Another Offer to Pay the Illegal Special
School Tax

Another Offer to Pay the illegal Special
School Tax
The banking firm of DAILY, Donahoe &
Greenwood has notified the school board
that it will pay its share of the special
school tax pronounced illegal by the
supreme court, making the offers with
the provision that majority of the tax
be paid in similar manner 1t begins
to look as if this would be done and that
the vexed problem of keeping the schools
open will be solved.
AS mentioned several days ago, the
Northern Pacific Railway company has
offered to pay it's share of the tax, pro-
vided a majority is paid. If five or six
of the largest taxpayers in the district
do likewise enough money will be real
lied to run the schools to within month
of the time originally set for closing.
All idea of trying to issue certificates
of Indebtedness has been abandoned. Mr.
Greenwood of the bank has had the mat
ter Investigated by prominent lawyers
in Helena, who coincide with the opin-
ion of County Attorney Duffy that any
issue of certificates would be Illegal

From the emery wheel the plate goes to
the smoothing stone, which is also set to

PUPILS ARE WORKED UP
They Object to the Discipline En-.
forced in Their Room.
WANT ANOTHER TEACHER
More Trouble at the Lincoln School.
What the Spokesman OF the Un-
ruly Youngsters Has to Say
in Explanation.
WANT ANOTHER TEACHER

There is more trouble at the Lincoln
school. The same scenes which were en-
acted there some time ago are again
being witnessed. The only difference is
that the pupils have not gone out on
strike. The trouble, as before, is in Miss
Mary O'Keefe's room, but this time, in
stead of there being about 10 discomfort
ed scholars, it is alleged that nearly all
OF the pupils are dissatisfied.
Ever since the strike of little more
than month ago the children in Miss
OKeefe's room have been complaining
OF the discipline enforced by the teacher.
They alleged that they were being pun
ished without cause. During this week
there came near being strikes on two or
three occasions, but each time the pupils
would return to their seats on the prom
Use of Principal Cannon that they would
get justice at the next meeting of the
board of school trustees.
One of the pupils, who was one of
the leaders in the last strike, was seen
last evening after school by Standard
reporter. He said:
Yes, we have been having a whole lot
, of trouble in our room lately and l don
think it can be settled until Miss O'Keefe
is taken out of the room. Some of the
, other teachers and also some of the gem
tlemen of the school board, think that
we are gang OF tough kids, but they
are mistaken. 1 don't want to say that
We are angels. but then were just as
good as the otner kids.
TIL tell you the trouble about the
! whole thing if you promise not to pub
lsh my name Well, you see. Miss
O'Keeef she's not used to teaching fell
lows of our size, and she doesn't know
how to handle us, that's ALL"
Yesterday it was learned that Prin-
cipal George J. Cannon of the Lincoln
school had asked to have Miss OKeefe
transferred to another room. This mat
ter will be discussed at the next meet
ing of the board of school trustees. which
takes place next Monday evening.

Edwin Mayo is now playing the title role
He always has been considered an ex-

nothing but high-salaried positions, but it
remained for the part of Puddn head Will
son to carry him with one bound to the
enviable position which he now holds.
Mr.. Mayo is large. fine-looking man.
and is possessed of a strength of char.

the part admirably. The part of Rowy,

by Miss Frances Graham
Miss Adelaide Allen, who plays the
part of Roxy, the one-sixteenth part ne

SUSTAINED THE POINT.
Judge Napton Rules on Two Motions
to Strike Out Answers

Judge Napton Rules on Two Motions
to Strike Out Answers.
Decisions on two demurrers and mo-
tons to strike were handed down in the
district court yesterday by Judge Nap
ton, following closely the decision he
made Thursday on the demurrer and
motion to strike in the case of Mary B.
Fowler against Frank Conley and 9TH
ers.
Yesterdays decisions were in the cases
of Mary B. Fowler against Neils Han
son and wife and Mary B. Fowler against
Christian r. Schurch. In all of these
cases Mrs. Fowler, the relict of Philip E.
Evans, deceased. is suing to recover
what she alleges to be dover rights in
property of her late husbands estate,
sold on administra ton. The defendants
answered and she moved to strike the
answers and demurred to them, her chief
point being that in the answers separate
answers were not separately stated.
Judge Napton in his decisions yester-
day, as in the one Thursday, upheld this
contention and sustained the motion to
strike but overruled those portions onf
the motion to strike based on other
grounds. In all probability leave will be
granted to file amended answers
In the case of P. s. fancy against NJ
Vollenweider. Judge Napton yesterday
allowed the bill of exceptions and amend
ments thereto and overruled the obiec-
lions to them.

meteorological Conditions in South Al
RIGA Do Not Inspire Dread.
From the London Standard.
Observations of the weather have
been systematicall made for many
years in South Africa, and in the Cape
Colony the meteorological conditions
have been as carefully and completely
studied as in England. In other parts.
however, the observations are far less
satisfactory, and in the Transvaal OBJ
servatons may be said to scarcely eX-
list, our knowledge of the weather
changes being extremely meaeer. Some
few years ago the report of the meteo-
Biological commission at the Cape of
Good Hope embodied detailed rain fail
| maps for each month, showing the dis
tribution of the rain in different parts
of South Africa. The average results
for the year show that, with the excep-
ton of a small area in the immediate
vicinity of Cape Town, the total rain
fall for the year is almost wholly below
90 inches-that is considerably less than
in London. In most places the average
for the year is less than 10 inches and
at some stations it falls as low as five
inches for the whole Il months.
In the Orange Free state the average
rain fall for the year is about 20 inches.
The winter rains are very small, the
aggregate for month being only a
few tenthS of an inch on the average.
With the commencement of the south
ern summer the rains increase, al
though it it not until November and
December that the average fall for the
month exceeds an inch and even in those
months the rain fall in many places is
only 0.3 inch or 04 inch. In January
February and March the average in the
Orange Free State is four or five inches
in each month. The meager returns for
the Transvaal show that in 1890 the
rain fall eight miles east of Johannes
burg was practically nil In July,
August and September, while in
October the rain fall was SIT inches,
which was the wettest month of the
year, and rain fell on II days. In both
November and December the rain fall
in the vicinity of Johannesburg ex-
ceeded five inches, and the total number
of days with rain during the year was
81. In the Orange Free State the re-
suits for 1890 show that there was prac-
tically no rain in September but in
October the rains We're fairly heavy and
the Basutoland September is also ex-
ceedingly dry.

far more extensively used than formerly.
Twenty Years ago beveled mirrors were
comparatively rare: now they are COM

sizes. Beveled plates large and small.
and both straight and bent are used for
various other purposes. The process of
