DumOnt'S Triumph.

Public opinion will universally
sanction the award by the Paris
Aero club of the Deutsch prize OF
100000 francs to Santos Dumont,
the Brazilian aeronaut, who has
fairly won the money and deserved
it too besides. The terms under
whicn the prize was offered were
that the airship should start from
St. Cloud, sail around the Eiffel
tower and return to the starting
point within thirty minutes. The
prize was at first withheld from
Dumont because, notwithstanding
he made the round trip within the
specified time, with some seconds
to spare, he failed to let the end of
his dragrope touch the earth at st.
Cloud within the time limit. In
stead of descending at once he de-
toured round about from the pro-
posed landing place and then re-
turned to it. The first half of the
trip was made with the wind, the
second half dead against it. 1t
was the second half that proved
the practicability of a dirigible or
steerable balloon.
DumOnt's experiments and sue
cesses have had the effect of great
ly stimulating the desire to fly,
and hundreds of persons in Europe
and not a few in this country,
have tackled the problem of aerial
navigation with renewed hope of
success. 1t was Mr.. Edison, we
think, who predicted a year or so
ago that men would be flying
through the air at will before the
first quarter of the new century
had passed. Dumont's expert
ments and EdisOn's new storage
battery may aid in setting the
world a-wing in the air before the
first. half of the period has elapsed.

Size of Bassinger Families.

Bassinger seems to be an ideal place
for raising large families, says the kis-
simmee Valley Gazette. 1t is only a
frontier settlement as yet, lying in the
heart of the great inland prairie range,
but there is no danger of the population
diminishing. Among the families living
there: Bill Chandler has boys and
girls, Gus Hunter has boys and 6 girls,
Bob LaMartin has 3 boys and 8 girls,
Alf Campbell has9 boys and 8 girls, Noah
Raulerson, Jr., has boys and girls, w.
NJ. Underhill has boys and girls, a to-
tai in the six families of 80 boys and 80
girls-7I children in all-making an av-
erage of II children to each family. Bas-
singer challenges any place of equal size
in the state TO match these domestic
figures.

The interdependence of states in
the matter of game laws may be
illustrated by one or two examples.
The New England states, without
exception, protect the robin, but
their efforts can never produce the
best results 80 long as the bird is
treated as game during its winter
sojourn. True we don't hear of
robins being killed here in South
Florida much because there are
plenty of other game birds, but in
many parts of the south they are
really killed for market.
Eastern cities now obtain their
supplies of quail, prairie chicken,
and other game very largely from
distant states in the west. Nebras-
ka, for instance, now finds that her
quail are being rapidly killed off to
supply the markets of Philadelphia
and other eastern cities; and for
her own protection prohibits the
shipment of birds from the state
Pennsylvania finds that her supply
of quail is entirely inadequate to
meet the local demand, and de-
clares law that birds taken with
in the state shall not be sold at any
time.
The Philadelphia game dealers
contend that this law cannot re-
strict sales of game brought in from
other states and accordingly sup
ply their customers in season and
out with imported birds kept on
cold storage.
High prices stimulate their agents
in Nebraska to evade the shipping
law, and their country correspond
ents in Pennsylvania to ignore the
local law; and the native birds
when placed on sale cannot be dis
tinguished from those which are
imported. Game preservation in
Pennsylvania thus becomes dOubly
difficult.
Under the operation of non-ex-
port laws the supply of quail from
the west is diminished, prices very
naturally go up high and prem
ium is placed on the destruction of
native birds. Unless the state can
enforce the law in regard to
imported game she cannot effect
ually protect her own birds.

Domestic Servant Trouble.

The house servant trouble seems
to be spreading. Even the people
in Mexico are worried with it, as
the Herald, of the City of Mexico,
says: Zone of my servants who
lives at home came to me the other
day." said a prominent American
lady of the city yesterday, land
said that hereafter it would be nec-
essary for her to have five hours
for her midday siesta. She said
that she was unable to do every
thing she wanted in a mere three
hours which she had been in the
habit of taking, and when I oppos-
ed granting her request she said
that it would be all right, she
would resign from her work"
In many other instances they
have begun to require liberties,
such as asking for half holidays for
three days each week, and in case
of refusal resign their positions.
Some months ago the newspapers
were full of the trouble with girls
in cigarette factory in the City
of Mexico, when they demanded
and received greater pay and short
er hours. This incident seems to
have raised the personal opinions
of all the servants in the city. The
only cure for this servant girl trou-
BILE is for the American people
to cultivate the new French Gus
tom of Corinthianism, which really
means to do your own work, no
matter whether at home or visiting
your friends, this will bring the
servants to time if anything will,
as long as we are dependent upon
them the servant trouble will grow
worse and worse.

