SCHOOL OFFICERS MEET.
An Interesting Meeting Held in
the Court House Friday.
Many Were Present.

The meeting of the school officers O
Day county which was held in tn,
court house in this city last Friday
March 3lst, was well attended and {
deep interest in school matters mani
Tested by all in attendance. We arr
srue that the suggestions gotten at thi,
meeting will be helpful to the schools
throughout the county.
| The meeting was called to order by
j. II. Hetley, county superintendent OF
schools, and after pleasing solo by
Miss Bessie Lancaster. organization wa.
accomplished and the business of the
meeting entered upon.
Superintendent Hetley's remarks
were along three lines: Business
methods in school affairs; the real work
of the school room; and his aims as
superintendent. Under the first topic
was discussed the care of school
property and appliances, the attendance
and equipment of pupils, school board
meetings and records, teachers certifi-
Gates and wages, and the proper treat
ment of school troubles
The next topic called forth statements
OF the objects and aims of all school
work in which he said that the work
was not so much study of set work
and problems, as it was master of
thought, development of mind power
That the success of the teacher was not
measured by per cent, but by the
psychic condition under which he was
able to have the child perform his tasks.
The time was so limited that but few
minutes could be devoted to the last
topic, the aims of the superintendent
The afternoon session began with a
well rendered solo by Mrs Frank
Anderson.
States Attorney Sears was introduced
and the marked attention given at this
time proved both the timeliness of the
topic, school laws, and the ability of
the speaker. The questions came thick
and fast yet the answers were ever as
rapidly given.
The real treat of the meeting came
with Prof. Thompsons talk on the
teachers qualifications and standards.
Those who heard this left the room
fully convinced that the best teacher
obtainable is neither too'good nor too
dear for any school, that they were the
cheapest because the best. Thirty
minutes of rapid talk did not tire the
audience and the cries of Ego on"
induced him to prolong his remarks
The meeting then adjourned subject
to the call of the superintendent.

A HAPPY EVENT.
The Tuesday Evening Meeting
of COteau Lodge No. "a,
A. F. and A. M.

One of the happiest lodge meeting,
ever held in this city was the regular
meeting of Coteau lodge No. "a, A. f
and A. NJ, held in their hall last Tues
day evening.
The early part of the evening was
taken up with the raising of Sam Cal
menson to the sublime degree of a
Master Mason. The degree was excel
lently conferred and was listened to
with great attention and interest.
When the work of the degree was
finished Mr.. l.. q. Levoy arose and in
one of those happy speeches for which
he is justly noted called the brothers
attention to the fact that they had with
them that evening the first worshipful
master of the lodge, Brother j. A. Lee.
Mr.. Levoy paid high tribute to Mr. Lee
for his untiring efforts at the institution
OF the lodge aud during the first few
years of its existence. He also spoke of
the great unselfishness and generosity
of Mr.. Lee and his brother members at
the time of the building of the present
temple. His historical story of the
trials of the lodge and Its members
was listened to with the greatest of
interest by all the members and especi-
ally the new members.
Mr.. Lee responded to Mr.. Levoy and
1t was plain to see by his remarks that
although his membership at present is
in Masonic lodge in the Indian terri
tory, that his heart was not there. No
matter where life's fortunes take him
his heart will always remain with
Coteau lodge. He said he had been in
i'll health but that the evenings enter
tainment had cured him of all his
disease and removed his cares. He was
a young man again, a boy back with
the boys of Webster who builded
Coteau lodge, and little did they think
that from their beginning such
finished work would result.
He said he was like A. H. Kramer,
who, at their last meeting in Oklahoma,
told him that no matter where he went
his home would still be in Webster.
He was too old to make new friends to
take the place of those made in South
Dakota when she was new and all were
in struggle for existence. Mr., Lee
also related many events in the early
history of the lodge that were listened
to with wrapped interest.
Short speeches were made by ]. w.
Abbott, Josephus Alley. Albert Smith,
j. H. Hetley, Emil Meyer, DR.. J. l..
Harris, and Sam Calmenson.
4. A. Wearne read one of Arthur
Belts original poems which was very

After the program wac finished light
refreshments We're served in the club
rooms on the ground floor, and the
members departed for their homes hav-
ing thoroughly enjoyed one of the most
pleasant lodge meetings in the history

BIG DAMAGE SUIT.
Standard Oil Company Sued for
$1,000 by Carl Ogren and
Children of Langford.

