Our Schools Again.

Again we wish to call the immedi-
ate attention of our school board to
the absolute necessity of providing
suitable rooms for the accommodation
of our children.
Some members of the board seem to
think because the people voted down
the propositions submitted to them
at the spring election that they are
not in favor of providing suitable
rooms and appliances for the educa-
tion Of the children of the district.
Such conclusion on the part of any
member of the board does great in
justice to our people and is far from
the fact.
We insisted last spring on the board
submitting another proposition at the
same time they submitted the other,
and we still believe it to be the only
solution Of the troublesome matter,
and the only proposition that will
carry. That is to vote or 10 thous-
and dollar bonds or whatever it may
take to buy suitable site in the 4th
ward and erect a four room brick
thereon for primary grades, and also
TO complete the building in the End
ward.
We absolutely must have more room
in the 4th ward. Already the econ
omists are beginning to agitate again
the idea of renting Music Hall for the
coming year. That surely would be a
bad move and false economy.
Now won't our honorable school
board pull themselves together once
and give the people chance to vote
on this reasonable proposition? The
people demand it ard the wants are
imperative, and the time for com.
plotting the buildings short.

The Best Remedy for rheumatism.

Ali who use Chamberlain's Pain
Balm for rheumatism are delighted
with the quick relief from pain which
1t affords. When speaking of this Mr..

of rheumatism IN my arm and shout

Distressing Death.

Last Wednesday evening number
of the younger boys Of the locality
gathered on their play ground on
some vacant lots back of Geo. North
rup's residence for their usual evening
exercise. During the play several
larger boys threw themselves onto
little Homer Dyer, boy about eight
years old, and handled him so roughly
that their treatment resulted in his
death Sunday night.
Homer went home and, from all we
can learn, made no particular com
plant of being hurt, and went to
school the next morning, but during
the day took sick and went home and
soon became unconscious, in which
condition he remained, unless at one
short interval, till death ended his
suffering Sunday night.
We don't know what boys were en-.
gagged in the business but learn there
were several of them and that they
were much larger boys than the little
Dyer boy. OF course the boys had no
thought of inflicting such terrible in
jurles, but there is no possible excuse
for such rough treatment Of small
boy by larger ones.
The whole community sympathizes
with the Dyers in this affection and
censures unmeasuredly the boys, who
in their thoughtlessness, did this
thing.

In a circus and managerle that was
wintering in Kansas, was large os-
trich that was possessed of a promis-
cuous and entirely indiscriminate ap-
petite. The ostrich swallowed with
apparent relish several old shoes, tin
cans and other brlc-a-brac until final
ly he tackled strand of barbed wire
which did him up. And when the
keeper of the ostrich found the bird
nearly dead with the end of strand
of barb wire sticking out of its mouth
he said: II see, you fool, that you

A Pardon For Nellie Wright.

(Richmond Special to Washington Post. }
Governor Daniel L. RUSSELL of North

for the pardon of Nellie Wright, a wo-

sentenced from the Richmond Hastings
Court in 1889 for IS years for murder in
the second degree. According to infor-
nation received here, the woman, during
the IL years of her imprisonment, has
made for herself a bad conduct record,
though her reputation prior to the muir

was good.

Wright, and he is said to have sent to
Governor Tyler a petition signed by re-

clemency. Governor Russell sent a let

HAWAII NEEDS $4,000 MEN.
Sugar Planters Will Try to Secure Hands in
This Country.

Thirty thousand men are needed imme-
diately in Hawaii by the sugar planters,
and efforts are being made to secure the
men in this country.
So great is the demand for hands that
the planters will spend an enormous sum
in this country to secure them Repre-
sentative of the Hawaiian sugar men
have opened an office in New York and
are engaged in securing men. One OF
these agents said to a New York World
reporter:
"When the United States took over
Hawaii the planters knew they would
have to let the Chinese and Japanese Ia
borers go, and they were rather glad of
it. The men of Asia cannot work as we'll
as the Europeans. One sturdy white man
can do more work than three yellow
men,
1.-The planters expected that there would
be a rush of men from the United States
to the islands, and so they let most of
their workmen go But men did not go
to the islands from the United States
and the sugar planters are in a bad way
for hands.
Fifteen thousands are needed immedi-
ately and fifteen thousand more will be
needed inside of year. We pay a man S
fare out there and provide him with food
and good accommodations while he is
travelling. In Hawaii man is required
to work ten hours a day and we pay
him $22 a month and provide him with
good board, lodging and medical attend
ance. Overtime is paid for
1--WE especially want men with fami-
lies and any man who wants to take
a wife with him may do so and we will
pay her fare. We will also defray the
travelling expenses of their children. Wo-
men may work if they wish and their
pay will be SIS a month and board and
lodging. Children who ere able to worR
will get $40 a month. The planters hope
to populate the island.
''The Asiatics eat rice almost exclusive
ly, don't care for meat. Well, as workers
they cannot compare with the meat-eat
ing Europeans. The yellow man tarts
out all right in the morning and lasts till
about 10 o'clock and then gets weak. His
little meal of rice can't give him strength
to last through the day Three hundred
meat-eaters are worth almost as much
as thousand rice-e eaters"
