School Board Finds Charges are
unsubstantiated.
SOME CHANGES ARE MADE
Board Decides in Order 10 Avoiu Trouble
in Future, to Transfer Kester to the
Olney School and Place Professor
/ wilhcut Over Alderhrook.

The matter of the charges
again Professor kester of the Al.
derhrook school, was taken up last
night, by the Board of Directors OF
the Astoria school district, at its ad-
iourned meeting, and the testimony in
favor of Mr.. hester was submitted;
numerous, pointed, pertinent, questions
were put and answered, brief addresses
By the patrons of the school were
heard. and the whole subject, as pre-
sented. has been taken under eonsidem
ton by the board. Director J. A.
Eakin was present last night, with his
colleagues, Taylor, Holms and Higgins,
and the board is in full possession OF
all the facts and bearings of the case,
and will issue its findings. and decis-
ion, on Monday next. The case is one
OF many sides and phases, as is always
the case where number of families. and
the children Of those families, are the
first parties in the controversy, as
against teacher who. however able
and willing he may be, has won the dis
favor Of the patrons and cannot re
gain it. In other words, it is the many
against one, and the one seriously
handicapped by some mistakes, none of
which will be eondoned by the COM
planning parties. The discipline of the
public school system is involved in the
case under review, as well as the sense
of injustice felt and expressed by the
people of the Alderbrook school, and
the board is the only source of authority
and appeal in the premises and will no
doubt do exactly the thing that is re-
quired by the unpleasant exigeneies.
Later-At the conclusion OF the hear
ing the board met and after carefully
considering the case of Professor Kes-
ter exonerated him from the various
specifications in the charges. 1t was
thought however by the members of
the board that through mistake Mr..
Kester had punished one boy who was
innocent. In order to obviate any fur
ther trouble and because of some feel
ing engendered in the controversy, the
board has transferred Mr.. hester to
the 0lney school, and Professor Willicut
formerly principal of the 0lney school,
will hereafter have supervision of the
Alderbrook school.

Beautiful at all times, the famous room
today was exquisite in its classic splen'

the windows, and the handsome bro

fectly with the ivory white of the room,
From the hundreds OF softly shaded elec.

Decorations Elaborate.
The floral decorations were more Ella.

President Roosevelt's administration
While unnecessary space in the great
apartment was not taken up with the
decorations as every inch of it was
needed to accommodate the guests, two
huge vases. each filed with Easter lilies
and ferns occupied each OF the mantel-
and two handsome tables, one at the
north and south ends of the room, bore

an unobstrlcted view of it. The plat.

thrown with artistic earelessnes an

predominated. Banked back of the
platform and next to the windows were
palms selected for the beauty and
closeness of their leaves This group
OF palms was fringed at the base with
Astilbe Japonica. Forming back
ground were draeena sanderii of green
and white, and gorgeous Easter lilies.
Above this platform there was gar
landing of greenhouse smilax and as
paragus, with scores of roses nesting
in the green. The effect OF the whole
was exquisitely beautiful.
While the decorations in the other
rooms on the main floor of the White
House were beautiful they were less
elaborate than those in the East Room.
The vases in the green room were
filled with Enchantress carnations OF
delicata pink and fern fronds. The

NELS NYQUIST BACK.
Noted Few Things in His Trip to
Sweden and Norway.

rIoIn Mouudy Ddlly,
Nels Nyquist was in the city today for
the first time since his return from his
trip to Sweden and Norway. He is feel
ing the public pulse in regard to getting
into the state senatorial fight Mr. Ny
quist had a fine trip, going by way of
Montreal on an Allan line steamer. He
states that it is better for Sweden AMI
Norway to be separate countries, but
that it will be more expensive for both
to keep separate officials, armies, navics
etc He found good feeling prevailing
on the part of the people of the two
countries toward each other, except i'm
some instances. The people of both coun-
tries are satisfied with their rulers.
King Oscar is a man of ability and is
loved by all, and King Haakon is popu-
lar.
Mr. Nyquist noted that while good
many buildings are being erected they
are not all modern structures such as
are found in this country. He also no
ticed that sky scrapers are not permit
ted, and that the business blocks are of
about uniform height, which makes
the streets look more attractive

WAS A PITCHERS BATTLE.
Baseball Game at SibIey Saturday
Won BY M ankatos.

