SHOWN NEEDS or NORMAL.
lsolsIators-eIect Are Advised That
ScnooI Is Inadequate.


Tho several members elect OF the
state legislature visited the normal
school of Spearfish at the invitation OF
President Cook, who wished to i'm.
press upon them the necessity for in.
creased appropriations for this insti.
tuition. Those who were present were
Senators May and Cooper Of Lawrence
county, Representatives Shaw and
Pennington Of Lawrence, Jones OF
Custer, Stokes of Butte and Hare OF
Pennington.
The party spent two days at Spear
fish and inspected the entire school,
its equipment and its method OF work.
Attention was called to the fact that
the enrolment is larger than that OF
any other similar state institution, and
the facilities for handling nearly 500
students are entirely inadequate. The
appropriation for the teaching force
and other employees is only $4,000 a
year, and 1t has been necessary to In
crease this to SIT 500 by using the To-
cal fund. Several of the buildings are
incompleted, and 1t would take at least
SIS, 900 to finish them. 1t was shown
also that numbers of students desiring
to enter had been unable to gain ad-
mittance because of lack Of room.
The library is inadequate and is be.
coming more c~ongested each month
by the large additions Of books.

Ex-NUN is SET FREE.
At Second Hearing Of Case Woman 10
Found of Sound Mind.


Agnes Grosser, the ex-nun, commit
ted to the asylum at Yankton two
weeks ago, has been set free, the
county board of insanity taking that
action. Friends of the woman, led by
Father Link, of the Catholic church,
raised such a storm on hearing Of her
commitment that the board agreed to
a second hearing. Hon. c. H.. Dillon
was retained by the defense and many
prominent citizens, including eight
leading physicians Of the city, all
swore to the m being perfectly
sane. She accordingly was set at lib
erty.
The case is attracting wide attention
and it is believed will result in radical
changes in the state statutes relating
to insanity procedure. 1t has been the
custom to represent a person accused
of insanity by an attorney, and many
claim a person up before the authors.
ties on such a charge ought to be en-
titled to all the protection given a per-
son charged with an ~offense, civil or
criminal. Some states summon a
jury, and this, with an expert doctors
testimony is required to commit to an
asy .um.
The winters legislature, now soon
to convene, is likely to be called upon
to look into this matter.

SOUTH DAKOTA BONDS ALL PAID.
Treasurer Secures Surrender Before
They Are Due.

Treasurer Secures Surrender Before
They Are Due.
South Dakota n longer has a bond
ed debt, the last of such evidence OF
Indebtedness having been received in
a lot of $4,000 bonds which were for
warded by New York holders.
This has been the ambition of State
Treasurer Collins ever since he took
the office, and he had done a great
deal Of work to bring 1t about. BY
extensive search he located the bonds
and then by personal work secured
the consent of the owners to surrender
them before they were due, and he has
accomplished his desire Of clearing up
all the bonds before he retires.
In his annual report he placed the
saving in interest charge to the state
by securing the bonds before they be-
came due at approximately $4,000.
But he failed to secure some OF the Sc
curities as soon as he hoped to, and
the actual saving to the state by such
work in the four years he has been in
office was $43,310.80.

airy several times over for the time he
has been in Office. Many Of the bonds
yet had over two years to run, and in
terest would have been accruing on
these for all that time If their surren-
der had not been secured.
This action also leaves about s12,-
900 now on hand in the bond interest
fund, which can be transferred to
some of the other funds Of the state
where it is needed, and other sums
will come in by the payment Of back
taxes for years when a bond fund was
levied, all Of which will be available
for other purposes from this time on.
What the total saving to the state
has been through securing bonds be-
fore they were dus is not known ex-
actly, as the same policy was followed
by Treasurer Schamber, who took up
a number of bonds in the time he was
in the office.

LOSSES r FIXED.
Fire a Wakonda Involved Serious
Destruction.

10 ~
Eight buildings destroyed by IRE.
two men hurt, and loss amounting 70
$45, 900, are some Of the results of the
explosion of a gasoline lamp which
Harry Dwyer was lighting In he
Dwyer Bros hardware store at Wa
konda.
Seriously burned about the face and
his clothing on fire, Mr.. Dwyer. who
was alone, could barely save his life
and had no time for the flames which
quickly gained Roadway in the store.
Before the energetic citizens had the
fire under control. the west side OF
Main street was nearly wiped out.
The losses were:
Dwyer Bros, hardware, loss $4,000;
insurance, $4,000.
Northrup restaurant. loss $4,000; in
surance, $1,000.
j. A. Walker, saloon. loss $4,000;
insurance, $500.
e. w. Babb, general store. loss $15,-
600; insurance, $4,000.
Frank Griffen, saloon, loss $4,000;
insurance, $500.
R. J. Hewitt, store building, loss $1,-
900: insurance, none.
First National bank, loss $4,000; in
surance, s1,7oO.
b Tom Lynch, pool hall, loss $1,000;
insurance, $1,000.
Total loss, s45,50O; total insurance,
s21, 900. !
Scarcity Of water may be blamed
for the greater part of the loss. The
town has no water service and the
iremen soon pumped all available
water from wells and cisterns and
then nothing could be done. The
"-~1es ragged from 5 in the afternoon
9 at night. On the south side
lie fire line is left standing the
large general store of CLANCY & Jacob
son, and on the north the Wakonda
State bank is left untouched.
Most of the owners of the destroyed
buildings, which were all frame, are
already planning to rebuild, some with
brick.
Besides the injuries received by
Henry Dwyer, John Mulverhill had his
face badly gashed by falling glass.

