WESTERN TEACHERS
FOR THE PHILIPPINES

Washington, July 20.-Compared
with other western states, Colorado
was decidedly favored in the appoint
ments which have beer made TO fill
places in the corps of teachers who
are TO soon leave for the Philippine
islands to undertake the work of edu-
eating the natives of those islands.
A few C~oloradoans We're appointed
on Ii recommendation of Professor
Fred w. Atkinson, superintendent of
public instruction. at Manila, but for
the most part the appointments were
made on the endorsement of the lead
ing colleges of the state. Those ap-
pointed upon recommendation of Pro
fessor Atkinson in Colorado and sur
rounding states are: Elizabeth Liddell
and Mary Il. Mcclellan, 1919 Logan
avenue, Denver; Miss Cora Il. Fay,
Colorado Springs; James w. Delley,
Schofield, Utah; Albert X. Hager, Salt
Lake, Utah: j. NJ. Schilling, Carbon,
Wyoming, Emma b. Payton, Florence,
Arizona, and Miss Minnie Webb, Pay
son. Arizona.
The following appointments We're
made upon recommendations of the in
stitutiOns Indicated:
Colorado College, Colorado Springs
Ralph Wells, Miss Nellie NJ. Hill, Miss
%ih'Nb ~ Hlil''l dhu Miss buII WHY,
all of Colorado Springs.
Colorado State Normal School. Gree
ley-William A. Lewis, Silver Plume;
Elmer IL. Latson, Greeley; G. B. Col
Inns, Cedarville; Edith McMuIlin, Bo-
nanza, Ii Gilbert Sellers, Greeley.
On recommendation of Helen l..
Grenfell-Frank A. Braucht. La Junta;
william A.. Hall, Longmont; Miss
Mary II. Policy. Denver; j. b. Law
son, Teller, and Miss Mary A. Osgood,
Denver.
Wyoming-Recommended by state
superintendent Of education: Miss Eff
he X. Dodds, Cheyenne; ii. ii. Law
renee, Noble Goldsmith and Robert s.
Gray, Wheatland.
As yet no appointments have been
made from New Mexico, but because
of he acquaintance of teachers in thai
territory with the Spanish language
INC the call for that language in the
Philippines, 1t is probable some of the
good positions will yet be offered to
parties from New Mexico.

SCHLEY DETAINED BY HISTORY
USED in THE NAVAL ACADEMY

Baltimore, Md, July 20.-General Fee
liX Angus, publisher of the American,
has telegraphed the following to Pres
ident Mckinley:
civilian Mckinley, President, Can
ton, Ohio:
"Maclay's history of the navy is the
standard in use at the Naval academy.
In the third volume, just issued, the
historian charges Rear Admiral Schley
with being a coward, a liar. a caitin
and an Incompetent subordinate.
In an interview in the American,
this morning, Maclay, the historian,
who is a navy department clerk, class
ed as a laborer and attached to the
Brooklyn navy yard. says that proofs
of this third volume. which should
have told the most glorious story of all
our naval annals, were submitted to
Secretary Long Inc Admiral Sampson
and approved by them in advance of
publication; also that Long put him in
his present position after he had read
and approved this scurrilous attack
upon Admiral Schley. The proofs
were also submitted to Admiral Dew
ey. who refused to read them.
IF aught were needed to convince
any fair-minded man that n clique in
the Navy Department has conspired to
rauuce the nero OF SdntliSO, anu tudt
the conspiracy was carried into eNecu-
ton while that brave and gallant Off
Ger was suffering repatriation on the
fe~ver-infested coasts of South America,
this should furnish it.
'Will you. Mr.. President, in view of
all this, sit quietly by and permit these
conspirators to continue their diaboli-
cal work? Every justice-loving Amer
lean appeals to you to Intervene in the
name and for the sake of fair play.
Next to being right all tire time. which
no mar ever was, the best thing Is to
find out as soon as possible that you
are wrong, and right yourself immedi-
ately.
"FELIN ANGUS"
Washington, July 1.-The secretary
of the navy has decided that the third
volume of Maclay's history of the
Spanish-American war shall not he
used as II ext book at the naval acad-
envy unless the obnoxious language 1t
contains in ch~aracteriZing the action
of Rear Admiral Schley is eliminated.

AS rapidly as possible the Postoffice
Department is equipping carriers on
rural free delivery routes with a new
form of money order books, whereby
carriers will be able to take money
from patrons, issue them a receipt, u
chase money orders at the end of their
route, and either mail them direct for
purchasers, or turn them over next
day. This Is not the complete money
d system that IL is hoped may
eventually be adopted in the rural free
delivery delivery service, but is a first
step in that direction.
The books in question consist of an
order and two stubs. one a RECENT
given by rural carriers upon taking
money from n patron. and another
which is the receipt held by the carrier
when he turns the money over to the
postmaster himself retaining the third
portion Of the sheet. or the order made
out by the patron.
This new service has already beer in
operation for several weeks I'm eastern
states. and is now making its way into
L West. Where IL has been tried II
has proven most successful. and is
readily taken advantage of by patrons
of rural routes. So rapidly have they
taken hold. in fact, that ninety nor.
N of the money heretofore sent
through the mails by registered mail is
now sent by money order. Besides he
ing safe, the new system enables per-
sons TO send any amount they desire.
including odd change. which was moi
convenient under the registry system.

Western apples sent to the New
York market last season afford new
proof of the importance of packing
goods in the best way. In the ordinary
New York fiat there is seldom room
for a barrel of apples, nor would fruit
bought in such quantity keep until
used. On the other hand apples pur-
chased by the dozen or the peck are
expensive. Western growers who act
ed upon this knowledge were well paid,
Last year they shipped their apples to
New York in boxes. They were sold
at barrel rates. and the boxes were
conveniently kept on the fire escapes
until freezing weather. Two hundred
and fifty thousand boxes were sold last
winter, and this year the number will
be still larger.
