I . Explains JPoslt-oa. . t Principal C 1 Strong of tha Sell wood school, speaking of the action taken by th principal, said last night: "Wa have found that all thla parading and extra work detracts from the stan dard of serious work which has been sel for us to follow. The children are compelled to work hard enough as it la i without; having several extra hours week of unnecessary work to do. The parents a a rule are opposed to their children marching. It would mean that we would have to go out personally and urge the children to march. It Is a responsibility that I for one don't ap prove of and don't consider a part of my duties as a teacher in the public schools. My ideal ia to secure aa high efficiency from my pupils as possible, I don't believe that parading the streets tn the hot aun la going to work towards that efficiency.- . M 1 Th other principals agreed with Wofesaor -Strong that the parade would . be an undesirable thing for the schools. " . Q.u-rs Hack Work. - 'The Festival people are too apt to think only what a pretty spectacle the children will make during their hours I tnarch.

It is like a. roan f oing to the theatre who aees the per onnanoe and thinks or tne actor work 1 Ing three hours.

TRY Mill FOR DU PUIS MURDER .--v k I j I 'D ' Pendleton People to Be Sum- I moned to Testify Against V v Defendant. Attorneys forJJadding and TYayniire Claim They Have New Evidence. Alleging that they have dlacovered new evidence in the form of statements said to have been made by Mayor Lane regarding the charges on which K. K. Raddlrig and Mra. Belle Waymlre were convicted last week, the attorneys for the defendants tomorrow will file a motion for a hew trial The. defendants' attorneys also claim that an error was made in receiving the verdict of the jury when neither Mra Waymlre nor Radding- nor any of their Attorneys' were present. They evident ly believe they have a good point in tnis objection, which win be btrongly urged aa a reason why a new trial should be granted. Side Statements. Just what statements the mayor Is alleged to liavu muut. mat -vie regarded aa giving bmia mi a new trial are not dlscioseu. it is iaid. however, tnat these statements are euftlclenl to carry weight, and they win be set forth In affidavits to accompany the motion for a new trial. Attorney Seneca, fcouts last night said that the into'rmatlon re gardlng what the mayor has said reached them too late to use in the re cent trial. Mr. Kouts yesterday secured from Judge Gantenbein a typewritten state-. ment setting forth In detail the facts connected with the returning of the ver dict. This statement Bays that after the jury retired on the afternoon of Feb ruary 25 the court ' notified Fouta to have the' defendants in court when the jury came in with lis verdict At 6 o'clock, the statement proceeds, the ver. diet waa received and read in the pres ence of the court stenographer and other officers of the court, but In the absence 'of both of the defendants and of their attorneys. Judge Qaotenbeln directs that this statement be made a part of the record. - Fat tn Kaocrd. The object In eecurins thla statement from th judge waa to have the facta made of record, to be made the basis of the motion for another trial. Th. de fendants were convicted of a misde meanor, and it is admitted that in case of mladeineanora. tuu trial may proceed without the Dresettce of the defendants. But It la pointed out that In the case or tne state against spores in tne fourth Oregon, the supreme court held that th proceedings were regular In the bsene'of the defendant "If he appear by counsel." Conversely, it la claimed. If the law- rers , for th defendant ar not present he Verdict cannot be received, because the courts have held that -the reception of a verdict la a part of the trial and that the defendant baa an unimpeach able right to demand a poll of the jury. It the attorneys for the defendant are absent, It is contended, this right Is taken away, they having no opportunity to poll the Jury. Argument of th motion for new trial may or mar not be held during the coming week, owing to th preparation to be made by the attorneys and the time at the disposal of the -court' Mean time Radding remain in Jail, unable to furnish the $1,080 bond that1 he pro fessed, he could so easily supply.

TU.-- TJ a 1 wtrtn CAfl Market street; la cfiivalescent (WMblnctoatBunia of Th Journal.) Washington. Feb. 29. Mayor C. A. Johns of Baker City was joined today by Attorney Charles Murphy of that town In his effort to push throunH the bill creating a new federal Judicial dis trict of eastern Oregon, the court to sit kt Baker City, Representative EUls Bays Pendleton Is still urging .that the court should sit there, on the ground that more federal business originates in that part of the state, but tnere is no delegation here from Pendleton. There seemed little likelihood that any bill would pass up to th time of Johns' and Murphy's ar rival, but it is now thought that being on the ground, they may succeed in pushing the bill through. BELL INDORSED BY Detectives -Make Spectacular Invasion of Chinese Quar ters When Games and Lot teries Are Shut Down for Reception of Officers. Pursuant to "arrangements" an nounced by th police Thursday after noon. Acting Detectives Kay and Bmlth raided the Chinese gambling dene at 82 H Second atreet yesterday afternoon. Of course, no one was arrested, for the vry 'good reason that no game was In progress at the time the raid waa made, nor had there been any gambling there since 9 o'clock the night before. H is charitable to suppose that the offi cers were not aware of this, although the fact was patent to everyone with whom the affairs of th Chinese quar ter ar at all familiar. Wide Open. Following the publication In The Journal Thursday afternoon of the faot that the lid had been-lifted tn China town and that lottery and gambling games were being conducted openly on -of them within a few score feet Of the police station, orders were Issued by someone for a cessation of operations by all of the boss gamblers who are credited with being subscribers to th Jirotectlon fund. As a consequence the Ighta were turned out in all of the lot tery and fantan resorts at t o'clock Thursday evening. The games did not reopen yesterday morning and at the time Kay and Smltlattracted a crowd of Idlers by their Rpaotacular descent on the premises in Second street yester day afternoon a majority of the boas gamblers of the quarter were In the miaqi or a council ot war men Deing held in the back office of th store of Bing Gee, 14 Second street. . While the result of the "raid" amounted to nothing more than a dem onstration or tne completeness of tne "arrangements," the same cannot be said of the consultation of boss gam blers. "Ways and means" was th topic Of discussion, and It is probable the ses sion was none the leas interesting be cause, it was held behind Closed doors. The result of th conference Is not known definitely and it is by no means certain that a definite line of action was determined and agreed upon. All of the gambling resorts remained dark last night, though the word was passed around that some of the lottery games would resume drawings today. Some time ago the Chinese gamblers announced that they were willing to pay the sum of 1 1.800 a month for im munity from prosecution. The negotia tions fell through an account of the publicity given the scheme, but In spite of this their willingness to pay for th privilege of being permitted to violate the gambling lawa has never been called Into question. That they are paying a certain stipulated sum for such protec tion as can be given them under exist ing conditions Is an open secret In Chinatown.
