Text Book Bill Dead In House.

"NN'S
With the refusal CT the house to
reconsider its vote on the ext book
measure, it is now up to senate to
decide whether or not the new law
is a satisfactory one, and the friends
of tho bin say they feel more con-
fident of its success in the senate
than in the house. The attacks made
upon the bill by the Educator com
pany, of Mitchell, itself a publisher
Of text books has apparently had
more OF an effect toward pushing the
bill along than it has TO stop it's pro-
gress. The strong defence put up for
he measure by Speaker Christopher
son may have weight when the SEN
ate gets the bill, and certainly went
d long way toward overcoming the
opposition on the floor of the house,
his defense of the measure being enc
which wa shard to meet and refute
III any way.
A new bill Will be presented in the
house this afternoon, to appropriate
not to exceed II thousand dollars
for a memorial monument on the site
where the Nerenderie plate vas bur
led by the French explorer on hills
If Fort Pierre in 1743. as an evidence
of appreciation of his explorations
an the name of France.
The investigating committee is
holding meetings, and collecting
whatever data they can in the short
time at their command to report on
at this session. They are taking testi-
mony OF the public examiner, and
expect Former State Auditor H. d.
Anderson to appear before them on
invitation today.
May Buy Governors Home.
The committee selected to pass
upon the ACCESSIBILITY OF a governors
residence. will probably make it's re-
port today or at least within a day
! or two, and it is generally understood
that it Will be favorable to the pur-
| chase OF a home already built, that
the present governor may secure
some of the benefits. To that end ii
is known that they have received
bids on several places giving the pur-
chase price at which they will sell.

MAHOOD breaches
FAREWELL SERMON
SERIES OF GOSPEL MEETINGS
HAVE BEEN PRODUCTIVE OF
MUCH GOOD.

DR.. j.. w. Mahood preached last
night on the subject of Fidelity" 1t
was more a heart to heart talk"
than a formal sermon. 1t was his
last service and in al informal and
yet impressive way he made an APP
peal to every member of the church
and to every one who has recently
begun the Christian life to be faith
full.
He said, BE faithful to Christ. On
/ recent battlefield a soldier was on
the ground dying when he was u.s-
covered by the enemy. He begged
not 10 be disturbed. Going back that
way later he was found dead. They
turned him over and there under
meath they found the 'colors.' He
had sworn to be faithful to the flag
unto death and he had kept his
word. Jesus Christ demands a like
fiedelity and he must have it on the
part OF his soldiers.
BE faithful to the church. The
church is the bride and the body
of Christ. the bible says, and no man
can be loyal to Christ and disloyal
to his church. A little girl found
her mothers church letter lying in
the bottom of an old trunk. She evil

meant for she came running to her

ret To belong to the church OF
Jesus Christ is the highest honor and
no man ought to be coaXed to come
into it.
When the late speaker of the
Japanese parliament was a candidate
for that office, he was waited on BY
a committee and told that he had
better not let it be known that he
was a member of the Christian

Pierre, S. D.-That he had
found a discrepancy of approx
mately $1,000 in the cash account
of the secretary OF state was the
testimony of State Accountant
Truran before the Joint %investi-
eating committee today. Mr.. Tru-
raj stated that $410.50 OF this
amount has been paid into the
state treasury since he started
his investigation. with the under
STANDING that more was TO follow.
Asked as TO the statement of
former Auditor Anderson that
$500, 600 could he saved by prop
e. methods of running the states
business, Mr.. Truran said he was
unable to see where Mr.. Ander-
son could find any such hole in
the present system.

