 Mir. Hunt has been under consid- eration as prospective coach at Washington for the past year. He was first suggested by MT. Dobie at the time of his resignation last year. Hunts contract at Carleton prevented his acceptance for last season and the question of coach was temporarily settled by the re- turn of Gilmour Dobie. When the question of a successor to Mir. Do- bic arose this year, Mir. Hunt was the first man to be considered, and steps were immediately taken to pro- cure him for the position. Mana ger Younger brought him out to during the Christmas holidays and filled him full of op portunities that would meet him here. He returned without ac- cepting the tentative offer made him but after a conference with the Car Teton officials decided to accept. His acceptance at Wash ington will not be possible until the board of control has voted to ac- cept him under the terms Of his contract.

"Up to Them" Agaln Says Man.
 arer of Carnentier.o


 Francis Descamps smiled broadly oday when told that there was lothing in the rumor that Jack rurley had been seen in London
 week ago and that he was on his way to Paris to arrange for a box ng bout between Jess Willard and Georges Carpenter, says Paris lispatch of Jan. 9th.
 The manager of Carpentier said:
 Tt struck me as funny that Jack Curley did not know boxing is abso- utely forbidden in France durin@ he war and that in any case bouts Jf 20 rounds are the limit.
 Ut would be foolish to talk bout having the authorities waive he rule. In fact, it would be much aasier to induce the authorities to allow Carpentier to visit America for three, months, and that is not 2asy either"
 Descamps then showed q batch of able messages from Tex Rlckard, sam -McCrackie, Tom O'Rowke and others. asking for the date of sail ng, and remarked:
 Whats the matter with these elbows? I have cabled them that everything is up to them if permis- sion is to be had from the French government for Carpentier to leave. Otherwise, there is nothing doing, as we tried in vain a long time ago to get the necessary furlough. If they can't get the furlough, Car. pentier must continue flying at the front"

 The Tinto, according to this plan, is keeping watch for Q steamer fly ing the flag of one of the Entente nations which it hopes to capture. In such an event the crew would be transferred to the TlntO, and the present German crew aboard the Tin to would take charge of the prize and start on a plan to destroy all Allied ships carrying nitrates neces- sary in powder making from Chile bound to Allied ports.
 Adventurous Career
 It is stated that because Of the failure of the Chilean navy to locate the Tinto a number of British cruis- CTS from the Falklands are now en- gagged in securing the ocean looking for the vessel.
 The Tinto has had an adventurous career She was originally interned, but later put out to sea, being re- leased. and was reported to have been met on the ocean by another sailer, which took off the Chilean crew and replaced 1t with German sailors.

The beauty parlor" scenes were elab- crate. The Triangle feature was sons believed Columbus did, but with plenty of good scenery. Helen Ware. not a beauty by any means, but a clever actress and Courtenay Foote played the leads.

BANKS MUST PAY
AT 80 PER CENT
City Council Overrules Action OF City
Supervisors In Lowering AS
sessment To 65 Per Cent

Corporations and banks will be tax
ed at 80 per cent. of their capital
stock for the current year, as before,
as the result of action of the Stan
ford City Council at its meeting last
week. The action of the City Board
of Supervisors in reducing the as
sesment of banks and corporations to
60 per cent. was overruled by the
city fathers, who have the power of
sort of court of appeals over the ac-
ton of the supervisors. The members
of the board of supervisors who are
Messrs. j. A. Allen, j. N. Menefee,
Sr., and G. H. Masters, fixed the bank
and corporation tax at 65 per cent.
as they felt that this is about equit-
able with the assessment upon other
forms of property owned by indivi-
duals. The City Council took a diff
ferent view of the matter, however,
and ordered the assessment increased
to so per cent. valuation.
The Council renewed the soft
drink license of w. A. Harvey on
Depot street, at the 5000 rate until
August s, 1917, at which time, it
has been agreed all of the chop Ii
censes will expire at that rate, when
the new rate of $1,000, adopted a
short time ago will become formally
effective. This action was taken, it
is understood, with the desire that
the Council play no favorites, and put
all of these places upon the same and
equal footing.
The Council made its annual set
Element with the Stanford Water,
Light and Ice Company for lights and
water for the city, and renewed the
contract with the company for the
next year on the same terms. The
figure paid is about $4,000 a year.
