The Board of Education will flic a pe
tition as soon as It can bo prepared with
State Superintendent Barrett , a&klng for a
rehearing In the Jllgh school slto appeal
case. This action was decided upon at the
regular monthly meeting ot the board Mon
day night after a motion to select a site
had been put and failed to carry.
The matter ot the High school site was
brought up by Member Cooper , who moved
that the board proceed to select a site.
Member Stewart was opposed to any such
action at this time. Ho said the board
vvaa not In a position to select a site , as
In his opinion It was not safe to proceed
In the matter until a final and complete
determination ot the appeal before the state
superintendent was had. He did not look
upon the state superintendent's ruling In
the Oakland aveuuo site appeal as being
a final determination of the cne by any
meana and he was In favor , he said , of
applying for a rehearing. Continuing ho

said."If
"If the board tonight decides on select
ing n site I want to have the privilege of
recording my vote against any such action
for the reasons that I have stated. I will
refiiBo to vote for any site , the Oakland
avenue tract or any other property , until
a final detcrmlnatlcu Is had. As the mat
ter Is now the Eclectlon ot another site
might result hi the board having to pay
for two pieces of property und I for one
will never vote for any slto until a final
adjudication of the appeal Is had. If the
superintendent finally determines the case
against the board once and for all In a
ruling that will adjudicate the matter with
out question then I will gladly vote ta se
lect any slto that the majority of the board
may select. "
In order to bring the matter before the
board Stewart said ho would move that the
attorneys for the board apply to the state
superintendent for a rehearing.
Chairman Sims explained that there was
a motion already before the board and
Cooper's motion that the hoard proceed to
the selection of a site was put. It was
lost by aote of four against to three for ,
the ayes being Hess , Henry and Cooper
and the noea Sims , Swalne , Stewart and
Moore
Then Member Cooper offered to seicnd
Stewart's motion for a rehearing , but backed
down when Stewart could not guarantee
that the rehearing would be bed before the
next regular meeting. Swalno then seconded
ended the motion and on being put It car
ried by a vote of live to two , the two mem
bers voting agaius It being Henry and
Cooper.
Tuition for Outxlilc Pupils.
The question of charging for the tuition
of pupils living outside the dl&trlct was
brought up and Superintendent Hayden re
ported that thcra are about fifty such pu
pils In the schools It was decided that
they bo charged at the rate of $5 per se
mester for tuition In the grade schools , $6
for the first year In the High school , $7
for the second nnd $8 for the. third and
fourth years. The teachers are to be In
structed not to receive any such pupils
unless they can produce a receipt from the
secretaiy for such tuition fees.
On account of the meeting of the South
western Iowa Teachers' association at Crcs-
ton , Movamber i , 3 and 1 , It was decided
that the schools be closed on the 2d and
: > d to afford the teachers an opportunity
to attend. Superintendent Hayden reported
that a largo number of the teachers were
arranging to attend.
On motion of Member Henry It was de
cided to renew the Insurance on the hollers
In the various school buildings for $30,000
nt a cost of $300 for three years. The In
surance also provides for the examination
by tin export of the boilers
Supeilntendent Hayden was authorize ! to
close the Clurk choul and provide a place
elsewhere for the teacher , Mies Laura Mc-
Fadden. The enrollment at the opening of
the school year was only nine nnd this has
now dwindled to six , with the prospects ot
five of these pupils moving elsewhere In
the Immediate future. .
Contractor Wind reported that the new
school building at Cut-Off was enclosed.
Werner's arithmetics , Nos. 2 and 3 , were
adopted for u&o In the schools and It was
decided to purchase 100 of No. 1 as It was
referred to frequently In the footnotes of
the other two.
After allowing the usual grist of bills
the board adjourned.

Chairman Hart reported that a number of
High school graduates had Interested them
selves In the matter of raising funds and
had arranged to start an endless chain , sale-
ing for Eub-jcilptlona cf 25 cento. It was
thought that a considerable sum could bo
raised In this manner and the graduates
wore authorized to proceed with the carryIng -
Ing out cf It ,
At the suggestion of Member Greenshlelds
It was decided to dlstilct the city into four
divisions and the chairman to appoint com
mittees of six for each dlatrht to dispose of
the $1 ribbons. Krnest C. Hart , chairman of
the committee , was unanimously selected as
treasurer.
In addition to selling the ribbons It was
decided to thorough ! ) canvass the city for

once appoint a subcommittee to carry out
this work. It vvaa also announced thnt any

house also pending against Cunningham.
County Attorney Kllpack agreed to the

the young Omaha attorney charged with
subornation of perjury , until next term. At

of robbing n Ilock Island railway contractoi
named Jones of $65 , was arraigned and en
tered a plea ot not guilty.

ns a domestic.

at him with a hatchet and on another oc
casion hit him on the head.

