The board of county nigh school trus-
tees met yesterday and organized by
e:ecting C. j. Humphrey Of this CITY as
secretly and j. K. Donafue Of Portland
treasurer They also se.ected teachers
for the county high school. Professor L
w. Butcher, who has been principal OF
he Wellington high school, was elected
as principal of the high school. Prof E.
Kelly and Miss Maud Price, both of the
Wellington high school, were selected IS
teachers for the county high schools.
Prof H F. NJ. Bear, superintendent OF
the city schools, has heretofore been
teaching two classes in the city high
school, and the board Of trustees decided
10 offer him employment in the county
high school as a teacher of these same
two classes.
Joseph E. Dull was appointed postmas-
ter a. Belle PLANE yesterday. This ends
a very spirited contest which was partic-
Clarly remarkable for the mixture in The
endorsements Of the Republican patrons
CT the office. The probabilities are that
all the defeated aspirants will accept
the result pnilosophicaly and with good
grace. Mr.. Dull is a capable man, an
earnest Republican, and an old sol
der. Il is to; be hoped that he will make
an efficient and popular postmaster.
Dr. E @. Farris is down from Conway
Springs today. He reports that j. W.
Twynan, who lives thirteen miles north
west Of this city had four stacks of wheat
containing ABOUT 600 bushels, and one OF
pals, containing about 105 bushels, burn
ed yesterday. Mr.. Twynan thinks that
some small boys set fire TO the stacks
while paying with some matches. 1t was
with great difficulty that the fire was
prevented from destroying the entire
crop on Mr. Twynan's farm.

over the Brooklyn navy yard under the
order OF the secretary of the navy.
a cipper-built man of 30 or thereabout
enlisted in one of the troops of the Fourth
cavalry at the Preside OF San Francisco
a few years ago. When he was asked by
the recruiting officer If he knew anything
about horses he replied, mot very much. ]"
The day after his enlistment the troop
drill sergeant gave the recruit horse and
took him out to the bull ring TO give
him his first whirl at riding horseback.
The recruit labored into. the saddle with
great apparent difficulty. and for fifteen
minutes his awkwardneSs taxed the re-
sources OF the drill sergeants vocabulary.
Then, with grin, he sprang to the
ground, quickly uuCinChed the horse, and
threw off the saddle. Starting his sad
dlelcsS horse around the ring on a dead
canter, he leaped upon its back without
the use of his hands and standing with
his boots upon the horses glossy back
he rode around the ring for a few times.
Then the horse stiil at a swift lone, he
stood on his head on it's back. He followed
this up with a monkey drill that almost
gave the drill sergeant apopleXy. When
a few days later, the recruit got first
sergeant's stripes. 1t came out that he
was one of the best known circus riders
in the country, and one Of the most I'M
reliable, on account of his prediction for
liquor. He kept straight in the army
however, and at the close of his enlist
ment started a riding school in San Fran
cisco, which he is still managing with
immense success,
