General Leonard Wood, military gov
ernor of Cuba, says that only one case
OF embezziement has been discovered
among the 10000 American soldiers
sent to Cuba. The amount stolen was
$3.50, and the guilty party Is serving a
three years sentence. The papers en-
gagged in slandering American honesty
will ignore this official statement.

FIRE DEPARTMENT FOR
THE NORTH SIDE IS
BEING TALKED ABOUT.

At an early meeting of the council a
resolution will be submitted asking
the council to authorize the establish
nent of fire department. or the North
side 1t is said that such fire protection
is very necessary on the side north of
the river. An alderman interested in
the movement said: Suppose fire
should break out on the North side of
the river while gale was blowing, and
that it was so located as to endange-
adjacent property, and quick call was
sent in to the South side engime station,
and in responding to the call the depart
ment found its progress checked by IN
open bridge incalcuabie damage posi-
bly, would result. The organization
and operation of fire department on
the North side is necessary improve
ment, and | look for one to be in exis-
tence before next spring The cw
taken by the alderman above quoted is
but reflection of the wishes of the
people of that section of tine city, and a
united effort will be made to secure
from the city an appropriation for thls
purpose.

RECTOR GRAY MAKES
A FEW CAUSTlC
REMARKS ON RITUALISM.

Owing to the widespread comment that
the conservation of the Ven Archdea-
con Weller brought about caused Rec
tor Gray of st. James church TO refer
to the subject in his Sunday sermon.
Mr.. Gray ardently believes that the ritu-
alism and pomp exhibited in T. e Fond
du Lac cathedral was proper, both from
an historical as well as picturesque view
point. He remarked that people We're
very free with their criticis1us of the
bishop, which he claimed is not com
mendable. He says that if some Epis-
copalians object to Bishop Grafton's
spectacular all they nave got to do is to
remain silent and to pocket their dis
like. He believes this is free country,
therefore everybody has right to do as
he pleases, and he doesn't except Bishop
Grafton.

CHARTER MUST BE
AMENDED TO GET
CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL

1t is not generally understood said
City Attorney Edward l.. Kelley that
before the establishment of a cel trail
high school here the charter must be
amended Under our present charter
it would be impossible to give concrete
expression to the central system even
should the people endorse it ut the spring
election. The Legislature has thrown
safeguards around city charters by in
sisting that before any amendment is
obtainable it must have the sanction of
at least three fourths of the municipal
council. When the legislature erected
this safeguard it is proper to conclude
that it had in mind the outcropping of
such movement rs was witnessed IN
this city last week,
While l cannot forecast what results
would follow any effort to amend the
charter ii does seem to me that argu-
ments must be advanced that cannot be
challenged before such step will be
taken.
"As far as / have been informed there
seems to be a general sentiment which
favors the retention of the present school
system. 1t does seem absurd to throw
away II really excellent school system
for one which gives rise to great deal
of criticism.

PETER KORNELY WILL
CONTEST THE ELECTION
OF Mr.. HACKER.

Peter Kornely, who was the Demo
cratic candidate for county treasurer,
and who came within twenty-eight
votes of beingEelected will contest Mr..
Hackers right to the Office. Mr. Kor-
nely's contention is that he received a
number of split votes in the fourth ward
which were enough to have elected him
with.a substantial majoritg but owing to
the incompetency or neglect or error of
theBoard of Inspectors of the ward these
votes were not counted for him, hence
he alleges he was counted out.
Mr. Kornely says he can bring ample
proof TO show he shoEld be declared
elected, and he thinks that when the
court hears the arguments it certainly
will give him the Office.

1t is understood that reserved seats for
this star performance will be placed on

but it is doubtful whether the Turner

CITIZENS TALK OF
HIGH SCHOOL TO
THE CITY ALDERMAN.

At an adjourned meeting of the city
council, held in the court house last
Friday discussion into the merits of
the central high school system was the
feature. Those who favored and those
who opposed the project were out in
force and vigorously urged their re-
spectiye ideas. Prof. c. E. Patzer, who
is earnestly opposed to centralizing the
high schools made long argument,
which was instructive and intelligent,
He took the statistics prepared by the
Special committee, showing the condi
tion of high schools throughout the
state and used them to prove his posi-
ton, that Manitowoc, under district
system is much better off than any 9th
er in the state. From Mr., Patzer's
point of view Manitowoc has the best
school system in the United States, and
he said he bases his Judgment on re-
suits.
Mr.. Patzer was supported by Judge
Anderson, who strenuously opposes
merging the three high schools. Prof
Guttman also spoke against the scheme
as did E. G. Nash, while Fred Schuette's
position is logical one. He wants a
central high school, but he would have
it stand for an advanced curricula.
Albert Schmidt spoke in a general
way for the high school, alleging better
results could be obtained by concentrat-
ing the teaching force into one struc-
ture. A. c. Schmidt also favored a
central system as did J. P Nolan and
Alderman Pohl Nothing was done.

house and elected a janitor in

adopted, but the Finance committee
took exception to the report of the

discrepancy of over $1,000 appeared. 1t
was explained, however, but not by Il
member of the Board of trustees that
the discrepancy was explainable in an
error of formulating the report Mr..
Rahr, secretary of the board was called
upon for an explanation, but he failed
to put in an appearance.

800 ManitOwOc Persons TO Participate in

DISTINGUISHED PREACHERS MAY BE THERE
The New Structure Reproduction of st.

Free From Any Encumbrances.-
Will Be a Feast Day.

On Sunday next the new Norwegian
Lutheran church at Valders will be
dedicated The structure is complete
and the congregation, who now have
their own religious home, are happy in
the knowledge that it is theirs free from
any debt or other eneumbrance. The
new edifice is almost an exact reproduc-
ton Of st. Pauls Norwegian Lutheran
church, St Clair street, this city, and
Is quite as architeeturaily pretty and
cosy. In the interior it has been fur
nished with that taste and refinement
which characterize similar spiritual
structures.
The new church will be known as
The Saviour's Norwegian Lutheran
church to distinguish it from the others
within the Manitowoc jurisdiction.
1t has been determined that the ded-
icatory exercises shall be as imposing
as they can be made. Some 300 persons
have chartered a special train and they
will leave the Wisconsin Central depot
about $50 o'clock in the morning, al
lowing ample time for the excursionists
to reach the church to participate in the
religious functions connected with the
dedication. Several distinguished min
listers have consented to be present, each
taking a pert in the exercises. The
Rev. Mr.. Hoyme, an eloquent member
of the Lutheran church, whose home is
Eau Claire has been charged with deliv
ering the dedicatory sermon. The lit
urgy will be said by the Rev. Mr. Houg-
en- of Decorah Ia, the Rev. Mr.. Rogne
Of this city and the Rev. Mr.. Hoyme.
In consequence of the large number of
Norwegian Lutherans who will make
the excursion from this city, it has been
decided that no service will be held on
Sunday morning at st. Paul's church.

THE CITY OBJECTS TO
THE ASSESSMENT MADE
BY COUNTY BOARD.

There is some talk in the city to CON
test the assessment made by the County
board. Some persons think that Manito-
woo got a cold deal, that while the
county assessment outside the city re
manned almost stationary, there is
quite an Increase in the city proper.
There is a rumor afioat that an Equaliz-
ing board may be applied for, which
will have power to adjust the assess
ment SO that the county and city will
each bear its proportionate share of the
burden. Before this can be done, how
ever, it will be necessary TO obtain
legislative consent.
