ABOUT SCHOLASTIC CENSUS.
Board of Education Points Out Features
OF the Law as il Should Be
Observed.

Austin, Tex, May 29.-The
State Department of Education de-
sires to call the attention of the
educational authorities of the State
to the requirements of the law con-
corning the scholastic census:
/. The scholastic census of the
common school district must be
taken by census trustees appointed
by the County Superintendent,
and of the Independent school dis
tricts by census trustees appointed
by the presidents of the School
Boards.
2. All children who will be over
and under II years of age on
September 1, 1906, must be enu-
rnerated in the districts in which
they reside. Said census must be
completed during the month OF
May and returns thereof must be
made to the County Superinten-
dents by June l.
3. The scholastic census reports,
OH the prescribed forms, for the en-
tire county, including the commit
nifty portions of the county. the
common school districts, and the
independent school districts, should
be forwarded by the County Super
intendent to the State Department
of Education, Austin, Texas, at
the same time, and at date rot
later than July l, 1906
4. In no instance should census
trustees enunerate children who dc
not reside within their respective
districts.
5. Census trustees in country
districts are entitled to &c per cap

by them. In towns of $500 IL
habitants and upward to 5000 TIKI

law allows the census trustees are
entitled to only &c per capita.
None of these accounts can be paid
until the scholastic census has been
officially accepted aud approved by
the State Superintendent.
s. A full supply OF blank forms
for use in taking the scholastic
census has been forwarded to the
County superintendent and the
presidents of the School Boards,
and complete returns, according to
the statutes of the State, must be
made to the State Department of
Education on or before July l,
1906.
7. The total scholastic popula-
ton of the State for the year begin
ming September l, 1905, and end
ing August 81, 1906, is 1913, 675.
The average annual increase in the
scholastic population of the State
amounts to about 2 per cent,
which would make the scholastic
population for the year begin.

Interest for more than one reason.
There are in the neighborhood of
forty counties in the State that
will be affected by the decision,
and the fact that the Attorney
Generals Department and the trial
Judge have disagreed as to the
construction of the statute attracts
more than ordinary attention.

AN INTERESTING CASE.
Appeal From Pamela County Involves
Construction of the Law Combining
Clerks Offices.

Galveston, lex, May y. ~
case of State interest, A. G. Brooke,
county chairman, VS.. B. G. Du-
laney ct al, candidates for District
Clerk of Pamela County. on appeal
from the District Court of Pamela
County, was filed in the Court of
Civil Appeals this morning. The
record has reached here in record
time, it being on May IS, 1906,
that District Judge Levy made the
ruling from which the appeal is
taken.
The ruling of the District Judge
was contrary to that of the At
torney General in the matter.
Article 1896, Revised Statues,
provides that in counties having a
population of less than 5000 the
Office of District and County Clerk
shall be combined and one officer
shall perform the duties of both
offices. The population is to be
estimated on the vote for Gov
ernor at to l,
Pamela and about forty Other
counties i'll the State have had bott
officers-a County Clerk and
District Clerk. At the last cleo
ton, however, the vote of Panol;
County for Governor was less thar
1900. At the rate of FIVE inhabit
ants for each voter, the population
would, therefore, appear to be les
than 5000. Upon this showing TIL
Attorney Generals Department
ruled that the Office of Distric
Clerk should become merged witt
| that of County Clerk.
With this ruling as his authority
Democratic County Chairman A
lG. Brooke refused to place tn
names of B. G. Dulaney, w
IL. Cromwell and William Walton
candidates for the Office of Distrie
Clerk. upon the primary ticket.
They thereupon sought by man
damus to compel him to do so
District Judge Levy granted tn
inandamus, his idea being that tn
statute does not contemplate tina
such a seesaw condition SHOULD
prevail as would result If it ha'
to be determined after every cleo
ton whether or not the count,
should have the two offices for tn
two years following. He held tina
after the two offices had once bee
established separately they wer
permanently established.
As candidates must have thei
papers on file with the count
chairman on or before June 10,
is desired that a decision of tn
case he had before that date. T
that end a motion to advance wi
be made, and doubtless will b
granted. 1t is not unlikely tha
the case will be submitted in tn
Court of Civil Appeals next Thur:
day and decision will very likel
be had by the Thursday following
that is, on June 4.
As stated, this case IS OF unusu:

For one moment It appeared that Coch-

for he turned to Thurso eagerly, his mouth
open. But 1t was clear to Maud, when he
did speak. that the speech was moi his orig
inal thought.

above him and the earth below seemed of
about equal size, and the shape Of England
and the coasts of Europe appeared set In
dim sea as in an atlas. Then he turned his
eyes away from the earth and looked un-
blinded into the high noon of the heavens,
and yet though It was noon. the infinite
vault of blue was sown with stars. Sun
and stars shone there together. and a slip
of crescent moon foated very near at
hand.
Again, still wildly awake and without
the least hint Of drowsness, the stars be-
came globules Of sparkling dew, and the
spaces of ether took shape, until about
transformed into huge bed Of blue
was sparkling. The sun was still there. and
round 1t the sky took the shape of petals of
a flower, and it. as Browning had said, was
the center spike of gold in an immense
blue blossom. All this. too. this vision to
which sun and stars contributed was his
own, born Of the brain which SO short a
time ago had been stabbed and pierced
with horrible tortures. But. indeed, that
torture was worth experiencing, If by the
aid of little brown draught he reaped
this great compensation. The machinery
OF the universe was subservient to his
brain now, the stars made drops of dew on
the acanthus leaves of infinite space, and
the sun burned as the center of one unique
flower. few minutes ago he had half
started to go downstairs; now the rawlings
of some lunatic in bedlam were not more
distant from his mind than that thought.
He was lost in the contemplation of things
