either nodded or blinked appreciative-

the Atlantic to the Pacific, and to it
were added, on either side, irregular,
angling red lines like the legs of a cen
tipede, the feeders of the various sys.

new Atlantic.Pacific railroad.

GAVE HIM NINETY DAYS.

The case against Charles Graham and
Joe Collins, the two parties brought
over from Cottonwood last week charg-
ed with the theft of a suit of clothes,
was up for hearing in the court of
Judge Harris Tuesday evening and af-
ter the state had put on four witnesses
Graham made clean breast of the story
exbcnc-at;2g Collins and accepting en-
tire responsibility. The court gave
Graham ninety days in the county Jail
and discharged Collins. There is a new
law which provides for the working of
men serving Jail sentences upon streets
and public highways but as there is nc
provisions for the guarding of them
until this point is cleared up those who
are so unfortunate as to draw time il
the bastile will have to remain locked
up. However, as Graham is suffering
from an injury to his arm, he woult
not be able to do much in the way Of
manual labor.

ST., 900 and while the law is not clear
on certain points that might increase
this amount it may be necessary for
the doing away with the music depart
ment and reducing expenses elsewhere.
1t is hoped by the people of the district
that arrangements may be made for the
continuing of the school along the same
high plane as in the past. In looking
over the list it will be noted that all
who had not made it known to the board
that they had secured positions else
where were reelected. Miss Bakewell
who has been one of the efficient mem
bers of the teaching corps, secured 8
position elsewhere and did not desire re
election. With Prof. Rice at the heao
of the school, Miss Brooks principal ant
Mr.. Robinson in charge of the agricul
tural work and athletics and the re
naming members of the corps peopl'
of excellent ability, the public cal
rightfuiiy look forward 4vr mvih evei
better. than that of the present yea
the coming school year.
