SCHOOL LANDS.


The Result of Auditor 1VllitcO1nb'S Spring
Land Sale.
State Auditor Whitco1nb returned yester-
day from an attendance at State land sales
in Rock, Mobiles, Cottonwood, Redwood,
Renville and Lyon counties, which respec-
lively occurred upon may Z, s, 8, ID, IA, and
16. The extent and importance of these
sales become evident when it is known that
the total quantity of land disposed of
amounted to $1,000 acres, distributed in
counties as follows: Rock, 9,4O0 acres;
Mobiles, $500 acres; Cottonwood, 5000 acres;
Redwood, $1,000 acres; Renyille, 41,O0O
acres, and Lyon, 5000. Mr.. Whitcomb
stated to GLOBE reporter that the prices
realized exceeded $6 per acre, and that,
consequently, the sum realized by the sales
would be in the neighborhood of half a
million dollars. He could not give the ex
act amount, as the returns were not all
received. There had never been such en-
thusiastic bidding at State land sales, the
prices realized we're, therefore, higher than
had been anticipated. This was the result
of the unprecedented desire for the posses
sion of land, which SO prevailed in and per-
meated through the frontiers of the State
that no one could possibly conceive its all
absorbing influence who had not actually
visited those sections. He characterized the
result of the sales as satisfactory and i'm
mense."
Mr.. Whitcomb leaves tomorrow for Moor
head, Clay county, where the last sale of the
present series occurs on Tuesday. Other
sales of State lands will follow in the autumn

board for the purpose Of engaging in cleo
tioneering for q man who resigned his posi-
ton on this board to save himself from be:
ing indicted. It is shameful perfect out
rage, bringing his clenched fist with force
upon the table.)
DR.. Hagan said he did not love Mr.. DON
nelly. but he loved Mr.. Thomson less. He
had acted as he did to get Mr.. Thomson out
of the board, and he did SO because that
gentleman had always been a clog, and OPP
posed every movement of the board in inn
proving and maintaining hig h school. He,
DR.. Hagan, wanted high school because he
was interested. He had property in the city,
and a high school would augment the value
of that property. He, DIR. Hagan, was de-
termined to do his best for high school.
Mr.. Thomson was against it, and Mr.. Don
nelly was for high school. He, therefore,
wanted to get rid Of Mr.. Thomson and elect
Mr.. Donnelly.
Mr. Thomson move that committee
of three be appointed by the chair to investi-
gate the matter. I think that the board
should take action to prevent SO disgraceful
spectacle as teachers of public schools 60
ing about stutfing ballot boxes as saw them
doing, rolling several tickets up together fol
that purpose.
DR.. Murphy-Did you see school teacher
do this?
Mr.. Thomson-Yes, did. saw him roll
several tickets up and was going to deposit
them but prevented him.
Mr.. Merriam--But the Judges of election
would deposit the vote.
Mr.. Thompson-It was at a Democratic
primary.
The motion for the committee was carried
with an amendment by Mr. Whitney that
FIVE be substituted for three.
Mr.. Thomson declining to act, the presi
dent appointed Albert Scheffer (chairman)
r. 0. Sweeney, c. D. Kerr, W. r. Merriam
and e. J.. A. Whitney.
Bills to the amount Of $3,758.30, princi.
pal]y for interest, were passed and the boarc
adjourned.

RAILRO1lD 1DT-INCE1IENT.
A Step Forward BY the st. Paul s. Siou
City Road.

