DENVER, Colo., July a With a final round of department meeting, round table pathf Tints, directors' conferences, topped off with a monster maul meeting in the Auditorium the National Education asso ciation came to a close tonight. rr. Henry B. Favlll, M. D.. of Chicago, president of the Chicago Municipal Voters' league, was the principal speaker. His subject, "Should the Public School Be the Bulwark of Public Health TM was one of Intense Interest because of tha attention given school hygiene and manual training during tha convention. Ha said: . "Physical health la the basis of mental and moral Integrity. The question of pub llo health la tha most vital question con nected with social and moral progress. This Involves, howaver, an Intelligent broadening of school activities to the point of corelating through the school the social activities of Its contingent community. "Tha relation of tha school ta tha child during the formative porloa" of Its life, the period during which the child la re ceiving his growth, mental and physical, puts beyond question- tha obligation to es tablish this Ideal." Thla waa the argument made by Dr. Favlll In ' his contention that the school Is the guardian of tha' health of the child. Frank Chapman 8harp, professor of philosophy tff the University of Wiscon sin, gave an illustration from a Wisconsin school of an experiment in. moral educa tion, which he said waa beyond question successful. s Norniels .Arc Defended. Another defense of tha normal school as a preparatory school for teachers as against tha claims of tha university edu cators that the ' normal Is Insufficient was made this morning .In the department of normal snhoola of the National Education association. Tha closing days of tha association meet ing opened with meetings In the depart ment of art, child study, normal education, rural and agricultural' and physical. Nota . bla In tha departtnenfof physical training i was tha consensus of opinion among teach- ere against foot bait as an athletic sport and tha general feeling that sturdy boya ara given tha preference tn physical work to the detriment of their weaker brothers. This evening at tha general aesalon of tha association Dr. Henry ft. Favlll, II. D., of Chicago will discuss the question of whether tha school should ba the bulwark of public health. Dr. FavM was to have spoken last night, but waa stalled tn Kan sas by a railway wreck. "Our cities are filled with miserable women, ' heart-sick men, and blighted homes, due to a lack of Instruction , for girls In the grammar and high school courses In tha fundamentals, of home eco nomic." This was the statement made by President Cree T. Work of tha College of Industrial Arts, Denton, Tex., In an ad dress at tha National Education associa tion convention today. Tha speaker. In tha address, which waa delivered before tha department of manual training, pleaded for the more' general Introduction Into tha public school curriculum of arts and sci ences related to home lntereets. Presi dent Work reoognixed the desirability of Vocational Schools for women, but em phasised the Idea that the courses In such schools should also provide thorough prac tical training In me economics, because, ahatever tha present ambitions and oc cupations of the girls, they will soma day have homes ta direct. , Not Lot of Sport. "Our girls should know tha "how" of the art of housekeeping and homemaktng at leat fully as well aa their mothers, and the 'why' a good deal better," said the tptaker. "The financial problems of the home and household accounts must be atudled. A practical acquaintance with tha problems of housekeeping adds to tha freedom and comfort of women and girls. and also prepares them for taking their part In safeguarding the home against tha Impositions of a conscienceless com mercial ' world. ThrouKh such training time and opportunity ara gained for the all-Important Intellectual and social life f the home."

Secretary Balllnger today gave out a statement which shows Skat the Increase of the reclamation fund, caused by the disposal of public lands for the fiscal year ended June 80, la estimated at 17,770.000. As not all of tha land offices have yet bean heard from, this osUmate Is sub ject to minor corrections. There has alsj aocrwed to tha fund through repayment of building charges S1.OCO.000. Not all of this Is paid In, as charges do not become delinquent until after the failure to make two payments. The balance available In tha treasury to meet existing contracts and carry on work to December 11, UCv, Is $4,600,000. In addition Is an amount of $1,400,000 from the $7,770.0110 above named, this being advanced to cover contracts now In hand. The existing contracts and lia bilities on unpaid accounts and expenses Incidental to carrying out various con tracts will absorb all of this amount. Plana are, therefore, being made to utilise funds available for 1810. These plana will be presented to the secretary of the In terior after a conference of the leading engineers of tha reclamation service at Portland, Ore., during the latter part of July. The government has accepted the bid of Bishop O'Gorman of Sioux Falls, 6. D., for the purchase of the Indian school building at Chamberlain, S.