THREE HOURS IN ICY WATER.
Ferryman, Marooned on Bar, Attempts
TO Wade Ashore,


TO Wade Ashore.
Ole Anderson, an employe OF the fer
ny company at Yankton, had an un-
pleasant experience. and n that he
is not apt to repeat until warmer
weather. He had taken a couple of
passengers across In a skiff and was
returning to the Yankton side. Ths
fee in the river was running heavily
and it forced the frail craft in which
Anderson was rowing upon a sandbar,
where all Of his efforts to release II
were in vain.
Anderson did not like the idea Of
spending the cold night marooned in
the middle Of the river and he decided
to attempt to wade ashore, the water
along the bar, which extended to the
South Dakota side, not being deep.
1t was bigger undertaking, however,
than Anderson had calculated upon.
and for three hours he fioundered in
the icy cold water, which sometimes
came as high as his armpits. He
fought his way through the foes of Ice,
but when he finally succeeded in
reaching shore he was so chilled and
exhausted that he could scarcely walk.
He managed to drag himself to the hut
of a fisherman near by, where he was
taken In and cared for.

THE PROGRESS OF THE CANA
DIAN WEST.
Nearly o 10000 Of an Increase In Cana.
da's immigration in 1906.

The progress OF a new country can-
not be better ascertained than by not.
ing the increase of railroad mileage in
Its transportation system, and, judged
by this standard. the Canadian West
leads all the countries in the world
during the current year.. Thirty years
ago there was not n hundred miles
Of railroad west OF the Great Lakes,
and very little prospect Of a trans
continental route for many years to
come, but by the end of 1885 the
Canadian Pacific Railway was within
measurable distance Of completion.
and last year-twenty years later
over 5000 miles of railroad traversed
the provinces Of Manitoba, Sas.
katchewan and Alberta.
In the past year the work OF rail-
road construction has been vigorously
prosecuted, and by the end OF 1906.
some 5000 miles of completed railroad
has been added. making a total OF
fully II, 900 miles In the three great
grain producing provinces OF Canada.
Such an increase in the transportation
facilities of the country is bound to
make good times not only in the dis
tricts where the railroads are being
built, but throughout the entire west.
Allowing $4,000 a mile for construc-
ton, the sum OF 500, Oo0. 900 will be
put in circulation. and this In itself
should cause good times to prevail In
4 land where work Is plentiful. wages
are high. and the cost Of living is mod
crate.
But the building OF new railroads
through Western Canada means q
greater benefit to the country tha
merely the money put in circulation
by the cost of construction. Addition
al railway building the opening
Of new agricultural districts and an
additional area under crops; a largely
increased output OF grain to foreign
markets with consequent financial re-
turns; the erection of elevators and
the growth Of villages. towns and cit
les: and everything else that makes
for the progress OF national life, and
the opening up of additional thousands
Of free homesteads, SO extensively ad-
vertised by the Canadian government
agent, whose address appears else
where.
II was stated on the floor OF the
Canadian Parliament recently by q
prominent representative that ten
years from now would see the bulk Of
the population OF Canada residing
west Of the Great Lakes, and IL the
work Of railway building during the
present year is any criterion, the
prophecy made by the Canadian states
man may be easily fulfilled inside OF
the time stated. During the present
year no less than 189, 064 persons have
found homes In the Canadian west.
Of whom 57,796 were Americans who
have seen the great possibilities OF
this new West, and have decided to
cast in their lot with 1t. Certainly.
our neighbor north of the 49th parallel
Is making a great record, and deserves
the success that appears to be coming
Its way.

COUNTY SCHOOL SHARE.
Latest Apportlonment Of state School
Fund by Counties.

The state land department has Just
made the December semi-annual ap-
portionment of the income from the
permanent school fund to the schools
of the state, sending out S103 ,367.10,
or 73 cents for each school pupil Of the
state. This makes the total apportion-
ment of income for 1906, s~42S,37S.06,
the apportionment of 1905 being $409.-
26S.25, making SO for each pupil in the
schools for 1905, and s3.07 for 1906.
Thsre was an increase of 2,704 pupils
for 1906 over 1905, and the fund will
have to keep growing rapidly to keep
the apportionment up to, or increasing
per capita, with the increase OF school
population. The amount sent out to
the different counties on the apportion-
ment was:

Gov.-elect Crawford has announced
that he will make no appointments un-

by the legislators. Such action would
assure the pushing along OF the bills

stances compelled to act upon several
places almost Immediately after TAX
ing the chair. Two places on the
board Of regents of education become
vacant at the beginning of his term,
when the commissions of Regents
Goodner and Slocum expire. While
the term or Regent Slocum might be

is selected, that of Regent GoodneE

is a member of the state senate.
