PROVE IT TO OFFICER OR SEPARATE Board Puzzled but Says the Rule Segregating Sexes Will Be Enforced _ If there is any genius running around loose wno can solve the fourth dimension and do other little mental stunts like that he can get a job by ap plying to C. T. Herbert, secretary of the park commission. If no such relief presents itsoll Herbert wiH have to work out his own salvation and that of the park cemmission by fixing up a resolution that will provide for a. dis play of marriage certificates and fam ily bibles at Central park. Herbert's tat>k came about through the introduction yesterday morning of a resolution prepared by Commission er Silent, which provides for leaving every other bench in Central park tor women and children and alternate benches lor men only, in other words, Segregating the sexes in Central park. Other commissioners objected that If this rule were enforced a man who visited the park with his wife and children would have to sit on one bench while his family occupied another. Then it was suggested that wives and children be permitted to sit on the men's benches with husbands and fathers, but an objection wab raised that married couples would have to tarry their marriage certificates and flash them on the park policemen and as many persons frame those inter esting documents and hang them on the walls at home, this would be a serious difficulty. And even if they did carry their mar rlage certificates around the rule would still deprive a man from sitting with his sister or his mother. Then one of | the commissioners wanted it restricted to relatives only. That brought out the objection that relationship could not be readily proven to the park po licemen unless the man carried the family bible under his arm and traced the geneaology of himself and his sis ter. Judge Silent was puzzled and po were the other commissioners. Mr. Silent said that what he was aiming at was i to prevent a condition that existed in | the park prior to its recent upheaval when it was a place where dlsrepu table women congregated. The commission finally concluded to let Secretary Herbert work out the problem as he has solved many com plex situations in the past, and in structed him to draw up a resolution j that would fit the case and !"■ accept able to the commissioners. Sueh a ia the pleasant little task the secretary i of the park commission has before him. | TURNSTILE AT ZOO GATE TO COUNT THE VISITORS The park commission Is curlou to know how many per.sons visit the East lake i-;• ilc :soo in the course of ;> month, and to determine this question ac ely will put in a counting turn stile at the gate. Policemen have been station".! at the zoo gate on Sunday afternoons and counted tli" people as th"y passed. lii count lias shown that from 40001 i,i i;i persons visit the zoo <m Sun-. days, but the commission wants a ; hly showing.

Francis, superintendent of schools, submitted to the board of ed ucation last night a detailed report of the enrollment statistics In the public -schools of the city in response to the request of members of the board at Its last meeting and In the report recom mended that the educational body take immediate steps to provide bond Issues for the building of four new Inter mediate schools at an average cost, in cluding equipment, of $260 000 each. The majority of the board, however, have expressed themselves as not fa voring bonding the city for more schools at this time. The board desired the report on file in order that it muy keep itself fully informed as to the alleged overcrowd ing of the public schools. The recommendation of the super intendent, however, that the last day of May in every year be set aside for a musical festival to be made up of talent taken from the schools was ac cepted. Superintendent Francis' plans are for the renting of the largest auditor ium in the city in which the festival will take place and the charging of an admission fee to bear the expenses of the festival. The board of education also adopted a recommendation made by Mr. Fran cis that three or four years of actual training in teaching schools in cities of Los Angeles' standing be accepted in lieu of the regular high school and normal school course heretofore re quired by those seeking positions as teachers In the public schools here. Mr. Francis In his report to the board further recommended that the ordinance prohibiting the sale of tick ets for entertainments given by the schools be done away with and that the schools be allowed ns a whole two paid entertainments during each year. This was also adopted. That part of the ordinance prohibiting the sale of tickets for entertainments given out side of the schools will still be in force. The board ordered $15,500 paid to A. J. Norton for a deed to additional ground for the Utah street school. This action practically closes the deal in which the board of education has sought to purchase additional land for the Utah street school grounds. VIOLATES POSTAL REGULATIONS E. P. Murphy was fined $100 yester day in the United States district court on a charge of violation of the postal laws. * EPICURES CHARGE PALATED GOURMAND STOLE THEIR DUCKS Twelve canvasback ducks that fell victims to the marksmanship of H. H. Yonkin, former councilman, E. R. Werdln, Eugene Koch and Heine Koch when the four were gunning In the vicinity of Elizabeth lake recently, have landed Homer Ball, an aqueduct employe, in'tho county jail, charged with petty lar ceny, showing that Yonkln has not forgot all he learned in eight years as under sheriff in "sleuthing." A complaint was filed in Justice Stephons' ,court yesterday charging tin- nqueduct employe w4th stealing ducks. Yonkin, after the "chase," hung his trophies on the hotel porch and went inside to rest. There were thirty clucks^ in all, twelve of them canvasbacks. The thief, whoever he was, stole the canvasbacks and left the rest. Yonkin, determined not to lose his game, spent two days in the vicinity of the hotel on the trail of the lost ducks. He claims to have evidence to the effect that Hall is the guilty person and the, charge will be pressed ir. the justice court, even if the ducks have "flown." WOMAN USE RAZOR? NO; HATPIN IS HER WEAPON Mrs. Elmer Thought She Only Scratched Friend Bertha Th<; question of whether a hatpin, however long and pointed, is capable of inflicting a gash three-eighths of an inch deep unct four inches long proved, a perplexing one in Police Judge Frederiekson's court yesterday morning. Mrs. Carrie Elmer, living in East First street, appeared before Judge Frederickson on a charge of battery. It was alleged that in a fight Sunday night Mrs. Elmer gashed the face sf her friend, whom she called Bertha, with a bluck-handled razor. Mrs. El mer denied using the razor and in s'*tod that shy inflicted the gash with her hatpin. "And more than that," said Mrs. Elmer, "I thought I had just scratched Bertha. Why, judge, I wouldn't know what a razor looks like, it's been so long since I saw one." Mrs. Elmer will appear this after noon for sentence.
