The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1904-08-26

At this time when the eyes and at
tention of the entire civilized world
are focused on Russia, the car and
his great army in the far east, the
horoscope Of Nichilas II. should prove
of interest, even to those who do not
believe that the position of certain
planets about the time of PERSONS
birth has anything whatever. to do
with the ups and downs of life.
The car was born at ST. Peters
burg, May 18, 1868. The time of day
was noon, or to get the time down to
astrological nicely at II h, Sc m, IA s,
a. M, st. Petersburg time. Accord
ing to horoscope published in an
astrological magazine called "Des.
tiny" there were untoward aspects in
the heavens about that time which
determine that the car at this time
is in a most terrible position.

ship would be absolutely helpless. It
was a hard thing to do, but there
didn't seem to be any alternative. The
ship was reversed and put back to St.
Helena. 'Scotchy' was occupying the
identical position we had left him In
on his black gold mine. This time he
was a trife more interested, because
he knew we were going to trade with
him. He. gave us his philosophy in
this way: He had been sitting on that
coal pile for eighteen months, waiting
for ship to come that had to have
it. He observed from the height OF
the Vanderbilt above the water that
she came in light, and that her officers
would not dare risk stdAn while
she stood up SO high. Our return did
not surprise him bit, and he soon
got his men to work and loaded 1000
tons in the hold, for which tie federal
government paid $S0,n00s He said

assuming in manner, with both the
ability and the desire to do his duty,
he stands surrounded by friends and
counselors who are false and decep-
tive, and by enemies who are power
full and unyielding.
He Is not robust man, and his
constitution is by no means strong
His nervous system is weak and de-
ranged, and he lacks stamina and
force of will. Heavenly signs at the
time of his birth foreordained that
fate would be too powerful for his
weak frame and feeble will to stand
against.
All of these doomful, dubious signs
the astrologer who ciphered out the
horoscope interprets as disastrous.
The portents point to the defeat of
Russian arms in the present struggle
with Japan, internal eruptions in the
great empire of the bear, humiliation,
dismemberment, and death of the
czar.

Sure of Part Of Il.

Among the duties of DR.. Hedden'a
Office boy, who was somewhat averss
to overexertion, was the emptying and
reflling the water cooler every morn
ing. Archie, the boy, sometimes
neglected the emptying part of his
task, and one morning the doctor,
when he had swallowed a copious
draught of the water, was conscious
of foul taste in the liquid.
Archie" he called, ''is this water
fresh?"
"Ye-e.s, sir" answered Arches, hes
itatingly.
The doctor noticed the hesitation, 50
he repeated severely:
"Archie, are you sure this water is
fresh?"
"Part of it is" naively answered
Archie.-New York Times.

see, the government could not tell on
what part of the earth's surface its
war vessels might have to cruise In
their chase for privateers and other
craft menacing its operations, and, OF
course, could not make arrangements
for coal. As consequence the cap

Superintendent Fox Preparing
to Arouse More Public

superintendent Tox, OF the city schools,
has prepared the following instructions
to the school officers OF the city, and
they have been adopted by subcom-
inittee from the board:
IAN important step for popularizins
the public schools Is to arouse the In
terest Iof the patrons. This would beei,,
naturally, by interesting them In the
buildings to which they send their chill
dren. This can be done most readily,
perhaps, by offering the patrons special
Opportunities for visiting the schools 10
which their children 60. and by special
work for their entertainment The estab-
lishment Of some form Of patrons day
is, therefore, much to be desired.
Tho board wishes you, accordingly

schools are open to visitors at oil times,
and invite parents to attend whenever
1t suits them.

school at any time. Probably a few will
como at a time, and tho principal can
show them around.
(S) Every week to select one Of your
rooms for such exhibition. to. be used
In the forenoon and in tho afternoon OF
different days. Notify the children in
this room several days In advance that
they invite and urge their parents to
visit their school on the day designated
anu within the specified hours. Continue
this until all the schools have been visit
ed, then begin again at the beginning,
though the same order need not neces-
sar!ly bo followed. Make this a. regular
weekly exercise.
Meantime. let the teacher make prepn-
ration for the day by arranging lii pleas
ing form specimens of the pupils work,
50 that they can DO readily seen, and
also be prepared to exhibit the regular
grade work In her most skillfu manner.
do not permit the teachers to devote
too much time to making preparation for
entertainment, but allow the visitors to
see the real work OF the school,

have an opportunity Of meeting their
patrons ,and by their consideration and
courtesy, remove difficulties and pro-
