500 respectively for keeping house

attention. The crop is large and some
ten are awaiting sentence. Conyic-

school Aportionment.

re, 8. D.-The land commission
i Ofice has just made a semi-annuall
1ortionment OF the interest and in-l
scome fund to the public schools Of the
different counties of the state. This
apportionment, like other January ap-
portionments, is not so large MS that
made In July when the returns from
leases had been received, and amounts
to about $4,000, the per capita
amount being 20 cents for each child
of school age in the state. The re-,
turns made to the office show an in
crease in the school population of $3.50
since last year. Notwithstanding this
increase in the school population the
amount furnished the counties from
the fund in 1897 is II cents per capita
greater than it was for 1896, showing
that the fund is on steady increase.
The counties showing the largest
school population are, in their order:
Minnehaha, 6,626; Brown, 4.266; Law
renee, 1867; Yankton, 1872. The or.
ganize6 counties showing the smallest
number of school population are Buff
falo, 1914; Stanley, 176. The apportion-
ments of the funds for the counties
of Brown, Hyde, Fall River, Day and
Stanley are held up by the officers I'M
til the officials of these counties make
the required returns to the commits
siOner's office.

The justice sustained the charge and
imposed a fine Of SOS, payment of

went to Jail. 1t is calculated by the
defense that the law on which the
prosecution was based is unconstitu-
tional, being in conflict with the inter-

Fargo. n. D.>-Oficals feel reason

of the bandits who held up the North
ern Pacific passenger train near Moor
head last October For the last two
months members of the local police
force have been at work on the mat
ter, and finally succeeded in locating
one Of the men. He was induced to
return to Fargo last Wednesday under
the supposition that he was to meet
one of his pals. While here he was
kept under surveillance till Friday
night when he was induced to go to
Moorhead. He was placed under ar
rest there and taken at once to st.
Paul by Chief Detective Newton and
Detective McFetridge, of the Northern
Pacific. They had been notified to
come here by the local officer who had
worked up the case.
The man under arrest had been here
some time before the train was held
up and worked in hotel here as
blind. He familiariZed himself with
TIE situation and made all arrange
ments for the robbery. He engaged
some local talent to participate in the
affair but the latter weakened before
the hold-up occurred. The prisoner is
now in Jail in st. Paul, and is said to
have made a complete confession i'm
plicating all who We're in the affair."

were more thoroughly enjoyed by
these ladies than the reception and
hop given complimentary to them at
the Waikiki home of Mrs. L. *. Wilder

The place was decorated tastefully
for the occasion. American and
Hawaiian flags were spread over the
doors and evergreens and leis were
hung about on the walls. Out on the
lawn were stationed the refreshment
tables. Many bright lights served to
illuminate the grounds. Easy chairs
were placed along the beach for the
comfort of those who would rather
watch the billowy waves coming in

i'm the gay whlrl of the waltz. The
