apparatus. Miss Jane Bottomley,
the teacher, has been very active
during the winter, and the school
board has been cooperating with
her in many ways.
No. 81, Vail, Emil libel clerk, has
|just added a collection OF excellent
books to the extent OF $40. The
books will much aid the pupils in
No. 81. Miss Jennie Russell
must be given largely the credit OF
securing this library of excellent
books. Miss Russell has taught an
excellent school in No. 81, and the
board has offered her the school for
'99 and 1900.
No 81, Sheridan, the Marion
Johnson school, has just increased
its library.
No. 10, Swedes Forest, Chris
Knudson clerk, has just added an

school equipment. No. So will ask
for Special State Aid. . 1t has
now complied with all requirements.
There were forty-one applicants
for certificates at the recent examina-
tions, but only eighteen were
fortunate enough to pass. OF this
number four received third grades,
thirteen received second and one
received a first grade. To John
McDougall Of Delhi belongs the
honor of the prize speller. He re-
ceived credit Of 100 per cent.

The American Teacher says that
the American boy needs:
l, More respect for parents and
teachers.
2. A good whipping when I'M
ruly.
3. A shorter boyhood.
4. Respect for the aged.
). A liberal mind towards for
eign children.
g. More knowledge of universal
history
Z. An eye for the beautiful,
rather than the beauties.
s. An observing father
8. A home fit to keep him from
the street
10. Less knowledge OF vulgar
language.
There should be some way de-
vised in our rural schools whereby
the outhouses may be rendered fit
for use in Md winter. The time to
do this is in midsummer. Too
many times we start schools in the
fall with doors off the hinges, or the
building itself totally unfit for use
after the first storm. Whose bust
ness is this? Clearly tbs those who
manage the business affairs of the
school districts. If the civilization
and refinement of community is
indexed by it's sanitation and care
of its garbage, then we who manage
rural schools are neglectful and
barbarous.

BULL FIGHT FOR GoLcoNDA.

GoLCoNDA, April 29.-The people of
Golconda are divided on the question of
bull fight to be or bull fight not to be-.
The bull ight-to-be faction is strong In
the majority and genuine bull fight in
this place some time in July is now as
sured.
The trouble started something like a
week or ten days ago, when the idea
was conceived by some member of the
committee of arrangements for the
monster celebration to be held here dur
ing the first week in July, to send to the
City OF Mexico for toreador aud regu-
lar lighting bulls, as a feature OF the
entertainment. To conceive an idea OF
this kind at Golconda Is to act, and a
subscription paper was started to defray
the expenses of the venture. The mon
ey was soon raised and negotiations are
now pending with prominent toreadors
Of Mexico.
The matter was discreetly kept quiet.
for it was feared that the plan would
meet with serious opposition from GER
tain quarters. The story leaked out,
however. and the minority howl went
up. The majority are paying little at
teution to it, however, and are going
on with their preparations for big bull
fight, with Spanish bulls, gaily dressed
toreadors, pit, aud yelling grandstand.
The digging of the pit viii be com.
menced within few days, and the bull.
fight-advocating majority insist that
the crowds which attend the Golconda
celebration will be treated to the fnesi
bull fight ever seen out of Spain.

END OF RICHARD WILLIS.
Burned Himself to Death in "A
Courthouse.

