saves many letters from being sent to the Dead Letter office. The worst mistake people make is in thinking they are allowed to send a letter if it is not sealed for 1 cent. A letter is first class mail matter, whether sealed or not. Only circulars can be mailed under a 1-cent stamp. We often have to notify the ad- dressee to send us a cent in order to forward his letter. 1 am asked many funny questions, but I never get tired of the children calling. They all know me and most of them are very polite and pleasant. A post office is a splendid place to study human nature.

From M. B. Russell.

San Isadro, P. l., Apr. 1, 1901. DEAR TRIBUNE READERs: No doubt it was a surprise to many of my friends to learn that I, did not return to the states with my regiment, which sailed on the first of last month, but neverthe- less 1 have not done so.
 made application for my dis charge here, prior to the sailing of my regiment and it was gram ted. 1 am now in the employ of the Quartermaster's Department of Northern Luzon. It had not really been my intention to re- main on the islands but every thing seemed so promising, I de- cided at the last moment to stay, butt do not know how long will stay here, but health permitting, l am liable to stay for some time. At present am in good health and the boys say am getting fat.
 shall not again enter the ser- vice, as I have much better chan ces as civilian. My work is very light and is much better pay than I could hope to get in the states. Honorably dischar ged soldiers have a preferance in all departments.
 Everything is very quiet here at present. Only very few bands of rowing insurgents are to be found and our troops give them but little rest. The situa- tion is by far better than at any time since I have been here. With the capture of Agunaldo, the war is practically over. The insurgents are coming in every day, surrendering their rifles and taking the oath of allegiance.
 A letter from any of my friends at any time will be greatly appre- ciated. 1 will write again.

Will extend the road.

Eureka Springs, May 2O.- A full complement of men and equipment under J. B., Dalton, assistant chief engineer of the St. Louis & North Arkansas rail- road, are assembling in Harrison, preparatory to taking the field to- day to run surveys for the build- ing of the last so miles of road, as provided under their charter.
 Two lines of survey will be run. One leaves the main line four miles west of Harrison, keeping the divide to Sugar Orchard, thence south along Hampton creek and continuing in south- easterly direction through the low pass in the Boston mountains east of Marshall and terminating near Wiley's Cove. The other is projected from Harrison through Bellefonte, Valley Springs and St. Joe, terminating at the same point as the survey first described.
 It is certain that the road will follow one of these routes, either of which would pass through the heart of the mineral region, bringing all the important mines of Boone, Marion and Searcy counties within it's territory.
 Progress in building has been delayed pending adjustment and settlement with the contractors for the division recently complet- ed to Harrison.
 Chief Engineer Lee states that the field corps will go over the survey that has been made from Harrison 60 miles southeast to a point near Wiley's Cove, in Scar cy county, via Belle Fonte and St. Joe. It will also survey a projected route to the same des- tlnation, beginning at a point several miles this side of Harri son, following the ridge to Sugar Orchard, crossing Crooked creek at Powell, and south to St. Joe via Bruno. It will be the busi- ness of this party, under the di- rection of the engineer, to follow the routes closely with 8 view to selecting the one which shall prove the most advantageous.
 The intention of the company is to finish the work of construc- tion as soon as the survey is de- cided upon by the surveying party.

TEACHERS MUST ATTEND.
Law Requires Their presence at
 Institutes Held by Examiner.


