SCHOOL ROWS UNENDING.
Stearns County Has Another COntrO-
Versy to Settle.

ST. CLOUD, Mimi, March 1S.-
Stearns county seems to have more
trouble than a policeman regarding her
educational plants throughout the dis
tricts, and the sensational Avon school
war had scarcely subsidized when an
ether situation, demanding the atten-
ton of State superintendent Fender
CAST and County Superintendent L. ].

directors of kimball school district are
In decided quandary over the fact
that they are confronted with two sets
of teachers for the school there Last
summer, the retiring board hired three
teachers, gentleman named Robinson,
as principal, and Misses Celia and
Blanche Kimball as assistants 1t is
claimed that these teachers were en-
ployed by two of the directors, without
the knowledge of the clerk; that the
directors failed to give the proper
notice of the meeting for the election
or teachers, and that under these cir
cumstances the election of the teachers
was illegal Upon these grounds the
new board set about to hire a new ser
of teachers. which they found little
dlfhculty in securing. Daniel Spaulding
was elected principal, and Misses Built
want and Dixon assistants
When school opened, both sets of
teachers appeared, each claiming that
they had been legally elected, and in
tended to teach. Mr.. Robinson did not
care to enter into the trouble. and
withdrew from the fight County Su-
perintendent Rocho1l was called upon
for ruling in the case, and decided
that the new board alone, had au-
thority to engage teachers, and when
State Superintendent Pendergast was
asked for an opinion, he sustained the
county superintendent. This decision
was not satisfactory to the old board.
and compromise was therefore pro-
posed, being that one teacher selected
by the old and one by the new board
should be retired. This was
declined by the old board, AMI

Reed Decides to Hurry Along the
Tariff Bill.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.--gIea ker
Reed has definitely decided that. for
the present at least, he will not appoint
any of the regular committees of the
house beyond the three already an
nounced. In this way all miscellane-
Gus legislation will be blocked and the
entire attention of the house focused
on the tariff bill The bills which are
being introduced by the hundreds will
have to wait until the committees to
which they would go under the natural
order of things are appointed. 1t is
not even likely that the appropriation
committee will be appointed AS soon
as the tariff bill is sent to the senate
the three appropriation bills as they
were sent to the president, and the de-
hciency as far as was agreed to in con-
ference, will be put through under spe-
cial orders, which the rules committee
will bring in for that purpose BY
avoiding complications which might
arise If the legislative mill should be
thrown open to an indscriminate grind
the house leaders believe they can ma
terially expedite financial legislation in
the senate by rendering delay in the
upper branch Of congress on tariff all
the more conspicuous by the inaction
of the house.

plan seems to be the building of dam

water from the dam back into the

raise the water sufficiently to cover

or the committee expressed themselves
as opposed to proposition which had
been made by some of the representa-
tives looking to the segregation of the
wooden schedule from the tariff bill,
as whole, for the purpose Of giving
this schedule earlier attention than the
general bill could receive. The opinion
was advanced that an independent bill
providing a duty on woods and a new
wool schedule would provoke almost
as much debate as the tariff bill itself,
and that nothing would be gained by
the separation of this schedule from
the others.

Shooting of Andrew Wolfert Re-

Special TO the Globe. .sr
VALLEY CITY, N. D:sMarch 1S.-The
death of Andrew Wolfert, who was
shot last Sunday night, remains as
yet mystery. MIR. Wolfert died Tues
day morning about $50. and Coroner
Devoux impanelled a jury and has
been working on the case ever since.
To the last Wolfert denied that he shot
himself, and when found he was care
fully covered UP with the bed clothes,
and the scattering of the shot would
indicate that if he had shot himself he
would have had to pull the trigger
with his toe, and as his side was par
alyzed he could not have covered him
self. The hired man, who was arrested
is still in custody. His name is Bal
dausser Obbenhauser. The stories he
tells are very conflicting with the facts,
and he undoubtedly knows more than
he wants to tell. This is the most
miXed-up case that ever occurred IN
this vicinity, and the people are greatly
worked up. Over-it.

Ferdinand Just, in age three score years,
and a pitiable victim of restitution, was re-
moved to the city hospital last evening by
the police suffering from frozen feet. For
some time past he has been living in his
bachelor apartments at 2318 Sheridan avenue
north. but not having been seen about by
the Esighbors for several days the attention
of Patrolman James Monitor, who resides
near was directed to the case. Upon inves-
tigation Just was found lying near the stove
in his house, emaciated and hungry, and
both his feet frozen to the ankles. The frost
bites had been sustained five days ago, and
the members were shockingly decomposed.
The atmosphere of the house was unbearable
in its foul stencil. The physicians at the hos
pital decided that it would be necessary to
amputate some of the toes of each foot. Just
was resting comfortably late last night.
