Royal B. Stearns, a South Dakota

Royal B. Stesrns, a South Dakota
lawyer and cattleman, convicted in the
United States district court with w. L.
H~orsnell, Of st. Paul, on a charge of
conspiring to defraud the government
out of 1,6OO acres of land in South
Dakota, after carrying his case to the
United States circuit court Of appeals,
gains nothing and must serve his sem
tence. Horsnell and Stearns hired girls
to sign filing papers on lands in South
Dakota and planned to step in and take
over the claims at 500 each when
proved up, but the government got wise
and the scheme was spoiled just before
it was completed. Horsnell received a
sentence of $500 fine and nine months
confinement in the Ramsey county Jail.
Stearns must serve eighteen months in
Saltwater and pay a fine of 81, 900. The
first conviction was secured through the
vigorous prosecution conducted by
United States District Attorney Houpt
aud his assistant, j. NJ Dickey,
The actual survey Of the proposed
new railroad from Yankton to the gulf
was started last Monday, a corps of
twelve surveyors being set to work on
the first sect on from Yankton to the
southern border of Kansas. The sur
vey after crossing the river will take
the west side of the divide TO the east
ward of the old Norfolk grade, which
will be followed a slight distance to the
east. Croftoa will be the first town that
will be reached. After leaving Norfolk
the line will pass through David City,
Seward, Fairbury and Washington,
Nebraska, aud Abilene, Newton and
Wichita, Kansas. At Wichita the line
will be just W. miles to the east of
Yapkton, which indicates the air line
character of lhe proposed road. From
Wichita the expectation is to run the
line due south through Oklahoma,
Indian Territory, and Texas to the tide
water.
Peter Knudson, a Charles Mix county
farmer, has reason to believe that il is
better to be born lucky than rich. He
was engaged in cooking feed for his
stock and had just left the feed cooker
for the purpose Of securing a pail of
water from q nearby well when the
mgchine exploded with terrific force.
The force of the explosion was sufficient
to throw parts of the boiler a distance
of nearly twenty rods. Had Knudson
delayed even thirty seconds in going for
the pail Of water he without doubt would
have been instantly killed.

When the mail man visited the fire
department headquarters at Sioux Falls
last Friday, contrary to the general
rule, he left a letter addressed to each
member of the department including
Chief Arndt, When these letters were
opened they were found to contain a
letter of thanks from the john w. Int
hill Lumber company for the great
work done by the fire boys at tine time
of the fire in the lumber c%ompany's
office building and also enclosing acheck
in the sum of $40 for each man with the
exception of Chief Arndt. In his case
the check was for 800. The Tuthills
are satisfi ed that the prompt action on
the part of the fire department pre-
vented a loss of several thousand dol
lars. Such tokens of appreciation are
always appreciated by the fire boys, not
so much for their intrinsic value as for
the good will that goes with them.
William Howie, one of the pioneers
of M%innehaha county, died at his rural
home, three miles southeast of Sioux
Falls, Monday, February 4, of old age
He was 81 years of age, and is survived
bv one son, William Howie, Jr. The
funeral occurred from the home Thurs.
day afternoon and interment will be

which makes the Scotch the famous
people that they are. He came TO the
United States a young man, and resided
in New York state, coming later to New
York, where he enlisted for the civil
war. In 1870 he came to M%innehaha
county and entered upon the home-
stead which was his home until death
sent him to a brighter one. He had
scores of friends who will learn of his
death with sincere regret.

The blaze started at $50 in the piano

MIR. L. NJ. Nash addressed the

and presented the following report
which, with the report of the Clerk,
were, on motion, ordered spread upon
the minutes.
ITO the Honorable Mayor and Com
mon Council: City.
The subject of comparative school
cost has been given the attention of
the Finance Committee of the Board
of Education and copy of their re-
port is herewith transmitted to your
Honorable Body on motion of the
Board of Education at its last regular
meeting.
Comparative Cost of Maintenance
of Public Schools
The amount raised by direct taxa
tion, in different cities in Wisconsin
of about the same size varies consider
ably, 1t has therefore, seemed best
to get more detailed information
which will explain why the variation
exists.
The amount which is expended by
a. school system, and the amount
raised by direct taxation for school
purposes in city in any given year
depends on several factors
1t depends on the number of chill
dren in the city who are educated in
the public schools. In city in which
a large part of the children are edu-
Gated in the parochial schools. the
school expenditures Will be relatively
light.
The expenditures of any school sys-
TEN will depend on the variety of ed
ucation offered. Where city does
not have as part of school work, music,
drawing, manual training, domestic
science, commercial work, or Kinder
gartenS. OF course. the school expendi-
lures will be light when compared
with city which gives its children
these lines of educational work. Ex-
penditures vary also with efficiency of
the instruction given in these
branches. Some schools are credited
with work in music and drawing
where one teacher is employed for
both studies, given half of her time to
each. Sometimes no teacher is en-
ployed TO direct this work. The value
of the instruction to the pubilS varies

ATTRACTED A GOOD CROWD
Prof. Wills Lecture Resulted in
Adoption of Res olutions.

A large audience assembled at the
Grand Saturday evening to listen to a
lecture upon the subject of Forestry by
Prof. Thos. E. Will, secretary of the
American Forestry association.
His lecture was illustrated BY slides
thrown upona canvas showing the
natural conditions of the forest, ho W
they were destroyed by hres, and re-
moved by the lumbermen OF the coun-
try. 1t was further illustrated by
showing what the government was
doing to replace the forests which
were destroyed by the above methods.
Prof. Will is forcefull and clear
speaker, who has his subject we'll in
hand, and is making it his life work.
His hearers were we'll pleased with
his presentation Of the subject viii Oh
was added to by the illustrations.
At the close of his address the fol-
lowing resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS, the life of the Nation is
dependent upon the conservation and
use of it's natural resources; and
WHEREAS, the forests. ranking
among our chief resources, are being
recklessly consumed and wasted; and
WHEREAS, streams, essential for
agriculture, navigation and water
power purposes are, through forest de-
struction, being seriously impaired
and, in cases, transformed from bless
ings into curses; and
WHEREAS, through forest destruc.
tion in the White and Southern Ap-
plachian mountains, these evils are
now being most flagrantly manifest,
therefor be it
RESOLVED, that Congress, at itl
coming session be, and it is hereby
urged to enact the Appalachian White
Mountain Bill.

1t will be noted that Marsbfield re-
ceiyed from state school fund and
county school fund 1899. 06 more than
Grand Rapids. From other sources.
which include amount on hand at
opening of school year, Marshtield
received SS645.4S more than Grand
Rapids. 1t is evident that Marshield
had considerable amount of money
on hand at the opening of the school
year. Grand Rapids is paying inter-
est on over drafts.
The proportion of pupils enrolled in
the public schools varies greatly ia
different cities of about the same size.
In 1906l907 Watertown, Wis, with
school population of 1904 had only
1853 enrolled in the public schools.
Stevens Point with a school popula-
tion of 3510 had 1870 within the pub
lie schools. Portage with a school
population of Ills had 973 in the pub
lie schools. Menasha with school
population of 1851 had only 755 in the
public schoolS.> Where large diff
ferences in expenditures between diff
tierent cities exist, the cause will
usually be found to be the same as
those which account for differences in
expenditures between Grand Rapids
and Marshtield.
The school conditions in Grand
Rapids and Neenah are about the
same, Neenah has a school popula-
tion of 2076. Grand Rapids 2007. Nee
nah enrolled in the public schools
last year 1916 pupils, Grand Rapids

male teachers. and nearly the same
number of female teachers. Each city