With the tariff bill in the house and conference committees of the two houses appointed the scene of tariff legls tlon Is changed to the conference room. It la understood that President Taft will take up the tariff bill with the conference committee and will plainly state the peti tion of the administration. Substantial re ductions In the more important schedules on one hand and veto on Ahe other con fronts the conferees. President Taft Is not In a position to argue with members of the conference committee aa to the merits of any particular schedule. He has indi cated In his public addresses what he be lieves to be the trend of the times, and it is expected that he will outline to the con ference committee what ha believes to be the temper of the country. With that said and done, he will calmly wait for the ver dict of congress. Committees Queerly Constltnted. The makeup of the conference committee. In some particulars is not only unusual but significant. Kansas Is the farthest western state to have a representative on the com mittee, Mr. Calderhead. New England, the middle states and the middle northwest have ' been peculiarly looked after. New England has three representatives In Aid rich. Hale and McCall. The middle1 states will be represented by Payne of New York, Penrose and Dalzell of Pennsylvania. Illi nois gets two members. Senator Cullom and Representative Boutell, while the aouth has Daniel, Money and Bailey on the sen ate side, with Clark. Underwood and Griggs on the part of tbe democratic side of the house. Interests Well Cared For. Now, as to the schedules which these conferees will look after particularly, and herein la a story worthy larger analysis than can be made in thla dispatch-. A Id rich will have particular charge of tha textile schedule. Including both cotton and wool. Hale ia Intensely Interested In wood pulp and print paper in combination with lumber. Penrose and Dalsell, stanch pro tectionists, will look out for all metal schedules, together wtlh ooal and oil. Sen ator Burrows and Congressman Fordney are special representatives of lumber and beet sugar. McCall of Massachusetts, It Is said, will trade everything for free hides. Calderhead of Kansas la against free hides, but la very greatly Interested In oil, and he may see his way clear to yield free hides for a protective duty on petroleum. Senator Cullom, who at the last moment was placed on the oommtttee instead of Senator Smoot, as was most generally thought would be the case, will answer the roll call and most generally be found with Mr. Aldrlch in whatever he desires to con vince tha house conferees. Democrats with Aldrlch. As for democrats, Daniel of Virginia very frankly admitted in a speech on the floor of the senate that he believed in tha prin ciple of protection, while Senator Bailey has been outspoken In his opposition to free raw material. Senator Money of Missis sippi will be found trailing along with ben ator Bailey, sometimes voting for duty and sometimes against, as local conditions war rant. It, of course, may ba expected that there will be a majority and minority con ference report, demoorats, in order to be regular and hold to old landmarks, follow ing precedents in both the McKlnley and Dlngley tariff bills. Smoot May Go On. The difference In the number of conferees the house having nine and the senate eight is explained In the appointment of Mr. Calderhead, Speaker Cannon being in favor of the Kansas man, while Mr. Payne was against his appointment, on the theory that it would make the committee rather unwleldly. The speaker's views obtained, and hence nine members from the house. This dissimilarity in the numbers of the conferees will. In all probability, be changed when tha senate meets next Tuesday, It (Continued on Second Page,) Guests) of Reid at Dinner and Lady Lansdowne, Lord and Lady londonderry. tha Dowager Lady DudUy, Lady Yarborough, Lord Revelstoke, the RC Hon.

Dorchester house was surpaased In brilliance by the temporary supper room, which waa erected over the north terrace and lawn. This In reality was a large tent, but so skillfully transformed that R resembled a great conservatory. Enormous mirrors were let Into the sides and giant chandeliers hung from the ceiling, throw ing out a light that was almost daxxllng. This, however, was relieved by row after row of flowers, which covered every bars space and the delicately Unted walls and celling. One end, of the tent was left open, the only screen being the shrubbery, whloh was Interlaced with a myriad of colored lights, making a pretty background and at tha same time allowing a continuous pas sage of fresh air.

