ideales de La "Casa de Espana', esta
puede y debe estimular quienes por
ese proceso leg1timo, traten de salvar
en- Puerto Rico, 10 que pueda quedar a
fote del naufragio del 98
Cuando la "Casa de Espafla" aplau-
| dio a los defensores del proyecto de ley

lestaba 8 no los republicanos que 10

En- la Camara de Delegado hab1a 81
do presentado un bill y ese bill segu1a
ell proceso evolutivo que todo bill ne
cesita para llegar a ser ley. Durante
ese lapse de tempo son6 ell APPLAUSE de
la ''Casa de Espafla'' en- estfmulo de los
Legislatures que tai reforma acomet1an.
Pero ell Proyecto de ley del seiior de
Diego lego al Executive y fracas6 en-
ell Executive, y contra la falta de con-
currencia del Consejo Executive NADIA
ten1a que decir y NADIA dijo la "Casa
de Espana''
Ell Consejo, Executive, para una insti-
tuci6n extranjera, como 10 es la "Casa
de Espafla'', debe MERCER id6nticos res
petos que la Camara de Delegados
Ambos organismos son los cuerpos
colegisladores del pals. Si la Camara
representa- la mermada soberan1a de
Puerto Rico, ell Consejo representa- la
pujante soberan1a de los Estados Uni
dos.
Entire ambas soberan1as la "Casa de
Espana tiene que permanecer necesa-
riamente neutral.
Fracas6 en- ell Consejo Executive el bill
del senor de Diego, y la irremediaible
neutralidad de la "Casa de Espana' lie
obligaba a guardian respetuoso silencio,
hasta que otra vez Sc presente en- la
Camara de Delegates otro proyecto de
tendencia igual al que merecio sus
aplausos, y otra vez 10 aplaudir1a por-
que en- tanto que no Sc Olga que la fun
ci6n legislative en- ell pals es un acto sub
vcrsivo, contra la soberan1a americana
en- Puerto Rico, nadie delinque, porque
aplauda a los Legislatures que estan lie
nando una function organica desde
luego leg1tima.
iPuede decirse 10 mismo del proceso
que ha precedido al nacimiento de la
Alta Escuela, Jose>de Diego?
No. Demasiado 10 saben los hombres
inteligtntes que han dirigido y dirigen
ese movimiento
La Escuela ha surgido de una huel-
ga, y no es Ell procedimiento de la huel-
ga el mas indicado para lograr un per-
feccionamiento evolutivo.
Nosotros no quereinos entrar en- ell
analisis de ciertos pormenores, pero
ino representa- esa escuela, asi a simple
vista, el campo atrincherado de la huel-
ga eScolar?
Pues estas son las actitudes que no
pueden adoptars los extranjeros Para
no caer en- elias hay que trazar un ca
mino recto, y la "Casa de Espana'' a
nuestro juicio, ha sabido encontrarlo
Una vez parece que va a chocar contra
los unos contra los otros, otra vez. :.
ESQ no importa. En- todo case, ese Sc
ria ell mejor indicio de imparcialidad,
| jy que hace falta para ser neutrales 81
no tener un amplio espfritu de impair
cialidad y una ecuanime entereza para
no caer en- bander1as?

senting rs per cent Of the rye bread
bakers OF the East Side, declared that
any Of the small bakers who tried to
keep to the old price would have to go
out OF business. It was pointed out
that rye -four had risen from SO q bar
rel to 81 so during the last few months.
The price of the seven-cent rye loaf,
the standard Of the East Side, was
raised generally to eight cents yester-
day, he said.
Representatives OF James Butler, who
has a string Of $50 grocery stores and
bakeshops throughout the city; Of the
Greenhut Company and Boomingdale
Brothers announced that they would
continue TO sell bread at FIVE cents a
loaf.
George w. Perkins, of the Mayors
Committee on Food Supply, declared
that the public should not be deceived
in these announcements. He said they
should not be given 10 the public as il
these firms would sell bread at the old
price and not make a profit on some
other commodity they sold.
ut is all very we'll for some Of these
bakers to say they will sell bread at 5
cents" said Mr.. Perkins, but we should
not misrepresent the real situation.
Either a real situation exists or some
of these men are planning 70 make
fortunes al the expense Of the public.
| believe the bakers who say it can't
be done should have their day in court,
and then it will be shown that scent
bread is an impossibility under the
circumstances. The war and the un-
precedented demand for wheat abroad
are the causes Of raising the price Of

