TEST METHOD OF
DISTRIBUTING FUND.

Jackson, Miss, Nov. IA test case
involving the eonstitutionality of Mis-
sissippis method of distributing the
common school fund was agreed and
submitted to the Supreme Court at
today's sitting, the commonwealth be-
ing represented by Assistant Attorney
General Frank Johnston.
The chief point involved is whether
the deficiency appropriation of $4,000
per annum. made in 1912, for the COM
mon schools, is constitutional. The
contention made against the validity
of the statue is that the appropriation
in question is not to be distributed
per capita to the counties, an the basis
of their number of educable children,
as is prescribed by section 2O6 of the
constitution.

minister would make every effort to
give them warning of unusual devel-
opments in time for them to reach
places of safety.
The French minister, Paul Lefevre,
said he had no intention of leaving
the capital now. He added that he
had issued no warnig to French
residents, but considered it quite prob
able that he would follow the example
of the British minister.

Huerta Remains Defiant.

Mexico City, Nov. lit was learn

the President himself had learned that

Mexico City, Nov. 17.-What doubt

BLOODHOUNDS PUT
ON THIEF'S TRAIL

Jackson, Miss, Nov. 17.-Blood-
hounds have been set upon the trail
of supposed burglar who entered a
local mercantile store early Sunday
morning, getting away with a number
of articles, but no cash.
The miscreant evidently thought he
had made a great haul when he appro-
priated about a gross of cheap rings
that outwardly had the appearance of
the real goods. Up to late hour last
night the thief had not been located.

'In The Bishops Carriage" at the
Lomo theatre tday. That Mary Pick
ford is a wonderful motion picture
actress and that David Wall is an ex-
ceptionally good leading man is ones
first thought after seeing the four
parts of '+In the Bishops Carriage"
Then one remembers the great care in
the production, the wonderful effects
obtained, the story which combines
underworld life with a fascinating love
story that lifts the girl to a much high
err plane and the general artistic eff
feet throughout and inevitably reaches
the conclusion that this film, from a
motion picture point of view, is the
best thing yet shown by the Famous
Players, and incidentally among the
best productions now before the pub
lie. When Mary Pickford appears on
the screen the old adage that THE
plays the thing" no longer holds true.

better banking houses than we have
here in Denison.
Our mercantile establishments are
the envy of the state and it is gener-
ally recognized that Denison is the
best business town between Boone
and Council Bluffs. If any one doubts
this statement let him but visit our
large department stores and if he does
not imagine he is in Chicago or some
other large city we will miss our
guess.
After mentioning the improvements
we have mentioned it seems but prop
er that the government of the United
States should furnish some tangible
evidence of it's existence in our COM
munity and no better way can it be
done than in the construction of the
building which it proposes to erect
and is erecting for the accommodation
of the mail business at this point
There are seven rural mail routes out
of Denison, three carriers in the city
and a number of other employees
necessary to handle the mail at this
point. AS handling the mail is the
governments business the govern
ment should provide place for trans
acting this business and it should be
of sufficient capacity to answer all
purposes and the building to be erect
ed is expected to meet all these de-
mands and no doubt when completed
will answer the purpose. We are per-
suaded that public building in Den
ison for handling the governments

sprung into existence and it's useful
ness to the community proved the
wisdom of the sacrifice made to Sc
cure it.
Another thing which has come with
our other improvements and because
of them is the Nicholson Produce
company, which is one of the largest
cold storage plants in western Iowa.
The railroad companies have recog-
nized the enterprise of our city and
have furnished us depot buildings
which would be credit to any city
in the state. The Illinois Central
especially has better station build
ing in Denison than at any other point
between Fl. Dodge and Council Bluffs
There are many people living in
Denison who can remember the poor
ly lighted town we had, with nothing
better than tallow candles and kero-
sene lamps and when to go about
at night from one part of the city to
another it was necessary almost to
feel your way, but who now rejoice
in the fact that electricity has taken
the place of the unsatisfactory lights
which were then available and with
we'll lighted streets it is not only SAFE
but feasible to travel the streets as
we'll by night as by day. 1t was not
long ago that if neighbor wished to
communicate with his neighbor trip
from one house to the other was nee
essary and if communication was
sought with one living in the country

the home or the Office by means OF
the telephone communication can be
had on moments notice, not only
with your neighbor, but with people
living in other towns and even in
other states.
While few years ago our citizens
regarded it as luxury almost to have
the use of carriage and those who
shad them were envied by many Of
their neighbors, it is their privilege
now to enjoy the use of automobiles
so common in use that they do not
appear to be even luxury.
Coming down to the immediate
present we mention with pride the
splendid new opera house which is
now on paper, but within few
months will be splendid reality and
a monument to the enterprise and eff.
forts of our citizens and especially
our German citizens. When this fine
building is completed no better opera
house can be found in western Iowa.