SUFFRAGETTES LOSE IN COURT Magistrate Decides Women. Have No Right to Present Petition to Pre mler Women Will Starve .- Themselves. LONDON, July 9 Sir Albert De Rutsen, chief magistrate of the Metropolitan po lice court, today decided against the suf fragettes on the point raised by Miss Pank hurst regarding their right to present a petition to the premier and sentenced Miss Pankhurst to pay a fine of $26 or go to prison for a month for resisting the po lice. Miss Pankhurst, who defended herself, declared her assault on Police Inspector Jarvlson June 20, when 116 suffragettes were arrested for trying to force their way Into the House of Commons, was her 'gauge of battle to the government and defiance for Its unconstitutional ways." 'I was aware," continued Miss Pank hurst, "thst when I started that deputa tion of eight helpless women, about whom men armed with opera glasses had con gregated to watch as though It waa a good show, It was bound to result In ignominious humiliation; but until women have the power to elect representatives to Parliament It Is their duty to maintain the right of a subject to petition ths king through Parliament. If the magistrate re peats his former sentences we will go to prison, but we will not conform any longer with the prison regulations. As political offenders we will insist on being treated as such and not. as .ordinary criminals, and In the last resort we will act as did Miss Dunlop.". Miss Dunlop obtained her . release yes terday by starvingherself for twenty-ona hours. Mrs. Haverfield, daughter of Lord Ab- lnger, was given the same sentence as Miss Pankhurst. Both the women gave notice of appeal and were released on promising to abstain from sending fur ther deputations to the House or com mons during the present session. The cases of all other suffragettes arrested with Miss Pankhurst were adjourned pend ing the outcome of the appeal. Four suffragettes, who, under the leader ship of Mrs. Deapard. waited patlentiy for the last few days in the vicinity of parlia ment, waylaid Premier Asqulth in Downing street today. The women shouted, "Peti tion, petition! will you grant us a hearing?" Tha premier turned on the steps of his residence, saying: "I will take the peti tion." He descended, and having accepted the petition, entered his house without listening to any explanation. The deputa tion withdrew, but on returning later went arrested and charged at the. police court with disorderly conduct, i They were re manded until Monday.

Falling from her father's private car attached to a Burlington train, Miss Lois Campbell, daughter of Vice President Campbell of tha Frisco road, had the pres ence of mind to flag a freight train which happened along shortly after her accident and ride to Sweetwater, where she was found by her almost frantlo parents. The accident happened while the train waa near Sweetwater, between Broken Bow and Ravenna, last night. The train approached Ravenna before her disappearance had been noticed. The special oar was on the rear of the train. Her father, almost frantlo at the discov ery, had the oar detached. Procuring an engine from a westbound train, Mr. Camp bell and the train crew started back to look for the girl. Orders were at once sent out to all train crewa to run slowly and look for the girl. When the special reached Sweetwater Miss Campbell waa already there. She had a severe fall, as the train waa running swiftly, but soon recovered consciousness, and not being seriously Injured, she flagged the freight train and rode to Sweetwater on the engine, reaching there at t o'clock this morning. Tha special car was attached to an en gine and ha regular train was overtaken at Napier, In tbe southern part of the state. Both Mr. and Mrs. Campbell were almost prostrated until their daughter was found. It Is said they have already lost three chil dren In railway accidents. Asks Nations to Lower Duties.

Rockefeller Gives Away Ten Millions in a Bunch NEW YORK. July l.-John D. Rockefel ler today Increased his donations to the General Education board by a glfa of $10, 000.000, and also released tha board from the obligation to held in perpetuity the funds contributed by him. This gift brings Mr. Rockefeller's dona tions to tha General Education board to $52,000,000. It was contributed, according to Chairman F. T. Gates of the board, be cause the Income available for appreciation had been exhausted, and a larger Income to meet Important educational needs had been necessary. Mr. Rockefeller's action empowering the board and Ita successors to distribute the principal of the fund contributed by him self on the affirmative vote of two-thirds of Its members, was said to have been taken In consideration of ths probability now remote that at soma future time the purpose of the Rockefeller foundation might become obsolete. Under the orig inal conditions ths fund would have had to continue In perpetuity. In acknowledging Mr. Rockefeller's gift, the board aent him a Utter, which "accepted with gratitude thla new proof of your generosity, your seal for an educated cltl senship in this democracy, and of your NEXT MEETING FOR WORK Congressman Ellis Looks for Good Results in Omaha Convention.

The former president of the congress was at the Hotel Loyal, where he and other delegates from Kansas City were entertained at dinner by Manager Tag gert. "You see ltls this way," said Mr. Ellis. "The Missouri river Is a mighty b'lr stream and Is virtually three rivers. There Is one stretch up In Montana and northern North Dakota which runs easterly, and that Is one section. Then there Is another stretch from below Bismarck down to about Sioux City which runs In a south erly direction and that la another section. Then' there Is a third stretch past your city and mine which flows southeasterly, and that la a third section, or a third river.

