THE ANNUAL. REPORT I:!] ][| I
OF lille Laos County Schools Compiled
by Supt. Guy Ewing Contains
Interesting Statistics.
Schools Shown to be In Satisfactory
Condition With Standard of
Pupils Fast Advancing.

The annual school report for the
county of Mile Laos, just completed
by Superintendent Guy Ewing and
sent to the state department. of public
instruction, contains some interesting
statistics. From the mass of figures
constituting the report we extract the
following as particularly worthy Of
mention:
In the Princeton and Milaca indie
pendent districts we find that 987 pu-
pills are entitled to the state appor-
tlonment for the coming year, the
total enrolment for the two districts
being 1,131. Thus there are IA who
will not be eligible. In the % COM
mon school districts of the county the
number entitled to the state appor-
tionment is 1,411 out of total enroll
ment of 1867. This gives a total of
1898 pupils who will draw state money
out of an enrolment of 2,82S-a very
gratifying showing. vs.
There are 46 frame and 3 brick
buildings in the county, aggregating
in value 100000, go per cent of this
valuation being confined to the
Princeton and Milaca institutions.
High school libraries of the county
contain 1878 volumes while there are
1910 volumes in the rural schools.
The total value of these books is
SIS, 900.
The sum of $685. was paid for
teachers salaries during the last
term. This sum was about equally
divided between the two high schools
and the 30 rural districts.
Nine months is the average period
voted for school terms the coming
year in the villages, while in the rural
districts it is 81 months. ~.
The average salary for men instruc-
tors in villages is s12l per month and
for women teachers $51. In the rural
schools the average salary for males
is S47 and for females S37.75N
On Arbor day 20 trees were. planted
by pupils on the village school
grounds and % on those of the rural
districts.
A total Indebtedness of s17,500 is
carried by the village schools and
s7,165 by those of the rural districts.

He has been an aspirant for the Senate ever since, and the fact that he is the unanimous choice of the republican party in a state celebrated for political scraps and factional fights shows his skillfulness as a politician.
 MT. Guggenheim has lovely wife, a daughter of Henry Hirsh of New York; to whom he was married in 1898.
 William Guggenheim, the youngest brother, born in 1869, is the onl% one Of the family who has had technical ed- ucation. He is graduate of the School of Mines of the University of Pennsylvania, and can show diploma as mining engineer. He has also had the same practical training as the oth- CT brothers. He built the big shelter at Perth Amboy, N. J., after his own design, when he was only twenty-four years old. The plant cost three mil- Lion dollars and handles ores that are brought up by steamer from Mexico and Chile, and other parts of the worldly. E. Curtis in the Chicago Record-Herald

ETHICS OF TRANsPoRrATIoN

A Western railroad man tells of a road in Arkansas built long ago, a read that had all the weaknesses to which neglected systems are exposed. The ballast was thin, the grades heavy, and the ties rotten. Nearly all passengers travelling by this road pro- vided themselves with accident poli- cies, although, as a matter of fact, there was not much danger, as the trains were not given to sprinting and 1 the regular accidents used to occur Iwithout very serious results. Train had by long practice learned when to jump, and the passengers, by follow ing their example, fared just as we'll. The fastest train went at the rate lwhen the wind was not unfavorable-- of ten miles an hour, and so was call the Little Rock Express.
 One day the Little Rock Express jumped the track and went tearing into a cornfeld. While the rest of the trainmen were sitting in the shade, } waiting for the wrecking train, the con ductor came up, saying to the engi- neer:
 Bill. I'm afraid you're in for it this time, miss my guess if you don't get fired for this"
 "Ah, g'wan!" exclaimed, Bill, it wasn't my fault; it was the fault of the rotten, old road. Besides, we get derailed on an average of three times week. The superintendent wouldn' know what to think if we kept the track for ten days running"
 That's all right, Bill" .rejoined the conductor but you're off the wrong way So long as you keep on the right of way, 1t doesn't matter much; but we have no business in this mans corn field and you know it."-Harper's Weekly.

ROCKEFELLER INTERVIEWS.

 Spontaneous.

 They Are Said to Be More or Less
 Spontaneous,
 That John D. Rockefeller, who for a generation has been a veritable sphinx and whose ways were inscrutable, in now giving interviews to the news papers every few days, is the cause of a good deal of public curiosity. It is understood, of course, that MT. Roeke- feller has finally come out of his shell in the hope of being able to create public opinion as favorable as possible to the Standard Oil Company, in view of the pending prosecution in the Fed eral courts but even persons who know him express surprise at the luency which characterizes his in- terviews.
 It has been learned that his inter- views are carefully prepared al Standard Oil headquarters in New York under the supervision of skilled newspaper men,, the chief of whom i' ]. I,sC. Clark, the dramatist, and that they are then closely scrutinized by the Standards chief counsel, MT. Eli ott, assisted by H. H. Rogers ant John D. Archbold,
 After they have passed through these various hands they are given tt the press; though, of Course, in ordei to make them more Impressive, Mir Rockefeller himself meets one or two reporters and discusses with then briefly commonplace affairs, after which he hands them the prepared in terview, an accommodation mos grateful to every reportorlal heart,-- From the Washington Herald.

