CALLED TO TEACH
THE HIGHER GRADES
Miss Kate Agnes King Passes
D. Away Friday Night
iisd Entered Her Sixth Year a, Teacher Of the
F Primary Department Of City Schools.
ssss. Funeral Largely Attended
Miss King is dead!

Il As the above words passed from lip
to lip last Saturday morning they were
] spoken with that reverence and feeling
that betokens personal and public loss.
] The spirit Of our dear primary teacher
took its fight at eleven o'clock on Fri
day night, just one week from the time
she was taken so seriously ill. Miss
King appeared from the beginning of
her illness to have premonition that
it was to be her end. She was taken
i'll at the Argyle Hotel on Friday night,
and in the morning asked that Father
Baker at Glendale be sent for as she
knew she could not live. She was
taken to the Boardman hospital, and it
was found that she was threatened with
pneumonia, with complications of weak
ness Of heart and nervousness. The
pneumonia was checked, but the heart
failed to perform its functions and all
that medical aid and loving hands could
do could not save her.
Miss Kate A. King had been resi-
dent Of Dickey county about sixteen
years. She came here from Spring
Green, Wis, where she was born about
thirty-6ve years ago. She taught school
about ten years in the vicinity of Ellen
dale, where live her cousins, Patrick
and John King. Her sister, Mrs. Robt.

of the public schools, and her work
there was satisfactory to patrons and
pupils and she was reelected to the
position year after year without mur-
mur from any source. Her whole heart
was in her work, and by her kind dispo-
sition and winning ways had so endeared
herself to the children that they will
miss her much. She was a second
mother to them. No pl$ce in the school
room is so hard to fill as that Of the
primary teacher, and to get one that
will fill all the requireme rs is no easy

NEW STATECAplTOL,
WORK IS DELAYED
Supreme Court Decides Adversely
to Legislative Procedure
Fight Taken up by Fargo and Grand Fork.
Builders and Contractors Decided
In Their Favor

Bismarck, N. D., Nov, 18.-Great in
terest attaches to the decision of the
supreme court in declaring invalid the
law creating astate capitol commission,
authorizing the erection of the new
capitol and executive mansion, and the
issue of $500, 900 of certificates based
on the capitol-land endowment for that
purpose. This puts an end to the con-
troversy regarding the state capitol for
two years at least. Thedecision grants
permanent injunction against the
commission from proceeding further
under the law.
1t was written by Chief Justice Nor
gan, and is concurred in by all the JUS
tices. The fatal defect in the bill is
not the using of the land grant for the
purposes stated in the bill, which the
court holds to be lawful and amply
within the power of the legislature.
The decision is based on the fact that
the legislature in passing the bill gave
w Vic SOAAAAAAAooAVA HOWS1 W OullU LIlS>
capitol building and executive mansion
without specifying how much money
should be spent on the two buildings
respectively. This, the court holds, is
purely legislative power and cannot be
delegated to commission. If the bill
had stated how much the commission
was to have spent on the capitol build
ing and how much upon the executive
mansion, it would have been valid
under the decision just filed by the
court.
The capitol-commission bill was pas
sed at the last session of the legislature
and authorized the appointment Of a
commission to rebuild and reconstruct
the present state capitol and construct
an executive mansion. The land grant
granted by congress for the purpose of
erecting administration buildings was
authorized tp be used, and in the mean
time the commission was authorized to
issue $6OO, 900 of certificates to furnish
funds until the lands could be sold.
Under this bill, commission was ap-

