Shortage OF state Funds.

According to an estimate prepared by
Auditor Holmberg. says the Denver
News of August 18th. not one of the
state schools and but few of the state
haritabie Institutions will receive any
money this year under the new appro-
priation bill. The recent action of the
state board of assessors In cutting the
valuation of property in accordance
with the cuts made by the state board
Of equalization on the corporate in
terests in the state. has decreased the
revenue for this year something more
than S150.600
The legislature. at the extra session.
appropriated money nearly $20O0.000 in
excess OF the expected revenue. and
this with the 100000 reduction made
by the assessors shows $350,000 in
funds lacking to meet the Items in the
appropriation bin.
The worlds fair appropriation is one
of the most important Of these. This
appropriation is in the fourth class.
and there hardly seems hope now of 1t
being paid. Commissioner-in-Chi
Paul Wilson says, however. that Gov
ernor Peabody has assured him that
the money will be forthcoming, and he
is going ahead with his work.
The state officials have prepared the
following list of the items in the appro-
priation bill that will probably be turn
ed down.

 The artificial production of pearls in large quantities is a simple problem. in the view of Dr. II. Eyster Jameson. One cause of pearl formation proves to be a worm, which has its origin in the cookie or tapestry she'll" from which the larvae pass to the mussel and may be eaten with the latter by the cider or scoter, reaching maturity in the intestines of these birds. If the larvae remain il the mussel long enough pearls are formed, With full knowledge of the life histories of these parasites, it is believed that pearl oy- sters or pearl mussels may be infected 10 any desired extent by placing them in infected company. and the infected can then be left to themselves in suitable beds until the pearls are sufficiently developed.

A prominent clergyman in Boston, who IS actively identified with missionary work, has recently been preparing some eolofed clefgymen from the south for missionary work.

WILLIAM WALT DEAD.
In Lifting Hayrack from Wagon He
Ruptures Blood Vessel in Brain.

Huron, S. D., Nov. 16.-William Walt,
aged about 60 years, died very sud
denly Wednesday morning. The aft
ernoon previous MI. Walt drove from
his home in this city to the farm resi-
dence of II. a. Palmer, a few miles
southwest of the city, where he was to
do some work. In assisting to remove
a hayrack from a wagon he is sup
posed to have ruptured a blood vessel
at the base of, the brain. At the time
he felt a sharp pain in the back of his
neck, but the sensation soon passed
away. About O'clock in the morning
Mr.. Palmer heard groans emanating
from the room occupied by Mr.. Walt
and on opening the door discovered Mr.
Wait in great agony. A physician was
at once summoned, and Mrs. Walt sent
for, but he was unconscious when they
arrived and soon expired. Mr. Walt re-
moved from his farm to this city about
two years since, having been quite sue
cessful as a farmer and stockman. He
was among the early settlers of the
county and an enterprising and thrifty
citizen. He leaves a wife and one son.

done with a view to inducing outside

It has been suspected that Mr. Mar

the contents of the stomach have been

termine if poison had been administer
ed. Tests were made here for several
