OFFICER WILL LOOK AFTER THE
THE CROWDED CONDITIONS
THERE ON SUNDAYS.

On account Of the crowded and un-
satisfactory conditions that obtair at
the depot on Sundays incident to the
excursions that have been put on
during the sumner for the negroes, a
special officer will be detailed from
the police force for Sunday suryeil.

1t will be the purpose Of the officer
to see that the extraordinary number
of negroes attracted there by these
excursions and other reasons will &C.
cupy only that portion of the depot

means 1t is hoped that much of the
disturbance and conditions that have
prevailed the past few Sundays may
be avoided.

JAPAN SENDING
ANOTHER MOLE
NOT YET SATISFIED AS TO THE
CALIFORNIA ALIEN LAND
LAW.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-The ad-
ministration's hope that the Japanese
controversy was ended was shattered
today with the announcement that an
other note from Japan was on its
way.
As Secretary Bryan will probably
leave WASHINGTON before Saturday, 1t
is not unlikely that the Japanese doc
ument will he received here tomor-
row or next day.
The officials at the department are
in the dark, hut are inclined to ex-
pect that Jaran will call Mr.. Bryan
back to the original proposition of
the Japanes note, namely, that the
United States violated the treaty of
1911 by the act of the State of Cali
fornia. Secretary of State Bryan. it
is understood, played his last card by
offering to take all future cases az
fecting Japanese citizens into the fed
eral court. It is believed that Japan
by her forthcoming reply will put the
treaty question fairly up to the de-
partment for answer with the c;im-
ination of all side issues.

NEGROES CHANCE
FOR OFFICE SLIM
NAME OF PATTERSON FOR REG.
ISTER OF TREASURY MAY
BE WITHDRAWN.

WASHINGTON, July 31.-So much
opposition has. developed in the last
few days to the confirmation Of A.
E. Patterson, the Oklahoma negro. to
be registe ROT the treasury that, in
the opinion of Senator Gore, the
withdrawal of Patterson's name will
probably take palce soon.
Senator Gore and Patterson appear
ed at the White House today, but
neither got to see the President be-
cause of the crowded condition OF
his engagement list. Senator Gore
did, however, talk over the appoint
ment with Secretary Tumulty, but
Patterson had to content himself with
an interview with minor official.

DER CONSIDERATION.
EVERY TEACHER SHOULD Be HERE
The Receipts Of the Contracts, Reg
listers and Report Blanks One Of
the Essentials Of the Opening Of
the Fall School Terms.

There will be meeting of the
teachers Of the county at the court
house in the office of County Superin-
tendent John P. Graham Saturday
morning between 10 and IL o'clock,
and perhaps another in the after
noon.
This meeting is one of the most
important OF the early part of the
year for the teachers, in that it has
to do with the information necessa-
ty to the proper opening of the
schools for the summe rand fall
terms. The contracts will be turn
ed over to the teachers. along with
the registers and report blanks. All
these are important, and then what is
regarded as the most important mat
ter on which there will be needed
some information is the application
Of the compulsory school law.
A comparison of the enrolment
and the new scholastic census will
furnish some basis for an estimate on
the effect, but even with this the re-
suit is entirely problematical.
! There will be general discu ssion
of the law ar this meeting, and Supt
Graham will instruct the teachers in
accordance with the instructions sent
out by the state superintendent.
| 1t is highly important that every
teacher in tae county be present al
this meeting. 1t is more than three
fold in its Importance. The receiv
ling of the contracts is a necessity.
The proper registration of the pu
lpils is requirement, and the report
blanks are also a necessity.

PRODUCE REFUSE
STILL CONSIDERED
MAY BE PLACED IN THE GAR
RAGE CANS FOR THE CITY
GARBAGE WAGONS.

The refuse from the produce
houses is getting to be a most inter-
esting question. The produce people
are not inclined to disobey the orders
of the game warden regarding the
dumping into Duck river, but it is
suggested that this may be set on
the streets in the garbage cans and
turned over TO the garbage wagons.
Should this be done it would place
another phase on the matter.

The books will be open for the col
lection of the city taxes on Friday,
August /, and the penalty will go on
the first of October.
The tax rate for the year is $3.50
on the one hundred dollars worth,
which makes the possible income OF
the city from taxes outside of the
privileges, $o7,917. There are al
ways more or less deductions to make
from these assessments on account
of errors ard insolvencies.
The school allowance in the budg-
ct will be supplemented from the
state and county tax and by the poll
collections, which show 1000 for the
year. The poll rate is 81, which adds
another $1,.01 to the school funfl Of
the city.

and his practice and the butterfly
wife seeks amusement elsewhere.
COllingwood. who Previous to her
marriage had been Il sutton for her
hand, still adOrcS Mrs. Admaston. He
plans that they shall be separated
from party and. be compelled to
spend the night together in Paris
hotel. The scheme works out all
right except for the fact that third
party becomes acquainted with COL
lingwood's intentions and anony-
mously notifies the husband. Late in
the evening Admission calls up his
wife at the Paris hotel and the tele-
phone in her room IS answered by
Collingwood. Next morning Admas-
ton arrives and turns his wife adrift.
Three months later comes the now
famous trial scene which shows an
entire court room in all its complete
ness and perfection as to detail. The
frail little woman is occupying the
witness box. She is subjected to the
most humiliating Examination in
which detectives and the like try to
swear away her character. In vain
she appeals to the court The exam
ination must go on. But "Peggy's"
strength is not equal to the ordeal
and in the end she swoons, her body
falling across the railing of the wit
ness box. The scene is one of vivid
ness and great dramatic strength.
The production is tile same as that
seen ut the Thirty.ninth street thea
