Elgin, Scotland Aug. 2e.-The Brit

an attack Thursday afternoon in which
his chivalry restrained him from ade-
quately defending himself. While he
was golfng with his daughter on the

gettes, who had quietly come up to
the green, sprang at Mr.. Asquith sud

grabbed him by the clothing and
dragged him some distance over the

CHARGED With RECEIVING BRIBE

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 2e.-Formal rec
ognition of Lieut.. Gov. Martin H. Glynn
as Acting Governor of New York, pend !
ing the issue of the impeachment pro-
ceedings against Gov Sulzer, was
completed by the Legislature Thurs
day, when the senate accepted three
messages sent in by Mr.. Glynn. The
Legislature later adjourned to Sept
II, the day before the Sulzer impeach
ment court convenes.
The days proceedings in both
houses were characterized by sharp
denunciation of Gov. Suffers close
friend Judge Lynn j. Arnold, who is
seeking to procure indictments for
felony against Senator Robert F. Wag-
ner, majority leader; Senator James ].
Frawley, chairman of the committee
which laid the foundations for the
impeachment, and Speaker A. E.
Smith and Majority Leader Aaron J..
Levy of the Assembly.
Levy was charged by Judge Arnold,
through Arnold's newspaper, with re-
ceiving a $4,000 bribe from former
State Engineer Skene for influencing
legislation. Senator Frawley is charg-
ed with bribery and other offenses,
while Senator Wagner and Speaker
Smith were accused of perjury in
falsely certifying to a quorum. The
men impugned declared their intention
of seeking redress through civil and
criminal actions
The plans of Democratic leaders to
put through at Thursdays session the
several financial measures recommend
ed by Acting Gov Glynn failed through
inability to scrape together the three
fifths attendance of each house neces-
arys to pass appropriation bills.
Senator Frawley's remarAs on the
floor, in answer to the Arnold charges
against him, were construed as a
threat to chastise his accuser.
Senator Frawley's voice trembled
with feeling as he arose to make his
statement respecting the criminal al
legations made against him.
81 have listened for six weeks to the
statement, every twenty-four hours:

Sherbrooke, Aug. 29.-Harry X.
Thaws lawyers, successful so far in
keeping their client in Jail, safe from
the immigration authorities, rejoiced
last night when they received word
from Quebec that the trip of William
Travers Jerome to see Sir Lomer
Gouin, Provincial Premier and Attor-
ney-general, had been in vain.
Mr.. Jerome, leader of the New York
forces seeking Thaw's return to Mat
teawan, accompanied by Deputy At
torney general Franklin Kennedy, left
here Wednesday night hoping to lay
before the Premier facts that would
persuade him to sweep aside the COM
mitment on which Thaw is held in
Sherbrooke and place him in the hands
of the immigration authorities. Pre-
sumably Mr. Jerome did not know
that the Premier was to leave Quebec
for New York to join those paying
tribute to Lord Haldane, who is to ar
rive there from England today
Similarly this fact was not known to
Louis M St. Laurent, engaged by
Thaw to defend Gentleman Roger"
Thompson, the chauffer Although
concerning himself chiefly with the
Thompson case, Mr. st. Laurent is a
resident of Quebec, a Liberal and a
supporter of the Premier, and he was
dispatched thither. it was understood,
to use whatever influence he could
bring to bear against the Premier's
taking any action in the Thaw case at
this time. He will return here today
to defend Thompson when the latter is
arraigned before District Magistrate
Mulvana on a charge of aiding an un-
desirable to cross the border. If
Thompson can prove he is British
subject, he cannot be deported, but he
can be fined a maximum sum of $500
/ or imprisoned for three months.
Thompson said last night that he
would plead not guilty and absolutely
would not "saueaP' as to the details of
| Thaw's delivery from Matteawan.
1t doubtless will be necessary for
the prosecution to prove Thaw insane
before they can establish that he is an
undesirable alien, and thus sustain the
charge against Thompson. If this is
the case, the Thompson trial may go
over until alienists can examine Stan
ford Whites Slayer.
There was renewed talk of the pos
sibility of Thaw being admitted to
bail pending the long wait fortrial be
fore the Kings bench in October, the
length OF time 1t appears he will be
held. One of Thaw's counsel said last
night that Thaw's admission to bail be
would regard as an extremely unwise
move.
'In my opinion" he added, "the i'm
migration authorities then could take
him in charge, and, although they coult
not deport him, in view of his being
bound by a bond to appear In court
they might be able to embarrass us
For the present, Mr.. Thaw will remain
in jail; perhaps later we will hit on I
way to get him out in safety"

