Before becoming IA success, the boy,
figuratively speaking, must be made
over. He must be revised and put
through a course OF training. Hard
work and plenty Of activity are essen
tial TO his success.
SUPERINTENDENT WILLIAMS.
Superintendent Williams talked en-
tertainingly on English Literature. "
One of the great works of the teach
er is to teach the pupil to know for
himself when he knows the lesson. A
child naturally expresses himself in
sentences. Teach the child the proper
use of the dictionary-teach him the
use of synonyms.
Every fact, everybody, everything, is
subordinate or coordinate to some
thing else. Grammar is the science Of
the sentence-not the science of the
language, and it begins with the sent
ence. When finished the contents of
the book should be yours-master IT,

At the Park Opera House.

A more gratifying house could not
have been desired by Manager Haskell
than that which greeted Hoyt's "a Black
Sheep" at the Park opera house Satur-
day night. The entire downstairs was
we'll nlled, with large crowd in the gal
lery. 1t was an audience that had come
under the spell of the magic name of
Hoyt, as playwright, knowing full we'll
that they would receive the worth OF
their money.
Tho play taken as a whole was quite
satisfactory, although it did not meet tho
expectations of all. "The Milk White
Flag" which was played here had 30
whetted the appetites of the people that,
nothing commonplace would answer as a
production and their ranticipations were
rather higher than were realized.
"a Black Sheep" follows the model Of
fun which all Hoyt's plays follow, but
aside from the character part taken by
Bill Devere, was not beyond the ordin-
ary. Devere captured the audience in
his part of the editor of the "Tom bstone
Inscription" and he was thoroughly en-
joyed.
The disappointment came in the vaude-
vile parts. There was nothing especial
ly good in this. There have been many
less heralded plays that have had much
better vaudeville performers. In the
first place there were no first class vocal
ists. The voices OF the women were Of
the same general brokeness found in the
average music hall.
There are better things OF Hoyts, than
are travelling with "a Black Sheep"

Thanksgivi' & day he was united in mar
rage to Miss Georgia White, who for
many years has been the Western Union
telegraph operator in this city and who
still holds that position,
The deceased began to fail shortly af-
ter his marriage and while not confined
to his home, has not been able to do any
work Of a severe nature since. He as
sist I'd his wife in the duties OF the Wes-
tern Union Office in this city and was
we'll known in the business community.
About two weeks ago he began to fail
quite rapidly and it was not great sur
prise to his many friends to hear of his
death.
1t has been decided to ship the body
east to be buried at his old homo in
Brooklyn, New York. His sister, Miss
Sarah JONES' who was here at the time
of his death, will accompany the body.
A short service was held this after.
noon at the house at 3 o'clock by Rev.
Martin of the Baptist church.
OF the immediate family wife alone is
left to mourn his untimely death. The
deceased was twenty eight years Of age
and Just in manhood's prime. The
afflicted wife has the sympathy Of the
entire community.

painter, under singular circumstances
today. Green, in company with Miss
Kittie Mackridge to whom ne was en-
gagged. had stopped in the course OF a

snap shot of coming train. Green

the young lady to shade his eyes while
arranging the camera. johnson, with
some friends had been testing a new

800 yards.
The bullet went true to its mark and
crashed into Green's brain. The un-
fortunate man fell backward into the
arms OF his atfianced and expired almost
instantly. When johnson learned the

BULLETIN NO. 3.

We find that for some reason the far
mers in the valley have not as yet begun
to deliver their beets In any considerable
quantity.
Under our agreement with them we
ordered in the beets this year at the
earliest possible moment starting about
the Goth of September and up to this
date, the 18th OF October, we have only
received about 1900 tons of beets
We feel that it is necessary to urge
upon the farmers the fact that they are
injuring themselves and also the Sugar
Company by not making every effort to
hurry in the beets when ordered.
We hoped to open the factory about
the 5th Of October, but find it will be
the 18th before We can possibly get
started. When we do start every farm
mer should be actually at work in order
to avoid the necessity of closing down.
This is doubly serious matter to us as
the Ditch Company desires to close
down on the water before it will be pos
sible for US to work up the beets when
they are 30 slow in coming in.
On reading this notice we want to ask
every farmer to put fortb every effort to
deliver their beets to US without delay.
Respectfully,
The Colorado Sugar Mfg. Co.

