it would be unfortunate to embarrasS the
inauguration of the school year by pro-

pupils and teachers at disadvantage.
AS the employment of additional teachers
Is contingent upon securing additional
room, recommend that as, soon as it is
determined to provide the room, that the
teachers be elected to occupy them.

you will consider their statements made
IN connection with the request. l am Of
the opinion that some form Of Manual
Training s should be a part Of every high
quest is reasonable one. However,
am strongly of the opinion that the time
has fully come when this question of in
dustrial training should be broadly con-
sldefed with view to placing it on
proper basis and giving it proper place
N our ScnOol system. AT present, the
foundation is laid in the kindergarten for
progressive work, but except here and
lnere.. where individual effort has ac-
complished something, no systematic
work Is attempted until the high school
is reached. instruction in this line of
work should be regularly carried for
ward from the kindergarten through the
grades, and each year should have re-

In view of this, recommend that, in

SUMMER SCHOOL is BOOMING.
Enrolment Passes the Thousand Marx
and Breaks Record.

The university summer school has
this year marked its record enrolment
figure at LOTS. DR.. d. L. Kiehle, the
conductor of the school, says that new
er before has there been such numer-
GUS and such regular attendance at
classes during the first week.
The great majority of the student
teachers come from Minnesota, but the
Dakotas, Wisconsin, Iowa. Illinois,
Missouri and several others states are
represented.
There are all grades of teachers in
attendance-from the young aspirant
for a third grade certificate to the ma
| ture educator of many years expert
ence in the high schools and colleges.
Several nuns from the converts of the
state are much interested in their work
at the summer school
These students are not tempted to
cut classes. They want to do all the
earnest work they can before Aug. 8,
when the school closes, so no matter
how beautiful the day or how inviting
the river bank, classes are not neg
lected, and chapel is crowded every
morning.
Between classes the campus is all
a-hutter with the gay colors of sum-
mer gowns. Here and there a black
coat is conspicuous by it's variety The
women are certainly in possession of
the university this time and they might
well style the men the Eco eds"
Even the places the men claimed as
their very own are invaded by the dis
tinctly feminine arts Of sewing and
| cooking. The Y. M. G. A building is
decorated with tiny rugs from the hand
looms and with doll hammocks. Here,
too, the teachers weave the dainty
little baskets that will delight the
hearts of the children when they can
learn to make them.
The law building is given over to
music, and as it echoes with the gay
little songs for the primary grades,
which the teachers sing with vim,
the solemn walls seem to protest
against putting this dignifed sanctum
of the law to so frivolous use.
At least twice a week special music
| is given in chapel by the various choirs
| and musicians of the city.
Great interest is being taken in the
public lectures given each afternoon in
| the chapel at 4 o'clock by Prof Win
| chell on the Geology of Minnesota
| Hereafter each Saturday will be re-
| served for field and laboratory work
| and regular classes will be suspended.
Many are looking forward to the an
nual excursion to Taylors Falls, which
| takes place next Saturday.

CITY COUNCIL DUE TO ACT.
They May Remove Supt. Ames anc
CAPT. Fitchette,

(aPIs flLCnSItes
1t is probable that the city council
will take action at it's meeting next
Friday evening and remove from the
list of police officials now on the city
pay rolls the names of Supt. Ames
and Capt. John Fitchette.
This undoubtedly will be done if the
police committee of the council offers
any recommendations to that effect,
and there is "a possibility of it being
done anyway. 1t takes a two-thirds
vote of the council to remove any Of
ficer of the police department for
cause, and many of the aldermen are
of the opinion that they have just
cause in the cases of the above Off
Gals.
Supt. Ames, on the statement of the
mayor, was given fifteen days leave
of absence. His time expires today,
and this is regarded as sufficient cause
if he does not show up; while in the
case of Capt. Fitchette, he is under
sentence to do ninety days at the
workhouse, and this is figured as suf-
ficient cause for removal.
Nothing has been heard of Col Ames
since his departure. 1t is rumored that
he is in several places, but his wife de-
MES these rumors, and still insists that
her husband will be home in good
time.

Newfoundland May Come In.

