CITY COUNCIL SCHOOLS COMMITTEE SCORES
OVER THE JAKE LOEB MAJORITY

wv En- ne JAIL
Victory for the city council schools
committee and defeat for the Jake
Loeb majority of the school board is
contained in a decision handed down
by the Illinois supreme court yester-
day.
The decision answers the ques-
ton: "ShaH city aldermen have the
right to compel the school board to
show it's records, financial accounts
and any documents asked for by al
dermen?"
To this question the Illinois SUI
preme court answers yes" The
appellate court already has said
Eyes" Judge Walker in circuit
court is the only tribunal where the
aldermen were denied their claims.
Chairman Lynch of the council
schools committee said today a spe-
cial meeting may be called this week
to take advantage of the courts deci-
sion.
THAT the records of ChicagO's
public school system should be kept
secret and that school board mem
bers whose appointments are Sub
ject to confirmation by aldermen
should have the power to deny alder
men access to information requested
is one of the most Illogical and alb
surd features of government in Chi
cago today" said Aid. John G. Ken

tain money of the city was spent.
We couldn't get the information. The
door was shut in our faces. We'asked
to look at certain real estate and in
surance records. Again the door was
shut in our faces. A year has passed
in which the information we asked
for has been kept secret"
Matters of information that
should be public knowledge have
been a matter of private property,
privately guarded for the private use

 For answer Kynaston motioned to {. little group of prisoners, who were ! tently watching the cooks, eager for { 6 first really square meal in days. " "Oh!"

 Instantly the man sprang to his feet and swept of his so.nbrero in an ex- aggerated bow.
 ''Muchas gracias, senora! It is not often that itSis given to prisoners to have beautiful woman express sym pathy for them.

 He told how the little group of fed. erals had surrendered to him, and ac- Quainted her with their complaint of persecution.

Discharged Hand
KnifeS Foreman

In a quarrel between Peter krunl-
mes, foreman of one of the Dang
berg ranches in Douglas county, and
a discharged employee by the name
of Watson, the former was danger
ously wounded by being stabbed in
the abdomen. The trouble, it is said,
started over the way Watson was
carrying out the orders of the fore
man in regard to hauling hay. 1t is
reported that Watson was under the
influence of liquor and that krum-
mes discharged him and handed him
his check, and pushed him out of the
office, when Watson rushed back and
stabbed him. DR.. St. Clair of Reno
was summoned after Krummes had
been removed to the hospital and an
operation was performed.
Krummes' condition is reported as
dangerous. But little is known Of
Watson, as he had but recently come
from Kansas and started to work last
Monday. He was arrested and plac
ed in the county Jail at Minden.

Children Show
Generous Spirit

A few days ago Miss Alice Bryant
suggested to the children of her pri.
mary class that each one bring some
thing to the school on Wednesday to
help the poor of Carson celebrate
their Thanksgiving. While sugges
tons were in order she figured that
if each member of the class brought
one potato Of good size the aggre-
gate would be ,fifty-four potatoes and
that would help some family. A lit
tie girl thought some other vegetables
might be thrown in and they discuss.
ed the advantages OF turnips, carrots,
cabbages and p%arsnips.
1t was finally decided that each
donor could bring whatever might
be handy and as a result the school
room looked like a vegetable market
on Wednesday morning. Not a single
tot brought the minimum allowance.
They came in with buckets and pals
of stuff from potatoes to dried fruit
and honey and the whole amount
was turned over to Mrs. Fred Cush-
ing, the head of the Kings Daugh-
ters' society of Carson. She had the
disposal of nearly a wagon. load OF
childrens' contributions and they
went to needy families who were
grateful benefciaries of the kids
bounty.

The ArgonantS Here
On Monday Night

A striking illustration Of fact that
fashions in women's dress are a mat
ter Of recurring cycles is offered by
Edward L. Grafton's great ten-reel
historical drama, The Argonauts OF
California;" which will be seen at the
Grand theater, Monday evening, De-
cember 4th.
The action of the play covers the
period of the first gold discovery
in California and the subsequent
events following the rush of FORTY
Miners to the "diggings' and to San
Francisco. They came from all parts
of the world and many of them were
women, good and bad, old and young.
In the preparation of the play an
exhaustive search of old manuscripts.
fashion-plates, contemporary maya
zines and books was made by ex-
perts in order that the costumes
worn might be exact replicas of those
which were Smart" or otherwise.
IN the ate "tOrtleS' and early hi
ties" of the last century.
As a result of this research the
costumers have wrought a miracle
and if the ladies in the play stepped
out of the screen and were trans
ported back to the stirring days Of
l849 they would be exactly in the
mode. .
But, more surprising they would
also be almost perfectly in the fash
ion Of this year of grace 1916 and
if they were to promenade down
Market street they would fit into the
picture of today as accurately as
though they had just come from a
fashionable modiste's.

SHEEP TO BE SAVED

Heretofore, when sheep have been
snowbound and forced to stay in one

ing qualities, presents a compact feed
with a good deal of nourishment for

Raising Funds for

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. A more
general appreciation of the necessity
