On July 4th the law for compulsory
education went into effect. 1t provinces
that any person having control of any
child of the age of seven to fourteen
years inclusive in proper physical and
mental condition to attend school, shall
cause him to attend some public, pri-
vate or other school. where the common
school branches are taught, or to at.
tend instruction equivalent by some
competent teacher elsewhere, for at leasa
twelve consecutive school weeks in each
school year. This does not apply to ),
child living more than two miles from
school by the nearest travelled roadt
except when people are transported at
public expense, or to children who are
excused by proper authority. And any
one who violates this law is guilty of a
misdemeanor and liable to fine not less
than So, nor more than 500 for each
offense.
The board Of directors may establish
a truant school, or set apart separate
rooms in any public school building for
the instruction of children who are
habitually truant from school. Should
any child sent to the truant school be
insubordinate and escape from such
school without the consent of the person
in charge, he may be committed TO the
Industrial school of the state, with the
consent Of the parent
Truant officers may be appointed by
the board of directors at their annual
meeting to serve for one year, and such
officers may be constables or of the
police force, and it shall be the duty of
such truant officers to apprehend and
take into custody without warraet any
child between the ages of seven and
fourteen years who frequent public
places during school hours, without
lawful occupation or excuse.
The law makes it the duty of teachers
and all county superintendents and all
school officers and employees to notify
.theisecretary OF the school board of any
violations of this provision.

JOE MUTATION.
The Champion Sensation Maker is Pro-
nounced Sane.

me ChampIon sensation Maker is Pro-
nounced Sane.
IL is stated that Joe Mulhatton,
whose career as a colossal liar has had
no equal since the days of Ananias,
has been released from the insane
asylum at Phoenix, Ariz. The inven-
lions of his fertile imagination in years
gone by created excitement that e.
tended around the world. One of the
most sensational of these was a story
of an immense meteor which fell in
Brown county, Texas, which so alarm
ed the natives that they fed for other
parts, leaving the county almost de-
populated. Scientists, newspaper cor
respondents and curiosity seekers
poured into the county by the train
load. 1t did not take them long to dis
cover that the story vas a hoax, and
that they had again been the victim of
one of Mulhatton's prevarications.
On one occasion he had the entire
negro population of the cotton produc-
ing region of the south on the verge of
an uprising. While in the cotton belt
he telegraphed the metropolitan dali
lies that a southern planter had i'm
ported a bunch of African monkeys
and taught them to pick cotton. The
experiment was reported a success and
the planters all We the south were
preparing to dispense with negro la
borers for cotton picking and to sub
stitute monkeys. The story found its
way into the country papers of the
south and able" editors gravely de-
clared that the negro's usefulness in
gathering the "feecy" was ended. So
great was the CONSERVATION among the
sons of Ham, when it became rumored
hat their most remunerative occupa-
ton would be entered by monkeys,
that it took months to restore quiet
after the story was discovered to be
nothing more than another creation OF
the vivid and e~ffervescent imagination
of Joe Mulhatton.
Mulhatton, it is said, made several
thousand dollars in a mining deal, just
before his incarceration in the asylum.
The prosperity vas too much for him,
he became demented.

BUILDS OWN HOME. ov
plucky Woman Constructs House to
Live In at Auburn, N. Y.
Having Finished the House ITSELF
She Is sinking n Well In Her
Kitchen and Has Yet to
Build Barn.

Without the aid of any one Mrs.
James Place, an elderly woman, has
built house at Auburn, N. Y. There
are three rooms below stairs and
two above. She now occupies it with
her husband, who is wounded vet
eran of the civil war.
The house is plain, but is we'll
built and well finished in the inte-
rior. Mrs. Places special JOY is the
winding oak staircase, which she con-
structed with much hard labor. The
walls are all ceiled with fine matched
hardwood, because Mrs. Place docs
not believe in plaster.
"My husband is not strong, and
for years hasn't been able to do hard
work." she said. 1--WE needed per-
manent home, but we saw no way
of having one until went at it
myself. We bought this building lot
in West Auburn and ! put up the
house. 1t contains 5000 feet of lum-
Der, and by the time l have built
the piazza and few outside inn
provements it will require another
1000 feet.
81 used so pounds of large nails,
Is pounds of spikes, and 20 pounds
of shingle nails. / drove every one
+; of them myself, and I didn't hit my
thumb as many times as you might
expect.
81 have great deal to do yet.
Just now / am sinking q we'll in the
kitchen so as not to be dependent
upon my neighbors for water. Then
after my verandas and steps and
walks are added l must grade the
lot. 1t is 16O by 100 feet, and will
require lots of work.
| after that shall paint the house
and then--then I've got to build
barn. Do you see that fine, English
/ bred colt out there" she said, point
ing to sleek young horse in the
! next lot. "Well, that's Kitty. She
is valuable colt, and we think the
| world of her. She has got to hav.
home, too, and must build it,
In one of her tiny front rooms Mrs
Place has opened little store. i
contains stock of candy, confec
lions and notions, which she will tr.
to sell to the neighboring trade
aThen," she says, cheerfully,
guess we'll be as comfortable a
most folks"

