Epworth University.

The action Of the Oklahoma Con.
ference Of the VI. E. church and OF
the Indian Mission Conference of the |
NJ. +. Church South in uniting in the !
establishment of great institution |
of learning to be known as the Ep |
worth University at Oklahoma City !
has created more interest than any
thing in the recent history of educa-
tionalism under the guidance Of the
Methodists who have always been
strong believers In education and its
benefits 1t is the opening wedge in
an effort to settle a strife that began
nearly sixty years ago and which has
caused two great divisions of the
Methodists, one known as the Church
South and the other as the Church
North. Each conference appointed
committees to discuss a plan for a
university and they have jointly ac-
cepted a proposition to locate the in
stitution in Oklahoma City.
The proposition that has been ac-
cepted provides that Oklahoma City
gives a site for a campus and the
university buildings Of fifty acres To-
Gated Immediately north of the city
and which has been added TO the city.
and eleven hundred lots adjoining
and surrounding the site. These lots
are connected with the city by a street
railway, and they are TO be sold at
once and the proceeds are to be used
in the building of the two buildings
that will be erected this year These
buildings are to cost $4,000 each and
the sale of the lots is guaranteed to
bring this sum to the board that will
have charge of the building Of the uni.
versity. In addition TO this amount
the conferences have each pledged
$4,000 that will be added to the
amount given by Oklahoma City and
100000 in all will be invested in the
university before the end of the year.
Under the terms OF the grant made by
Oklahoma City the university will be
liberal and viii be under the conduct
Of both branches of the Methodist
Episcopal Church
There is considerable interest mani.
tested here in the project and quite
a number of persons from this city
will take advantage of the excursion
rate of one fare to visit Oklahoma
City on June II. Is and 10, when
these lots viii be sold. Lots purchas
ed in this addition to Oklahoma City
viii not only aid in the establishment
of great Methodist institution OF
learning but viii also prove a profit
able investment. Address for further

New Board Met and Organized Tester
 day Afternoon.
 It did not take the members of the new board of health long to perfect organization at their first meeting yes terday. After Assistant City Clerk Nettleton had called the meeting 10 order and administered the oath of office to the members, Dr C.. w. s. Frost was elected chairman pro tenn. The election of a president of the board resulted in the election of Thom- as F. Lawlor, the only nominee for the position. The new president made a short speech, in the course of which he thanked the members for such an honor, expressed desire that harmonT among themselves and with the ad- ministration would be the watchword of the members of the board
 Sanitary Inspector Harry w Noses application for reappointment was re, ceived and placed on tile. The next business was the election of a city health officer for the prescribed term of four years. As in the case of the elee- tion of q president of the board there was only one person nominated, pr Thomas J. Kilmartin, who was unani- mously elected. Sanitary Inspector Moses was reappolnted. He received the vote of every member for electing him to such a valuable and important position and said it would be his earn 1 est endeavor to fulfill the duties of the position in a satisfactory manner with the help and cooperation of the mem 1 berS of the board. After considerable discussion the board decided to hold | their meetings each Monday preceding I the first Thursday i'll the month at I D. m. Commissioners Frost and Fla gan were appointed by the chair as q committee to wait upon the mayor and invite him to address the board Mayor Kilduff was unable to appear before the board as he was engaged with the meeting of the board of char ities. He. however, presented his com l pliments to the board.
 The board accepted an invitation ol Garbage Contractor. H. M. Rigney tt visit the crematory and inspect it. Tn. treat on Friday afternoon, January 24. at 1:3O.

NO MORE PASSES.

The Consolidated road joined with the other trunk line roads i'll abolish ing, from January 1, the exchange of free passes for officials over the vari- ous roads. It is estimated that this company's yearly contribution to other lines by an exchange of transportation courtesies amounted to more than B. 100000 miles. The number of annuals was nearly 1,500 while single trip passes averaged about 100 a day. One clerk was specially employed to write free transportation on account of other roads. Hereafter when a high official of railroad desires to go to any point within this district with his private car he will be charged eighteen full fares by every separate road that transports him, and if he should hap pen to go onto the Consolidated sys- tenn the charge would be twenty-five fares.

