ALBION SCHOOLS JAM MED
Yet There rs Demand for Business De-
partment in the
High.

Albion, Mich, Oct. 1.-THE school
board, of this city, is considering the
introduction of a business department
into the high school, with courses in
shorthand, typewriting, bookkeeping
and business methods. The board is
at a loss to know where to house any
more teachers, as the present
school building is crowded and over
flowing, and the damp Easements are
being used for the manual training
department and for grade rooms. The
assembly room is so small and the
pupils have increased in numbers so
rapidly that it is no longer possible to
crowd the high school pupils all into it,
and the only meeting place where the
superintendent or the principal can raj
ly the children when it is desired to
speak to them all together is the school
yard.
In spite Of the cramped and un-
healthful conditions the voters defeat
ed in the spring project to erect new
high school building.

WYNNE GETS PAYNEs PLACE
President Roosevelt Formally Appoints
Former First Assistant Postmaster
General.

Washington, Oct II. = President
Roosevelt has announced the appoint-

master general, as postmaster gener-
al. The appointment of Wynne as a
member of the presidents cabinet was
not unexpected by those in close touch
with the situation It was known that
in the event of Payne's death theepres-
ident would designate Wynne as act
ing postmaster general because of his
familiarity as first assistant postmas-
ter general with the affairs of the de-
partment. Two days after the death
of Payne the president so designated
Wynne, and to those Of his friends to
whom he talked confdentially of the
subject he indicated his intention, if
there should be no change in the sit
uation, of naming him as postmaster
general until such time as George B.
Cortelyou. chairman of the Republican
national committee, could so arrange
his affairs as to assume the duties of
postmaster general.
Wynne had not been in the Office
Of the first assistant many months be-
fore he became convinced that some Of
the affairs Of the department were not
being conducted honestly. He insisted
that an investigation should be made,
at least of his own bureau, as it was
there he had made his discoveries. Aft

Payne decided to act upon Wynnes
recommendation and order an investi-