FORTRESS OF PROTECTION.
II IL Like Card-House and Will Fall
of Its own Weight II One
Schedule Is Changed,

1.-THE policy of protection is benefi-
cent one and whatever changes experi-
ence has shown to be needed will be
made by the republican party" That
is what Senator Allison says, and,as he
is chairman of the appropriations
committee and member of the
finance committee of the senate, it is
probably fair statement of the po-
sition of the republican leaders.
1t means that no changes in the tar
if schedules will be made, because
"experience" has shown that if the
door is opened ever SO little and one
item could squeeze out of the protec-
tion stocllade. others would try to
follow and the door would be pushed
wide open for general revision of all
the schedules. The protection fortress
that the republicans and the trusts
have erected is impregnable to look
at, but remove one stone and it will
tumble like the toy house that chill
dren build with pack of cards.
The legislative facts show this. If
a bill is introduced to amend one item
in the Dingley tariff law. such bill
is open to further amendment The
democrats can order the ayes and
nays to be called and every member
of the house of representatives must
go on record. for or against free
coal, free beef. free steel, free iron,
free hides. free wool. free salt. free
oil. free lumber, free wood pulp. free
barbed wire. free borax, free cotton
thread, free ammunition. free leather,
free wire nails. free paris green. free
plate glass, free window glass, free
sugar. free steel rails. free steel
| beams. free iron bars. free shovels
free spades, free scythes. free starch
free sad irons, free tin plate, free
wire rods. free axle grease. free white
lead, free saws, free sewing machines
free typewriters, free wire rope ano
free wire of all kinds.
All of the above articles are trust
productions and should be placed on
the free list. Nearly every article is
sold by the trusts and combines vast
ly cheaper in Europe than to custom
ers of the United States.

Hilary organizations, did all they could
to defeat him.
It is true that Secretary Moody and
perhaps others have declared for free
anthracite coal, but as there is no true
anthracite anywhere in the known
world that equals the Pennsylvania
product, it requires no argument TO
show that after the extraordinary
prices that now prevail for hard coal
recede to the normal level, none will
be imported. So the taking off the
duty on anthracite and leaving it on
bituminous coal will not affect the price
to the American consumer. Is any
other republican candidate for con-
gress in favor of free raw products?
If SO, now is the time for him to lift
up his voice and declare it. On the other
hand, nearly. every democratic candi-
date is either pledged by his platform
or has openly declared for free trade
in trust productions. The declara-
tions of the democrats also call for
reduction OF the tariff to a reasonable
basis.
So there is no doubt Of the issue, and
it is almost impossible to believe that
there is any doubt of the result. 1t is
improbable that a majority of the
American people will vote to hurt
themselves and helm the trusts

ANT1-TRusrs OR TRUSTS.
TAe Question That Is to Be Decided
by the American People
at the Polls.

II the republicans hold their own or
are able to organize the house OF rep
rescntatires, it will be heralded as de-
Gliding that the protective tariff is in
dorsed by the voters. Such result
will even be interpreted to mean that
there are no bad trusts, and that the
American people are willing to pay
more for trust products than the trust
Is asking the foreigner to pay. In
short, the voter will stand pat" with
Senator Hanna, although they know
they have losing hand in the trust
and tariff game.
II the democrats gain the lower
house of congress and carry the lesis-
latures of some states that are now
represented by republican United
States senator's, it will be notice to
the protectionists that their days are
numbered and that monopoly is to be
dethroned.
To show that these issues between
the parties is not exaggerated and that
the republicans really stand for pro-
lection to the trusts and the democrats
for placing trust productions on the
free list, it is only necessary to take
the known utterances of the nominees
OF both parties, on these questions.
OF all the 300 and over republican
candidates, only one, Mr.. Foss, of Mas
sachusetts, has been quoted as declar
ing for any relief from trust exactions
He wants free coal, free iron, FREE
hides and free wool. He does not sa.

with little regard for what other por-
lions of the city mag be doing. Bust
ness men on Blue Island avenue in
the vicinity of Eighteenth street
yearly club together and have
street carnival that has come to be
the great annual street demonstra-
ton of the WHOLE foreign district;
and doubtless it does much to keep
alive the general notion in the neigh
horhood that one really need not go
beyond Blue Island avenue for any
of life's necessities.
The answer to the question: What
is the great foreign district like?
depends upon the point of view. 1t
is perhaps unfortunate for the resi-
dents that it's physical aspect coin
cides so closely with that of the
factory district, for in undiscerning
eyes the whole neighborhood is one
hopeless picture of commercial grim
ness. And such my firstS experiences
on that Saturday evening might have
led me to believe was true, for un-
fortunately I miscalculated my route,
and before was aware of it found
myself in a wilderness of factories.