Jess Perry , a young man who has been In
the city jail since his arrest last Thuisday
for Intoxication , developed unmistakable
signs of mental derangement Sunday night
and was removed to St. Bernard's hcspltnl
early Monday morning. His condition Is said
to be dua to the excessive Ubc of strong
drink nnd cigarettes. Until recently ho had
been employed in a local hotel nnd all Sun
day night ho labored under the hallucination
that his cell was nn elevator and the bars
the ropes. With his eyes almost starting
from his head ho tugged at the bars llrst
on ono side of the cell and then on the
other , yelling nt intervals "up" or "down. "
Yesterday morning when his wlfo called to
see him a pitiful scene ensued. In nnswci
to her question If ho did not know licr , he
replied :
"Yes , what of It ? "
"Don't you know me , Jess ? " she ngaln
asked him ,
"Why , certainly I know you. I have seen
you often In Manila , "
Iho young * woman turned nvvay nnd , sob

the Impression that ho was Agulnaldo and
that ho was on hie way from the Philip
pines to call on President McKlnley at
Washington , Ho persisted In nddresnlng
Charley White , the Jailer , as General Otis
and upbraided him for killing so many of
his men Ho said he would certainly make
a complaint to President McKInley Day
Sergeant Slack was addrefiscd by him as

about the war In the Philippines and told
the officers on his way to the hospital that
as coon as ho saw the president he would
fix mattcis so that the American troops
would bo at once withdrawn , nnd he wculd
bo left free to reign miprcmo In the Philip
pines ,
The Indications yesterday were thnt the
young man's mind was completely gone ,
although City Physician Lacy said there was
a chance th.it with proper treatment at the
hospital ho might recover

Davenport Democrat It is worse than
mockery for anyone to say that the people
of Iowa are not doing well. There are no
facts to warrant the Idle statement that
the cloud of misfortune icsts upon any part
of this fair state. Theic Is abundant reason
to rejoice In the sunshine that floods every
one of the ninety-nine counties
The building Improvements thnt are going
forwaid In every city and town are visible
proof of the common prosperity. The length
ening roads of steel , more miles of which
are going down this year In this state than
In any other of all the forty-five , Is evidence
that cannot bo denied. The llnce of farmers'
teams , almost endless , that are carrying
the produce of the fields to market arc a
tangible denial that Iowa Is going Into bank
ruptcy. The stocks of agricultural Imple
ments that are being sold , more of them
than ever ; the great numbers of busy men
nnd women who are more than self-sus
taining ; the activity In the stores of nll
descriptions ; the crowded condition of all
the colleges and schools , the utter Inability
of the railroads to handle the traffic offered
them ; the dropping rates of Interest and
the accumulations of money all point ono
way.
way.The deposits In the state and savings
banks of Iowa have been Increa&lng for
two years. These deposits amount to $28-
000,000 more now than they did In Janu
ary , 1898. This Is not the story told In one
locality , but it Is the fact sworn to by the
directors of more than 400 banking Insti
tutions
This era of good times Is not confined
to Iowa ; It spreads over the country , and
It reaches across bolbjiocdans except In sec
tions where nature has withheld Ha boun
ties. It Is due to moro causes than can bo
enumerated "here " ; but partisan politics is
not one of them.

a view of building a new line south to At

parties Interested have with them a civil en

It is believed that the Chicago & North

company Is dc-slrous of getting an outlet
from Audubon , la , south to St. Joseph ,

that a line of this nature will be built and

The management of the Union Pacific has
adopted a new plan with reference to the
handling of train orders at division points
at which train dispatchers arc stationed. The
train dispatchers are provided with a rcom
by themselves , the dcors of which are always
locked. It has been found that this plan U
a ver > good one , for not c.nly are the dis
patchers alone , but they cin give their en
tire attention to the vvoik of moving trains
"Tho dk'patcherj can do better work , " said
an official today , "and are not so liable to
make mistakes nnd got trains together now
ns they were when the ofllco was open and
filled at times with trainmen and others. "

The scenes of laet winter on the Chejenne
& Northern railroad are being repented ngnln
this jear. Ycstord'iy morning the regular
passenger train from the north was c 01-
polled to send to Chcjcnno for an additional
locomotive to pull the train In , and thld
morning hcavj biiovv , which had partHlly
tilled cuts near Altus hill , dolajr-d the train
for some time In ono particular cut the
train was compelled to bick up nnd tnUe
several runs before being ablu to plow
thiough the deep snow. It Is stated hero
that the Colorado & . Southern , having se
cured addltlouil snow-bucking machinery ,
will pay more attention to the Cheyenne &
Northern line this winter ami , unless nil un
usual amount of snow falls , the road will
doubtless bo kept open during the winter
months.
Are the children growing
nicely ? A little stronger
each month ? A trifle
heavier r That's good.
Or is one of them growing
the other way ? Growing
weaker thinner
, growing ,
growing paler ?
If so , you should try
Scott's Emulsion at once.
'Tis both a food and a
medicine to all delicate
children. It makes them
grow in the right way
taller healthier.
