New Teachers.

The Board of Edit cation met
Monday evening of this week
and elected the corps of teachers
for the coming year. A com
plete sweep was made in every
department. The list is as fol-
lows.
Principal, Milton S Harper, of
Pine Grove, Pa.
9TH and 9Th grade, Miss A.
Eliza Corey, of East Worchester,
N. Y.
5th and 9Th grade, Miss
Katherine S. Scholl of Danube
N. Y.
Sd and 4th grade, Miss Mabel
A. Zimmerman of Danube, N. Y.
Primary department, Miss
Margaret Haley, of .Willmar,
MINI,
We believe that the action
of the board will meet with the
approval of a majority of the
tax payers and patrons of the
school. The new principal Mr..
Harper comes with the highest
references that can possibly be
obtained. He is graduate of
the University of Maryland and
a post graduate of John Hopkins
university. For eleven years he
has been principal and part of
that time president of college.
He is said to be a gentleman in
every respect and thorough
teacher. The other teachers en-
gaged also come with the best of
recommendation and all hold
first grade certificates where
they now live. It is to be hoped
that the boards choice Of teach
ers is a wise one. We under
stand that Misses Gillis and
Ecksteln were not candidates
for reelection.

THE land is full of railroads and rumors of roads. The in- formation comes from Conway that thereis possibility of a re- vival of the prospects for a road north from Little Rock into the zinc belt. $. w. Lee, chief en- gineer of the St. Louis and North Arkansas railroad, which is now in operation to St. Joe, Searcy county, made a trip overland from Heber and returned to Quit man. The statement is credited to him that he considered it an assured fact that the road will be extended from St. Joe to Conway, from which point traffic arrange ments would be made with the Ft. Smith branch of the Iron Mountain to Little Rock. The Frisco is back ofthe enterprise.- Arkansas Democrat.

FRUIT growing in northern Ar kansas is making rapid strides and will continue to increase as the quality of our fruit and the adaptability of our soil and cli- mate become more generally known. The notoriety gained by the display made by the Green Forest horticultural society at the St. Louis fair, at which time they carried off six first premiums and two second on apples, will result in great good to this entire section. Arkansas apples take the lead everywhere and more attention should be paid to mak- ing exhibits.-Harrison Repub- lican.

WHEN a man dies and the wid- ow marries again, and the second husband dies, is she the widow of the first husband or of the second one, or of both is asked by an exchange, which explains: That was the conundrum recently be- fore the pension authorities. The widow of federal soldier was drawing a pension as such a widow. She married again and the pension stopped. Then the second husband died and she made application for reinstate- ment as the widow of the first husband and the claim was al- lowed. Consequently, un der that ruling, widow can never be a widow of any but her first hus- band.

THERE perhaps never has been a time in the history of our gov ernment when prosperity reigned more supremely in every avenue of industry than it does today. The railroads and factories are all worked to their fullest capac- ities, while man wbo wants employment can always find 1t at fair wages.

PURDY COMES
 WITH THE REPORT
WATER COMPANY AFFAIRS WILL BE DISCUSSED AT A SPECIAL MEETING OF THE CITY coUN. GIL CALLED FOR TONIGHT.

President J. II. Purdy of the Birmpg- ham Water Works Company reached the city last night with the reply which his company will make to the city's demand that it establish filtration plant. He also brings the report of the two experts employed by the water company to make an examination of the water.
 MT. Purdy will present the answer and report at the special meeting of the Mayor end Beard of Aldermen which is called for tonight. When seen last night he stated that he could not make public any part of the report in advance of its pI eSentation to the meeting of the Coun- ell.
 This report is the result of a careful analysis of the water furnished the city for domestic purposes and a careful ex- animation of the watershed ard sources Of supply made by Experts Benzeburg and Fuller, who were brought here by the water company fer this purpose.
 Special Sanitary Expert Samuel L. Gray. who was employed by the Jefter- ooi CJulty lO lH- vestigate the water supply of the city, reported that an analysis of the water showed that it was advisable to filter 1t before drinking. Acting on this report the City Council passed an ordinance in troduced by Alderman Gray calling on the water company to begin work on a filtration plant within thirty days. This time was extended at the request of the company until June TO- In the meantime they have had two experts at work in- vestigating the water, and it is their re- port which will be presented to the City Council tonight. Much interest Is mani fested in the report and there is consid- erable speculation as to what it will be.
 If the report of the experts states that the supply of water Is pure and the com rsny declines to begin work on a filtra- tion plant, 1t will then be for the city to say what steps 1t proposes to take to en- force the Gray ordinance. This in posi- tive terms orders the city attorney, in the event the water company failed to comply with its provisions, to take what ever steps were necessary to annul the existing contract between the city and the water company

There were feathers enough around to make mattress and the ground looked like pieces.
 "One of the recent robberies was tte taking of two nens which were roasting in an open window, the owner being asleep with his head next to the window and his shotgun near his hand. The thieves ave very bold, and something will have to be done to put a stop to it.'

Walker to St. Louis may lead to a com promise The fact that MT. Walker is a member of firm which represents both the Seaboard and the Frisco system lends strength to the belief Nothing definite can be known until after Mr. Walkers conference with the Frisco of flcials He will meet President Yoakum today.
 In the meantime President John Skel- ton Williams of the Seaboard Air Line will reach New York this afternoon, and 1t may be that conference with mem bers of the executive committee of the Frisco system and the Seaboard president will be held either this evening or tomor- row.
 The general opinion in Birmingham among those in a position to know is that the legal difficulties will be ad- justed and that the two systems will work in harmony. It is known that con- ferences which have been heretofore held by officials of the two systems were of a thoroughly amicable nature, and in view of the fact that their interests are mutual, it Is generally believed that the two roads will use the Belt Line jointly.
