Normal Trainino at Chadron.

Chadron, Neb, Nov. 27.-Special to
The News: The normal training de-
partment recently introduced into the
Chadron high school by Superintendent
r. l. Elliott, is proving to be one of
the most beneficial movements ever
made in this section of the state. The
normal training instruction is under
the direction of Miss Celia NJ. Chase,
a recent graduate of the University Of
Chicago, and formerly an instructor in
the Wayne Normal college. AS a re-
suit of the new department the high
school is nearly crowded out, and
many of the teachers of the county are
planning on taking up postgraduate
and normal training courses.

Waqar Under Arrest.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 27.-More
trouble is in store for Ansen Wagar,
former United States commissioner at
Dallas, who early in October was re-
moved from that office by Judge Car
land, of the United States court in
this city.
Wagar at that time was charged
with having used his commissioner
postal frank on postal cards contain
ing printed matter of a private nature.
Formal charges were made against
him by the United States authorities,
and recently he entered a plea of
guilty and was compelled to pay fine
Of $500 for the offense.
Wagar was re-arrested by Deputy
United States Marshal Edwards on
the train in the southern part of the
state and brought to Sioux Falls on a
charge of embeZzlement of funds be-
longing to homesteaders in the coded
portion of the Rosebud Indian reserva-
ton in Gregory county.
The funds alleged to have been EN-.
bezzled by him range in the aggregate
from $4,000 to $4,000 and had been
placed in his hands as commissioner
for the purpose of enabling him to
pay the purchase price of the land for
the homesteaders and also final proof
fees.
Wagar, when taken before United
States Commissioner d. j. Conway this
morning, waived his preliminary hear
ing, The bond for his appearance be-
fore the next federal grand jury was
fixed at $4,000
Wagar disclaims all intention of re-
tanning the money placed in his hands
as an official of the government, al
leging that there was delay in com
pleting the proofs and turning them
over to the United States district land
office. He further claims that he was
on his way to the land Office at Nit
chell with a number of the proofs
when he was arrested
