THE STATE SCHOOL.
The Attendance is Larger and in Some
Cases Difficulty is Found to Ac-
commodate Students.

Things are moving rapidly these days at
the Minnesota State School of AgricuI-
ture The school opened last week with a
largely increased attendance and the pro-
fessors, the principal and the dean are
buster than ever before. The large at
tendance calls for larger plans,-that
which would suffice two years ago, in the
last century, will not do for the twentieth
century.
The classes are very large and the pro-
fessors are finding it difficult to accom-
modate them in some instances to the
best advantage Professor Robertson who
has heretofore conducted classes In ply
sizes and botany, will hereafter have more
time to devote to the former study, as w.
"A. wheeler, former student of the
school, later a graduate of the university,
and for some time doing work under Pro-
fessor Mcmillan, will now take the botany
classes. He will also teach entomology
and zoology temporarily until a successor
TO the late Professor Lugger is selected.
In the department devoted to manual
training. the pressure for space has been
great. The old accommodations were all
too small for the crowds knocking at Pro-
lessor Drew's door. The shop for home
piackSmltnlng has been extended some
tnlrty feet SO there are now forty-four
forges, and these are all too close to one
another. An elaborate direct draft and
exhaust system has been installed, so
that the smoke from all the FORCES is
drawn off while the student is at work,
and, at the same time, his forge has a
steady draft of air automatically play
Ing upon it and regulated at will by a
simple slide device.
Inc classes are now SO large that an
amphltheater has been built in one end
OF the shop, one part of which, so great
Is the pressure for space, is on hinges and
can be swung up to the ceiling when the
forges are in use. In front of this ampi-
theater Professor Drew demonstrates be-
fore the class all the various kinds of
work to be done by the students them
selves, the making of every manner Of
metal tool or implement in need about
the farm

ten millions greater than the assessment
OF last winter. The bulk of the increase
falls on corporations and the moneyed in
terests.
Inc assessments returned by the county
boards this year foot up s123. $685. 73O. Twen-
ty-n1ne counties have been checked up,
and show net increase imposed by the

bly, reach seven million.

Tar and Feathers.

One of the CrookSton hotels was the
scene of patriotic demonstration a
few evenings ago which rivals any
thing that has taken place in the
northwest. One of the girls employed
in the hotel, dishwasher, has anar-
chistic tendencies, and her complacency
regarding the fate of President Nc
Kinley, together with her open express
sion of sympathy for Czolgosz, got her
into serious trouble.
She was warned by the other girls
in the hotel that she would be treated
to a coat of tar and feathers if she did
not stop making remarks about the
late president and Czolgosz. She per-
sisted in her remarks, and one evening,
after the days work had been COM
pleted, the dining-room force, rein
forced by other girl employees in the
house, broke open the door of the Of
Tending girls room and proceeded to
apply the promised coat of tar and
feathers
One of the girls seized chair and
threatened to brain the sympathizer
of the assassin, but was restrained.
Some of the chambermaids rallied to
the aid of the anarchist and fierce
fight ensued Hair was oE led out,
gowns torn to tatters an. several faces
scratched, but finally the attacking
