PREPARING FOR SCHOOL.

Teachers and Principals Mect-Some Alb
aent Teachers-Sew School Houses.
As preliminary to the work OF the school
year, which begins today, the teachers met
their respective principals yesterday afternoon.
The principal object of the gatherings was to
give the principals and teachers an opportunity
to get acquainted. The latter were also in
structed as to the particular rules of their
buildings and the general plans OF school work
were outlined.
A few of the teachers are still absent. tele-
gram was received from Miss Anna I. Goodreil,
at Brigham, Utah, yesterday, in which she said
that she would be delayed in reaching home I'M
til Wednesday Miss Blake. of Latona, will be
away several weeks yet aud her place will be
filled by Mrs. Carter Miss Margaret Lynch, Of
the Mercer, cannot be present at the opening of
the school and her school will be taken for the
time by Miss Anna Coffin. Miss Flora E.
Austin will supply the place of Miss Minta
Foster of the Fremont school, as the latter has
leave of absence for two months. Miss Easily
of the 7. I. Minor school, is sick and Miss &.
Thompson will act as her substitute.
The work on the school in the Eastern addi-
ton 10 progressing satisfactorily and will be
completed at least one month before contract
time. The grading OF the grounds surrounding
the South school is nearly done and all i'm
provements have been fully completed.
Secretary Whitney yesterday notified the po-
lice that some vandals had been defacing the
bulkheads around the Central school building,
aud any person caught in the act will be pun
ished to the full extent of the law. Similar
ofenses have been committed at the Latona
school.
The attendance at the opening of the schools
is not likely to be large. but it usually in
creases fully 80 per pent. during the first two
months. and the increase is likely to be greater
this year. rs hundreds OF children are away in
the hO, fields

HILL WILL HAVE HIS HANDS FULL.
Other Roads Prepared to Take Up tho
Challenge He Gave.

An official OF the Northern Pacific railroad 10
quoted by the st. Pau! Pioneer Press as saying in
regard TO the Great Fortherns withdrawal from
the Transcontinentai Association:
II Mr.. Hill wants to create a disturbance in
rates IN tho West and il eager TO pit himself
against the trauscontinentai lines he will find
his hands full. IL the Canadian Pacific aud
Atchison should enter the lists with the Great
Northern there will be considerable fur flying
around this region before twelvemonth has
passed, and unless | am very much mistaken the
Great Northern will not be in it, OF course the
other transcontinental roads could make IL hot
for Mr. Hilrs system too, but they are not likely
10 resort 70 extremes rapidly as the Atchison
aud Canadian Pacific 1t seems to me that the
withdrawal OF the Great Northern IL to be re-
garded as a challenge and that it means a deter
mination on the part OF that road to SEQ what It
can do. OF course the competing roads will fol-
low any reduction that the Great Northern may
make, and II viii be simply question which
road can hold out longest.
The Pioneer Press further says:
At the Milwaukee Offices it was learned that
the action of the Great Northern was looked
upon M pOrtending serious trouble If fight
takes place the Northern Pacific will marshal
Its forces and see the contest through. The ca
madam Pacific, 1t Is Also thought, will take a
hand IN the rate decentralization, anu this will
naturally drag the 500 in and one or two OF the
Chicago lines. Before this can be done, how
ever 1t will DO necessary for the Soo's western
extension to be completed, aud tits probable
that operations at this end will be pushed for
ward still more vigorously. As q competitor

the government backing which II enjoys il 10 in
better position to tr anspOrt freight for nothing
than any other transcontinentai road The

day in Chicago. The magnitude of to-day's cell
ebration was largely due to bridging over the
feuds which have divided the conservative ele-
ments from those inclined to sociaistic ideas
The banks were all closed, and the beautiful
weather contributed to the success of the cele-
bration. After the parade speeches were deliv-
cred by Congressman Durborow aud McGann,
exCongressmen Finerty and Mason and others.
NEW YORK, Sept 5.-Iabor day was generally
observed in this city today. Everybody recog-
nized it and the national political head quar-

