ELLA FLAGG YOUNG

Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, who at
tanned worldwide fame as an educa-
tor during the years she was super
intendent of the schools of Chicago,
was born in Buffalo, seventy-two years
ago today. AS Miss Ella F'lagg, she
became schoolma'am in 1862, when
only seventeen, and she continued
her career as an educator after she
became the bride Of William Young
in 1868. Mrs. Flagg received her
education in the high and normal
schools of the Windy City, where she
afterwards held several high posi-
tions, becoming city superintendent Of
schools in 1909. In spite Of political
antagonisms, she occupied that posi-
ton with unusual ability until her res
ignation a little more than a year
ago. No other woman has ever
held such a position in a great city,
and it is safe to say that no mere
man" has ever acquitted himself bet
ter in such a post During her in
cum bency Of the office Mrs Young
had to face much opposition from
politicians. who accused her Of being
a thinking machine devoid Of SEN
timent, and also of introducing "fads
and fancies' into the schools, but,
with the solid backing of the women
of the city, she won her fight and dis
comfited her enemies.

CROWN PRINCE OF SAXONY

Crown Prince George, heir to the
throne of Saxony, is "a years old to-
day, as he was born on Jan. 16, 1898.
AS an officer of the First Regiment of
Grenadiers, he was the first member
of German ruling family to be
wounded in battle. He was sent to
hospital in Dresden, where he receiv
ed the Iron Cross from the Kaiser.
His wound, severe one in the leg,
was slow in healing. and it was many
months before he could return to the
front. The Crown Prince is described
as tall and handsome youth, fond
of music and athletics.
The Saxon Crown Prince is the. son
of King Frederick August III. and
Princess Louise of Tuscany. The lat
ter eloped from the royal palace with
Prince Georges tutor, a Frenchman
named Giron, in 1903, leaving be-
hind her three sons and two daugh
tiers. Not long afterwards she gave
birth to another daughter, which she
gave into the custody of her royal
husband. who soon brought about
dissolution of the marriage. Fred
erick August was crown prince at
the time of his spouse's scandalous
escapade, and did not ascend the
throne until 1904. 4
Crown Prince George and his
brothers and sisters were permitted
to receive occasional visits from their
mother up to the time that she pub
lished her memoirs, in which she
charged her former husband with
gross cruelty, and ridiculed his fam
lily. After that the recreant ex-Crown
Princess-who in the meantime had
married and divorced an Italian
pianist-was shut off from any asso-
citation with her children, and the
King and the Saxon government
have taken every precaution against
the possibility of the Crown Prince
coming under the influence of his
mother. Her utter disregard for
morality and the conventions, and
her public association with disreput-
able men and women. together with
the publication of the scandalous
memoirs led the Saxon government
to reduce her allowance to meagre
outbreak of the war it was rumored
that a matrimonial alliance was be-
ing arranged between Crown Prince
George and the Grand Duchess Tat
lana, the second daughter of the
Car, but subsequent events have Of
course made such a match impossi-

PIERRE LAWMAKERS
Brief Resume of Doings of the Legislature
Written for the Chronicle by It's
Pierre Correspondent.

Pierre, S. D., Jan. 22.-One of the is
sues which will be of especial interest in
the Black Hills section of the state,
which will receive house consideration
| early after the members return from re-
| cess, will be the action on the impeach-
ment complaint filed by Frank Lock
hart, of Rapid City, making charges
against Judge McGee of the Seventh
| circuit 1t is procedure nearly new to
| this state, and one on which the Legis-
lature is called upon 10 act without
| precedent other than old ones from
other states There is no legislative
plan of action fixed, and the house must
set its own preCedents in whatever &C.
tion it may take. On account of the
wide acquaintance OF Judge McGee all
over the Black Hills section of the state,
the people of that section will be vitality
interested in the outcome of the pro-
ceduTe.
Senator Hale, of Meade, has got the
bill prohibiting bail on appeal on con-
viction in larceny cases through the
senate, and when it gets to the house it
will be pushed by Bucholz, of Butte,
who has introduced a similar bill in that
body, and the western members gener-
ally are ready TO help it along.
The bill by Guifoyle to allow wives
and widows of old soldiers rights in the
Soldiers Home was up for final action,
and the Fall River county representa-
tive made strong plea for the bill, but
it was sent back to the state affairs com
mittee for further consideration before
finaI action may be taken upon it. With
the negative opposition Of the Soldiers
Home Board, or rather with no endorse
ment of the plan by them it is likely to
have hard shedding if it gets through at
this session.
Senator Hale's resolution memorable
ing congress to make Fort Meade one Of
the permanent military training camps
of the northwest is through both houses
and the memorial will be sent to the
South Dakota delegation at the national
capitol with request that they use their
efforts to that end.
The Bucholz bill empowering boards
of commissioners Of incorporated towns
to grant electric light franchises has
passed the house, on his explanation
that it had been discovered by several
towns in the Hills, that while the law
gave them the right to grant street car
franchises which they had no earthly
