EDUCATION OFFERS
MANY WOMEN PLACES

from 26 in 1900 to 49 in 1912; Ne
braska, from 10 to AZ in the same per-
iod; North Dakota, from 10 to "a; Ok
lahoma, to IA. In only two states
is a decrease reported-Tennessee had
8 in 1900 and only in 1912, and Utah
has one less than decade ago
Together with the advancement of
women in the administrative branch
of education has come a demand for
women on local school boards, and
this demand has been recognized in
many communities. The following
cities of 100000 population or over, re-
port one or more women on the
school board: New York, Chicago,
Cleveland, San Francisco, Milwaukee,
Washington, Indianapolis, Rochester,
st. Paul, Denver, Columbus, Worches-
ter Grand Rapids, Cambridge, and
Fall River Numerous smaller mum
icipalities have adopted the idea.

ALSO TALKS OF LAWS

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 21.-Gover-
nor Wilson is here today for a final
session with his dentist. Tonight he
will visit New York, take in some OF
the sights, and attend the theatre with
some personal friends.
Honest business and honest men
have nothing to fear"
This is the assurance which Presl-
dent-elect Wilson gave today in a
lengthy statement explaining the en-
actment into law of the seven anti
trust bills which he signed yesterday.
"Those who would engage in the
heartless practice of running rivals
and filching from the pockets of the
people more than they ought reason
ably to demand" says the governor,

WASHINGTON Feb. 21.-There are
in this country 495 women to the Uni
ted States Bureau of Education
In some states women appear to
have almost a monopoly of the higher
positions in the public-school system.
Idaho has a woman state superln-
tendent and most of the counties
in the state, are directed education
ally by women. In Montana, where
there are thirty counties, only one
man is reported as holding the posi-
tion of county superintendent.
The increase in the number of wom-
en- county superintendent is most
conspicuous in the west, but is not
confined to that section. New York
reports AZ women district superin-
tendents," as against II school COM
in 1900. Other states
showing marked increases are: Iowa,

MaderO Fears Death.

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 21.-Francisco
Madero, the deposed president of Mex
leo sits today covering under heavy
guard in room in the national pal
ace. He is a nervous wreck.
Madero has looked in the face OF
death and the man for all his vaunted
bravery is afraid. He has learned
from his guards that il his fate Is
left to the decision of the new cabinet
it will probably decide that Madero and
Saurez must die under the fugitive"
law.
This is akin to the old Indian GUS
tom of running the gauntlet" The
condemned man must run before the
fire of fire of soldiers, and If he
escapes death he may go free.
This form of execution was used to
accomplish the death Of Madero's
brother, Gustavo Madero on Wednes-
day.

danger of execution.
Sonora Madero since her husband
was arrested and deposed from the
presidency, and especially since the
execution of Gustavo Madero, his
brother and chief adviser, has been
prostrated and under the care of
physicians. General Huerta's assur-
ance was given her out Of sympathy
with her condition.
Congress will meet tonight and con
slider the fate of the deposed president.
1t is generally expected that he will
not be formally executed, but that
II he is to be slain his death will be
met between here and Vera Cruz, and
that the troops having him in charge

he would build a road into that en-

one of the greatest in the history of

So extensive is the great area for
which the local firm is agent that any
kind of land, or any combina;
kinds, and suitable for any purpose
is embraced within it, while the vast
ness of the body of land permits of
exceptionally low prices. These range
from $3.50 per acre up to $3.50, ac-
cording to the kind and character of
the land and its nearness to one of
the good live towns scattered along
the automobile road which bisects this
great territory.