Carl Ogren, a farmer living near
LaDgford, and his minor children have
brought suit against the Standard Oil
Company for damages to the amount Of
81 600 which they allege are due them
from the company for the death of
Mrs. Ogren which was caused by the
explosion of a kerosene lamp last
November. The plaintiffs allege that
the oil in the lamp was adulterated
with gasoline, which caused the explo-
sion.
Papers were served on the state agent
of the company a short time ago and
the sesvice has been answered by the
company through its attorneys, Horner
& Stewart, of Pierre. The case has
been transferred to the next term OF

THE Globe Belt states that Judge Tucker is in receipt of a letter from Senator Thurston of Nebraska, saying that Attorney General Moody had as- sired him that the charges made had been dismissed as ''not proyen,n and that there would be no further ac- tion taken thereon. It is a very easy matter to make lot of charges against man, but when it comes to proving them, it is an entirely diff ferent affair. If the charges were untrue, then the whole thing was doubtless a political scheme to secur the position for another man, who wanted the job.
 A dispatch from Washington dated October 9th states that the presi- dent has called for the resignation of Judge Tucker.

THE editor of the Phoenix Enter prise, who seems to have tropical imagination, has thrown off another pipe dream, with the evident intent of making prejudice against the mining companies with those who are engaged in other pursuits. One would think Editor Dunbar would have been more careful after the sinewy rebuke handed him by Wal ter Douglas anent a former pipe dream in regard to an attempt to remove the chief executive of the territory, but no, perish the thought! He has only just begun his wild career as a creator of fairy tales. His latest is that he has been informed by a man who saw man from Cochise county stated in con fidence that he was told by another man that he had heard an indirect intimation, that ''purely in d spirit of retaliation number of those who hold responsible positions with some of the big mining com DClllSS III lllS SOuIl1Olu pcll OI <All- zona are secretly lending their aid to joint statehood. This startling state ment, the editor says, twas made by a man who withheld his name from publication for the purpose of policy. The only reason,' as given by this mythical halucination, ''that these people are working for joint state hood is to get revenge for the raise in mine assessments" Say, John, you have been buncoed again. That fellow was guying you. There isn't one word of truth in the statement. The mining men Mill remain loyal to Arizona notwithstanding the effort of the territorial board to confiscate their property.

 And though the heart of the maid be true, There's trouble in life for with a wife
 That the bachelor never knew. Oh, Natl Oh, Mat. Why did you do that?

 You have certainly made quite blue To think that you should desert when you could
 Have stayed and the boys through; For love is all right in it's place, my boy,
 But base ball is cash at the gate, And it doesn't right you should flee from the fight
 And let the game die at the plate. Oh. Mat! Oh, Mat! Why did you do that?
 Twas surely grevious sin; She'll be tossing that will
 With bat to coach in: You'll be "SlidingHome" quite early, my boy

 And endeavor to ''steal home run Oh, Matt Oh, Mat! Why did you do chat?
 But Aasl What 1 say, For hear there's dart that plerces the heart
 And then there's the Devil to pay: So here's the hand of good will, my boy,

 Will abide in your hearts through life.

FOR the second time since the idi- otic raise on the patented mines of the territory Colonel Epes Randolph has been interviewed by the Phoenix Enterprise as strongly indorsing the action of Governor Kibbey and his board of equalizers. Colonel Randolph is president of half doz- en railroads operating in Arizona, which, according to government sta tistics, are taxed at less than ten per cent. of their commercial value. It is therefore no wonder that the col onel is batting the governor and the board on the back. However, there is an adage to the effect that the man who attends to his own business does well, and this applies with some force to MT. Randolph, for the time may come when this board will cease to be the creature of any one man, or even a corporation. and then the railroads will be compelled to pay their just proportion of tax. It is not becoming in MT. Randolph to exult over the unjust taxing of non- producing mines. Better keep mum, colonel, and take good care of your rabbit foot, for it may lose it's charm with the change of the moon.
