RULERS HONOR TEACHERS
King and Queen of England Give
Garden Party for London Masters.
LONDON. Aug. IS. (Special.) The
garden" party given a few weeks ago
by the King and Queen to the head
teachers of London is an historical
event of considerable Importance. From
the times of Ethelbert and Alfred the
Great, who was himself a, Winchester
man before the reign of William of
Wykeham. many English sovereigns
have shown a lively rare for the prog
ress of education. . To Henry VI Eng
land owes Eton; to Elirabeth. West
minster, and Sherborne. Shrewsbury,
Christ's Hospital and Bedfore grammar
school are only a few of the survivals
of Edward Vi s foundations In the six
teenth century.
Henry VIII, James I and Queen Anne
all had a hand in work of the same
kind, and in later days Queen Victoria,
Vino. Vtt-ur.l anJ rhn ntsti ICfnff
have given many proofs of their keen
interest in the welfare of the public
schools. But on a recent Saturday
King George and Queen Mary went a
step further. In a strikingly pic
turesque and original way they showed
the high honor in which they hold the
whole of the teaching profession, and
not only one part of it.
Many of the world's greatest men
have been teachers. But Socrates is
not the only one among them who has
known what it is to be despised and
rejected of men. Indignity Is, or was,
the common lot of the brotherhood.
Such expressions as "pedagogue" and
"usher" were once invariably, used as
terms of reproach and even contempt.
Fortunately that contempt, chiefly
born of misunderstanding and preju
dice. Is fast dying out. The timely and
graceful act of the King and Queen
should have a powerful effect in cor
recting the national estimate of the
worth of the teachers. The fact that
the recognition given to them by the
sovereign took a social rather than an
official or professional form is of the
highest consequence.

MARTIJi SOT BLAMED BY -JCKT
FOR DEATH OF FUGITIVE.
Evidence Regarding Fatal Shooting
Conflicting Man Dies With
out Making Statement.
Lee Martin, the patrolman who shot
and fatally wounded William Walters,
or Waltrous, who tried to escape after
his arrest cn August 13, was exon
erated last night by a Coroner's Jury.
Zf
BLACKSMITH AJiD HIS PORTABLE
Gardner's smithy contains a forg,
anvil, necessary supply of shoes, rubber
pads, and other material for fixing the
feet of horses. On arriving at their
destination the smith and his assistant
unload the forge and get busy as if they
were In a regular horseshoeing place.
There axe 163 horses at work for tho
city's street-cleaning department. 110
for the fire department, 25 for the po
lice department and a number of oth
The verdict was that Martin fired the
shot "In the proper discharge of hts
duties" and that "the jury holds the
said officer blameless for causing the
death of said deceased."
The Jury consisted of J. M. Wright,
Henry Haas. Arthur E. King, M. C
McCord. J. J. Flaherty and George W.
Tabler. The chief contention of those
representing Martin was that the bullet
which killed Walters ricochetted and
was not fired with intent to hit. Other
evidence was introduced tending to
show that the bullec did not ricochet.
It was said that In Its eight inches
of progress through Walters' body the
pullet traveled upward nearly four
Inches, tending to show that it must
have come from a position on the side
walk or street behind the victim. Other
statements were to the fact that a
ricochetted bullet "tumbles" In the air,
tearing an Irregular hole wherever it
strikes, while the wound In Walters'
body was clean cut.
Testimony was offered that Walters'
record for robbing drunken men was
bad. Martin and Patrolman Ed Man
ring had Walters under arrest at TBIrd
and Ankeny streets on a "tip" that ha
was concerned in thefts, when Walters
broke away. Martin drew an auto
matic revolver and fired after him.
Walters died four days later in St.
Vincent's Hospital, after refusing to
make any statement.
4-CENT FARES UP TODAY
DALY SIX-FOR-A-QCAKTER OR
DIXAXCE IS SCHEDULED.
City Commissioners Xot Expected to
Take Definite Action Until More
Information Is Obtained.
At this morning's session of the
Council at 10 o'clock several matters of
Interest will come up, the most impor
tant of which will be Commissioner
Daly's measure to compel the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company to
sell six streetcar tickets for a quarter.
In view of the statements by .Presi
dent Griffith of the company before the
Mayor and Commissioners Monday
afternoon, it-is regarded as unlikely
that the Commission will take any de
cided action today, as the Commission
ers have said they wish to gain more
information from other sources. Presi
dent Lepper, of the East Side Business
Men's Club, promises a batch of new
facts and figures to dispute some of
Griffth's assertions as to expenses, etc.
Revocation of the grocery saloon
license of S. Brunn, 233 Vi Alder street,
will be asked by Mayor Albee and the
Commissioners already have agreed to
his recommendation. The blueprint
plans and specifications of the proposed
public auditorium, as presented by Ar
chitect Freelander, will be inspected,
and there is a mass of minor business
awaiting the Commissioners.
A request from the Home Telephone
Company is to be considered. The com
pany wants permission to allow the
Oregon Annunciator Company to at
tach its Instruments and equipment to
the lines of the telephone concern. The
request probably will be granted.
Two claims will be presented by the
streetcar company. One Is for Install
ing expansion joints on Hawthorne
bridge and the other is for doing sim
ilar work on Morrison-street bridge.
MISS BOWERMAN HONORED
Ex-Governor's Sister 'Will Go to
Pasadena for . Tear.
Miss Martha Bowerman, a primary
t-acher of the Portland schools and
sister of ex-Governor Bowerman, has
been selected by Superintendent Alder
man as the teacher to exchange with a
teacher from Pasadena, Cal., for a year.
Each city will pay its own teacher
while in the other city.
The Idea of exchanging was origi
nated by Mr. Alderman, his plan being
to give the privilege to teachers who
have shown especial merit. He hopes
to enlarge the scheme so as to ex
change with many other cities. In this
way he believes Portland teachers wl1
secure a broadening which will work
out to the benefit of the Portland
schools, .

