Helena, Feb. 5.--There are 1889
children of school age in Montana, ac-
cording to n compilation just COM
pleted, in the office of the state super
intendent of public instruction of the
reports of county superintendent on
the census that was taken last Sep
TENDER. Toward the support Of the
common schools Montana will con-
tribute $3.50 pei capita for each child
Of school age. or n total Of Ss75,ss6.
This money represents receipts from
the school sections-f6 and 36 in each
toWnship-~that were granted to the
state by the federal government for
school purposes. Until this year the
receipts of the school fund increased
faster than did the number of children
of school age so that tho per capita
allowance showed an increase. This
year, while the per capita allowance
did not increase, neither did it de-
crease. What it will do in the future
largely depends upon the rate Of de-
velopment in Montana and the demand
there Is for lands.
The census taken in 1916 showed
there were 1474 children in the
state and in 1914 there were 12G,417
children. That year the per capita al
]Owance was $h.

WOMEN LOVED BY LINCOLN
Cast a Lifelong Shadow Across
His Heart.
The letter 1CaS this:

There was a wild rose slip Of girl
in a blue sunbonnet, with whom he
walked the lanes of his homespun
days. There was a clever, cultured
woman, whose brilliant intellect
lighted his ascending way in the Illi-
nois legislature. And there was the
belle of the gay social set at Spring
field, who fluttered across his pathway
as it led to Washington. One he
loved, and one he tried to, and one
he married. These were the women
that he courted. They loved Lincoln.
To them the greatest American was
far nearer than a lofty figure on a
high pedestal. They heard his heart
beat!
These were the women that loved
Lincoln. One of them today lies near
the banks of the SangamOn where he
loved her. To the last there was with
him the long, long sorrow of her loss
that cast its shadow across his heart
in youth. As late as 1864 he pushed
aside state papers in the executive
mansion at Washington to talk of her
late in the night to a friend who had
come from back home. One rests
peacefully in a little cemetery at
Pleasant Ridge, Ill. The mother of
five children, her tombstone reads:
"Mary Owens Vineyard" One lies
at his side In the great mausOleum in
Springfield, where the state keeps her
bier and his heaped with fresh, fra
grant flowers. When an assassin's bull
let took his life, the American peo-
pie mourned a great president. She
mourned great Observation-Disclosures.
