State Superintendent Of Public In
struction Stockweu stated yesterday
that with the report of the state
treasurer showing q little more than
1855, 1000 in the penalty and interest
fund of the school lands, and with the
fact that this will undoubtedly be
raised to over 100000 by the time
of the next apportionment, another
record is due to be broken in North
Dakota, as that is the largest amount
of money that has ever been appor'
toned in the history of t1e state for
that purpose.
It means a per capita apporition-
ment of about 81 for the school child
rem of the state.
Taking Burleigh county for an ex-
ample, it is stated that the entire ap-
portionment after the county taxes
are counted in will be nearly So per
capita. This is a nice increase over
anything of the kind that has ever
been done before for the schools of
the state.

chosen as part of the representation
for the Bismarck schools: Paul

80 per cent; Eva Hess 100 per cent;

won by Miss Nichols with percen-
tage of SO IL.
The county contest will be held on
the evening of the 18th, when it is
expected there will be large number
of outside schools represented and
fighting for a chance to send a rep
sentative to the state contest, which

Great interest is being taken in the
state contest and it is expected that
nearly every county in the state will
have a representative here at that
time.

Out of Tune.

A piano tuner employed by city
firm was sent to certain suburb to
tune a piano. He found the instru-
ment in good condition and not In the
least need of attention. A few days
later the firm received a letter from
the owner of the piano, a lady Of mu'
steal intention. saying that the plano
had not been properly tuned. 1t was
no better than before. After receiving
a reprimand from his employer the
hapless tuner made another trip to the
suburbs and again tested every note
only to find. as before, no fault with
the instrument. This time he told the
lady so.
EYES," she said, 1T does seem all
right, doesn't it, when you play on 1t,
but as soon as begin to sing It gets
al out Of tune again."

A Strenuous Day In tho Arctic With

the Peary expedition will ever forget
the 3Oth of August. The Roosevelt

climbed, the deck to the port side and
saw what had happened. A big foe
rushing past with the current had
picked up the grounded berg to which
we were attached by the hawsers and
dashed it against the Roosevelt and
clear along her port side as if that
thousand ton berg had been a toy.
The berg brought up against another
one just aft of US. and the Roosevelt
slipped from between the two like a
creased pig.
As soon as the pressure was relaxed
and the ship regained an even keel we
discovered that the cable which had
been attached to the foe berg at the
stern had become entangled with the
propeller 1t was u time for lightning
thought and action. but by attaching
heavier cable to the parted one and
taking q hitch around the steam cap

MacMahon and Grevy,

In Paris in the revolution Of 1890 q
law student was soundly kicked by
one Of the kings officers for tearing
down copy Of the ordinances placard-
ed on the wall. The officer was armed,
the student was not, so the latter ran
away. Nearly half century later, In
1879, the officer called upon the stu
dent to bid him goodby, having just
resigned the presidency Of the French
republic on account Of radical differ
ence with the majority Of the national
assembly on questions of state policy.
He combined with his adieus also q
graceful word of congratulation on the
students election to succeed him In
the presidential chair. Tue student
was Jules Grevy; the officer was Pa
trice de MacMahon, who died ripe In

PREPARING RECEPTION
FOR THE new BISHOP
COMMERCIAL CLUB AND PEOPLE
WILL COMBINE WITH THE.
CHURCH.
Expected There Will Be At Least
When Bishop 10 Installed.

The Commercial club and the citi
zens of Bismarck are, making plans
to join with the members of the
Catholic church in preparing a recep
ton for the new bishop, Father
Wehrle, when he comes here to be
installed the latter part Of the pres
ent month.
It is expected that there will be
about three hundred visitors here al
the time, and they will include in
their number some of the high dig
nataries of the church in the United
States.
The entertainment, that is proper
entertainment, of the visitors will be
a big undertaking, and will require
the cooperation of every person in
the city. Few realize what the bring.
ing of the bishop to Bismarck means
in the way of future development,
but 1t is a fact that there will be a
good deal of building in connection
with getting the proper quarters in
readiness for the transaction of the
business of the diocese.
There will undoubtedly be in the
near future, a cathedral erected that
will be credit not only to the Cath
olics, but to the state of North d.
kota.
Everyone should put their shoulder
to the wheel and assist the Catholics
of the city in giving a proper re-
ception to the visitors who will be
here the latter part of the month in
connection with the installation of
the new leader of the Bismarck Cath
ole diocese.
