ENORMOUS BUDGET ¢ Largest Amount Passed Includes $4,000,000 for Schools San Juan, P. R, July 21.—Out of a budget of $10,000,000 passed by thae recent legislature and just approved by Acting Governor Jose Benedicto, a little more than $4,000,000 is set aside for the public schools of the island. This is $1,000,000 more than the last school budget and the largest amount ever appropriated for educa- tion in any one year The budget is the largest ever ap- proved. Including bond issues and direct appropriations, the legislature voted expenditures of $20,000,000 but several of the projects involving large sums may be vetoed by the governor. Among the bond issues authorized were those for $3,000,000 for the .ex- tending of a railroad around the isl- and; $1,000,000 for an insular bank; $2,000,00¢ road extension and im- provemeni bonds and $1,000,000 for rural schools. A new income tax taw provides a normal tax rate of three per cent for both individual and corporate in- comes and limits the additional in- come tax to 15 per cent for individ- uals and to 20 per cent for corpora- tions. The law provides that “additional returns”’ may be filed where revisions are 1ecessary for individuals or firms whose returns last August were based on anticipated profits which were not receied. A commission was authorized to study a proposal that the insular gov- ernment purchase steamships from the United States shipping board to provide Ltetter transportation for the island. MARRIED MAN CAN GO OUT WITH WOMAN Florida Supreme Court Says Nothing Wrong in Friendships Between Mar- ried Woman and Another Man. Tallahassee, Fla, July 21.—A wife has the right to be alone with a man friend on a public highway without in- terference from her husband, according to,a recent decision of the Florida supreme court. The case came up through a husband meeting his wife riding alone with another man. He attacked the man, and as a result of the fight that ensued his wife’s companion was convicted of assault with intent to murder. The state supreme court reversed the lower tribunai, - ““There may have been a time when a wife was regarded as her husband's chattel, and being out alone on a pub- lic road, with another man regarded as sufficient provocation to justify the husband in making an assault upon her companion, but this is no longer true, when women enjoy equal freedom with ' said the opinion read by Chief J ce Brown. “‘The mere walking or driving of a i 1ed woman with another man, or a married man with another woman, is not sufficient provocation to justify an assault by either spouse, and the great- er freedom of intercourse between men and women in this day protects them from unwarranted attacks by a jealous husband or wife, who sees in innocent acts of social intercourse ‘confirmations strong as proofs of holy writ’ that they are flagrantly immoral.”’ FAIR WAS PROFITABLE Dividends Being Paid After Payments of Debts of World's Fair Held at San Francisco. San Francisco, July 21—One of the few cash dividends ever declared by a world’s fair was announced here re- cently by trustees of the Panama Pa- cific International Exposition, which attracted thousands fro mall parts of the world to San Francisco in 1915. The dividend, the first and last paid by the exposition company, was for eight per cent on the stock approxi- mating $5,500,000. Checks covering the dividend will be sent to stock. holders August 1. The exposition company also gave the city of San Francisco the huge exposition auditorium here and its or- 2an. The last Democratic national convention was held in the auditor- ium. Another gift to the city resulting from the exposition is an area of four blocks along the Marina, a bay- fiont stretch of the exposition grounds not far inside the Golden Gate. It came from Stockholders who decline to accept their dividend and put the money into the property to give to the city. It is probable the tract will 2 converted into a marine park and houlevard. BLUNT SPEAKING. London, July 21.—The reputation which Americans have of blunt speaking even in the face of royalty, is likely to be enhanced by a remark that passed between Xing George and Mr. Klumph, of Cleveland, O., on the occasion of the Rotarians’ reception at Buckingham palace, the othe: day. King George affably said to Mr. Klumph that he, too, would lika to becoma a Rotarian. “I don’t see what is to stop you,” said Mr. Klumph. ELECTRIC ROADS IN JAPAN.

WOULD MEET JOHNSON Washington Cop Who is On Demp- sey’s Trail is Not Adverse to Clashing With Negro. New York, July 21.—Henry Dar- neille, the Washington guardian of the peace who disabled a large pro- portion of the residents of Capitol Hill in order to enforce law und order, and who has started a cam- paign to get a match with Dempsey, announces that he will not draw the color line after the fashion of (he champion. Although Darneille was born in Texas and reared in Maryland, he is not unwilling to meet Jack Johnson in the ring. Darneille shows the right spirit in his willingness to meet anyone in Itfs first _matches, which and styles. Sold as high Bankrupt Sale Price 85c Fleisher’s Knitting Wool 2 oz. balls. . All colors.

Darneille has engaged Joe Jeanette as his trainer, and in all respects has shown that he is willing to show his form before he asks for a match with the topnotchers. It is not at all likely that Johnson will consent to meet the younsgster. Johnson’s idea is to set a match with some man who would be a great drawing card, and thus gather in a large crop of much needed cash. In addition, if Darneille proved to be as dangerous a hitter as he has been pictured, he might hurt the negro and thus ruin all the latter’s chances of recouping his fallen fortunes. Darneille has not as vet started training, but he could undoubtedly box four or six rounds with some op- ponent of medium ability. curiosity to see the youngster in ac- tion, and some local club would do well to put him in the ring. Incidentally, Johnson is to have a reception at the Manhattan Casino 155th street and Eighth avenue, when he reaches the city. A committee of citizens of Harlem is arranging the details, and the affair will begin early in the afternoon and last till late at night. SHE S THE DOPE.

The dispatch of troops to Kobe be- cause of the situation created by the dock yard strike there has inflamed the workers many of whom at a secret meeting in Tokio adopted a prelim- inary plan to organize Japan- ese labor into a vast organiza- tion similar to’he American Federa- tion of Labor in defiance of Japanese law which does not recognize labor uniens. It was also decided to begin a steike of 200,000 workers in Tokio unless fewer hours and increased wages are granted. The employes in the government arsenals are taking a leading part in the agitation being incensed by the re- fusal of the minister of war to receive a delegation of the men bearing reso- lutions containing the demands of the employes and asgserting the readiness of the men to sacrifice everything if necessary to obtain assurance of fu- ture relief. The arsenal workers are endeavoring to start a general striks involving ten arsenals. HILLQUIT IN TROUBLE. American Socialist Leader Not Per- mitted to Visit in England.
