High School Notes


The baseball situation at the high
school is in a doubtful way. On account
Of lack Of funds the student body can
not appropriate any money 10 this ae-
tivity which in the past has been one
Of the main athletic activities Of the
school.
Manager Ross however has scheduled
games with teams that will pay Sa-
lem's way to their town but viii not
demand a return game in Salem. These
towns are Amity, WOodburn, Silverton
and Monroe and are not expected to
put out good teams, so Salem will not
play any team OF her own class as the
prospects are now.
If any funds are raised games will
be likely to be scheduled with the
larger Willamette valley teams if these
teams have an open date.
M
Track season will soon begin. Coach
Fletcher will call a meeting Monday
for the purpose of lining up track pros
poets which from present indications
seem TO be good.
Manager Bales has so far scheduled
meets with Eugene, Lincoln high of
Portland and the o. A. c. freshman.
He has also scheduled a dual meet
between the Willamette valley high
schools sometime in May.

when an engine OF the G. S. & f. Ry,

prominent young farmer Of Omega,
at Ridge avenue crossing here. Rut-
land was almost completely devoid of

wreck, and was hurried to a local hos
pital where he is in a critical condi-
ton. His 10-year-old brother was
found in the tracks between the rails
and the tender of the engine, Nut slight
" hart
While the crowd that gathered at
this scene was busy getting Rutland
and his brother out, the first alarm
sounded and it was discovered that
the city jail was Attire. The fire was
caused by Ben Lanier, who had been
incarcerated for being drunk. Disrob-
ing entirely and setting his clothing

burn his way to freedom, All his cloth

DESPERATE NEGRO hobo
SHOOTS TWO TRAINMEN
FIagn1an and Conductor On A. c. l..
Badly Wounded by Man Believed to
Be Escaped Murderer. 80. -.

| Waycross, March 20.-As the result
| Of an encounter with a negro hobo
few l2iles south Of Dupont, On the
Iig!. Springs branch of the Atlantic
Coast Line, Flagman J. L. Singletary
and Conductor j. Mark aPrker, OF
ThCmasville, are under care of physi-
Clans in a Waycross hospital. Flag
man Singletary was shot through both
lungs and may die. Conductor Parker
is suffering from scalp wounds and
bruises received at the hands of the
black, when he went to the rescue OF
the flagman.
The negro was found riding a car
near the rear Of the train. The flag
man ordered him out, whereupon the
negro pulled a revolver and fired. The
young man fell and the negro went
through his pockets as quickly as pos
sible, taking his watch and money.
Conductor rker ran forward and
as he approached the car where the
negro was hiding, he was fired on
twice. oBth shots went wild. Then
TIE negro attacked him with the butt
of the gun. They fought for some
time, the conductor being thrown over
the side OF the car, only having his life
by catching a standard and pulling
himself back again.
floor of the car and left for dead by
the desperate, the conductor crawled
to the end of the flat car and cut loose
the air hose, which brought the train
to a stop.
The engineer rushed back and found
the flagman unconscious with two bull
let wounds through his chest, and the
conductor lying in pool of blood
on the flat car. Officials were notified
as quickly as possible and special
agents and deputies secured the re-
gions for the negro. A fairly good de-
scription of his was given. The ne
gro is believed to hace been an es-
capped murderer, who killed woman
at Haylow two weeks ago.
The condition of Singletary remains
the same. He is in the Cost Line hos
rital at the point of death. The condi-
ton OF the conductor who was Sc
verely beaten over head by the ne
gro is much improved.

As To Library
EDITOR THE TINES:

EDITOR THE TINES:
The continuous vaudeville per-
Torrance being carried on in the
editorial columns of a local even
ing paper anent the public IL
brary must be particularly edify-
ing to the people of Tacoma, espe-
cially as 1t must be admitted that
the worthy editor is more fully
acquainted with the facts in the
case than the committee from the
city council who have investigated
it, and l do not believe that the
library board, who are given abso-
lutte authority by law to manage
their own affairs, would be will
ing to admit that the library has
been gronenized, except to the ex-
tent that l am responsible for get
ting their appropriation increased
$1,000 over the one-half mill levy
originally allowed by the council.
l have done everything In my
power to assist them in arranging
to maintain the branch libraries,
and even recommended a further
appropriation of $1,000, provid-
ed the board would eliminate GER
tain items in their budget which
they admitted were unnecessary.
The salary roll in their budget
for the main library was $20,09S.
They have since then reduced
the open hours 21.6 per cent.
Why? If 1t does not save money,
why do it? And If it does, the
saving should be approximately
21.6 per cent of the salary roll,
or $4,000, which is twice the
amount required to maintain the
branches on the old basis, instead
of cutting them down to II hours
per week for the Mckinley Hill
and 25 hours for the South Taco
ma branch.
Mr.. Kaiser, however, does not
seem to think these facts worth
his consideration, and in order to
bolster up his demand for more
money he is attempting to create
public sympathy to the extent
that the public will hold the coun-
Gil responsible for any deficiency
in the library service.
Considerable publicity has been
given to a supposed criticism by
me that the board had made an
educational institution of the
library. This is not true, as all
will admit that any library Is an
educational institution.
I did claim that where the
library was maintaining branches
in the public schools they were
assuming branch of work IN
an educational institution entire
ly without their jurisdiction, and
the expense therefor should be
borne by the school board as a
legitimate part of their work.
If the board will instruct their
librarian to spend less time fig
uring out how much inconven-
fence he can make for the public,
to stop his petty vaporings and
devote his time in an honest eff
fort to adjust the library's af-
fairs on an economical and eff
cient basis, he will undoubtedly
