story old General Dodge told me.
Twenty-onc years ago now. he told,
he drove from Trinidad, Colo to
Tascosa, on reconnaissance for the
proposed road. They had left with
out sufficient supplies and when they
got we'll along their way they fig
urod when they met Engineer Hood,
who was working north, that they
would get plenty Of supplies, But
when they got down here and found
Hood they discovered that Hood had
been counting on meeting them and
was out Of everything but tobacco,
SO they had 10 work back to Tascosa
on tobacco and what they could kill
along. This morning as we were
coming up the line on our train and
passed tho regular going down with
ono of our new diners just put In
service at a cost Of $4,000 each, /
was forcibly reminded OF the diff
ference between that time and this

closest interest, President Trumbull
emphasized the fact that Amarillo

with the heartiest approval as a
whole.

He left Douglas in April, 1898, and has spent the years in the Koyukuk and Chandlar regions and on the Yukon. He says that the discoV- cries made in the Chandler country amount to but little, employing less than a dozen men. The prosperity of the Panama has been blasted, not by poor ground, but by labor troubles; only small part of the properties are being worked. MT.

School Notes.

The fact should be recognized by pa irons, teachers and pupils, that the school while it is in session is the one thing, business we may say, of impor- tance. It is not only the chief factor in the development of the youth of the community, but it gives the moral and intellectual tone to the town and indI- cates to all, even to the passing stran- ger. the progressiVeneSs of it's people
 Our Public School does not always get proper consideration on the part of the general public; when it does it will become not only a credit to our town, but something to which we may point with pride.
 Let us discuss few points, small ap- parently but vital to the advancement of our best interests.
 In our crowded schools, the good of the majority is the chief aim; it is i'm possible to cater satisfactorily to the peculiarities of the individual. Of course successful class work depends upon equal attendance of pupils of like capabilities, and if parents realized the advantage of constant attendance there would be-fewer errands to be done dur ing school hours-carrying the dinner pail to Treadwell, delivering goods, etc. More would be sacrificed for school. It is true that sacrifices in the home must often be made because the pupils in terest in his school work cannot poSsib- ly be sustained if through absence he is unable to do what his classmates ac- complish with ease.
 Another detriment to the harmony of grade work is the dropping of some required study. The evil result of this is often not readily seen, for there are various excuses given by different pu- pills which seem plausible, but the ten dency follows of giving up a study simply because it is found uninterest- ing, or it's value is not at the time ap- preciated.
 One of the greatest mistakes of past years is quitting school before the end of the term, thereby losing the latter part of the study, missing the summary and emphasizing of the most important points of the years work.
 These obstacles to the interest and progress of the school will be over come by the observance of the follow ing rules which the board has adopted:
 Written excuses from parent or guar dian are required for absence or tardi- ness. If the excuse is not presented to the teacher by the second day after the absence or tardiness, the pupil is sent home for it and marked zero for every recitation missed. An absence or tardiness is recorded "uneXcusod" un less in case of illness or other unayoid- able circumstances. Excused absence from recitation may be made up by special arrangement with the teacher.
 No pupil shall take less than the re- quired number of studies in his grade, unless by special request of parent or guardian, or by certificate from phys ician attesting his inability to take the full grade work.
 Any pupil failing to finish the terms work forfeits his right to promotion, and no promotion shall be granted un- til the requirements are met.
 Examinations for such pupils will be open the first day of school.