rades in this city and Brooklyn were witnessed
by thousands.
KANSAS CITY, Sept. 5.-IAbor day was cele-
brated in this city today BY parade OF 10000
men.
OTTAWA, ILL.,, Sept. 5.-Twenty-fve hundred
men and four bands of music participated in
the Labor day celebration here. Much COM
ment was occasioued by the refusal OF the trades
unions to march under the triumphai arch
which was OH the line of march. This arch was
first erected for the fremen's tournament last
week, and the labor men today refused to march
under it, because they say part OF the labor in
its erection was non.union.
PITTsBURG, Sept. 5-Labor day was not gener-
ally observed here. There were no street
parades, and but for the fact that the govern
ment offices and banks were closed there would
have been nothing to indicate holiday. At
Homestead everything was quiet most OF the
strike leaders having gone to other places to
take part in labor meetings.
PORTLAND. Sept 5.-Firemans day was OBJ
served here today by the Veteran Firemen's As

chief feature. Labor day was observed tonight

Gus Heege the Swedish dialect actor and the
author OF "Yon Yonson" is a German. Nobody
who hears his inmitable broken Scandinavian
would ever suspect that, however. Heege is the
originator of this peculiar tongue ON the stege.
He has some imitators, as. indeed, has every
author and actor who has succeeded in making
a hit, but Heege is the only man who has been
able to thoroughly master the Swedish brogue.
He has the additional advantage of naturally
looking the Swedc, qualification of nature and
not to be acquired. Having passed a consider
able apprenticeship in the lumber regions and
among the people whose lives his play, "Yon
fonson," depicts, he combines with his skill
and nsturalness the thorough comprehension OF
what the character requires. 1t is not surpris-
ing, therefore, that "Yon Yonson" has been
meeting with great success in its career across
the continent. The character is new to Ameri-
eau audiences and is not less pleasing on that
account Mr.. Heege and his company will be
seen at the Seattle opera house on Wednesday
evening, September =, aud that night only.

Proposed Celebration by tho School

Proposed Celebration by tho School
Children and Citizens.
Prominent educators all over the land have
recently ex pressed the opinion that the public
school should lead in the public observance OF
columbus Day." which President Harrison by
proclamation has fixed as October e. In this
document the president said.
Columbus stood in his age as the pioneer of
progress and enlightenment The system OF uni
versai education IL in our age the most promt-
lightenment and It is peculiarly appropriate
that the schools be made by she people the CEN
ter Of the days demonstration. Let the ma
tionai flag hoat over every schooihouse IN the
country and the exercises lie such az shall i'm
press upon our youth the patriotic duties of
American citizenship.
Superintendent Barnard has entered fully into
the spirit of this movement aud is already busily
engaged in mapping out plans for making this
one OF the memorable events Ia the educational
history OF this city. His aim is to have the
children gather that day in the schools. not for
general recitation. but TO hear and take part in
a programme embracing something like the fol-
lowing:
Raising and saluting the fag, under detail
of members of the Grand Army of the Republic.
Tho song OF Columbus day. to be composed
by some local writer and TO BE- sung in chorus
By the children
A patriotic address, to be delivered by the best
speaker in the school among the boys.
An appropriate ode, to he read or recited BY
the brightest girl in the school.
america" which should be the closing song
in every public school in the entire land.
superintendent Barnard suggests that there
should be a celebration by the civic authorities
In the afternoon, at which also the children will
form prominent feature. His idea is TO have
the state and city officials to review the process
sion OF school children ut Pioneer place, and
then that they all march up to the University
campus. where the public exercises should be
given. In addition to the other numbers on the
programme, Superintendent Barnard suggests q
chorus made up of 1000 children from the vari-
Gus schools of the city. The musical training
OF the pupils In the schools has now arrived at
that stage that such chorus could be made to
do exceedingly effective work. There IL no
doubt OF the cordial cooperation OF the public.
and steps will be taken at once to arrange for
the celebration.
