Following the report of the superintead-
ent was read an opinion from c. w. Smith,
attorney for the board Interpreting several
points of the law which the board APP
peared to be somewhat confused. In Mr..
Smiths opinion, additional revenue pro-
cured under the compulsory education levy
cannot be used in the payment of debts i'm
Cured prior to the passage of the act. He
did not believe it the boards duty to pay
part of the cost of bringing truant children
into the schools, because other provisions
have been made toward enforcing the law.
The board. he said, could use it's discretion
in maintaining a parental home for the
schooling of a certain class OF truant chill
dren. The law makes it possible for school
boards to establish Institutions in connec-
ton with the schools where reform work
may be carried on in addition to a regular
course of study.
The committee on manual training re-
ported that twenty-eight young women had
passed the mental examination for admis-
sion to the Training School, but three had
been rejected, having been found physc-
ally unable to stand the training. The
board appointed DR.. Martha j. Smith 10

who apply for positions in the educational
department of the schools.

BISHOP WALDEN CRITICISED.
Persons Attending Conference Claim
lint He InNuIted Them.

Terre Haute Dispatch from Chicago Tribune.
Those who attended the Northwest lndi-
ana Conference at Lebanon, report that it
was the most unpleasant session ever held,
and they put the responsibility on Bishop
Walden, who, they say, was peevish and in
sultng. He treated the presiding elders
with incivilty until one of them openly re-
belled and undertook to rebuke the bishop
in the presence of the conference. The lay
men who looked in on the conference were
repeatedly insuted. The bishop would tell
them to leave. You have no business in
here anyway" he would say, and then
would tell them to Ego talk 10 the women.
The woman at whose house he was a guest
said that if it had not been for her respect
for the Methodist Church, she would have
asked him to go somewhere else.
The Rev Worth Tippy and the Rev. Mr..
TillotsOn have written cards to the news
papers denying the stories about Bishop
Walden In his card Mr.. Tippy says: The
bishop doubtless made few mistakes, but
there never was bishop who was so cas-
lily approached" Mr.. Tillotson says
while one cannot defend every ruling of
the bishop nor the sharp way in which he
replied to some of the ministers, except to
say he was continually overWorked. yet he

his hostess. l look to see a correction from
her in the public press. She expressed the
deepest sympathy for him to one of the
ministers of the city for the way in which
he was overworked. He was still receiving
callers night after night long after the
family had retired.

Dyea VS.. Skaguay.
Harper's Weekly.


OF our l6O passengers and 100 horses there
is not one l know who will go to Dyea ana
go over the Chilcat. Those who left saw
New York, sixteen days ago, knew of moth
ing but Chilcat. There were rumors of
White pass. but it seemed incredible that
there should be much easier pass over
the mountains only few miles from Dyea.
Even when 1t was reported definitely that
there was a good trail from Skaguay bay.
there We're conflicting reports But the
facts are these:
The Chilcat trail was that taken by the
Indians who brought gold over from the
Yukon to the Russians at Sitka- The
w mite pass trail was also known to the
Indians, but when the miners began to
come in the Indians kept it secret in order
to do the packing. The White pass is but
1900 feet while the Chilcat Is 300 feet,
and in winter there is an easy ascent up
the canyon of the Skaguay sixteen miles
to the summit, This will be seen to be
ever, it is not gradual. the first five miles
from the Lynn canal being alluvial flats.
The present trail has been cut through the
forest by company formed for the con-
Struction of railway through White pass.
1t is known the British Yukon Mining,
Trading and Transportation Company. The
American company is known under the
name of the Alaskan and Northwestern
Territories Trading Company. Mr.. G. II.
Escolme, managing director OF the Amer
lean company VINO IS passenger on the
Islander. says of White pass trail:
we have cut trail over the summit
from Skaguay at cost of $lVtoo. We own
the town site of Skaguay and are building
wharves, etc We cut the trail mainly TO
prospect for the railroad ! went over the
trail on the 18th of July and came back on
the 18th. Then the trail did not go beyond
the summit, but we have had men working
there right along since. 1t is private
trail but we about the only people who
are not taxing the miners, and we don't
want to do so at any time We expect to
get few miles of the railroad built this
fall; but even when the railroad is done
there will be many who will go over the
trail 1t may be that we shall charge
small toll. One of my present purposes Is
to try to reduce the price of packing.
which is now 20 cents a pound. and we
mean to see that the miners get supplies
Mt q reasonable cost"

The Chicago & Northwestern road yester-
day announced a rate of $1095 from Omaha
Sl0.S5 from Council Bluffs and 81 from Des
Moines, to be effective on TUESDAYS and
Thursdays, during the continuance of the
st. Louis exposition. All the other roads in
terested in the territory affected will make
the same rates. 1t is said by the roads
making the rates that they are compelled
to make them in consequence of the seven
dollar rate made from Kansas CITY to Chi
cago by the Great Western. The rates made
yesterday are based on the rate of ~ from
Des MONIES, the local rates being added to
Des Moines from Omaha and Council Bluffs
The result of the rate of 81 from Kansas
City made by the Great " stern has been
TO reduce all the through rates from trans
missouri territory for which Kansas City
is common gateway, and it will cost all
the roads thousands of dollars before the
matter is ended.
The Union Pacific has entered q nrotast
against being held in any degree responsible
for the payment of fiVe-dOllar commissions
on Colorado business and three-dolar COM
claimed by some of the roads that the
Union PacItlc was responsible for these new
rates or commission, but the truth is that
1t is no more responsible for them than
is the man in the moon. Some time ago a
meeting was held in Chicago between rep
reSentatiVeS of the st. Paul the Northwest
ern, the burlington and the Atchison roads
at which it was agreed to ignore the rates
of commission that had been paid by the
Great Western road and to pay no larger
commissions than were being paid at the
time of the meeting. This agreement was
broken by the offer of the st. Paul to pay
commission of So for the first ticket sold
over it's new route to California and al
though it protested that it had no intention
of paying the commissions on regular BUSH
ness, the other roads promptly met the RAJ
of commission and have been paying it ever
since. The Union Pacific had nothing what
ever to do with this matter and was in no
way concerned with the payment of the
larger commits sions.
1t is announced that the general meeting
of all the Western roads for the purpose OF
considering the rate situation will be held
about the 25th of the present month, al
though the date may be changed to the
early part of October An effort will be
made however, to have 1t before the last
of this month.

We are drinking the wine of ages,
From, cups that trimming over
With the sweet of honey unbought with money
Distilled from the heart of the clover.
The flowers afringe the wayside
Are in raiment of purple and gold
To the rougll-hewn edge of the old stone ledge
The elingng brier-vines hold.
We are breaking life's fine elixir
In the watt Of the perfumed breeze,
The sudden showers, the sunlit hours,
The rustic of leaves on the trees.
The fathomegs blue of the heaven,
TIE beauty and bloom of the day,
Are making us yOung--they are waking the tongue
OF the years that have passed away.
'Tis the radiant rare September,
With the cluster ripe the vine,
With scents that mingle in spicy tingle
on the hill slopes glimmering line.
And summers step behind us,
And autumn's a thought before,
And each fleet sweet day that we meet on the way
Is a angel a the door.
