Mukai, with characteristic impudence, returned to MIll Valley and re-entered the employ of Dr. Renz and his wife. His return to Mill Valley ‘was the oc- “casion of rejoicing among his fellow Nipponese, who had all returned to the school, but great indigfiation was ex- pressed by the citizens of the town. Principal F. Houch declared in no un- certain tones that the boy should not be allowed to return to the schodlroom, no matter what the Federal officials might do. If Mukai is not punistiéd for send- ing an unprintable letter to an innocent girl he~will at least be kept from fur- ther contaminating American girlhood in the school. So Mukai will not go back and be.a schoolboy, even though Dr. Carl Renz and his wife have taken him back as a servant in their home. L The other Japanese boys were in the schoolroom as usual vesterday, study- ing hard, minding their teachers, polite and obsequious, but capable, according to their own admissions, of doing the same thing that Mukal did; for they say “those things.are not wrong in Japan,” and they wonder why all the fuss is be- ing made of a little lettex sent by a Mongolian to debauch the mind of a 14-year-old girl. There were many expressions freely given in the Mill Valley community vesterday by those who are incensed at the rule which forces their children and their neighbors’ children to sit be- side Japanese adults in the schoolroom. School Trustee Osear C. Capplemann of the Mill Valley schools declared it his opinion that the mixing of the adult Japanese with young white chil- dren is radically wrong and should not be tolerated. ‘A. Brizzolara, a prominent merchant of San Francisco who lives in San An- selmo, expressed himself as being vig- orously opposed to a gontinuance of the mixing of the two races in the schoolrooms of this country. He point- ed out the -fact that the offense of Mukai was not an isolated ome. It showed, he said, in the moral standards of Mukai a standard so low that it pre- vented Mukai's Japanese associates from seeing or.understanding the vil- lainy of his crime. Brizzolara has had an unpleasant experience in his own family through the mingling of the Japanese and white children. His chil- dren, more than a year ago while at- tending the San Anselmo public school, became ‘infected with trachoma con- tracted from a Japanese “schoolboy.” { Investigation proved that the boy se from where Mukai bring their morals, and the others FEBRUARY 28, 1907. PLOT 70 ESEAPE FROM EATRAL FRUSTRATED Md@APlay Given Before Prisoners Outbreak - -| Is Threatened ACTOR HOLDS GUARDS| “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” Played in More Ways | Than Expected | i There is more than one way of play- | ing “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” on Al-| catraz Island. Prisoners of Camp 3, those who are considered dangerous, planned to get away from the guards on the evening of Washington's birth-| | day during a performance arranged by | “Jack” Stacey, who was formerly a| member af Richard Mansfield’s aggre- | gation of theatrical talent. { Stacey did so well that he held attention of the guards end the ficers and while the show .vas progress a break for liberty was at-| tempted by the No. 3 camp, the prison- | ers of which had been/allowed to leave | their cells to enjoy the entertainment. | The commander of the post gave| Stacey permission to bring 6ff the play. The soldier prisoner, who belonged to camp No. 1, where prisoners are held| for minor offenses, staged a production | that was a credit to his managerial | powers and his faculty' for adapting himself to Mansfield’s parts. The show | was a great success and the 300 or 400 prisoners attending and the- of- ficers of the fort pronounced it far| above the average. ! | Soon after the curtain rang down on the first act information was received by the officer of the day that camp 3's men had concocted a scheme to play the part of innocents during the ren- dering of the first act and then sud- denly slip away from the hall, attack the guards, seize a couple of boats at the landing and escape to the main- land. The applause had secarcely died out after the Stacey idea of Stevenson's character had been portrayed when there was a stir among the camp 3 men. In an instant the regular guard closed in at every point of vantage and bayonets and Krags took all the spirit of revolt out of the mutineers. .One by one the conspirators were weeded out of the audience and sent to their cells. | The play then went on without further Linterruption. Stacey is sald to be very clever and his impersonations of Mansfleld met with the approbation of those who wit- nessed the show. > The camp 3 men are still held in their cells 2s punishment far; conspiring to upset the dignity of Uncle Sam and to play a double role in-a United States military prison.

Brizzolara spent hundreds of dollars before his children were cured. “Still,” says Brizzolara, “it was bet- ter that mbral contamination, which doctors cannot cure.” J.
