Twill never vote for a single pay roll of the
board of school inspectors until the salaries
of the janitorS which have been cut down are
increased to their original figure. These
men have to work from in the morning I'M
til late at night and are responsible for valu-
able property, and l think that it is out
rageous 70 cut their salaries down to $50 and
$40 month. The reason / am making a
fight on this matter is that 1 desire a report
from the school inspectors for l honestly be-
lieve that the board has not done this unjust
act, but some one under them is responsible.

Such an enormous tract of territory would
be unwieldy The number of city officers

As I came down from Grand Forks to
Fargo the other day saw a sight that was
better than a circus. 1t was a 2, 50O-acre field
of the handsomest wheat that ever grew,
with eighteen self-binding reapers driving
along one after the other around it, The
shocks of grain were not more than ten feet
apart and almost as high as my head. That
country is a sight worth seeing now.

Probably the greatest resolve that Charles
Hoyt ever made was his determination to
break away from farce comedy writing and
enter higher plane of dramatic compost
ton. The result was "A Midnight Bell,
which will be produced at the Grand opera
house next Sunday night with the original
New York cast. The success of "A Midnight
Bell evinced the wisdom of Mr.. Hoyt's new
departure, which is an absolute divorce from
the broad farce comedy which has made this
clever playwright 50 popular. "A Midnight
Bell'' is said to differ from his previous
works because it is not bolsterous, and be
cause there are several characterizations
which, though exaggerated, are recognizable
and cleverly done. Some of the dialogue
is said to be unobtrucively excellent, and
Mr.. Hoyt has written SO many bright and
witty things. hence "A Midnight Bell is
something of revelation.

ODDS AND ENDS.

Angels always wear white. The older
novelists gowned their smooth ringleted
swan-necked and stoop-shouldered heroines
in white muslin with blue ribbons. White
frocks and delicate femininity have forever
been associated in the minds of men. White
has always been symbolical of innocence and
maidenly modesty, and the way the mod
ern girl wears it is just trile amusing. Not
that she is not modest or innocent. oh, dear
no, for she is; but her innocence is the in
nocence of pure heart, and her modesty the
expression of mind that sees no harm She
hasn't the prunes and prisms prudery of the
old-time white-muslined maiden, and wears
white in very different way. When she
lifts her dark walking skirt on the street she
doesn't reveal a shapeless white stocking or
ruffles of bedraggled lace; but when she
wedrs white. she wears it from the tip of her
undressed kid ties to the top of her picture
lat Shoes dress, hat and gloves are all of
the same snowy whiteness. 1t is a pretty
faShion-with limitations When Madge
trips down to the yacht, all in white flannel,
with white boots and gloves, she is a vision
of delight; but when the water in the bot
tom of the cockpit Stops over those same
snowy shoes, and the wash board rubs off on
those same immaculate gloves, Madge looks
ready for the washtuo. A pair of white
gloves may be worn once with boldness, a
second time with impunity, the third time
in fear and trembling, and the fourth time
in open disgrace. Madge is ready for the
wash tub, but, alas. she ism put into it, and
tomorrow she looks as no woman can and
be charming. The gloves one sees every day
the white wash leather gloves-are as far
removed from goodness as the East is from
the West If cleanliness be next to godli-
ness, half the wearers of white gloves are
living in frightful sin. The only beauty of
white is its absolute spollessness. and the
women who display themselves i'll public
places with gloves that look like the down.
trodden snow. ought to stand i'll the pillories
for one solid week.

Especial. Judge Burgess overruled

bond at $1,000. An appeal will be
taken to the supreme court.
The case will be heard by Division

October next. On everything the
motion. Judge Burgess considered the
affidavits at considerable length. The
charges of drunkenness on the part Of
one juror and prejudice on the par,
of others was carefully examined
and the conclusion Was
reached that the state had
offered sufficient evidence 10 rebuttal
to outweigh the testimony Of the de-
tense. The fact that one of the jurors
had bottle of whisky was discussed.
The liquor had not been used i'm.
properly but for medical purposes.

a fair trial and believed that he had
done 80. The defense had not offered
su fficieHt evidence to warrant the

SUICIDE COOPER COUNTY
A Prominent Farmer Myster-
iOusly Takes His Own
Life.

YESTERDAY Boonyil'e Item contains
the fcllowi:g account of the suicide of
one OF Cooper c unty's most highly
respected citizens:
Yesterday in The early afternoon,
the community was startled by the
announcement that John SchirhOlz, a
respected and wealthy farmer, living
about two and a halt miles south OF
this city, was dead, he having been
found in coal shaft near his resi-
deuce, with the arteries in both wrists
cut. All kinds of runners were atlDat
aud the exact facts hard to obtain I'M
til after The coroners investigation,
which proved the facts TO be that Mr..
Shirholz. who had been in a state of
melancholy for some days past, had
started about s O'clock a. m. TO the
field where his sons re at work.
He never arrived there, how
ever, having wandered away to the
land of Deighbor. upon which was
situated an abandoned coal shaft.
Just what happened there, no one
knows, but at the c)roner's inquest
the fact developed that he had severed
the arteries in both wrists with an old
pocket knife and had either jumped
or fell into the coal shaft. This shaft
is sixty feet deep and completely
filled with water, about three feet
from the top of which is cross beam
and upon this beam the lifeless body
was found.
Mr.. Schirhplz was about sixty year;
of and in his death Cooper county
loses one of her most prominent and
respected citizens.
