LINCOLN SCHOOL AGAIN UNDER FIRE i A new school in the west end s | deemed so necessary that there is no room for argument against it, ac- cording to the west end residents, The Lincoln street building is one of the oldest in the state, and is de- clared to lack every requirement of a modern school building. If these complaints are true it is an imposi- tlon upon parents to force them to send their children to such an anti- quated building. ~ The condition of the Lincoln school has been under attack for several years; but no appreciab gains have been made in improving it because of the evident Impossibili- ¢ty of improving the building ac- | eordiug to modern s ndar, The recent scarlet fever and diphtheria epidemic west end are laid to insanitary conditions in the Lincoln school; many think it is no coincidence that such an epi- | ™ demic should gain headway in such a bullding when of ings were not the scene of such an epidemic. argument ing end s to why 1 all be structic ; but they would not be ed to find a dearth of convincing reasons for failure to provide such & structure.

This article says that the protocol will not come into force until the adop- tion of a general plan for the re- luction of armaments by the pro- posed Geneva disarmament con- ference. 1t within a period to be fixed by the latter conference, the council of the Leag 1s that the plan for reduction of \rmaments has not been carried out, | then the protocol is to become null and void.

Vessel Norfolk, Va., Feb. 25.—A raiding party of marines boarded the navy transport Beaufort when she docked here last night from the West In- dies and seized several hundred gal- lons of liquors. Some of the liquors, the raiders said, were taken from the staterooms of officers ranging n rank from’pay clegks to licutenants. The raid was conducted under direction of Captain Wilbert Smith, assistant commandant of the naval base here. Orders for the action were4ssued by Rear Admiral Welles, commandant of the fifth naval dis- trict, who is said to have received information of liquor being aboard the transport from customs officials here. S As soon as the vessel was docked, the marines were thrown around her and no one was permitted to leave until a thorough search was made of every cabin and the cargo. The confiscated liquor was taken to the administration building at the base, where it will be held until a court of inquiry can be convened to ix responsibility. ‘Whi the Beaufort was being searched all telephones out of the naval base were kept under surveil- lance and the gates closely guarded.