pointed by the governor, consisting of
VIM. Bulge, Andrew Sandager and
d. ]. Laxdal.
This commission advertised for bids
for the furnishing of plans and ac-
companying bids for doing the work
proposed by the plans. This proposed
method of obtaining plan that was
suitable and discovering at the same
time how much the plan could and
would be executed for did not please
contractors at Fargo and Grand Forks,
who brought an action to restrain the
commission from proceeding under the
proposed bids, and afterwards asked
for permanent injunction against the
commission, claiming the law void be-
cause the congress of the United States
did not intend such a disposal of the
lands under the enabling act. The
supreme court does not hold with this
contention of the objectors, but decides
the matter on the grounds first stated.
The passing of the capitol bill1was a
matter of personal pride to Alexander
Mckenzie, who desired to see the state
have a capitol building suited to its
needs, he having been concerned with
the original location Of the building at
Bismarck twenty-five years ago and
having desired the erection of perma-
nent and fitting building for the capitol
of the state. Mckenzie lived first at
Bismarck when he came to the state
and he has been concerned::with the es-
tablishment of various institutions that
would rebound to the benefit of the
city and the state, including the. loca-
tion of the military post, Fort Lincoln,
to take the place Of one abandoned sew
eral years ago.
He has always been a consistent sup
porter of Bismarck and the Missouri
slope and his interest in the capitol
natter was not strange. The matter
will probably be only by the adverse
decision of the supreme court, as it is
generally conceded that North Dakota
should have capitol building con-
sistent with its growing wealth and
Importance, and in view of the fact
that other state institutions have
been more than literally provided
for, provision for them having been
made out of direct appropriations,
whereas the proposed capitol building
was to be constructed with the proceeds
of land that can be used for no other
purpose and would not come in any
sense from taxation or direct pay
ment from the state treasury.

matter. It is there the little tot gets
its start up the ladder of learning, and
the impressions received there form in
no small part the character of the
individual in after life. Miss King was
remarkably well fitted for such a posi-
tion and her death can be counted an
individual as we'll as a public loss.
Funeral services were held at the
Catholic church Sunday afternoon at
four o'clock, being conducted by Rev.
Father Baker. The church would not
admit the vast crowd that gathered and
many were obliged to remain outdoors.
Father Baker spoke we'll of the Chris
tian traits Of the deceased and held up
the example of her life as pattern for
others to follow. At theTclose of the
service it was heart-rending scene to
see the little tots Of her department,
thirty-five in number, march in each
bearing carnation and placing Sit on
the casket of their beloved teacher.
These were followed by the pupils of
other departments Of the school and their
teachers. Each department had started
with Miss King and as over two hundred
pupils filed past the casket many d
tear of sympathy and regret fell from
the eyes of those who witnessed it.
The children headed the procession from
the church to the 500 depot, where the
remains were taken for shipment to
Spring Green, Wis, for interment. P.
King of Glendale, cousin of deceased
and Miss Sarah King, sister, who ar
rived Sunday from Spring Green, ac-
companied the remains.
Three sisters and two brothers are
surviving, being: John King and Sarah
King of Spring Green, Wis. Mary King
of Lime Rock; Mrs. Minnie Richards of
Dodgeville and James King of Arena.

SUNK WITH A YACHT

The Natural Effect of FIuCt- udtiORS on Consumers
DEPARTMENTAL FIGURES
Showing That a Slight Reduction Would be Wholly Absorbed by Jobbers and Retailers to the In- crease of Their Own Profits.

Washington. July 23.-A statistician in one of the departments has pre- pared some interesting figures on the rates charged by railroads for the transformation of articles iIl general use by the great mass Of consumers in this country The railroads have seized upon them as bearing directly upon the proposed rate legislation, and are using them as an argument that a reduction in rates will not be Of any particular benefit to the man who buys for his own consumption.
 An examination of the results shows that the rate from New Yorz to Chi cago. approximately 950 miles. is T5 cents per hundred pounds on first class articles which embrace shoes, hats. clothing, etc. Sugar and coffee are carried at a cheaper rate, the cost of sugar being two and one half mills, and coffee the same. These fig lIres are not imposing and the rail- road man insists that even if these ar ticles were carried free, the cost per pound to the consumer will not be reduced. as the saving would be 3b- sorbed by the jObber and the retailer
 The table. which follows, is very in- teresting in showing the rates on diff ferent articles and the increase in price, irrespective of The freight rate which does not seem to nuctuate with the wholesale selling price. Before the consumer gets the thing he needs. lie must pay the retailer his profit.

YELLOW FEVER INVASION
Cow rnment Authorities Hopeful of
 Coping With it.

Washington. July 23.-Oficials of the public health and the marine hospital service are working in harmony with those in Louisiana in the efforts to prevent any spread of the yellow fever, from which an Italian died yesterday in New Orleans. Dr. A. H. GIennan, acting surgeon general in the absence of Dr. Wyman, who is now in Honolulu. has dispatched surgeons c. M. Guiteras from Cairo, H., T. H. Richardson from Savannah, and H. J. White from Mo bile to proceed to New Orleans and as sit the marine hospital officials sta tioned there.
 A thorough outgoing passenger me dical train inspection service will be organized so as to prevent the depart ure of any persons who may have been exposed in any way to the disease The application of the methods employed at Havana for stamping out the disease will include the destruction of mos quitos and the screening of patients in fected with the disease. D-. GIennan said tonight the situation is well in hand and he expressed the hope that the disease will not spread.

