In regard to the fact that the assesor's returns on this property were written In the book by the tax commissioner of the company, W. L. Selby, the commissioner, said: "I had tried to get the assessor to reduce the assessment In the Fourth ward, because I believed It higher than equity would warrant, but I failed in this. The last day I talked to him and found that he would make no change he was alone and asked me to write in the amount of this assess ment and of seven or eight others whloh ho had made, for the reason that his wife, who acted as his clerk, was not there and he desired to have the matter settled. I did this, and that la all there Is to It." THIEF WITH NEW SPECIALTY Rents Room and Then Proceeds to Rob the Remainder of the Hoaae.

Mr. Parker led up to - the story of the assassination by telling of his own former Ufa, of his service as mall carrier In the south and later as deputy sheriff in Sa vannah. He followed the story of his own life through all Its phases tip Until that time when he had begun service as a waiter In one of the restaurants at the Pan-American exposition. Then he told of the vast concourse of people gathered In the Temple of Muslo on the exposition grounds to hear the president speak and of the line that gathered In restless en thusiasm and good will to greet the presi dent and shake him by the hand. It was late for him to report to duty and he tried again and again to crowd before Csolgoaz, who moved forward in the line slowly and grudgingly, but the guards held him back In his own position. - "Immediately In front of Csolgosx." he aald, "was a little girl, and as the presi dent, shook her by the hand he smiled and spoke a' word to her and we all watched ,lrer. and President McKlnley, while Csol- Sobs pressed forward with his hand bound In a white cloth, and, s caking no word, raised the white-bound ' hand and fired, twice.

PUNISHMENT FOR TWO CADETS One la Prevented from Gradaatlaa aad the Other Is Reduced In Rank. By the confirmative action of the Board of Education yesterday afternoon C. J. Sutphen. a high school senior, was pro vented from graduating laat night, and a fellow classman. Lieutenant Ralph West, waa reduced to the ranks. The punishment was meted out to both lads by Command ant WasselJ of the Cadet battalion, who adjudged them guilty of insubordination while In camp. Hla aentence was sustained by the board, convened In special session. Sutphen, by the loss of three points for drill work, lacked a alngle point of the thirty-two necessary to graduate, and he therefore, did not receive his diploma West had points to spare, so got through, but lost his rank. At the board meeting yesterday after noon only Membera Mcintosh, Maynsrd Butts and Homan were absent. Although the other members convened to pass a pay roll awarding S-4.CO0 to teachera and Jan ltora, they wrestled with the discipline problem for nearly two hours. The high school committee heard the caae first and aubmitted a report, punishing the boys aa atated above. However, this was objected to on the grounds that It waa not the board's duty, so the action of the com tnandant was suatalned. The trouble at camp on the last day waa what caused the action on the part of the commandant. Member Detweller announced that at the next meeting he, will rropoae an amend ment to the rules, which 'will hereafter nuke the cadets directly responsible to the commandant for their behavior from the moment they leave on annual encampment until they return to the high school.

The Qentrys are pioneers in this line of amusement, and' their years of experience have enabled them to come very near to perfection In the matter of training animals for show purposes. Their perform lng dogs and ponies are the beet proof of the methods used to.' educate the animals Better looking and more contented beasts were never seen. A parade will be given this morning and this afternoon and even lng two more performances will be held at the tent at Eighteenth and Douglas streets. . . i - Old Settlers fclect Officers.
