FIREMEN'S CARNIVAL
OTHER CITIES SPEAK WELL OF
CARNIVAL To PLAY HERE
FOR THE FIREMEN.

With a big jolly crowd and every
thing running full blast, the great
Clifton-Kelley Shows opened Monday
night in Joplin, and surprised the
people with its bigness, cleanness
and its up to date wholesome amuse-
ments.
Three big free acts were present
ed, consisting of ''Tause," the high
diving dog who climbs to the top of
a ladder 65 feet high and at the
crack of a pistol jumps into a net
below. The Beehee Bros. did some
marvellous work on the flying trapeze,
a great act and worthy enough to be
seen in Ringling's circus.
The Clifton-Kelley Shows is one OF
the largest shows of its kind on the
road and strictly clean in every re-
spect and presents some very fine at
fractions. The shows are all enter
tanning and of high class.
There is nothing said or done in
any of the shows to cause the blush
of shame on the cheek of the most
modest person.
The autodrome is one of the fea-
lure SHOWS anu IL is enllTely new,
having never been shown in this city,
The auto motordrome carried with
this show, is but IS feet in diameter,
and is built at an agile of rs degrees.
In this circumscribed space two
riders on motorcycles ride in opposite
directions at a speed of no less than
rs or 80 miles per hour. Besides
this a full sized automobile is driven
at a speed that simply cannot be
conceived unless n is there to
see it.
There are many other feature
shows, among them being Dano's
wild animal arena, Mississippi caba-
ret. flea circus, tango minstrel maids,
jolly Dixie, Luna and several others,

SCHOOL MONEY
LAKE COUNTY WILL RECEIVE
$3.50 "a FROM THE STATE.

The state land department has
made its June apportionment of in
terest and income funds to the COM
mon schools and it amounts to $780,
097.41, Or S4.27 per pupil. The to-
tai apportionment this year is an in
crease of 21,63S.69 owe the June
apportionment of last year. Consid-
ering the fact that under the new law
the interest on the 1915 sales is not
paid in advance the increase is
largely due to the increase in rentals.
Commissioner Hepperle will put his
field force in the field after July i,
to look after the Unbiased land, and
do topography work.
Minnehaha county gets the largest
apportionment with ~$39,907.42, and
Brown county is second with $685.
1888, these counties having the
largest number of school children.
Lake %county's apportionment is
$15,0S1.64.

Take the Superb No-Extra-Fare Train

On your trip to California this
summer your enjoyment will be
much greater il your train affords
you every convenience and comfort
en- route.
The ideal train to California Is
THE Pacific Limited" of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railway. This
famous train of double destination"
goes direct and through without
change of cars to both San Francisco
and Los Angeles.
1t arrives at both California ter
min. in the morning. This is a much
appreciated advantage, for with ho-
tells likely to be crowded, it is desir-
able to have all day for getting To-
Gated.
The fares are so unusually low
this year that you will surely want to
take full advantage of them. BY
adding a little to the direct round
trip cost you can see the wonderful
Pacific north coast and return
through the vast mountain wonder
land pierced by the Milwaukee, pic
turesque Trail of the Olympian."
This route affords you a greater ex-
tent of beautiful and varied scenery
view from the train than any other
road on the continent.
For information about fares, time
of trains. sleeping car reservations
and for descriptive western literature
apply to local agent of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railway.

When Yankton Took Up Commission
Plan Schools Continued Spe-
cial Charter.

Yankton, June 1.-THE city
school board of Yankton was made
defendant in a suit brought in the
name of Theodore Halla, county SUI
perintendent of schools OF Yankton
county, in which it is sought to re-
strain this board from paying to The
ron A. Harmon, superintendent of
the city schools, any part of the sal
airy due him at the time the action
was filed.
The alleged cause of action is the
statement that Prof. Harmon is not
the possessor of a first grade certifi-
cate of the state. The real reason
for the suit is to determine the legal
ity of the present city school system.

Dead LANGUAGES.

Dead languages are ones that once
were in common use, but are now no
longer spoken unless by scholars who
have studied them. The ancient San
scrit, Greek and Latin have been dead
many centuries as common speech, al
though still used to some extent for
religious, scientific and literary pur-
poses. Coming down to more recent
times, most of the Indian tongues, OF
which there were many when the
white man came, are now dead. All
languages have their periods Of growth,
maturity and decadence, followed by
death.-Philadelphia Press.
