The PUBLIC SCHOOL

Chas. Auger entered high school on
Monday.
The Central City high school has
daily attendance of seventy-two stu
dents, the enrolment this year pass
ing all previous records.
For the first time probably in the
history of the two schools, the Cen
trail City high school has larger en-
rollment and a larger graduating
class than the Idaho Springs high
school.
A great many visitors attended the
Christmas exercises in the grade
schools and the literary program in
the high school on the day the
schools closed for the holidays. The
pupils in the Clark building always
make a great day of the Friday be-
fore Christmas. The rooms were nice
ly decorated, Christmas trees were
set up, programs were given, and
each student was remembered with
= little school-made gift. In the high
.hool the Alpha Zeta literary society
ave an excellent program. The Girls
chorus appeared for the first time
and was given an ovation. We trust
they will soon appear again.
The first half OF the school year

Monday, January cath, several new
studies will be introduced in the
eighth grade and in the high school.

perfume time for the entrance of
new students. A student can enter
the high school on January gath, be
ginning all his work with new
classes, and should be able to secure
q credit of half year on the high
school course A post card addressed
10 Mr.. Momyer will bring full infor-
nation concerning the new studies,
and such other information as may
be desired by students contemplating
enrolment in the high school at this
time. The normal course will be con
tinued during the second term. PLY
,siology and American history have
been offered during the first half OF
tine year These will be succeeded
by courses in physiology. CONNER

from the Eureka, which was literally

up and the gold values placed in bull

John Smock, manager of the Ready
Cash mine, in Prosser sulch, has let
a contract to Milovwich & Company
to sink the shaft on the property a
distance of 100 feet. Work on the con-
tract was started Monday.
Gilpin observer., 1910-01-06

The Milton, about mile and
a half below Black Hawk, which
made such sensational silver strike
a few weeks ago, still has the old
force occupied in development work.
The spring will see a larger force
employed in taking out ore.
Gilpin observer., 1910-01-06

Arvada has strong team this year
and on their own floor will probably
expect to defeat Central as badly as
they did last year, the score last
year being 10 to 10 for the boys and
80 to for the girls.
The school prophet has an entire
ly different score arranged for this
game. but refuses to give it out be-
fore Saturday. Suffice it to say he
expects the Central boys to win and
the girls to play a close game.

CRIPPLE WALKS
BEFORE DY|Ns
Girl Regains Use Of Limbs
Before Expiring.

White Haven, Nd, April 5.-Miss
Anna Causey, youngest daughter OF
Mr. and Mrs. Josiah w. Causey, OF
near this town, died suddenly, at the
home of her parents of heart failure,
superinduced by curvature OF the
spine, aged sixteen years.
Miss Causey had been afflicted With
spinal trouble since early childhood
and had not walked step since she
was six years old until the day pre-
ceding her death when, it is said, she
surprised everyone by suddenly jump
ing to her feet and walking around the
room just as any child with good use
of its limbs would do. For nearly ten
years the afflicted girl had moved
about the room by crawling. She had
never been able to sit up, except for
a few minutes at time since she had
her first illness, and was q dwarf ply
sically
Her mentality appeared abnormally
strong. Her familiarity with the Bible
was without an equal in this section
and possibly in the county, people
looking upon her as being modern
St. Peter in the interpretation OF me
Scriptures Matters of national i'm
portance were equally as familiar to
her. and she would discuss them and
dissect them like a statesman.

PUT UP $4,000 TO
KILL GRADY BILL
New York Insurance Probe E1'
poses Recent Transaction.

New York April 5.-Five thousand
dollars was spent in 1909 by the New
York Board of Fire Underwriters to
crush the so-called 'anti-compact" bill
introduced in the state senate by Sen
ator Thomas F. Grady. the Tammany
legislator The late George P. Sheldon
received the money from the board
and distributed it as he saw fit.
Whom he paid for services was not
brought out in the testimony. 1t was
developed. however, that in addition
to the $4,000 used to defeat the Grady
measure, the board spent $500 during
the same session to kill the liquida-
ton bill. which gave power to the
superintendent of insurance, under
certain conditions. to take possession
of and liquidate insurance companies.
How it was distributed could not be
learned.
E. H. A. Correa. vice president OF
the Home Insurance company, was the
witness through whom Superintendent
Hotchkiss brought out the testimony
concerning the Grady measure. He
tried hard to show that William H.
Buckley the lobbyist. had received the
$4,000 or a part of it from Sheldon, but
was unable to do SO.
But he did establish that after the
legislature adjourned Buckley went to
Europe and returned on Aug. 30. The
next day Sheldon issued hurry call
for a meeting of the laws and legisla-
ton committee of the underwriters
board Inside of two hours after he
called the committee the meeting was
held and Sheldon's bill for $4,000 for
legal services, clerical hire and other
expenses" was approved The next
day Sheldon put the bill through the
finance committee of the board.

The "Arahian NIGHTS"

The collection of tales called the
Thousand and One Nights" or the
arabian Nights" is Of unknown date
and authorship. 1t was first made
known in Europe about the end of the
seventeenth century by Antoine Gal
land. who was employed by Colbert to
collect manuscripts in the east The
copy of the Arabic manuscript brought
by Galland from Syria contained a
marginal note dated 1854, and from in
ternal evidence the middle OF the If
teenth century has been liked upon as
the probable period Of the composition
Of the work. Some Of the tales were
evidently borrowed by the writer from
other authors, and Won Hammer iden-
titles at least the plot and some Of the
stories of the Arabian Nights with
an earlier collection in Persian called

ApriI Eoolino,

The origin of the custom OF April
fooling cannot be traced with any de-
gree Of certainty. In the literature OF
the last century there are found many
references to it, and yet Beyond that
it is scarcely possible to go. One sug-
gestion is that the custom Of playing
tricks on the first day of April was de-
rived from some ancient pagan Gus
tom, such as the Hull festival among
the Hindoos or the Roman feast Of the
fools. One fact. however, we do know,
and that is that the practice prevails
in many countries under various
names which would seem to indicate
that it dates away back to the early
history Of the race.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Republican Convention Likely to CVn

Indianapolis, April 5.-If the friends
Of Senator Albert J. Beveridge have
their way in the Republican conven-
ton which will name a state ticket
no mention will be made in the plat
form of the Payne-Aldrich tariff law
or of the county local option law.
These questions have caused party
leaders deep concern during the last
several days.
In view of the fact that Senator
Beverage voted against the tariff
measure his trends are determined
that the convention shall not indorse
it. While there is a considerable SEN
timent among the delegates for an in
dorsement of the tariff law. there was
a disposition on the part of the stand
pat Republicans not to make light
on the floor of the convention against
the report of the committee on reso'
buttons, which probably will contain
no mention of the measure.
