No One Can Account for Absence of
Lou Rempeye.
Creston, Nov 27.--Lou Rempeye, of
this city. a well known travelling man
whose home is on North Elm street,
has not been seen since Saturday, and
his absence is oceasioning much anxi-
ETY. to his family. A representative of
Morrill, & Co., Of Ottumwa. by whom
he is employed, is in the city making
inquiries about him. The last seen of
Mr.. Rempeye was Saturday last, when
he was seen in company of a we'll
known farmer. A telephone message
from this gentleman says that they
parted about o'clock; that he sup
posed Mr.. Rempeye was going home.
Mr.. Rempeye is good salesman and a
valuable man for the company, and the
firm Is anxious to have him go to work
He left his home in this city on Thurs
day Of last week for Red Oak. and his
family did not look for him until Satur-
day. He evidently came to Creston Sat-
urday, but failed to go home, and the
last trace of him in this city was Sat
urday afternoon. The clerk at Balling-
all hotel in Ottumwa is positive he saw
Mr. Rempeye about the house Sunday
morning, but paid no attention to him,
as he is frequently seen in that place,
and he appeared to be all right at the
time. His family is almost distracted
with anxiety over his strange action.
His accounts are correct and no reason
can be imagined for his disappearance.

SCARCITY OF TEACHERS.
Barrett's Ideas Of Superintendents' Du-
ties in Such Cases.

Barrett's Ideas Of Superintendent Ou-
ties in Such Cases.
special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Nov. 27.-The position
taken by State Superintendent Barrett
in regard to the duty of county super
intendents in counties where there is
scarcity of teachers and the pressure Is
strong for certiication of incompetents,
is one which will be Of general interest.
Professor Barrett believes that 1T is the
duty of the superintendent to determine
the fitness of applicants for certificates
and to give them only on evidence OF
fitness, no matter what the pressure
may be to do otherwise. 1t is the duty
of the school directors and the school
boards to secure teachers. They can al
ways secure teachers when they are
willing to pay enough. The that
they do not make offers that induce
young men and young women to en-
gage in teaching is not to be considered
by the superintendent. Teachers for
rural schools are not to be had. There
is a steady call for them at the state
normal school and in every one Of the
private and local normal schools of the
state. The colleges are being asked
continually for teachers. The state is
not paying enough to secure them and
there is distinct shortage all over the
state. But the state superintendent
rules that it is not the duty of the coun-

A 100000 GYMNASIUM.
Coach Knife Will Tour the East Get.
TING Pointers for Iowa.


ting Pointers for Iowa.
Iowa City, Nov. 27.--A fine gymnas-
ium, costing in the neighborhood of
100000, may be erected by the Univer-
sity of Iowa in due time, If all goes
we'll.
Dr. A. A. Knipe, coach of the Iowa
eleven has the matter in hand. He
left to day for Champaign, where the
Hawkcye team plays tomorrow. and
thence he will go to Philadelphia, to
spend the winter. During his extended
absence he will investigate the ques-
ton thoroughly, looking over all the
principal institutions in the east. He
will report to the board of regents on
his return. DR.. Knipe thinks that a
gymnasium suited to the needs of Iowa
will cost between 100000 and $4,000
when fully equipped, and he says the
regents will not recommend to the leg
islature, in all probability, that any
thing smaller than the former amount
be appropriated. DR.. Knipe has hereto
fore told the regents that the univer-
sity athletes have been sadly handi-
capped by the. almost total absence of
gymnasium facilities, and that the
Iowa eleven would have made far bet
ter showing this season had the gym
been a reality instead of dream, up
to date.
The board impressed by this argument
has instructed him to make a full in
vestigation of the subject in the east
and to report next spring.
