CLAIMS THE SCHOOL HOUSE.
Peculiar Middle in Which q District
Finds Itself.

One OF those peculiar muddles
which come from careless handling OF
public business has come about in
South Dickinson and school district
No. ll2 near Carlton is likely to find
itself minus a school house. The
school district in an early day was
given by John Baxter an acre Of
ground on which to build a school
house. He executed a deed to the
land but for some reason-careless-
ness on the part Of those interested,
probably-it was never put on record.
Baxter later on mortgaged his farm
to r. H. Thayer Of Buffalo, N. Y,
and in the description Of the mort
gage made no exemption Of the one
acre of school yard. Thayer after
while foreclosed and took the land
and on examining his papers found
that by their terms he owned the
school yard and the building thereon.
In the meanwhile the district had
built fine country school house at q
cost Of about $500 including fixtures
and made other improvements.
A few days ago Mr.. Thayer ar.
ranged to move the building to an.
other part Of the farm and transform
it into farm dwelling. The district
kicked Justify and proposes to fight
the matter in the courts. How it
will end is not certain. Another
similar case has occurred in Sherman
township where deed was also not
recorded, making all sorts OF compli-
cations. That case is in process Of

This was the first game Of Abilene's
tour OF Kansas and Colorado.
The Salina Union in an excellent
report Of the game says;
"The batteries OF both teams were
simply superb as is evidenced by the
fact that the first twelve men to the
bat went out in succession. In
the first half Of the third Abilene had
a good chance to score, but was
finally retired with man on both
second and third bases, The great
game was fought and won. The Abb
lene boys put up agood game all the
way through, but they could not
bunch their hits on Abbott and thus
they failed to score several times
when they'would otherwise have done
so. The Athertons certainly did
themselves proud. Every man play
ed ball for all there was In him and
they are deserving Of praise in win
ming the.fnest game played in Salina
in years. The game was clean
throughout. There was no wrang
ling on either side orany ofthe things

A Candidate for superintendent.

In the proper column appears the
announcement Of Miss AIRY Holland
as a candidate for the nomination for
superintendent of public instruction
for Dickinson county at the Republi-
can county convention. Miss Holland
is one Of the most talented teachers
in Dickinson county. She has taught
successfully in the Pennington and
johnson districts has a wide acquain-
lance among those interested in edu-
cation. She was one OF the two
teachers out Of 1875 who last summer
secured first grade certificate and
she ranks high as a talented and able
worker in school circles. Miss Hol-
land deserves much credit for having
made her own way in the world since
childhood and her eight years work
as a teacher have been marked by a
success that is evidence OF her ability.
The Office is one which a woman can
fill acceptably, large number Of
counties in the State having women
superintendent. Miss Hollands
popularity, acquaintance and ability
will make her strong candidate and
Il she is nominated the Republicans
will have winning candidate.
