming and
Southern Idaho and caused much
alarm among growers Of the plant in
Wisconsin and other Middle Western
States
That the seed introduction theory
OF spread is false has been definitely
proved by T. H Parks and James q,
Sanders, plant experts, respectively, to
the Idaho Agricultural College and the
University of WisConsin's College of
Agriculture. Their investigations
have shown that the weevil feeds
upon leaves and stems Of the plant,
but never upon the seed. on the
other hand, there is every possibility
Of spread in the fact that the beetle
or its eggs may be carried from dis
trict to district in the hay upon which
it feeds.

Daughter of San Francisco Celes-

formidable one, for the title of the

a Chinese girl is not supposed to be.
The popular idea of the Chinese

change, for here in California there
is a young Chinese woman who is
physically perfect, according TO OCci-
dental standards, who is studying law
and who is an ardent upholder of
equal suffrage.
She is Miss Zamlock Lowe, daugh-
ter of a prominent merchant Of San
Francisco, and is the only woman of
her race who is enrolled in the law
course at the University of California.
She is not very tall, just 5sfeet 80
inches, to be exact to a decimal, but,
with lovely symmetry conforming to
her height" the staid statistics of
measurement tell of a figure fem
ininely perfect.
Nature, in her sudden leap from the
confines of aeons' of tradition, was not
unaided by Miss Lowe Not that fig
ural perfection was her object, indeed,
for the healthy body that would best
serve her brain was her desire. and
to this end she has undertaken gym

includes the best and simplest Of Chi
