superintendent Sence Denies Petit
ton for New School.

County Superintendent Sence yesterday
denied the petitioners of school district
50, west of Greenwich. the privilege of
dividing this district up into two dis
tricts. The petitioners stated in their

cause some of them are so far away from
the present district school. There was
remonsrance to this action sent IN to
the superintendent OF public instruction.
and the signers of these showed that if
the southern part Of 50 was made into
a school district the man Who had been
sending his children 10 school a quarter
OF a mile in the adjoining district would
be compelled to so two miles to the new
school.
The petitioners have right Of appeal
TO the county commissioners Of this
county There are. about forty people in
the district that would be effected by the
change. which would require a new school
house and a new school teacher.

With the Weather.

DR.. Fred L. johnson has been giving
this section some very unusual weather
during the present month People have
come to the point of wondering what the
weather man VIII do next.
Yesterday the thermometer varied from
6 to 81 degrees. making the mean 2 de-
grees. Now, what kind of corn weather
does Dr. Johnson consider that, when
every farmer knows that the tempera-
ture must hang around 80 TO make good
corn.
Instead of giving good rain DR.. John
son just reported "a trace Of rain he
was not satisfied with giving Us weather
this far in June degrees cooler than
the normal and degrees cooler than the
same month last year. Up TO last night
he had given this section in the present
month 5.e9 inches OF rain, which. in some
instances came in such torrents as TO do
great damage by overlooking the banks
OF the Little Arkansas river and CHS
holm creek. That was 2.53 inches more
rain than fell all of last June.
