SCHOOL CENSUS
SHOWS INCREASE
WARD COUNTY THE BANNER DIS
TRlcT-NEARLY ALL CoUN-
TIES MAKE RETURNS.

Bismarck, N. D.. Aug. 2s.-The ap-
portionment of the school fund for
August will soon be made. Nearly all
of the counties have returned their
census reports and when the few
stragglers have been sent in the divi-
sion will be made. There are some in
teresting figures in connection with
the apportionment.
In 1904 the apportionment for the
entire year was only $S50.424.70, while
the August apportionment for this
year Is alone 1888, 514.10, over s35,
more than for the entire year OF 1904.
There have been three apportion-
ments made this year so far, and they
total $679 9,927.10 and with the Novem-
Der returns yet to be heard from this
shows a wonderful increase in the FIVE
years.
Following are the counties that
have reported so far In the school
census, and their school population
for 1908 and 1909, and the present in
crease or decrease.

GIRL MAY DIE
FROM INJURIES
SERVANT EMPLOYED IN A TRAILL
COUNTY HOUSEHOLD HAS A
TERRIBLE ExPERI-
n ENcE.

HiHsboro. N. d., Aug. 2S.--A deplor-
able accident occurred on the Chris
tian Kaldor farm in Norway township
which may result in the death of the
unfortunate victim.
Miss Laura Spencer, domestic on
the place, had started fire in the
kitchen stove and was attempting to
nelp it along with kerosene poured
from can. ARrsexplosion occurred
and the young woman was instantly
covered with the burning oil. she had
the presence of mind to run out and
roll in the grass, thus extinguishing
the flames. -.
Her cries brought neighbors to the
scene who at once called DR.. Ander-
son. He removed the patient to his
hospital in this city where she is now
receiving the best of care. It was
found that her face, arms and legs
are badly burned and her injuries may
prove fatal, although there is some
hope Of her recovery.
Miss Spencer's home is at Christine.
N. D., from where her mother arrived
to care for her.

severely injuring her. Her own moth
err has been dead several years. and a
sad feature OF the case is that the girl
Is somewhat feeble minded, and APP
plication has been made for her adnis-
sion TO the school for feeble minded at
Grafton. The girl, however, lis suffer
ing severely from her injury. and an
examination by DR.. Alexander yester-
day showed that appendicitis was at
hand. Probably arrangements for an
operation will be made at once, and
Ii the unfortunate girl survives the
operation, she viii then be taken to the
Grafton institution. The father Is in
limited circumstances. but shows more
feeling In the matter than the unnat-
ural step p-mother. He has raised 500
to pay for his daughters first year at
the school, but as an operation is now
necessary, probably the $40 win be
used to partly defray the expenses OF
the operation, after which the county
will be asked to advance the necessary
funds to place the girl In the school
for feeble e-minded. 1t Is certainly q
case that should bring tears to the
eyes OF the most hardened wording.

High Winds ARE
SHELLING WHEAT
GREAT DAMAGE Is REPORTED BY
FARMERS IN VICINITY OF
DEVILS LAKE.

Devils Lake, N. D., Aug. 23.---Every
acre of grain in Ramsey county is dead
ripe, and the high winds of yesterday
and today are shelling IL out fast.
Within three days every field, whether
early or late sown, has ripened under
the warm rays Of the sun driven by a
80 to 40 mile per hours gale. Not one
farmer in ten was prepared for such an
emergency, and certainly none expect
ed it. AS a rule the fields ripen in
the order that they are sown, and by
commencing cutting as soon as the
grain first sown is ready the harvest
ing force can keep up with the ripen-
ing grain. But the hot winds have
ripened all the grain at once and a lot
Of damage has already been done,
which will increase as long the the
wind keeps blowing.
