The board Of education at a meeting this
afternoon was expected to take favorable
action on the report of the committee on

mending sweeping increase Of salaries

cept those in the eighth grade was raised
from 500 to $3.50. The salary Of eighth
grade teachers will remain at $500. -
Engineers and janitors now receiving
$50 or less month will get an increase
of IS. All receiving salaries above that
amount will get an advance of 2k per
cent. The maximum salary was raised
from SIS to $50 month. The total in
crease in salaries will mean an extra ex-
penditure of S23, 900 from April 1 to Jan.

CHANGES In PENSIONS
Details Of the New Ratings Are Re-
ceived by Maj. Oscar
" F. '-> Seebach.

Good news for old soldiers has been
received by Major Oscar Seebach, assist
ant adjutant general Of the state. The
information is relative to the passing of
four amendments made to pension acts
by the recent congress and whereby rates
Of pensioners are materially increased.
-, The first increased the rating for total
deafness from $50 to $40 a month The
second raises the rate for the loss of one
hand or one foot from $50 to $40 and
that for the less of an arm at or above
the elbow or a leg at or above the knee
shoulder joint a leg at the hip Joint
or SO near the shoulder or hip joints as
to prevent the use Of artificial limbs en-
titles to a pension of $55 instead Of SIS
as heretofore. The rate for the loss Of
one hand and one foot is raised from $50
to $50 and that for the loss of both feet
from $72 $1O0. The third act raised the
pensions of all survivors of the Mexican
war from So to s12 per month. Pensioners
already on the rolls for these disabilities
need not make application for the in
creases as the pension commissioners have
received instructions from the bureau to
make the required changes. <a-at
The fourth measure amended the act
providing for the reissuing of pensions to
widows who lost their pensions through
remarriage. Two years ago law was
enacted granting, on the death of the Sec
ond husband "a pension of s12 q month
to widows that had been on the pension
1oN prior to their .remarrlaSe> and could
prove that their income was less than $3.50
per year. The amendment passed at the
last session extends the provisions of this
act to those widows otherwise entitled,
whose husbands died of wounds, injuries
or disease contracted during military serv-
ice, but who were deprived of their pen
sions because of their failure to draw any
pension by reason of their remarriage.

BAD 81 BILLS PASSING
The New Counterfeits Have Already
Come to Light in Min
T.. :t neapolis.

All 81 bills in circulation in Minneapolis
are under suspicion. This Is occasioned
by the arrival Of some very deceitful
greenbacks of the 81 denomination These
have every appeara of being just what
they purport to be, legal tender But they
are bad, very bad, because they are so
good. -.. -.. -. .,,...,. .E
Captain J. w. Lawrence, agent of the
secret service stationed in the twin cities,
discovered one of these bills yesterday.
Just one week after he was warned by
the treasury department at Washington
He spent the afternoon visiting the banks
and the cashiers Of big business estab-
lishments warning them against the coun-
terfeit.
About two years ago quarantine against
all 81 bills was declared by department
store cashiers, so many We're put in cir
culatiotl The work on the new counter
felt is so good that such action may re-
suit again $3.50 <zs@ss-s-=s
The feature of the bill is it's ''too much
ness" The paper is too crinkly, the silk
threads are too evident. the linking is too
heavy to be the real thing. This is the
case with the new bills, but when they
become slightly worn their detection will
be almost; impossible.
The work is what is called Photographic
etching. With a little more expertness
| the worknnenz will have counterfeit al
most impossible Of detection. The execu-
tion of the seal Is excellent, also of the
numbers but the .vignette is poor. Wash
| ington's face looks as if he regretted
! something exceedingly.

-,.-, @ .. Attorney. -. ..#

A movement has been started among
business men to raise a purse with which
to secure the services Of some able law
yer to assist the state In the coming trial
of Former Mayor A. A. Ames. .. .-s.
The plan Is still in embryo but is said
to have been presented to some members
of the bench and to have met with their
hearty approval. The raising of the
money is said to be easy Of accomplish
ment. S' ->
AS a. cause for their action the promo
ters urge several points. They set forth
that In a case of such Importance as this
1t Is no more than justice to the citizens
of Minneapolis and Hennepin county as
well as to the county attorney himself to
see that no effort is spared in presenting
every detail of the states case in it's
strongest light to the jury. With such able
lawyers as W. w. Erwin, Frank Nye and
Tenry S. Mead battling for the defense,
it is urged that no one attorney, how
look after the peoples interests. TWO
heads are always better than one and with
Mr.. Boardman and another capable trial
lawyer working together, it is believed
the states position would be materially
strengthened. - -.
Mr. Boardman is out Of the city and
cannot therefore be- seen. He can, Of
course. either refuse or accept the offer
of assistance, but it is1:tIlieved that he
will welcome the appearance Of an able

Billy Edwards of the Metropolitan the
ater, one Of the best amateur boxers in
the northwest, picks Young Corbett as
the winner in tO-night's battle for the
feather weight Championship : -.
1.-THE two men are, evenly matched
says Billy, >"and it is anybodys fight from
the tap of the gong. They are both fast,
furious fighters. and the element of chance
will figure largely in deciding the contest.
~Corbett met .McGoVern's arushes before
with cool head and managed to land the
knock-ou punch, and I am inclined to
think he will do it again. McGovern is
a wild rusher, who of necessity leaves
himself open, and Corbett will step in and
meet him, as, he did before. He is not
afraid of the McGovern rush. Other fight
ers who have fought Terry were confused
and ratified by his hurricane style. Half
OF them were whipped before they real
lied where they were. tx $-5'f
Il have heard the opinion expressed
that McGover1 would be more careful this
time. Well, he can't do that without
handicapping himself. He only knows one
style Of fighting, and that is rushing in
fighting. If he attempts to box Corbett
think he will be defeated He does not
understand long range, fighting; that is
the step -step-out way of whipping q
man which Jim Corbett employed so ef-
fectively for number of years.
In my Judgment, it is anybody's fight