EMPERORS CONFER
The CZar and Wilhelm Get
 ting Together
One of the Objects is to Show That Germany is Standing Behind Rus s'a in the Peace Conference.

St. Petersburg. July 23.- Midnight An official statement has been issued to the effect that Emperor Nicholas sailed today on the yacht Polar- Star accompanied by Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovitch. for the archipelago. to interview Emperor William. wno is cruising in the yacht Hohenzonern in the waters of the Baltic sea and the Gulf of Finland.
 The first interview of the sovereigns
 was expected to take place this even ing off the Finnish port of Borgo. at the mouth of the Gulf of Finland, near Helsingfors. This will be followed by another interview tomorrow. after which Emperor Nicholas will return to St. Petersburg, and Emperor William will continua his cruise.
 Many diplomatists were taken com pletely by surprise by the news Of to- day, the rumOrs that a meeting was contemplated, which were current since Friday having met with the hattest denials in CiIicjal quarters and the German ambassador having stat ed that he knew nothing of any such plan to be on foot. Emperor Williams action was instantly connected with N-S -sAbl b~Neil tllAS1ttoAi anu for his political astuteness in realizing his opportunities was expressed on all sides
 Like the last meeting between Elm perOr Nicholas and Emperor William at a hunting seat in Russian Poland, where the European and eastern situ- ations were discussed between the strokes of a game of billiards and Russia was assured that she need have no anxiety regarding her western frontier while engaged with the Jap anese, the conference in the cabins of
 the HOhenzOleIn and the Polar Star will be entirely informal and proba- bly without secretaries or other wit nesses.
 There is no set program of subjects for discussion. aside from a general consideration of the factors in the po-
 lItical situation affecting the two em- pres. but it can be stated that the coming meeting of the sso-Japanese peace envOys will occupy a place in the foreground.
 The action of Emperor William in seeking a conference at this moment is generally interpreted as an assur- ance of his moral support of Russia in the coming pour parle-s at Washing ton and Portsmouth and to show that German participation in the recent Japan loan was not a mark of the alienation of German sympathies from Russia. Emperor William, whose keen interest in the lessons of the Russo Japanese war 3s well known, has also taken advantage of the occasion to dia- cuss the details with eye witnesses and the presence of the naval officers who distinguished themselves in the far east is due to his special request.

Although the full rate for nearly thousand miles is given in the table, statistics show that the average haul of a ton of freight on a railroad IS about zoo miles so that the transDOr- tation charge on the bulk of things most used would, at the best, be less than 30 per cent of the above.
 The cost of freight charges is in cluded in the wholesale price quoted. The prices of commodities have ad- vanced in the period of eight years shown. 36.3 per cent. This covers period of the most phenomenal pros perfty in our nations history.
 The freight charges given represent the cost of the haul between Chicago and New York. approximately 1000 miles, these being used as they arc the basis upon which all fraigh' rates, either east or west, are made. The cost of the freight haul between Chi cago and Philadelphia, leo miles less in distance, is approximately 1-2 per cent less than the figures given. Between Chicago and Boston, a dis tance greater by 21I miles, freight would add approximately 2-3 per cent to the prices given. Between Chicago ana Buffalo C590 miles less), or Pittsburg (57O miles less), the cost of freightage is approximately 40 per cent less than the figures given, and between Chicago and Cleveland (450 miles) it is approximately 4 per cent less. The wholesale prices at all of these points are practically the same, the variation where there is any. be- ing in Q small fraction of a cent
 Freight rates between New York and East St. Louis and other Missis- sippi river common points are prdc- ticaliy E per cent in excess of those given; to Kansas City, Omaha or Oth- CT Missouri rive" points, they increase about 9S per cent over the Chicago basis; to Denver. the freight charge increases 242 per cent and to Pacific coast points 800 per cent.
 So trifling are these increases as applied to the commodities in daily use. tha- the retail price of all com moditiea whether on the Pacific coast, in the interior or on the Atlantic coast. are practically identical. \ slit Of clothes. hat, dress pattern. pair of shoes pound of coffee or tea, box of cigars or bag of flour costs no more in san Francisco.
