Educational Notes.
By w. +. Cafringtonl

The next annual report of the State
Superintendent Of Public School will
show some interesting facts. Among
them lie:
The Com. ulsory Attendance Law
brought 26.263 children into the schools
the first year after it Was adopted.
The highest annual salary paid a rurel
teachers in Missouri is $500 for term Of
eight months at SIS Der month; the
lowest $50 for term Of 4 months at SIS
per month; the average is below $500.
St. Louis has an assessed valuation Of
$4,000 per teacher employed and pays
an average annual salary Of 1920.
Kansas City has an assessed valuation of
$1,000 per teacher and pays $3.50 as an
average annua salary.
Rural districts IN most counties show a
larger assessed valuation to the tcache r
then do the town schools of the same
county and the average for the rural
teacher is above that of the city and town
teachers Of the State.
The average levy for school purposes
in the rural school districts is about 47c
on the 500 assessed valuation, viii. e in
the cities and towns it is about SC.
The above facts indicate that there
should be some legislation requiring
longer terms and larger salaries,
especially in such districts as can supper,
them OH a levy within the constitutions
limits.

to combine all the good points OF

succeeded so well that 1.-Two Merry

| there Is no doubt as To his ownership Of
II. There are ais acres, and sections Of
II, according to some statements, are
worth as much as 100000 an acre.
Rongey said that he bought the prop
erty about twenty five years ago. and for
most Of that period it had been 90 un.
productive to support a tenant. 1t has
remained entirely idle for the last twelve
years, and was not considered worth
enough to erect a building on it.
In adversely during the past three years
Rongey states that he was several times
tempted to dispose Of his holding, but
had such difficulty in finding a purchaser,
and was offered so little for it that lie was
rather forced to retain ownership.
A week ago, a man called on him at
the hospital and made inquiries about his
property. This caller was followed by
another, who offered a price which made
his eyes open, but Rongey did not close
the deal.
Since then several offers have beeu re-
ceived. until the owner has now decided
not to dispose of the land until he has
become thoroughly informed as to its
actual value.
Rongey has been an inmate Of the City
Hospital for sig weeks. He drifted into
st. Louis almost penniless and was taken
to the institution suffering from a serious
organic disease. lie is a widower and
says he has two children, whose where
abouts he does not know.
He says he has long had an idea that
the land was rich in minerals, but never
has the capital to develop it. He does
not yet know who ascertaiued the exist.

WARNING BY EMPLOYER
President Of Manufacturers Associa.
ton Says Capitalists Are Sometimes
to Blame for Socialism and Anarch-
isn,-scores the oppressor.

Chicago, Dec. 4.-James w. Van
Cleave, of ST Louis. president OF the
National Association of Manufacturers.
delivered the principal address today
before the convention of the Industrial
Association. Van Cleve condemned
strongly the men who oppressed their
employees, declaring such man to be
a worse citizen than the demagog he
assails." Continuing the speaker
said:
I'VE see socialists, anarchists and
extremists of all sorts springing up on
all sides. 1t is we'll for us employers
to question ourselves and learn wheth-
er we have had any part in this gener-
alton of implacables and destruction
lists. 1t is well to understand that
some captains of industry, and the
heads of some of the great aggrega-
tions of capital and some employers OF
labor in general, are in measure re-
sponsible for these things. The OUT
breaks which occur in this country
from time to time can only be cured by
the permanent removal of the abuses
which caused them"

cARuso APPEAL THIS WEEK.
Case Will be Heard Soon-Poticeman
Caine Transferred.

New York, Dec. Magistrate Baker
yesterday made his return to the order
of Judge O'Sullivan, of the court Of
general sessions, in the case of Signor
Enrice Caruso, who was fined $40 for
annoying women at the monkey house
in Central park. 1t is likely the appeal
will be heard some time this week. as
Judge Dittenhoefer, Carusos counsel,
is anxious for decision as soon as
possible.
Patrolman Caine, who arrested
Caruso, was transferred yesterday to
the West One Hundred Fifty-second
street station, known among the police
as the Goat district This transfer
would have excited more comment had
it not been the result Of Commissioner
Bingham's recent order that all plain
clothes men should be shifted every
thirty days. Bingham did not learn
of Gaines transfer until last night.
He said he would order Caine back to
duty in the park. as the transfer might
be rniSconStrued.

FRISCO SENDS DENIAL
Secretary Taft Receives Telegram
Reterating the Denial of Theft Of
Portion of Relief Contributions.

Washington. Dec. 4.--Secretary Taft
today received the following telegram
from j. d. Phelan, president OF the
San Francisco relief and Red Cross
funds corporations:
Eastern press adviceS state large
sums of money subscribed have gone
astray; that the president and secret
men are investigating the matter. Re-
port apparently originated from ex-
press company's failure to deliver
thousand dollar package from Search
light, Nevada, which has since been
delivered. Apart from this, however,
no funds are missing. The rumor is
entirely groundless. Every subscriber
who sent relief funds to San Francis
co direct is said to have a numbered
official receipt signed by the president
comptroller and cashier of this cor
poration. In Justice to San Francisco
and her generous friends in the east,
please give the widest publicity to this
statement"
