Utilizing the Waste.

In the city of Brussels, the school
children were asked by their teachers
to gather up as they came and went
from school such apparently valueless
objects as old metallic bottles, cap
sules, tin cans, tinfoil, paint tubes. re-
fuse metal and deliver the same into
the keeping of their teachers. Within
eight months they collected: 1926
pounds of tinfoil, bottle capsules, 4.415
pounds, 220 pounds of old paint tubes,
1921 pounds scraps of metal, total T.
7S1 pounds. This heap of rubbish was
sold and it's proceeds applied SO as to
completely clothe 500 poor children
and send SO to recuperative colonies
and there still remained quite bal
ance.
Stop letting things go to waste and
thus administer to your independence
in later years.

Where the Best Man Fails.

Evidently a school of training is
needed for groomsmen. A parish
clerk, who has been cfficiating for
thirty-seven years at London West
End church, famous the world over
for its numerous society weddings. de-
clares that groomsmen are rather
noted for observation-disclosures. In par
ticular, the man in that position. fails
to look after the bridegroom hat,
and left to himself, nearly always lets
the bridegroom go away hatless.
Why" continued the old clerk,
when Mr.. Asquith was married-four
prime ministers signed the register;
Mr.. Gladstone, Mr.. Balfour, Lord Rose
berry, and the bridegroom himself
his hat was left behind in the YES
try, and his best man was no less
important a person than Lord Hal
dane, the present lord chancellor,
whom you would have thought was to
be relied on, and the worst of it was
Mr.. Asquith wears very large-sized
hat, very difficult to replace. Lord
Kitchener l have seen as best man
once But If l had not kept vigilant
watch, the bridegroom would have
gone away bareheaded."

Miracle of Memory.

A petal fell from a rose in a bou-
ouet which a delicate girl was carry
ing through the street and fluttered
towards the ground, and just then
the muddy boot of an old cleaner of
the streets got in its way, and with
the dew of it's own life it attached it.
self to the humble covering of humble
feet, and later when the man glanced
down and saw Il, he smiled at the in
congruousness. And as he smiled,
this crude and homely mind settled
itself upon the dainty petal. and with
a passing breeze of fancy was borne
away from the artificial grandeur of
the city across the fields and rivers
and mountains, and while his feet
still trod the stony street, his soul
was in the little old-home cottage
where his boyhood was spent, and he
stood under the old rose bush which
hung over the door, and he lifted up
his arms and took great masses of
bloom into their embrace, and buried
his face in their glory, and the tired
old man was boy again. And yet
they say there are no miracles today!

Washington.-Pres Wilson and
Secretary Bryan, following the prece-
dent of previous administrations, have
made known their views on the inter-
national character of the legislation
now pending in California by which
Jauanese would be prevented from

gram to Governor Hiram w. johnson
of California, made public both at Sac

Bryan expressed the view of Presi-

Japan, while the Senate's measure as
drawn would not be Objectionable if
alien land legislation is to be enacted

INJECT RELIGION IN
 G0VERNORSHIP FIGHT
GLYNN SUPPORTERS IN NEW YORK CONTEST DENOUNCE SUL-
 ZERITES FOR LlTTE ACT.
Pamphlets are Circulated Through Issue Raised by Rev. Q. K.
 Miller

Albany, N. Y., Aug. 23.-The issue of religion was brought into the Sulzer-Glynn conflict over the gov arnorship today. causing one of the greatest sensations that has develop ed since Sulzer was impeached and Martin H. Glyan claimed the title of acting governor.
 < There is wrath ia the Glynn camp as a result. The issue was raised by Rev. O., R. Miller, president of the State Civic League, who is support ing Sulzer, and charging all sorts of crime against Charles F. Murphy ano the Tammany legislators.
 Injection of religion into the battle was denounced tonight by the fol- lowers of MT. Glynn as the most dastardly outrage that the supporters of Sulzer had yet perpetrated.
 The issue was raised through the medium of a pamphlet, bundles of which were laid upon the press tables at the executive chamber to- day.

President vii certainly be a candidate for reelection. He has not intention of withdrawing from the race
 The announcement that Huerta has decided to stand for reelection came in the, same manner as did the dec laration that Huerta had served an ultimatum on the United States de manding that his administration be recognized withing twelve hours. Like that announcement this is sub ject, to change.
 Outside of these attempts to stir up President Wilson, Huerta is mark ing time" There is no doubt that the administration is in bad posi- tion financially and that this fact alone is expected to bring about a solution of the problem.
 The negotiations between Lind and the administration are at standstlll. pending the reply of the United States to Huerta's note, rejecting President Wilson's proposals.
 Important development in the MeXi- can-American situation are looked for within forty-eight hours. The per manent committee of Congress is holding secret session tonight. It is rumored it's members will attempt to induce Huerta to comply with Washington's request that he resign.

