THE HIGH SCHOOL
BUSINESS COURSE
Professor M. M. Scott Tells oil
It's Scope and
Objects.

When the High School opens again for
its next term it will have added a new
course to its present curriculum. This
is the business course, which will un-
doubtedly be great benefit to many
young people in this city. Prof Scott
when seen yesterday, gave the follow
ing particulars about it:
The course will mainly be for those
of our young people here who do not
desire to go to college after they have
completed their High school course
Many Of these have neither the time
nor the wish to study languages, and
they will therefore be allowed to take
branches more intimately related to
business, than these. They will thus
take full course in all other branches
and especially in English, an intimate
knowledge of which is deemed absolute
ly necessary for the modern business
man. In place of languages such studies
as typewriting, shorthand, business
forms, commercial geography, CONNER
cial history and the study of CONNER
cial and tariff relations between diff
ferent countries. In the dictations for
typewriting and shorthand, such themes
as an insight into the forms of com
mercial correspondence There are many
young men and women from California
now in this city making good livings in
business. Now the young people of the
Islands are given chance to educate
themselves, so that they will be capa-
BILE of entering into the same line of
work without crninO hI1CinaCc roll
leges in the States"

department, is a graduate of the Uni
versity of California, and has been en-
gagged in business in San Francisco for
several years. He is expected to arrive
by the next steamer from the Coast.

Forty Chickens Stolen From
Farmer Near HaySviIle
SOLD IN THIS CITY
Birds Easy of Identification
Because of Marks.
lis A SERIOUS OFFENSE
Stealing of Chickens Means
Charge of Grand Larceny,
is A SERIOUS 0FFENSE

Mr.. Sence, the brother OF the county
superintendent, lost forty chickens from
his home near Haysville Friday evening.
The chickens were all marked by having
a small hole punched in the webb of the
right foot. This hole led to the finding
the chickens late last evening in the poul-
try yards of the Southwest Kansas Poul-
try company.
Mr. CorneIison, the manager Of the
yards. was seen by the detectives and
told OF the robbery and at once exam
ined some chickens which he had pur-
chased that day. Hhe found the chick
ems and gave the description Of the men
who had sold the chickens to him
The detectives then started cut 70 find
the men and found two men who an
swered the description exactly. They
also found the money which it is sup
posed was secured from the sale Of the
chickens.
The men were taken TO the police sta
ton just al midnight. They gave the
names J. II Martin and W NJ Bradford.
They We're locked up and win be given a
hearing Monday. The amount OF the
money, S1465. which the chickens were
sold for was found in their possession.
One thing that led TO their detection was
the care with which they had the check.
which was given them, in payment for
the chickens, made out TO bearer, so that
it could be cashed without any identidca-
ton.
It is a serious offense to steal chickens
and is classed as grand larceny. To be
convicted of this offense means a term
in the penitentiary. The officers think
that they have a very strong case against
the men they captured and are feeling
pretty good TO think that they captured
them before they had time 10 dispose Of
the money they had secured for the chick
ems. The men were camped in the hay
market and thought that they were Sc
