Mr.. Cooper will present the follow

said Indians coded the said reservat-
ion to the United States with the
understanding that the reservations
would be surveyed, that the ''pine
lands" thereon would be estimated
and offered for sale to the highest
bidder in 40-acre tracts and that all
other lands except such as might he
allotted to individual Indians should
be regarded as agricultural lands and
sold to actual settlers in tracts of not
exceeding 100 acres at $1.25 per acre
| but on homestead law conditions and

deducting the expense of surveying,
estimating, etc, should be paid into

prove equally as advantageous and
acceptable to said Chippewa Indians
to pay them for said lands in bulk

be to have the same sold in separate
tracts with liability of the pine soon

said reservations shall be perpetually
held as a national park il is expected
that the forests thereof will be man

MT. AIRY GRADED SCHOOLS.
Closing Exercises of Year of Most Successful
Work

(Spccial to the News & Observer
Mount Airy. n. c., June 1.-THE Mount
Airy CITY Schools closed the present
school year on June 1st having COM
Melted the most successful year in their
history. The commencement exercises at
this place on Thursday and Friday night
of last week far surpassed anything oil
the kind ever witnessed by Mount AIRY
audience The high position which the
schools hold in Mount Airy, and the SUR
rounding country, was fully attested by
the overlooking audience which was pres
ent both evenings. Long before the eX-
ercises began great crowds OF people
were on their way to the opera house, and
those who went late were unable to OBJ
tain seats. The excellence of the eXer-
cises evidenced the superior training the
children had received at the hands OF
their teachers, and the manner in which
they conducted themselves, alone, COM

a way as to remove all doubt from The
minds of those present as to the high
character of the work done in the

Voices of the Woods" and the play, my
Lord in Livery"
One could scarcely wish for prettier
sight than that presented by the eleven
young ladies' the embodiment of grace
and the poetry of motion, who SO per-
fectly executed the beautiful pantomine.
For the training of which credit is wholly
due Miss Elizabeth Greasy, who also rem
dered valuable assistance in other ways.
Miss Greasy is successful teacher of
elocution and of the Delsarte system and
has an interesting class of private pupils.
1t is doubtful if more enjoyable entertain
ments have been given in a long time.
The pupils have reflected great credit
upon themselves and upon the school by
the excellence of the entertainments
given.
The graded school is the pride of the
town and is doing a great work in the
education of the youth. The course OF
study stands second to that of no other
graded school in the State and the high
stand taken by the young men and wo-
men who go from here to the University
and colleges Of the State fully attests the
character of the work done. Every citi
zen of Mount Airy has a perfect right to
the pride he feels in our graded schools.
Superintendent Frank Fl. Cprtiss and
his fine corps of teachers have greatly
endeared themselves to the patrons of
the graded schools by their superior
work during the past year. Superinten-
dent Curtiss easily merits the high rank.
which he holds. as one of the leading
educators and lecturers on educational
topics in North Carolina, and has main
tanned in most admirable manner, the
prestige which commended him to the
school board of our town. all of which is
evidenced by the fact of his unanimous
reelection as superintendent of our
schools. notwithstanding the fact that
he has had several fiattering offers made
him at other places in North Carolina and
elsewhere, his enthusiastic interest in the
schools of Mount Airy was so great that
he declined these offers to remain in
charge of the schools here-which fact
is fully appreciated by our citizens.

THE HOUSE ON ITS METTLE.
A Hot Fight on About the Item of Coast
Surveys.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington. June 6.-The House to-
night at 1920 took recess until lo
o'clock tomorrow morning. The two
chambers of the National Legislature
were in desperate struggle over the
item in the Naval Appropriation Bill re-
lating to ocean surveys The final adj
journment of Congress is postponed until
it is over.
The proceedings in the House during
the day were tame and without dramatic
incident. But tonight the House got it's
dander UP Ger the failure of its con-
ferees to abide by their instructions on
the ocean survey item and after an ex-
ceedingly sensational debate, in which
Mr. Cancnn, the Chairman of the APP
preparations Committee, made some
startling disclosure as to the manner in
which Commander Todd, the photographer
Of the navy, had waged his campaign
against the stand taken by the House
in favor of the Coast and Geodetic Sur
vey work, the House rejected the confer
cnce report by an. overwhelming majority
and the Speaker took the almost
unrrecedcntcd course of appointing new
c0DfcreeS.
The conferees defended their course as
best they could, and Mr.. Foss, acting
chairman of the committee resented with
bitter language the charge that he had
betrayed the House. Hot words were
banded back and forth, but the House
was in an ugly mood and was resolved to
fight the Senate to finish.
The appointment as conferees of Mr..
Cannon, Mr.. Moody, and Mr.. Shafroth, all
of whom are in sympathy with the
Houses petition assures no surrender
on their part until the House itself shall
direct them to yield.
When the House e-assembled at p.
m. the conference report on the General
Deficiency Bill showing complete agree
ment was agreed to.
Mr. Cannon submitted the conference
report on the Sundry Civil Bill showing
tho item carrying the claims of Nevada
10 be the only one in dispute. The item
for the memorial bridge across the Poto-
mae River was struck out. The provision
as to the State claims was compromised
by an amendment that certain Federal
claims against those States would not be
prosecuted.
Mr.. Cannon explained that the Senate

EXPLODING CAN OF KEROSENE
Sets Fire 10 -Four Houses and Burns a
Man.

Special to Leader.
Parkersburg, w. Va, Oct 4.-The
imprudence of Ellis Schultz was the
cause of confagration at o'clock
this afternoon, which while it lasted,
was the signal for the gathering of an
immense concourse of people.
Ellis Schultz. who lives on Camden
street. had the foolhardiness to set
fire to a can OF kerosene. The natural
result was an explosion, which threw
the burning liquid over Schultz, giving
him painful, but not serious, burns on
the body. A house was ignited by the
blazing oil and in a short time four
houses went up in flames. The city
fire department was unable TO reach
the scene of the confiagration, as the
houses were situated outside of the
corporation line. A large crowd of
people was collected in a short while
The fire after consuming the four
houses, was finally gotten under con-
troll.
