GRAND JURY IS STILL OUT
Only Two Indictments Announced Yet,
Both of Which Are Against the
Same Man,

Contrary to all expectations. the
Polk county grand jury had not re-
ported at a late hour this afternoon.
Inc jury met Monday to investigate
several cases and it was expected that
they would adjourn yesterday, but it
was impossible for them to do so. Last
night County Attorney Hagen an
nounced that they would be ready to
report early this morning, but, judg-
ing from indications, something else
OF importance has come up, as the
jury was investigating some case this
afternoon.
Only two indictments. both of which
are against the same man. have been
announced. They are forgery in the
second and third degrees and were re-
turned against Harry Collins, who
was arrested at Crookston.
Inc jury spent some little time in
v~estigating a Dugdale blind pig case,
out. according to announcement made
last nlght, 1t resulted in nothing. Sew
erai witnesses were examined, but they
were unable to give the jury any con-
elusive proof.
East Grand Forks escapes this year
without a criminal case for the June
term of court. One man was bound
oVer from this city during May. but he
pleaded guilty shortly after and was
gwen a suspended sentence. Unless
the jury Is investigating some East
Grand Forks case this afternoon, this
WIZ ne n first time in a number of
years That a local case has not been
before the june grand jury.
n Jury is inspecting the court
house and is waiting for Witnesses
from FERTILE in blind pig case.

JOHNSON WILL NOT
RETURN TO THE
SCHOOLS
City Superintendent Has Ac-
cepted Similar Position at
Rochester, Mimi.

H. A. Johnson, who has been SUI
p%erintendent of the East Grand Forks
schools for the past three years, has
been elected superintendent Of the
Rochester, Mimi, schools and will
take up his duties in hat city some
time during August. His election as
head of the Rochester schools came
as a distinct surprise to the local
board of education and residents of
the city. AS it was not known that he
was even thinking of the position.
There a been a vacancy at Ro-
chester for evera months, and Mr..
Johnson has been under consideration
for the position for some time. Last
week he visited Rochester and con-
ferred with the members of the board.
Yesterday he was notified by tele-
graph that he had beer elected.
The Rochester superintendency
comes as a big promotion for Mr..
Johnson. The city has a population Of
about 5000 permanent residents, and
has six fine school buildings. The
Central high school building was re-
Gently constructed and is one of the
best structures of it's kind in the state.
Aside from this building. they have
five ward schools. The equipment is
of the very best and is up-to-date and
complete in every way.
Mr.. johnson has been superintend-
ent of the local schools for three
years and during that time has done
much to build up the institution. Dur
ing his superintendency. the domestic
science and manual training depart
ments We're added, the Lincoln school
building was constructed and several
other important changes We're made.
The local school board has had no
time to do anything in regard to nam
ing a successor to Mr.. Johnson, but
this work will be taken up at once.

ON VAUDEVILLE CIRCUIT
Formcr Grand Forks Bow and Girl
Have Been Successful in Musi.
cal Stunt on Stage.

Paul Russell Stone and Miss Fannie
stone. both we'll known former resi-
dents of Grand Forks. and who have
resided in st. Paul for some time, have
signed contracts with the Orpheum
circuit and will be with that big or
ganization during the coming year.
Ihsy have Just returned to their home
IN st. Paul from Kansas City. Mo-, and
Des Moines. Iowa, where they were
very successful.
Mr.. and Miss Stone made their
home in the east for some time, al
though Mr.. and Mrs. II. A. Stone, their
parents. are and have been residents
OF st. Paul since moving from Grand
Forks. In his boyhood days. Paul
Stone won an enviable reputation as a
boy soloist in st. Michael's church
choir. The Stones were spending the
winter at home in st. Paul last year
and 1t happened that on account Of
snowbound trains several Of the head
line acts were delayed at THE local
st. Paul and Minneapolis Orpheum
theaters. and as the managers found
themselves decidedly short of talent
to fill up the matinee bills, got Paul
and his sister on the phone and asked
them if they wouldn't like to arrang
an impromptu act and fill in.
AS neither of them had eve appea
ed on the vaudeville stage before, they
had a hard time making up their
minds as to whether to make the at
tempt or not; they finally did. how
ever, and with the aid of a few songs
and a piano, managed to cor a very
decided hit with the audiences in both
cities. The managers then sent in the
reports Of the showing they made to
he booking department of the Orphe-
UNI circuit in New York, and contracts
have now been issued, covering a COM
plete tour of the Orpheum circuit, I'M
der the management of Martin Beck.
They cave for Spokane, WASH. late
in June, where they will appear on
the opening bill. Other principal
a towns are to follow. returning to
play Twin City engagements in the
fall. They are known to the stage as
Paul and Marmion Stone, in "a Bit of
Musical Comedy in a Vaudeville Way"
Both young people attended the
Central and Belmont schools in this
city. Their father was for a number

THE SCANDINAVIAN
LANGuAGUE IN

Board Of Education Discus
ses ACCESSIBILITY of Teach
ing the Language.

The question of adding the teaching
or the Scandinavian language to the
regular high school curriculum. as an
elective subject. came up for a lengthy
discussion at the regular meeting Of
the board Of education last night. The
question was finally referred to the
committee on teachers and schools. to
the next meeting of the board. Supt.
). Nelson Kelly, Samuel Torgerson and
Prof. L.. r. BirdZell were appointed to
act with this committee.
me question was brought up last
night by the presentation of a petition.
signed by an unusually large number
OF he scandinavians of the city. Rev.
II. j. Glenn. who has been assistant
pastor of Zion Lutheran church for
the board, speaking in favor of the
movement.
1T was pointed out that 25 per cent
of the pupils in the grades and 90
per cent of the high school students
in Grand Forks are of Scandinavian
descent. These figures We're obtained
as a result of a QUESTIONABLE sent out a
short time by Supt. Kelly, when
each tudent was asked to give his
nationality.
The board members are Of the opin-
ion that the question is of such impor-
lance h a it deserves careful consid-
GRAFTON and investigation, and for this
reason definite action was postponed
until the committee could investigate
thoroughly. They are also Of the opin-
ion h Il il is the practical thing to
d the Scandinavian language to he
list, as so many of the pupils of the
ely are of that descent.
Three members Of the public library
boar were also named at the meeting.
a.. 5. Burrows, Mrs. Jos. Kennedy and
Mrs. c. c. Gowran being re-appointed
for terms of two years.

A short time after Lent.

Stood on the White House portico,
His form draped in a shroud.
While to the northern breezes
He walled forth in accents loud:
They've knitted me in Missouri. and they've Gu, me up

In classic Indiana they have tra,nplcd on my name;
With wild neurotic frenzy
They have turned me down in Pennsy
In a most outrageous and unfeeling way;
Up in staunch and true Wisconsin where 1 thought I
had a look.
They mistook me. for they shook me and then handed
me the hook;
Though in faithful old Kentucky.

It's A rocky road to nomination day.
His voice was full Of pleading,
His eyes we're full of tears;
But stony hearts. unloading,
Replied with iibes and jeers;
His tears fell fast and faster.
Alas they fell in vain.
While from the great mans stricken soul
Rang forth this wild refrain:
They piifered Oklahoma, and they knocked me in
Vermont;
My erring child. New Mexico. has faced me with q
taunt:
Wild and wooly North Dakota
Didn't pony up it's quota.
And I don't know what to think of Io-way;
Though I've always done the right thing by the Grand
Old Party boys,
They hooted me and booted me in dear old illinois,:
oh, my aching heart is breaking.
What a cold and sad awakening!
It's a rocky road to nomination DAY.
