The outlook in New York is that
the republicans will have settled their
fight before general election day, and
will support the ticket Loyalty, while
the democrats will have had their
season of peace before and be ready
for a division when ballots really
count. Mayor Gaynor of New York
City seems to have been the logical
man to hold the factions in line, but
he refuses to take the leadership.

Day theHaIIBoy

In this day of complaint against incompe-
tent servants of all sorts it is rather remark
able to study the general utility of the apart
menthouse hallboy. The resourceful New
York woman finds many uses for the liyeried
lad and where he has been tested and found
thoroughly reliable he is often trusted with
responsible duties.
At one of the upper West side apartment
hotels two extremely bright young colOred
men have been employed for four years and
the commissions with which they are trusted
are worth studying. One Of them was seen at
a neighboring bank the other morning deposit
ing money for three guests at the hotel. Sew
era other coored boys in uniform were per
forming a similar service. The receiving tel
Ter at the bank explained that many of his
women deposiors intrusted this work, espe-
cially on stormy days, to hall boys and eeva-
tor boys and that there has not been a single
case Of dishonesty or misunderstanding in the
matter.
In some houses elevator and hall boys are
not permitted 10 run errands, the New York
World says. In others, where two or three
lads are on duty, rules are relaxed and super
intendents are glad to let the boys serve the
tenants. Naturally the boys like to do the err
rands, because there is corresponding increase
in their incomes.

Elevator and hail boys are also intrusted

toward the uptown shops, their arms laden
with all sorts OF wearing apparel, from silk
hats that need ironing to shoes that need half

two bits of money, one from the tenant for

Oklahoma City, Okla.-After to-
day it will be unlawful for any rail-
road in Oklahoma charging more
than 2 cents per mile for the trans
p%ortation of passengers. to collect any
excess charge for cash fares. This

State Corporation Commission re-
quiring Oklahoma railroads., charg-
ing 3 cents per mile by order of the
federal court, to write or print upon
all tickets sold between points in

This serves as a receipt upon which
the passenger is entitled to collect a
rebate in event the supreme court
holds that the state can enforce its

Notwithstanding her protestations.

reached the foot of the stairs shots

Rawn was unable to speak before he

Blood stains on the sidewalk and
the fact that Rawn's revolver shows

think that the robber was wounded
before he escaped.

and was marked by a feeling of hearty

addresses and papers read were of a

was Of an especially high nature. In
the afternoon. the children of the
Congregational Sunday School gave
a song. l.. A. Williams also favored
the convention with a we'll rendered

Symposiums were given by four
practical teachers in the program of
the afternoon: Mrs. F. S. Turney on
the subject of the teachers trus,
emphasized the necessity of al
lowing nothing to take the part of
the Bible in the instruction Of the
children. Mrs. Turney believed that
the children should be interested be-
yond the lesson and that the teach
er should constantly aspire to be
faithful to the little ones in her care.
%. E. Browne emphasized in his talk
the idea that the teachers tools
should be the natural expression and
outgrowth of the life rather than any
manufactured for the purpose. With
regard to the temptations of the
teacher Prof. L. A. Stout emphasiz-
ed the necessity of putting ample
time upon the lessons to be taught
and not delaying till the last as would

stress on the thought that the each

ASSESSMENT FIFTH
OF SELLING PRICES
IN THIRTEEN COUNTIES TAX.
ABLE VALUATION is ONLY
SMALL FRACTION OF
LANDS REAL WORTH. /,

Pierre, S. D.-A summary of land
sales for a few of the eastern coun-
ties of South Dakota indicates that
the average assessment value placed
on lands does not come to a very
large percentage of the selling price
of lands in the same counties, and
the ratio would no doubt hold good
in practically all the counties Of the
state. The summary made by T. A.
Polleys of the Omaha road shows that
in the thirteen counties of Coding-
ton, Clark, Sphinx, Bookings, Hughes,
Minnehaha, McCook, Hanson, Davi-
son, Union, Clay and Yankton. on a
total of 1918 transfers the average
selling price was $3.50 per acre,
and the average assessment price in
the same counties is 1851 per acre.
The average ratio of assessment
price to selling price in these count
les is 1888 per cent. 'rhe lowest is
in Union county where the ratio Is
but 1889 per cent, and the highest
in Hughes county where the ratio is
27.17 per cent. The rest of the coun-
ties cited show ratios ranging all the
way between the two, but Hughes is
the only county in the list which
shows a ratio Of more than Is per
cent Of the selling figures for its as
sessment price, most of them run
ming near 20 per cent. These figures
are based on land sales for the first
half of this year and range from 80
to 175 transactions in each of the
different counties cited in the list.
