1t is interesting TO know that Europe
haa taken hold in earnest on state ir-
surance plans that statesmen in all
the chief countries OF western Europe
are concerning themselves with the
matter, and that valuable results al
ready have been attained. In the
light of Europe's experience it should
be easy for the United States in COM
ing years to act wisely in regard to
the insurance OF aged and sick work
ingmen against want.

Got Tangled in the Harness.

Yesterday afternoon as the crowds
were gathering at the wharf at the foot
Of Twelfth street, preparing to go on an
excursion, they were treated to singu-
lar accident. a team belonging to
Henry Shalcross was being driven in
the water a short distance from the
wharf by young son of Mr.. Shallcross.
When in the vicinity OF the wharf
boat the horse became frightened at
something and in attempting to
turn, got in over its depth. While en-
deavoring to swim, the animal in some
way became entangled in the harness,
and before the horse could be rescued
it sank lifeess in the river. The boy in
the meantime had jumped off the wagon
and swan ashore. The remains OF the
horse, together with the wagon, rapidly
foated down the river, and about seven
o'clock last evening was stopped by
some men at Twenty-fourth street,
where the wagon and harness were cut
loose and taken ashore, and the animal
allowed to continue down stream.

POLICE COURT.
The Robrecht Cases Dismissed on Hear
ing of the Evidence.

There were nine cases in Police Court,
Yesterday morning, six of them being
dismissed. Con. Desmond and Chas.
Gavin, for fighting, got s. and costs,
and Rod Dixon, for drunkenness, went
TO the hill. The cases against John
Robrecht, Sr., John Robrecht, Jr., and
Henry and Frank Robrecht and Max
Tannenbaum, arrested by Officer Mo-
ran, on the charges of abusing an
officer and interfering with an officer in
the discharge of his duty, were
all dismissed, it being shown
by the evidence that Officer Moran had
inaugurated the trouble by passing
John Robrecht, Sr., while the latter
was engaged in conversation with a
gentleman and then coming back and
asking Mr.. Robrecht if he was "hot
vet" referring to the arrest tor Sunday
selling, and from that remark the row
resulted. George Simpson, charged
with keeping a vicious dog, was dis
missed, there being no city ordinance
bearing on the matter.

PRIZE PUPILS.
PUBLIC SCHOOL SCHOLARS WHO CARRY OFF
THE HON0RS,
And Who Will be Awarded Parts in the Coming
Graduation - The Winners IN the
Various Schools.

There has been a good natured rival
ry going on among the students in the
various public schools for sometime as
to who should be in the front rank Of
studies, and with this goal in mind, it
has served as healthy stimulus to their
endeavors. There are forty-seven
graduates this year, thirty-eight of
whom are girls and the rest boys.
For the small number of boys they
seem to have shown up remarkably
well, as three and of the nine have at
tanned sufficient rank in their studies to
receive honorary parts, against only
one boy last year. The two members
in each senior class having the highest
averages will take part in the gradua-
ton. There will be no Peabody medal
this year, but it is thought the School
Board will recognize the prize pupils
in some fitting manner.
Webster school, whose graduating
class has an average of 93.44, has the
honor of turning out the highest rank
pupil in the city, Clinton McChesney,
who has attained the remarkable record
of 9S.5. BY reason Of his lead Of all the
pupils he will be given the part of the
vaedictory at the graduation. Mr..
McChesney also receives another honor,
hitherto unmentioned, and that is the
Adrian College Scholarship and Roll Of
Honor from Adrian College of Michigan,
the scholarship having an intrinsic
value of some $50, and emitting the
scholar to attend that college.
The second highest rank scholar in
the city halls from Clay school, where
the honor is easily accorded to Miss
Mamie l.. Brown, who attained an aver
age of go. Miss Brown will be the
salutatorian OF the occasion. The sec
ond honor in the Clay school fell to Miss
Antoinette Reymann, whose average
was 5000. The graduating class aver
age Of Clay is S5.76.
The second honor at Webster schoo.
fell to Percy r. Calihan, with an aver
age of 95S.
The class average at Richie school is
S2.1, the first honor falling to Miss
Laura j. Meyer, with 900 to her credit,
and Miss Ada Campbell second, who at
tanned SAT-.
The class average of Center School is
1886, the first honor falling to Miss
Julia Daum, and the second to Miss
Minnie Lohse, with an average Of S7.55.
In Union School the class average is
49, l, and while Miss Prudence B. Hig-
gins, obtained the highest rank of S7.4,
she was deposed to third place on ac-
count of having lost one examination,
the first honor going to Miss Kate
wells and the second to Miss Pearl Rose,
with an average OF 1916.
or the fourteen graduates of Madison
School, j. C. Anderson carries off the
first honor, with an average Of 93.9.
Miss Laura M. Burt comes next and
close upon the heels of Mr.. Anderson,
with an average of 1916. The third
honor was awarded to Miss Bertha M.
Uthman, who attained an average OF