WHITE NAN HANGED
BY KENTUCKY MOB
Jailer at Mayfield Gives Up
Without a Fight Prisoner
Accused of Murder.
by Telegraph 20 The T-bun. ]

Lexington, Ky, Feb. 10.-A mob of
fifty men walked quietly to the county
Jail in Mayfield, a town of 10000 in
habitants, early to-day, called tho jail
er to the door, and demanded that
Thomas Tinker, accused of numbering
Deputy Sheriff Richard Tart. be turned
over TO them. The jailer said he recog-
niEed the futility of opposing so many
men, and so he made no trouble while
Tinker was taken out.
The mob dragged Tinker to Z tree in
the courthouse yard, in the centre of
the town, strung him TO a limb, and
fred volley after volley of pistol bull
lets into his body.
No move has been made 70 arrest any
of the lynchers, and Governor Nc
Creary has not been asked to offer q
reward. Tinker is the first white man
to be lynched in Kentucky in years,
and one of the very few ever punished
by a mob in this state for murder.
When he was taken from his cell, and
again under the tree, he was given a
chance TO talk, but did not plead for
his life. Many persons were in the
streets, but no attempt was made 10 in
terfere with the mob.
Tinker, who had been in the peni-
Tertiary several times, was charged
with robbing a store in Msyfeld. Depu-
ties Tart and Stages were sent after
him and found him At work in a corn
field. Tinker shot Tart, and exchanged
shots with Stages, to whom he sur
rendered

Less than per cent OF the high
school girls graduating in New York
City this month care to become nurses,
according 10 a statement made last
night by Miss Aida +. Soderstrom be-
fore the New York City League for
Nursing Education.
Miss Soderstrom is just completing
preliminary study of sixteen high
schools OF the city, carried on under
the direction Of the New York City
League for Nursing Education. with a
view 10 giving the girl graduates Of
these institutions a fair understanding
OF the opportunities and advantages Of
the nursing profession.
Out Of the l,235 Questionsires dis.
tributed Mss Soderstrom has received
sos replies, of which twenty-six an
swered Eyes" and 539 answered "No."
That nationality was not consldera-
ton in the negative answers was cri-
denced by the fact that 604 OF the
girls were born in this country and
only thirty-fve were foreign born.
1T would seem from these answers"
SAYS Miss Soderstrom. that the aver
age high school girl has a very dis

are inclined TO eXaggerate either the
romantic, popular, short story features
on the one hand, or the horrors Of
hard work, bloody operations and
drudgery on the other. Neither Of
these views is a true one. We are
planning TO urge upon the vocational
leaders in our high schools the desira-
bility OF urging young women to be-
come nurses
The Board Of Education Endorsed
yesterday the amendment TO the cleo
ton law which is now before the State
Legislature at Albany providing for
the designation Of school houses as
registration and polling places.
By using the public schools for vot-
ing purposes, the Peoples Institute
estimates that $4,000 would be saved
TO the city at each election.
The City Of Chicago used seventy OF
its school houses for voting last spring,

Richard J. Hartman, former presi-
dent Of Tyson & Co., was convicted OF
grand larceny In the Criminal Branch
of the Supreme Court yesterday JUS
tee Weeks finished his charge to the
Jury at $3.50. and il took Just eight
minutes for the jurors to decide that
Hartman was guilty.
Hartman did not finch when he
heard the verdict. His son and daugh-
ter were in the courtroom when the
Jury returned, but Mrs. Hartman, who
had been an attentive spectator all
day. was not present. Mrs. Charlotte
l.. Mackenzie, whose fortune Hartman
dissipated, was also absent. Hartman
was remanded to the Tombs Tor a
week before sentence will be imposed.
After Hartman had finished his tes-
timony on Tuesday. Hartford Marshall,
his attorney. urged him TO change his
plea TO guilty, but Hartman insisted
on fighting the case TO q finish, and lost
his chance to receive a lighter sentence
than will row be given him. When the
trial was resumed yesterday morning,
in spite of Marshall's pleas with his
client, Hartman again took the stand
in his own defence.
Assistant District Attorney Weller
continued TO read into the evidence
samples Of the hundreds of letters
which Hartman had written to Mrs.
Mackenzie. The letters were a strange
mixture Of lavish endearments and
financial discussions. and contained
either requests for more Of Mrs. Mac
kenzie's stock, or assurances that the
shares which had already disappeared
were still safe.
More Letters Received.
Letters from Mrs. Mackenzie were
also introduced. They showed the
great strain to which her financial
