Up To THE INSURANCE COMPANIES
Speculation as to What They Will Do in Consequence
of Judge Carland's Decision.

Judge Garland Of the federal court
Sf Sioux Falls, having given his de-
cision in the anti-company case, which
sustains the demurrer of the state and
practically upholds the law, it is now
up to the foreign insurance companies
to make their last move, and there is
much speculation as to what they will
do.
Preston & Hannett of Mitchell, who
are the attorneys for the thirty com
panies that are represented in the fight
on the law. said before the case was
commenced that it was expected that
IL the companies lost they would carry
the case to the circuit court of appeals
at ST. Louis. and perhaps to the supreme
court at Washington.

MAY LOSE SCHOOLS.
County Superintendent Hartranft De-
nounces the System Strongly.

SEATTLE, Nov. 2S.-About doz-
en- first-class teachers of King county
now engaged in the work will lose
their schools because they failed il
the recent examinations, and in con-
SEQUENCE cannot have their certiti
Gates renewed This unfortunate re-
suit is characterized by County Su-
perintendent Hartranft, as dis
graceful outrage" He says:
1T is simply disgraceful that sue
cessful teachers in the primary oe-
partments should be deprived of then
schools and put out of their PROBES
sion because they are unable to
answer a sufficient percentage Of ques-
tions propounded to them IN highef
branches which they are never re-
uuired to teach. They could pass
better examinations in the work OF
their own departments than the ex-
amining board or the officials who
prepare the questions. The offlcers
are not to blame. 1t is the system
created by a law which should have
been modified years ago.
Worst of all, these women VINO
failed passed these same examinations
when they were fresh from scnooi
themselves. No memory can holo
everything forever, and after several
years spent in teaching the primary
branches these teachers have simply
become rusty upon technical subjects
which they once understood. Ihey
never have occasion to teach them IN
their schools, and their techncal
knowledge of the subjects fades from
their minds. There is no sense III
expecting teachers in the lower graoes
to carry high school learning IN the'r
heads when they never use IT.
Forty applicants failed in the e1-
aminatfons of week before last out OF
40 who undertook the test. Pro1'
believes that a large ma
iority of these are competent teachers
and he saws most of them have taught
But the amazing para
dox is presented Of active teachers
being put out of business IN the prl-
mary department because they DO
not carry heads full of higher mathe-
matics and natural science.

POSTMiSTRESS TO STRENUOUS
when the Mayor Refused to Remove
His Hat She Shot It off
His Head.

w WASHINGTON, Nov. eS.-Texas
difference due a lady" and insists
upon being treated with courtesy. Her
methods of enforcing politeness, how
ever, are somewhat strenuous and the
postoffice department has sent an in
Spector to investigate. Action was
taken in reply to a letter received
here from the sheriff of the town in
question in which that official says
We don't set up any claim that our
manners are all they should be, but
helped along. The postmistress here
IS a worthy woman, all right, and
there amt a thing against her charac-
Ter, but she certainly is rude and
nasty. One day last week the mayor
being some flushed up and careless,
refused to remove his hat and bow
on asking for the official mail, where
lpOn his hat was shot off and plumb
ruined, and he left the postoffice so
swiftly and undignified that it told
against the standing of the town.
There's another thing we don't
think is fair. This pOstmistress won't
let niggers and greasers come into the
office under any consideration. We
amt over fond of greaserS and mig
gers ourselves, but it is sure discom-
moding for the leading citizens to have
to go to the postoffice personally to
get their mail, just because this lady
don't like to see anything but a gen
tleman. We don't like to appear fault
finding and picayunish where a lady
is concerned but this one I'm talking
about is sure arbitrary and abrupt,
and we'd like to have her toned down
some"
Mr.. Bristow thought the case de-
served consideration. and dispatched
an inspector to the scene. The in
spector has been instructed for
safety's sake to remove his hat on
entering the office. Mr.. BristOw says
he has lots of work for his inspectors
Just now, and doesn't care to have it
decreased suddenly by the loss OF a
man.

THE CARS
WEDDING
Its Anniversary Was
Celebrated Today.
MARRIED BY CZARINA'S ILLNESS
The Impression of the Russian EN-
peror Formed During His
Visit to Berlin.
MARRIED BY CZARINA'S ILLNESS

BERLIN, Nov. 2S.-Germans who
we'll remember the girlhood days of
Princess Alix at Darmstadt can scarce
ly realize the fact that it is nine
years today since she became the
bride of the Car of all the Russians.
During the last few weeks she has
again visited the scenes Of her happy
youth looking little older than when
she left nearly a decade ago
The visit to Darmstadt and
Wiesbaden and the return later for
the funeral of little Princess Elizabeth
of Hesse afforded the Germans a good
opportunity of viewing the czar at
close range. In all truth it must be
said that the impression left by his
imperial majesty was distinctly ia
vorable one. In view of the conflicting
statements that flood the European
press regarding the czar's personality
and the state of his health, the fol-
lowing written by a prominent jour-
naist who had facilities for close OBJ
servation during the recent stay of
Nicholas II. on German soil, is not
without interest.
The czar, says the writer, has just
body enough to maintain and sheath
a high strung nervous system. One
can hardly realize that he is he, so
modest, quiet and unaffected is his
bearing. He is refined without being
finical delicate without effeminency.
Though extremely impressionable and
emotional, he behaves like a man of
cold nature and keeps under all cir
cumstances level head. His good
form was modesty itself, unalloyed
with shyness and one thought the dis
position must be obliging. A pair Of
candid, kindly, blue eyes bring him
at once into touch with those who
meet his gaze. They are full eyes
and a little like those of Alexander II.
but do not like Alexander's, express
mOurnful sense of solitude.
The under part of the face, however,
shows the habit of reticence. The
cars impressiOnable nerves are sell
dom without the curb. But he can
not when stirred prevent the nervous
centers suddenly drawing to them
selves all the blood in his body; this
makes his pallor striking and brings
on state that ought to but does not
make him Quiver all over like
strongly excited thoroughbred horse.
Doctors might say from this that he
is case" He is not. One detects
no morbidness. His cool, deliberate
manner excludes the idea that he is
morbid. l should say he has good
sense, ability to bend his mind to toll
and cleverness
