HANSEN VIII GO.
Health officer KiLvington Accom-
panies Him to New York.


Enough money has been raised to pay
the expense of sending Jacob Hansen
to Europe for treatment by the Pasteur
method of innoculation, but the amount
is not enough to send an attendant
with him. Health Officer KilVington
will therefore accompany Hansen to
New York, and will endeavOr to get the
surgeon of some steamship to take
charge of him on the voyage. The
doctor is considerably put out by the
statement of the Tribune that he in
tended to accompany Hansen to Paris.
and would be gone six weeks. His en-
deavor will be simply to see that the
probable victim of hydrOph0bia gets to
Paris, but. unless he finds it necessary
to row the man across the Atlantic. he
will not accompany him. The two will
leave for New York Saturday night,
probably.

Friends of James Purvis Bruce. for
merly police reporter on morning
paper in Minneapolis, were somewhat
startled the other morning to read that
a young man named Bruce. supposed to
be the Bruce above mentioned, had
been killed by fall from
glacier in Alaska, where he was
doing syndicate" correspondence work
for some Eastern papers. As James
Purvis is of rowing disposition and
has seen some strange corners of the
earth before, it was easy enough to be-
lieve that it was he. A former chum OF
his here telegraphed to a Mas
sachusetts bicycle firm, where Bruce
is employed to know If he
was still alive. The reply was a char
acteristic document signed Jamei Pur-
ris Bruce and asserting that "Jack"Was
not only alive but kicking and likely to
leave in few weeks for business trip
to the Queens little island.

In making comparison with raising
wheat in Dakota there are some things
in our favor that naturally reduce the
cost. and as the acreage is increased the
expense is materially lessened. In the
June number the average expense of
raising an acre of wheat on the bonanza
farms of Trail county, in the Red river
valley, was given as s., and on many of
these farms a very accurate account of
all expenditures is kept. The quarter
or half-section farmer, however, cannot
raise it at so low rate. The following

NV S[rttG Journey, otherwise
a person could ride as far as he
wanted to on an east and west
line, and then ask for a transfer
check on some north and south line
which he might retain and use some
other day, thus getting two rides for
five cents. Fortunately all the street
car lines. with the exception of the
Lyndale and Franklin lines, intersect
at the corner Of Washington and Hen
nepin avenues, and these IWO lines have
their terminus within half a block

perhaps, to station a man at the corner
who will give out the checks and see
they are proparly used.

A Christmas Festival

The Christmas festival of the First
Presbyterian Sabbath school took place
last night. The principal features of the
exercise was the rendering of several
Christmas anthems by chorus choir of
about thirty voices, made up mostly of
the young people of the congregation.
This choir had been for some time under
the skillful training OF Mrs. Maggie Stiles,
assisted by Miss Alletta Rankin.
Mrs. Stiles presided at the piano, Miss
Jessie Rankin at the first organ, Mrs. j.
M. Breckenridge at the second organ, Miss
Mary Downie at the metOlliphone, Mr..
Alex Gardiner, clarinet, aud Mr.. j. Miller,
correct.
The music was unusually sweet, and was
listened to with enthusiasm by large
congregation.
Religious exercise and recitations made
up the remainder of the programme, af-
ter which the classes brought in their lit
tie barrels OF money contributed for for
eign missions. This was followed by a
general distribution of candies, nuts,
oranges, etc.
This Sabbath school is under charge of
Mr.. VIM. A. Blackburn, superintendent,
and Mr.. j. Walter Graham assistant su-
perintendent, AMI Is ons of the largest and
most hourishing schools of the city.

supplied on the rrst Gsy the term with
all the necessary means OF study. This
prevents the long delays that were for
merly experienced in organizing the
classes and enables the teacher to make a
better classification of his school. EK-
perience has proved that the expense OF
books and supplies, by the new method
OF purchase, is reduced to nearly one-half.
"Second-Ths new system furnishes a
good occasion for training the children
to take good care OF books not their own
but which they are allowed to use.
"Third-It haE, without doubt, increased
the attendance upon the schools more
than 10 per cent.
"Fourth-The public schools of the
state are now literally free schools, offer
ing to all, on the same free terms, the sd-
vantsges of good education.
"The labor of purchasing and distribut-
ing the books, and arranging plans for q
proper care of them, will be much less af'

teen towns in the commonwealth had vol

At that hour Mr. Gwynn and his attor
ney, Mr.. Frank q. Morris, were on hand
as were several witnesses and a goodly
number of spectators.
Mr.Arohie Corwin testified that Towns
end was at his store under the Bruins
wick on West Sixth street assisting
in selling goods up to some
time after III o'clock. He left
about II O'Clock, and at that time he was
sober. He had not been drinking.

Doctor Litten was placed on the stand

when Townsend, who was slightly intoxi-
Gated asked all to go and take drink
They agreed and started down to Billie g.
Charles, but when opposite the Evans
building some one suggested that the sa-
loon was closed. Townsend then said,
"Let's go to the Driskill," and the whole
party turned and proceeded up the. Avenue.
They went across TO the Crystal Corner
and were proceeding down Sixth street in
IL direction of the Drisklll when Townsend
proposed to go into Charlie Cortissoz's.
The others objected and Townsend and
Gwynn had some words, when Townsend
said
"Gwynn, you've been drunk several
times at my expense"
Gwynn denied 1t.
Townsend again repeated the remark,
when Gwynn said: "You are id liar"
MIR. HARRISON and the others smoOthed
over matters, and all but Townsend started
off towards the Driskill.
When opposite the English Kitchen
they heard some one following them, and,
turning, cav Townsend. He approached
Gwynn, and at the same time threw his
hand back on his hip as IL to draw pis-
toll.
Gwynn observed him, and said, "You
are armed; I'm not, but don't you ap-
proach me-"
Townsend, with his hand on his hip,
continued to approach, wher Gwynn,
pointing his finger at him, warned him TO
desist. he refused and Gwynn hastily
drew knife and struck him. Townsend
then turned and went up the street in the
direction of the Avenue, Gwynn remark
ing: al had to strike him in self-defense."
Here the case rested and was continued
until next Monday.

FREQ Text Rocks.

In his able and interesting report Super-
intendent Cooper makes the following
reference to free text books in the public
sohools;
The free text book system would not be
generally practicable in Texas outside OF
the larger towns aud cities, on account of
the want of suitable provisions for the
care and preservation of the books. The
arguments in favor OF this system for the
cities, larger towns and districts which
possess good school houses and levy local
taxes, are unanswerable. They are ad-
mirably summarized in the report of Hon.
J. W. Dickinson, secretary OF the board
of education Of the state of Massachusetts,,
for the year lSs4-5. Secretary Dickinson
