LATE NEWS FROM THE FOREIGN FIELDS

to be either Archbishop Quigley of
Chicago or Archbishop Ireland of st.
Paul. The nomination of either OF
these would give the United States
the usual representation of four card
inals in the sacred college.
A number of the other cardinals to
be created are those whose elevation
is made necessary by the particular
position which they hold These will
include Monsignor Hartmann of
Cologne, Germany, successor OF the
late Cardinal Fisher; the new primate
of Hungary; Archbishop Piffl OF Wen
ma and the archbishop of Toledo,
Spain.
The Italian elevations are expected
to include Monsignor Della Chiesa,
archbishop OF Bologna, and former I'M
der-secretary of the congregation of
the council, and Monsignor Sexafini,
assessor of the congregation of the
holy office of inquisition. These ele-
vations will naturally increase the
foreign representation in the sacred
college as against the heavy majority
which the Italians have always had in
the past but which has already been
reduced in the present membership te
thirty Italian and twenty-five foreign
cardinals.

Wants no Credit.

ROME, Feb. 2S.-Professor Sante
de Sanctis, Italy's leading psycholog-
list, has just issued public state
ment deprecating the recently pub
lished declarations OF friends that he
should claim part credit for the orig
mating of the now widely known
Montessori system Of child education.
Professor De Sanctis, whose educa-
tiona, work has been confined entirely
ia the field OF deficient children, de-
clares his friends We're mistaken IN
supposing that his system was either
the same or that it predated the one
invented by DR.. Montessori for the ed
ucation of normal children. Both the
scientific method and the didactic ma
terial employed by DR.. Montessori, ne

PASS ON QUESTION
Attorney General Settles Dispute over
New County Building at
keosauqua.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Feb. 2S--At- /
torney General Cosson has settled A
dispute which arose at Keosauqua re-
garding the construction of new
building at the county farm by declar-
ing that counties when replacing build
ings which have burned, cannot expeno
more than $4,000 in addition to the
insurance money without a vote Of the
people.
w. B. Newbold, county attorney at
Keosauqua, held the view taken by the
attorney general, but persons in keo-
tsauqua claimed that the matter was
similar to the capitol extension and
that the county could anticipate taxes
for this improvement without SUBMIT
ing the proposition to the voters.
At Keosauqua the insane building
of the county farm burned at loss of
$4,000 to 100000. The county pro-
posed to build a new structure to
cost $4,000. Certain persons held
that vote of the people would not be
required to make this expenditure.
proposition does not involve the mat
ter of debt. The county might have
! 100000 lying idle in banks and be
unable to spend more than $4,000 on a
new building unless authorized by a
vote of the people The capitol ex-
tension case has not the most remot
4 est resemblance to this case, Mr..
Cosson declares.

they do business on an annual basis.

Almost One Thousand People Dis

NEW york., Feb 27--Facing the
startling fact that no less than 961
New Workers have disappeared from
the face of the earth in three months,
397 of them being girls and women,
and that only 1874 of them have been
found by the police, the head of the
police department has ordered the
guardians of the greater city to divert
their attention for time from the
gangsters and gunner to the cadets
and white slavers.
With eight young girls of good fam
lily on the missing list at one time, the
police awoke to the undeniable fact
that white slavery with all it's almost
unbelievable horrors is real institu-
tion in New York. Discoveries made
recently in the finding of several lost
girls have shown that state of ar
fairs exists in the heart of New York
whereby young girls can be snatched
bodily from their homes, almost I'M
der the eyes Of their families and sold
into bondage that is worse than death.
The police, therefore have under
taken a campaign of vigorous rough
handling against the white slayers,
similar to the war they recei tly waged
against the gangsters Of the. east side.
The gunman crusade was in meas
ure successful. y. is believed that a
similar move against the enemies of
women will have equal success. In.
stead of arresting gunner in dignifi.

fit of long drawn out arrangements

in court and receive the homage of
their satellites while in the Tombs,
the police were ordei ed to use their
clubs on gangsters wherever found
/ The uniformed men and detectives
were authorized to beat the gunner

