 Were it not for the fact that cer- tain features of a somewhat extra ordinary nature have been arranged We would have extended an invitation to the ladies also-but not this time"
 The hour fixed for the beginning of the frivolities is S:3O D. m. There are reports that at that time a cordon of soldiers from Naco, loaned by the gov ernment. will be thrown around the club house and a dead line" estab hshed across which no one will be permitted to pass. The only definite announcement made by the committee | is as follows:
 During the evening there will an Iaunction sale of anything lying around that. owing to recent legislation, will not be essential to the clubs welfare after January l."
 The only certain things about the entertainment are that it will be 3
 complete surprise to club member. and they will surely be entertained.

 The Tempe structure. completed by Engineer Ryan some months ago. withstood the waters in excellent shape This bridge Is erected on bed rock and is expected to stand the heaviest waters ever recorded in the Salt River. The bridge is built clear Co the high embankment on the west side and has but a short approach on the east side It is not thought that this bridge suffered any damage whatever

Senator Hollis of N. II. Declares
For a Simple College Life

College in the Senate of the United
States and I am quite sure that Har-
ward is not representative of the Unit
ed States or Of New England. She is
too conservative, too hidebound. She
Lays behind the times. She does not
lead; she follows.
I'm the west there is greater co-opera-
ton between the colleges and the legis,a-
lures, but not in the East because in the
East they regard college professors as
a joke. They believe that all college
views are tainted by great sums of mon
ey bestowed on colleges by men of great
wealth.
"a college should decline gifts from
men of great wealth. If new buildings
are needed would call upon the alumni
for contributions, limiting the amount to
be subscribed by a single donor. would
increase the income by increasing tut
ton fees. Education achieved through
some sacrifice is more vauable than that
acquired through charity. Only men of
high scholarship should be eligible for
classes offices. If this does not suit the
very rich men they can very easily find
a college where they would be welcome

Cambridge, Mass, March 2S.-Unit-
ed States Senator Henry F. Hollis of
New Hampshire, a graduate of Har-
ward, criticized his Alma Mater as be-
ing too conservative and hidebound'
and advocated more :, democracy in
college life in an address to under
graduates at the Union tonight.
There is a firm belief among col
Iege men," he said, that the Presi-
dent of the United States was forced
from the presidency of leading
Eastern college because he tried to
stem the tide of snob and make that
college democratic in social and not
in political sense"
No man in college, he believed,
should be allowed to have an automo-
bile. College life should be made more
simpe and for the encouragement of
democracy he favored the plan which

Alaskan Railroad or any other public
work authorized by Congress, was
proposed in a bill introduced today by
Representative Bailey, Dem,) of
Pennsylvania The bill further stip-
ulates that civilians shall not be en-

known today. Arrangements for the

expected that the secretary will be

tary Lane will decide upon the route
of the line while in Alaska. 1t is also
expected that most of his time while
there will be taken up with organiza-
ton work, negotiations with existing
railroads and the study of problems
relating to the development of Alas

PORTLAND PEOPLE
HELD FOR AIDING
ESCAPE OF BOY

Portland, Nee, March 23.-Thomas j.
raigned in the municipal court this morn
ing on the charge of concealing a boy
escaped from the State School for Boys
in South Portland. They pleaded guilty
and sentence will be passed next Mon
day There is a special statute govern
ing such cases and is explicit in direct
ing that fine of not less than $50 or
Jail sentence of not more than so days be
imposed.
John Milton escaped from the school
two weeks ago and was traced to Hen
ry street. Search of the premises failed
to disclose his hiding place. Milton got
away and was arrested in Montreal. He
was brought back a week ago and was
able to tell how he managed to make
his escape, who furnished the money and
who aided him in his flight.
There will be meeting of the trustees
of the school Friday and the facts will
be taken up FOR consideration. Supt
Dunn has the facts and the names of
persons in Augusta and South Portland
ton Boasts that they would do it again
are reported to have been made in the
hearing of the superintendent and the
police 1t is likely that the trustees will
authorize the arrest of all who We're
concerned in the affair and that all will
be served alike in court.
Under the system which is in operation
in the school now, there are no locks on
the doors. BOYS are put on their honor
not to run away. When an inmate es-
capes it is the theory OF the trustees that
citizens should aid the officers in cap
turing the boy and not help him In
fringe on the rules.