one. ssIf we begin we'll" he said, well end we'll This is Waterbury's first board of charities and 1t will be looked back to by future boards as q criterion for their conduct. Let us make it something that we can all feel proud of.''
 MT Disley said that all cases of want and distress would have to be met whether the appropriation was large enough or not. ssThis board" he said, should try and practice economy, but if occasion calls for it it should be re- membered that it is not tied down to pennies"
 MT Finn: q don't wish to be mis- understood in this matter. I simply asked what the appropriation was and suggested the advisability of living l.within it if we can. My idea was not to economize by denying anybody what they ought to. receive; but do think that there are people who make prac- tice of imposing upon boards of charity and feel that We should keep a sharp lookout for applicants of that class"
 Mayor Kilduff said that all cases would be thoroughly investigated. He also explained that $14,000 had been appropriated for the almshouse, 12,000 for hospitals and S1S,00O for outside l poor.
 1 The question of salaries was then taken up and after a short talk the matter was laid on the table until the next meeting. MT Disley said that New Haven pays it's superintendent of poor $2,0O0 a year, S1,500 to one clerk and S1, 100 to another. Hartford pays it's superintendent $2,O00, the clerk ST. 400 and the investigator $1,000. The i superintendent of poor at Bridgeport gets $2,0O0 year the clerk $1, 400 and i the investigator $1 ,000.
 MT Dlsley thought it would be wise to retain the stenographer for a week or two, but Mir Filling didn't think well of 1t and the matter was dropped.
 Applications for position as town doctor were received from Dr Munson and Dr Russell. Dr Galley has been acting for the past month and it was decided to continue him until the next meeting.
 A communication from the selectmen at Stratford with reference to c. NJ Judson, and one from the Gilbert home regarding children of Mary Gallagher were referred to the superintendent The superintendent was authorized to secure supplies in the usual way until further notice.
 It was voted that the regular meet. ing of the board be held on the Mon. day preceding the first Thursday in each month.
 The board adjourned until next Mon. day night.

schoolboys In Fierce Battle.


 M'KEESPORT, Pa., Jan. 9.-As the result of terrible street fight between the boys of St. Peter's Parochial school and the lads who attend the public schools at least one life, that of little Annie Cannon, will be sacrificed. She was struck on the head with brick. A dozen arrests have already been made. The boys had prepared for the fight, many being at the schoolhouseS earlier than usual with their pockets and hats filled with stones and brickbats. The boys from the parochial school called the public school boys Protestant pups'' and in turn were styled Mick eys." The boys lined up like soldiers in the street and fought almost half hour with stones and bricks before the police arrived. Joseph Egan was hit in the eye with a sharp stick and will lose the sight of one eye.

Setting Out Trees

Is much more than digging a hole in
the ground and putting a tree in it. We
have never taken any scientific or special.
training in this line, but trees we set out.
generally grow noW;$years ago they did.
not One of the first things we learned
was that a tree, however small or large,
must have more roots than top or trouble.
would result. If the tree with more top
than roots did not die, it came 80 near
it THAT only meagre growth and an un-
slightly top was5the result. It takes nerve
to cut the top Of a newly set tree when
the only object in putting out the tree is
to have the top there; but a more beauti-
full top and a surer one is sure to be the.
result. We have tried both ways many
times, and the result is alwaysthe same:
"a well-shaped, thrifty,beautiful top on
the tree cut off clean, orsnearly SO, and a
scragglysthin topEor a dead tree where
the top is all left on. The next thing is
to mulch wide if at all, and though
there are some objections to mulching
trees too. deeply, We believe in some
mulch in a dry country. # water is
necessary to a trees growth or living in
a dry time, to fork up the ground lightly
before applying the water will more
benefit than if the water is poured onto
dry, hard ground or sod Il run away.
Water poured onto partly rotted mulch
ing giyes,the best results. We think to
water heavily and not frequently Is more
natures way, and is better thansto wet a
little often, as this latter Saaystends to
get the roots in the habit Of looking to
the surface instead of down for moisture.
We hope lots Of trees viii be put out the:
coming spring and that they will be put
out right.--Writer in Dakota Farmer.

Press Appreciated

Mandan Pioneer: 1t is with pleasure
that the Pioneer sees its contemporary,
the Dickinson Press, enter on its 10th
year of usefulness. The Press. under its
present management, which has lasted
since 1890, is an able, reliable and value
able paper, always standing for the best
for its city, county and state. Editor
Ayers has no crank notions to exploit.
His enterprise on such an occasion as
duringthe late storm, in collecting news
that will especially interest his readers,
is excellent. He has succeeded in Civ
ing several columns of items of news
concerning individual stockmen sur:
rounding Dickinson that possess peculiar
interest to his constituency, and stands
for a great deal of hard work. The
Pioneer wishes the Press many years Of
continued usefulness and prosperity.
