 and he informed him that when the
 mine was worked properly it would 1 yield $550 a dey, $156,000 a month or $1,9S0,000 a year.
 The complaint alleges that Grimslev told Berkey that 100000 shares Of stock of the capitalized stock of $1,- 100000 had been sold at 50 cents a
 share. He is alleged to have promis-
 ed Berkey 200 per cent profit annually
 on the par value of stock and 400
 per cent profit on money invested.
 One of the company's alleged pros
 pectuses stated that there was enough
 gold in sight to keep a big force of
 men working day and night for ten
 years. Also that $8.OO0.OOO in gold

 there was $28.OOO.00O in gold in the
 property left to be mined.
 BerIey alleges he was deceived and
 defrauded out Of his 5000 by the de- fendants and further alleges that the New La Paz Gold Mining Company is worthless. He denies the existence of any mine in the region named by the alleged owners.

Mayor Haussling was asked this
afternoon to appoint a woman to fill

A delegation of women representing

They argued that it would be only
right that women who have charge of

be given some power in regard to
the management of the public
schools.

the mayor will require a man con-
versant with the erection and main

slider that a woman would be
equipped TO give competent service

At that moment the principal
stepped into the hallway and it was
necessary for the boy to go ON UP the

children. Then, instead of returning
to his classroom. he coolly clamoerea
