schools their usual term, and to make such Improvements as are absolutely necessary owing to the rapid growth ol this district. Committees were present from 'South Blsbee, Lowell and Don Luis and stated their needs, with an estl mate ofythe amount necessary for each district. J. W. Bose represented South Bis -bee, and stated that the district had at present seventj-flve pupils enroll with-one-teacher, which places mat jtersxin an unsatisfactory condition Bose said, it is necesnsry that another room.

be. added, and that another teaclierr be emploj ed. WZ Graves was spokesman for the Don Luis delegation. Ho stated that the school house was overcrowded and that two additional rooms were considered necessary to accommodate the number, of pupils. The school building there is at present rented.

Fred Hedjerg volunteered to donate a piece of ground 200x300 feet for the purpose of erecting a school building. Lowell's Interests were represent ed by Jesse Yoakum. Mr. Yoakum's statement was to the effect that the enrollment of the schools had in creased fully fifty per cent during the past ear, and that crowded conditions in each grade was thp result. The grading at Lowell at present reaches no higher than the and as the, further advanced pupils had to attend at Blsbee, it was deemed ad visable to add three more grades which would bring them up to the High School.

In view of the heavj increases in all districts it is thought necessary tc levy a special tax. This matter was thoroughly discussed, and It was decided to circulate a petition to this effect. Committees were appointed from each district to circulate this petl t'nn, and as everyone present expressed a desire to do all in their power to alleviate the present congested con tlUions, it is thought that the petl tioios win receive the proper numbei oisignhtures. JDne of. the features in the shortage of the school fund is the fact that the- board of supervisors cut down the levy last jear, thereby lessening the amount of the funds 20 per cent For the benefit of those not conversant with the school laws of the Ter ritory.

Article 119 is here quoted: Board of Supervisors of each county shall annually at the time ol lcying other taxes, levy a county school tax of not less than 50c not more than 90c on each $100 valuation of taxable propertj, which" tax shall be added to the county tax and col Iccted in the same manner, and be paid Into the County Treasurer as a special fund to be drawn upon as hereinafter provided. The Board of Supervisors made a levy of 40c, which amount proved in adequate In the Blsbee district. By this action of the board Doug las was forced to close her schools last ear before the term had endel and has now drawn $1500 more than the amount alloted them. Ten thousand dollars is the amount considered necessary to make the nee essary improvements and provide more school rooms in the Blsbee dis trict. It is estimated that a levy of 35c would net this amount, as about 15 per cent must be allowed for delinquents, and an additional 5 per cent for assessing and collecting.

After meeting with the city board the out of town delegates adjourned to hold a special session. This meet ing was presided over by Jesse Yoak um, and Mr. Bose acted as secretary Ways and means were devised foi presenting the matter before' the people, and petitions were drafted and committees appointed to circulate Hhese petitions.

FEARED SHE MIGHT NOT PULL THROUGH. Home Came Tumbling Down Upon Her While She Was Asleep With Husband and Child Got First Decent Meal Yesterday. Nervous from the terrible scenes ihrough which she passed, and overtaxing her -strength by recounting them to a friend, Mrs. John Sullivan, who arrived here in the morning from San Francisco, fainted yesterday afternoon and for half an hour It was feared that she would not recover consciousness.

Mrs. Sullivan, with her husband and little son, reached the city as refugees. She secured rooms at the Victor house, and about 2 o'clock fehe narrated some of the things she had witnessed. Leaving the front room in which she had been silting to go io Jier own apartments, Mrs. Sullivan faintgd.

For twenty minutes there was not een a sign of life, and those who were rendering the stricken woman assistance feared that she would not if cover. In half an hour she ctme to, but was unable to leavo her oed for the remainder of the day. 3o vhid was Mrs. SullUan's recollection of what she had seen tnat while she related some- cf the more striking incidents to her friend, she gicw pale and a pained expression gave way to the peace that came to It Then she reached Bisbee earlier in the day and found a place of rest Speaking before she fainted, Mr3. Sullivan said thai with her husband and little child she was in San Fiancisco on the morning of the earthquake.

The house in which they lied came tumbling down ocr their heads. That all three of tfism were not instantly Killed Is considered nothing short of miracuious. Before the de-ststating fire reachei their sh-ittered home the Sulllvans were able to recover some of their clothes and a few of their effects. There was no lime to search through the fallen house for articles of value, only such things being taken as could be readily reached and taken out in a short time. With these rescued goods in their hands they tramped across the city to the Oakland ferr'- Mrs.

Sullivan states that while everything possible was done by the relief committees, the first decent meal she ha3 had since the earthquake was yesterday morning when she reached "Blsbee. Though horn and raised in San Fiancisco, Mrs. Sullivan says that she never -wants to return to that city, so great was he'r distress following thA recent disaster. Mr. Sullivan has n-htainprl emDlovment in the mlnesi here, and ihe couple will make their future home in Blsbee.

Mrs. Sullivan's story of distress and despair in the stricken city is a fair sample of what thousands of other families have gone through since ths holocaust of April IS. It Is alleged that football makes boys lie. Psha- ict's be fajr, even to football. The other arguments against it are plenty strong enough.

Andersen Cull have been in tho building for the past four years. A few months ago they brancheu into the hardware business, taking the large store room, which adjoins the grocery department. Asked yesterday if they contemplated any changes, the new owners stated that they do not.
