While corn over the Omaha division Is
asserted to he in good condition, the fall
ing off in condition is due to the fact
that there was rain during several days
during the week, preventing the cereal
from ripening.
As to wheat. the Burlington's report
states that where threshing has been
done, the yield has been satisfactory, but
due to too much rain the quality has been
below the average standard of past years.
1t is estimated that taking the state as
a whole, about % per cent of the winter
wheat acreage has been sowed and about
30 per cent of the blowing finished.

Audit Bills

The board of county commits

the past three days. AS this
is the beginning of the October
term and no bills have been al
lowed for three months, the COM
missiOners had large number of
them TO look over and audit.
The total was something over
twelve thousand dollars, mostly
in small amounts, and it was no
small task To go over and exam
inc them. The board had near
ly completed the bills Saturday
night but as there was other mat
ters to attend to, they ment again
Monday.
Among other matters they
opened the bids for furnishing
coal to heat the court house for
the coming winter. According
te one of the commissioners there
was very little difference in the
bids submitted and they could go
into the open market and buy the
coal at retail in single ton lots

A number of the property own

is much lower than walks have

The property owners are intending

also some retaining walls which

Boys Plan to
Wreck Automobiles

One of our readers informs us
that a plan has been formed by a
number of boys to play a so-called
joke on the automobile owners
of the city Halloween by driving
nails in boards and leaving them
ON the streets with the nails turn
ed up so that automobile owners
will have their tires punctured.
He asks us to call attention to
the penalties provided by law for
the punishment of malicious mis-
chief that results in damage to
property.
We doubt if any of the boys of
the city would deliberately plan
anything of this kind, but if it
should be done, now that the plans
and parties are known, it certain
ly would go hard with the guilty
parties.

OVER Thirty

The Two Miracle Concrete
company is pushing the work of
grading in district number three
in fine shape and is striving to
get the job completed before the
fall rains set in if possible. They
now have about thirty teams on
the job and have about thirty
five men at work besides the
tcamsters. They are hiring more
men and teams as fast as they
can secure them.
None of the work on any of the
streets i'm the district is complet-
ed but they have made a good
showing on College avenue, a por-
ton of jefferson avenue, and on
Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth
streets and have done some grad
ing on Thirteenth street. The
grading is so far along on some
of the streets that they have
started building forms for the
concrete curbs and cutters.

It is hard to say when they will
start on the concrete curbs ard

for permission to grant a lower

Trouble Over
School Matters
TREFFERY SCHOOL HOUSE NAILED [
Trouble With Pupil Makes District Row When
PaTSnt Takes Matter Up

The people of the Trenery
school district are in trouble over
their teacher and the school house
has been nailed up and no school
is being taught at present. T..
Byerly, one of the members of
the school board aud Ira Fields,
a patron Of the school were IN
st. Maries Monday to see Miss
Gerhart, the county superinlend-
ent of schools, and to consult an
attorney about the matter.
According to the story told by
them the entire trouble is over
one pupil, Paul Treifery, about
IA years of age who was suspend
ed by the teacher for refusing to
study or do arithmetic work. His
mother took the matter up with
the school board and a special
meeting was called for last Fri
day evening.
Mrs. lreffery was present at
the meeting and charged the
teacher, Miss Brown, with refus-
ing To teach her son and suspend
ing him without cause and also
with being incompetent and using
old fashioned methods in teach
ing. She claimed that the teach
er did not divide the pupils in
to grades but taught them all in
one class out of one book. In
reply the teacher stated that up
to a day or two before there were
only two books in the whole
school and she was obliged to
utilize them in teaching the whole
school, making the matter taught
applicable to the age of the
school.
The members of the board are
A S. Carl, Jacob Gordon and T..
Byerly. According to Mr.. Dyer
ly Mr.. Carl sided with Mrs. Trcf-
rey and without putting the ques-
tion to a vote, told the teacher
she was discharged, at the same
time writing her out a warrant
for months pay.
The teacher still had a key &c

er and have signed a petition
asking for her retention. This
lpetition he had with him.
He proposes, if necessary, f.
carry the matter into the court
to retain the teacher if possible
and he and Mr.. Fields were il

d. Keeton over the matter.

their product in Spokane and
shipped two carloads of boxes

The time of the board was TAX
en- up Monday in examining and
allowing claims for illegal tax
certificates and cancelling the
same. There are a large num-
ber of these illegal certificates,
an inheritance from Kootenai
county before the division. The
majority of them arose by the
land being assessed before it was
patented.