In short time several of the wors,

mended for killing thug who tried

Successfully Entertained

number of the entertainment course
to be given this winter by the
Mothers Club, appeared at the
High School Auditorium Monday
evening before a large audience.
From the beginning of the first
number of one and one-half hours
duration, the Quartette gave num-
Der after number without a
moments intermission and each
and every one was better than the
one preceding. The entertainment
given was of the better class of
musical, vocal and reading selec-

enjoyed by all.
The next entertainment of the

EVELETH WINS
Visitors Take First Game from
Ely HIGH School Team

Pluckily fighting to the last the
Ely High School football warriors
went down to defeat before the
Eveleth boys Saturday afternoon at
Athletic Park on the one-sided
score of 80 to o.
The Ely team was outweighed
and outclassed by their Mesaba
range adversaries but gamely held
the ground until the end. Only at
one stage of the game in the first
half did the local team stand any
show of getting near the goal and
that only for a brief period. The
Eveleth boys were too heavy and
easily broke through the line at
almost any stage of the game. The
Ely team also had hard luck with
their forward passes and steadily
lost ground on every attempt.
The material is there however
for a good fast team and more
practice and actual games will
bring out the best. Coach Cerveny
feels confident that the next game
will remedy some of the defects be-
sides minimizing the stage fright.

State Forest Day

A proclamation signed by Gov

follows:
Whereas the last legislature
passed a measure known as No.
9, the State Forests Amendment" !,
providing that such state lands as
are better fitted for growing forests
than for farming be set aside and
be managed by the state as State
Forests; and,
Whereas Amendment No. 9 is
to be submitted to popular vote
November 3rd, it is worthy of care
full consideration by everyone in
terested in the public welfare; and,
Whereas this measure will af-
feet particularly the public school
fund, it is deemed fitting and
proper that the subject of State
Forests receive particular con-
sideration in our public schools.
Therefore, Wednesday, October
%, 1914, is designated as State
Forests Day.. to be observed in
every public school with appro-
pirate exercises and discussions
upon the subject of State Forests

Released ON Parole

William Verrill and Charles
Soular who have been serving time
at Saltwater for many years having
murdered a man named Morse at
Biwabik some twenty years ago,
have been released on parole and
are now employed at Biwabik.
Both men were mere boys, 10
years of age when they committed
the crime for which thev were
sentenced to death. The governor
at that time committed the sentence
to life imprisonment on account of
the youth. Both have been model
prisoners and have held trusted
positions in the state institution.
The pardon board felt that the
men could be paroled and many
citizens of the county have been
laboring in their behalf towards
that end.

Good Advice

Young man, l notice that you
are not in school any more.
What's the matter? Think you
have received enough education to
carry you through the world? Or
do you stay out just because you
do not like to go? Didn't like the
teacher, eh? Well let me tell you
that you will find the meanest
teacher on earth now a dream
of love beside some of the bosses
you will work under in the cold
unfeeling years you will pillow into
when you have to get out and
hustle for yourself.
Education is the most valuable
thing in the world to a man, but to
boy it comes the cheapest. 1t
costs you nothing now to get that
which many man in this town
would give all he has to possess.

Policies 0. K.

Officers of the Merchants Life

of Minneapolis have written to
policy holders here that they will
guarantee the policies written by
c. A. Ebert. the insurance agent
who disappeared from here after
writing insurance on the lives of
a number of persons in Ely. and
also in Virginia.
These letters are to, the effect
that Ebert formerly worked for
the company, but had been dis
charged before he wrote the
policies about which the Ely
people made inquiry. Ebert, they
say is entitled to commissions on
all the policies he wrote, but the
company will not be responsible for
the unpaid bills left by Ebert.

.28 of a mill from the 1914 levy.
The total levy for state purposes is
AIS mills, compared with SOB
mills for this year. An increase of
1924 ,0OO,0 900 in the assessed valua-
ton of the state made part of this
reduction possible. The final
figures on assessments are not
available, as three counties have
not reported, and the state tax
commission has just begun its
work of equalization, but MIR. liver
son estimates the total personal
and real property assessment of
the state this year at 81 ,494 ,0OO,-
900, as compared with 81, 1863, 97O,-
302 for 1913. Another factor in
the decrease is the final retirement
of state capitol certificates. The
capitol is now paid for and q of a
mill heretofore levied is done away
with.
