THE House bill to repeal the
State aid to High Schools was killed
in the Arkansas senate Tuesday by a
vote of 20 to 1j. The state aid law
passed in 1911, takes $4,000 per
year out of the common school fund
for the aid of high schools and
normal work. Of this amount $40.
900 is used in paying tuition of
country children who attend city
high schools, $4,000 is used for
normal work in the high schools,

BUYS FINE STOCK

James A. Caughren and John Allen
Wednesday afternoon attended the
first annual sale of Meadow Lawn
Stock Farm Scotch Short Horn cattle
on the Benton County fair grounds.
Fifty-four head were offered for sale.
Recently Mr.. Caughren purchased a
very fine roam bull from a well known
breeder exhibiting at the state fair,
and yesterday he paid good round
price for three splendid roam heifers.
Lavender Lilly 206115, was born Sept.
4, 1914; Lavender Blossom 20320O,
was born Aug. 8, 1914: Victoria 10th
2O6123, was brn Nov. %, 1914. These
are all exceptionally fine heifers, and
as they are from a different strain
from the young sire purchased at the
state fair, the Sank Centre man has
the necleus for a splendid thorough
bred herd. The animals will be placed
on the Caughren Stock Farm in Get
ty township.

Herald Special Edition of October Twenty-SK Will
Exploit Advantages of Minnesota, Central
Minnesota and City--Many Features.

During the month of October nearly
500 of Minnesota's leading newspa-
pers will publish special editions in
which the advantages of Minnesota
as an abiding place will be proclaimed
to the world at large. Most of the
papers will issue their edition during
the week of October 10th.
The Herald will also issue a special
edition, but not next week. A rush
of work in connection with the county
fair, and other reasons has caused the
publisher to defer the Herald edition
until October Goth.
The Herald edition will consist of
at least 5000 copies and will very ik-
ely reach "a or 80 pages. Hon. Frank
M. Eddy, associate editor of the Her
aid, has been commissioned to write
three special articles for the Herald's
special edition. The first one is devot-
ed entirely to Minnesota and is cloth
ed in the peculiar style possessed only
by Mr.. Eddy. The Herald is fully
convinced that he is better qualified
to write Minnesota story of real val
ue than any other man in the state.
The second article will be devoted
to that section of Minnesota adjacent
to Sank Centre and will show the man
fold advantages of Central Minnesota
over other sections of the state. Mr..
Eddy's extreme familiarity with every
nook and corner of the state pre-em-
inently Qualities him to prepare this
very important article.
In the third article Sank Centre
from it's very beginning to the pres
ent time will be thrown on the screen
of publicity. Arrangements have been
made with Artist Rydholm to photo
graph all of the many interesting and
beautiful spots, as well as the public
buildings, churches, schools and bus
mess streets.
We confidently expect to make this
special edition one that will not only
be cre6it to the very complete Hse-

LYCEUM COURSE TONIGHT

This Thursday evening the first OF
a series of entertainments furnished
by the Midland Lyceum- Bureau and
given under the auspices of num-
Der of Sank Centre business men will
be given at the Caughren theatre, the
Mendelssohn Sextette being the at
traction. Season tickets for the en-
tire course are being offered for $1.00.
This course is undoubtedly the very
best that has been offered to the peo-
pie of Sank Centre for many years.
1t is guaranteed by about rs of the
business and professional men, and
unless the course breaks practically
even this season it will undoubtedly
mean the passing up of this sort of
entertainments hereafter. If you are
interested in the course, buy season
tickets at once. Just think of it, five
high grade attractions for a dollar.

THE INDIAN EXHIBIT
Unique Display of Indian Handiwork
From White Earth Reservation

In the St. Cloud building at
the fair this year appeared a very
unique exhibit, which did not attract
the attention it deserved, as it was one
that could be duplicated in few places
in the country. We refer to the ex-
hibition of Indian bead work from the
White Earth reservation in charge of
E. c.. Perry, Superintendent of the
Government Indian School at White
Earth, assisted by Mrs. Critts, of
Ogema, a full blooded Chippewa In
dian and Miss Clara Carr of this city.
The exhibit consisted of various ar
ticles of bead work, curiously wrought
buckskin garments, deliberately trim
med with beads, dainty moccasins, an
cient relics and various other articles
and relics.
Among the exhibits was an ancient
medicine bag more than a hundred
years old that occupied an important
function in all the ancient treaties be-
tween the Sioux and the Chippewas;
and an Indian peace pipe that had pas
sed around the warrior circle in the
days when Minnesota was an unex-
plored territory.
In the past the Ojibwas (Chippe-
was) were the most expert bead work
ers among the Indians, but now this
almost a lost art among the modern
Indians. Only the older women prac-
tice it. There will probably never be
another exhibit like this at our Fair.

