Music In The Schools.

The action taken by the board of
education at their meeting Monday
relative to the teaching of vocal music
in the city schools, is a commendable
one, and one that will be welcomed
by great number Of our people. It
is true that it increases the cost Of
maintaing the schools a trif1e, and
take up some of the time that the
pupils might otherwise give to other
studies, but on the other hand it is a
diversion, and in the, end the pupils
will be better off than they are with
out it. 1t is a plain fact that the
ability to sing, and the training of
that ability, constitutes an entry into
society that no other accomplishment
gives, and it is also fact that unless
pupils secure this training in the pub
lie schools at the expense of the dis
trict, many of them will never get it.
AS far as the extra expense is con-
cerned, that is very light, and cuts no
figure in the case at all.

MUST FIGHT THE NANCE
Twenty-eight Stock Raising Counties in
Kansas Quarantined,

Topeka, Kansas. June 8.-Governor
Bailey has issued a proclamation to
re-establish the live stock quarantine
against mango, which, according to
the state sanitary commission, is
spreading. The commission last
week addressed the following COM
munication to Governor Bailey.
For the protection of the livestock
interests of Kansas, and to prevent
the dissemination of contagious,
infectious or communicable disease
among the same, we beg to report to
your excellency that parasitic disease
known as itch or mango resembling
scabies in sheep is prevalent among
the cattle of Kansas, and exists to a
remarkable extent in the western
portion of Kansas.
The counties referred to are
occupied by cattle owners, and
principally used in large open ranges
or large pastures, and it will require
the most stringent measures to stamp
out this disease, which is rapidly
encroaching upon the non-infectious
counties of the central and eastern
porf ions of the state.
Therefore, we respectfully request
your excellency to issue a proclama-
ton, continuing in operation quaran-
tine upon the following named
counties, to-wit: Cheyenne, Rawlins,
Decatur, Sheridan, Thomas, Sherman,
Cove, Logan, Wallace, Greeley,
Wichita, Scott, LaLe. Ness, Hodge
man, Finney, Kearney, Hamilton,
Stanton, Grant, Haskell, Gray, Ford,
Morton, Stevens, Seward, Meade and
Clark, and temporary quar- antine on
all the infected pastures in the balance
of the state, and prohibit the move
ment of cattle in any manner, by rail,
trail or wagons, excepting in accord
ance with the rules and regulations
which have been adopted by this
board and are herewith submitted to
you for your consideration and
approval.
M. c. Campbell, H. P. Hood, J.
H. Johnson, Live Stock Sanitary
Commission.
Governor Bailey's proclamation
quarantining the above named
counties goes into effect Immediately,
and is in conformity with the state
quarantine law governing such cases.

Express officials as usual,say the loss

IS small
Two of the bandits had boarded
the train before, and were hiding on
the baggage car, and appeared on the
tender as their confederates stopped
the train. Express messenger Shea
refused to open the express car door
when ordered to do so, and stacked
the baggage against the door. The
robbers then dynamited the door, and
made Shea assist in opening the safe.
Among the the booty secured are said
to be two bags of gold. Two posses
are in pursuit of the robbers.
