scarcity of rural school teachers it
begins to look as though winter terms

have to be deferred in opening. AL
though the positions pay from $45
to $50 per month they are going
begging and at the present time there
are a dozen vacancies for schools that
are due to begin the first Monday in
December.

The pursuit Of a solution for the prob
lom Of how to be happy though mar
ried' continues to be prosecuted by
serious.minded students OF human vel
fare. eager to win a crown Of immor-
tai glory.
Mery once in SO often" comes the
announcement that somebody has
found the long-sought t.rmula and the
rules for obtaining the desired result
are put forth with becoming solemn
ity The latest investigator in this
fruitful field of research is DR.. Sarah
N. Merrick, widow, Of Cambridge,
Mass, who, we are assured, has made
a lifelong study Of husbands and
wives and who has reached the con
elusion that common sense is the most
essential factor in happy marriage,
Common sense being the key that
unlocks the combination, this estim-
able lady proceeds to deduce the rules
for its operation To husbands she
gives the following suggestions.
When your wife is gowned becom
ingly, tell her so.
When she waits dinner until late foi

OF AN OFFICER
NEGRO ARRESTED YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON Is BELIEVED TO BE
ONE WHO ASSAULTED OFFICER
YNIEsTRA SEVERAL MONTHS
AGO.

When Officers Hall and Harrington,
OF the police department, arrested John
Thomas, negro, yesterday afternoon
they probably made a catch in which
the entire police department Is inter-
ested, as II is believed that he is the
negro who assaulted Officer j. G.
Yniestra several months ago. biting
him 80 seriously about the face that
for several weeks little hope for his
recovery was entertained. While 1t is
practically impossible for the officer to
positively Identify his assailant on ac-
count Of the incident having occurred
in the dark, officer Yniestra is said to
have been almost positive that this
was the negro@when he saw him at the
police station yesterday afternoon.
Up to late hour last night the Of
ficers had not told the negro that he
was suspected, and no statement from
him had been obtained.
Toe charge on which the officers
took him into custody yesterday after
noon was beating his wife. She COM
planned to the officers. who went to the
house, one going to the front door and
one to the back and the negro is said
to ~have run right into officer Halls
arms. As soon as he was taken to
the station Officer YnieStra was Of the
opinion that he was the negro who
assaulted him. but did not mention
this before Thomas.

Senator Root has been quoted as as
surfing the Porto Ricans that he favors
the establishment of Porto Rico as an
independent republic under the protec-
ton Of the United States. He Believes
that this rather that statehood. is Porto
Rico's ultimate destiny.
Similarly he feels that Hawaii should
be restored to a status Of Independence.
With those two island possessions I'M
der their own government and undsr
American protection they would nc
need to worry about armies and navie' !.
as the United States would stand guard
over them. and prevent them from be-
ing heckled or gobbled by European
power.
Mr.. Root frankly states his opposition
to the admission of Porto Ricans 10
United States citizenship. though this
was promised in the treaty which made
Porto Rico an American possession. and
has since been part Of Republican
national platforms.
The suggestion of Mr.. Root is surely
worth consideration. 1t is said that IL
has met with almost universal favor In
Porto Rico, where the people would pre-
fer absolute self government to the
privilege Of full American citizenship.
Besides, they seem to see no prospect
of citizenship, and may possibly believe
the scheme Of independence more easy
