SISTERS WILL START
SCHEFf|ELD SCHOOL 1916

The people of Scheffield have de-
cided to establish a Sisters School to
meet the needs of their growing COM
munity. The location selected is just
south of the church and the excava-
tion has been made this fall. AS the
basement is to be concreted nothing
more can be done this fall, but they
are ready to proceed rapidly early in
the spring. The building will be 80
by 60 feet and two story above the
basement and will cost some $4,000.
Provision will be made for rs or 30
boarding pupils and the new build
ing will accommodate about so in all
while the rooms in the church base
ment will provide for rs to 100 more
The Scheffield people are also i'm
proving their church. Three new
affairs, two side and the high altar
are to be put in right away and
they are discussing the purchase of
regular church chairs to replace the
$50 homemade seats they now have

SCHOOL CONSOLIDATION
IS INCREASING

N. C. Macdonald of Valley City,
who is state inspector of consolidated,
graded and rural schools, was in the
city the first of the week en- route to
Golden Valley.
Mr.. Macdonald is particularly in
terested in the consolidation of rural
schools. There are at present in the
state about 300 consolidated schools,
100 Of which are out on the prairie.
None but college or normal gradu-
ates are employed as teachers so that
the standard of the work accomp-
lished ranks just as high as that in
the city schools. Agriculture and
handicrafts receive special attention,
thus giving the students an industrial
education as well as knowledge along
other lines.
The high school work is very
thorough and receives full state cred
it.. These schools, besides being edu-
cational institutions, are social cent
ers for the community, where the
people may meet now and then simp-
ly for a social time or to discuss
problems which interest them.
The farmers are beginning to see
the Importance of consolidation for
in that way many children who could
not otherwise afford a high school
education, have the opportunity Of
obtaining this culture which they
need just as much as city children.
Many schools in this vicinity, es-
pecially out north at Killdeer and
Werner and all along the north line,
have consolidated. There are also
several such schools right in the
heart of the Bad Lands.
Since efficient teachers are neces-
sary for these schools Mr.. Macdonald
heartily recommends a normal school
at Dickinson to supply the high
grade teachers needed in this portion
Of the state.

.BO|SEN'S LAND CONTESTED
HEARING At DICKINSON

There was a big homestead contest
on Tuesday before Register w. B.
Dickson and Receiver Ed. j. Hughes
of the Dickinson U. S. land office.
Anton Lovass contested the 320-acre
homestead of Lehman Boisen, single
man, on the ground of insufficient
residence, etc.
The claim in question is located in
the Bad Lands southwest of Midway,
a short distance from the C. C. Mead
and Elwin johnson home and was
entered by Boisen during November
of 1913. Claimant was away in Min
nesota during the early winter, re-
turning within the required time and
erecting good frame house and
barn, said buildings being of the val
ue Of $500 or more. The house has
a basement and is considered better
than the average claim house.
Anton Lovass claimed that Boisen
had not cultivated the land and did
not have stock to Craze upon same.
1t was also alleged that he had not
resided upon the land all of the
time. -
Lehman Boisen's contention was
that rough homestead in the Bad
Lands did not have to be cultivat-
ed to any extent to comply with the
law; such land as he had was only
fit for grazing purposes; and the
reason that he did not own stock was
because he had used all of his money
in buying material for the house and
barn. He testified that he had slept
in his house much of the time dur
ing the summer but did not claim to
have been there all the time, as he
had been engaged a few miles away
in cultivating land. He had also
worked at the Mead-Johns ranch
and had used their teams and machin-
cry in carrying on work at his home
stead. He also stated that some
party or parties had broken into his
claim house.
Attorney H. A. Burgeson, of the
firm of Casey & Burgeson, appeared
for Anton Lovass, while Attorney w
F. Burnett looked after the Lehman
Boisen interest, calling C. C. Mead
Elwin Johnson and Joe Klingman as
witnesses.
It will take the local U. S. land
office some days to review the testi-
mony and hand down a decision.

TOWEL ALIAS JOHNSON
IS TAKEN TO JAIL

R. A. Towel alias johnson and sew
eral other names, is in Jail on a
charge of bootlegging. He was up
before Justice A. P. Folsom the last
of last week and from the informa-
ton that the officers had there did
not appear to be much doubt as 70
the guilt of the party. It is believed
that the man has been operating
with a suit case along the railroad,
spending a few days first in one
place and then another. He was ar
rested at Belfield, it is understood,
the past season, his name being
known then as Johnson. He appears
to have had many different names.
Justice Folsom fixed bail for the
party at $500, but no attempt was
made to get bondsmen or to secure
legal counsel.

WAS ON WAR PATH

There was serious trouble north of
South Heart last Friday and Satur-
day when a call was sent to the Of
fcers at Dickinson. John Tarchala
had been drinking and creating all
kinds of disturbances, assaulting his
wife and son. The members of the
family made the complaint and the
man was taken to jail. When he
sobered up he was very penitant and
the members of the family brought
in the money and paid his fine Of $40.
He was also given sentence of 10
days by Justice A. P. Folsom.

by the late DR.. s. Weir Mitchell be-
fore the Physicians Club of Chicago,

found testimony which overwhelms

feeling, the calumniators of the Cath

WHAT ToNklN IS DOING.

In the last thirty years the Catholic
religion has made such wonderful
progress in Tonkin that two vicariates
and a prefecture have been recently
erected. The Increase in seminaries
and schools has been equally marked.
We quote Bishop Marcou's words re-
garding his district, and it may be said
that the same encouraging outlook ap.
piled to all parts OF this country: 90
Speaking only of Maritime Tonkin,
Of which 4 have charge, / can say that
in the last twelve years the Catholic
population has grown from $4,000
souls to 103, 900. Two new seminaries
have been built and are filled with
students. sCatechumenates and schools
are always being opened. Considering
that my mission was founded as re.

are amazing. s: @ IL. g.
