ton on August %, according to the fig
ures of the crop reporting board OF the
department of agriculture is S.4 per
cent. better than it was at the CORE
sponding date last year, it is lowered
by 3.4 per cent than it was month
ago. It is 4 per cent lower than 1t
was at this time in 1903, and is per
cent below the average for the last
ten years.
Officials of the department Of ag-
riculture declined to estimate the ef-
feet of the figures made by the crop
reporting board. The crop of cotton,
by reason of existing high prices, has
been practically exhausted. Twenty

as possible and from now on the crop

DALAI LAMA NOW
IN DARJEELING
Fights Battle With The
Chinese Amban, But
Is Defeated

The Dalai Lama, recognized head
of the Buddhistic church and an in
carnation of Buddha, Is safely en-
sconsed at the Drum Druid Hotel in
Darjeeling, whittier he fed owing to
the persistent contempt shown him
and the studied ignoring of his au-
thority by the Chinese Amban.
The Dalai Lama OF Thibet arrived
at Lhassa four months ago armed
with authority from Picking to take
over the administration from the
Provisional Governors, appointed as
the result of the Younghusband Mis-
sion. Many monasteries had been
despoilcd by the Chinese. notably
that at Dabung aud many monks
had been massacred.
The Dalai Lama had reason to re-
monstrate with the Chinese Amban
on account of the excuses of Chi
nese troops on the Szechuan from
and sacking monasterles. This re.
monstrance brought to head the
whole question OF the respective po-
sitions of the Amban and the Dalai
Lama. The former said that Thibet
had been proclaimed a Chinese prov
ince; he, therefore, was the sole
judge of what methods were expe-
dent in the dealing with the from
tier rebels. The Dalai Lama quoted
the letter of authority given him at
Picking.
Since the withdrawal of the Brit
ish from Thibet, the Chinese have
been drafting troops In large COM
panies into the country, and a mill
tary environment has been formed
three miles from Lhassa, with $500
trained Chinese soldiers armed with
magazine rifles and modern srtil-
lery.
The Amban stated that he would
move these troops into Lhassa IL the
Dalai Lama did not conform to his
views. Some companies of Lamas,
armed with old fiint-lock weapons,
were hastily enrolled under the title
of Golden Soldiers" A fierce bat
tie was fought in the market place,
and the Thibetans were routed.
The Dalai Lama with a large fol-
lowing made his escape, and, having
crossed the Chaksham ferry, destroy
ed all the boats, and thus hamper
ed the pursuing Chinese. Although
pursued by the Chinese, by making
forced marches, they eventually ar
rived at Yatung, in the Chumbi VAL
ley, thence by easy marches reach
Ing kalimpopg, In British Sikhim.
Here they were entertained at the
scotch Presbyterian Mission, IN
charge of Rev. DR.. Graham, and,
having rested after their long march
and, privation, the journey was con-
tinued to Darjeeling, which city
they entered in state.
The arrival of the Dalai Lama has
caused the greatest excitement IN
Bhutan and Nepal. His Holiness Is
accompanied by the Maharajah-Ku-
mar of Sikhim, sixty ministers, three
hundred troops, and followers. A
Durbar will be held and the Brit
ish Government will be petitioned to
arbitrate the matter.
Tire Dalai Lama has a slight,
though well-knit, figure. His face
is thin and deeply pitted with small
pox, and one is not very apt to as
sociate him as being an incarnation
of Buddha.

Cheese Factories Open.

Beginning May 1st the cheese fac
tories of this county started on their
1909 production of cheese. The outlook
for the farmer is excellent, prices gen
orally being higher than last year and
the highest ever paid for milk. For
the dealer, however, the outlook is not
so good. While but little of the brick
and limburger remains in the hands of
the dealers, prices have gone down per-
ceptibly the past few weeks. For the
next few months there is little prospect
that the dealers will get better prices,
and it is not likely that they will force
their product upon the market toe rap
idly. Nearly three hundred factories
are now in operation in the county, the
majority of which will manufacture the
brick and limburger varieties for some
weeks. Five new factories have been
built in the county the past few weeks,
four of which are in the market dis
trict of this city. Brodhead Register.

On the morning of April 80, 1910,
Richard Dowse passed to his rest after
an illness of nearly eleven weeks. He
was born at Frampton, near Boston,
Lincolnshire, England, Aug 20, 1849.
He was married to Miss Ella A Hadley
of Porter, Rock county, Wis, Dec 18,
1890, and lived on a farm in Porter
township about seven miles from Ev-
ansville.
This city was the scene of some
what peculiar incident last Sunday
night. Two men arrived here on a
train from the north in the course of
the evening, and after spending some
time at the Commercial house and wan
dering about the city part of the night,
proceeded to hide sum of money which
they had with them, for fear they
should be robbed. They then spent the
remainder of the night in barn. In
the morning, being confused as to their
whereabouts and not being able to To-
cate the spot where they deposited
their valuables, they sought the aid of
the chief of police, and after consider
able search their money! two thousand
dollars was found buried in the rear
of the residence of Geo L Pullen. Mar
shall Broughton, fearing that the money
had been stolen, telephoned to Arena,
where the men, who gave the name of
Roach, said they had come from. Their
story being verified the money was re-
turned to them and they were allowed
to depart. They claimed to be on their
way to buy land.

Teachers Must Go To School.

After July 1st, next, no public school
teachers certificate can legally be IS
sued to any one in Wisconsin who has
not attended professional school for
teachers for at least six weeks and re-
ceived credits in at least two studies,
school management and method of
teaching. This is in accordance with
chapter 378, statutes of 1909. Two
classes of teachers are excepted, those
who have successfully taught in the
public schools for eight months or more
prior to July LIST, next, and those ap-
pointed to positions where the supply
of legally qualified teachers of the
county has been exhausted.
The purpose of the law is to secure a
higher standard of teachers, especially
for the rural schools, and it is in line
with laws of a similar character re-
Gently passed in California and several
other states. The law will not affect
teachers who have received credits in
school management and methods of
teaching from county training schools,
state normal schools, colleges or uni
verSities.
The new law will affect about 1000
persons who desire to become public
school teachers in Wisconsin, and will
compel them to attend professional
schools six weeks this coming summer
to qualify.
