over the school census which resulted
from the investigation of the inspect
ors sent here from the Department of

alleged. in dispatch from this city

Prof. G. w. Chapman with the affair,
the following affidavit signed by Mrs.
Lizzie Clark, the authorized census
taker, has been presented:
"The affiant states that she was
born and raised in Bourbon county f;
that she has been census taker in the
city of Paris for about ten years; that
when Prof. Geo. w. Chapman becam e
superintendent. he always rold her to
do her duty care fully and we'll, and re-
minded her that she would have to
swear to her report: that she should
take all the children OF. school age en-
| titled to be taken. for we wanted all
| that belonged to US. but no more that
she should take all that moved into the
city during the month of April, if they
had not been taken that year else
where that every time Prof. CHAPMAN
spoke to her about the census he made
the impression that he desired her to
do only what was right ;sthat she never
had at any time presented the census
list to him. nor had he ever examined
it unless he did so after she turned 1T
into the County Superintendent s
office; that she never considered that
Prof. Chapman had any authority over
her in taking the school census, and
that he never tried to exercise any au
thority that what he said to her was
merely advisory that in all the years
she has taken the census she has taken
all who moved into the city during the
month of April, unless they had been
previously. lasted; that such hasebeen
her understanding of the law. and that
she holds the same opinion of the law
today.

the mound for the locals but could
not hold the league leaders. This
was due to the excessive work which
he has been called upon to perform
and when it became apparent that the
game was lost, he made only slight
effort. Cralner for the visitors was a.
his best and kept his hits well scatter

Damage by Lightning in Cities.

Investigations made over Europe
seem to justify the belief that the dam.
age by lightning, in the cities particu.
larly, has decreased to very marked
degree in recent years, and it is ex.
planned by the presence of electric
wires, which act as a protection in di.
verting the electric bolts. AS the
wires are put underground, it is ex-
pected that there will be noticed a
great increase in the amount of dam.
age by lightning and return will be
generally made to the use of lightning
rods.

N There Is young girl who
HHI passes my study window every
\ morning on her way to work
whom 1t Is always a pleasure
to look upon. At first l thought that
she was exceptionally we'll dressed,
but soon l realized that there was
nothing particularly expensive or in
any way remarkable about her
clothes. The charm was simply the
way she put them on. In other words
she was the most accurately dressed

What does that mean?
It means several things.
1t means that her neckwear and her
belt are always perfectly neat and
properly adjusted.
1t means that her hair Is always
accurately dressed. And by accurately
Il do not mean that II Is either spanked

1t means that her hat IL always on al

1t means that her shoes are never
run down at the heels and are properly
polished.
It means that she never appears In
the half soiled white gloves that even
well dressed women allow themselves
1t means that her skirt always hangs

It means that her gowns. no matter
how simple and inexpensive. are al
ways fresh and spotless.
It means that she always wears
clothes that are appropriate for the

her dress with a lot OF chains and

fair knowledge Of the Bible is an ig-
noramus, and Is disadvantaged accord

These are strong words, and yet as a
matter of fact, the average young man
and young woman In our high schools
and colleges has very imperfect
knowledge OF this wonderful book;
book Is appalling And in the exami-
nation of pupils ntheir knowledge Of
the Bible, some very amusing answers
are given. which would seem more
amusing If it were not really pathetic.
The writer once asked Senator Bor-
ah, who Is known to be one of the
strongest and most forceful speakers
in our land, how he attained such a
terse, dignified and forceful style of
speech, and he replied that he had
| made an extended study OF the Bible
for the purpose of enriching his vo-
cabulary and gaining the style of those
digrified Anglo-Sax words OF our
English Bible.
| Can we do anything in Idaho to help
to knowledge Of the Bible on the
part of the pupils In our public
schools? Many prominent educators in
| our land favor course of Bible
study in our high schools. in which
every boy and girl shall be compelled
to pass an examination before receiv-
| ing a certificate OF graduation. In
North Dakota the high school board
has selected and adopted brief
course of Bible study, and every high
school student who duly passes an ex
lamination, based on the select course,
lis given a half credit on his high
school course. ] want to commend the
action Of the North Dakota board to
the careful thought of the leaders Of
our educational processes in Idaho.
Have we not lost much In SO rigidly
excluding the Bible from our public
schools? Would there not be dis
tinct gain II the pupils should come in
contact with the history and life stor-
les of the great characters of the BIZ
BILE, should become familiar with the
simple beauty and grandeur of it's

China is Scene of .Anti-RepubIican
Agitation.

Lanchowfu, Kansu Province
China.-If China loses Mongolia,
either as result of the independence
movement there or of a Russian
grab, it will inevitably also lose Chi
nese Turkestan, Sinkiang or the new
dominion, as the dependency is vari-
ously known. This is the warning
sent to President Yuan Shi Kai by
the governor of Chinese Turkestan.
For some time an anti-republican
agitation has been going on through
out the dependency.
Sinkiang is about eleven times the
size of New York state and has
100000 population. Much of it
mas heretofore been regarded as des-
ert but the Chinese have been home
steading it from the southeast and
reclaiming it through irrigation un-
til the new government has come to
look toward it as a relief for over
population in China.
