Fredericksburg-The authorities of
Spotsylvania, Stafford and Fred
ericksburg are considering the ad-
visibility of erecting a community
jail at Fredericksburg. II such a
plan works out it would probably be
a great eXpense-saver as there are
but few prisoners confined in the

tain bastiles in each Of these places.
Norfolk-Engineers in Norfolk and
the vicinity of Hampton Roads are
looking forward to the visit of more

The temporary furry caused by pub
lication of the alleged secret agree
ment of the French and japanese III
Siberia is over and the incident is
closed with official denials of the au-
thenticity of documents produced to
prove existence of the agreement,
but there is now no doubt in the minds
of experts here that some sort OF
agreement on Siberian matters must
be effected before the close of this
conference.
If, therefore, the Chita government S
charges have had no other effect, they
have at least called attention of the
world to the situation in Siberia where
Japan occupies a position that has no
justification whatever and which has
been, since the time of Secretary OF
State Colby up TO the time Of the call
ing of this conference, the subject OF
several protests by this government.
The name of Walter S. Dickey, of
Kansas City, Mo-, has been brought
to the attention of President Hard

master General Will Fl. Hays, in case
the latter decides to accept the tempt
ing offer made him by the moving pic
ture corporation. Senator Spencer, Of
Missouri, is sponsor for the candidacy
of Dickey, who is backed by the entire
Republican organization of the state.
Hays is giving the tender serious con-
sideration but will not be ready with
his reply until January II.

SPOKANE PLANS
 BETTER RECORD
Most Intelligent City Pro- poses to Now Seek Out
 All Illiterates.

SPOKANE, Wash, Jan. 14.-Not content with the entire rating re- gently given it by the United States Census Bureau as the most 'intelli- gent" city in the nation, Spokane now proposes to seek out the 867 illiterates found by the census enum- orators within it's border and better it's record.
 The matter has been brought be- fcre the Educational Committee of the Chamber of Commerce, which has promised to give the proposal it's early attention. Meanwhile the pub lie night schools, which have been in operation here for more than ten wears, are planning to enlarge their operations to reach as many of the foreign born of the city as possible.
 With this end in view each of the 200 foreign born students in the night classes, most of them men and women, are being urged to induce their friends to enroll for work next term, and most of them have prom iscd to bring at least one additional student.
 During the last ten years, since accurate records of night school at tendance have been kept, total of 19, ,153 persons have ben enrolled in the night classes Allowing that each of these have been enrolled on an average during two different terms, Frank H. Arnold. Supervisor of Public Evening Schools, estimates that one in every ten persons in the city's populatlon of approximately 100, ,000 has attended night school during the decade.
 or this total, he said, 3,741 for eign born have been enrolled during the last six years. Records as to foreign or native birth were not kept prior to that time.
 Attention to foreign born citizens to night school classes is obtained by various means. Enrolment dates and courses offered are brought be- fore them through announcements in the newspapers. street car advertise ments, employers of labor, the pub lie day schools and the pulpits Of congregations largely including for eign born people.
 As means of making available night school advantages to num- Der of men of Greek birth employed il shoe shining establishments. Stu ocrviscr Arnold last fall organized an evening class in elementary Eng
