Mankato, Kan. June 2.-Superin-
tendent Frank w. Simmonds, who has
been at the head of the Mankato
schools the past twelve years, has re-
signed here. to accept the superintend-
ency of the Lewiston, Idaho, schools
at a salary of S2,40O. The people of
this community regret losing Profess
sor Simmonds and proposed raising
his salary several hundred dollars to
induce him to remain here, but the
Lewiston position is one of the best in
the northwest and is a well deserved
promotion. Professor Simmonds leaves
Immediately to plan the work for the
ensuing year in his new location.
Professor Simmonds has for several
years been a member of the state
board of education, has served as
president of the Northwest Kansas
Teachers association, an officer of the

enthusiastically urged by his friends to
become a candidate for state superin-

preferred a school superintendency to

Spontaneous Combustion From Oil

Chanute, Kan, June 2.-The hot
weather caused a fire here. Mrs. H. B.
Downing polished her floors in the
morning with a mop saturated with
parafin oil. She then stood the mop
on the porch, which was on the north
west corner of the dwelling away from

that part of the dwelling, spontaneous
combustion ensued. The fire was dis
covered and quenched after the roof

Mrs. Payne Asserts Her Most Dis
agreeable Task Is to Turn

Atlanta is being used as a dumping
ground for the paupers and helpless
invalids of other Southern cities and
towns. according to Mrs. j. w. Payne,
matron at the Terminal Station
When the people of other towns
get tired of keeping up their old and
helpless poor they buy them a ticket
and send them to Atlanta, often tell
ing them that they will be better
taken care of here" Mrs. Payne said.
often a woman with family of
small children will arrive in the city
penniless, and the woman will come
to me with the tale that she has been
told that there are charitable insti-
tutions here that will take care of
her children and help her to get
work
"Of course l have to tell the poor
people that we can not help them,
and one of the hardest tasks I have
is to tell them that they will have to
return to the town they came from"

FOSTER EXPLAINS
PRISON MEASURE
Its Intent Not to Abolish Chain
gangs, Author Says-WouId
Reform Convict System,

Senator A. H Foster, author of a
bill to reform the Georgia convict
system, issued a statement Saturday
explaining the object of the measure.
The phrase, abolish chaingangs,
has been misleading" Mr.. Foster said
an the first place. this measure
does not contemplate taking the con-
victs off the roads at ALL It's pur-
pose is to increase the efficiency of
convicts as road workers. 1t will
continue to allow counties to work
their convicts, and the phrase, 'abol-
ish chaingangs,' is true only in a
technical sense.
The bill provides for reforms and
changes I believe are necessary. They
are practical and efficient The pro-
vision to abolish stripes and chains
means a gradual abolition, to be car
ried only as far as is practical. The
proposal to separate youthful offend
ers from hardened criminals is one
the value of which I believe no one
will dispute.
lone Of the features Of the measure
I believe will commend itself to every
body will make possible the segre-
cation of whites and blacks, which
is now not always possible. Under
the present law, when a white man is
convicted for a misdemeanor in a
county which has only a negro chain
gang, the white man must work on
the gang with the negroes. This law
gives the Prison Commission the right
to move the white man in such a
case to another camp

Few Battlehags Are Carried by Wearers of
Grey, but Have Fine Spirit for Reunion.

Atlanta's delegation of 76 Confed
crate veterans, together with several
hundred from other points In the
State, this morning is nearing Get
tysburg, the scene of one of the Civil
Wars greatest battles and the place
selected for the great national re
union of the Blue and the Gray July
1, and 3, the semi amt
versary of the engagement.
General A. ]. West commissioner
from Georgia, is In command Of the
veterans. Through his efforts Geor-
gia has obtained a particularly ad-
vantageous camping ground facing
Confederate Avenue, the principal
street of the reunion city.
Few Battle Flags Carried.
Too precious to trust to the posi-
bllities of loss or damage, few Of the
old battle flags were in evidence when
the soldiers Of 81 boarded the train
for the North at II o'clock Saturday
forenoon. The veterans appreciated,
however, the spirit OF those in charge

mission for the carrying of the battle
trophies and started on their journey
with the certainty that they would
have one Of the most enjoyable expe-
riences Of their life in exchanging
"reminiscences with their one time en-
emies on the other side Of the Mason
and Dixon line.
II Atlanta's veterans are hoping to
find cooler weather in the North they
appear doomed to disappointment in
this particular. Reports are that
Gettysburg is sweltering in the heat
wave. but the weatherman has held
out hope that the temperature will
moderate by the time the actual cele-
bration begins
Old Confederate Coin Carried.
One OF the most interesting relics
belonging to the time Of the conflict
between the North and the South is
that taken to the reunion by General
West. II is a Confederate half dollar
said to be one of four coined before
the die was broken. Its value is set
at $4,000, and it was presented to
General West by David H. Keefer.

boarded the trains a dress parade was
given by 'Ne Third Battalion. The
next detachment comes July 10, when
