CHILD
BURNED
TO DEATH
Little Daughter of S. B. Her
mann the Victim

Dorothy the 3-year-old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Schiller b. Hermann, of
Myrtle Point, died just before midnight
Monday, from the effect of burns re-
ceived Sunday afternoon.
The Marshfeld Nails correspondent
at Myrtle Point gives the following
particulars of the sad occurrence;
The little girl was playing in the
yard, and there found a bunch of
matches. These became ignited and set
FIRE to the dress of the child. The older
sister tried to extinguish the flames,
but high wind was blowing, tanning
them up again. The seheams of the
children drew the Indian servant girl
to the scene, and she wrapped the child
in a blanket and rolled her on the
ground, extinguishing the blaze. Mr..
Puliford, the nearest neighbor at once
called Drs. Lepp and stemmleT, who
did everything possible for the relief
of the little sufferer. One side of the
body and face was very badly burned,
and it is likely that the child also in
hailed the hameS Her sufferings were
intense, and she passed away as related.

PuBLrc SCHOOL PoLIcIEs.

The people Of this school district
want frst-class public schools, and are
ready TO vote what money is needed to
support them.
They do not care for a great many
bighpressure fads, but are willing to
take good square work in the English
Language for most Of it.
Gentlemanly and ladylike teachers,
who exert refining influence on the
rising generation are appreciated by the
parents generally.
The time fiat is put on in unneces-
sary outside and extra matters, to the
loss Of mastery Of common branches,
Is dead loss.
Financially this school district has
high ideals. About fve years ago the
district was put on a cash basis by ap-
plieation Of the popular loan.
The old graft Of an endless chain Of
perpetual debt by keeping the district
behind in its current expenses was
EroIfeD up.
Prior TO the application Of the popu.
Ear loan bank advanced the funds for
Surrent expenses at high rates of inter
est.
When taxes were paid they we're ap-
piled ON the notes Of the district, and
there was always a big interest bill
and a balance due the bank.
A very energetic and businessike
board Of education paid of the floating
debt, and ever since there has been
cash TO pay for everything.
One Of the issues at the coming
school election is to sustain the popular

restore the old system.

magnetism which holds the iron filings
to the magnet. You see they stick so
fast to it that you find it hard to shake
them off. Suppose they were little
men, women and children. Instead of
falling off they would find themselves
pulled back to it If they jumped or
tried to get away.
Now. the scientific men tell us it is
not the magnetism of the earth which
