EDUCATIONAL.
(BY c. W. MEISNEST.)

Up TO this date only sixty statements
of assessments of Teachers salaries
have been received by the county SUI
perintendent. The Gown treasurer
should receive the silnc statement
from the district board clerk and
with this statement the anlornt of
money withheld by the district board
should also be paid over to the town
treasurer. II no money was withheld,
that is if the teacher did not elect nor
was compelled to come under the law,
the report should be sent anyhow with
all parts properly filed out and proper
ly sworn to before a justice or notary
public.
The necessary blanks were sent to
the district clerks about two weeks
ago directly from Madison. A number
of clerks claimed they have not re-
ceived these blanks and have written
to the superintendent for same. |
have only a very few on hand so if
district clerks have not received any,
write Elizabeth Herfurth, Madison,
Wis.
All district clerks have now been
properly notified several times that
such report must be made, whether
your teacher comes under the law or
not. This report should have been
made between June 20 to June 30 If
you have not made your report yet, do
so at once, it probably will be accepted.
Whether you like the law or not,
whether this makes you extra work or
not does not matter. The law is on
the statutue books for us to obey and
if the report is not made it may mean
a loss of the state school nor ~ for
your district next year.
The superintendent must make his
report of this teachers retirement
fund betweensJuly and July 10. Give
this your attention at once and avoid
delay and probably trouble in the fu-
ture.

DIED

Mrs. Anna Whitman died at her
home on South 7th street Monday. In
her passing the band of German pio-
neer residents moves one notch nearer
to extinction. Mrs. Whitman was
born 81 years ago in Saxony and came
to America when young woman.
She was married in Chicago in 1S49
and came to Maniowoc with her hus-
band where the young couple at once
assumed place in the local colony of
cultured German folk. Here they re-
mained the balance of their lives,
rearing large family and enjoying
the universal respect of their fellow
residents. Her husband served in the
civil war at the head of local COM
pany. Mrs. Whitman was of scholarly
habits and we'll developed intellect
She possessed knack of versifying
that rose in instances to real poetry
Her death was caused by the general
breakdown that accompanies advanced
age. Her death is mourned by all who
knew her and particularly by the in
habitants who are old enough to recalllo-
cal conditions in the 60'sand 70's She is
survived by five children, Miss Ottilie,
Herman and Walter of this city, Dr.
A. r. Whitman of Merrill, and Ru-
dolph Whitman of Milwaukee, besides
grand children and great grand chill
dren.
The funeral was held Wednesday af-
ternoon. Interment was in Evergreen
cemetery.

John Schuette has lot of bees. No
one knows what use he makes of them
except to sting people. Lately hs gave
bunch of them to Reinhard6 Rahr,
who at once took them home and found
a cozy spot for the buzzing nuisances.
He purchased book on bee culture
and is busy bringing the bees up by
hand. When he is in among the bees,
book in hand, looking for the queen
he is the counterpart of that attic ora
tor from whose lips the bees drew hon
ey. Reinhardt will know all about
bees before the snow Hies and the bees
will know full as much about him.
Half his weight is bee stings now.

Fred Haukohl feels now as if he
could get to heaven even though he
were rich as he is small enough to
crawl through the eye of needle.
This is how he got the estimate Of
himself: He and few others were at
the depot on the morning of the
Fourth. Fred amused himself by
shooting off some fire crackers stand
ing the while on the depot platform
near which was hung canary bird.
A lady stepped out from the dining
room and looking severly at Fred said,
Little boy, don't want you to shoot
off fire crackers near that bird" Fred
felt for his little mustache and when
his friends assured him it couldn't be
seen at a distance, he went into the
waiting room and sat between two
girls and wanted to bet they couldn't
tell how old he is.

REBEL SYMPATH1ZERS.-- There is an
article going the rounds of the repub-
lican press that charges the "rebel
sympathizers" in the North are organ
izing secretly upon the following "trea-
sonabe" basis.
l. Opposition to the emancipation
and anti slavery policy of the admins
tration.
2. Opposition to its financial policy.
3. Opposition to its confscation poll
cy, its irregular and unconstitutional
action, and it's alleged corruptions.
If standing upon such basis, is any
indication of "rebel sympathy" we
claim the honor of pleading guilty.
We do not know that there is any Sc
cret organization founded upon the
principles named, but we do know that
there is public sentiment which APP
proves these principles in general, de-
voutly.
