The decision of Judge Qroen In the High school Injunction suit of Slack Peterson against the Board of Education was re ceived here yesterday morning. Judge Green's ruling Is not favorable to the ectiool board , except on ono point. He annuls the Injunction restraining the board from payIng - Ing for the Oakland avenue site out of the school houio fund , but the general restrain ing order against the board remains In force until County Superintendent Sawyer shall have handed down his decision In the appeal case of T. L. Smith against the board. Ttmt part of the decision In which Judge Oiccn holds that Peterson had n right to bring the suit and to ask for an Injunction pending the determination of the appeal taken by Smith Is as follows : "Considering the prayer of the plaintiff first , as Is the logical order , I find that the question of whether the plaintiff wag en titled to have the purchase of the site en joined during the pendency of the appeal , wan , through n misunderstanding as to the pleadings , denied consideration when the temporary writ v\as granted. When the petition wae filed an order was entered by Judge Smith setting down the petition for hearing upon motion. This order dlspcsed of the matter presented.therein until such hearing was held. Subsequently an amend ment to the petition was filed , upon the allegations of which , together with the fcrmer allegations of the petition , the Is suance of the temporary writ was based. While the plaintiff asked In the amendment for an Injunction , a ruling thereon was refused because this matter was supposed to bo covered by the former order. As a matter of fact , however , the petition con tained no reference to the appeal and plain tiff Is therefore entitled to bo heard as to whether the defendant should be enjoined from paying for the site during the pend ency of the appeal. Coming now to the de termination of this question. It must bo conceded that If proceedings cannot be stayed during the pendency of the appeal It would in cases like the one at bar be wholly Ineffectual. I deem It quite clear , also , that the county superintendent bos no power to order a stay of proceedings. No law gives him such power and It does not Inhere In the duties of his office. It fol lows Uyit a party aggrieved by contemplated proceedings under the act , from which the act from which appeal Is taken , may resort to the courts for a restraining order , aud such bas uniformly been the holding of the state superintendent , acting under the ad- vlco of the attorney general. It Is Insisted , however , that there Is no showing that the plaintiff Is a party to the appeal , and there fore he cannot bo heard to complain that the board Is about to Ignore It no .far p.s Its having any effect upon tlielr action. The objection raises the point , by no means free from doubt , but upon 'the whole I nm of the opinion that as plaintiff could take ad vantage of a judgment of the county sup erintendent reversing the action of the board , that ho Is entitled to avail himself of the proceedings which led up to 1 in other words , the benefit of the appeal ac crues to any person having rights similar to the appellant , who chooses to take ad vantage of It. It follows that the plaintiff Is entitled to a modification of the former order for an Injunction to the end that on additional restraining order Issue temporarily arily enjoining the defendant from paying for the site of the new High school bullfllng or any work done tbereon until the de termination of the appeal or the further order of court. Leave Is given defendant upon a showing of the sale of the bonds voted , to move for an additional Injunction bond. " Muy Par for School Site. Judge Green's ruling. In which he dis solves the Injunction restraining the board from paying for the High school site out of the school house fund , Is as follows : "With reference to that part of the order which restrains the defendant from paying for the site except out of the proceeds of the bonds , the contention of the defendants must bo sustained. It may have been the inten tion of the voters to so limit the entire ex pense connected with the building , but the proposition submitted to the voters does not so state. The petition does not allege that It Is the Intention to divert the pioceeds of the bonds from the purpose for 'Which they wore -voted. It Is not claimed that funds have , or will be , Illegally raised to make this payment , or that the board has not the right to appropriate money In the school house fund to the payment of the site. On the other hand the answer shows that a tax has been levied through which some $15,000 will come Into the school house fund. The Injunction In this respect must bo dissolved. " firiKlliix U Part of Iliillillnir. Judge Green held that the grading Is part of the process of building nnd that the board cannot expend more than $300 for such work without first advertising for bids , and he de. cllnes to dissolve the Injunction as to this matter. Ills decision on this point follows ; "Grading or filling with reference to the purpose of building has been hold to bo the commencement of the building afterword erected. It was conceded upon the hearing of the motion that work enjoined was nec essary to the construction of the building. Under such circumstances expenditures for this work are clearly within the spirit of the law , " This practically leaves the matter where It was before , and the hands of the school board are tied until County Superintendent Sawyer hands down his decision In the Smith appeal case , which It Is expected he will do by the last of this week or the fore part of next. At the time of the hearing of the appeal no evidence was Introduced by the plaintiff to show that he was a taxpayer and a resident of the school district. In fact , there was nothing to show that Smith had any Interest In the case at all. This was remedied yesterday and Smith was given the necessary standing In court by a stipulation being flfed to the effect that ho Is a tax- pa ) or and resident of the district. The attorneys on one side have not yet filed their briefs with the county superintendent , but as soon as they do this. Prof. 8aw > cr said yesterday , his decision might be looked for.