wanted to go to church, but the au- thorlties feared that an attempt might be made to kidaap him if he left the Jall. They are taking no chances.
 It is believe> that Thaw will accept the proposal that he be deported to Vermont and there left to fight with the officials of the state and of New York for his liberty. He has intimat- ed to a friend of the Thaw family, now in Sherbrooks, that he favors that proposal more than the other, but he wants to be sure of his ground before he actually accepts either.
 If he decides to go to Vermont the action taken by the Canadian au- thorities will amount to his election from the Dominion The habeas cor pus proceedings before Justice Glob- ensky. will be dropped and the de- partment will immediately order his deportation to Newport. Vermont.
 There is no doubt that Canada would like to get rid of the prisoner According to the very highest legal authorities Thaw might wage his fight in the Dominion for several years before his last resource was eX- hausted and the Canadian officials want to prevent this, if possible.
 One element of danger to Thaw was removed today when Roger Thompson, who aided in his escape and is now a prisoner in the same jail, withdrew his previous threat and said he would not reveal anything of the plans leading up to the escape from Matteawan. If all the details of the flight are made known it might complicate matters for Thaw ana give the New York authorities basis for demanding his extradition on the charge of bribery.
 Thompson said that everything had "been fixed up" This indicated tha, he had been seen by representative of the Thaw family and promised help in escaping from his predica- ment.

Traffic Squad Headed By w. D. Hearn Will Aid in

COOPERATION URGED
Will Educate Drivers and Make Ar- rests, If They Deem Such
 Action Necessary.
Keep to the right"

If dignified gentleman in a Palm Beach suit and Panama hat, wearing a stone in his shirt front as large as an English walnut addresses the above remark to you. don't think that he is trying to "get gay" and dictate your movements.
 If, at the next corner, you are hail. ed by q party dressed in clerical garb, with mutton chop whiskers and silk hat who has the bearing of mem- Der of the House of Lords, and asks you to cross to the far side of the street before making your turn East on Second avenue. don't expect a gen. tleman in uniform with the word keeper" on his cap, to rush up and announce to Julius Caesar" that supper is ready"
 These gentlemen will he our new traffic squad" who are only trying to set you right in observing the new regulations to be observed under the traffic ordinance, passed at the last meeting of the city council. They are prominent citizens, most of whom own automobiles and who are anxious that the safety of the pedestrian be guard ed, and who are desirous that all drivers of cars or other vehicles learn to keep to the right. to pass to the far side of the street, to make their turns, to either come back to the point of their destination or go eith- CT to east or west, north or south.
 Desiring that the driving public be educated to the requirements of the traffic ordinance as speedily as pos- sible, and to the end that as few ar- rests as possible might be recorded, w. D. Hearn, of the Bank of Pine Bluff, suggested to Mayor Bloom that a number of prominent citizens be appointed to serve as special "traf- fife squad" to assist the city in educat- ing" the public up to the observance of the ordinance, however, without any authority to carry club or wear a star or helmet. Mayor Bloom thought so well of the sugges- tion that he immediately appointed Mir. Hearn as the first member, and requested him to select from the busi- ness men the members of the special squad. MT. Hearn has asked the mayor to issue commissions to the following named gentlemen: F. c. Smart. J. B. Speers, w. H. Simposn, w. s. Harris D. A. Franklin, Dr. B. D. Luck, Hunter H. Knox, E. A. Howell. F. P. Hearn, Henry Haizlip and Dr. c. U. Mayfield.
 These gentlemen do not propose to arrest any man who drives on the wrong side of the street, who cuts the corners, or who violates any sec- tion of the traffic ordinance, but they will have full authority to do so if they deem it necessary. They do pro- pose however, to keep sharp look out and to educate the driving public up to a strict observance by example and suggestions.
 When hailed by one of the gentle men, give heed to his advice. for he is only trying to assist in handling the situation as it should be handled in a city whose traffic has grown so heavy as to make strict traffic law neces- sary. E

PRIZE FIGHTER
 DIES AFTER FIGHT Jesse Willard Must Face Murder Charge, Following
 Death of Young. OTHERS ARRESTED
OTHERS ARl
District Attorney Fredericks, of Los Angeles, Says He VIII Prosecute
 All Who Participated.

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 23.--District Attorney Fredericks will prosecute Jesse Willard. Promoters McCarey and Greenwald, of the Pacific Ath- letic Club, Manager Tom Jones and Harry Gilmore and all other officials and handlers who had any connection with last nights boxing contest be- tween Jesse Willard and John Bull'' Young and which resulted in Young's death today.
 Shortly after Young's death at 9:3O this morning all of the principals were surrendered to the county sheriff by counsel for the Pacific Athletic Club. They were taken before justice of the peace and charged with man. slaughter. Willard was placed under 5000 bond and each of the others gave $1,5O0 surety.
 An autopsy performed this after noon by the county physician deter mined that Young died from cere- bral hemorrhage, probably caused by blow. It further established the fact that Young was not in normal condition when he faced Willard last night, his heart showing various weaknesses.
 While the District Attorney will ad- here strictly to the California statute in prosecuting the men the opinion expressed on all sides today is that no law has been violated. The death of Young is generally looked upon as an unavoidable accident, just as man participating in any other sport might receive injury that would re suit in death.
