At this juncture Colonel Harrington thipped in with the suggestion that Dr. Lawlor had everything to lose and noth- Ing to gain by an official investigation. It would involve the rehash of all the old Charges, he said, and in his opinion the g_bll( wag sick and tired of the scandal conneéction with the institution. “You, sir,” continued the colonel, ad- @ressing Dr. Lawlor, “will be subjectedl fo harsher criticism than you were sub- Jected to in the past if you covet this in- ¥estigation. Furthermore, I don’t see any fiecessity for an investigation. There are #o charges on file with thjs board and $onsequently there is nothing to investi- gate. You have resigned, your successor Bas been chosen and I, for one, insist #hat the incident is closed.” President Gould was of the opinion that € superintendent ought to be exoner- #icd and he expressed his willingness to #tant his request for an official inquiry. “Then, Mr. President,” said Dr. Hane, *I move that this board convene here, at fhe Home, on next Tuesday morning at We do not Ask for a Dollar Until Cure Is Effected.

President Gould then put the motion and it was carried, Colonel Harrington's being the only dissenting voice. ““What becomes of the superintendent’s request for the withdrawal of Lis resig- nation?” was asked of President Gould. "It goes over until the mext meeting without prejudice,” was his reply. LAWLOR WANTS TO REMAIN. And so it was that Dr. Lawlor won-the first round in his fight for retention as Superintendent of the institution, Al- though he disclaimed any degire to be retained, it was generally understood that he didn't mean this. He expects to prove false the accusations of brutality against his administration, and on a clean bill of lading, as it were, he hopes to have his resignation recalled and to remain as head of the Home. Early in the day it was apparent_ that a bitter fight would be made against the | acceptance 6f Dr. Dawson as supérin- | tendent, although he was legally elected | at the last meeting of the board. He was |'on hand with his credentials, his bond in | the sum of $10,00 having been signed by | C. E. Davis, George 0. Hunt and George L. Pratt, all responsible citizens. The | bond was approved by the Governor, also. The first skirmish of the day came with the motion of Colonel Harrington, Wwho placed Rev, Dr. Bane in nomina- | tion for president of the new board, Al- though a new man, he said, Dr. Bane was well versed in parllamentary tactics and qualified in every manner for -the position. He thought his election would heal the sores left open by thé old board, and in the interest of peace and harmony he urged Dr. Bane's election. H. B. Le- land, one of the old members, nominated | C. Walter Gould, and he was elected by a vote of 3 to 2. The vote, as recorded, stands as follows: For Gould—Lyons, Bane and Leland; for Bane—Gould and Harrington. Immediately after the election of the | new officers Dr. Dawson’s bond was lald | before the board, and after being inspect- ed by the trustees Colonel Harrjngton | moved its acceptance, which was ail that was required to clinch his election and to make him, instead of Dr. ' Lawlor, superintendent of the institution. GOULD OBJECTS TO BOND. To the surprise of every one not in on the little prearranged programme, President Gould objected to the bond. “While this bond is all right on its face,” he declared, “I do not believe any business man would @ccept it in lieu of a check for $10,000. And while I do hot doubt that the gentje- men who signed it are well able to meet the obligation, should fhey be called upon to do so, I insist it is not a business-like way of doing things. I suggest that Mr. Dawson be required to furnish a surety bond.” o Colonel Harrington was quick to his eet. “I think this is sheer nonsense,” he shouted. “‘Hera is Dr. Dawson with a perfectly good bond, signed by respon- parties and certified to by the As- and indorsed by the Governor. See no reason why it should not be ac- cepted forthwith. Let's stop this petty quibbling and haggling and get down to business.” Rev. Dr. Bane took the floor%ind argued along similar lines. He thought it was time to stop “this monkey-business and get down to the business of the meéting.” Finally, after several minutes of cross: fire discussion the president put the mo- tlon to accept the bond. It was rejected by the same vote of 3 to 2, the line-up being similar t6 the previous votes. In the rejection of the bond Rev. Mr. Bane thought he detected a programme. He was quick to his feet.” “Now, gentlemen, let's have no quar- reling over technicalities. Let's = get down to business. I move that this board meet in San Francisco on Monday at 2 o’clock to accept Dr. Dawson's surety bond, if he can get it by that time.” LELAND SPARS FOR DELAY. Leland, who knows a thing or two about practical politics, and is also a friend of Doctor Lawlor, was on his feet instantly, sparring for delay. “I amend that motion by substituting the words ‘at the call of the chairman’ instead of ‘Monday at 2. In the hubbub and confusion ich followed both motions were lost sigh® of. It was well, perhaps, that the matter terminated as it did, for had not Dr. Lawlor presented his letter, Leland’s motion would have been carried with a whoop. ‘When_the question of accepting the re- ports of the superintendent for the last month came up it was found that Dr. C. E. Davis, the resident attending phy- siclan, had been dismissed. Dr. Bane wanted to know the cause of his dismis- sal. Colonel Harrington also pressed the superintendent for a reply. “He was dismissed because he was in- competent,” said Dr. Lawlor. ‘*“There {s 2 boy ow in Paxton Hall with four and one-half inches of rubber fube in his chest cavity which he in his carelessness permitted to fall in.” Dr. Bane asked for the name of the boy, and the superintendent told him it was Oliver Black. Dr. Edward Gray of Berkeley was chosen resident physician to succeed the removed official.

