' MA If OB TO MAKE APPOINTMENTS
Mea Derided aa, bat Net Ready ta
Make Mat Public. ,
Mayor Maloney will announce the re
mainder of his appointments, including
' city physician, city electrician, street com
missioners and poll tax collector at the
meeting of the city council tonight.
"I have practically decided on the appointments,"-
said Mayor Maloney laat
sight, "but I am going to talk them over
with the committee tomorrow morning, so
I don't' care to' say anything- before the
eeuncit meeting. The reat of the appoint
ments will be made Monday night"
CMy Treasurer True Is authority for the
Statement that there is no money in sight
Wtth which to erect a -new central fire
station aa urged by the Board of Fire and
Police commissioners In its report, which
will come before the city council tonight.
The cost of a suitable engine house would
be' in excess of (10,009 and It would take
another 110,000 to purchase the proposal
new ladder truck and engine. It has been
suggested that the city follow the plan by
which' the new engine house in the south
part ef the city waa erected. Thia house
waa built by a number of business men,
the city paying an annual rental equal to
i per cent on the investment until It had
f unda In the municipal treasury to lift
the mortgage. It Is believed the business
men of the city would furnish the funds for
this purpose, seeing that their Investment
would bring 6 per cent.
The entire matter of a new engine housa
and the proposed additional equipment will
likely be referred to a special committee
Ct the city council tonight.

Saadajr Ball - Problem.
Des Moines Is face to face with trouble
over the' Sunday bare ball situation.
Councilman Hamery, who la In charge of
the police department, has made up hU
mind that Sunday base ball Is against the
law. He made up his mind some years
ago that thinga that are against the law
should not be tolerated, that the laws
should be enforced and that If the ! people
do not w-ant them enforced tile thing for
them to do Is to repeal the laws. ,
, To make tip hia mind on a problem Is
to settle it so far as Mr. Hamery ia con
cerned. He has read In the statute books
that Sunday base ball Is prohibited. There
fore Des Moines (not Mr. Hamery) is face
to face with the Sunday base ball question.
If It were a city ordinances the city might
aolve the problem easily by repealing the
ordinance. The city has In Its new charter
the Initiative and referendum and can re
peal ordinances and pass new ones direct
without waiting for the city council to do
It. But it la a state law, and the legisla
ture will not meet till next January. In
the meantime the base ball season is Just
opening and will be over with before the
legislature meets.
In Des Moines this is a serious situation.
Some think they cannot get along without
Sunday base ball. Dea Moines has tho
Western league team,, and has had Sunday
base ball for some years. As viewed by a
person who Is "rational" on the subject
of base ball the matter does not seem to
be alarming.

tendance at the association meeting were
teachers from 8cott. county. The associa
tion adopted unanimously a resolution en
dorsing the new certificate law and endors-'
Ing the action of ; State Superintendent
Riggs in securing the law. Particularly it
endorsed the law a tending to great unl.
formity and a higher grade of teachers.
Just the thing on which the Davenport
teachers first fought it. The action taken
at this - association is taken aa evidence
that they have beoome convinced of the'
good features of the new law and have
completely changed their minds.

Seek to I an prove Schools.
Governor Cummins has designated April
24 as' Arbor day, to be observed by the
publlo schools of Iowa. The proclamation
In conformity with the provisions of law
are being' sent out to the school teachers
by State ' Superintendent John F. Rlggs.
Incidentally, Frof. Riggs Is endeavoring to
get the school , eachers pf Iowa to use
Arbor day for suinething more than merely
the planting ofiaitree each year.
The very beef suggestions to be had on
beautifying school grounds by providing for
trees in cluster as an adornment to the
grounds are being circulated. Pictures
showing the appearance of achool grounds
before adorned with trees and -shrubs and
after ao adorned are circulated to show the
teachers the difference and the desirability
of making the change and planting trees.
School directors are addressed on the sub
ject and their interest secured.
It is a notorious fact that many of the
achool yards ot Jowa are a disgrace 'to the
state. They are barren of either tree, shrub
or grass and should, a person come upon
such a school yard apart from the sur
rounding landscape or see a picture of It
alone, he might readily suspect that It was
located In some desert or arid region where
water is scarce and trees will not grow, In
stead or In the grandest and moat fertile
state the sun ever, shone on.
For many years Arbor day In the schools
has been merely a sort of vacation for the
school In which, one little runvty tree Is
planted and aome child speaks, "Woodman
Spare that Tree." Now Prof. Rlggs Is seek
ing to impress on the patrons of the school
that with little work and no money a school
ysrd can be made a source of pride to the
neighborhood and an attractive place for
the children.

HAYIl IN DEPLORABLE STATE
Denial that Executions Continue, but
Many Men Are Missing.
EXPECT FOREIGN INTERVENTION
General Admlealoa There Is No Native
Leader Capable of Brlnalaa the
Coantry- Oat of the Rloagh

PORT AU PRINCE,. Hayti. April 20.
While there have been many arrests of
natlvea suspected of sympathy with the late
revolution and political prisoners continue
to be brought In In hatches from Interior
points, there have been no more publlo
shootings hero. Indeed the government
denies that any more executions have
taken place. This, however. Is Incredible,
In view of the fact that many persons are
known to have been dragged from their
beds at night and that all trace ot them
has been lost.
In the executions of March 15, President
Nord Alexis achieved the double purpose
of obliterating as many of his foee as he
could lay hands on and striking terror
Into the hearts of those who were beyond
his reach. Since then his name, and that
of his ferocious lieutenant. General Julea
Alexia Colcou. who personally directed the
shooting of the prisoners. Including some
of his own blood relatives, are only men
tioned In whispers. All Hayti trembles be
fore them. Alexis has made the signifi
cant statement that If he Is not permitted
to end his term of office unmolested he
will rather than submit to deposition, write
his name on the scroll of fame in the
blood of such a massacre as Hayti has not
seen since the days of Dessallnes, once
known as Jean Jacques I. No one doubts
his ability to carry out this threat, which
Is understood to be Intended as a deterrent
not only to revolutionists, nut to any at
tempt at foreign Interference in the affairs
of Hayti.
Time for Rettlemeat.
With order restored and their lives and
property under the protection of ships of
war, the foremost question In tbe minds
of foreign residents Is whether the time haa
not come for the adoption of a final solu
tion of the Haytlen question. All agree
that Hayti, during its 105 years of Inde
pendence, has not shown great capacity for
self government and the affairs of the is
land have now reached about the lowest
ebb In Its history. Destitution prevails on
every hand: ragged soldiers swarm the
streets begging plteously, and even officers,
bedizened In dingy gold and silver laco, are
profuse In thanks for a dole of I cents.
The soldiers beg because their pay, when
they get it. amounts to less than 30 cents