A Marysville, Cal, dispatch OF April
u, gives the following account OF the
death OF Richard Willis, who Is snp-
posed to be the same Dick Willis who
left here last fall for California after
the Grand Jury refused to indiet him
for tho murder OF Indian Frank at
Hamilton
"The Sutter county courthouse, at
Yubd City, vas discovered on fire early
this morning. and Two hours later only
the walls Of the handsome building we're
left. The FIRE originated IN the ward
for the insauc, here Richard Willis
Was confined preparatory ta being taken
10 Stockton this morning. How be
managed to start tAe gUnA tgration is a
my stery,as be was searched FOR matches
before being locked up by Under Sher-
if Moves, and none vas discovered oa
him or secreted In bis cell After the
fire started his cries were heard bv
several people and frantic efforts were
made to rescue him, but without avail.
"The crazy man who perished in the
flames was picked up on the road near
Nicolaus Wednesday. He said the Al
mighty met him on the road and warned
him that he would die in three hours, a
! prediction which he swore was full
filed. although he was little hazy as
10 how ne got back on earth the second
+ time. lie said he met number 'who
had gone before, and that some OF
them were In devil of fix.
/ A similar dispatch appeared In the
Chronicle but the name was given as
"Richard Wills, and some doubts
have been entertained here that 1t was
Dick Willis, but the following letter,
which we received to-day from w. L.
Davis at Redwood City, Cal, sets all
doubts at rest. He inclosed the Chron.
icle dispatch and says:
"On reading the above, it truck me
that the party mentioned must bt
Richard Willis and not Richard Wills

ten to the officials of Sutter county, O.
which Yuba City is the county seat
and from the answers received, there /,
no doubt but my surmises concerning
the identity Of the person mentioned ii
the dispatch we're correct"
Mr.. Davis has known Willis for q
years and we regret that his lettel
reached us too late to be published IL
full.
The person who last heard from vii
lis here is j. B. Orr, whe received
letter from him dated at Shasta City
CAL, about three weeks ago. He wrot
that he was going to Trinity, as he di'
not like 1t at Shasta City, where h
had been prospecting. The lette
showed no evidences OF insanity.

THE THIRD PAYMENT ON THE
ROBUST.

The third payment Of Il 900 on the
Robust mine was made last Saturday
by the Ely Mining ( Milling CO., and
like all OF the previous payments it was
made several days before it was due.
The future of this mine at the present
time looks very bright. Mr.. K. D. r..
Thompson. a stockholder 10 the com
pany, returned TO Salt Lake City last
Monday, after making a thorough in
vestigation of their property, and be-
foro leaving he expressed himself to a
representative of the NEWS as being
greatly pleased with the outlook. Ths
size of the ledge is exceeding all expec-
tations, and the value Of the ore is in
creasing While the operations will
probably be conducted on limited
scale for while yet, he stated that a
large plant would be erected here as
soon as the condition OF the mine justi-
fies II.
In the past few days, Manager Davis
has put on several new men and about
dozen are now employed opening up
the mine. He informs us, too, that
within a couple OF weeks the sinking OF
double compartment, vertical work
ing shaft will be commenced on the st.
Patrick claim adjoining the Robust as
the incline at present in use is too small
and there Is no room for dump. A
gasoline hosting engine capable OF
hosting several hundred feet win be
added to the equipment.
This company is composed Of some of
the best business and mining men In
Salt Lake and its treatment of our cit
liens has been such as TO inspire conf
dence. The immediate future of this
camp as a gold producer depends large
ly on its success, which VIC wish it with
out stint or bound.

]. f. Bradshaw is authority for the
statement that Utah has practically
quit shipping cattle to market until fail,
says the Denver Stockman. He also
SAYS that Nevada and Idaho are in the
same condition, and that there are no
yearlings to be had in any OF the States
named. Wyoming and Montana have
bought considerable of them, but yet
have not enough, and it looks very
much as if they will have to go South
and pay the prices demanded rather
than let the prolific range promised for
the season go to waste.

Reno, Storey and Eureka Vote
Declared Valid.

The supreme Court Saturday morn
ing answered the petition ofMeMillan's s
attorneys requesting a decision upon
their demurrer, argued few weeks
ago. The opinion was read by Justice
Massey and substantially declares the
votes OF Reno, Eureka and Storey coun-
ties 10 be legal and valid.
This practically brings the case back
to the day of the commencement of the
action by Mcmillan. Sadler has a plur-
ality OF o. votes and the case will now
be tried, and the evidence introduced
will be the ballots used in the election.
The Court reversed its decision made
two years ago in the SweeneyHjul con.
test, which was found to be inconsist'
ent with the above decision.
