Owen L. Smith, of Freeport, To-, read
an interesting paper upon the preveu-
ton of electrolysis of water mains serv-
ice pipes. The remedy was, he thought,
to compel electric railway companies to
adopt the double trolley system. by the
insulation Of mains, by insulation of the
rails, or by the adoption of welded rail
joints. This last suggestion he consid-
cred the best.

that reservoir should be from ITO to

Deestrick skool Must Co Will
Ask the Legislature for
Change.

At the county educational congress,
in session at the state university. yes
terday Prof. Kiehle delivered an ad-
dress to the county superintendent, IN
whose honor the day had been set apart.
His remarks introduced the subject OF
the day. the relation of the county
schools and the high schools. A. nj.
Sperry, of Dodge county, thought 1t an
imposSibiIity for the county school
pupils to pass examinations for adnis-
sion to state high schools.
Supt. Pendergast defended high
school supervision as the most feasible
and necessary for high and uniform
standard throughput the state. He
thought there should be an eXtensionof
the school term from five TO seven
months aud the adoption OF the town.
ship system in the place Of the district
system.
j. e. Van Dyke. of Wabasha, was in
favor of state high school supervision.
but considered the state board eXami-
nations too rigid, and tending to dis
courage teachers as well as scholars.
He believed in the summer schools, and
thought they should be doomed more.
The afternoon discussion WAS devoted
to considering legislation necessary for
school Improvement. Prot. Kiehle
wanted the school term heightened to
seven months. He believed the district
or neighborhood school to be hind
rance and approved of the township
system. He suggested two methods for
securing the desired legislation.
One was campaign of educa-
ton to be conducted by the
county superintendeuts, and the
other way was to resort to the political
methods of the legislative lobby. He
introduced resolution, which was
the reorganization of the county schools
upon the township system, and to secure
legislation to that end. The details OF
the plan are to be left to committee of
seven to report at the meeting of the
state teachers association to be held in
January. Supt. Pendergast and MI.
EngStrom were elected members OF the
committee, and the other five are to be
appointed by the chair.
The question of raising the standar d
of scholarship among country school
teachers was next discussed. Inspector
Aiten thought the present plan OF al
lowing state board certificates III gram
mar school work to indicate Qualitica-
ton to teach grammar school studies as
being wrong.
Mr.. Engstrom advocated so regulat-
iug the state appOrtionment as to give
more financial encouragement to schools
having longer terms and employing
first grade teachers at higher salaries.
A resolution was passed in favor of
making vocal music instruction COM
pulsOry i'll the common schools.
Today's session of the congress will
be devoted to normal school educators.

Indexinethe Tariff Bill.

W AsHINGToM, Aug. %. = Prepare
lions for carrying into effect the new
tariff bill are going forward at the
treasury department with all possible
speed. Secretary Carlisle has already
prepared blank form of license for
custom house brokers, provided for in
the bill, and it is now in the hands of
the printer. Several clerks are hard at
work preparing all index for the new
bill. This will occupy about twenty
pages in the new tariff volume, which.
for the convenience of customs officials.
will contain both the new law and the
Mckinley act of 1890. 1t is expected
that by the time the new bill becomes a
law, all preliminary work, save that of
issuing instructions to customs and in
ternal revenue officials, will have been
done.

Wanted the Tea.

Two men giving the names of Flynn
and Davis were locked up in the South
side police station yesterday afternoon
on a charge of horse stealing, which
will probably be changed to highway
robbery when the case comes before the
grand jury. The real name of one Of
the men is said to be Harrington, and it
is also said that one Of them is now out
on $500 bail waiting for the next sitting
of the grand jury to answer TO charge
of burglary.
Yesterday afternoon the two men
attempted to drive off horse and de-
livery wagon belonging to the North
western Tea company and driven by G.
j. Swensen, first holding Swensen up
with revolver. Two citizens. j. II.
Buddas and E. d. Turner, saw the act
and chased the two men in the wagon,
who were in the wagon. finally captUr-
ing them and turning them over to the
police. The wagon was loaded with a
quantity of tea.

Republicans Object to Corrections

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-Betore tele-
graphing for absentees today the DEM
ocratic leaders made an especial appeal
to the Republicans to permit the bill to
correct the error with reference to al
cohol in the arts to go through without
objection In the absence of a quorum.
1t appears, however, that when Senator
Chandler went away he left behind him
request that the bill should not be
taken up in his absence, and the Re
publican senators are guarding this re-
quest. The Democratic senators now
threaten to retaliate by taking up the
supplemental tariff bills and trying to
pass them in case they succeed in get
ting quorum, but they realize that
there are many difficulties in the way
of putting such programmed into effect,
and did not at the meeting today decide
upon any plan beyond eXerting them
selves to the utmost to secure the at
tendance of q uOrum.

Postmaster Holbrooke Is busy with
the details of important changes In the
mail service of Minneapolis. tits prob
able that the carriers limits of the Min
neapolis postoffice will be extended on
the North side and to the south
end of the city. Tt is sug-
gested that the extreme northern
portion of the city be given a carriers
delivery three times week, one every
other day, and this will include the
more closely settled portions of the city.
In addition, North Washington avenue
merchants will probably have q better
carrier service.
The South side limits will probably be
extended toward Lake Harriet and
Washburn home, so as to take In the
thlckly settled portions of the Eighth
and Thirteenth wards, but Just how far
has not been decided yet.
AS regards the sub-postoffices it Is
said there is not likely to be any
changes in either the Eighth ward or
Southeast Minneapolis. The East side
office, it is said. will be removed to the
drug store of II. r. Loughlin.
The fight for the South side sub
stations is still being waged as fiercelv
as ever, and no decision has been
reached definitely. Both candidates.
Pool and Mas, are still using every
argument to further their. respective

dressing an identic note to all mari
time powers inviting them to adhere to
the agreement reached by the United

protection of seal fisheries. This was

Paris arbitration which found that the
United States had no exclusive juris-
diction over the seal waters and that
these could be protected only 10y

treaty submitting her case to arbitra-

nations. ana vessels sailing under the
flags of Germany, France. Russia.
Sweden or even Hawaii were left by
the award free to prey upon the seals

Hawaii Will agree to the arrangement.

A CHEAP TIN-HORN
Who Tried His Hand at Woman
Beating

People who are familiar with the de-
tails of the assault upon Miss Oracle
Reese by W. j. Vanancken, for which
he was fined in the police court, say
that the accounts in the papers of the
affair rather showed him up in too
favorable light.
1t seems that he is one OF the numer-
Gus tin-horn sports who seem to thrive
under the sunlight of the present po-
lice administration, and has been perse-
cutting Miss Reese aud trying to force
her to live with him. When she ordered
him from her house at 1874 Ninth street
north he laid in wait for her at Miller's
restaurant, on Fifth street. and created
scene there. Then he followed her to
her home and committed the assault for
which he was fined.
The use of Edith Gray's name In con.
nection with the affair at the restaurant
is said to have been entirely unwar-
ranted.
