LARGER SCHOOL BUILDINGS RE
CURED

owing to the recent large infiuex OF
population into Western Canada 1t has
become absolutely neces sary in many
parts of Manitoba, Assiniboia, Saskat-
chewan and Alberta to increase the
school accommodation. In many places
buildings have been erected that are
only half-occupied. This is perhaps as
good evidence as will be found not only
of their satisfaction with their pres
ent school system and their confidence
that it will remain as It is, but also OF
their firm belief in the future expansion
of the country, in increased immigrA-
ton, and 1t further indicates that they
haze little fear that the well estab-
lished rate of births in civilized COM
munities will not be maintained there.
The free homestead laws and the cheap
railway lands offer great inducements,
which are opening up the new settle
ments. Agents Of the Government OF
Carada are actively Mt work in differ
ent portions of the States for the pur-
pose c. giving info. mat,cn to possible
settlers. ard advertisements are nov
appearing in Il large rumber of papers,
giving the names and locations of these
agents.

Argentina Is DESTROYS of Avoiding

London, Dec. 2S.-The Argentina le-
CATION announces that 1t has received
tie following dispatch:
"Buenos Ayres, Dec. 2I.--All the efforts
OF the Argentine government to arrive at
an understanding in the diplomatic rep
reservations made by the Chilean gov
eminent since the beginning OF the year
have proved fruitless, Notwithstanding
that every means was exhausted to Sc
cure a decorous solution for both govern
ments. The Argentine government. in
consequence, has decided to suspend ne
gotiations thereto and refer the matter TO
his Britannia majesty's government and
the arbitrator appointed in 1898. This de-
cision does not mean any alteration in
the existing state Of peace with Chile.
-"Alcorta,
Minister OF Foreign Affairs"
The secretary of the legation explains
that the entire dispute has been referred
TO Great Britain, but that Argentinas
action does not entail a rupture OF dlplo-
matte relations with Chile.
A dispatch to the Central News from
Rome states that the Corriere Della Sera
has received telegram from Buenos
Ayres saying that Chile has rejected the
Argentina note and that diplomatic rela-
lions between the two countries have been

IRA HENRY ASKS DIVORCE.
Claims That His Wife L. Untrue to
Him

Ira Henry filed suit in the district
court this morning against his wife Zoe
Henry, asking the court to grant him a
divorce.
Henry charges that his wife was un-
true to him and that she is now the in
mate of a disorderly house In sAlbu-
querque, New Mexico. Mr.. and Mrs.
Henry were married August I, 1900, and
the trouble began February 1, 1901.
Henry and his wife lived in Albuquerque
for a time and while there they were
both arrested and charged with killing
their infant child. Henry was first dis
charged and later his wife was given
her liberty after she had exonerated
him. Henry is now employed at the
state insane asylum.
