BOOKS OF THE SCHOOLS
ACCOUNTS OF THE AGRICUL-
 TURAL INsTTTUTIoNS.
Examiner G. 2. sedberry Reports on Finances of Those Located at Athens, Albertvills, Hamil-
 ton and Dlountsville.

Reports were filed yesterday with Gov ernor keIks by Assistant Examiner or Public Accounts George F. Sedherry upon the books of four district asricuiturel schools of the State. The treasurer books of each of the nine schools nave been examined and reported upon.
 The books were examined for the trans fer of the office of Treasurer. Under the old law each of the nine schools had treasurer who was elected by the Board of Control which under the old system was composed of men living in the vicin- ity of the school. The last Legislature placed the control of the schools under State Board composed of State officials. This board at its first meeting created the ofice of Secretary-Treasurer for the nine schools. It was provided that this officer, who should live in Montgomery, should serve all nine of the schools. To this place Chief Clerk H. c. Gunneis or the State Educational Department, was elected.
 The books of all the schools have been examined preliminary to the transfer Of the books and authority of the treasur' CTS.
 The books reported upon yesterday were those of the schools at Athens, AL bertville, Hamilton and BlountsvtIle. The Ninth District School is located at Biountsville and Richard Nation Is the Treasurer of the school. Mir. Nation, the Examiner reported. had received for the school from all sources s3.7aS.42 and he had paid out $3.561.43. It was reported that he was ready to turn over the proper balance and that there were no errors in
 his books.
 H. c. Harris was Treasurer of the
 Sixth District Agricultural School located
 at Hamilton. Since the last examination
 of his books the Examiner found that the
 Treasurer had received for the school
 from all sources $2,0s6.6o and that he had
 paid out during the same time $2,0i5. .s6.
 The balances turned over were correct and MT. Harris had no explanation to make.
 The work of the Examiner at the Eev. enth District School located at Albertville
 was upon the transactions of Prof. J. B.
 Hobdy, President of the school and s. w.
 Riddle, the schools treasurer. Professor Hobdy had received from all sources, du.
 ring the time. he had charge of the finan- ces of the school, $4,s63 .S2 and he had paid out during the same time $4,22S.S2. MT. Riddle during his incumhency of | the office of Treasurer had received $S.54406 and he had disbursed @S,543.79 No errors were found and none was reported. H. J. Fusch was the Treasurer of the
 school located at Athens. His books were

 received $22.005.25 and he had expended $21, ,195. .95.

 classes and combine others in that city. A veritable problem confronts the staie members of the board.
 If the Nebraska schoolma'an is any where near as prepossessing as the type that has been in evidence in Milwaukee during the convention of the State Teach- CTS Association thls week it is no wonder there is consternation in the ranks of the governing bodies. The wonder is tna1 the trouble, or problem. or whatever it may be called, hasn't hit nearer honis. Possibly-probably even-there is such problem in Wisconsin. but the dictates of wisdom prevent the making Of any noise over it.
 Much haes been said anent the inade- quacy of the pay given to teachers in the public schools, and the necessity of adopt ing higher schedules fin order to retain the best talent has been urged with great energy. When Cupid enters into the calv culation. however. high salaries will not solve the problem. The only thing the boards of educatlons can do, in fact. is to surrender to the inevitable, and make the best of 1t. To preside over hons is the laudable ambition of every--or nearly every-young woman of normal | temperament and 1t is an ambition that is eXcusable. even when it means the giving up of the charge of heterogene- ous mass of other peoples children. Matrimony and pedagogy form conn bination that works for the better inter- | est of all when the subject comes to he analysed thoroughly. Nine times out Of | ten the man who robs the schoolroom to get wife carries away woman who is an honor to her new station in life. And the vacancy she creates by entering the marital states makes room for another. ] Cupid is doing a noble work. His arrows will do more to sustain the normal schools and make their products of practical yaI- ue than hundreds of thousands of appro- priations and scientific methods of train- ing for the duties of teaching.

Augustus ThoSnaa Great Comedy,
 The Earl of PawtuclEet.
 The Earl of PawtuclSet. Augustus Thomas's great comedy. comes to the Montgomery Theatre Monday night. A feature of this truly excellent comedy is it's unrestralned hunnor; In not single instance of its appeal to the disabilities of an audience does it strain for effect. All of the clever dialogue and adroltly arranged scenes and incidents are actually and spontaneously brought out and com bined in perfecting really funny enter tainment, of such a quality and quantity as suf1lce to endear 1t to all classes of theatre patrons.
 The positive assurance is given that, in every respect, even to the minutest de- tail of scenic and furnishing equipment, the production here will partalSe of all the original establishment and grandeur. As for the cast. 1t Is needless to mention that KirlSa Le Shelle. under whose 6irec- ton the Earl of Pawtuoket" Is offered, is too reputable a manager, and takes too great a pride in hts offerings. to al" low so essential a consideration to be overlooked.

Indiana School ohacials Urge Them

 Indianapolis special ,,.
 nThe farmer boy of northern Indiana should beware of Chicago"
 This is one of the statements in an ol- flcial bulletin which is being sent to teacn- CTS all over Indiana by the State boaro of Public Instruction in an attempt to stem the tide of emigration of farmer hoys to the great cities of the country
 The State Board determined on It's ac- ton after receiving statistics showing estimates of the number of boys who have deserted tho farm for the city during the last few years. It believes the vitality of the State is being sapped and will at once begin a crusade to stop the move ment.
 ''Too many boys from the farms are seeking openings in Chicago, St. Louis. and the other large cities of the vest the bulletin continues. Personal inVes- tigatIons have brought to light the fact three-fourths of the boys who have migrated to the cities in the last hve years have been unsuccessful in their undertakings, many having been forced almost into the unemployed class.
 The bulletin then specifies Chicago, ana deprecates the fact that that city is draw InB 4u the ooyS trOIu the AaIHe l' t'40 northern part of the State, and continues:
 'It will be sad day for our national life when all our young men farmers come to town, when the small, well eul- tivated homesteads give way to big land cd estates.''
 The teachers in all the public schools Of the country are urged to use all the in- nuence in their power to make their pupils familiar with the hardships of city life and the few chances for them to get started in business in the great centers of industry. They are also urged to make their schooIroom busy workshops where the nobility of honest toll may be taught.

 Denver Col, special telegram.
 So complete has been the success of Governor Peabodys program of expulsion for the disturbers in settling the strike in the two big gold mining camps of the State that the State Guards in both Tel Ter and San Miguel counties are to be cut in half. In the latter nearly every mine is running full capacity with non-union forces and the output is daily approaching the normal amount.
 About fifty men have been expelled to noI-mining counties and warned not to re- turn. About 400 strikers remaining are peaceable citizens Tomorrow 100 troops will be withdrawn. In Teller County, where Cripple Creek is situated, the forces has been gradually lessened from 400 to 250 and the reduction is still going on. Here the union leaders have been called in by Colonel Verdeckberg in an effort to pick out the anarchistic element and save the law-abiding miner from in- convenience.
