SCHOOL OPENED MONDAY
Large EnI ollment and Rooms
Closely Crowded.

The Grants Pass public schools
opened on Monday with by far the
largest enrolment of their history
for the opening of term. The
teachers have been so busted with
their work that the exact number of
the enrolment has not yet been COM
puted, but it is probably somewhere
in the neighborhood of 500 New
scholars to the number of 1888, who
have never attended school here be-
fore, have been received, new comers
from 26 or % states of the union.
The pupils are badly overcrowded and
the completion of the new school
house is anixously awaited, that the
congestion may be relieved. The
board OF directors have procured IA
number of chairs as an adjunct to the
seating capacity of the several rooms
and an additional teacher, Miss Mae
Phipps of Medford, has been employed
for the City hall room, where two
teachers are compelled to occupy one
apartment. The now school building
will be completed in about month.
Many who will be pupils have not yet
arrived in town aud the enrolment
will increase rapidly during the next
two months. A total force of II
teachers are employed.

RUN OVER BY ICE WAGON
Little BERTHE williams Astound-
ing Experience.

BERTHE Williams, the six year old
son of Mrs. G.. ID. Williams of this
city, was run over by a heavy wagon,
loaded with ice, on Thursday, and
that Ne survived the experience and
is recovering, seems almost miracul-
GUS
The teams which were hauling ice
from the water company's plant at
the river to the railroad yards for
shipment passed in trout of the Will
Jams residence ON West Front street
and sometimes BERTHE would go out
and get piece of ice. This time he
was playing in the streets when the
wagon came along. The boy has not
been able to give very coherent ac-
count of what happened, but he seem
cd to have climbed on the wagon and,
his fingers slipping from the ice
to have fallen between the
wheels. The rear wheel nipped a
piece from his knee, tearing loose the
knee cap and passed over his body
just above the hips. 1t was a heavy
transfer wagon and with its load of
ice it seems almost incredible that
the boy could be run over on the hard
road bed without being cut in two,
but the condition of his body clearly
showed that such was the case. The
driver went on up the street totally
unconscious of the accident. I'M
assisted except for his little dog the
boy managed to get as far as the front
gate where he lay down ON the
ground, unable to proceed further.
He was carried into the house and
medical assistance was Immediately
summoned. His body was found
to be terribly cut and bruised and his
recovery was Mt first considered ex-
tremely doubtful but nc the present
time he is improving nicely and is
thought to be out Of all probable
danger.

"A.
Senator M!lburn, who came next, created
some amusement by the boomerang state
ment that Mr.. Shively led the party when
II meant something to be Democrat. He
launched into forid praise and character
lied Mr.. Shively as .'Indiana's greatest
man."

declared that the workshops and the fac
tories are demanding the return of Senator
Fairbanks THE cry is send him back,
said Senator Burns, land We, as the repre-
sentatives of the people, are glad that we
can do So" Mr.. Burns read extracts from

the rapt attention of the senator's, repre-
sentatives and the visitors for a brief time
as he enumerated the services of the dis
tinguished senator.
The closing speech of nomination was
made by Senator Edgar A. Hendee, of An
derson, who made distinct impression.
His address was witty and polished. 1T
may be we'll said of the minority" Mr.
Hendee declared. that tits better to have

ALL There is another sentiment which
think must have been written by great
Democrat that is particularly applicable in
this case, The saddest words of tongue or
pen are these few words it might have
been. He paused a few minutes until the
laughter subsidized laughter in which even
the Democrats joined heartily.
Senator Hendee asserted that Mr.. Fair
banks is the friend of labor before and
after election; that he is the friend of CAPT.
tai before and after election, and that he is
the friend of labor and capital before and
after election. A peculiar falling infection
of his expressive voice, when he came each
time to the phrase, after election, added
immensely to its effect.
He closed his speech with the remark
that in seconding Mr.. Fairbanks he repre-
scented the whole United States-South Car
DINA, Virginia, Oregon and all-becauSe, ne
said, the return of Senator Fairbanks is
something that the whole country is vitality
interested in.
Lieutenant Governor Gilbert, with the
facetious remark that he supposed no
other nominations were to be made, or
dered that the roll be called. The vote was
on straight party lines. Every Republican
senator was in his seat and every vote was
for Fairbanks" All the Democrats save
two were present, and every Democratic
voice called "Shivey." Senator Will H..
OBrien, of Lawrenceburg. and Senator
johnson, of Charlottesville, Democratic
members, were unavoidably absent, but the
record was made to show that they would
have voted for Mr.. Shively. The vote, as
read by the Lieutenant Governor, was 80
for Fairbanks and 13 for Shively.
"a most unlucky thirteen for the Demo-
Gratis, / should say in this connection" re-
marked the Lieutenant Governor.
