Education in west St. Paul.


To the Gil o e: On Tuesday evening
last the West st. Paul. Dakota county,
city council passed a resolution chang
ing the number of grades from five to
three for a teacher to take care Of
This, Mr.. Hurd (whO is also a street
car conductor) stated would give the
children better advantages by not hav-

was not compulsory to comply with the
resolution.
Mr.. Hurd, who is the prime mover of

better education than sixty in five grades.

and will continue as the attraction at
that theater for the remainder of the
week.
George H. Broadhurst explains why he
has named his new play .tThe House

his desire to get away from the why's"

country since the Wrong Mr. Wright -
what Happened to Jones' and why
Smith Left Home were first produced
by him.
The new play has to do with the &C.
centricities CT a doctor named Jack, who
is building house. So those who have
an idea the play deals with the familiar
nursery rhymes are mistaken.
The cast which will be seen in the
above farce at the Metropolitan next

Sensational Scenes of Monday Were
Not Repeated.

Not Repeated.
NEW YORK. Sept. T.-There was
marked change in the order of taings on
the New York Cotton Exchange today
While early operations and fluctuations
partook greatly of yesterdays sensational
developments, there was a quick return
to normal conditions in ~ trly ell respects.
The pronounced strength of this market
last night gave European bears another
twinge OF fright, which resulted in sky
rocket rise Of 70 to 1879 points in Liverpool
soon after the opening. New York shorts
made wild drive for safer ground on
the opening here but before their demand
could be appeased, prices climbed 3 to is
points. Then came a smash Of IS to %
points under profit taking. With the COL
lapse came the passing off of the bull
fever and a return of careful trading.
Thereafter changes were comparatively
narrow, and speculation failed to reach
anything like the volume recorded yester-
day. The gallery was packed with ex-
pectant oniookers all day, Reports that
European shorts had effected a long
sought-for settlement took the snap out

WORRIES THE BRITONs.
Run of Deutsch-

LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE remarkable
run of the Hamburg-American line
steamship Deutschland is exciting great
interest in England and there is much
complaint because British are thus dis
tanced in the speed competition.
The Daily Chronicle points out the
danger that in times of war, British
trade would be at the mercy of such
swift commerce desr0yers and says that
the government and nation must look to
it.
The Cunard line manager, when inter.
viewed yesterday said: There is no
doubt that Germany is alive to the value
of such fast vessels III the event of war:
and the benevolent attitude Of the Ger
man government has been largely in
strumental in stimulating their produc-
ton. 1t is all a question Of cost. Elk
perience has proved that there is no
finality in speed development. The Gu
nard line has its eyes fully open to the

WILKESBARRE, Pa, Sept. 1.-THE
excitement over the threatened strike of

QUEEN LII AN AMERICAN.
Shows Her Allegiance to the United
States.

HAWAII, Sept. 4-Queen Lifiuokalani
took occasion on her siXty-second birth
day, Sept. l. to give the natives another
lesson in American patriotism. during
the celebration and concert at the queens
residence, she arose when the STAR
Spangled Banner" was played and kept
her seat during the playing of the Ha-
waiian national anthem. This action
greatly surprised the natives. It was the
queens way Of showing that the Star
Spangled Banner was the national
anthem in Hawaii and not the old Ha-
waiian hymn. This action may have
good deal of political effect, as reply
from the queen to these natives who are
urging the organization Of the indie
pendent party with the idea that the re-
storation of the monarchy is still a pos
sibility.

There was no special attempt to get
the figures of the enemy's loss. The dead
were simply buried as quickly as possible,
and the Chinese started along the Pekin
road with what wounded they could look
after. There were about 1000 of these.
