Attendance Not Keeping Up with
Growth of Population.
The statement has Just been made that
a smaller proportion of children go 10
the public schools now than went ten
years ago. At the same time the enroll
ment of students in colleges has IN
creased. The theory is that the high cost
of living takes the poorer children from
the public schools and puts them to work.
The pinch Is not felt by the well to do,
who in increasing numbers send their
young folks 10 institutions Of higher
learning.
The public school population is reck-
oned on persons of the ages from FIVE
TO eighteen years. According 10 the

Accuse the Police of Brutality In
Dealing With the Striking
Garment Workers.

Chicago, Nov. 2.-Mounted police
charged threatening mobs of striking
garment workers and made numerous
arrests in three sections of Chicago,
only to be dumbfounded when met by
Obdurate groups of well known society
women.
1t was a new experience for the
police and plainly confused them. A
score of these women, champions of
the garment workers, who faced the
days riOting, were taken into custody.
They were Immediately released, how
ever, when their identity became
known to the police. One of them
was injured when struck by police
mans club, but her name did not be-
come known, as she was hurriedly
placed in an automobile and taken to
her home Most of the women OF
prominence involved in the demOnstra-
tions we're garbed as working girls
and for this reason the police could
not distinguish them from strikers
until after arrests had been made.
Riotous and spectacular scenes de-
veIoped in the down town district, on
the North Side and on the West Side.
More than 500 men and women en-
gagged in the down town demOnstra-
ton, which was broken up by the po-
lice after considerable trouble. More
than 1000 took part in one of several
incfpient riots on the West Side. In
each instance women headed the
crowds of strikers and their friends.

doing absolutely nothing beyond the
law" said Miss Ellen Starr, one of
the clubwomen who had become
strike picket. '"The only persons who
were violating the law were the po-
licemen, who treated us roughly and
hurt dreadfully with their clubs some
of the poor boys we were leading
peacefully past the shops. If there
had been a real riot this morning
and it would not have taken much tC

RANGERS BLAME RAILROAD
Official Inquiry Into Recent Destruc.
tive Forest Fires.

General C. c. Andrews of the state
forestry board has received a compre-
hensive report from George S. Chaplin
and Frank Curtis of Roosevelt, two
forest rangers whom the board Or
dered to investigate the forest fires
which destroyed Baudette and Spooner
and devastated the surrounding coun-
try.
The report places the blame for the
fires on the Canadian Northern rail
road and the carelessness of many
locomotive engineers. 1t says that
the country through which the fires
travelled is wild and sparsely settled;
that the fires in many places did not
entirely destroy the trees, merely
scOrching them enough to kill them.
These trees will fall this winter, ac-
cOrding to the rangers, and make con-
ditions as dangerous next year as they
were this if the debris is not cleaned
up. The dry weather of the summer
also is responsible to a great extent
for the fires, ''for at no time" accord
ing to the report, was there water
enough to put out the fires in the peat
bOgs, which were burning frequently
to depth of two feet"
