THE RURAL LIBRARY.

The state superintendent vi educa-
ton has requested the attorney gen
eral to define the meaning OF portion
OF Section ! OF the Aull Scho"!
ibrary Act, which provides that
nor more than twelve schools IN
any county IN one year. created
and operated under the general tree
school law OF the state. etc. tie wants
a definition oi the expression the
General free school law ~ the state
etc. He wants 4 definition "1 the en-
preston the general free school law
OF the state.
The attorney general holds. and
properly SO. that this expression
means just what it says. That tE'
operation OF the machinery OF 4
school, such as appointing trustees;
levving and collection OF taxes; Sc
lection OF teachers. etc, must be ex-
clusively under the general school
law, and such features that finds its
authority in a special act eliminates
such schools from the provision OF
this act.
The Columbia correspondent OF the
News and Courier seems to think
there has been some mistake III this
Library Act. because graded schools
in citiee and towns or elsewhere
created under special acis are to be
deprived OF any state or county help
for their libraries until the statute Is
amended. This provision was put III
this act purposely. The act IS tor
the provision OF creating libraries IN
rural schools, and meant to help the
children in the rural districts. who
have not the advantage OF children
in the towns and cities where graded
schools have been established In
these communities there are, If not
in the schools. libraries and books to
which the children have access. These
are not 70 be found in many OF our
country communities and this pro-
vision was put into this act for the
purpose OF confning its benefits TO
these children in the remote rural dis
rticts. The purpose OF the law is to
give these children some of the ad-
yantaees which the children in the
more favored communities have with
out state aid
If these rural schools take up the
matter and get libraries established
there can be no objection to amend
ing the act so as to extend its pro-
visions to all the schools in the state,
but until this is done the law should
remain as it is, and it is as it was IN
tended to be and the decision OF the
attorney general is in. accordance with
the purpose which the author had IN
mind when it was prepared, VIZ; to
confne it's benefits to the rural dis
tricts and the, community where chill
dren most need the help of the state
in placing at their command libraries:

When arrested the man gave his
name as BILLY Holden and said he
was a farm hand. He said he came
from Michigan to Nebraska a short
time ago. He is 35 years old.
Holden was taken back to Platte
Center, where he was recognized by
the cashier, despite the fact that he
had changed portion of his clothing
and had removed a glass eye that he
wore when he was in the bank. An
effort was made by a crowd of Platte
Center citizens to take the prisoner
from the officers and lynch him, but
Sheriff Carrig and his deputies drew
their revolvers and got the man safely
out of the way. He is now in Jail un-
der the surveillance of an armed
guard.

ceived severe injuries.

Heved to be not dangerous. The bail
struck a button on his vest and its
course was DETECTED. It has been re-
moved and he is progressing nicely.

Arrested in California.

Beth Grail, formerly of Atchison. Kan,

the United States circuit court on the
charge of impersonating a customs Off
cial. Grail claims to be the victim of
persecution at the hands of secret SER
vice officials. He charges that his ar

head of the secret service for Oregon,
Washington, Idaho and Montana and
the other Frank Burke, a detective.
Grail alleges that he was a secret as
sistant to Burke. Bell caused CralPs
arrest here on an indictment before a
Seattle. Wash, federal grand jury.

opium smuggling scheme and gained
Burke's enInity by his success. Grail is

KEEP THE GAS AT HOME.
Bonner Springs Protesting Against
Pipe Lines to Kansas City.

Kansas City, Nov. 23.-The members
of the Kansas Natural Gas Protective
association are at work among the citi-
zens of Bonner Springs in an effort to
arouse protest against piping the nat
ural gas from there out of the state.
Among those most active in working
up the protest is H. H. Kern, in charge
of Kansas exhibits at the Worlds fair.
In letters to Philo Clark and J. D. Wa
tiers. Bonner Springs citizens, he says
that Kansas City, Mo-, is drawing on
Kansas for everything, and, Eventually
they will expect us to furnish them
pure air. he says. The Bonner Springs
people are paying no attention to the
agitation, and preparations are already
under way to arrange for piping the
gas to Kansas City, after further devel-
opment of the field.
orators in the Chanute and Independ-
ence fields have visited Bonner Springs
in the last few days and 1t is said by
persons in touch with the situation
there that preparations are being made
by Kansas companies to come into the
new field The showing made in the
upper bed of gas sands, as well as IN
the lower bed, and the strong 1nd1ca-
tions of oil in two wells on the Twist
farm. has convinced the operators that
there are great possibilities in the Bon
ner Springs district. Some OF them ex-
pect to go south of the kaw river into
johnson county. The town of Spring
hill in that county has been supplied
with natural gas for eight years, found
at a depth of 400 feet in the first gas
sand bed. The supply is said to be as
strong now as it was years ago.
If the well now being drilled to the
lower bed of gas sand by Rogers &
Green, near McDanie1's lake, Bonner
Springs, proves as good as the one
drilled a thousand feet north of 1t five
years ago by D. S. Hatch, the value of
the Bonner Springs fields will be estab-
lished. The well will probably be
brought in this week and the operators
are watching it with interest.

ARRESTED FOR PERJURY.
How They Handle Witnesses in New
York Who Don't Tell Truth.

New York, Nov. 23.-Jos. Jacobs, a
detective who secured evidence against
Richard A Garfield, was arrested Tues
day by order of District Attorney
Jerome on a charge of perjury. He
was held in $1,000 bail and committed
to the Tombs in default of bail. The
arrest was based on a confession he
made to Philip ]. Britt and Gen. Benz.
F. Tracy who were counsel for Garfield
and his alleged manager, David Buck
lin. Mr.. Jerome says Jacobs asked
them that as the price of his confess
sion he be supplied with sufficient
funds by Garfield to take him out of
the Jurisdiction of the court. After be-
ing arraigned he made a fuller confess
sion to Mr.. Jerome. 1t is said by
Jerome that Jacobs would never have
been a witness against Bucklin, and
the Indictment against Garfield has al
ready been Quashed. The arrangement
for the arrest for Jacobs were made by
Mr.. Britt and Gen. Tracy in consulta
ton with Mr.. Jerome. Both Mr.. Britt
and Gen. Tracy refused to discuss the
confession of Jacobs, declaring that
they had pledged their word to Mr..
Jerome that they would disclose none
of the circumstances
All that Mr.. Jerome would say about
the confession is that he (Jacobs) con-
fesses that he lied when he said that
he had been in Canfield's house at No.
East Forty-fourth street; that he did
go as far as the inner vestibule, and
that he remained there for some time
in order he says, to deceive County
Detective O'NeiI who swore at the
original hearing that he had seen
Jacobs go into the house.

SNAPSHOTS ATnOMENEws

The wood its leafy cover sheds,
And wild geese flying high,
Trace out their dusky arrow heads
Along the gloomy sky.
And SO no longer let us roam,
BY fields and streams that freeze,
But turn to Grandma's cozy home
Behind the poplar trees.
For Grandma's hearth is warm and bright
And scents of spicy pies
In steaming vapor winding light
From Grandma's chimney rise.
And Grandma's smile is, oh. so sweet!
And who could stay away,
When all the little cousins meet
On dear Thanksgiving day.
