The Yankton May Festival of
Music occurs Monday and Tues
day, May 9th and 28th. The
Yankton Choral Union, Professor
L. N. Daley of Yankton Conserva-
tory conducting, with the Mime
apolis Symphony Orchestra, Emil
Oberhoffer conducting, assisted by
able soloists, will give three grand
concerts, a choral program, a SYM
phony concert, and an operate
program. This festival has come
to be an annual event in Yankton,
the result of a notable example of
public spirit, the benefits of which
reach not only her own citizens
but the people of a large circle of
towns about, many of whom are
not slow to avail themselves of the
rare musical opportunities offered
on these occasions.
1t is not a money-making scheme
Last year citizens of Yankton
pledged the necessary guarantee
fund of $500, making up the de-
ticit of two or three hundred dollars
which occurred. Again this year
guarantors have given the enter
prise financial backing necessary
to bring forces together for a
brilliant festival season. This is a
sort of civic pride and loyalty
worthy of emulation.

AOuuty oCuOOl Lelter
Teachers examination for first
grade and state certificates, May
18th and 18th.
Pupils eighth grade examination
will be held at the various towns
May Esd and Oath.
Miss Anna Kreycik has just
closed a very successful term of
school in Wysuph district. The
pupils have made exceptionally
good progress and the patrons are
we'll pleased with her work.
The pupils of Koupal school
have made very marked progress
this year under the guidance of MI
Stanley Kramar. Two of the pu-
pills will be applicants for eighth
grade diplomas. The patrons of
this district have been very care
full the past few years to secure the
best teachers that they could &c
and their efforts are bearing fruit
In the way of students of whom
they may be proud. The board of
this district has offered a cash
prize of $500 each for the pupils
who succeed in completing the
eighth grade.
Any eighth grade pupils who
have not had the opportunity of
looking over some of the old lists
of eighth grade questions should
write the Office for them. There
are still some copies to be had.
A very fine exhibit of work was
given by the various departments
of the Tyndall schools, on Friday
afternoon, May Sd. Many patrons
of the school were present and
much appreciation of the exhibit
was expressed by them.
Miss Emylon Brown has given
such good satisfaction in Trumbo
district this year that the patrons
have unanimously requested her
to sign a contract for the coming
year at an increase of wages.
With the exception of two short
term schools which are located a
long way from Tyndall and which
closed very early, the county
superintendent has visited every
rural school in the county twice
during the school year. In the
past five and one-half years the
superintendent has made an aver.
age of over eleven visits to each
school in the county.
1t can be very truthfully said
that this has been the best wear in
the history of the rural schools of
this county. On an average the
pupils have been in charge of the
best corps of teachers they have
ever had, and they have made on
an average far more progress than
during any other year. Of course
some teachers have not given salts.
faction, a few have been Justly
criticised, but more have been IN.
Justly criticised. It would be folly
to expect universal satisfaction
That will never be attained unit
the Millennium has come, not til
selfish narrow-minded human ma.
ture is very radically changed.

DIE BY DROWNING

GOSHEN, n. Y, Nov. 2l.-That the
Countess Rosa Menschik Szabo. for
whose murder Attorney Burton w.

ing was present when DR.. Otto II.
Schultze, coroner's physician for New
York, performed the autopsy upon the
woman who met her death while boat
ing with Gibson on Greenwood lake on
July Is last.
He declared that the autopsy revealed
clearly that drowning was not the cause
of death.
my opinion is, he SAID. that death
was caused by asphyXia from strangu~
lation produced by force from without
on the upper part of the throat and
floor of the mouth"
Justice Tompkins questioned the
witness to bring out certain facts for
the Jury. Although Dr.. Hasking re-
his damaging testimony did not seem
to worry Gibson.
Dr. Schultze followed Dr. Hasling
and also testified that the cause Of the
countess death was strangulation and
not drowning. With the conclusion of
the testimony of DR.. SchuItze at 1906
o'clock, the state rested it's case.
