School Notes.

337 pupils are enrolled as COM
pared with 81 at the close of the
first month of last year.
Spelling has been added as a
requirement of all the high
school grades. To meet the
need of many who are deficient
in this branch, we aim to en-
phasize the correct spelling and
usage of words which are COM
monty used.
A class in current events has
been organized in the 9Th grade
and in the high school. The
purpose of this class is to keep
in touch with the history of our
own time. The little paper,
Current Events" which we
use, publishes only interesting
data Of educational value, freed
from the harmful features of the
daily press. The use of the pa
per is found to be of immense
educational benefit, because it
deals with vital facts in a con-
else and interesting manner.
The domestic science and art
work is progressing very credita-
bly,. The elements of both
branches of work have been EN-
phasized this last month and
after the fundamentals have been
impressed, it is the plan to omit
some of the easier work and take
the more advanced part of the
course in order to make the work
have an immediate practical
value. If there are any who are
not regularly enrolled, and wish
to take this work, now is the
time to enter and take advantage
of this opportunity.

The claim was pressed by three Indian chiefs, Alexalulrr Johns, Ernest Sprir-, and Elop Ecls.
 Under the agreement thA in- ,lians will receive the money ask :. ed for, less the interest. It also was specified that two-thirds of the money would be distributed among the tribe on the Cattarau- gas Reservation in this state, and the other one-third is to remain in the state treasury for distri- button among the members of the Tribe who have left the state and now reside in the West. The claim had been pending for several years, and was he subject of much litigation.

Ropes Mountain Lion Alive.

Montrose, Cal.-The largest mountain lion ever captured in this part of the country was caught here by Uri Hotchkiss. a hunter and trapper of Colona, six miles east of that place.
 Hotchkiss started in quest of the lion with his son, George, Roy Humphrey, and a pack of dogs. The. dogs struck the trail and drove the lion up tree, up which Hotchkiss climbed after it, un- armed except for a rope. The lion chased him down the tree several times, but finally Hotch- kiss got within about three feet of the animal, and threw rope around his neck. ... -'' F
 The men at the other end of the rope attempted to pull the lion out of the tree, but were unable to do so. Hotchkiss worked around behind the lion and forced him off the tree by twisting his tail. After getting the lion down the men threw another rope around his leg. Hotchkiss then placed him on the saddle, fasten- ing his feet and head to the horn, climbed on behind. and brought tn, animal into Colona. The lion stands fully three feet high, measures nine feet from nose to the tail, and weighs i46 pounds.
