In School District No. 3, town of
jamestown, Grant county, recent
meeting for the election of officers
broke up in sort of wordy wrangle,
the Catholics, of whom a great many
were present, insisting that they
would no longer tolerate a public
school in the district. Then spec
ial meeting was called, and resulted
in a complete victory for the Ger
mans and Catholics. County Super
intendent Guernsey has taken the
case in hand, and the result is
awaited with great interest and
anxiety.

performed in this city to large and

regular duties crowded it out of our
mind. On Saturday evening last
we were privileged to see this COM

drama "The Sea Of Ice," at Platte

it. Melissa Breslau, in two leading