year with their wives and children to celebrate his birthday. It was 8 beau tiful scene because the affection of this great family never lost it's ardor and these annual reunions never lost their interest While the brothers were piling up gold. The patriarch was little man, with snow-white hair and side whiskers, and his wife, Barbara Myers, dainty bit of humanity, dressed in a simple, old-fashioned way, was q gen. tie autocrat, exercising despotlc au- thcrity over more millionaire boys .han any other ruler on earth. She and Meyer Guggenheim became acquainted Tn the steerage of the stelmor that brought them over n 1853 and were married few months after they land ] ed. In her early married life she locked after her husbands stole while he was cut soliciting orders. In later fife she gave away hundreds of thousands of q liars to relieve distress ana enc our- age honest industry.
 Isaac Guggenheim, the l:dest son, born in 1854, began life as an erranl boy in a grocery; he was next a drum mer and then got hold of an oi! well in l Canada, from which he mad fortune before he joined his father in the smelting business,
 Daniel Guggenheim, oofi n 1856 went to Switzerland when he was aev- enteen years old to act as buyer for aa embroidery firm, and remained in Flu rope for eleven years, until that busi- ness was sold out.
 Murry Guggenheim, born in 1ss5S was clerk in the embroidery store.
 Solomon Guggenheim, born in 1858, was clerk for his father, and after wards built the smelters at Pueblo Col, and Monterey, Mexico
 Benjamin Guggenheim, born in 1865 was the first of the sons to get a col lege education. He was a member of the class of 1887 in Columbia unlversi- ty. As soon as he was graduated, he went into the smelter at Denver as a common laborer to learn the business ] He built the big smelter at Aguas Cal lentes, Mexico, and invented process for trtating refractory copper ores which has proven very profitable
 simon Guggenheim, the senator-to- be, was educated in the Philadelphia public schools and spent two years ir Europe studying French and German before he entered the smelting works at Pueblo to learn the business. That has been the practice of the family One of the reasons for their extraordi- nary success has been their thorough knowledge of their business. Every one of the sons has had practical expe. lrience in all of the various branches ot the smoking industry, and, if necessa. Try, each of them could take actua charge of a furnace and run it as wei las the expert foreman they emplay.
 Simon Guggenheim is the only one oi the brothers who has ever had any thing to do with politics. In 1896, be- fore he had been in the state six years he was nominated for lieutenant-gov. Iernor of Colorado, but the republican istate committee had to take his name off the ticket when it was discovered that he was 'only twenty-nine years old. Two years later, however, the Iparty made good by nominating him flor governor, but he declined because he could not leave his business, which Twas then in a rather critical situation

THE GUGGENHEIMs.
The Rise and Progress of a Notable
 Family

The Rise and Progress of Notable
 Family
 Simon uggenheim, who will succeed Thomas M Patterson in the United States Senate, is remarkable man, with reputation for integrity, indus try and intelligence equal to any en- joyed by the people in his state. He Is a member of one of the most remarka- ble families in Amreica, or in the world, for that matter, there being seven brothers, all mllionaires, MT. Guggenheim will be the youngest member of the Senate. MT. Burkett of Nebraska, who Is the senatorial baby now, was born on the first day of De- cember, 1867 while MT. Guggenheim s bright black eyes opened upon this prosperous world on the thirtieth day of the same month and the same year. MT. Guggenheim Is the seventh He- brew to be elected to the United States Senate-Benjamin and Jonas of Louis- jana, Yulee of Florida, Simon of Ore- gon, Ankeny of Washington and Ray ner of Maryland. When he takes his seat there will be three Hebrews in the Senate--Ankeny, Rayner and himself. MT. Guggenheim's father, Meyer Guggenheim, was born in a little village in the mountains of Switzerland and came to America when he was nine teen years old. Finding his way to Philadelphia, he peddled stove polish on the streets, and, being of an inquis- tive turn of mind and enterprsing dis position, discovered how that article was made, and became manu, and became a manufacturer of it, Then he peddled embroideries, and, having ac- cumulated sufficient capital, set up a little shop, which grew until he be- came the largest importer and dealer in that line of goods in the United States. He was a man of slight stat ure, but human dynamo for energy, and he had the touch of Midas, that turned everything to gold. In 1889 somebody induced him to buy stock in a Colorado silver mine. It was the same old story, only it ended diff ferently from most stories of the kind He was compelled to take charge of the property in order to save his in- vestment, and a few years later sold
 
 CT with the proceeds. The most valua- ble of his assets were seven sons Isaac, Daniel, Murry, Solomon, Benja- min, Simon and William-who, wher they learned the business, scattered over the west and built smelters in as many different places, until now they own, or at least control, the smelling industry of the American continent from the borders of Canada to thu Straits of Magellan. They call them selves "The American Smelting ant Refining Company" of which Danie is the president, Isaac the treasurer Murry chairman of the executive com mittee, and the other brothers direc tors. They handle nearly all the sil yer, copper and lead of three conti nents and the few independent compa nies exist by their permission. Int Smelling Trust, which means the sev en Guggonheim brothers, is one of thu closest corporations in the world,

There is no saying, however; everything goes for food, and only when that is gone will they work out to get more.