ST. JOHNS, N. F., July 22.-Wide-
spread interest is developing here over
the speech delivered in London last
week by Sir Robert Bond, the pre-
mier of Newfoundland, in which he
declared that the confederation of New
foundIand with the Dominion of Cana
da was mainly a question of terms
from the latter. Press and public are
discussing the matter eagerly, and the
feeling is generally expressed that
Prime Minister Bonds speech makes
the question a practical one, and is
likely to result in action being taken to
advance the matter at the next session
of the legislature.

OFFICERS AFTER SCHNEIDER.
Charged With Abuse and Failure te
Support His Family.

The police were out last night look
ing for Jacob SCHNEIDER, the man who
is said to have refused to furnish food
for his family, although when arrest
ed for n-support he had about $500
on his person.
After being released on bail few
days ago, having spent two days in
central station, SCHNEIDER, it is claim
ed, went home and commenced to
abuse his family. officers at the south
station were informed of his conduct,
and SCHNEIDER was warned that if he
did not behave himself he would again
be locked up.
Last night it was reported that
SCHNEIDER had been beating his wife
and children, and officers from police
headquarters and from the humane So
ciety were sent to look for him. The
man had disappeared, however, and the
police returned empty manded.

mercial club, is elated over the fact
that the National Educational associa-
ton convention, which was held in this
city, was an exemplary one so far as
expenditure for entertaining was con-
cerned.
The total cost to the Commercial
club was $5,143.22.> OF this amount the
teachers in the city subscribed 5000,
and the sum received from exhibitors
for space sold was $1,163. This cuts
down the actual expense to $3.50 %.
Last year Detroit spent $7,328, and in
1900 the sum at Los Angeles reached
the enormous figures of $4,000
Secretary Irwin A. Shepard is au-
thority for the statement that the ex-
pense incurred here was less than for
any other city in which the convention
has been held. He also says that the
entertainment provided was better.

HIS PRIVATE SECRETARY SAYS
SENATOR is NOT oUT FORM.
ING A NEW PARTY
THINKS REPORTS ARE
DUE TO MISUNDERSTAND
Says SHIRLEY Is Organizing Movement
10 Secure Referendum Legislation,
and Not a New Political Party
Judge Flenner Talks Interestingly
on Politics.

Judgu ]. D. Flenner, private secre-
tary to United States Senator F. T..
Dubois of Idaho is visiting his step
son. f. F. Clark, of this city.
Judge F'lenner was seen yesterday
and expressed considerable surprise at
the Associated Press dispatch of yes
terday morning regarding the organi-
cation of a new national party by Sem
ator Dubois, former Senator r. F. Pet
tigrew, of South Dakota, and others
at Manhattan beach. He said he was
quite sure the report was erroneous,
as Senator Dubois is loyal Democrat
and would not cOuntenance a third
party movement of any kind.
Mr.. Flenner has been associated in
4 politics with Senator Dubois very in
timately for the last twelve years and
understands his views, The senator
is a recent accession to the Democratic
ranks. He left the Republican party
in 1896, when that party dropped silver
and was the leader of the Silver Re
publican party of Idaho up to 1900.
He was elected to the senate as a Sill
Yer Republican in 1901.
Immediately upon his election, Sen
ator Dubois announced himself as a
Democrat, because that party repre-
sented his views more nearly than any
other. According to Judge Flenner, he
took high rank at once with the DEM
ocratic members, who showed him
marked courtesy and consideration. He
was very active in securing a union
of the Democrats in both houses on
important measures.
- Democratic to Co~e.
Said Judge Flenner: Senator Du-
bois believes most firmly in the union
of all the Democratic forces and would
not approve in any way a division in
r the Democratic ranks. I am persuaded
that the report from New York has
been very much mixed up, and I am
confident the first thing the senator
will do, when he sees it, will be to is
sue fiat denial.
George SHIRLEY, of Washington, who
has been represented as the chief pro-
moter of the plan, is not out organic
ing any new party. He is simply or
ganizing movement in all the parties
to secure direct legislation by the Wi
neckti methods, which is to adopt
what is known as the referendum
through a rule of procedure in the leg
islature, instead of changing the con-
StitutiOn of the state. All of the labor
organizations have Endorsed Shibley's
plan and he is seeking to enlist lead
ing senators and public men in it's sup
port"
Judge Flenner is one of the Oldest