ANOTHER BAD GUESS ON
THE SUBJECT OF PRINTING

- - ~
Pierre. S. D.-The tempest in tea
pot over cost of printing the report
of the Investigating committee of two
years ago, which stirred the house
for a bitter FIGHT Saturday night has
been shown TO have been without n
definite ideas on the part Of the mem
hers as to what they J. getting into.
After a long dispute in which il was
alleged ma the cost of such printing
would run from seven hundred to
seven thousand dollars, the house
voted hat ii be printed in the daily
journal i'll case the cost was not to
exceed seven hundred dollars, and
on a show down the actual cost is
311.36. This is a part OF the fight
over printing which has been on in
the state for couple Of years, and
members on the floor stated in the
debate that they had a statement
from the public printer that the cost
would be seven Thousand dollars. As
til actual cost is so far below. the
printers are 10Y charging that the
public printer has shown his ignor-
ance of the real cost of printing. and
he is standing by his statement on
the questions asked Of him by these
who came for Information, the whole
issue being a difference in the amount
OF work which was to be done, and
how it was to he printed. But at any
ate the report for what it is worth
to the public is finally out, and will
give the information that there was
nothing worth investigating so far
as that committee was concerned,
outside OF their digging up the actual
noun CT interest collected from
public funds by past treasurers. and
asking that steps be taken to collect
same. sgnUna{

THE oou1rEa ENTERTAINMENT

Even those who had expected tho
most from the entertainment given
Wednesday evening at the Methodist
church by Rev. Theodore Coulter were
not disappointed while those who went
out of curiosity to see what it was
like" were greatly delighted.
Mr.. Coulter had been indisposed all
week and was not in physical condition
to meet his audience, and yet his mar
ner was so natural and his work -
very clever that few realized that he
was really ill.
All the selections were rendered in
almost faultless manner, his imperson-
ations being splendid in all classes Of
work. His Rip Van Winkle selections
and his humorous selections were very
much appreciated while his vocal Sc
lections were very popular with the
audience. The Rotations by Mrs.
Basham and the instrumental selections
by the Misses Nellie Witteman, Marie
Keck and Genevieve Dickson we,e
well applauded.
Altogether the evening was greatly
enjoyed by all present, who feel that
they were highly entertained.

Last Monday afternoon Mrs. Sam
Panion, an Italian woman of Cardiff,
WAS arraigned before Justice White on
a charge of disturbance preferred By
Clarence bearing, \ near neighbOr of
the woman. The complaint alleged that
Mrs. Panion was guilty of abusing
Mrs. bearing by using vile and pro-
fame language and making threats.
The testimony indicated that Ms.
Panion is insanely jealous and in her
fits of jealousy becomes At least ten-
pararily irresponsible. From the evil
dence brought out there seems to be
no justification whatever for her Wis
ionary broodings. Judge White fined
the woman s25 and suspended the fine
ode he lowed al andbehaviroo grnndr
pending good behavior and allowed her
to 20 home to her three small chill
dren. Before the night was over, how
ever, she had again stirred up trouble
and was again brought to Glenwood by
Sheriff Jessup and lodged in Jail. As
the Post goes to press hearing is be-
ing held in the county court to deter
mine the woman's sanity.

tered into written contract with the
board to that effect. She also had y
verbal contract for the janitor work
at IS per month additional.
After she had taught three months
Of the seven Miss Kelly, one morning
on arriving at the school house was
met by Ralph Lockard, one of the men,
bers Of the board, and advised that her
services were NO longer acceptable 10
the board. In other words that she
had been discharged. She departed,
but returned to the school house the
following Monday morning and the
next, ready to take up her duties un-
der her contract. She was again met
by Lockard and refused admittance to
the school house except to get her
books and personal belongings. Mr..
Llewellyn, the secretary of the board,
opposed the discharge of Miss Kelly,
but he was in the minority, Messrs.
Fame and Lockard favoring her dis
missal.
A few years ago Miss Hadley, teach
ing in this county, suffered similar
experience, but easily won her case
when she appealed to the courts. Other
decisions of similar character are re-
corded in the books.
Therefore, when the Kelly case was
submitted to 4 jury the first of the
week Judge Shumate, after the evi.
dence had all been submitted, ordered
the jury to find for the plaintiff in the
sum Of $3.50 the amount of unearnel
salary under the written contract He
left the jury to decide as to Miss Kel-
ly's claim of 500 for janjtor work, bu,
inasmuch as the members of the board
admitted that they had agreed with
Miss Kelly that she should have s.
per month for taking care of the build
ing, this amount was allowed by. the
jury also.
The defendant school board was rep
resented by Judge Dollison of this city
while the plaintiff employed no attor,
ney but, assisted by her brother, Chas.
G. Kelly of Rifle, conducted her own
case.
