ALSO L. D. HARVEY AND c. E. PATzER
Work is to be Divided Up County Teach
ers are Cordially Invited TO be
Present

At the instigation Of the city school
principals there will be neld in the city
on Friday and Saturday an institute for
the teachers of the county. 1t is an un-
usual thing that as much talent comes
to any one locality as will be here on
the two days of the institute The prin
cipals have secured the services of the
late superintendent Of schools, l.. d.
Harvey, Prof G. E. Patzer and State
Superintendent Charles Cary. The state
superintendent of schools will be here
but for one day, and it is the hope that
80 many of the county teachers who can
will avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity.
While the institute has been organ
lied for the purpose of the giving the
city teachers the advantage that come
from such source, yet the county
teachers will be just as cordially wei,
come as those who belong to the city
proper.
This will be the first time that Mr.,
Harvey has given an institute in the
city, and this fact should insure very
large attendance. He has consented to
take the subject Of English. 1t will be
divided into composition and library
reading; English and American litera-
ture and the correlation of English with
other high school branches.
Prof. G. E. Patzer will have charge
OF the intermediate and grammar sec.
tion. His general headings arc Econ
omy of time in teaching geography
special studies in the grades and aims
of basic and supplemental reading.
Mr.. Hyer, principal of the Training
School will handle the primary depart
ment. His topic will be reading and
library work. While Supt. Christian
son will not have any control over the
institute work, yet he will be on hand
to render whatever assistance that he
can.
Supt. Cary will deliver an address be-
fore the teachers and this will probably
be on Friday. The subject of his talk
has not yet been announced, 1t is Ger
tain to be interesting, because he is con
sidered an expert on any topic that he
discusses.
The institute will be held in the First
ward public school building and it will
be open promptly at 10 o'clock in the
morning 1t behooves all to be on hand
promptly if they would reap the bene-
fits to be derived by the ,ojourn Of
these able men in the city.

Council Refuse to Warrant Pur-

'H0UGHT THE COST WAS TOO HIGH

TREE MEMBERS CAUSE OBSTRUCTION
Turn Down Came in Spite of the Recon-
mendation of tine Library Boards
P0stpOnement Wise?

A hitch has come in the choice of the
library site. The Library board after
some investigation, in conjunction with
a special committee of the council,
recommended the purchase Of the Ham
mernick property situated at the corner
of n Eighth and Chicago SITS. which
will cost $4,000. Several other pieces of
property were offered for sale notably
the Rankin property on York st. which
could be acquired at much less figure
than the Hemmernick property. The
Library board, however, thought that
this land was not suitable being some
what removed from public travel and
decided that the Hammernick property
would be the most desirable, inasmuch
as it was more centrally located and the
library could be operated at less annual
cost than if it was placed in any other
section of the city.
1t seems that the building if placed
on the Hammernick site could be heat
ed from the boilers Of the engine house
and that an annual saving III the way
of janitor service could be made.
When the subject came up for dis
cussion in the council chamber on Mon
day night, there was sufficient objection
to the Hammernick site to prevent the
passage Of an ordinance for the pur-
chase of this property hence the sub
ject is now held in alb beyence.
1t Is understood that if the Hammer
nick site is bought, that $1,000 can be
saved on salvage on the old buildings,
thus the city would only have to pay
about s., 600 for the property.
The hope is very generally expressed
that some definite conclusion will soon
be reached as to a site, because it is un-
derstood that Andrew Carnegie is very
reluctant to give money for library
building where there is jangling over
the terms
The opponents to the Library boards
recommendation are: Alderman Pohl,
Stole and Lorenzen
1t requires q two-thirds vote to make
the purchase, and the vote on Monday
checked the purchase.

ED. SCHUETTE ABOUT
EXPRESSES A SENTl-
MENT ON MUSIC

1t was the general judgment of those
who heard Kocian on the violin last
week that he is master of technique.
His ability along the line indicated is
very great indeed. To the larger num-
Der in the audience, however. his music
was out Of the reach of their education.
After one of the difficult numbers had
been rendered, Ed Schuette walked
over to where Henry Hinrichs was sit
ting and said: "Henry, If Kocian would
play On the Swaunee River he would
tickle the whole audience The re-
mark Of Mr.. Schuette about expressed
the feeling of the audience.
One of the failures of the great musi-
cal artists, in reaching the popular
heart, is that they substitute technique
for melody. The hearers want melody,
but the player thinks this is beneath
him, so the people who pay the piper
must put up with bis musical idiosyn-
crasies.

The Easy Pill

DeWitt's Little Early Risers do not
gripe nor weaken the system. They
cure billiousness, jaundice, constipation
and inactive livers, by arousing the Sc.
cretions, moving the bowls gently, yet
effectually, and giving such tone and
strength to the glands of the stomach,
liver and bowls that the cause of the
trouble is removed entirely. These
famous little pills exert decided tonic
effect upon the organs involved, and if
their use is continued for a few DAYS
there will be no return of the trouble.

lnterurban Cars did not Run; Neither
Did the City Cars

The storm which commenced on
Tuesday night and which continued the
better part Of Wednesday greatly i'm
peded travel on the country reads, so
much so, that the farmers were unable
to come to the city. 1t has been several
years since snow storm of such sever
ity visited this city and the surround
ing country. What made it very dis
agreeable was the fact of big drift at
the time the snow was descending. On
some of the country roads so bad was the
drift that the farmers we're absolutely
blocked in. This was practically the
case in the eastern part Of the county.
In those exposed portions where the
wind had a clean sweep from the
lake.
In the city the snow in come places
was banked twenty feet high. 1t was
practically impossible to keep the side
walks clear during the greater portion
of the day, because Of the high winds
towards the latter part Of the afternoon
however, the wind moderated and that
allowed the down town portion OF the
city, a chance to get the pavements
Strengthened out.
All the railroads reported trains late
from one to three hours The crifts on
the tracks in some places were quite
considerable, and the wonder was that
greater delays were not reported. The
railroad tracks are now in fairly good
shape and trains will be able to run
along the schedule time.
The men serving on the jury who live
in the country were unable to 60 home
last night owing to the condition Of the
roads. Most of them were through with
their work and had the roads been in
good shape they would have been able
to reach their homes last night.
All the merchants reported very poor
trade, There was absolutely no farmer
business, and the city trade was only
meagre because no one ventured out
who was not compelled to do so Most
of the orders went to the store by tele-
phone.
The traction cars were unable to run
during yesterday.

young Bohemian was heard to say that
it was the finest beer he had imbibed
since his visit to this country. He
claimed that he had sampled all the