A Step Forward BY the st. Paul s. Sioux
City Road.
There is no line of railroad out of ST. Paul
better managed than the St. Paul & Sioux
City. This is more particularly shown by
the unusually attentive and courteous de-
meanor of all the employees from the brake
man to the conductor. Good management
shows itself, too, in the excellent condition of
the road and rolling stock. Every invention
when proved to be an advantage either for
comfort or safety, is adopted at once by the
managers of the line, hence the finest sleep
ing cars, the Miller platform and the West
inghouse automatic brakes are found on all
through trains. But one thing more is
needed to constitute first class line of
travel that is speed, and in This respect the
Sioux City line has achieved
a. triumph indeed. A train
which. according to tho new time schedule,
leaves St. Paul at 2:45 P. NJ, arrives at Kan
sas City at $50 P. NJ. the following day,
makes the trip in 81 hours and five min
utes. Returning, it leaves Kansas City at
1870 A. NJ, and arrives at St. Paul at lao
p. NJ. the next day-27 hours and 10 min
utes-thus outstripping in speed all other
lines in the Northwest. This safe and speedy
route is composed of the St. Paul and Sioux
City, Sioux City and Pacific and Kansas. St.
Joseph and Council Bluffs, and is the short
est by several hours of all lines between this
city and Omaha, Kansas City, Denver and
Texas.
An Engine Off the Track
As the through eastern bound freight
train was leaving the yards of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul RAILROAD about J
o'clock yesterday morning, the engine was
thrown from the track near the eastern end
of the trestle work which leads to the lower
elevator. It appears the train was proceed
ing at very slow rate, merely crawling
along, in fact, as is the usual practice i'll go
ing through railroad yard repeatedly inter
sected with switches, and with innumerable
side tracks crowded with cars. just as the
engine had neared within ten feet of a
switch which was in correct position for pas
! sage, the swithman rushed from his cabin,
| and, for some unexplained and inexplicable
reason, threw the switch over. The
locomotive, of course left the track, ploughed
it's way over the ties distance of about forty
feet, getting deeper and deeper in the sandy
sides of the embankment, and finally keeled
over on its right side, being caught by the
| trestle work named above. and thereby being
prevented from rolling bodily into the river.
The engineer reversed his engine and jumped
off. but the fireman was cast under the trestle
work. Neither man was injured, escaping
most miraculously, thanks to the slow speed
at the time. The locomotive was tolerably
| well buried in the sand, and the cab was ex-
tensively denoraized. One box car also
left the track, but was restored thereto along
with the tender with little difficulty. The
early morning trains were slightly delayed
and three days work will put the engine IL
working order.

here during the spring and sum-

The Sialia MeXicana-Western
Blue Bird. beautiful bird is
not as common here as it is' near
the Rio Grande, but large flocks
are seen in November and Decem-
Der along the Colorado.
Cotyle Serrepennis Rough
Winged SWallow-Is abundant in
February. Its flight resembles
that of the common barn swallow,
{Hirundo rufa0 this species shows
q curious instance of The manner
in which birds accommodate
themselves to the localities in
which they sojourn. The river
banks possess, in few spots only,
the conditions requisite for their
notification, being insufiiCiently
steep TO afford them Opportuni-
ties of sinking their holes, or
being composed of a hard, rocky
earth, into which they are un-
able to penetrate; hence they seek
out the holes and crevices in the
adobe dwelling-houses in the
towns, there to build their nests
and raise their young.
The Collyrio Excubitoroides-
or White-Rumped Shrike-Is
found on the Colorado, though
rarely seen save perched upon the
summit Of some small bush or
weed, watching eagerly for it's
prey.
The Minus Polyglottus-Mock-
ing Bird.-This wonderful song
ster is found all across the conti-
nent, from Florida, through
Texas, to the Pacific Coast, in the
vicinity of the streams, and at
evening and early dawn MARBLES
forth its initiative and fantastic
songs. It is fond of the fruit Of
the prickly pear, and Of other
cacti, and, if examined during
the season when they are ripe,
its throat will be found tiuged a
deep carmine from them.
The Aegialitis Vociferus-or
KilIdeer-Is abundant through
out this region, and its we'll
known cry is often heard, late at
night, as it flies over ones camp,
or runs along the shore Of some
pool or stream. It is found where
ever there is permanent water.
Harporhynchus CurvirOstris-
Curved-bill Mocking Bird
Found along the Colorado and the
Gila, still it is more abundant in
the neighborhood of Tucson.
Like the California, and other
mocking birds, it possesses musI-
cal powers surpassed byfeW other
birds. When alarmed it dives
into the underbrusb, whence it is
almost impossible to dislodge it.
Its food consists of fruits and ber-
rieS when in season, or of insects
and their larvae and worms. 1t
spends most of its time On the
ground.
Calmospiza Bicolor - Prairie
Lark Finch. - Quite common
throughout Southern Arizona and
Texas; 1T is met in large flocks,
and associates with the cow-bird
and black bird, especially in the
vicinity of the Pima villages.
The male bird is often seen rising
in the air with a tremulous, fut-
tering motion of the wings, very
much after the manner Of the
eastern reed bird, singing the
while, and until again alighting,
a disconnected but not unmusical
chant. The nest, placed on the
ground, is formed of fine grasses,
lined with hair, and contains four
to five pale blue eggs.
