iAsTic ABOUT NEW NIGHT
SCHOOL PLANS FOR CITY.

The plan to have night school IN
Ottumwa reach all needing schooling,
who. are unable to attend dur.
ing the day time, is the chief pur-
pose OF Principal F. M. Hamitt In pro-
noting the innovation for Ottumwans.
Mr.. Hammitt has shown much inter
est in the matter and in speaking Of
the proposed classes to be taught q
night, has the following to say:
The school OF our fathers taught
little besides the three R's-'readiIss.
ritin' and 'rithmetic. When we con-
slider that these three are the very
basis OF all further progress and at
the same time the things that ara
used constantly In every day life, We
can appreciate their wisdom. Il
These three will be emphasized In
the night school. Glasses will be
formed for all. II you want, to learn
to read, . class ID ready, for you. Il
you already know. how to read. but
want a better knowledge. . class IL
ready for you. The same 10 true OF
writing. II you want to become ee,-
ter penman. come. Your age is o
bar. Already men advanced In yea s
have signified their intention OF TAX
Ing this work.
In arithmetic three courses will be
offered. An elementary course for
those who are very deficient In num-
bers. An advanced course for those
who may desire better knowledge Of
arithmetic, and course in rapid cal
culation which will be q part OF the
bookkeeping work. There will also Ne
a class In algebra. To enter Ills
class the student will have TO show .
proficiency In arithuetic.

spector. If the story told by him Is
true the fact stands out big and black
that Father Schmidt and Dr. Muret
had plan whereby they would collect
insurance, am happy to state that
the physician natly declined to listen
to their proposal"
Inspector Faurot has learned, he
said, that the dentist one time in his
life figured as an insurance broker.
The inspector said that with the as.
sistance OF the Chicago police he was
trying to find il there was any con-
nection between Schmidt and Muret
and Johann Hoch,, the blue beard Of
Chicago" who was executed in 1905
for numbering one wife and accused
of killing several others. Schmidt was
in Chicago in 1905. Although may
call 1t nothing but a rumor, this coin
cidence," said Faurot, Il consider 1t
of sufficient importance to warrant q
thorough investigation"

TARIFF FIGHT TO END
DURING PRESENT WEEK,

Washington. D.. c., Sept. 21.-Dis.
puted points between the senate and
house in the tariff bill narrowed down
today to such chief features as the
income tax, the tax on cotton futures
and the general administrative pro.
visions. Democratic managers ex-
pected to send the conference report
to the house by Thursday.
President Wilson told callers today
that his conference with leaders led
him to believe all differences will be
smoothed out and he would sign the
bill this week i've got my pen sharp
ened," said the president.
Chairman Simmons Of the senate
finance committee and Senator Hoko
Smith assured President Wilson today
that they expect the bill to be- ready
for his signature before the end Of the
week The last moments OF the pas
sage OF tariff measure, however. al.
ways offer opportunity for. q rejection
of q conference report and further de-
alterations on points on which either
house may insist.
Democratic leaders from the south
are said to be agreed on the cotton
futures tax compromise proposed ny
Representative Lever and Endorsed by
Postmaster General Burleson and
Senator Hoke Smith. Instead of the
high Clarke tax, 1t proposed = smaller
tax on cotton for which the govern
ment has fixed standards. The cotton
exchange men, however, are protest
ing against It..
Chairman Simmons said he had not
discussed the cotton future tax with
the president, but indicated the senate
managers would not yield to he
house on their amendment.
With consideration of the income
tax section today. the senates amend
ment lowering the minimum exemp-
ton from $4,000 to $4,000. allowances
for dependent wives and children and
larger taxes on great incomes came
up for settlement.
<, Plan ship Subsidy.
Chairman Alexander OF the house
merchant marine, with Representative
Jones of Virginia, Small Of North Car
olina, and McGillicuddy OF Maine, ask
ell the president to favor an amend.
ment to the tariff bill giving a ave per
cent discount in duties to imports IN
vessels wholly built In the United
States, no matter where owned. A
house provision for Ave per cent dis.
count for goods In American owned
ships was struck out by the senate on
the protests Of many foreign govern
rnents that it was discrimination IN
violation OF, their treaties. The presi-
dent did not commit himself, but In.
dicated that if the new amendment did
not conflict with treaty rights ne
would favor It.
