County superintendent Completes
Report to State Official.
THREE THOUSAND NOT IN SCHOOL
Average Cost of Tuition per Pupil for
the Entire County IL Two Dollars
and Forty-seven Cents-POr-
tervine the Highest.

The annual report of r. r. Jackson,
county superintendent Of schools in Potta-
wattamie county, which he completed and
forwarded yesterday to j. F. Riggs. state
superintendent OF instruction, contains
some interesting statistics.
In the county the census of the school
year just closed showed there were 1888
children between the ages of 5 and 81 years.
The males prcdominated. there being s,SI2,
as against s,O06 females. over 1900 Of
these did not attend school at any time
during the year. The total enrolment Of
all the schools in the county, including
those in the city OF Council Bluffs, was
1905, while the total average attendance
was only 9.41o.
The average cost Of tuition per pupil for
the entire county. including Council Bluffs,
was S2.47. The highest cost of tuition was
in the independent school district Of Porter
VILE, Lincoln township, where there are
only nine pupils, with an average attend
ance of but seven. The cost per pupil in
this district was $3.50.
Oakland had the distinction of enrolling
| the largest number of nonresident pupils,
namely sixty-thrcc, as against only sixteen
IN Council Bluffs.
Including Council Bluffs, there are 25s
school houses In the county, with Z7 rooms
in the rural schools and 22 in the graded
schools. These schools are scattered
throughout 24 subdistricts. During the
last year there was al average of s.S
months of school work.
During the year thirty-nine male and 51
female teachers were employed in the
county. including Council Bluffs, although
there were only 426 teaching positions. The
number employed shows that in some dis
tricts the teachers were changed two and
| three times during the year. The average
compensation of male teachers was Ss0.SS
and thai of female teachers only $4S.SS.
During the last year the county superin-
tendent granted certificates to ten male
and 2sS female teachers, while three male
and ninety-eight female applicants for GER
t~ificates were rejected. This, County
Superintendent Jackson claims, is a very
low percentage.
One meeting Of school officers and nine

Nonunion Men Forced Ont.

MARSHALLTOWN, Ia, Aug. 26.-(Spe-
cial.)-The non-union laborers employed by
the Iowa Central to fill the places of its
shopmen, who struck on April %, will
beginning with Tuesday, be scattered about
the city in various boarding houses and
hotels, where they will be fed and given
lodging. The boarding firm which has been
boarding the men in the company's shops
today closed its local business. The COM
pany, which has been housing the men in
its car shops, is tearing out the quarters
used by the men. This move forces the
n~on-union laborers to seek meals and
sleeping quarters outside the company's
property. In some quarters about the city
it is expected that the scattering of the
men about town will precipltate numerous
clashes between them and the strikers.

In a suit filed in the district court yester-
day. Furniss NJ. Scarr. a clerk in the First
National bank of this city, seeks to re-
cover from Major George H. Richmond,
chief of police, a diamond ring valued at
$40. A writ of replevin has been issued
In the suit.
Robert Brown, n clerk in the Sargent
shoe store committed suicide between two
and three months ago on being accused
of the theft of a diamond ring and a dia-
mond stickpln, the property OF Scarr. The
ring, the possession of which Scarf now
seeks to obtain was given by Brown to
Miss Margaret Coyle of this city and by her
turned over to Major Richmond.
In the petition filed by Scarf, It is stated
that Miss Coyle also claims ownership to
the ring and that Major Richmond, not
knowing TO whom it actually belongs,
declines to turn 1t over to the plaintiff.
The other diamond which 1t is alleged
Brown was seen to have worn in his neck
tie has never been found. When Brown
left the office of Chief Richmond the
morning that he took his own life, he os.
tensibly went to his room on North Seventh
street for the purpose OF getting a diamond
which he admitted having there. His failure
to return with the stone caused Major
Richmond to send an officer to the young
mans room when the fact of his having
committed suicide was discovered.
