Yours for Business,

II any pupil in the county has a better
record than that we would like to hear
of it.
The best educated teacher in the rural
school work in the county, if not in the
state, is Mr. Kennedy Brooks Of the East
Hollow school west Of Joplin. MIR.
Brooks is an A. M, and has done post.
graduate work at Ann Arbor and in Ber-
lin. In consenting to teach his own
school, Mr.. Brooks avs be is actuated
solely by desire to do some good TO the
children Of the poor miners in his neigh
borhood. He has taught there two
but says he cannot afford to devote fur.
ther time to the work.
Very little has been done throughout
the country towards improving school
premises. But few shade trees are to be
seen. The Garden Dell school near
Alba is an exception. There are others
The ard of the Whitehall school north
of Oronogo is dotted with evergreens.
The effect is pleasing.
Three of the rural buildings are stone
| two brick aud the rest frame structures.
One house is equipped with home III ide
furniture.
The Pleasant Grove or Brush College
school in "the Neck" is enjoying new
location this year The Carthage d
Western railway nov crosses the old site.
The district having the smallest ter
ritory is East Hollow. II has but one
aud one fourth sections. As the land
has II mining value, the assessed valua-
ton is larger than that OF other districts.
The district with the lowest valuation is
| Viewband, near Medoc. Its valuation
is "a little less than $1,000. The district
with the smallest enumeration is Lone
Star district just west Of Carthage.
There were but IL children enumerated
in that district last May.
Tho wealthiest districts maintaining
bat oneroom schools are the Spring Hill
district Maple Grove and tho High Hill
district southwest OF Carthage. The
valuation of each af thess districts eY-
ceeds $4,000. The last named district
bears the distinction of owning 40 acres
land. The house IS situated on this
tract which was given To the district
many years ago by Judge Hornback.
The house itself is old and poorly loca ed.
Many districts need new houses. Some
buildings now in. use have ste cd for more
than 30 years and are badly dilapidated

JASPER COUNTY SCHOOLS.
INTERESTING NOTES COMPILED
COUNTY SUPT.
Eight Thoroughly Modern Buildings
--rIany New lSchooI Houses
Needed.

There are thoroughly modern school
houses in the rural districts of jasper
county. They are all in the eastern half
Of the county. These buildings are
supplied with ventilating systems, are
properly lighted. and are. furnished with
the up-to-date furniture including single
seats aud slate blackboards. Perhaps a
dozen other buildings are comparatively
new and comfortable, but lack some Of
the modern features, usually the ven
tilatiUg system.
10 the rural schools there are fortyfour
male teachers and ninety five female.
10 the city and village schools there are
thirty two males aud two hundred aud
thirteen females. The total number Of
teachers in the county is three hundred
and eighty four.
Joplin township has but one one-room
school. Galena township has but two.
The dense population 10 these townships
renders it necessary to employ more thar
one t. aCher.
Outside Of the incorporated city and
village schools, the county has II two.
room schools, two three.rOom schools,
one four-ropm school and two five room
schools. Several OF these are talking of
organizing as village schools at the April
election. Six districts are eligible to
such organization.
One district maintains two separate
schools. This district lies west OF Joplin
and includes the two mining camps,
Central City aud Cave Springs. Each
camp has its school.
Perhaps the oldest teacher in point of
service is Mr.. Arthur Cooper OF the
Mineral school at Mansur station. He
has been doing most excellent work 10
the rural schools for about quarter of a
century.
Seven vacancies have occurred in the
rural school SO far this year. One teach
or bought store, one quit to get married
one secured position in the Carthage
schools, aud the others quit for Other
reasons. Another young lady will esign
in a few days, but she does not wsnt the
fact published yet.
Mary Weng, hn IL yearold pupil in the
New Hope school near Ayilla, has not
been absent nor tardy for three years

Great Western.