Special Tax District Funds.

State Superintendent of PUBLIC
instruction w. N. Sheats has just
issued somewhat lengthy letter of
instruction to county superintend-
ents and boards of public instruc-
tion in regard to the handling and
reporting of special tax school dis
trio. funds in order to secure q
more thorough understanding of
the law regarding the handling of
these funds and to effect uniformi-
ty and accuracy in reporting the
same.
All funds now in the hands of
special tax district trustees must
be at once turned over to the coun-
ty treasurers, and county superin-
tendents will report to the state
superintendent all trustees failing
to comply with this order.
The letter goes on TO state that
expenditure of these funds may be
only by warrant of the county
board of public instruction. The
fund set apart by the estimate of
the trustees for the payment of
teachers shall be added to the
amount apportioned for that pur-
pose from the county fund, and this
amount shall be made the basis for
the determination of length of
term and salaries.
The part of this fund arising from
the special tax shall be paid to the
teachers upon the order of the coun-
ty board based upon reports ap-
proved by trustees, the same as
other school funds are paid upon
the Endorsement of school super
visors. Special tax funds so ap-
portioned for the payment of teach
ers shall not be used for any other
purpose upon the requisition of
trustees or otherwise. Special tax
funds apportioned for other educa-
tional purposes shall be paid upon
warrant of the county board, based
upon requisition of the trustees
and accompanied by itemized bills
for things purchased or work done
Warrants drawn upon the funds
of special tax districts should in
dicate upon their faces in every
case the fund to which chargeable.
The latter part of the letter re-
fers to reporting special tax dis
trict funds, how they should be
entered on the. books and com
bined with the expenditures of the
general fund in the annual report.

posed Rev. Geo. ". White, who is

cuser. He had been pastor at Orion

made affecting his truthfulness and
integrity, but the principal matters

discretions and love making when
preaching at other places
Reference is here made to White
cscapade at Walden, Colo, few
years ago, and his leaving town in a
hasty and summary manner, and the
dispatch closes as follows:
at was also shown that when 10.
Gated at Collinsville. ILL.,, lie became
involved with young woman, caus

he was tried and his license to preach
revoked. At Orion, 1t was proven to

White went to Colorado and from
there wrote letters to his wife suggest

had love for her, and further it was
charged that his relationship with one

M'KINLEY
DEAD.

Much to the sorrow and regret of
the doctors in attendance, and the
grief of the whole American people,
the President, who for several days
was reported to be getting better
suddenly took change for the worse
and despite all human efforts, tears
and prayers sank rapidly until last
Saturday morning, Sept. II at 2.15 a.
m. when he breathed his last. This
ends the career of man who was
twice chosen to the exalted position
of Chief Magistrate Of the great re-
public. The assasin's bullet had
done its deadly work, and at one fell
blow the nation was robbed of its
chief and devoted wife of her best
friend-a good husband. In his last
concious moments President Mckin-
ley held n most pathetic interview
with his heart-broken wife and Is re-
ported to have said, Good bye, all,
good by. 1t is Gods way. His will
be done" Just what he intended
these words to convey may never be
known. 1t certainly was manifes-
tation of fortitude and trust.
The dying president was sur
rounded by all his intimate friends
Wife, brother, two sisters and their
children; his secretary, most all of his
cabinet and a dozen doctors. HIS
last moments were peaceful, uncon.
ciousness having prevailed for half 4
dozen hours prior to the last. He
vas buried at his old home, Canton
Ohio, yesterday Sept, 10, the ami
versary of the death of President
Garfield, and throng of grief stricken
people and intimate personal friends,
in fact all parties unreservcdly con-
tributed TO the solemn and imposing
funeral ceremonies.
In the afternoon of the same day
President Kckinley died, Vice Presi-
dent Theodore Roosevelt too6 the
oath Of office as President, at the
home of an intimate friend, Ansley
Wilcox, ut Buffalo, New York. His
first proclamation was to fix date
for the funeral of his predecessor,
whose untimely end made it possible
for him to become the nations chief
ruler for the next three years and
more.
The immediate cause of the presi-
dents death Is said to have been a
gangrenous condition of tho tissue
along the track Of the deeply i'm
bedded bullet as though the ball
might have been poisoned. This will!
be thoroughly investigated and if
found to be true will show degree
of depravity in the assassin as low or
lower than the savage.
The villain will doubtless soon
meet his deserved punishment
