FROM THE INDIAN SCHOOL.

Sunday school has been reorgan-
lied. The session will begin at 10
a. m.
Mics Carrie Rode, from Manawa,
Wisconsin, the newly appointed
primary teacher began work Tues
day,
Work on the new dormitory is be-
ing pushed in order to have the
mason work completed before cold
weather sets in.
Prof. Rokestraw, supervisor of this
district of the Indian Schools spent
the past week with us. He and Supt.
and Mrs. johnson were in Clontarf
Wednesday.
Miss Kohton has resigned her
position as laundress. She left
Monday for her home in Arizona
where she will help her aunt run a
hotel. Miss White, of the Indian
Territory, has been appointed to fill
the vacancy.
One of Clontarf's enterprising mer-
chants was discovered by Supt. John
son cutting and baling hay on the
government land. He had one car
nearly loaded and filled and another
carload ready to haul. He was
to unload the car and put
she hay back on Uncle Sans farm.
He will be dealt with later on.

Stamps on Leases.

The revenue department at Wash
ington has just recently issued a
ruling regarding the war tax on leases
that will be of interest to tenants and
local real estate agents. 1t provides
that where two leases are made and
signed, one by the landlord and the
other by the tenant, revenue stamp
must be placed on ca ch lease. Here
tofore it has been the custom to use
but one stamp, placing it on the lease
held by the landlord, the other lease
having been considered a duplicate.
The department holds that both
leases are original. Leases for one
year require a 25 cent stamp; for
three years so cents and for five or
more Six.

TO KILL THE HEsslAN FLY.
Recommendation of the Minnesota
Experiment Station.


A late bulletin of the Agricultural
Experiment Station make the follow
ing recommendations in regard to
destroying the Hessian fly. The ad-
vice will be of interest to the farmers
who suffered from the pest this year
"Late sowing of fall wheat-This
furnishes the fall brood, which issues
in September and early October,
nothing upon which to deposit its
eggs, or if deposited, it is too late for
the larvae to burrow to safe place
in the stem to pass the winter.
Burning the stubbles has been
found to destroy many of the mag
gots and x-seeds."
Rotation of crops often leaves the
adults without wheat plants on which
to deposit eggs, SO that when wheat
is sown the flies are all dead in that
vicinity. 1t is a process of starving
them out.
"Pasturing early sown wheat in the
fall is likely to destroy large num-
bers of meggots and 'hax-seeds.'

The Street Widened.

The Morris Investment Co. this
week decided to donate to the village
the 19 or 20 feet from the Harris ad-
dition necessary to make Atlantic
avenue 10 feet in width. reserving IL
feet for sidewalk purposes.
Their action is certainly very iberal
and public spirited.
D. T. Wheaton has been busy plat
ting the six blocks this week.
uThe lots have been appraised at
from $4,000 to $3.50, making total
valuation of $4,000. The two lots
on 9th street are valued at $1,000 and
81 800 respectively.

Two Ears to the Stock.

One of the most interesting exhibits
at the county fair last week and one
which we inadvertently neglected to
mention was the corn exhibit of r. J.
Hall. The corn was on the stock and
strange to say every stock had two
good full-grown ears. When asked
concerning it, Mr.. Hall said that he
had carefully selected the seed for
several years from corn bearing two
ears to the stock and had each year
raised greater amount with this
peculiarity. He now has several
bushels of seed all from stocks bear
ing two ears.
The feat is quite triumph in the
agricultural line and shows what can
be accomplished by little persever-
ance and forethought.

the program with the "principle
points" after which were the two
papers, one by j. c. Morrison on the

At the Play House.

McPhee's Big Company of % peo-
pie will be at the opera house Oct.l6,
II and l9. The company carries its
own band and orchestra. The Win
nipeg Free Press says of them.
"Another crowded house greeted the
McPhee company at the theatre last
night. That amusing comedy, Arab
ian Nights, was put on in excellent
style and kept the audience in a roar.
This play has been presented here
several times before by visiting COM
panies, but we believe it has never
been quite so well acted as it was
last night. All the members OF the
caste were individually we'll suited to
their pats and the performance was
characterized by much go and dash.
Mrs. l.. Z. Vaudeville made great
hit as the mother in law and F. 6.
King as Hummingtop, Louis Rams
dell as Omarod, and John n Mac
leod as Dobson. played their parts
capitally as indeed did the whole
company.
The specialties, which included a
startling trapeze performance, we've as
usual received with lots of enthusi-
asm. 1t is indeed pleasure to have
q whole weeks visit from such a good
all rouad company as McPhee's, al
ways presenting something fresh and
attractive. Mr.. MePhee himself is an
acrobat of astonishing ability.

Contractors Called TO Account for
Supplying Poor Fuel.
The Commissioners have received re-
port from the Superintendent of the Water
Department complaining of the quality Of
coal that is being furnished TO the Dis
trict at the L Street pump house by the
coal contractors, S. S. Daish & Sons. The
report states that the coal is of poor
quality, and results in q loss of power and
causes more smoke than would result from
the use of better coal. Large clinkers, it
IS said, form in the CRATE Of the furnace
and often damage the machinery.
The superintendent also reports that he
has called the attention Of the contractor
TO the fuel several times and as a result
of his complaints a small quantity OF good
coal is delivered at the pump house. He
requests that permission be given him 10
purchase coal in open market, and that
/ Daish & Sons be compelled to haul away
| the last fuel they delivered at the pump
/ house. Captain Galliard, Assistant Engin-
! eer Commissioner took the matter in hand

! chased 100 tons of coal 10 compare il with
/ that which was being delivered under the
contract. The Commissioners have direct
ed that the contractors be informed that

The twenty second annual meeting Of the
Columbia Association of Baptist Churches,
at the First Baptist Church, was concluded
last night At the last session the report
Of the committee on young peoples work
was presented.
The report sets forth that owing to pecu-
liar circumstances surrounding some of the
leaders Of our young peoples work, togeth-
er with a failure to have cOmprehended
/ early enough the recommendations Of the
| former committee, there have been no reg
ularly appointed mass meetings of all our
| young people during the past year.
The work in the individual churches has
been faithfully and zealously carried on
through the various existing organizations.
and some new societies have been started
/ during the twelve months just ended.
In view Of the above facts our purpose
as a committee is simply to make a few
suggestions for the next year.
First-That as many as possible Of our young
people be urged to connect themselves with our
Baptist Social Union, and thereby come in
! direct contact with the leaders in our denorni-
/ national work in the District Of Columbia.
| Second-That the committee on young peoples
| work be requested TO arrange such general mass
/ meetings OF the various Young peoples CITaIlZl
! lions during the year they in their judgment
| NAV think best, and that such meetings, one Of
| which should be a social gathering, be held, as
| far as possible, in the smaller and missionary
| churches.
Tmrd-That e more specific effort be made
/ 10 procure systematic and proporuonate giving
/ on the part Of our young people, rather than
| the present spasmodic, periunctory, and lnsuih-
| cient contributions.
| Fourth-That we aim to raise the ideal Of the
young Christian TO that Of entire conseIV e,
which some one has called the spirit OF filled
life.
The report of the committee on Sunday
schools was considered at the afternoon
session. 1t was adopted, after being dis
cussed by F. A. Roderick, 5. \. Green, \.

This city receives something over $500,
600 from the license fees of saloons at $40
each; but the drinkers probably pay int
the tilIs Of these saloons ten times tn
amount of license fees, or say $4,000, 00t