WAS INDICTED FOR FIRST DE-
GREE MURDER-THE FRED
WOEBKENBERG CASE

The Todd county grand jury last
week considered the case of the State
of Minnesota against Chris Altenberg,
charged with the murder of his bro
ther-in-law, Anton Larson, last Feb
ruary. The jury brought in verdict
charging him with murder in the first
degree.
Altenberg was brought before
Judge Parsons last Thursday and en-
tered plea of not guilty. Monday
he was again brought before the
court and changed his plea to guilty
of manslaughter in the first degree.
Chris addressed the court at some
length as did his attorney, A. B.
Church. Judge Parsons sentenced the,
prisoner under the law to hard labor
at Saltwater until released under due
process of law. Unless released by
the pardoning board he must serve
sentence of 20 years. 1t will be five
years before he is entitled to a hear
ing before the pardoning or parole
boards.
The general sentiment is that the
sentence is just one as the pub
lie as a whole did not feel that Alien
berg should be convicted of first de-
gree murder and sentenced to life i'm

THRILLING ASCENSIONS
DeRonda Pleases Fair Crowds With
Death-Defying Parachute Drops

Balloonists and aeroplane men have
visited Sank Centre on numerous oc-
casions in past years, but none have
given the crowd quite as many thrills
as Mink DeRonda, the one-armed bal
loonist, who performed at the Stearns
County Fair. The young man made
two splendid ascensions, but was pre-
vented from going up on Wednesday
because of the high winds. Thursday
afternoon he made three cut-aways
with his parachutes and landed in
safety near the Doolittle farm south
east of town.
Mr.. DeRonda has been in the air
game for eight years. First with the
balloon and later with an aeroplane.
Last summer while pulling off stunt
with one Of the old Wright biplanes
the machine collapsed and he was
thrown to the ground, receiving severe
injuries, which necessitated the am
putation of the left arm at the Shout
der. 1t is possible that he may be
booked again for next years fair.

HOLD METHODIST CONFERENCE
Local Congregation Asks for the Re-
turn of Rev. r. w. Duel for An
other Year.

The annual conference of the north
ern Minnesota Methodists is in ses-
sion at the Wesley church, Minneap-
oils, this week. Rev. R. w. Duel, pas
tor of the Sank Centre church, is in
attendance. The sessions will last ov-
er Sunday and the pastors will receive
their appointments for the coming
year, Monday, Oct. 4th.
Rev. Duel has labored in Sank Gen.
tire for the past four years and the
congregation has sent in a unanimous
request that he be returned for anoth-
er year. His many friends outside the
church hope that he will be returned.
The conference program is an I'M
usually good one, such men as DR..
Wilbur F. Sheridan, general secretary
of the Epworth League; DIR. Edgar
Blake, corresponding secretary of the
board of Sunday schools; DIR. George
E. Vincent, president of the Minnesota
state university; DIR. Joseph B. Hing
eley, corresponding secretary board
of conference claimants; DR.. James E.
Freeman, rector of st. Marks Epis-
copal church, Minneapolis; Bishop
Frank M. Warne, Missinary Bishop;
DIR. Chas. M. Boswell, corresponding
secretary of the board of Home Mis-
sions and church extensions; DIR.
Thomas Nicholson, corresponding sec
rotary board of education; DIR. An
drew Gillies, pastor Fowler Methodist
church, Minneapolis; are among the
speakers to say nothing of Bishop
Barry, who is host in himself.

aid plant but of a decided credit and
value to Sank Centre, Central Mime
sofa and the state as whole.
Besides the three big stories, the
Home School for Girls will be given
due prominence, and it is the hope of
the publisher to have a personal write
up and cut of every business man
professional man and men of promi-
nence in Sank Centre. We also hope
to interest a number of our prosper
GUS and prominent farmers to the ex-
tent of publishing cuts of the farm
homes and their choicest live stock.
The expense of the edition contem-
plated will be considerable in cash be-
sides pressing into service all of the
energy which the Herald force can
command. The business men so far
interviewed have taken most kindly
to the proposition because they real
ize that with all of the other good
towns and cities in the state receiving
wide publicity at this time it is to their
interest to see that Sank Centre is
kept we'll to the fore of other cities
of its size and standing.
The Minnesota newspapers have
taken up this movement largely in a
patriotic manner. Of course they
hope to secure enough business from
the enterprise to break even Cor their
extra financial burden. Most Of the
papers will use syndicated matter ard
will be more or less alike to great
extent, but the Herald edition-well,
you can rest assured it will be differ
ent from the rest.
The Minnesota Week for newspa-
pers idea originated with "Herb' Ho-
falling, editor of the Mapleton Enter
prise and past president of the Mime
sofa Editorial Association. The Cal
ifornia newspapers tried a similar
plan few years ago and the year fol-
lowing brought more new and desir-
able settlers to the state than in any
one year before or since.
