For New School Building.

The electors of Mineral Point city
are called upon to decide whether or
not the city shall be bonded to the
extent of $4,000 to provide additional
room for our schools. There is no
difference of opinion as to the need
Tor more and better rooms to accom-
tmodate and improve our schools, and
there should be no doubt of the car
rying of the proposition submitted.
While many believe that Z larger
sum will be found necessary to pro-
vide the new bnilding suggested ard
to properly remodel and re-equip the
old ones, the common council and
the school board have decided that
$l1 900 will meet demands, and that
sqm may be safely appropriated.
This proposition should carry by a
positive majority, and If few years
later 1t is found that $1,000 or $4,000
more is needed for repairs and inn
provements of old buildings, nothing
will have been lost.

Paris.-A tragic incident occurred
at the college of France when a
young Russian girl student, Vera

just concluded lecture on French

one of the audience, fred a revolver
at him. Her friend, another Russian

riticed herself by intervening, receiv-
ing bullet in the chest and fell at

rule in effect on the occasion of the
