Trustees Elect Officers

The school trustees of jackson dis
trict met Monday evening and elected
the teachers for the ensuing term.
They are j. s. Wylie, who will act
as principal, Miss Gartlin, Miss Nc
Laughlin, Miss Gritton, Miss
Badaracco. Miss Bernecich, Mrs
Caldwell and Miss Amy CLARK. None
of the teachers have been assigned TO
their classes though it is understood
that Miss Amy Clark, having just
received her certificate, will be
assigned 20 the Kennedy school.
The board intends to make ut a
practice to have only experienced
teachers in the main school. John
X. Huberty was reelected clerk of
the board. Jos. Vigua was reappoint-
ed janitur of the school. On account
of two holidays coming the first part
of September, the board decided that
it would be better to open the schools
on the 14th of the month. The sewer
pipe to the schoolhouse has been
finished, but there has been some de-
lay in having the plumbing done.
The board3has given the contractors
few days more time in which 30 file
their bids. An effort has been made
to secure a lot adjoining the school
yard, but the owner and the trustees
could not agree on the price to be
paid for it, they thinking that the
amount wanted is much too high. II
it could be secured the lot would be
graded off and thrown open as part
of the children s play ground.

Amid the towering shapely fir that
raises It's head far heavenward and
mods it amid the evening zephyrs that
play deity with the tasselated tufts
that adorn it's summit, where too that
beauty of the Pacific coast, the sugar
pine stands giant like amid the forest
with its long dropping limbs hanging
umbrella shape downward, aud giving
it very noticeable appearance, where
the maple with its broad green saucer

Gil Cabarubia is the champion
dreamer aud rattlesnake finder of the
season, so far as l have heard. One
morning after getting up he said to
myself and two Others, "a had a
fierce dream last night, 1 dreamed no
matter where ] went l would find
rattIesnakes. - 80 nonsense" said
one of the party, ''there is nothing
in dreams. But strange as il may
seem, it was perfectly verified. From
that day and for six, no matter where
he went he found a Iattlesnake and
killed 1t, and showed us the snakes
after he had killed them. The strange
part of it, myself and two others 60
ing hither and thither saw no snakes,
but what he had killed. We tramped
in the woods, too, probably more
than he did. ''There is nothing in
dreams, " we hear 1T said, but if you
will turn, Marooni-like, and reason
from cause to effect you might meet
with developments that would aston
ish you. These old fogy women that
threw clUaks over their heads to pre-
vent the sunlight of reason entering,
are not the class of mentality for
actual development. There is GER
tainly language in dreams that is
yet to be developed. Had Edison
announced to the public that he was
going to invent an instrument that
would reproduce the human voice
perfectly, they would have laughed
with derisIon at his assertion, but
now he has forced them on to the
stand and they must believe.
The CadoI saw mill is turning out
