NO DEBATING TEAM
IN CRO0KST0N
HIGH
superintendent Says That it
Takes Pupils Thoughts
From Studies.

When asked the other day why work
along the line of debate was not en-
ccuraged in the Crookston high school
Supt. Mcintyre replied that he thought
it interfered with other and more I'M
portant branches of study. 1t is his
opinion that sufficient amount ct
training in debate is informally Sc
cured in the class rooms discussions.
During previous superintendent
in the Crookston high school, debating
teams have been organized to such a
degree OF eXcellency that they have
won much honor among the schools
OF the valley. 1t is several years
since tho school had an organized
team and there is meagre prospect OF
another being organized in the near
future.
Supt. Mcintyre went on to say that
a formally organized debating team
is undesirable for the reason that OIL
ly few can benefit from it and then
again not only much time and study
is required on the part of the mem
bers of the team but also on the part
of the teachers whose interest and at
tention would be taken from the other
students.
There are very few high schools in
the state that are doing regular and
systematic work in the line of debate
and it is significant yet unfortunate
circumstance that in the schools
where debate furnishes the standard
of work done in other directions is
not tho highest.
Supt. Mcintyre expressed himself
as being strongly in favor of high
school students developing along the

THOUGHT 1T TIME TO STOP.
Wonders Of the Telephone Too Much
for Sitting Bull.

c. J. H. Woodbury., the engineering
expert of the telephone company, told
the boot and shoe men the other night
the true version of the Sitting Bull
and telephone story, says the Boston
Herald. Sitting Bull had been cap
tured by the United States troops and
was held in close confinement. So
also was another obstreperous Indian,
held in confinement at post about
100 miles away. The officer in charge
of Sitting Bull had been chasing the
Indians for two months, and was won
dering what he would do with the cap.
tive. In an inspired moment he de.
cided to arrange an interview between
the two Indians over the telephone.
After the necessary ringing up Sitting
Bull was asked if he cared to talk into
the machine. He talked into it for
several minutes and did heap of
listening also.
He put down the instrument finally,
and for hours was even more gloomy
than usual, at last beginning to talk
to himself, something very rare for
the Indian. Asked if he was dissatis-
fled with his accommodations or If
there was anything they could do for
him he broke forth at last:
"No. I'm finished. It's all right
when the white mans plaything talks
the white mans language; but when
it learns to talk the red mans tongue
it's time to STOP"
1t is believed in the west, where
the incident is fairly well known, that
this talk over the telephone between
the two Indians had considerable in.
f1uence in shortening the Indian wars.

Exactly at 12 o'clock last Monday
night the contractors who have been
constructing the two subway tunnels
under the East river between Manhat-
tan and Long Island City turned them
over completed TO the trustees of the
New York and Long Island Railroad
company. The north tube was finished
some time ago and track is laid
on which an experimental car has been
running for several weeks. Ground was
broken for the building of these tubes
on July IA, 1905, and the work has been
finished on time. notwithstanding un-
expected difficulties were encountered.
The engineers associated with the un-
dertaking declare that only those who
faced the task know the great difficult
ties overcome and the courage il re-
quired to face some unexpected and ex-

Long Island City heading of the north

According to the Journal of Com
merce here is an instance of how high
prices sometimes work out: New York
newspaper correspondents OF out-of-
town papers have received orders TO
reduce their contributions, the high
cost Of white paper having impeled
newspaper owners TO reduce the size Of
their issues. This curtalment will
mean less work and consequently less
income for the telegraph companies;
less work for compositors, printers and
others connected with the newspaper
industry and a let-up in activity all
around.
