Two Classes Being Formed To Take Up Study Of The
 Spanish Language,

The Spanish class among many others at the Y Nj. c. A. night school this season is having quite boom. Outside of two score registered for beginners in Spanish. already this season a club is being formed by members of former classes of the As sociation for the study of advanced Spanish The club is yet in it's form ative stages but already eight have signified their intentiin of joining such class and continuing the study of this most useful language. Those who are interested in the club are Dr. Ferguson, Dr. Cutter, Dr. Will Hams. F. s. Davenport, A. Duyal les sard, Rev. J. c. Fry and others. The classes will meet twice each week at the Y. NJ. c. A. building under the regular instructor in Span ish of the ' M c. A. classes. J. O. Maldonadc
 The class will very likely begin les sons in conversational Spanish and continue the study of Spanish gram mar The class is to be especially helpful as it is sought to use the Spanish language in instruction and explanation of the lessons as far as 1t is practicable. Those who are inter- .ested in the study of advanced Span ish can obtain full information with reference to the proposed class at the Y. NJ. c. A. building or from mem bers of the club There Is still room for six or seven members if the club. A limited number only will be accom- modated so that each student can re- ceive the greatest possible good from each lesson.
 Aside from the classes in Spanish, the night school beginning october 1st will conduct courses of study in mechanical drawing. bookkeeping, shorthand and typewriting, mathemat- fos oapanaar Tn oliah hronahes -oi4zine first aid tn the iniured etc. pro yided ten men register for each study.

YOUTH WAS FIENDISE
Remarkable Case Of viciousness on the
Part Of a Ward County,
"a Boy.

Berthold Tribune: A 16-year-old
boyT who has been making his home
with his.-nncla L. Z. oeth; residing
about eight nilesp southwest 9of town,
was taken to the reform school Mon
day by a deputy sheriff. Not overly
bright and possessing violent tenn
per he was always, seeking revenge for
some faneied wrongs and usually vent
ed his wrath on Mr.. Oeth's horses. The
climax of his viciousness was reached
recently when. he. beat the horses UNI
.mercifully and poked the eyes out with
a long pole This last act was the limit
to Mr.. Oeth's indulgence toward the
boy, and reported the affair to the
county authorities who concluded that
the reform school was the proper place
for the little fiend. The strict disci-
pline of the school Is what the boy
needs and may possibly curb his vio-
lent temper to certain extent.
