Superintendent Ament Argues for More
Assistance Before the Board.
Superintendent Ament argued on
the necessity Of an additional teach
er in the High school again before
the board of education at its regular
meeting last evening. The superin-
tendent contends that the present
corps is not equal to the duties
which are gradually enumerating in
view OF the increasing attendance.
The question was submitted to a
vote after quite discussion and re-
suited in contrary decision by vote
of 2 to 8.
The board also authorized the pur-
chase of supplementary course of
readers, embodying literature, science
and history, to be distributed among
the scholars from the first to the
ninth grades. This is desirable in
novation and will undoubtedly re-
suit in much toward educating the
children on useful questions.

Two Horse Thteve8 Per1sh IN q Burning
House in Preference to Being Lynched.
ENTERPRISE, I. T., March 11.-A
tragedy was enacted ten miles east Of
this place. Two men stole band of
thirty horses in Choctaw nation last
Thursday from a stockman named
Coulter, who organized a posse and
gave pursuit. A running fight ensued.
One of the posse was mortally wound-
ed. The robbers took refuge in a
house, where they barricaded them
selves and refused to surrender,
saying they preferred being shot
in their tracks. After repeated efforts
to induce them to come out, some of
the posse set fire to the house. The
building was old and burned like tin
der. Even when the roof began to give
way the two men refused to give them
selves up. Suddenly the roof caved in,
the burning rafters falling on the i'm
prisoned men and pinned them in. Be-
fore they could be extricated from the
mass they were cremated.

excitement For two hours after the houses
met Monday morning senators and

nificant proposition to go through by unani-
nous consent. For the first time in years
Capt Bassett was denied the proud privilege
