INCREASE IN CHILDREN.

Large Increase in School Population
Of the State 10 Shown by the School
Census Recently Completed by state
Department Of Public Instruction.
The school census of the state of
North Dakota, figures from which have
been compiled by the state depart
ment of pubic instruction, show an in
crease of children of school age in the
state from 1O3,72S in 1902 to III ,O34 in
1903, an increase of 1906 children or
seven per cent. Some remarkable IL
creases in school population have been
made, showing the growth of the state
from the large immigration of the past
few years. Mclean county shows an
increase from 1852 children to 2,434,
an increase of 70 per cent. Williams
county shows as average increase OF
SO per cent, Bottineau 81 per cent.
Logan q per cent, Burleigh 1S per
cent, McHenry % per cent, Stark IS
per cent, Stutsman IA per cent, Nor
ton IA per cent, Pierce 16 per cent, and
other counties show percentages rang
ing from to s per cent The older
settled counties in the state do not
show such remarkable increases Cass
and Traill show Increase of less than
one per cent Grand Forks shows
similarly small increase the figures of
increase indicating to which counties
the large immigration has come. Only
one county in the state shows a de-
| crease, Pembina, which has fallen of
21h per cent, from 5,7S1 to 5,632
The apportionment of the interest
and income fund for August, just COM
pleted by the department distributes
$e6,620.40 to the children of school
! age of the state for school purposes,
being at the rate of 60 cents a child
The increase of school children in
Ward county does not properly appear
in the census, as the department has
received the figures only from the new
districts that have been organized. The
department thinks that when the fig
ures of increase from the old districts
are received, Ward county will show
an increase of at least GO per cent.
The following table shows the school
census of the state by counties and
the increase:

NOT YET DECIDED.
Question of Establishing a Dental
School at Washburn.

It was not definitely settled at the
conference between the Washburn col
lege authorities and Coach Kennedy of
the football team whether DR.. Kennedy
will come here to Topeka to live. The
matter has been referred to the board
Of trustees, and the settlement depends
entirely on whether or not Washburn
decides to establish a dental school.
If the Washburn trustees decide that
such a school can be made to pay any
reasonable portion Of it's expenses, one
will be established. Otherwise, the
project will be dropped, and Washburns
football team will lose the services of
Kennedy next fall
If Kennedy coaches anywhere, he will
coach Washburn. But he will not agree
60 come here simply to act as coach of
the team. He insists that he must be
given work as a demonstrator in the
dental school. The report that Ken
nedy has been offered the position of
dean Of the dental school is a mistake.
If the school is founded, DR.. A. H.
Thompson will doubtless be dean.
The trustees will hold a meeting
within few weeks to decide whether
Washburn can afford to undertake to
found a dental school in Topeka. It will
involve large outlay of money to pur-
chase the necessary equipment and it
would probably be a considerable time
before the school would even pay run
ming expenses

TWO JOINT RAIDS.
Police Get Four Wagon Loads of
Saloon Fixtures.


In two joint raids last night the po-
lice captured four wagon loads of fix
lures, and hauled them all to the sta
furniture which was not necessarily a
part of the joint paraphernalia. AT
Nick Lonergan's place, 115 East Sixth
avenue, they got three wagon loads,
among the plumber being a chiffonier.
The Lonergan place is prepared for a
siege. The police may clean out the
barroom every day, but business will be
good within an hour. A back room is
filled with bars, ice chests and other
joint furniture, and a call for the ice
man and another for the wholesaler is
all that is necessary. Lonergan was
arrested last night, but gave bond in a
short time. Those in charge of the
place at Sol Kansas avenue were not so
fortunate, however. M. Perry, the bar
tender, and Charles Humbert were ar
rested Humbert was charged with in
terfering. He evinced a desire to keep
the police out when they tried to break
in. Both Perry and Humbert failed to
get bond, and spent the night in jail.
The plumber consisted of a jug of whis-
ky and the bar fixtures.
Three jointists had hearing in police
escaped. Nick Lonergan was dis
charged, and case against Harve
Wheeler was dismissed. James Sheas-
ley, who formerly ran the national at
70S Kansas avenue. was found guilty
and given the customary fine for an
arrest made December II. Sheasley has
been in no way connected with the place
since December 1, which fact will easily
clear him in district court.

PLEA FOR THE UNION.
=. Z. Behrens,of Missouri, Delivers an
Address

At Representative hall last night E.
T. Behrens, who is president of the Mis-
souri, State Federation of Labor, made
an address before a mass meeting of
laboring men on the subject: What is
the Laboring Man to Do?" Mr.. Behrens
is deeply impressed with the idea that
the laboring classes should without de-
lay open hostilities against the forces
of capital" To accomplish his object
the 1aborer should first ally himself
with Il labor union. With all the labor
of the country solidified Mr.. Behrens
announced that the control of the gov
eminent would be simple smatter.
The law of inheritance was pronounce
ed by the speaker to be one Of the
greatest curses of the country. He said
that upon a mans death his accumu-
lations should be devoted to the inter-
ests of the plain working people and
his family placed upon it's own re-
sources. He favored arbitration for the
settlement of labor differences but de-
clared against political compromises.

HISS ROOSEVELT REFUSES.
Will Not Settle for Bridesmaids
Gown She Didn't Wear

Washington, Dec. 19.-The bearing of
this tale lays In the application on it ~
as Cap'n Cutie used to say.
-Four young women, including Miss
Roosevelt daughter OF the president,
think the story is humorous. A dress
maker thinks it is tragic.
Miss Roosevelt and Miss Carolyn
Postlethwaite were to be bridesmaids at
the McCauley-Tuckerman wedding.
They had their frocks made like the
frocks of the other brideSmaidS-pink
ones with thingumbobs on them. Then
Miss Roosevelt's uncle died and Miss
PostIethwaite was i'll and neither could
be a bridesmaid.
HI this happened the day before the
wedding. There was great scurry to
get other bridesmaids and bridesmaids
who could wear the prink frocks intend
ed for Miss Roosevelt and Miss Pos
tlethwaite, for there was no time to
make new ones. Two girl substitutes of
the same figure were found, Miss Alice
Gordon Tucker and Miss Florence Field
They wore the frocks and the wedding
was joyful, although it lacked the pres
ence of the first daughter Of the land
That was some time ago. Now the
dressnaker wants her pay for the pink
frocl1s. Miss Roosevelt and Miss Pos
tlethwaite say they can't possibly pay
for the frocks, because they didn't wear
them and never have.
Miss Tucker and Miss Field say they
shall not pay, because they didn't order
the frocks and they were not made for
them
Meantime a highly respected dress
maker is in a sad state of mind.

MccolIum,g New method.

Chief McCollum has advertised to close
the joints by new method, which was
tried under the StahI regime, that is: the
arrest of owners of or agents of property
who rent to jointists. 1t is fact that
there is a state law behind the city ordi-
nance which deems an agent for any
property renting it for use as place
guilty of assisting in the maintaining of
a nuisance Mr.. McCollum thinks that all
he will have to do will be to notify prop
erty owners or agents and they will make
haste to get rid of their tenants. An IN
terview with f. NJ. Stahl, who was the
most persistent joint fighter Topeka mas
ever seen, would convince McCollum that
he is Iaboring under delusion.
