NOT WITH F|ALA
Ex-President, Safe, to Come
Out of Wilderness in
Few Days.

4tEW YORK, March 24.-All feeling
of anxiety regarding the safety of
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, who Is
in TIE jungle in Brazil, has been re-
moved by additional advices from An
thony Fiala, whose party lost their
equipment in the Rapids of the Devil,
in the Papagalo river.

good health and was not with the
party that met with mishap. With
another part of the expedition MT.
Roosevelt is exploring the Rio Duiva-
ta or River of Doubt, a hitherto I'M
explored stream. Fiala says Colonet
Roosevelt will reach Manaos early IN
April, the point marking the end Of
the expedition From there the former
President will start for Madrid to
attend the wedding of his son Kermit.
Fiaia states that he lost two canoes
loaded with food and equipment, put
that his party of eight men are SAFE.
Fialas dispatch was dated from
Santarem, Brazil, and relieved the
anxiety of the Roosevelt family and
others here, as no definite word had
been received previously regarding
Colonel Roosevelt and the other MEM
bers of the expedition.
"As part of the expedition plan,
said Fiala's message, II left Colonel
: Roosevelt at Utiarity. Matte Crosse,
to, explore the Papagalo river with
Brazilian cavalry officer, Lieutenant
Lauriedo, seven men and three
canoes.
Two of the canoes were sunk with
equipment and food in the Rapids of
the Devil. leaving us short of sup
plies. We continued the descent OF
the Papagalo, Juruena and TapaJos
rivers. running thirty-nine rapids.

has been successful. We shall pro-
coed to Manaos tomorrow"

LFrom a staf Correspondent.I

WASHINGTON, March 24.-Con-
gresham John J. Eagan began NOV
ing into the death Chamber" today.
That is the cheerful name they have
given the new suite of rooms on the
top of the House of Representatives
office building. About forty single
term congressman have been occupy
ing offices in the old Maby building
north of the senate since the present
session of congress. The offices were
inadequate and out of the way and
those who had the misfortune to be
sent there felt more or less like
Pariahs.
They made such an insistent de-
mand for offices in the new office
building that an appropriation was
made to arrange a set of offices on
the top floor of the building.
1t so happens that the architects in

DEATH CHAMBER" IS GRUESOME NAME
GIVEN TO CONGRESSMAN EAGAN'S OFFICE

designing the office building did not
expect that office room would be
called for under the copper roof. That
demand was made year ago and the
offices are now there. But they are
nothing like the large, commodious
rooms ON the lower floors. 1t was
Congressman Hart who when he went
there to select an office declared,
what is this, an office? 1t looks
more like the death chamber in states
prison." That is how the name for
the offices on the fifth floor came to
be known as death chambers.
They are directly under the roof, a
copper roof at that. Those who know
the weather conditions there in sum-
mer say that the tenants will surely
have hot time of it when Old Sol be-
gins to assert himself.
Congressman Eagan is not worry
ing, because he spends most of his
time on the floor of the House and
only goes TO his office in the evening.

Teachers Aid in Formulating
New Course in Chicago Schools

CHICAGO. March PA new course
of study will be put in Chicago's
schools next week. The course which
was adopted yesterday by the Board
of Education, after two months con-
sideration, is a combination of many
prepared by teachers, principals and
district superintendent at the sug-
gestion of Mrs ella Flagg Young,
superintendent of schools. 1t is said
to be the first course in which the
teaching force has had a part in the
making.
The course gives increased freedom
to teachers, permitting the teacher a
selection in all grades above the first
two. Another innovation Is leaving a
study out one semester and teaching
il double time the next semester. Sew
eral school trustees contend that
arithmetic should be taught in every
semester.

EARTHQUAKES FOLLOW
IN WAKE OF RECENT
DISASTER IN JAPAN

Acting Consul-general Hachiro Ari-
ia on Wednesday received from
Toxic a cablegram containing the
fourth official report on the recent dis
aster in Japan, due to the eruption of
the volcano intake. The report says
that short earthquakes are frequent on
the island Of Sakura lima, but that lit
tie damage has been done by them.
The report is. in full, as follows:
The small earthquakes which ac-
companied the recent eruption of the
volcano intake are continuing, but
little damage is reported as having
been done by them. 1t is believed that
the crisis has passed In the city
Of Kagoshima, where the majority of
the damage was done by the eruption,
it is reported that the loss of life and
property was far smaller than at first
reported. The inhabitants are return
ing to their homes. Nearly twO-thirds
of the island was laid waste by the
falling lava and ashes, and it is esti-
mated that more than $4,000 persons
will be forced to settle elsewhere"

RADICAL Change
IN ROAD POLICY
IS AGREED Upon

will be paved, and that Kalakaua
avenue will be paved, and that the
only work done on the belt road, for
the remaining time in the six months
period. will be patching and such 9TH
er remain work aSjs eminently neceS-
sary.
Caucus Plan to Go Before Board.
This change in policy. as agreed up
on at the caucus, will be formally laid
before the board of supervisors at the
next meeting, February 3. At that
time it IS probable that q resolution
will be introduced by Supervisor Pc
tie. chairman of the roads committee,
setting aside money for the Kalakaua
job, at the same time asking that the
Wilson contract be allowed to go by
the boards. The latter's bid for the
$4,000 piece of work was accepted,
but the mayor has not yet entered in
70 a contract with the contractor, and
therefore, it is held, has the right to in
struct the chief executive not to enter
into the agreement.
1t is not the intention of the board
CT supervisors to tear up kalakaua
avenue until after the Carnival In
order to make the road more passable,
however, it was decided yesterday to
scarify it and roll it-that is, cut down
the ridges. smooth and pack the road
with a roller And in this connection
a. correction may be made Of an ar,
ticle appearing in the morning press
in which it was stated that an appro-
priation of $500 had been made to
pave Kalakaua avenue. In addition to
the fact that such a sum would be
inadequate to pave a block even of
the thoroughfare, there is the further
inaccuracy that such a resolution was
not introduced.
Supervisor Petrie plans to set aside
SIS, 200 at a later date for this work.
Will. Miles, secretary of the mayor,
strongly supported the position the
city fathers have taken towards i'm
proving Kalakaua avenue, and resent
ed the attempt made to put the sup
ervisors in a bad light regarding it.
In making up the budget for the
present six monthe period, the board
kept down the appropriations for per
manent improvements to the miui-
mum amounts. Shortage in funds,
which is pressing the supervisors, &C
counts for this actions Five thou.
sand dollars was appropriated for per
manent street survey and $4,000 was
unprorated, and $4,000 was set aside
for alarm boxes. There is a fair-sized
sum in the fund for maintenance Of
roads, and the general fund is not e.
hausted. Money from the latter fund
can be borrowed, and this is what the
supervisors plan to do.
Already $4,000 has been set aside for
the improvement of the Pail road. 1t
will require more than this amount
before the work is completed. Lava
blocks, three by three and one-half
inches, are being used on the road
at the curves on both sides. 1t is
being laid on concentric scheme, set
by hand in a sand and concrete
cushion.
! More money will be required to put
the road in good condition. After the
curves are finished there still remains
the road between them. What type
of pavement to use at such places has
not been thrashed out. 1t will come
up soon probably, now that the new
policy has been agreed upon.
