Record Held in Cleveland.

1t seems that the inlet cribs in Lake
Erie for the water supply of Cleve-;
land are overrun with flies. The crib
farthest out in the lake is six miles
from shore. Last summer Professor
Hodge, being in Cleveland. was asked
to go out to the cribs and look the
situation over. He went, and as stat.
ed, found all the cribs supporting a.
numerous fly population of blue bot
ties, stable flies. ad Musca domestica.
The six-mile inlet was as bad as any
of the others. There was nothing on
the cribs for the flies to feed upon,
and careful inquiry showed that
transportation by boat was extremely
improbable. The professor was led to
the conclusion, therefore. that the flies,
were blown out over the six-mila
stretch Of water by the strong south
winds.
If they are transported this distance
over water, the possible extent of,
their travel ashore must be very con-,
siderable. Assuming a steady and
strong wind blowing in the same di-
rection for some time, the chance of
flies from an infected region being
blown in successive flights ten, fifteens
or even Twenty-Five miles, deserves at
least consideration.

the SChOOl rooms are crowded., that
some Of the teachers have more pupils
than they can properly are for and
that while assistants are supplied in
some cases it necesSitates the INSTRUCT
ton of some of the backward pupils
in the halls Of the school buildings,
notably at the Lincoln and LongfelIow
schools.
The overcrowding of the school
rooms works a hardship on the back
ward pupils who fail to comprehend
the instruction given by the teacher
and the number Of pupils renders it
impossible for the teachers to give the
necessary personal help.
In act the difference between the
normal school room with it's thirty or
a few more pupils and the one with
fifty is apparent at a glance; so much
so that one has to take into consider
alton these matters: o~verWOrked
teachers n inability to give proper
personal instruction.
Teachers Overworked.
In the city of Fargo there are twen-
ty rooms where the average daily at
tendance is over forty pupils and in
a few cases reaches fifty. The num-
, Der Of backward pupils and the fact
that they come from all grades and
NlacScS VI LIE SCiluOl IIldhtS Tie NOEh
Of the assistant teachers doubly hard
and also prevents her giving as much
time to he individual pupil as he
should have. Add to these causes a
lack Of suitable room and these two
schools present a situation that should
not prevail in the city and which I
believe should be remedied as speed
| lily as possible.
Ny observation Of the teachers of
these two schools leads me to believe
that they are among the best in the
city and are doing all in their power to
keep their classes up to a high stan
dard; but n need not be surprised if
many of the pupils fail to finish the
grades this season for the reasons I
have named above. .1', "".r
Unfair Burden.
OyerWork also tends to lessen the
usefulness of a teacher and uses IN
her nervous force and places a burden
upon her that she should not be called
upon to bear.
The north side could advantageousIy
use from four to six additional rooms
at the present time and with the pres
emit rate OF increase in the attendance
will require a few more each year and
the furnishing of this room is a prob
lem that this board will have to solve
In the immediate future. A large As
sembly room could also be used to
advantage on the north side OF the
city.
The High School.
The high school SO far as / have
visited it shows competent teachers,
interested pupils and classes OF al size

MISSILE sEWED in HEAD.
Mill City Man Saved by Removal of
Piece of Gun.

Eau Claire, Wis, Dec. 4.-The breech
pin of an old Norwegian shotgun, an
article as big as O. mans thumb, was
sewed up in the forehead Of Alfred
Johnson of Minneapolis by a doctor
who was called to attend him after he
had fired the ancient weapon and had
been struck by the flying pin. John
was brought to a hospital here, where
the pin vas removed. That Johnson
will survive is confidently predicted,
but the sight Of one eye has been lost.

Wren and commenced TO cut him. In
q moments time the knife had made
three long cuts on Wren's body. One
cut was across the arm, one across the
left side and the third and longest cut
was across the left hip. Wren then
pulled his revolver and shot the man
through the right leg. At this the
stranger backed OF few feet and
made another rush. Wren then shot
at him several times and the man
turned and ran when Wren shot him
the second time In tho left leg. This
did not seem to affect the strangers
running ability and he went up the
track to the north at fast pace. Wren
found all his shells for the gun were
gone and picked up a club and took
after him. When he had gone couple
Of hundred yards he caught mp With
the fellow and knocked him down with
the club, but the stranger turned q
somersault and was again on his feet
and running. This happened once
more and finally Wren managed % put
a good lick in what laid the man out.
The marshall then took him down to Q
doctors office, where both men had
their wounds dressed and then the bad
man was put in jail until this noon.
when he was brought to this city. He
gave his name as William OhGara OF
Champaign, Ill. and stated that he had
been working In the north part OF the
state.