The work OF filing the big pit is be-
ginning to show up at this property
and for the first time those engaged
i'm the work can see daily evidences OF
advancement. This work is being
prosecuted with the assistance 0: a
steam shovel and three railroad CARS.
The sand is loaded onto the fiat cars,
showed out over the pit and the steam
unloader whisks IL Off and down the
sides into the pit. Below all of the
drifts and openings leading from the
caved rooms To other parts OF the
mine have been bulk-headed and, in
future operations, this part OF the
property will not be disturbed. a
large arch will be left TO support the
sand and pillars at regural intervals
will assist in supporting the arch.
1t 1t thought that by this arrange
ment the mine may be worked success
fully at greater depth.
The workmen found great deal OF
difficulty with water during their first
filling operations and TO obviate this
difficulty pump was put In and the
pit drained to the ledge. Since that
time no trouble has been encountered
and the filling has been proceeded
with rapidly.
About 80 men are employed i'm all
quarters at this property. 1t is the
headquarters for the CONFERENCE.-The
ney company in the district and all OF
the machine shops etc are located at
this property which accounts in a
great measure for the number OF men
employed.

year. When the shipping season
closed the operators found that much
development work would be necessary
II the property was to make any out
put and accordingly the large force at
the mine was maintained throughout
the winter catching up with last
years output. Had IL not been for
these conditions il is doubtful II the
force would have been maintained
throughout the winter.
The future work at the property
will be governed almost exclusively by
the condition of iron affairs at the
opening Of navigation. Should the
owners be successful In marketing a
respect able amount of Bristol ore the
mine will be worked. Should they
not be so successful then the work is
liable TO slack off as the local end will
be about caught up with development
by the opening of navigation.

MINING NOTES OF THE DISTRICT
Bristol Catching up on Development
Great Western Pit Being
Filled Up.

The efforts that have been made by
the ore sellers TO get together and fix
prices on ore for the coming year have
all flashed in the pan, the independent
operators baking at the price which
the Steel corporation and couple OF
large consuming interests tried 10
have adopted. The restriction OF out
put to 100000 tons was another
feature that didn't take with the in
dependents. Corrlgan Mckinney x
Co., are credited with being the main
spoke in the opposition wheel and il
was finally determined that nothing
could be done. The opposition of the
Corrigan-McKinney people was due
principally to the fact that they felt
that they could 90 it alone TO better
advantage than they could tie up to
the consuming interests.
The royalty arrangements on the
big Stevenson mine are such that the
greater output the less the charges.
With their Crystal Falls mines the
greater the output the lower will be
their general fixed charges and with
these conditions present the concluded
to sell all the ore that they can at a
less price. This position on the part
OF the Corrlgan-M Mckinney interests
willprobably mean good deal to
Crystal Falls as IL means that there
will be no restrictions OF output on
the mines that are at work here.

In this ward but little has been said

in the second ward of this city. Mr..

porter so last Monday. Mr.. Bjork has
been supervisor for two terms and has
made careful and conscientious OH
cial.
VIM. Galbraith will be candidate
TO succeed himself as constable.

The only candidate that has shown
up so far in this ward is Lou Miesler
who will run for alderman. Jacob

TOWNSHIP.
Captain Richards will be a candi-
date TO succeed himself as supervisor.
No candidate has been mentioned TO
oppose him and IL is doubtful If any
will be. For Clerk, VIM. Pengilly,
who was appointed TO succeed Rob.
Webb will be candidate TO succeed
himself. Dan Boyle will be candi-
date for the Office of treasurer and
Ole Hager will try for road commits
sioner. These are all the names that
have been mentioned TO date but IL is
likely that there will be opposition on
all OF the minor offices.
HEMATITE
What promised TO be contest de-
void Of candidates seems TO be shaping
itself for quite a scrap. Captain
Cowling seems to have the backing OF
the Michigan and Hemlock mines for
supervisor. 1t is stated that Chris
Rowe will try for the position and
that Mr.. Heath will also contest the
election. For Clerk we have heard
the names OF Percy Edwards and VIM.
Uren mentioned. Politics have began
TO stir up In that township and there
is liable TO be quite contest.
MANSFIELD.
Interest centers in the contest for
supervisor. AS stated couple OF
times the contestants are Ed. Mitchell
and Wm. Wall. For Clerk Harry
Morrison seems TO have no opposition.
For treasurer there are several candi-
dates but we have not learned their
