There was a large decrease in the

MUST 90 TO SCHOOL
Provisions of the Compu!-
sorry Education
Law s

TIE attention of parents and guar
dians IS directed to the provisions of
some of the revised statutes regarding
the attendance Of children in the pub
lie schools of the stale.
Sec. l445, Chap. ii, provides that:
Every person having under his control
q child between the ages of eight and
sixteen ysars shall send him to some
school wheEe the common English
branches are taught during the entire
time the public schools of the district
in which be lives are taught. unless
such attendance is excused in whole
or in part by the school board or
board of education of such district, as
her einaftar provided.
Sec. 1446. Such board may excuse
attendance when satis6ed-1. That
the child is in such brdily or mental
condition az to prevent his attendance
at school or application to study for
the required period. 2. Tat he is
properly taught at houe or elsewhere
in the common branches. 3. That he
has all ready acquired such branches.
f. Thst he is engaged In some useful
occul alton. 5. That there is no
school within reasonable distance of
his residence. 6. That such person is
unable, on account of poverty, to pro-
perly clothe such child.
Sec. 144s providea that: The board
Of any district may appoint and re-
move at pleasure q troant officer,
who shall investigate sll cases of
truarcy or nonattehdance at school,
make complaints and serve notices and
processes, and attend to the enforce
ment of all laws and school reenla-
ticns respecting truant, incorrigible
and disorderly children, and school
attendance Whenever any truant
officer learns of any case of habitual
truancy or continued non. attendance
Of any child required to attend school,
he shall Immediately notify the pereon
having control of such child to send
to and to keep him in school. He

session, any child unlawfully absent
from school, shall be guilty Of mis-
demeanor. and shall be punished with

provisions of the statutes above re-
ferred to.
Those having children who ought to
be in school and are not 30 attending
should either send them to school at
once or consult the superintendent in
regard to their non attendance.

SMALL POx IN LUMBER CAMPS.

SMALL POX IN LUMBER CAMPS.
st. Cloud Journal P4ess: Smallpox
has broken out in the lumber camps
in the northern part of the state and
from now on It will be harder to get
men than ever. The first instance c1
it reported was in the Morris Thomas
camp near Britton gravel pit on the
Drummoud branch of the D1luth and
Iron Range railroad. Instructions
have been issued to all trainmen,
agents and operators to take every
possible precaution to prevent the
spread of the disease. and not to per.
NIT the infected persons to ride on
the trains. The report OF course will
make men less ANXIOUS to work In the
woods and many of those men who
have been employed in the Sauk
Rapids mill have planned on going to
the north country. AZ far as reports
90 the smallpox has only been discov
cred in one place and there is no wide
spread Of the disease.

SEeaklDg of rtaut ed conditions in the
lumber industry, the News Tribune
says:
Minnesota has produced a very large
amount of lumber. The lumber busi-
ness is still one of its leading indus
tries and will remain 80 for q good
many wears to come, but each year
sees a considerable depletion and the
lire of the forest pushed farther north

three sswmills in Superior and ten in
Duluth. there will be none In Superi-
or running in 1907 and only seven left
running at Dulath. Anyone who
carefully considers the supply of tim

the future has in store.
The eastern states, with their dense

TIE forests of tho Pacific coast are

freight rate of 40 cents per hundred

can never become cheap commodity

The increasing wealth of the coun.

K0EN|G NOT A SUICIDE
So Claims the Widow of
Former SWanville
Miller

st. Paul Pioneer Press 81: Rela.
tives OF Herman K0enig, who is sup
posed to have killed himself after
shooting Mrs. s. f. Boothman 10 he,
fiat at II South Ninth street, Mime.
apolis, some months ago, have under
taken to prove that it was not Koe.
mig who fired the stots that wounded
the woman and caused his own
death.
The widow of Koenig has begun
suit in the Hennepin county district
court in an effort to collect on a life
insurance policy of &, 600 The policy
contains the customary clause reliev.
ing the company from liability in
case of death of the insured by sui
eide. It is said that the company
once offered to settle with Mrs. Koe-
mig for $500, bnt she refused to accept
anything less than the full face value
OF the policy.
The affair which resulted in the
dsath Of Koenig and serious injury to
Mrs. Boothman was highly sensation
al, although the evidence obtainable
by the police at that time was chiefly
of circumstan'ial character. Other
occupants of the building heard sew
eral shots fired in Mrs. Boothman' 8
apartments, and quickly sfterward
Mrs. Boothman ran into the hall
wounded and bleeding profusely To
the persons who went to her assistance
she said that the man who had shot
her was in her rooms and that he bad
shot himself. She asked that some
one should 60 quickly to take care OF
the man.
Koenig was found lying on the floor
in Mrs.. Boothman' room in q dying
condition and unable to talk. Nc
statement of the affair was obtained
from him before bis death. Mr..
Boothman was seriously wounded,
and by the time tho police arrived at
the house her condition was such that
it was considered unsafe to question
her. At the hospital she remained in
q critical condition for some time,
and as coon es she was able to bs re-.
moved she was taken to Chicago.
All investigation following the ira
gedY terded to convince the police
that it was Koenig who had done thu
shooting, and after careful inquiry
into the relations of Koenig with the
Boothman family the officers dropped
the case.
It is said that Mrs Koenig's suit
for the insurance will be based upon q
contention that it vas not Koenig
who fred the shots, but another man
who entered the Boothman hat unob.
served while Koenjg and Mrs. Booth
man we're talking and whose purpose
must have been robbery. In support
of this theory there will be testimony
to show that Koenig had q large sum
Of money before the shooting and only
small sum was found upon his body.
The testimony of Mrs. Boothman,
who 10 still in Chicago, has been
taken by deposition.