Graded schools maintaining two years
high school work receive s., 100; con-
soIidated schools 81, 800 for four-de-
partment school, ST 900 for a three

How it is Apportioned
OF the special aid to high, industrial

per cent of the taxes for this aid are
raised in Ramsey and Hennepin coun-
ties the former gets but $4,000 and
the latter s19,35O. This is because
these counties have but few of the

LEGISLATURE RAISED THEFUND
Manner of Distribution Explained

In Ensuing Article

{. b
It costs the State of Minnesota ap-
proximately 81 annually for each child
attending the public schools of the
state.
Recently the October distribution
of the current school fund amounting
to 81, 450, 794-30 was made by Charles
G. Schulz, superintendent of education.
This was payable October II.
Additional Appropriation
In addition, the last Legislature ap-
propriated $763, 972.68 as state aid for
high schools, graded and industrial
schools. Soon there will be another
distribution of something more than
100000 to rural and consolidated
schools. When this is completed the
total will exceed the $3,0O0,O00 mark
sufficiently to make approximately 81
paid out for each Of the 433 900 school
children in the state.
The current school fund is derived
from the permanent school fund in
terest-bearing securities and is dis
tributed on per capita basis, $3.50
for each pupil. Last year it amounted
to 1881, 5000 and next year it is
expected that $1,6OO,OOO will be avail
able. Because of the rapid growth of
the permanent school fund, derived
from iron mine royalties and the sale
of state land, the interest will reach
the $s,0OO,OOO mark by 1850.
Special Aids Voted
The Legislature also each year
makes appropriations for special state
aid derived from direct taxation. The
sum of $763,972.68 available this year
is apportioned as follows:
For departments in agriculture,
economics and manual train
ing DZ,CuU
For departments in agriculture
and either home economics or
manual training ......... 1900
For training department for ru-
raj teachers, applicable only
to high schools ............ 1000
The last Legislature also increased
the annual aid to high schools from
$1,750 to $1,000 and for graded
schools from 5000 to $3.50. This in
cerase, however, does not apply to the
present school year, but will be includ-

NIAGARA HOLDS A CAPTIVE
Moving Picture Employe Saved From
Death by Daring
Swimmer

Niagara Falls, Oct 24.-After being
in the grasp of the whirlpool of Ma
CARA Falls in small motor boat for
more than four hours, Peter W. Lam
geard of Detroit was rescued Thurs
day night in an exhausted condition.
Langeard made trip through the
whirlpool rapids from the Maid of the
Mist landing on the Canadian side to
the Whirlpool to furnish subject for
a moving picture film. The trip had
been made several times before with
out mishap.
Nayigates Rapids Safely
Langeard navigated the rapids safe
iy, but when he swung into the Whirl-
pool, driftwood clogged the propeller
of his boat and he was powerless to
bring the craft out of the vortex.
For nearly three hours he endeavored
to clear the propeller by leaning over
the stern of the boat. To the hundreds
that lined the shores at dusk it seemed
that Langeard must lose his fight.
When darkness closed in over the gorge
headlights were taken from trolley cars
along the Canadian side and in their
glare the crowds watched Langeard's
fight for life.
Swims Out with Life Line
Shortly before o'clock, Fred Pres
ton of Niagara Falls, Ont, volunteered
to swim out with life line attached to
his waist. Langeard, exhausted, lay
tstill in the bottom Of the boat, which
bobbed around in the vortex like a
cork.
The crowd, numbering nearly 1000
lcheered when Preston struck out for
the rescue. He was afraid to climb
into the craft, half filled with water
and, clinging to the side of the boat,
called to rescuers to pull the boat
ashore. Preston was given great
ovation by the crowd.