There has never _ becn but ono state herd tested during Mr Gibson's administration , being that of the School for the Deaf at Council Bluffs , which was found to bo free from the disease.

MISSOURI VALLEY , la. , May 31.-Spe- clal ) The Chicago & Northwestern Rail road company Is still working a gang of men In the southwest portion of the yards widening the roadbed along the main line for the double track to be laid between hero and Council Bluffs. Tlio work Is being pushed at a lively rate and It Is only n question of a short time before this much needed Improvement is a reality. The doubling - ling of the track between hero and Council Bluffs Is an absolute necessity , owing to the tremendous buslnosir the Northwestern Is doing at present and from the fact that the Sioux City & Pacific , as well as some of the Chicago , St Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha trains travel this route.

The repeated mo if the words "ambus ! and "ambuscade" In the accounts of t recent fight In Samoa , sa > s the New Yo Sun , makes It more than a little dllficult grasp the circumstances from the scan details If by ambush Is meant what t word has alwa > s meant In Indian vvarfai then It docs not apply , for the Samoan do not fight that wn > . Ills tactics In war a \er > simple. At the beginning he c ta llshes himself In some shelter which w ! protect his own skin. This may be a co \rnlcut stone wall , or It may be a Samoi fort. The forts are usually bulkheads trco trunks thrown across some steep va ley which has natural protection again being turned or taken In reverse. TI wooden wall Is backed by earth , and i convenient Intervals are places where good marksman might command the line i hostile approach. But when the combat hi passed the early stage of resisting an nttac the Samoans seek to carry the field by ton of numbers nnd the Impetuosity of the : rush. In this there H little of the real Idea of a ambush , and few Samoans could restral themselves long enough to admit of a sui cesaful ambuscade. The probable moanln Is that to the marines and sailors nil bus fighting with savages seems ambuscade. I the only other Instance In which the S : moans ha\o > enturcd to oppose the rcgv lar forces of white people , the slaughter ( the German sailors In 18SS on the beach a Fangalll , the result was duo to the fatult of the foreigners , who coasted along wlthl pistol shot of the beach , making themselvc conspicuous by their white uniforms an showing themselves so distinctly that th darkness of the night was noell over thel secret expedition. When people fight sa\ ages In that waj almost any skirmish at pears as an ambush There are two German plantations on th outskirts of Apia , each the property of th great German trading company known Ic cally as the German firm One 1 the planta lion of Vallele , adjoining the municipality o the cast , and the other Is the Vnltele planta tlon , which is Just bejond the wester boundary of the municipality. The prcseii nccounti do not make It clear which planta tlon was the scene of the conflict. Yet n the two plantations are In a high state c cultivation and intersected In evary dlrectlo by the only good roads In Samoi , the condl tlonn under which the battle was give should have been altogether In favor of th naval forces nnd as far aa possible remove from the conditions which Samoans woul select for their fighting. There appears the ho some HKellhocd that the comb it was o the Vallele plantation , to the east of th town , for that whole line of coast seems t have jolnoJ Itself to the Mntaafa side. Th fact that the overseer of the plantation ha been arrested on the charge of aiding tl- savages Is still more of an argument for th iimo opinion. The Vallele plantation I : nannged toy Captain Hufnagfl , who hai much to do with the former troubles o sleven years ago. The Voltolo plantation I mdcr the administration of Herr Tledo nann , a man of another typo and far les Ikely to lay himself open to suspicion