The Right Rev. Franklin 5. Spald-

this morning at the st. Mark

OF the ceaseless blessings OF God be-

nor at Desloge next Monday after
noon and escort him To Pennington.
The reception will take place at
eight O'Clock Monday night. Every

Everyone is asked to come, and
every effort will be made to make
you feel welcome. As an American
citizen the Archbishop stands very
high, and II We saw no more in him
than that, we should have worthy
motive for honoring him.
After meeting the Archbishop,

niaed throughout the country. &.

ACTIVITY IN OPTIONS.

The Doe Run Lead Company has
for several months been acquiring
options on land In the vicinity Of
Doe Run and south of the St. Fran
cois river, but 1t has been little
more active in the past week, hav-
ing secured options on half dozen
or more tracts. We understand
that some of the other companies al
so have had agents out looking for
options in that vicinity. This OF
course does not mean that there Is
lead under these lands, but the com
panies evidently think that there
may be and that they are worth
holding and prospecting. Some OF
the land is pretty close to Farming
ton, and we hope they may discover
rich deposit that will justify then
In developing 1t.

DECLARED INSANE.

The ease Of State of Missouri
against Dudley II. Thomson was
called last Wednesday, and on atii-
davit of VIM. London, Sheriff, he
was placed on trial to determine IA
to whether or not he Is now sane or
insane. The jury promptly found
him insane.
Some time last December Mr..
Thomson, for some faucied wrong,
shot Miss Bette White in one of
her lower limbs, and assaulted her
pistol. The Whites and Thomson
lived near DcLassus and their lands
joined. Thomson imagined that the
Whites were stealing wood from him
and committed the fclOnies mem
toned above.
II developed in the meantime that
Thomson had been committed to an
insane asylum in Tennessee as early
as 1871, aud since being out near
DeLassus has shown signs Of in
sanity. He seems to think every

PROPOSITION TO BOND
DISTRICT FOR $1,000
The Pennington School Board Orders
Election to Vote on High School
Building.

At it's meeting on the 10Th inst.
the Pennington School Board made |
an order for special election, TO be
held on Tuesday, June Sth, sub
mitting n proposition to bond the
district for so, 900 for the purpose OF
erecting n high school building and
rebuilding the colorcd school house,
which was recently destroyed by
fire.
While there IL no question of the
great and crying need of Il high
school building worthy the town and
district, it seems to us that the
board has gone at the matter In IA
half-hearted manner not calculated
to crente the interest in the enter
prise that is necessary to carry 1t to
successful conclusion.
In the first place, the time for
working up favorable sentiment
and impressiug the tax payers OF
the district with the Importance and
necessity of n high school building
is too short. In the second place,
no notice of the action of the board
was given until May 2lst, when a
few typewriter notices were posted
ut several points in the district to
inform the people that such M cleo
tion has been called, and now only
twelve days remain until the day OF
election. In the third place ii would
have been better To have secured
options on two or more sites and
| submitted them To he voted on along
with the bonding question, as n fail
urn to do this Is liable to cost the
proposition some votes.
The proposition to carry must re-
ceive two-thirds of the votes east at
the election, and twO-thirds vote
is pretty hard thing to secure un-
less there is n very strong and posi-
tive sentiment in favor Of the ques-
ton voted on. People are very
slow in all matters of voting ad'
ditional tax upon themselves, ano
many of the voters must be edu'
Gated up to the imperative need OF
such "A tax before they can be In
duced to vote for it. This requires
not only a little time but an active
organization and energetic work
and agitation, that the matter may
be- presented to them in its various
phases.
But the election is called and th'
t dny named, SO it is the duty %
everyone Interested in the uphuild
ing of our public schools to do al
In his power to interest others Ii
r the enterprise and get out the voters
Pennington lags in the matter O
providing sufficient school room
, and our public schools will never b.
, what they should until the people .
the town wake up along this line
No enterprise wonld help Farming
ton more than good, well-cquippet
public high school.
