CORDOvA SCHOOL CHILDREN
 ARE PROFICIENT

A set of twenty test questions, all relating to the present European war, were given to the students of several colleges in the East, among which were Bowdoin, Williams and New York University so says the Literary Digest of recent date. The average grade among one class of freshmen was 63 per cent, in another class 52 per cent.
 The pupils of the Cordova school of the higher grades wished to try the test, which they did with the follow ing results, those above 50 per cent being; James Hunt, eighth grade, Fl per cent; Genevieve Rosswog, eighth grade 66 per cent; John Rosswog, eighth grade, GA per cent; Tommy Hunt. seventh grade, 52 per cent. If any one thinks these are not high grades, look up the questions and see how many you can answer.

HARD FIGHT |S MADE: AGAINST
 BRANDE|S

WASHINGTON. Feb. 15. - s. w. Winslow, president of the United Shoe Machinery Co.,, was the main witness before the subcommittee of the Sen ate judiciary committee in protest to- day against the confirmation of Will sons appointment of Louis D. Bran deis to a place on the supreme court bench of the United States. Winslow told the senators that Brandeis had been guilty of improper conduct in his attack against the United Shoe Ma chinery Company as an illegal combi- nation in restraint of trade under the sherman Antitrust Act. He said that Brandeis, in his attack on the company's alleged illegal acts. was fighting the very things he had as sisted in when counsel for the con cern, and whose officers he had ad vised in their business dealings as the company's attorney. Brandeis had assisted in the creation of the com pany. A prominent Boston attorney also testified about the appointment stating that in his opinion Brandeis was a very able lawyer, possessed of a keen intellect, whose skill as an ad-
  yOcate was too well known to need comment, but despite all this, in the opinion of the witness. Brandeis was untrustworthy.

RUBY WOMAN IS BADLY
 FROZEN

Mrs. Gussie Bolan, colored woman 40 years of age, well known in the Ruby district, was found in a snow. drift on the Salatna river with both her feet badly frozen. She was found opposite the little settlement known as Salatna. For some time she has been running a roadhouse on Poor man creek. Dr. Conley has been called from Long creek to attend her. Elf forts to thaw her frozen limbs have been unsuccessful, and amputation seems essential. It is thought that death may result from her awful ex- perienCe.
 The unfortunate woman is known to be subject to fits of temporary in sanity. and it seems to be the con census of opinion that while she was in one of these fits she wandered off. improperly clad, and that in her wan derings she noticed the roadhouse light and was trying to reach shelter, when she fell over the bank into the snow drift. She came to Poorman about a, year ago from Cripple creek.

"Why is it children from poor homes

my opinion because people living in the
