Reports from the harvest fields OF
Hand county indicate better crop
than that OF last year with the ex-
ception OF q strip east and west
through the center of the county, af-
fected by drouth and hail. AS a
whole it would appear from reports
of farmers in various sections that
there will be more wheat harvested
in Hand county this than last seas
on. The corn and potato crops are
fairly good.

The benefit OF persisting in n thing
was clearly demonstrated Tuesday
when the east bound train pulled
out OF Miller. a young man from
the west who stopped at Chas. Hen
shaw's to get dinner, did not come
out until the train was under way
and almost 100 yards from him.
Nothing daunted, however he start
ed to catch that train in the race OF
his life. Spectators said what a
fool" but he never quit until a hall
mile east Of town he met team and
persuaded the driver to turn and
drive him towards st. Lawrence,
where, it was supposed, he expected
to reach the train which would do
some switching. But his persistence
was rewarded. The engineer and
conductor must have been witnesses
to the race, as the train was stopped
a mile out, backed up, and the
young man taken aboard.

Over a hundred hoboeS were on a

EDUCATIONAL
By SUPERINTENDENT MORTON.

~~VVvVvVV~~VVV
There are many reasons why there
should be library in connection
with the school: SIT serves as a de-
pot of children's literature for both
teachers and children, Offering a va
riety of carefully selected books ar
ranged by subjects, with free access.
1t gives the children an opportunity
for wide acquaintance with books
and authors and to form a taste for
good Iea ding.
1t is storehoBse for tools for use
in school work, furnishing subjects
for compositions, poems, maps,
notes on current events, etc. 1t
helps to make the work OF the school
more interesting to children, lends a
voice on any subject under consider
alton. and relieves the strain the
teacher in some direction.
What advantage has the children's
library for educating the children
that the school has not?
The great advantage is that the
child comes to it because he wants
to, not because he is sent; it gives
the child greater freedom than does
the school; it has an individuality
OF its own, not being bound up with
other machinery; it teaches Indirect
~, through exhibitions, displays of
books etc. arousing curiosity and
thus teaches by suggestion; it gives
more time to individual study OF
children and their needs can select a
child's preferences and lead it to
good things by the best road"
1t is well to remember that our
law is very liberal in respect to the
establishment OF the library, permit
ting the board to use public funds
for that purpose.
Prof Davis is assisting IN three
weeks institute in Brown county.
Laura Stone is another accession
to the Teachers r. c. for the COM
ing year.
Prof Rogers of the State Normal
School at Madison is the newly elect
ed principal OF st. Lawrence.
Daisy Jones will take a special
course in music at Mitchell the com
ing year.
Arbie Crossman who has attended
at Brookings for the past year will
teach one of the east side schools the
coming winter.
So many OF our teachers are pre-
pairing to 90 to school, have gotten
married or been promoted to high
er grades in other parts of our state
that it will be necessary to employ a
great many who have not taught
heretofore. We are glad that we
have large number OF young per-
sons who are equal to the emergency
and are glad OF the opportunity to
press into the work.

HORSE THIEVES ESCAPE
 FROM VENTURES JAIL.
By Great Ingenuity Two Young Des- peradoes Regain Their
 Liberty

VENTURA, May 3L-Two horse-thieves escaped from the County Jail last night. They are William Hall, aged 19, and John Netto, aged 24, a Portuguese.
 Their escape was carried out in a most deliberate and well-planned manner. From a piece of stove wood smuggled in through a trusty, the prisoners made a wooden key to fit the paddock of the door. They displayed much ingenuity in its manufacture. It required much time, and was made only during spare mo- ments in the absence of the jail officials Upon escaping from their cell they climbed up the steel framework to the trapdoor leading to the roof. After con- siderable work this trap was broken open and the prisoners passed upon the roof To the chimney they attached a rope cIeverly made from their blankets, and by the aid of the rope the men lowered themselves to the ground.
 Their escape was not discovered until
