COMO SAPlENzA GETS THE LIMIT

Como Sapienza convicted in circuit
court few weeks ago of manslaught-
er in the third degree was called into
court last week and sentenced by
Judge Kirwan to four years in the
penitentiary, the longest term that
could be given for the OtfenSe.
This is the final chapter of the pro-
ceedings that began in a quarrel be-
tween Sapienza and Il fellow laborer,
Castrovinci, at Grimms last January
in which the latter was killed by a
blow on the head with a crow-bar.
At the trial degrees of homocide
were submitted and the jury found
him guilty of the least ollense short of
acquittal, evidently believing in some
measure in the defendants story of
self-defenSe. The court was of the
opinion that the extreme limit Of four
years was due, and intimated that the
jury had been quite lenient in their
verdict. The Sheriff took Sapienza to
Waupun last Monday.

METROPOLITAN
BUSINESS MEN CALL.

For three hours last Fri lay 70 mem
bers of the Chicago Asso. of Com
merce owned the city. They ar
rived and departed on the steamer
Roosevelt. Although they were then
on almost the last day Of their two
weeks junket all about lakes Michigan
and superior they were apparently
not surfeited with sight seeing and
entertainment. While in the city they
were whisked from one business
concern to another in local motor cars.
Many of the visitors expressed surprise
at the beautiful city here and wonder
ment that our natural advantages had
no resulted in larger city.
The visitors left for Sheboygan and

COOP. CASE HEARD.

Monday a preliminary phase of the
coop case was heard in Circuit court.
The action is for an accounting of the
coop affairs 10y certain stockholders.
The defendants assert that the Organi-
zation was a corporation and if this is
found to be the fact the plaintiffs are
out of court. The issue Of whether or
not the coop was a corporation was
submitted to the court on stipulated
facts and briefs. Six firms of lawyers
appeared in the case. This action for
an accounting and contribution was be
gun by some stockholders who took up
notes by the coop company to a bank.
If the court finds that the status was
that ofa partnership the case will pro-
badly be heard at next term of court.

RAHRS INCREASE CAPACITY.

William Rahrs' Sons CO. have pur-
chased the part of the south half of
the block North of their present malt
house not formerly owned 10y them and
will shortly begin the erection there
of a model brewery. The Rahr's plant
has grown to its present mammoth size
so quietly that one is almost startled to
learn that there are but two larger malt
plants in the United States. The con
templated brewery will be model
architectually, hygienically and for
efficiency, and it is reported that there
will be facilities for brewing a beer
under the processes made famous by
the meuuallcd beers of Munich.

EDUCATIONAL.
BY G. w. MEISNEST
BOOKER H. WASHINGTONO ON THE
COUNTRY SCHOOL

|
"There are few sights more pa
thetic in purely rural districts than the
ordinary country school-house. Usu-
ally it is little lonesome building,
stiff and unattractiye in architecture,
standing out in some old field having
not single thing, either in its loca-
cation, its outward appearance or the
work that goes on inside it, that in
dicate any connection whatever with
the daily life of the people 10y whom
it is surrounded. The very style and
appearance of such a school building
suggests separation between school
life and actual life that ought not to
exist.
"There is no earthly reason why 4
country school-house in location, APP
pearance, or any other respect, should
be very different inside or out, from
the average farmers cottage. In fact
there is no reason why a country
school should not have both the APP
pearance and the character of a model
country home. My notion of coun.
| try school is vine-covered cottage in
the middle of n garden, with fruit and
flowers and vegetables growing all
| about it. 1t should have Il stable
attached with horses, COWS, chickens,
good well, plenty Of hay and fodder,
and little repair shop connected with
| the barn, where boys might learn
something Of the trade that are neces-
sary for farmer TO know. Inside the
school there should be, in addition to
the assembly room, a kitchen, dining
room and bedroom, where the children
might learn to cook their own dinners
wash dishes, set the table, and make
| the beds and take care of the home.
SIN such Il school as | have in mind
also, the teaching of the book should
connect it directly with the interests
and problems of the locality. If the
| school is in a community where dairy
| ing is prominent, there should be q
| vital connection between dairying ano
what is done in the school-room; if in
a grape-raising, coal-mining, cotton
| raising, manufacturing on pOtatO-pro-
ducing community, the same kind OF
connection should be brought about
between the school room and the COM
munity. The Outlook.

ATTEMPT TO BLOW SAFE

Tuesday night yeggmen entered the
krainek store at Buffalo and 10th
streets and after vain attempt to
blow the safe with nitro-glycerine left
in haste, evidently having been fright
ened at their work. The lock and
door of the safe were wrecked but not
enough to permit the rifing of the
safe. Entrance was made through Il
basement window. A crow-bar and
some of the highly volatile "soup"
were left behind. Nothing was Sc
cured by the neryy intruders as the
money from the cash drawers had all
been placed in the safe. The police
have no clew of any value.

TEACHERS SALARIES

County Supt. Rudolph of Ford Coun-
ty, Illinois, has written an interesting
letter to one of the patrons of his
county. We give below quotation
from his letter in the Illinois Educa-
tional Bulletin:
I'VE lost several good teachers last
year, who went into other counties
for higher wages Twenty-onc years
ago, received 5000 per month for
teaching school in certain district
in this county. In that same district
they are paying $500 per month this
year. Twenty-one years ago land in
that district was selling for from
$500 to 5000 per acre. This year
it is worth from $4,000 to 5000 per
acre. Twenty-one years ago ! paid
$500 per week for board, now the
teachers are paying, in many places in
the county, from 800 to $3.50 per
week for board. Twenty-one years
ago men were working on the farm
in that same district for from $500 to
$500 per month and board, this year
they are receiving from $500 to
$1,000 per month,
"ls it yet mystery to you why this
office cannot furnish your district with
a teacher at $1,000 per month"; who is
able to take charge of your school,
and raise the standard of the work SO
that the boys and girls Of your 7th and
Sth grades can go to the Final and
compete with those pupils who have
a good education, natural teaching
ability, and supplemented with ar
excellent normal training? Absolute.
