GIRL PUPIL DEFIANT
Otha Brooks Will Not Allow
Examination for Contagion.
FATHER CALLS IT "GRAFT"
Fifteen-Veur-Old Girl Is First to
Ucfuse Submission to Cursory
Scrutiny Customary and Will
lie Kxpclled Say directors.
Backed by ber father. Miss Otha
Brooks, aged 15, living at 122 Wiberg
Lane, has absolutely refused to allow
School Inspector Abele, of the City
Health Office staff, to examine her for
symptoms of contagion. In doing this,
she has forced the Board of Education
to consider her case with a view to com
pelling compliance with the rules or to
submit to expulsion from Holladay school,
where she attends.
Careful consideration was given her
case yesterday afternoon by the Board of
Education at its regular meeting, and it
was finally referred to the committee
on judiciary. She will be expelled from
school say the. -Board members, unless
she breaks her hitherto abmlute deter- I
ruination to withstand the regular exami- '
nation at the hands of Inspector Abele.
Miss Brooks has also the distinction
of being the first pupil oh record to re
fuse the permission for- examination,
which consists merely of a more or less
casual observation of throat, head and
hands, in an effort to establish whether
the pupil Is in normal condition or not.
The boys and girls receive careful atten
tion separately and there is - apparently
no good reason why this young woman
should object. The sole excuse given to
Principal Harrigan. of Holladay school,
is that her father "thinks this is a graft,
and he will not stand for it."
There was considerable discussion
among Directors Fleischner. Sabln.
'Beach, Campbell and . Sitton ' as to
whether the school rules cover such a
casa, but' it was generally conceded that
It is a reasonable exercise of power for
the protection of the public health and
that Miss Brooks will be expelled from
school ur less she submits to the exami
nation, is believed certain.
AVhile there is said to be no contagion
in the young woman's home and while
she is not known to be suffering from
any" form of illness, nevertheless the au
thorities declare they will not permit
her to defy the inspectors when every
other pupil in the city schools has sub
mitted to the examination. -
The Board of Education will probably
extend the scope, of the school of trades
and of the manual training department,
and the directors will hold a meeting soon
to discuss these plans. v
Wednesday, June 1, at 2 P. M. the
directors will meet to hold the annual
election of teachers. '"It will probably
require more than the afternoon's work
and the session will be continued at
night, if necessary.
Bids for the Woodlawn school addition
were opened and that of J. H. .Sprague
for $35,570 was found to be the lowest.
All were referred to the building com
mittee, with power to act.
POLICEMEN ARE SLEEPY
SERGEANT. FINDS TWO OF HIS
' MEN' SLUMBERING."
Officer Supposes " They . ' Are After
Desperate Criminals, biit Tliey
Are , Only ' Snoring.
Found asleep at 2 o'clock .yesterday
morning while on duty. 'Patrolmen
Rush Williams and J. J. Mackayflave
been suspended by Chief of Police Cox.
Shortly before 3 o'clock "yesterday
morning: Sergeant Parker sawthe two
policemen enter the baserhent." of the
house at East Twenty-first street and
Broadway. He presumed they were In
search of a crimina', and so he waited,
outside for 20 mintues before suspicions
entered his mind. Then he entered the
basement, where the snores of the
sleepers were to be heard on the still
night air. , .
Flashing his lantern. Sergeant Par
ker found that Williams was stretched
out on the floor, while Mackay was
comfortable in a rocking chair. Wak
ing them, Parker told the sheepish
duo to get back on their beats. A re
port was made to Captain Slover, who,
in his written statement to Chief Cox,
said: "I recommend dismissal, - a Pa
trolman Mackay has been -asleep be
fore and Williams is no good."
When the reliefs were changed yes-te-day
afternoon Chief Cox was present
and read a warning to all. officers re
garding the duties which they .' were
sworn to perform. While, he .compli
mented the, men on the good work
which . they have done, a : s "general
rule, he told them that they must profit
from the example of their erring brothers.
SMITH MAY BE GOVERNOR
Hood River Man Is Mentioned as
i Possible Candidate.
R. A. Booth, of Eugene, ex-State Sen
ator, and for many years active in State
Republican politics, has announced that
he will not allow his name to be used in
connection with tne nomination for Gov
ernor. Many of Mr. Booth's friends have
been urging him to make the race.
& L. Smith, of Hood River, who was a
candidate for United States Senator in
1906, is now being mentioned as a possible
candidate. Owing to the fact that the
assembly Idea originated in Portland and
because of a disposition on the part of
outside county leaders to believe that it
is to be operated in the interests .of Port
land candidates, there is a strong local
sentiment in favor of an out-of-town man
being indorsed by the State assembly
when )t meets July 21.
Officers of the state central committee,
however, are taking great care to keep
entirely out of such matters. "The only
object we have is making the assembly a
success," said an officer yesterday.
CHEHALIS MAS0NS BUSY
New Home Planned to Cost Close to
$60,000.
CHEHALIS, Wash., May 20. (Special.)
The Chehalis Masonic lodge has .
project launched that probably will result
in this city having a beautiful five-story
lodge and office building. It is proposed
to buy the Commercial block, located on
the corner of Market and Bolstfort streets,
a two-story structure 60x75 feet in size.
Three stories are to b added to the build
ing and the old part thoroughly remod
eled and rearranged.
The estimated cost of the proposition
when carried out is 160,000. Chehalis is
the center in Southwest Washington for
saveral of the higher branches of Ma
sonry. The success of the project now
depends on the sale of $30,000 worth of . 6
per cent bonds.
At this time there are under construc
tion, or projected, with contracts let,
public and store buildings of one sort,
and another in Chehalis aggregating
$280,000, not including this latest project.
Celebration Not Popular.
JACKSONVILLE, Or., May 20. (Spe
cial.) At a recent meeting of the Com
mercial Club it was decided that Jack
sonville should celebrate the Fourth of
July. This decision does not meet with
popular appproval, and while no one
seems to advocate a "sane Fourth," the
business men who are soliciting find that
the people prefer' to spend the money in
municipal Improvements.
