COMMENCEMENT
An Able Class Graduating from
High School This Year.

This has been commencement week,
and a busy week it is for the schools.
The high school class this year is not
only large one, but also an able one,
and their exercises SO far held have
been very creditable.
The baccalaureate sermon was
preached by Rev. Edward Jones at
Assumption church on Sunday. The
pastor gave an unusually able address
on the necessity of religion, in which
he took broad-guaged view of one
of the prime necessities of a success
full life, and clothed it in most eloquent
words. The music, also, at these exer-
cises, under the direction of Miss
Carney and Mrs. Stenger, was most
uplifting.

OF THE DAY
Turkish Military Leader.

General Mohammed Schefket Pasha,
commander of the Turkish Constitu-
tional forces, looms large in the af-
fairs of the Ottoman empire. Since
the downfall of Abdul Hamid H. there
has been a growing notion that Schef-
ket is virtually dictator, a feeling,
however. that he has attempted to dis
pei. Speaking on this subject recently.
he said:
'The army is merely an instrument
of civil power. The army and as an
officer in it derive our authority to
establish order from the national as
sembly. The ARMY is a finger of parlia-
ment only and works under the will of
the cabinet
Schefket Pasha Is tall, wide shoul-
dered, thin Arab Of Bagdad, with some
Georgian blood. He has been described
as man of extreme composure.
"Some of the members of the COM
mittee," said Rauf Bey, one of the
three who represented the Young
Turk committee in the navy, before
the advance on Constantinople doubt
ed whether Schefket Pasha was the
man for the work ahead. He was so

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Lime Not a Soil Food.

Always bear in mind that lime in no
way takes the place of manures, fer
tilizers or green manuring. 1t simply
remedies a sick condition of the soil
and should be considered rather as a
medicine than as a food. Its use with
out the use of manures or fertilizers
would be much like trying to sustain
the human body on stimulants alone
without the use of food and would re,
suit only in the greater impoyerish-
ment of the SOIL On the other hand,
when man is sick he sometimes
needs medicines to get his system into
condition so it can again assimilate
food, and in the same way soil which
is sick with acid must have that acid
ity cured with lime before it can make
use of the plant food in the manures
or fertilizers. Perhaps my simile Is a
little farfetched, but l think the read
er will appreciate the point which the
writer is trying to make-that lime is
a corrective and not a food.-Alfred
Vivian, Ohio State University, in New
England Farmer.

Make it Four Straight.

Last Monday evening the Indepen-
dents, defeated the Morris High
School Ball Team in very closely
contested game. The game was called
in the 7th inning on account of dark
ness.
The High School sprang little sur
prise when they appeared on the field
with Bailey and Lewis, the Agricul-
tural School battery, and the chances
for a good game looked bright, as it
finally proved.
Both teams put up a good exhibi-
tion all the way thru, but Bloom who
was on the slab for the Independents
received the better support while the
Independents were able to bunch a
couple of hits off Bailey in the 4th
getting one, and again in the 7th they
did the same and with an error got
two more.
Bloom pulled himself out of couple
of bad holes, once in the second in
ming, with second and third covered,
he struck out two and the best the
third man could do was a pop up.
Again in the sixth, the bases were full
and none out but the first two struck
where it wasn't and the best that the
third could do was slow one to the
pitcher.
The High School pulled off double
in the third and a triple in the sixth
both starting from Cooley, who was
in center for them.
Final score
Independents 0 0 2-3
High School 0 0 90
A fairly good crowd attended the
game and the band proved that they
were boosters by appearing on the
scene to enliven things up little.
Next Sunday the Independents in
tend to play Hancock here and good
game is promised. The boys defeated
Hancock at Hancock two weeks ago
by close score, and if the new suits
which are expected here by then do
not prove to be Hoo Doc they ex-
pect to repeat it.

KILLED BY SEWER GAS.
Arthur D. Walters Meets Death
Suddenly at. Indian School.

