In Favorite Cafe He Drinks to
the New President.

Mcyico City, July 10. Before his de-
parture tonight, General Huerta, ac-
companled by "A few friends, entered
the French cafe which he has been in
the habit Of visiting several times
daily for the last year or so, and took
his usual place near the entrance.
An immense crowd followed, shout
ing "Viya." Many shook Huerta by
the hand, while others embraced HIM
and several kissed him on the cheek.
Tears filled Hucrta's eyes. He raised
his glass and said:
This will be my last toast in my
favorite resort, and | drink to the new

months Of legal battle, Harry X. Thaw,

MRS. CARMAN WILL
HEAR FATE TO-DAY
Prosecutor Expects Indict-
ment for Murder in
Lesser Degree.
HER FINAL PLEA
MAY WIN FREEDOM
Possibility She Will Tell Story
to the Grand Jury-Tramp
Witness Aids State.

tFrom a stan Correspondent ~ IN. Tribune J
Freeport, n. Y, July 10. Mrs. Flor
ence Carman in all probability will
know by noon tomorrow whether she
must stand trial on the charge OF hav-
ing shot Mrs. Louise Bailey or whether
she is to leave Mineola jail a free
woman.
Tonight District Attorney Smith
said he expected the grand jury to be
ready to report its finding before that
hour. and he is confident an indictment
will be returned. He has. said as much
to his associates and intimate friends.
In Freeport and Mineola the belief
is general that Mrs. Carman will be
indicted. Her indictment was practi-
cally admitted by DR.. Carman, quail
fed, however, by the proviso that it
would result if she is not allowed to
testify before the grand jury.
But it is not considered possible
that Mrs Carman will be indicted for
murder in the first degree, The general
opinion is that the indictment will
charge her either with murder in the
second degree or first degree man
slaughter
From those who should know comes
the statement that the jurors are di-
vided in their own minds as to how
serious charge should be made
against her. and there is good reason
to believe that an indictment, if re-
turned, will be in the nature of a com
promise.
The Tribune's correspondent can say
that the District Attorney, while con-
vinced that Mrs. Carman fired the fatal
bullet, does not believe there was any
premeditation about the act. Mr.
Smith has a great deal of sympathy for
her, and would be well satisfied with an
indictment charging murder in lesser
degree.

COUNTRY CHILDREN REPORTED
NOT so HEALTHY AS CITY
CHILDREN.

Most people have taken it for grant
ed that children in the country are far
more healthy than those in the city. 1t
Is therefore cause of considerable sur
prise to learn, as n result of the recent
investigation of the health of school
children conducted by the joint com
mittee of the National Council of Educa-
ton and the American Medical Associa-
ton, that among children in the rural
public schools there is far more physi-
cal effectiveness than among those in
the city schools. 1t therefore behooyes
those having to do with rural schools
to see to it that the hygenic conditions
of these school are improved and that
the instruction in physiology and hy-
giene be especially directed towards
improving health conditions in general
in rural communities.
Why is it that county children are
not as healthy rs city children? Now,
this does not mean that there are more
sick children in the country than in the
city, but in proportion to the popula-
ton there are more. Why is there
more tuberculosis in the country than
in the city? Why are so many country
children and people wearing eye-glass-
es? Why have so many country child
rem adenoids which later cause catarrh
and affect the child's learning? Why
are so many children stoop- -shouldered?
Is the school at fault or can the school
do something (if the parents co-operate)
to remedy above conditions?

1t may be that some of those who
are working out different sorts Of
school standards for measuring school
efficiency will finally hit upon some
method of measuring the serious con-
sequences OF having a poor, failing
teacher for whole year in one dis
trict. Recently we have had confer
ences with people in the rura, school
where a good teacher had been teach
ing for many years. Finally there was
a demand for reduction In the salary
of the teacher which resulted in the
going out of the teacher who had been
SO successful and in the coming in of IA
teacher not so well prepared and with
not such a good record of successful ex-
perience. In short time it was APP
parent to every one who had children
in school that the teacher had not only
lost control of the children but had also
lost their confidence and respect. 1t
was an easy matter for them to make
the mistake but it was not SO easy TO
correct the mistake. According to
those who are competent to know, the
i'll results of that poor years teaching
can hardly be overcome. 1t may new
er be possible to secure a system that
will insure successful teacher in
every school room, but we should not
be satisfied until we have approxima-
ted that end. Educational Press Bul-
