A young fellow, named Birrans, aged
about 10, died Saturday at Usage as
result of blood poisoning. Earlier in the
week he had been out rabbit hunting
and coming upon some of the game,
run it into nearby holes. Thinking to
capture by so doing he rammed the
gun stock in one hole and put the
brush into the other. When he came to
extricate the gun the trigger was
touched and the gun exploded, the shot
striking Birrans in the body. 1t was
thought at first that he would recover
but blood poison set in later. The

idation Of Rural Schools, Which Has
Been Very Popular Where Tried.
Special to T,mes-Repuhlican.


Iowa City, Dec. 13.-Superintendent
L. A. Langenburg, head of the public
schools of this county, declares that
the lack of teachers which has been no.
ticed all over the state, is not due to
the workings Of the new law govern
ing teachers examinations. He states
that before the new law went into eff
feet last year, all of the old teachers
had their certificates extended for a
period of one year and that there
should be just as many teachers as
there formerly We're.
cat the present time, however he
continues, there are 260 certificates in
force in this county held by that many
persons who are qualified to teach.
There are only 242 positions to fill and
yet there are six vacancies. The dis
appearance of the teachers must be ex-
planned on some other grounds than
these. It is possible that the relatively
low salaries that are paid for the rural
school teacher might operate to send
some certificate holders into other lines
of employment Others have been
married. But the new law cannot he
blamed for the present condition.
1t is believed by prominent educators
here that the scarcity of teachers re-
ported all over Iowa this year will has
ten the consolidation of the rural
schools of the state. This movement
has come to he we'll defined one and
is reported to be very popular where
ever it has been tried. The plan is to
unite three or four county schools in
one larger school. The larger attend
ance permits the directors to employ
better teaching talent.

TIMES HAVE CHANGED.

The probing of the affairs of the life insurance
companies by the Armstrong committee not only
started investigations all the country, but it
seems to have revoutionzed the financial conditions
in the east
Recently the Pennsylvania railroad wanted to
borrow $500000OO on an issue of it's bonds. A year
ago these securities would have been snapped up by
some syndicate allied with the life insurance
companies
But that is all past AS a result Of the changed
conditions the company was compelled to go 70 Paris
for the money
In commenting this circumstance Henry Clews
in his weekly Financial Review says: 1T must now
be recognized that the great life insurance com
panies, with their large surpluses. are no longer
available in case of necessity for placing Of new
stock and bond issues The latter must now meet the
market, which is a healthier method-though not
always so acceptable to railroad borrowers who have
extensive plans In view. This seeking in the open
market for money by our large corporations is a
new departure. and one that is likely in the long
run to be beneficial Partisan bankers will be more
critical and dsinterested in their judgment OF such
Investments than the local syndicates, which
formerly utilized the surpluses OF our life
insurance companies to finance such operations
The new method is less artificial more open and
free OF many objections inseparabe from former
methods.
In few weeks congress will close, perhaps by
the middle OF June and the market will be relieved
from much Of the agitation which has recently been
SO disturbing The street seems to have had quite
enough of investigating committees, and however
beneficial they may ultimately be the medicine for
the time being considered sufficient"