Youtsey Paralyzed.

Georgetown, KY, Oct, 14.-When the
case OF the commonwealth against Henry
Youtsey was called this afternoon, DR..
Garrick testified under oath that Yout-
sey's brain is partially paralyzed; that he
could not talk or entertain ideas; that
it was case OF mental breakdown or
nervous prostration The common
wealth s-questioned him on the idea
Youtsey was shaming, and DR.. Garrick
said that if Youtsey was he (Garrick) as
a physician could not detect it.
DIR. j. A. Lewis, who has seen Youtsey
several times since his collapse, said
Youtsey WAS in a semi conscious state
whenever he saw him, and he could get
no response to his questions. He said it
might be several days before Youtsey
would regain consciousness, and If he
did regain it and then be subjected to
the excitement of the trial it might bring
on another attack He said his physical
condition seemed normal, except that his
pulse was 80 and his eyes closed with
the pupils contracted slightly.
DR.. D. b. Knox, who had examined
Youtsey oftener than DR.. Lewis, corro-
borated Drs. Lewis and Garrick.
Judge Cantrill in deciding to continue
the case until Monday, said Youtsey ha6
not had fair chance to recover, as there
had been too much noise and confusion
in his room, and directed the doctors to
keep every body out OF his room except
tho nurses and guard.

GETTING INTERESTING.
The BaIIotins in the Merchants
Piono Contest is Causing
Considerable Rivalry.

The result of the sixth count in the
Merchants Piano contest shows the same
three organizations leading which were
ahead in the last count, and in the same
order. The Elks are first, the Womans
Library Association second and the Odd
Fellows, third. The vote for each of
these organization has been raised by
close to Thousand since the last count
was made.
The interest is growing among the
members and friends of the various or
ganizations represented, and each time a
count is made some new lodge appears
on tho list OF contestants. This fact di-
vides the votes and keeps one guessing
as to the result
A request has been made by the one
who counts the ballots that the name OF
the organization for which the ballot is
cast be written across the face OF the
coupon slip instead Of on the back OF
same. Either is perfectly valid but the
REQUEST is made for the convenience of
the counter.
II the votes continue to increase with
each count as they have been doing it
will require considerable hustling to
keep in the race. The last count shows

bulk. Since then something like $4,000
has accumulated in his hands. and we
presume that he will turn that over
TO the treasury department when It
suits his convenience. But even under
such favorable conditions due to
the honest disposition of the
secretary OF state the law
is defective. With the state
treasurer bonded in the sum Of S125. 900
and the secretary Of state Civ
ing bond of but $4,000,
it is not right or business-like for the
law to permit the secretary Of state to
hold back such fees until they reach
s69,OOO or anything approaching that
sum. Settlements should be made semi
monthly or monthly.

derived from the operation of the state
insurance law exceed the expense of
its execution by about $4,000, which
does not include any revenue from the
loan association law; and that the de-
partment has passed the experimental
stage and also that the office has be-
come one Of prime importance in its
financial as well as its executive and
inQuisitorial features.
BY the bursting OF this Republic Saw
ings and Loan Association bubble the
weakness and incompetency Of the
State insurance commissioner are ex-
posed. Not only the victims of that
bubble but all the other citizens are
alarmed that such condition should
exist in a department Of our State gov
ernment which was instituted to stand
between them and the insurance and
loan associations and to protect them
in their holdings. That alarm will
lead TO a reform long needed, for it is
safe to assume that in future the state
insurance commissioner will be com
petent man who has an intimate ac-
quainatnce with the business Of Insur-
ance companies and loan associations
and who, while absolutely just in his
dealings with all such concerns, will
compel them to live up to the law, es-
peclally in its protective features.