JAIL BOARD RATES RAISED
Fight for More Pay lor Federal
Prisoners Is Won.
Fifty cents a day will' henceforth be
the price of board for Federal prisoners
at the Multnomah County Jail. An an
nouncement to this effect, received yes
terday by United States Marshal Mob
tag from George E. Dowsey, Controller
of the Treasury, raises the allowance
received by Multnomah County Sheriffs
from 37 cents a day, and settles a
question that was first raised three
years ago by Robert Stevens, Sheriff at
that time.
At that time the Treasury Depart
ment ruled that no more than 37 H
cents a day could be paid for Federal
prisoners in Oregon, basing the ruling
on the state law.
Both Mr. Stevens and Sheriff Word
refused to receive that figure, and Con
troller Dowsey's ruling means they will
receive 60 cents a day for every Fed
eral prisoner that they have kept in
the Jail.
Mr. Stevens' bill up to the time he
quit the office January 6, 1913, Is 17454.
Since that time Sheriff Word's bill
against the Government amounts to
more than 12000.
Under the new ruling the Government
must pay 12 cents a day more than
the state for feeding prisoners, al
though the same kind of meals are
served to all.

Tomorrow tbe Dallas party will leave.
Other plr.ceg are hurrying In their in
vitations so that a large number of.
children will be accommodated before
school begins.
A good result of the trips, aside from
the health-giving virtue, is the fact that
the children who come from poorly
managed households, have learned to
be systematic, frugal and clean. An
instance is cited of a girl who was in
the Silverton party as the guest of a
farmer's wife, who was a model house,
keeper. The girl's mother "goes out
washing'' while the child had been in
the habit of playing in the streets.
Now the girl lias the house tidy and
clean and the table set when her tired
mother returns from a day over the
washtubs. Just this little thing, the
committee says, will work wonders in
that household. Tbe members of the
Junior League will continue to take an
interest In the families they have be
friended. FIREMEN TO GIVE CONCERT
