The meeting was presided over by the president, Ted Selins. The meeting was opened with the singing of the Blue and Gold, led by the leaders, Misses Margaret Briscoe and Agnes Harkness. The president called on Miss Gerita Griggs, secretary of the self-government committee, to read the rules and regulations as outlined by the committee. A copy of the rules was put on the bulletin board. Principal Clayes gave an announcement about the new work that was being done in the front hall. With the exception of the testimony of Dr. Arthur Beardslee, one of Miss Rappe's attending physicians, following the alleged attack by Arbuckle, which was supposed to have caused her death, technical evidence will be off the boards and a menu of thrilling tales of Arbuckle's Labor Day party and similar events was expected. It became known the defense had caused Al Semnacher, Miss Rappe manager, who gave sensational testimony Saturday, to remain in San Francisco and expected to have him resume the witness stand. It was not certain, however, whether he would be called today. Mrs. Bambina Maude Delmont, "avenger" of Miss Rappe and Secretary Pyvron, and Alice Blake, show girls, were to be called to the witness stand in succession to hurl whatever charges they have to make against the rotund come-dlan.

It is not likely, however, that councilmen will give City Manager Steward the go-ahead order until they get together again at the adjourned meeting Oct. 10, or at the regular meeting Oct. 13. It is estimated the old building contains 330,000 bricks, joists and some of the other lumber is as good as new. The council plans to have all material that can be salvaged cleaned, nails drawn in the case of lumbers and adornments.

Hill, an aero mechanic, who has spent the past seven months in the north as an employee of the Imperial Oil Co.

It is not likely, however, that councilmen will give City Manager Steward the go-ahead order until they get together again at the adjourned meeting Oct. 10, or at the regular meeting Oct. 13. It is estimated the old building contains 330,000 bricks, joists and some of the other lumber is as good as new. The council plans to have all material that can be salvaged cleaned, nails drawn in the case of lumber, and piled up so that contractors may take it into consideration when submitting their estimates of cost for construction of the new edifice. Cris McNell, Santa Ana contractor, has submitted a bid of $3000 for pulling own the building and cleaning the brick. It is believed it can be done for much less, the council apparently favoring the employment of a competent director for such work and the cleaning of the brick by day labor. Council has the offer of a "boss" for the job at $8.50 per day. Rough labor can be obtained for $3.50 or thereabouts. It is believed the brick can be cleaned for somewhere between $3.50 up to $5 per thousand. New brick cost $19. Council will open bids for the bonds Oct. 13. It is the plan as soon as the bonds are sold to have Architects M. Eugene Durfee, of Anaheim, and Theodore Kisler, of San Diego, proceed with the plans and bids called for.

The men have not yet been captured. "HANK OF HAIR" IS HEAVILY INSURED LOS ANGELES, Sept. 26. — "A rag, a bone and a hank of hair." — RUDYARD KIPLING.

A movement was underway among Anaheim businessmen today to request city council to redraft a city ordinance which now forbids the piping of gas for lighting purposes, as a result of electricity again being off on the southside of Center-st Saturday evening for an extensive period in the midst of the busiest shopping period of the week.
