SCHOOLS ARE CROWDED
COMMERCIAL COURSE BRINGS
MANY STUDENTS INTO HIGH
SCHOOL, THIS YEAR

The local public schools opened for
the l913-19l4 term Monday morning
with a short session for the purpose of
organizing the classes and to prepare
for the regular school work. The at
tendance on the first day was the
largest yet registered at any opening
day Of the schools. The high school
had an enrolment Of 22O students on
the opening day this year, as compared
with 200 at the same time last year.
The enrolment in the graded schools is
also much larger, the Central enroll
ment Oh Monday beiAg 221, the Lincoln
$50, the Columbia 1S9 and the Haw'
tho1ne $50. The classes in the kiewe]
building have been discontinued this
year and several Of the lower grades
have only half day sessions at the
present time.
The increased enrolment in the high
school is due largely to the addition OF
the commercial course. NJ. w. Zipoy
has been engaged to teach the com
nlercial department in the high school
-Four subjects are offered in this course
namely: penmanship, commercial arith
metic, shorthand and typewriting
These subjects are very popular with
the students and a large number are
taking this course. Besides the adj
tition Of this course the erection of q
new gh school building is thought tc
have caused the large enrolment in
the high school. Many families living
in neighboring towns and villages have
moved to this city in order that thei1
children might get thorough educa
tional- training.
1t is understood that the new high
school building will not be completed ir
the time stipulated in the contract
which was Oct. Is. The plasterers are
working on the third floor and most Of
the work remaining to be done is put
ting in windows and the finishing
work. The building will be ready fol
occupancy by Jan. l, however.

Two DEER PUT IN PARK
BUCK AND DOE NUMBER AMONG
PETS WHICH NOW OCCUPY
PINE GROVE PARK

The long looked for deer for the
Pine Grove park have arrived. They
were shipped from Mankato Tuesday
evening and arrived in this city
Wednesday morning at 2:10 by express
The deer, buck and doe, both two
year-old. were taken from the baggage
rooms of the depot Wednesday morning
by Val. f. Kasparek and T. H. Dewey,
who brought them to their enclosure at
the park and liberated them from the
crates.
The deer were purchased from Man
kato for $50, excluding expressage,
which amounted to over $l5. The
tract for their enclosure covers an area
OF about two and one half acres, lying
in the southeast corner CT the park
Twelve-f foot cedar posts support an ex-
ira heavy netted wire which is four
feet in heighth, and over which are
stretched two barbed wires and two
smooth wires, making the fence nine
feet high. A part Of the fence runs on
a parallel with the roadway which pass
es through the park. 1t is the intention
oe those interested in the development
Of the park to have driveway built
around the entire deer enclosure.
Great interest is being manifested in
this addition to the collection at the
park, and the next few weeks will un-
dcubtedly see large number Of visit
ors to the grove.
Plans are to add a black bear, some
eagles and pheasants to the collection,
but this may not be done until next
year.

THAW FREE FOR ; HOURS

quarters here today, at noon was a
free man in American territory, trav-
cling in an automobile with a mum.
Der Of American newspaper report
ers.
Three hours after deportation he was
arrested in New Hampshire without a
warrant, but as fugitive from justice.
The Matteawan fugitive was drop.
ped over the border by the Canadian
authorities into Vermont. Alone, free
but dazed, he did not know what to
do The newspaper men following him
took him into their car and travelled
with him. At noon they had passed
from Vermont into New Hampshire.
AS the car progressed the newspaper
men reported Thaw's movements.
Extraordinary Situation
The situation that Thaw found him.
self in was by far the most extra
ordinary that has marked the progress
Of his sensational case since he fled
from the Matteawan insane asylum,
Aug. Il. Believing this morning that
he was being kidnapped, he resisted
forcibly his removal from Coaticook.
only to find that the outcome Of his
quick dash in an automobile ia
American territory was to bring him
unexpected freedom and place him in
the hands of the men who up to the
present time had devoted their ener.
sies to the reporting Of his case.
Thaw was dazed at the suddenness
OF the events of the morning. Without
his array Of legal council he did not
know where to turn for advice. After
brief consultation with newspaper
men, the automobile hired by the re.
porters, with Thaw in it, went on to
Averill.
Here brief stop was made and by
no clock he had crossed the Vermont
line into New Hampshire.

j. W. Crossfeld, local camp secre-

half years. AS this is one of the old-

hundred of the NJ. w. a. camps have
organized since the local camp was
organized, which was twenty years
