INSIST ON TRANSPORTATION.
Patrons Of Ames Fourth School Ward,
Employ Legal Aid.

Patrons OF Anee fourtn Scnooi WATo,
Employ Legal Aid.
Special to Times Republican.
Ames, Jan. 24.-Patrons of the Ames
school, living in the Fourth ward, have
employed legal aid in their endeavor
to secure free transportation for their
children from the college or Fourth
ward school to the high school build
ing in Ames.
Before the WEIGH school building
was erected at the college, the Ames
school board paid the transportation OF
pupils living in the Fourth ward. to and
from school Since putting up build
ing for the grade pupils of that ward,
the board does not feel that fares
should be borne for the pupils attend
ing the high school. The Fourth ward
patrons contend that they are situated
at a great distance from the school and
are entitled to transportation. since
they are the only ward of the four so
far from the school.
The board refused to grant their de-
mand, and the matter has been taken
before County Superintendent Welty
However, 1t is definitely decided that
his Judgment on the matter will serve
only as determining factor to decide
which party will bring suit. Neithe:
side will abide by his decision, but will
carry 1t directly to the district court
without even submitting it to the state
superintendent. Outside OF the Fourth
ward patrons and the members of the
school board, very little interest is be-
ing taken in the matter. The Fourth
ward patrons have retained Attorney
E. n. Addison, of Nevada, but the
board has not yet employed legal aid.

Nearly every train bound for the

from the epidemic. Most of these are

Chicago. Jan. 24.-The startling in
crease in the number of cases of con-
tagion, notably scarlet fever, revived
the talk in the city hall for ar emerg-
ency contagious disease hospital. A
request for an appropriation for $780,
600 for such an institution is now be-
fore the council finance committee. If
the epidemic continues the city may
have to establish a temporary hospit-
al to care for the patients.
Efforts of the Mccormick Memorial
institute TO build a. contagious disease
hospital in Chicago may receive more
encouragement from the city council as
a result Of the present scourge. There
is a fund of S1,000.000 for the hospital,
but every time site has been secur-
ed the council has baked the, project
on account of protests of citizens in the
vicinity of the site.
The epidemic is raging in the vicin-
ity of Logan square and Taumbollt

prevent a mere serious spread of the
disease. From these sections of the

Sioux City, Jan. 24.-Still shivering
with recollections of the snow, Beau
regard Weber, of the engineers office.
returned from Mandan, N. D., where he
eminent office. He was snowbound
several days, but the blockade was fin
ally lifted and he came thru on the
first train.
1.-THE snow up there in Dakota is
something fierce" said Mr.. Weber,
land i have not seen as much OF the
beautiful since 1 quit prospecting in
the Rockies, where we had to spread
blankets for the horses to walk on so
they would not sink out of sight in the
forty or fifty feet of snow that filled
the valleys. The snow up north is all
the way from twelve inches to twelve
feet deep and on the government reser-
walton all that can be seen of the build
ings is an occasional chimney or the
peak of roof. 1t is needless to say
that 1 did not do much checking up.
The man who has charge of the res
ervation has a horse in one of the
stables. but to get to it he has been
compelled to dig tunnel several rods
in length and he crawls thru that
daily with. water and hay for his steed.
The poor beast Is not getting much ex-
ercise shut up there in his dungeon Of
snow.
1.-THE reservation is about four miles
from Mandan and Saturday we started
to drive to 1t, but there was such a
blizzard raging that after we had
driven two hours and succeeded In 60
ing one mile we turned back to town.
The blizzard was SO bad that we could
hardly see the horses heads some Of
the time"
Mr. Weber then went on to tell of
the frigid temperature in the train on
which he made his escape. 1t was 35
degrees below zero when he left Man.
dan-so cold 1t was impossible to keep
the coaches warm. Water froze in the
Pullmans so the passengers could not
wash.
The train had been blockaded at Liv-
ingston, Bismarck and several other
cities and was nearly week in cross
ing North Dakota and for that reason
supplies had run rather short and the
porter on the dining car was unable to
replenish them to any extent from the
meager stocks in the blockaded towns.
The passengers accordingly did not
get real meal until they reached st.
Paul.
North Dakota is prohibition state,
but an engineer front the Yellowstone
reserve had some stimulants in his
grip and as Mr.. Weber put it, Just
saved the lives OF the benumbed pas
sengers. who kept on their fur coats
and mittens all the time.
The country roads are impossible
and for that reason but little could be
learned of the conditions Of the farm
ers on the plains, but as there is some
suffering from the cold and shortage
of provisions in the towns 1t is prob
ably much worse in the country.

CHICAGO Horse Market.

The market is less overcrowded than
last week and the receipts are moving
freer at nominally stationary prices.
Eastern buyers compete more urgently
for heavy business offerings and the
weak, declining tendency of values has
thus far the current week been elimin-
ated from the trade and the arrivals
clear easier at fairly steady prices.
Many choice stall-finished drafters
were bid up to s225@29O with the av-

more freely 900 to LOO lb chunks at

Packers Poor
HOG VALUES ABOUT UNCHANGED
Tho Market Was Slightly Lower Than
Yesterday at the Opening, But Clos
ed Somewhat Better-shippers and

Sheep Steady, Best Lambs Strong.

Chicago, Jan. 24-Cattle were steady
receipts exceeding the estimates Buy
ers were filled up, and were indifferent
regarding the days offerings. Ship
pers were out of tile market except in
few instances, and there was poor
demand from the packers.
The strictly good fat cows and heif-
ers, sell we'll, demand for these being
rather urgent on local account. Some
prime cows landed at s4.60@490 and
there was liberal supply of good to
choice grades at $3.S5@4.5O, while
prime heifers landed at s4.9o@5.35 and
many lots made s4.25@4.75. Good beet
cows sold mostly at $350@3.S5, with
medium cows and light heifers at $500
M3.4O. Common beef cows sold down
to $40 and the poor little heifers at
$2.25@2.6O.
Hogs.
The market opened slightly lower
than yesterdays initial prices, but
somewhat better than at the close. Re-
ceipts were rather too liberal for any
improvement in values. Shippers and
scalpers were the best purchasers, and
packers did not buy to any great ex-
tent.
Packers are evidently making siren
uous efforts to hold product down until
they can get the winter crop of hogs
safely slowed away. Thereafter they
will view bull market in the provi-
sion pit with more complacency Ship

Sheep.
Sheep were steady, best lambs again
being strong.
The market on sheep is at the low
point of the year and its condition is
an emphatic refutation of the predic-
ton that there would be scarcity of
mature mutton during the winter
months. It now looks as tho everybody
struggled few thousand sheep into
feed lots direct from the range in the
illusion that nobody else would have
any. The movement Of feeders last
summer from central markets certain
ly afforded no indication of the run OF
fat stuff during the past two months.
On this break fat wethers had to sell
at $5.25@5.40, with an occasional trans
action at $3.50, while $4.75@ 5.00 took
ewes by the thousand that were selling
at $5.OO@5.25 last week. A lot Of fat
ewes had to be carried over from the
previous day, because buyers refused
to look at them and the fresh supply
ran heavily to mature stuff.
