Of Oberlin and is credited with being
the most brilliant graduate of the past
fifteen years from that institution. He
has brother who graduates from
Carleton College this year and the
fact that he comes to visit him is the
reason Grinnell people will have the
opportunity OF hearing him.

The women's Relief Corps dinner
and supper yesterday at the Methodist
church, for the purpose Of replenishing
their nearly empty exchequer, was a
decided success from every point OF
view. It was a crowd from start to
finish but a very companionable crowd
a get-acquainted crowd. and the quar-
tiers came In so fast and continued so
long that the relief corps was about
hundred dollars the richer for their
wearisome efforts. Out of this fund
many a heart depressed by sickness
will be cheered and have hope renewed
by the beauty Of the flowers 1rhat viii

An chemist and bacteriologist Of the
water department, Thomas W. Afelia,
has decided onacially that the recent
deaths Of about 200 carp and few
perch IN Kissena lake, Flushing. 4 L
were caused by drowning. When the
f1sh wero found floating on the lake
Q week ago there were sensational re-
ports that thsy had been poisoned.
Then . subtle humorist suggest they
had committed suicide
But upon, . thorough Interrogation
Mr.. Melia discovered no foreign ele-
ment that would have caused the
deaths. He learned that in . lake In
New Jersey In 1905 there prevailed
conditions like those that confront the
Queens park department. The fish in
the New Jersey lake died from no APP
parent cause. Experiments were con-
Quoted and 1t was found that the an
nual changes in the water, known az
'the lake bloom" caused by sudden
changes in the temperature, absorbed
all the oxygen in the water and thu
fish were actually drowned
MI. Melia found that similar COM
dition existed in Kissena lake-New

PoTTAWATTAMIE BOARD
INCREASE APPROPRIATION
Creates Separate Funds For Assess.
ment and Census Work-conditions
Imposed by Legislature to Be Com.
piled With, Agreement Having Been
Reached Between Attorneys.

Council Bluffs, May 13-After several
weeks deadlock and not little bad
feeling, the differences between the
board of supervisors and City Assessor
Frank G. Riker We're settled Tuesday
morning in long session behind closed
doors in the board room of the court
house. Riker seems to have secured
at least a potential victory over the
board in the fight, tho he will receive
practically nothing for his work in su-
pervising the census of the city.
In January the board voted to pay
the assessor of Council Bluffs $500
for his services this year. which would
include payment for the census as well
as for time assessment of real and
personal property. Riker objected
from the first, saying that the necessi-
ties of his position made this compen-
sstion too small to provide for either
adequate assessment or proper census
enumeration.
The state legislature passed law
providing that the census should be
taken under certain conditions and
specified sum paid enumerators en-
gagged in the work. The board of Pot
tawattamie county insists that the as
SCISSOR should pay the enunerators out
OF the salary allowance voted him in
January. Riker refused to accept this
figure, and the breach existed for some
time.
Will Pay Riker $3.50.
Riker employed counsel and the board
called in the county attorney. Tuesday
the question came to head and after
several hours, discussion the agreement
was reached that the board should pay
the assessor $4,000 for assessing the
city this year and $3.50 for the CEN
SuS.
The census appropriation practically
covers only the salaries of enumera-
tors and clerks with very few dol
lars for Incidental expenses. The
boards appropriation allowed s2.75 a
day for enumerators and clerks. and
it is said some viii refuse to accept this
rate Of compensation. 1t Is declared,
however, that this is the average pay
of enumerators ia all the first class