1t was a pitchers battle at Sibley
park on Saturday afternoon. The Pat
;erson Mercantile company nine met
and fell prey to the recently organ
lied Mankato team. The score was 7
to 6. The Mankatos managed to get
in four runs in the first inning on err
rors. During the next three innings the
Pattersons piled up six to their credit,
and up to the last half of the ninth
there was every indication that the boys
who deal in groceries and breakfast
foods were going to prove victorious.
But the Mankatos went to bat with
blood in their eyes, and they rolled up
three runs.
The fielding was sharp and there was
some good all around playing on both
sides. The battery for the Mankatos
was Sheldon and Krost and the Rabe
brothers held down the principal points
for the Patterson end. Kinney acted
as umpire.

DEATHS SAD ERRAND.
Mrs. Oscar Bierbauer Falls Victim
of Appendicitis.
Complies with the Pure Food Laws
OF ell States.


Mrs Oscar Bierbauer's death last
evening was a great shock to the com
mpnity at large, and especially so to
her large circle of acquaintance The
fact of her illness was not generally
known, and the public was unprepared
for the announcement of her death.
Mrs. Bierbauer was taken ill with
appendicitis last spring, and suffered a
hard attack, but apparently made a
complete recovery About week ago
disease, and there was some talk of
taking her to Rochester for an opera
that was deemed inadvisable Yesterday
afternoon DR.. Briggs of ST. Paul per-
formed an operation upon her at St.
Joseph's hospital, assisted by two local
physicians. At eight o'clock last even
ing she was much brighter in appear
ance, and seemed ;allying nicely, but
later in the evening began to fail rapid
ly, and although she retained her con
seriousness up to the last she passed
away peacefully at 1890 o'clock, sur
rounded by the members OF her family.
The deceased was born in Indian
apohs, and was forty-eight years of
age Her mother, Mrs. Gelier, still re-
sides there. The daughter, Miss Amelia
Geller, was united in marriage to Mr..
Bierbauer at Milwaukee, Feb u, 1884,
Shortly afterwards they came to Man
katO, and have lived here ever since.
Five children were born to them, but
three, two daughters and son, have
died. The surviving children are two
daughters, Elvara, aged fourteen, and
Norma, aged eight. These, with the hus-
band, will have the sympathy of all in
their great loss.
Mrs. Bierbauer was a lady of most
kind and loving disposition. whose many
amiable qualities shown most brightly
in her home, where her affections were
wrapt up in her family. However, she
found time to devote a share of her at
tention to social duties, and was ia
yOrite with all. Her death will be a
great loss to the circles IN which she
was bright and shining light.
Arrangements for the funeral have
not been made, but the irterment will
be made in this city, beside the re-
mains of her three children who have
gone before her.

STAPLES To PUBLIC


received by the companies, ii was on my
motion that the original offer was re-
jected.
Now as to favoring the modified Of
fer, | feel sure of the Endorsement of
the public.
"As the merchandise rate question
has not been decided. it is not proper
for me to discuss that at this time
further than to say that it is quite sure
that every merchant in the state will
agree that any considerable reduction
in freight rates, and particularly one
which will directly help the farmer and
the manufacturer, will also be reflected
in the business of every merchant.
1T is impossible to say just what any
proposed reductions means in actual fig
ures, but taking the government esti-
mate of grain raised in the state for
1905, which is 237,7SI5l5 bushels, which
divided among the different kinds, means
ll4,l73,275 hundred weight of all kinds
of grain and assuming that IS per cent
of this is marketed and would be benefit
ed, and that the average reduction is "
cents per hundred we get saving di-
rect to our farmers of more than one
million dollars.
''The best estimate of the total amount
of co ii consumed in the state is 5,O00,0 900
tons. All are interested in coal, and
any rejection in rates 90 direct to the
consumer. Under the proposed reduc
lion the man now paying $l.25 per ton
would pay $I,12h; $3.50, $l.35; sl75,
$l.571a; 50, $l.SO; 1925, $2.O2H, etc.
Remember the compromise applied
to all parts of the state, and was to
give immediate relief and take no
chances on fight in the courts for any
where from two to five years. further
more, that any order made by the COM
mission, unless the roads voluntarily
agreed to it, could not affec: q pound of
coal or grain moved between any point
in the northern part of the state and
Duluth for lack of jurisdiction.
Since an attempt has been made to
drag this matter into politics, and par
ticuarlv with reference 20 my attitude
after the above explanation | shall leave
it to the people to determine whether
my attitude has been for or against
the interests of the public.
Il promise that my attitude in this
whole rate investigation will be made
known to the public long before the COM
ing election"
