Gus aliens, involving about 1900, will
be made by the Bureau of Immigra-

These deportations, following close

RURAL SCHOOLS PROGRESSING.
Propose to Teach High School Sub
iects Three Months.

Feeling the need for high school
training for their students, many of
whom cannot come to Mexico to get it
because of the great expense attached,
some of Audrain County's most pro-
gressive rural schools have proposed
a plan whereby the boys and girls in
the country can do high school WORK
and stay at home.
The proposition is to employ a first
class teacher for the entire twelve
months Of the year, the regular curse
of study to be followed by him during
or nine months and the remain
ing time to be spent in aching high
school subjects, Some suggest, also,
that a six day schedule be enforced.

One of the most entertaining chap
ters OF the book deals with the con-
struct'on of bird houses. It gives di-
rec.ions for making homes that will
really attract birds and that will pro-
tect them from their enemies. 1.-THE

by one of the authors in enticing near.
ly all the wild bivds of the vicinity to
come to his window in winter. The
box is first placed close to tree.
which is the natural feeding ground
of birds in winter. Then, after the
box is discovered to contain dainties
and the habit of feeding from it ia
established it is gradually moved to
place just outside the window. In
this way many Of the habits of other.
wise wild and shy birds can be accu-
rately observed and even photographs
can be taken.
Among the enemies of birds, cats
rank high. 1t is estimated that cats
kill about one.tbird of all the young
robins in Vermillion every spring.

There was an effort at-to paraphrase

There had been too much publicity.
True, the President had once said
that there could not be too much;
that publicity was his dearest hobby
and passion; and that no public busi-
ness shouts ever be transacted save in
public. But that was a little while
ago. Some water had flowed under
Cabin John Bridge since then. At
any rate Senator Hitchcock, fresh
from the tie vote with his chum.
Senator Underwood, for the leader

more publicity. There are indeed
many people who prefer to dine in
private: VIXEN they are eating stheir

something Of that sort, and are not

to have the public watch wry faces.
As for TIE Republican Senators, they
had nothing to conceal, and preferred

Tabor Independent "A bo,ribIa a:.
cident happened on the old Caba!ka
farm four miles east Of Tabor. w eu
nesday evening between five and six
O'Clock. when William Sailer, aged
~, was starting small, gasoline en-.
gine for pumping water and five
gallon tank of gasoline exploded. As
no one was near him when it happen
ed, an attempt at explaining how it
might have happened can be made on
ly by deduction, but it appears that
he tried to warm the engine up with
corn cobs soaked in gasoline and that
in some unaccountable way the S gall
lon can of gasoline nearby caught fire
and exploded. The unfortunate man
after the explosion was enwrapped in
flames and all of his clothing was
bu-nt from his body in a few minutes.
His shrieks and cries called out his
parents who saw him running about
the house. and his father who tried to
put out the flames was badly burnt on
the hands. After the accident, DR..
Blezek was called, but he could do
nothing for the man as his burns
were fatal, the skin and flesh being
burnt to scrap. DR.. Blezek took
him to the hospital at Yapkton where
death ended Sailer's suffering early
in the morning. The old gentleman
whose hands are friehtfully burnt
was also taken to the hospital.