AMERIGANS ROUT FIERCE MAGIU MORD Captain Pershing’s Force Destroys Forty Forts, One Hundred Native Warriors Are Either Killed or Wounded. Sultans Lead a Furious Onslaught on the Troops, but Their Fol- lowers Are Anni- hilated. PRLISIENP AR MANTILA, Oct. 4—Captain John J. Per- shing’s column has completely routed the Maciu Moros in the island of Mindanoa, killing or wounding a hundred of them and capturing and destroying forty forts. Two Americans were wounded. On Tuesday the Moros retired to their largest and strongest fort on the lake shore, and Wednesday Captain Per- shing .attacked them with artillery, bombarding the enemy for three hours. At noon Lieutenant Loring, leading a squad of men, attempted to set fire to the fort He crept under the walls and started a blaze, but the Moros discovered him and forced the Americans to retire. During the afternoon the Sultan of Ca- | bugalan led a sortle at the head of a band of fanatics armed with krises. They crept through the grass and sprang up and at- tacked the Americans. The Sultan was wounded six times and boloed an Amer- ican before he died. His followers were Kkilled. In the darkness Wednesday night Cap- tain Pershing took his batteries within a hundred yards of the fort, closed in his infantry lines and resumed the attack. The Moros broke through twice and at- tempted to escape by the beach, but were discovered and many of them were killed. ‘The Moros abandoned the fort early on Thursday, after fifteen hours’ bombard- ment, and Thursday Captain Pershing de- stroyed the rest of the forts and returned to Camp Vickers. It is believed the moral effect of the Moros will be great. General Davis has ordered that hostilities be stayed in order to permit the Sultan of Bacalod and other hostile Sultans to make peace. The Sultans of Maciu were confldent of their ability to defeat the Americans and vowed béfore the fight to enter slavery voluntarily if they themselves were de- feated. General Davis has sent General Sum- ner, in command of the American forces in Mindanao, a congratulatory telegram on the success of Captain Pershing and the small American loss. i ———— Making Talking Dolls. Girls with pleasing voices find remun- erative employment in factories where ‘“talking dolls” are manufactured. These dolls contaln a miniature phonograph, and the girls are kept busy talking into the tiny machines that are afterward fitted into the dolls. They recits the fa- millar nursery Jingles, “Mother Googe” rhymes and other literature for small folk. A tube connects with the mouth of the doll and through this the phono- graph is heard when the doll is wound up. Since dolls equipped with these and" other ingenious inventions have beén put on the market the business of doll mak- ing has assumed vast proportions, and in many of the factories women form a large part of the employes. There is a constant demand for attract- ive new features, and the little people of to-day would never be satisfled with the dolls of a few years ago. “The children are so exacting nowa- days,” sald a woman who understands this business to a New York reporter, “that if you show them a doll which does not close its eyes when it is laid down they’ll invariably say: ‘No, I don’t want that. I want my doll to go to sleep.” They must have real hair on the dolls, and ‘they are quick to notice whether the tiny toes and fingers are perfect.” he work done by women consists largely of the finishing touches necessary in completing the dolls and dressing them. Certain forms of work are as- signed to each employe, and In a factory which turns.out dressed dolls one girl makes all the ruffies required, another the underwear, another the hoods, and still another fashions the dress or puts it on the doll.

