TEACHERS CHOSEN.
Board of Education Also Buys
Site for New School Building.

There was an important meeting of
the Board of Education of the Oska-
loosa district Monday afternoon. The
teachers who will fill positions in the
schools next year were elected but
will not be assigned to place until a
later meeting. Another important
transaction Of the Board was the pur-
chase of piece of property that will
become a site for a school building in
the future. By unanimous vote of
the Board the school district bought
lots No. /, 2, 8, 10, Is and II, block 1,
in Southside, for a school house site.
These lots are located between what
would be First and Market streets if
extended, and face the first street
running east and west, south of the
Iowa Central tracks. They make the
east half of a block, it being the agree
ment that the alley will be vacated.
This location for a school house IS
ideal. Owing to the location of fac
tories and for other reasons, Southside
is enjoying quite an influx of poPula-
ton. A school building will not go
up ia the immediate future, but it was
thought quite advisable to purchase
a site while there was room to choose
and prices were reasonable. The
consideration was 81 900 on deferred
payments at percent.
The following is the list of teachers
elected for the next school year, the
matter of assignments and salaries to
be determined later, excepting the
first and second names already passed
upon:
S. j. Finley, superintendent.
VIM. Solomon, instructor in music.

ought to appeal to the temperance

Blbl1ologists have long speculated

OF a runting party. recently returned
from the Bad Lands, that would lead TO
the conclusion hat not all of the great
ceuars used in the construction of the

plorers claim that in the CANYONS of the

OF the Sioux Indians red cedar logs for

these logs are from fifty to seventy

greatly excited over the disappearance
OF n of their tribe, and claim that he
was killed by some white hunter who
shot him by mistake, taking him for a
deer and then fled. They are search

killed by a white man and are de-
termined on vengeance.
