cent ruling of the five district judgr*

filled.
Judge R. B. Minor said the jurors
could be used in cases where the
question of legality was not raised.
It was the duty of the jurors to re-
port. be said.
Two hundred jurors had born sum-
moned to report Monday but only
half of that number were present
when court convened. Of those who
appeared all but GO were excused.
No jurors will be summoned for
next week it was declared. The
••ourta will be without juries until the

LONDON CABARETS DRAB
ELLIN BERLIN’S VERDICT
LONDON Jan. 19—" These Lon-
don cabarets are rather dreary" was
the verdict of Mrs. Irving Berlin after
। visiting the famous night clubs of the
I west end.
Attired in simplest style and wear-
ing scarcely any gems the former
Ellen Mackay surprised curious Lon-
doners by the complete absence of
any suggestion of ostentatious smart-
ness. According to her friends. Mrs.
'Berlin believes that New York caba-
rets are infinitely more peppy than
those of Mayfair but she also con-
fesses that unattached flappers really
get the best kick out of the gay night I
life while a devoted bride dancing |
BOND MONEY ARRIVES
AT PROPITIOUS TIME
San Antonio's new bond moucy for
municipal improvements comes at a
very opportune time according to
Street Commissioner Paul E. Steffler.
Acceptance of the paving just com-
pleted. of Evergreen. Convent and
Seventh streets Monday means that
the last work to be carried on with
the funds derived from the previous
bond issue is finished.
Several hundred men would be with-
out jobs if San Antonio had uot ap-
proved the JI .000.000 issue for mu
nicipal improvements recently Mr.
Steffler explained.
The $250000. to be used for the
paving of new streets means another
*1.000.000 paving program for San
Antonio it is explained. When prop
erty owners add their two-thirds and
the traction company its share
the total will approximate nearly
$1000000.
Commissioner Steffler expects tc
make recommendation* for new paving
projects within the next week or ten
days.
BOYS PETITION TOBIN
TO IMPROVE CAMPUS
Three small boys all under 12
years of age. came to the city ball on
official business Monday evening.
They brought a petition from the
teachers and student body of the Mi-
lam School Mason and Austin streets
asking that their playgrounds be im-
proved.
"The school board is without
funds." the petition explained "and
we want the city to remove the rocks
and gravel and roll our playgrounds.**
Street Commissioner Paul E. Stuf-
fier promised the youths be will visit
their school within the next few days.
He probably will grant their request
he said.
