Great Seal.
Secretary.

Some of the questions sent out by the
state board for teachers examinations
are unfair and misleading. For instance,
one question in South Dakota history
was, Name the different towns that
have been the capital Of South Dakota
since statehood" There never has been
but one capital of South Dakota. When
the Territory of Dakota was divided and
the State of South Dakota was created
in 1889, Pierre was named as the capital
and it has remained so ever since in
spite of all efforts to change it. Another
question is, ''1n what way did the Lewis
and Clark Expedition affect South Da
kota?" Not in the least" would be
a correct answer to this question. Had
the question read. Name some exper-
fences of Lewis and Clark while passing
thru what is now South Dakota. or,
''Name some discoveries made by Lew
is and Clark in South Dakota, the ques-
tion might admit of an answer, but we
fail to see how that expedition had any
effect upon South Dakota whatever.

How 10 Remove Rust Spots.

Whenever the ordinary hooks and
eyes have been used on light colored
frocks there are almost sure to be
spots Of iron rust as result. The very
first thing to do IS to rip off the fas-

Then rub each spot Of rust with salts
of lemon and wash out thoroughly. 1t
may be necessary to repeat this two or
three times. hut II Is worth the trouble.

MEXICAN WIZARD WILL
APPEAR WITH CIRCUS
RobIideIIo, Rope Dancer, Is to Be
Important Factor with Ring
ling Brothers

Roblidello, the Mexican wizard of the
Ringing Brothers circus on Tuesday
and Wednesday, September 21 and %.
1t seems a shame to call Roblidello a
wire-walker, as in so doing it tends to
place him with others of that class,
when, as a matter of fact, he is so
vastly superior to any living wire per-
former as to require new manner of
describing his speciality.
This Mexican wonder runs, dances,
stands on his head and turns somer-
saultS on a slender steel cord. He
actually falls down on the wire while
initiating a belated clubman coming
home on unsteady legs. One moment
spectators are laughing at his remark
able antics and the next minute they
are lost in wonder at the skill and
audacity. Nothing like the act was
ever before seen in America.
The three Saxon brothers are another
sensation to be found among the Euro
pean performers. One of the trio lies
on his back and with his feet supports
a plank upon which stands twelve men.
while with his hands and arms he
holds the two largest men that can be
found and a pair of heavy dumb-bells
Two of the brothers form the support
ing structure of a bridge over which
masses a heavy touring car with six
passengers. Arthur Saxon, the head
Of the trio, claims to be stronger than
Samson, and those who have seen the
act have ceased to doubt his claim.
The Schumann performing horses, the
telephoning elephants, the balloon pig
and the double-somersaulting auto
mobile are other instances of the
greatness of the bill.

Preliminary arrangements for police

lice Dishman. While it is the purpose
to allow every citizen to see the chief

The principal streets along which the
president will pass will be roped off,
and patrolmen have been instructed to
see that no person enters the re-
stricted lines.
1t is customary in every city Where
the chief executive visits to haXs a
wild rush and desire to shake the hand
of the president, but such will not be
tolerated, and, although the event of
the presidents visit is still a month
away, police preparations aret being
formulated and only those who are
armed with credentials will be allowed
to personally greet the president.
A score of Pinkerton detectives VIII

safeguarding the president.
School children will be given the f1rst
opportunity of greeting President TAFT,

demonstrations orders have been issued
to prohibit persons approaching the
president.

GREAT CELEBRATION
HELD AT SAN JOSE

SAN JOSE, Sept. 9.-That the glow
ing anticipations of the greatest Ad-
mission day celebration ever held in
California were more than realized was
evidenced by the vast multitude of Wis
itors that thronged the streets today,
the enthusiasm that everywhere pre-
vailed and the splendid program for
the four-days' events that was so
auspiciously begun yesterday after
noon.
Never was the city so profusely or
so attractively decorated, never were
the electric illuminations so brilliant
or so profuse.
From the tall electric tower with its
thousands of colored lights, to the
furthermost reach of other thousands
strung at brief intervals across the
streets, their glow mellowed by red
mission balls, and thousands more IL
Illuminating st. James and City Hall
parks, the entire business portion OF
the city last night resembled a scene
from fairyland.
The great event today was the Ma
tive Sons parade, in which more than
seventy parlors, each with its own spe-
cial uniform, participated. Fifty bands
and drum corps stirred the multitude
of onlookers as for more than an hour
the picturesque procession marched
through the principal streets of the
city.
In addition to the Native Sons and
Native Daughters and friends from all
portions of the state, many thousands
of people from all points in the valley
poured into the city this morning to
see the parade and the combined forces
of paraders and sightseers number at
least $4,000.
The parade in eight impressive divis-
Ions, led by Chief of Police Haley and
Grand Marshal James E. Fitzgerald,
started promptly at IL o'clock, and
both sides of the several streets that
1t covered were lined with spectators
from the starting point to the place of
disbandment.
Successful Parade
1t was the longest, most attractive
and in every way most successful
parade ever held in the state by the
Native Sons.
The literary exercises in st. James
park, beginning at 1:SO p. m. beneath
a canopy of trees, with the green lawn
stretching away on all sides, attracted
an audience that fairly filled the large
and beautiful park.
Superior Judge John E. Richards
opened the program with a few re-
marks pertinent to the occasion, intro
ducing the grand president of the day,
Hon. Joseph r. Knowland, who made
an impressive address.
Remarks by Mayor Dawson were fol-
lowed by an eloquent address by Hon.
Frank ]. Murasky, orator of the day.
This afternoon thousands attended
the baseball game at Luna park be-
tween the Castro team and team Sc
lected from the local parlors. Other
thousands enjoyed the attractions at
the park and about the city, and still
other throngs visited Alum Rock park
or rode over the interurban route to
points.
This evening music and dancing in
st. James park and amusement in
other forms were provided for the Wis
itors. A baby show in the Auditorium,
a horse parade and races between hose
teams will be the chief features of the
day tomorrow.

feature of the celebration of Admission
day in this city.
Almost every conceivable kind of We
hicle was entered. The only decora-

An unusual entry was a team OF

George Renner, president of the Dray-
mems union, assisted by twenty-four
outriders in uniform of blue shirts and
white hats
Ninety judges inspected the process
sion and awarded many valuable
prizes.

age the humane treatment of draught
animals.