CAUSES DEATH OF
THEATRE MANAGER

New York, March 23.-Thomas J.
Mcguire, veteran theatrical manager,
who lived and talked and sang for 10
years without tongue, died yester-
day of cancer. 1t was his love for
cigars that brought about the loss of
his tongue. He smoked from % to 80
cigars almost every day for more than
20 years. Cancer of the tongue de-
veloped, One operation failed and in
March 1904, Mr.. Mcguire greeted his
friends for what he believed was the

ton, in which practically the whole
tongue was removed.
To the surprise of the surgeons, the
patient almost Immediately after the
operation showed signs of recovery.
Several months later Mr.. Mcguire
discovered that his power of speech
had not been destroyed. He often said
that he found singing easier than talk
ing. He was born in San Francisco

WILL PROBE IOWA
DEERING RIFLE SHOOT

Portland, Me-, March PA telegram
from Washington received late Satur-
day night by Edwin Simmons, N. r.
A, judge for behring's rifle team, stat
ed that board of inquiry, composed
of three prominent men of Washing
ton connected with the government,
had been appointed for the investiga-
ton of the Deering- Iowa match tar
gets, and conditions under which they
were shot. Also the message stated
that the targets of the Portland-Iowa
match would be also investigated,
match when Portland was given the
decision, but when at the last moment
victory was snatched away and given
to Iowa.
The fact that both these matches
are going to be investigated, gives
Deering hope, as there may be a pos
sibility of some mistake in both
matches. Should the decision of the
P. II. ST.. II. S. match be reversed
by the action of the inquiry board and
the decision of the Deering- Iowa match
remaining unchanged, then Deering
and Iowa would be tied for the cham
pionship with shoot off necessary to
decide the winner. However, if both
matches remain the same as before
stated, then Iowa wins the champion
ship. The decision made by the board
in Washington will be awaited With
great interest here, as two local teams
are represented in this rifle mix-up."
The Deering boys are hoping that they
may be able to shoot Iowa again, and
they feel confident that they could trim
the Western lads in another shoot.
The board of investigation will be
composed of Gen. Charles d. Gather,
president of the National Rifle Asso-
citation; Capt. Fay of the marine
corps and Lieut.. Townsend, who is au-
| thority On shooting and has written
several books on the subject.
1t will be remembered that when
| the scores were first announced, Iowa
City had 9S2, while the Deering High
school boys had 978. When the scores
were received rom Washington, how
ever, the Iowa team had $40, while
the Deering team had 978.
A duplicate of the message sent to
Mr. Simmons yesterday was also wired
| to Captain Vernon w. Hall, who was
on the local committee to request an
| investigation.

Resume of Law

Boston, March 23.-The 1o-hour law
for women and minors, the constitu-
tionality of which was established to-
day by the United States supreme
court became operative in 1910 and a
number of violations were soon
brought to the attention of the author

curing a woman to work more than
10 hours The overtime work which
resulted in Riley's conviction amount
ed to five minutes. Riley's appeal was
made on the ground that the act was
unreasonable and arbitrary.
The contention of the state was ar
gued before the court. by James M.
Swift of Fall River, within week af
ter he had relinquished the office of
attorney general.

OF Nine. Caillaux That Editor
Calmette Had Other Letters

Paris, March 22.--Important testi-
snony, tending TO confirm Nine Call
laux's assertion that she had reason
10 believe that M. Calmette, the late

session other personal letters, of an
even more intimate nature than the

dinued, knew of the existance of the
photographs and offered $4,000 to a
person whose name was not mentioned

er of the photographs. This offer was
refused.
NJ. Calmette made similar offer to
Princess De Mesagne-Tstraders, who
also declined il.
When the Thy joe letter appeared
in the Figaro. the witness continued,
Nine. Calliaux had reasonable grounds
for supposing NJ. Calmette had the
other two.

noted artist, testified she had hearc
discussions in newspapers on these
settlers and that she herself had beer
told by an editor OF an evening paper