MAY REDRAFT ENTIRE LAW Aldricb. Saa tha. Corporation Pro vision is Likely to Be Recast oat Lines Orlstinnlly Agreed I'pon. WASHINGTON, July .-No time was lost today by tbe conferees of the house and senate in getting together to map out the program for the many sessions that must bo held for the purpose of putting the finishing touches on tariff legislation. Many of the differences between the two bodies, represented by 847 amendments, are likely to be contested with bitterness, but Chairman Aldrlch of the senate finance committee and Chairman Payne of the houM ways and means committee agrees that It may be possible to reach an agree ment within ten days. The two leaders are not so sanguine of their ability to get the confer en oe reports adopted so speedily after they have been presented to the house and the senate, Cavnnon Causes Frlotlon. The manner In which the bouse con ferees were selected by Speaker Cannon Is occasioning muoh ciitlotsm In tha house and an effort la being made to have Presi dent Taft take part in the threatened con troversy. According to current report, Mr. Payne sought to have the republican con ferees named In order of their seniority, as was done in the senate. The speaker chose the confereea himself. Ignoring Rep resentatives Hill of Connecticut and Need ham of California. Representatives Calder head of Kansas and Fordney of Michigan, who were uamad In spite of the fact that they are outranked by Messrs. Hill and Neodham, are declared to be "standpat ters" of the most pronounced type. Friends of Chairman Payne are authority (or the statement that ha did not con sent to Speaker Cannon's selections until after he had entered a vigorous protest. It was reported that the two were en gaged In a heated argument over the ques tion before the house assembled today. Mr. Payne was powerless to prevent the speaker from selecting such conferees as he chose. Cannon for Senate Bill. After his conference with the speaker Mr. Payne Is said to have told a number of his friends that he believed the con fereea had been chosen with a view ol putting the tariff bill through as speedily as possible along senate lines. By this was meant that the house con ferees were expected to acquiesce in tha principal Increases In rates that had been made by the senate. As soon aa the senate adjourned today Mr. Aldrlch telephoned to Mr. Payne, ask ing him to ge the house conferees to gether, and to meet the senate conferee! In the finance committee rooms in tin senate office building at 8:30 p. m. Senator Aldrlch then went to the Whltt House, where he had an extended con ference with President Taft, who had Just returned from New England. Th president questioned Mr. Aldrtch concern ing many of the amendments to the tarlfl bills made by the senate, but It la said he did not criticise any of the proceeding of that body, except the acceptance of an amendment to the corporation tax pro vision making it applicable to holding com panies. The inference gained by Mr. Taft'i callers today is that he would not sanc tion tha adoption of an amendment taxing tha net earnings of corporations unless the utmost caution la taken to prevent double taxation. May Redraft' Corporation Tax, After the conference with the president. Mr. Aldrlch said that it might ba neces sary to entirely redraft the corporation tax provision in conference. It thla ' ia done, he said, the new provision will be along the lines of that agreed ' upon at the recent White House conference. All of the conferees, Including the democratic members, met in the senate building at the appointed time. They -were In session about an hour, when the democratic mem bers were dismissed. Senator Bailey and Representative Champ Clark, walking out together, laughingly told a number of wait ing newspaper men that they could not expect much help from- the domoorata la covering the news of the oonfereooe. "We have been dismissed," said Mr. Bailey, "and he will not be oalKed In ann until the majority completes Its Job of tool ing the people." Senator Aldrlch frankly told tha minority that the majority would prepare Its report without assistance. No protest was made by the democrats, a It had been known all along that they would not bo permitted to participate In making up tbe conference re port, any more than they had been per mitted to have a hand in making up the bill In committees. , After the departure of the democrats, the republican confereea talked for a short time without taking up the bill. They agreed that It might be advisable to appoint sub conferees to consider portions of tha bill where the phraseology Is vital. This nsver has been done In the previous conferences on tariff legislation, but It Is believed this course will facilitate the making of reports. An adjournment was taken tonight until 10 o'clock tomorrow. It la expected that forenoon, afternoon and evening sessions will be held dally. Nothing In ths way of a schedule, was taken up today.
