MISS SHAslBERLAIN HERE.


State Superintendent Belle Cham
beriain visited Blackfoot this week
and was busy with school matters.
Superintendent McComb took her out
70 Qroveland to see the place anA
new school building. That y one Of
The places whore people IRE much
interested N school matters. and It
was also one OF the localities where
there was trouble last year TO gst
al the children Ia school during the
beet harvest. s
Miss Chamberlain is quite anxious
that this troublesome question be-
met sQuarely by school officers and
parents, and that people determine
whether the beets or the children are
Of greater importance. She wants
to see the children Of both rich and
poor do their part, but It Ia not her
purpose to make any compromises
with those who do not appreciate the
value OF education. and deliberately
plan their crops SO 1t will be impos-
sible to handle the beet harvest ex-
cept by child labor. She says the
rich and prosperous state OF Idaho
must do better than that, and that
Bingham and Fremont counties are
the only places In the state where
there Is any serious trouble about
this matter, and expressed the hope
that school officers will take the
same strong measures this year that
they did last. with the exception that
last year great many permits were
issued for children under fourteen
to be absent from school, and now
that people have had the year to
plan for 1t, such permits should not
be issued as they were last year.
A short time ago the Department
Of Interior sent man to Idaho to
gather data to see what the federal

er things that are building up SO
rapidly, and he called ON the state
superintendent first to have talk
with her about It. When she told
him OF the conditions throughout the
state he was very much surprised
and took a tour of the state to see
for himself. Then Ne returned to
Boise and said he had come to take
on his hat to the school system OF
Idaho. That in all the older places
he found good buildings well kept,
and In the new towns and places
where they are laying out towns, he
found the inevitable two-story build
Ing Of brick or stone, all modern,
and In many places organized on the
consolidation plan. # .@'
He said that Idaho did not need
his help and he asked Washington
for further orders. ~

But as the same Sacred Council prescribed that
said Decree should be published in all the parishes

which it had been promulgated, it has happened
that many places in which the publication has not
been made have been deprived of the benefit of the
Trdentine law, and are still without it. and con
tinue to be subject to the doubts and inconvenience
of the old discipline.
Nor has all difficulty been removed in those
places where the new law has been in force For
often there has been grave doubt In deciding as to
the person of the parish-prest before whom mar
riage is to be celebrated. The canonica discipline
did indeed decide that he is to be regarded the
parish-priest in whose parish one or other of the
contracting parties has his her domice quasi
domicile But as it is sometimes difficult to judge
whether quasdomicile really exists in a specified
case not few marriages were exposed to the dan
ger of nudity: many. too, either owing to ignorance
or fraud have been found to be quite ilegitimate
and void.
These deplorable results have been seen to hap
pen more frequently in our own time on account of
the increased facility and CELEBRITY of intercommu
nication between the different countries, even to
those widely separated 1t has therefore seemed
expedient to wise and learned men to introduce
some change into the law regulating the form of

experience has sufficiently shown the many dan

girls and afterward giving rise to inextricable dis
sensions and disputes.
Influenced by these circumstances, our Holy
Father. Pope Plus X, desiring, in the soicitude he
bears for all the churches to introduce modi-
fcations with the object of removing these draw
backs and dangers, committed to the S Congre-

TEXAS FLOOD DAMAGE HEAVY
Many Lives Lost and Thousands Homeles
In the Southwest.


DALLAS. Tex. May 2s.-The worst food
Of which Dallas has any record came unex-
pectedly about O'Clock this morning with
a rush Of water from the upper tributaries
Of Trinity River. where on Saturday and
Sunday there had been oloudbursts.
The water seemed to come hlse a great
wave and the surprised resldents Of the
suburbs of Dallas were terror stricken.
The water ran to 80 feet. nearly clever
feet higher than ever before recorded.
More than 1000 houses are Inundated in
Dallas, 5000 persons are without shelter
and the number Of lives lost 10 estimated
all the way from twenty to 100. Property
damage is estimated at $1,000. 600. All
railroad traf1o is paralyzed. Telegraph
and telephone lines to the West and South
have been down all day.
The big Commerce street bridge was
wrecked and 600 feet Of the Texas and
Pacific Railroad bridge was swept away.
Tracks. bridges and trestles OF other lines
are badly washed.
Great loss was suffered at Fort Worth.
where>the damage may reach 81. 500 900.
Points in Oklahoma and elsewhere report
the high waters subsiding.
Denison, Tex, tonight reported that the
Red River rose "a feet In eight hours.
Guthrie, Okla, reports that hundreds OF
railway travellers are marooned there.
Reports from all over the Southwest tell
OF rivers and other streams out of their
banks, towns flooded and railroads washed
away.

Divers Current Reports.

Divers current Reports.
report having gained currency that
an increase in the price of coal Is contem-
plated unless the miners accept a reduc-
ton In wages after April !, 1909. the fol-
lowing, statement Is made on behalf Of the
anthracite operators:
"As the existing agreement with the
miners remains in force until April /. 1909.
no consideration has been given to the
terms or conditions Of new one. nor has
an advance in the price Of coal been CON-
templated, notwithstanding that the cost
Of mining has greatly increased since 1908,
when the present wage arrangement went
into effect. This increase is due TO . num-
ber Of causes. among them being the ex-
haustion Of the more accessible and richer
veins, the increased cost OF materials,
notably timber; the installation Of electric
haulage and, as mining gets deeper and
more difficult, the provision OF more ex-
pensive safety devices.
Another report has been persistently
circulated to the effect that plans are under
way looking to the distribution OF coal
direct to retail consumers This rumor 10
without foundation In truth, as the mining
interests have no desire TO extend the field
OF their activity beyond the mining and
manufacture Of coal and ita delivery in the
Wholesale markets where II may be needed
