The Normal schools are divided into
three grades-traiDing school, secon-
dsry school, and college. The secon-
dairy school work corresponds largely
to the high school work throughout
the state 1t was IN these secondary
schools at the Emporia and Pittsburg
Normals that the decrease in attend
ance occurred; at the Hays Normal the
secondary school showed an increased
attendance.
The decrease in attendance at the
secondary schools may be expected.
The reason is evident. More towns are
putting in bigh school courses, AID the
boys and girls are getting their high
school education at home. At Hays
the attendance in secondary courses
should continue, for there are fewer
high schools in the western part of
the state.

periods at which they make out finan-
cial statements, showing their profits

quired by statute to show statements

day.
These articles, the department is in

federal courts of these newspapers and
their editors and owners.
"If it is found that they are accept

One in Progress There Between Federals
and an Attacking Force of

Washington, April l0.--0vernight dis.
patches to the navy department from
Rear Admiral Fletcher reported fighting
still in progress at Tampico without ad.
vantage to either side. On ac-
count of heavy norther, Rear
Admiral Mayo was discouraging refugees
from going aboard ships there.
Admiral Fletcher's message said:
"Mayo reports fighting continues with
no change except that the gunboat lara
goza is assisting the Vera Cruz in shell
ling Arbol Grande.
"On account of a norther and no ad-
vantage in fighting, he was discouraging
refugees from coming ON board. He had
received few on the Des Moines along
side the dock. If the rebels receive ar
tillery, which seems to be improbabl
conditions will be more serious. Reports
are circulated on shore that American
battleships are supplying arms to the
rebels
Admiral Fletcher added that he had
directed Admiral Mayo to give refuge to
Americans and other foreigners on
American vessels as far as possible. The
department yesterday suggested to
Admiral Fle.svrer the possibility of tax.
ing the marines off the transport Prairie
at Vera Cruz and sending that vessel to
Tampico to receive the refugees, who
cannot be cared for on the other ships
without more or less inconvenience.
1t is about settled that If an addi-
tional ship is sent to the east coast it
will be either navy transport, pos
sibly the Hancock, now at New Orleans,
or a commercial vessel

tie or no danger to the lives of foreign,

Concerning conditions in Tampico, the
state department issued this statement;
From Vera Cruz, wireless reports on

situation as regards foreign property is
complicated and serious. The Waters.
Pierce Oil refineries have been occupied
by attacking forces during the last two
