Desire That New No. 9 School
Be Built on New
Site.
LAND TO BE BOUGHT.
SOME TROUBLE HAS BEEN EN-
cOUNTERED IN PURCHASE AND
THEREFORE MATTERS HAVE
BEEN SOMEWHAT DELAYED.

Nineteen out of twentyone patrons
of district school No. 8, have petition
ed township trustee Potter to locate
the proposed new bilding on an acre
plot of ground across the road from
the present site east of the city. If
the trustee can purchase the land need
ed, the school house will be placed
there. The trustee can not change
the location Of a school building with
out the consent of the patrons. Some
trouble has arisen in regard to the pur-
chase of the land but it is believed
everything will be arranged amicably.
Several weeks ago it was decided by
the school authorities of the township,
that a new building ought to be erect
ed for this district. 1t was proposed
to locate it on the site of the present
structure, which is short distance
south of the Norman switch. east of
the city. An investigation by the
trustee showed that in case this site
were chosen the building would be too
close to wet weather" ravine to in.
sure the health of the pupils. 1t was
suggested that an acre of ground on
the east side of the road be purchased
but up to the present time the trustee
and owner have failed to agree upon
the terms.

Washington, D. c., April 25.-The
sundry civil appropriation bill was re-
ported to the house today by the ap-
preparations committee. 1t carries
S105,715,369. Chairman Tawney, OF
the committee, said: The estimates

of the government for sundry civil eX-
penses for the next fiscal year far eX-

lures in any previous year in our his

estimates were prepared for submit
lance to Congress last September.
when the revenues of the government
were far in excess of current expendi-
lures. Before congress convened the
financial stringency came on, resulting
in a very material falling off in the
government revenues. This necessi-
tated a thorough examination of the
estimates with a view of ascertaining
the amounts actually required.

New Members of the Upper

Washington, April 25.-Tjme was
in the senate when new member
who ventured to oppose the ruling
coterie-Or the old-timers-would be
so thoroughly disciplined that he
would not forget in years. Time was
when new senators sat still and list
ened when the Old-timers spoke and,
if they had feelings persuading them
to arise and offer a criticism. they
smothered them. The Old-timers
were the bosses.
That time was. 1t is not the case
at present. The young senators are
kicking over the traces with a vehe-

larly startling to the old-timers them

SCHOOL BOARD STEPS IN.
GIVES ORDERS THAT NO MORE
COPIES SHALL BE PUBLISHED
WHEN MERCHANTS ARE ASKED
FOR ADVERTISING.

With a resounding thud, the Rich
mond school board has put its foot
down on the budding journalists Of
the high and Garfield schools and the
merchants, bored by frequent con-
facts with juvenile advertising solic-
itors, are heaving signs of relief.
About a month ago three or four
high school boys started a monthly
paper called the High School Reflec-
tor. This paper was private bust
ness undertaking on the part of its
youthful proprietors. Numerous mer.
chants subscribed for advertising
space and as result it is alleged the
four lads made quite a little money
out Of the first issue. When the school
board heard of this move it was pre-
pared to squelch it, but the editors
hearing the rumblings of this pros
pective action, ceased publication.
Prof. Will Earhart, musical super
visor Of the public schools, will pub
fish a sixteen page Reflector this
month for the benefit of the high
school orchestra, but there will be no
advertising in the issue and all the
receipts will be devoted to the pur-
chase of musical instruments.
After the first issue of the Reflector
the Garfield schools budding journ-
alsts became fascinated with the fad
and decided to get out monthly Off
cial paper of that school. All plans
were made and the advertising solicit
tors were placed on the streets
Three of them one day went into the
Nusbaum dry goods store and asked
Mr.. Nusbaum, who is member of the
school board, to take advertising

Juvenile solicitors had departed he
called up Superinte ndent T. A. Mott

he begins all over again and goes it

Noted for His High Character.
In complete denial of the charges
of malicious purpose to deceive, Mr..
Wyatt will be able to present the
evidence of practically every citizen
Of two counties to sustain his high
character for forty years as
business man in this communl-
ty And, in addition, he will
show to the standing committee that
to do as he is charged with doing
would be for him to act altogether
without a motive. since he could not
profit in any sense by so doing. And,
last O fall, he will assert that he had
no reason to desire to cause his breth-
rem harm, since they were one and all
his good friends.
Some time before the failure of the
Commercial bank, Mr.. Wyatt removed
to Lordsburg, Cal. There he became
prominent in the counsels and welfare
Of the church and as has been stated
in former dispatches, the people there
have refused to believe the charges
against him. Letters from LOrdsburg
say Mr.. Wyatt is prepared to deny ev-
cry charge and defend himself against
every allegation.
The annual meeting will be held
early in May at Des MOines. Iowa, and
decision may be expected soon after
the adjournment! about May 20.

STATE BOARD WANTS
BABIES PROTECTED
To Push Fight Against Unsani-
tary Diaries.

With view to keeping the mortal
ity rate among infants down to the
lowest possible point this summer. the
State Board of Health has decided to
push unrelentingly the movement for
sanitary diaries. Already the rigid
inspection has been begun. and it will
be kept up throughout the summer.
H. f. Barnard, State food and drug
commissioner, says there are many
filthy diaries in the State. and in ad-
dition to this an alarming source of
danger just now seems to be the prev
alent infection of dairy COWS with tu-
berculosis. This condition also will
be taken care Of and dairymen who
have infected herds will not be per
mitted to dispose of their product I'M
til the diseased COWS have been re
moved.

NEW RACE PERIL
BROUGHT TO NOTICE
No Allowances Made for
Waste in Child Life.

London, April PA new race peril
is brought to notice by Professor Karl
Pearson, through his Investigations in
England on the inheritance of tuber-
culosis. He finds that the first one
or two children born are more likely
than others to be tuberculous and to
inherit defects of the parents. The
modern tendency to limit families to
one or two children therefore not only
makes no allowance for the inevitable
waste of child life, but also must in
crease the proportion of weak and
diseased individuals in the commun-
ity.

Butchers Inference.

One day Emperor Francis Jo-
seph was entering village in his
domain on horseback and was met
on the outskirts by butcher who
had gone out in hope of catching
an early glimpse of the Austrian
kaiser. The emperor asked the
butcher the way to an inn, and,
after directions had been given,
the butcher in turn inquired:
"Have you seen the kaiser?'
Every recently, answered Fran
els Joseph.
"Are you sure? Do you know
him certainly?' asked the eager
butcher.
We'll, l ought to- replied the
monarch, putting out his chest. II

"Ah, and you are the court bar

awestruck tones, as he dotted his
cap and backed to the roadside.