 Superintendent J J. Doyne of the statedepartment of education gives out the following answer to an inquiry which will be of gen eral interest, as the attorney gen. eral concurs in the superintend- ent's views.
 ''In reply to your letter I have this to say:
 Section 7O73 as amended by act of 1895 reads as follows:
 It shall be the duty of all the teachers of the public schools to attend one institute annually, which shall be held by the county examiner, after having given twenty days notice of the time and place of the institute in the same manner as is now required by law for quarterly examina- tions.
 You will note from this that the county examineris is required to hold at least one institute an- nually, and that teachers are re- quired to attend the same. X law without penalty would be a dead letter. l am, therefore, of the opinion that the county examiner would be authorized to revoke the license of any teacher who failed to attend the institute of which he had due notice, un- less the teacher is able to present. satisfactory reason for failure to attend. However no license should be revoked till the teacher against whom such action is con- templated has been given due no- tice and a chance given him to appear before the examiner and show cause for failure to meet the requirements of the law. In support of this view I would refer you to the opinion rendered F the supreme court of our statoy the case of Huff vs. Lee, fou in the 6fst Arkansas, p9dnd in where is held that the1age 494, 7O13, Sandels and-57 law (Sec. which provides thHill's digesD, may revoke alat the examiner for immoraliteacher's license CT other y, incompetency leaving it adequate causes,' decide aso the examiner to stitute to what shall con- unless itdequate causes, and / isfactioran be shown to the sat- I- aminer of the court that the ex 7b- ward tas acted with malice tohall be con teacher his action shfood faith, dered as taken in gGable for nd he shall not be lifuence thereamages in conseqy

THE SCHOOL ELECTION.
Three Directors Elected and a
 Five Mill Tax Voted.

Three Directors Elected and a
 Five Mill Tax Voted.
 The annual school election oc- cured last Saturday and vote almost double that of any previous election was boiled. The mass meeting was held at 9:30 a. m. and the report and recommends tions of the board of directors > submitted.
 The report summarized the ex- penses of the district for the past year, showing 'thatthere had been an expenditure of S628 for teach CTS wages, a S70 payment made on school house site and about S65 expended for repairs, janitor, fuel, seats, etc.
 The board estimated that the state appoftionment and five mill tax would raise about S760 for school purposes next year.
 At 10 o'clock the polls were opened and a lively contest en- sued which resulted in the selec- ton of J. M. Jernigan and G. R. Blasingame for three years and c. II. Smith for one year. The vote stood as follows:
 J. M. Jernigan 88.
 G. R. Blasingame 80.
 c. H. Smith 88.
 c. B. Grim 52.
 G. V. Poynor g.
 E. Wise 90.
 For 5 mill tax 97.
 Against tax 14.
 Scattering 29.
 The result of the election clears the way for the selection of a new principal as it is the announced intention of a majority of the new board to employ some other than Prof. Burney for that place. The effect of the retirement of Prof. Burney on the school re- mains to be seen. For the past seven years he has labored un- tiringly to build up school at this place and his supporters be- ieved it unwise to retire him.
 THE TRIBUNE does not gloat over victory, neither does it cow CT under defeat and the new board will have our unstinted support in all things that will be for the common interests of the district. If any one has griev- ance, 1t should be laid aside and a pull altogether made to keep our district in the front ral.k.
 Among the important questions that the new board will have to deal with is the building of 8 school house. At the election two years ago the district author ized, by vote, the directors to buy 8 more suitable site than the one where the present building stands and to sell the old building to the best advantage. The site was purchased and an effort made to negotiate loan in order to build, but 1t was found that directors had no authority, under the law, to mortgage property in order to secure loan. The last legisla- ture was petitioned by the electors of the district to pass a special act enabling the Green Forest Special District to mortgage it's property for building purposes. The act has just recently become a law and no trouble should now be had in obtaining a loan. These things necessarily move a little slow, but under the pres- ent status of affairs the new board can move right out, and we hope to see the new building in progress before the summer IS gone.

OF East Ohio Gas
Company

Although the East Ohio Gas Co.
has not vet completed plans for the
coming seasons work of extending
lines. and laying new lines, it gives
assurance that from spring until fall
it will be busily engaged in preparing
for new and increasing business.
During the season the company WILL

lines by the demands of citizens. If
on streets not piped, sufficient num-
ber of citizens desire gas, lines will
be laid. The company will anticipate
the usual fall rush of business and
make all preparations to meet It,.
While not all the residents on streets
that are piped are users of gas, the
majority are, and the company ex-
poets a large increase in patrons
along these streets. next year.
There has been no lack in the sup
ply of gas this winter, and the com,
pany has faith in prospects for future
good records.