Pledeniann was promoted flora a llttlo clerk : hlp to his present place , and carries w 111 ilm the somewhat mild manners of the Ger nan commerclil man. The manager of thi k'allele plantation was a sea captain am icrved his time In command of the slavi hips or labor traders with which the Gor- nan plantations fill their barracks vvltl jlack laborers. Of the two men the forme ; rtbor trader Is mucKjuore likely to b6 founc irglng the savages onward In the attack or vhtte men. The rushing tactics of the Samoans arc > lalnly disclosed In Iho brief story of tin Ight. They Illustrate a peculiarity of tin 5amoan nature which has Its bearing or heir behavior In the face of an enemy The Samoan Is an arrant coward In SOUK ivnys. He avoids any encounter unices tin nlds are all In his favor and the advantage if position is with him , and he hates tc eave cover and to come out Into the open Ifet there are circumstances when these rewards will fight with all the ferocity o ; in Apache and be just as cruel and savage ! t seems to be due to the fact that th ( slanders have an Inverted fashion of cstl- natlng the value of the Incidents of war s'o Samoan has any fear of death. Al 'ace ' It fearlessly In battle and in disease , hey seek It by their own violent hands or rlvlal pretexts of annoyance , and In sheei cdlum of life they have It In their powci o think themselves painlessly out of life The risk of a fatal ending In battle can- lot , therefore , restrain such people fron he attack. Yet .nt the same time thai hose savages are so reckless of their owi Ives they go about in deadly fear o ! vounds. They do not mind being kllkd , uul hey dislike to be hurt. A very sllghl icratch of a wound will serve to put tht lolilest fighter of the party out of action md the wounded can never bo counted 01 is a part of the effective force until lonj iftor all outwaid signs of the hurt have mssed awny. Holding such Ideas as to fighting , cow- irds when It comes to enduring mcro pair aid absolutely careless when It conies tc ncotlng death , the Samoans must always irove surprising to the white men who bo iome Involved In their quarrels This will iccount for the Bland made by the Samoan rlbcsmen which loft them In possession oho - ho field. They had killed the leaders , the } ird taken the heads of two of them , and , .ccordlng to Samcnn ethics , the fight wae ton , and the sailors should have with- Irawn. But when the sailors renewed the .ttack thp lighting rage was on the IMaml- rs , together with the encouragement ol Ictoiy , and they mude a stout stand tc lolil their position. Yet when the white orcuH withdrew to their ships It Is safe o say that the savages no longer cared tn lold the place they had been so llcrcelj efendlng. In their own custom they would reak up Into small parties and scatter to arlous points , where they might get pigs ml taro for a fiast. Inriler of Atlantic UIHTN.

I hid almost constant headache , back ache , pains in the lower abdomen and great constipation of the bowels. I have used four bottles of Wine of Cardui , taking Black- Draught as needed , and now my menstruation is as regular as clock work. Mrs. L. M. WITIIERSPOON. The menstrual period should regularly appear no oftener than every twenty-eighth day , and should continue three to five days. There Is danger ahead if the menses come oftener than that H means an early death. Happy old age is impossible if nature's programme is not carried out. If the menses are too profuse or too scant , if there is suppression , If there is any weak * ness or drain in the organs of womanhood , not a moment should be lost in taking Wine of Cardui. As Mrs. Witherspoon says it regulates menstruation like clockwork. When a woman Is "regular" , and her delicate and distinctive organism Is strong and well , her health is sure to LADIES' ADVISORY DEPARTMENT. . be perfect , and a perfectly Kor nilvlcu In ctmci requiring Bp * cl l direction * , dlreniilTtnf tjtap- healthy woman has many tares.
