School Boards Problem.

The annual election of the teachers is
again the task of the school board and
1t has several vacancies to fill from a
large list OF strong applicants, The
board had given notice of the fact that
the election would take place on Mon
day evening April 9Th, and large
number of local applications with many
from abroad have been received. There
are four vacancies to be filed, three in
the grades and one in the high school
This is q small number of changes
considering the corps employed. Those
not making application are Miss Cora
Smell, Miss Faith Pierce, Miss Kate
Kelly and Miss Emma Robinson of the
high school. These young ladies have
plans which take them out of the posi-
tions here in which they have been so
successful. Their places will be diff
cult to fill but the board will do all
possible to secure teachers who will
help to maintain and promote the
school standards of our city. The
perfect harmony that has characterized
our teaching force has been of the
greatest Importance in the develop
ment and progress of our school system
and the selection of teachers who have
the spirit of cooperation is as impor-
tant as those who have ability. The
board is made up of experienced and
conscientious business men who are
both impartial and nonpartizan in all
OF their school duties and they NAV be
relied upon to serve the interests of
the schools and the city in progress
i've and broad minded manner.

Praise For SoehI.

The Maquoketa Excelsior has the
following high compliment to pay MIR.
Fred Soehl.
The hit of the evening was Fred
Soehl of Denison, who gave an aston
ishing bit of impersonation called ga
Scene in Railway Station in North
ern England" No less than fifteen
different characters were shown to the
audience, and each one was SO distinct
that one had but to close their ewes
and it would seem that the stage was
full of people. Mr.. Soehl is phenom-
enon and unless we are much mistaken
sufficient training will enable him to
take place along with the now famous
Leland Powers as an impersonator.

Investigation in order.

been paid 81 20 per week for boarding.
prisoners instead of the legal rate of
800, and claimed that the amount TINS
paid that official in excess of what the
law allows amounted to little over
$4,000. We RETAINED from maxine
any reference to the exposure at the
time, giving the board the benitt of
the doubt, realizing the possibility that
Meyers might have been influenced bv
party prejudice and magnified the
matter, and watched for an explana-
zion from the other side. We have
thus far, however, seen no defence of
the board beyond the attempt TO
smooth the matter over, and laugh il
OF or hide it under big blanket of
abuse OF Meyers, which we regard as
an acknowledgements the truth of his
statements. Under the circumstances
1t seems to US that, even looking at the
matter from standpoint above party
prejudice, an investigation of the
actions of our democratic board would
be qnlte in order. Manila Republican

A Sudden Mix Up.

Sunday morning the lone stage was
spinning along at lively clip, and just
as the Morrow grade was reached one
of the lead horses went off his feet and
fell to the ground. The trick was
turned SO quickly that Chris didn't
have chance to gather up the lines,
and in an instant the horses were all
piled in heap. The stage was filed
with passengers, and they had a good
scare, thinking another hold-up was
the cause of the sudden halt. When
the surprise of the moment was passed,
it was found that three of the horses
were down, and the fourth, colt,
quietly standing, and evidently wonder
ing what it all meant. With the aid of
the passengers and deacon" Peek,
the driver of the baggage wagon, the
team was unhitched, and after a few
minutes delay were ready to start.
Chris is unable to explain the action of
the horse that caused the trouble, as
he fell without STUN bling or giving the
least warning that he was going out of
business. Strange to say, there wasn' t
as much as a scratch on any of the
horses, and none of them seemed to be
any the worse for their experience.

= Give Me a Smoke.

A few days ago we heard child of
tender age say to a business man OF
Jackson, ''Give me a smoke" The
juvenile was dead in earnest, as was
evidenced by his manner as he begged
repeatedly and piteously for the weed.
When asked his age, he said he was
eleven years old, and had been in the
habit of smoking for three years. The
habit had taken such a strong hold of
him, that he seemed actually suffering
for the wherewith to satisfy his crav-
ing, as much so as confirmed smoker
of adult years. He was pale faced and
apparently delicate as might be ex-
,pected in one who had been victim of
the health destroying weed from in
fancy. He said he attended school at
Jackson Gate, but his teacher had no
authority over him except during
school hours. How boy of such years
manages to secure material to indulge
to such degree in smoking is beyond
comprehension. No doubt this is by
no means a rare occurrence. 1t is a
sample of scores of cases that exist
hereabouts. 1t shows a lamentable
lack of parental control. No wonder
SO many of our young men grow up
without ambition or aim in life when
such pernicious habits are permitted to
sap the vital forces at so early period.