PANIC VICTIMS ARE ALL AGHAST “False Alarm” In Wall Street Causes In- vestigation, AR Bpecfal Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Oct. 4—Influential Wall street interests were at work to-day try- ing to discover principals in the big con- spiracy to “rig” the stock market, which ‘was so sensationally carried out yester- day. Thirty million dollars were lost in the brief panic which was precipitated by the publication -through Wall street by news agencies of a false report of dif- ferences between Secretary Shaw and the Comptroller of the Currency, Ridgely. The governing committee of the New York Stock Exchange has taken the mat- ter up and will make an investigagion. If it discovers that the principals in the con- spiracy are within the jurisdiction of the Stock Exchange an endeavor will be made to punish them. Although $30,000,000 was lost in Wall street values involved by the raid, and, while not one-half of this was actual { values, the brief panic caused hundreds to lose all they had Invested. Weakly margined speculative accounts were total- 1y wiped out in the crash, and they there- fore could not recoup in the recovery. The manner in which the “fake” was sprung and the panic precipitated makes it evident, say the Wall street brokers, that the raid was carefully planned and timed. It was sprung at a time when the money market was in a state of appre- hension over the effect of the relief plans advanced by the Secretary and at an hour when the Washington ' wires were con- gested with news from the White House conference on the coal strike. The investigation thus far made has de- veloped nothing more than that the dis- patches which caused the panic were sent from Washington, and that they were not true, and that they were explicitly denied by the news agencies which sent them out. Sme———— How to Cure the Blues. A well known doctor of Minneapolis, who has made a specialty of nervous dis- eases, has found a new remedy for “the blues.” As no drugs are administered, he has felt safe in expsflm:un( wiIm at half hundred melancholy patients, l:n‘d.t n:w declares himself thoroughly sat- isfled with the good results of his treat- ment. His prescription reads something like this: “If you keep the corners of your mouth tumm{ up you can't feel biue.” The directions for taking are, “Smile, kesp on smiling, don’t stop smiling.” It sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it? Wel, just try turn. ing up the corners of your mouth, regard- less o:erour mood, and see how it makes you feel: thén draw the corners of your mouth down and note the effect, and you will be willing to declare *there’s some- thing in it.”" The doctor treats his nervous patients to medicine when necessary, but when the case 18 one of pure melancholy without bodily 111, he simply recommends the smile cure. He the tient remain in his office and smile; if it isn't the genuine article, it must at least be an upward curvature of the corners of the mauth, and the better feelings follow inevitably. o Ei."““&“"m"‘u"é'e’.“:‘x'f“t“mfi b and the ents a 'y to i gt. takes considerable and, of course, ‘the num| tlents are women, for when & ey Shitg, ot 5 women | Sasil ng, but & woman is more N ‘suaded to try and find a cure, ik - The doctor declares thav if will :!y u:inw d‘;awn ‘fil‘a c:rnm of their louths and use su lent will hey shed tears.

The general impression that high tem- perature is more favorable than a low one for the best development of animal life is certainly not true of marine ani- mals in general, whatever may be the facts concerning some special groups. If other conditions are favorable, a luxuri- ant fauna will be developed in any tem- perature short of the freezing point of salt water. But a change of tempera- ture, if a sudden ome, is sometimes the cause of oceanic tragedies of frightful extent, a fact illustrated by the following example: s Tre tilefish is a deep water species lv- ing upon the bottom of ‘what is known as the Gulf Stream slope, off the New En- gland coast. Here the water is normally comparatively warm, coming as it does from the superheated region of the Guif despondent mood he patented his remedy, Who choose to take of Mexico. During & series of unusually severs gales in the summer of 1582 the mass of water was pushed aside, as it were, and replaced by the cold water. millions ‘and millions of these killed, and their dead bodies literally cov- ered the surface of the sea for hundreds of square miles.