Arthur Dale Walters, engineer at
the Indian School, met death by as
phyxiation from sewer gas in man
hole on Thursday afternoon.
The sewer at the superintendent's
residence had become clogged, and
Mr.. Walters is supposed to have gone
to the manhole sometime during the
noon hour, and was in the manhole
until about two o'clock when he was
discovered, after he had been missed.
He was removed from the manhole,
and Coroner Caine called, who decid-
ed that death was accidental.
Mr.. Walters must have been over
come too quickly to make an attempt
to save himself. The manhole is only
about five feet deep, and a man of
Mr.. Walters height could stand in
the manhole while his head would be
outside. He was found doubled up at
the bottom, indicating that he never
rose to his feet after STOPPING over to
do his work.
Mr.. Walter leaves a wife and two
children, Emil and Agnes, who are
pupils in the high school. Mrs. Wal
tiers is suffering from chronic appen-
dicitis, and finds her sorrow doubly
hard. Supt. and Mrs. Smith and other
friends at the school and the local
lodge of Odd Fellows, to whom Mr..
Walters belonged, are doing all they
can to assist Mrs. Walters and child
rem in their trouble.
Deceased was born in Indiana on
April 26, 1866 and his aged father still
lives at Frankfort in that state. His
relatives there have been notified, and
a brother-in law is expected to arrive
this morning. Mr.. Walters was man
who was highly respected by all who
knew him, and numbered many
friends both among his associates at
the school and among the citizens of
Morris.
Funeral services will be held at the
school today at $3.50, and the remains
will be taken to Frankfort, Ind, on
the noon train. Jean Sloyd, brother
in-law of the deceased, arrived this
morning, and with Mrs. Walters, will
accompany the remains to Frankfort.

Miss Hulburd Complimented.

The third annual May Music Festi.
val of the Grand Forks Oratorio So.
ciety was held in Grand Forks, N. D..
last week and was an event of interest
in the musical world on account of the
number of artists who were gathered
to assist on the programs. Miss Cora
Hulburd, as the pianist, was accorded
unstinted praise, and we are sure hel
many Morris friends will be pleased to
read the following from the Grand
Forks Evening Times -:
"The following number, also by
Saint Saens, was somewhat of an an
thithesis in subject and style. Saint
Saens is always clever and versatile,
His piano concerto has much to com
mend it; it is beautiful and well
worked out. Miss Hulburd handled
this difficult work with great ease,
and was much at home. Her execu-
ton was clear and brilliant and was
especially well shown by her clear
and precise rendition of the very diff
fcult passage work of the first move
,ment. Her rythm and Interpretation
were remarkable throughout. The
tempo of the Scherzo was rather rap
id, but she handled it well, and Mr..
Oberhoffer and the orchestra accom-
panied her exactly and well. The
number throughout was remarkably
well played, and it should be source
of much congratulation to the city
that it has such wonderful and ar
tistic pianist. Miss Hulburd deserves
very great credit, and much is to be
expected from her."

Special Meeting Called.
To the Public:

/ 10 LQ6 GuUlIC.
i A meeting of the citizens of Ste
vens county and of adjoining coun-
ties is hereby called to be held in
the armory in the City of Morris on
Saturday, June 10, 1909, at 3o'clock
in the afternoon of that day, to con-
slider what follows:
by an act of Congress effective
in July, 1910, duly accepted by the
| legislature of 1909, the Indian school
| properties in their entirety, situated
| at Morris, were granted to the state
of Minnesota, upon the condition that
said properties shall be equipped and
| maintained as an Agricultural school,
21The legislative act Of accep-
tance did not definitely provide for
the management and administration
of the properties as an Agricultural
school, but did appropriate $1O,OOOo0,
available after July, 1910, not before
then, to equip and maintain the
school.
Sit is now understood that pur-
suant to the act of congress grant
ing the property to. the state, the In
terror Department either has turned
the properties over to the state upon
the condition that the care and Gus
tody thereof and the equipments and
maintenance thereof until July, 1910,
is arranged for.
4-In the absence of legislation
definitely providing for the custody
and administration of the properties
it is understood that their custody is
in the governor of this state who,
however, is understood to have no
funds at his disposal which may be
used for the equipment of the pro-
perties for agricultural school pur-
poses or for the maintenance thereof
after SO equipped, but for the pur-
poses of the meeting referred to in
paragraph l hereof, it is assumed
that if proper arrangements may be
y
care and custody of the properties un-
til July 1910, and equipping the same
for and opening the same up as and
for the maintenance of the same as
an Agricultural school until then, the
governor of the state may be able
to see that he will be authorized to
let steps be taken to that end 1t is
therefore thot to be desirable and
advisable that all citizens of Stevens
county and adjoining counties who
may have boys or girls whom they
wish to avail themselves of agricul-
tural school advantages or who for
any reason may take an interest in
having an agricultural school opened
up at Morris early this fall, shall ex-
hibit enough interest in the said
matter to be present at and partici-
pate in the meeting called for that
purpose 32-3t.
