Shep herd nnd C. C. Faimnn, proprietor of a school of bacteriology, with having caused the death of William Nelson McClintouk by typhoid fever are con fidently expected this afternoon, said liobcrt K. Crowe, state's attorney upon reaching his office after an all night investigation of the case. Faiman will probably sign an im munity waiver and testify before the grand jury this afternoon said Mr. Crowe. Shamrock Dear to Irish . Many a Legend is Told Tiny Plant Teaches King JX THK heart of every Irishman the film m rock holds a tender spot. Dear it is to the children of Erin and in return it always blooms for them on every bill, valley and in every field on St. 1 'at rick's uioruine. Laeghaire, without apparent euccenn, St. Patrick beheld at his feet the little shamrock plant. ' - Stooping down he picked a spray I and carried it to the king, showing There ore many tales and legends him tlie three Ioa on n 8em. told concerning this little plant of yet "U a part of it. And the story CHICAGO, March 17. -W) Ty phoid fevpr germs which killed AVil liant Nelson McClintock "millionaire orphan," were given William Parting I Shepherd, foscter-fntiier and chief heir, upon his promise to pay $100,- 000 after settlement of the estate, C. C. Kaiman head nf a school bacter iology, told 1 toner t K. Crowe, state's attorney, today. The nmount was decided upon, Fai mnn said, after he first hnd demand ed a quarter of a million dollars, re- the prickly flower ing blackthorn. j It is told that when St. Patrick came to Ireland, to preach the gos pel. King I..aeg hairc ruled at Tara. He was a stubborn adversary of the doctrines of Christianity. Laeghaire refused to believe in the mystery of the trinity. Although he had been brought to a point where he believed the doctrines nt least partly, the mystery of the triuity, was an obstacle. St. Patrick, it is told, tried often to explain the mystery to the king, but could make no progress, the pag an king obstinately refusing to be lieve the doctrine of three in one. One day while preaching before goes that King Laeghaire immediate ly embraced Christianity. Many other legends are recalled on St. Patrick's day when the little shamrock is the greenest. There i a story that once St. Patrick was caught In a blizzard and hurrying to shelter, found himself beneath a blackthorn bush. ' - No Booner had he gotteu under the bush than tho Bnow melted and a multitude of beautiful blossoms cov ered the bush. Now despite incle ment weather the blackthorn blooms on St. Patrick's morn, being one of the few bushes whose blooms pre cede the coming of its leaves. The blackthorn grows all over Ire land, but is especially fond of Tip perary Boil. Perhaps the blackthorn or shtllalah is often called "the Tipperary rifle'' for this reason.

Increasing demand for labor in nearly all industries of the state, and no added curtailment of fir logging or lumbering operations have mater ially reduced the number of unem ployed men in west coast centers, it was reported at the meeting of heads of employment offitvs at the office of C.

CounHcl for the state again advised tho contention advanced yesterday that the police powers of the state were ripially as potent in; matter of education as those of morals and health, and insisted that private aud parochial schools could bu conducted under the new law in teaching chil dren before or after they bad com pleted the graded public schools. High efficiency of the public schools qf the ntute was asserted, aud the court was told that it should respect the decis ion of the people at the polls in adopting the new law. Counsel for tho society of the H's tern of the Holy Names of .Jesus and Mary aud of the Hill Military acad emy luinrd their arguments largely upon the ground that the new Ian would ! confiscatory and would de prive thone who are conducting pri vate and parochial schools as well as parents within the state, nf Ihc lib erties and rights guaranteed' by the eonstliuiiun.
