If n 1 1 of I.cnrnliiR,
The heavy rain last evening prevented
many from attending the format opening
of the now High school building and less
than 200 people were present at the exer
cises. Most of tboso reached the building
before tho rain. The exorcises were also
delayed, as several on tho program were
unable to reach tho school until tho rain
subsided somewhat. Those gathered at the
school took advantage of the delay to In
spect the building under tho guidance of
tho members of tho faculty. 'The building
wan thrown open to tho public- during the
afternoon and 100 persons visited it.
The exercises wore held In the handsome
auditorium, tho massive chandeliers with
their numorous electric lights showing It
off to advantage. On tho stage, which was
decorated with carnations nnd roses, were
l'rcsldcnt Hcs and B. M, Sargent of tho
Board of Education, Superintendent Clifford,
J. K.' Cooper, S. 1 Henry, William Moore,
I R. Bridcnstoln, former school directors;
Itov. W. J. Calfeo, E. P. Schoentgcn, archi
tect; flcorge Hughes,1 tho contractor who
built tho school, and tho speakers, Victor
E. Bender and Emmet Tlnley.
Tho exercises opened with a duet by
Mipses Ellis nnd Porttrfleld, followed by
the Invocation by Rev. W, J. Calfce, pastor
of Broadway Methodist church. Then Con
tractor Hughes, with a neat speech, pro
sonted tho keys of tho building to Archi
tect Schoentgcn, who in turn handed them
to President Hess on behalf of tho Board
of Education. President Hess, In accept
ing the keys, spoke of the difficulties tho
board had encountered in getting tho High
school built and paid a compliment to both
tho contractor and the architect. Ho read
a letter from Jacob Sims, who was to
speak, regretting his Inability to bo pres
ent, having been called to Monona county
on urgent business.
Miss Portcrflcld entertained tho audlcnco
with a vocal number and was obliged to
respond to nn encore. Superintendent
Clifford, who spoke on "Our High School,"
laid special stross on the meaning of "our,"
saying that the school belonged to tbo en
tiro community and that to mnko it what
It should be, not only tho parents of the
pupils, but every citizen of Council Bluffs
should give It th'lr hearty co-opcratlon. He
told of tho work being accomplished In
tho school and spoke of tho graduates who
were making their mark In the eastern
colleges and universities. The building, he
said, was not gaudy, but had been built on
the utilitarian plan.
Emmet Tlnley spoke" for the alumni' of
tho High school and In maklug comparisons
said that when be waa graduated tho en
tire enrollment of the High school was only
eighty, whereas today closo upon 300 pu
pils gather within the walls of tho new
building. He complimented the Board of
Education on having eroded such a build
ing nnd said It was due to the Integrity
of tho directors, tho contractor and the
architects that the district now owned such
a building.
Following Mr. Tlnley a quartet, com
posed of Mrs. Welch. Miss Worlcy, W. B.
Rlgdon and C. W. Coker, sang and Victor
E. Bender. In a humorous strain, told of
"Our Neighbors." The exercises were
brought to a close by tho singing of "Amer
ica" by tbo audience.

court on behalf of J, T. Hart In the matter
of the Thomas Officer estate, In respect
to the course to be pursued by the admin
istrator, Charles Officer, regnrdlng the Colo
rado mining property. Hart Is Indebted
to the Officer estate $10(5.000, socured by a
mortgage on the property of the Persey
Chestor Mining company and by stock hold
by Hart In that company. Hart desires to
secure a five-year lease of all properties
of the Porsey-Chester company, subject to
tho lease hold by tho Delaware company of
tho Mabel claim, which has two years to
run. Ho proposes, If given such a lease,
not only to pay the royalty, but also to
turn over 50 per cent of tho earnings In
liquidation of bis Indebtedness. From
statements made by counsel to the court
Mr. Harl is of the opinion that If given
this lease he can liquidate his Indebtedness
to the estnte without difficulty within tho
life of the lease.
Judge Green declined to make any order
in the matter, but will take It up on the
second day of the November term, when

HER TRUSTEE AND TEACHER GIVE REPORT
Latter Nnys the Girl Improves Her
Opportunity nnd ltn Become
Ilxpcrt In Mnny law
ful Arts.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MUINES, Oct. 30. (Special.) The
annual report of Bernard Murphy, trustee
of the I.lnnlc llnguewood fund, wns filed
with the governor today as required, by
law. The report shows tho manner in
which the appropriation made by the leg
islature has been expended and there le
appended the report of Miss Dora McDon
ald, tencner of the blind nnd deaf girl.
Miss llnguewood has been under the tute
lage of Miss McDonald for several years,
first In tho blind school at Vinton and now
at Gary, S. I)., whero Miss McDonald Is
in charge of the South Dakota State Blind
school. The part of tho report most In
teresting Is that In which Is related the
progress made by Miss Haguowood In her
studies and work. In her report tho
teacher says;
Llnne'n dxt.erlly along manual lines line
been often mentioned. Her lovo for tho
feminine arts Is deeply rooted In her nuturo
and serves to 1111 each vacant hour with
never ending plcas.irc. This nblllty has
been cnlled Into activity In tho Institution
printing oirice, where sho has taken llrst
honors ns nn operator of the stereotype
maker. All Llnnle's natural characteris
tics urn lure called Into activity. She is
not cnlled upon to depart from the well
known path, and lin writes with nn nssur
auco born of conscious power. Proof rend
ing nnd binding make Llnnlo a valuable
ncslstnnt In tho printing otflce, while it
opens an avenue ot employment that
mnkes hur future Independent in a llnnnclnl
wny.
Her work In mathematics hns been a
continuation of the work done In other
yenrs. Sho still considers It n useless study,
but has bravely determined to master it.
The work has In this wny become n
valuable, factor In her training. Through
It she hns learned to control nn Impatient
temper, and la fast gaining a knowledge of
the every day occupations of mankind. This
lack of general Information, which comes
to thu normal child by unconscious obser
vation, has been ono of Llnnle's most
serious difficulties. In the study of mathe
matics it makes the nppllcatlon of num
bers to tnnterlnl things useless nnd there
for.) voxlng. Notwithstanding these con
ditions her work along this lino has been
very snttsfactory.
To understand tho work done In language
It Is nececsary to consider Llnnle'R untural
characteristics. She Is methodical, pains
taking, accurate and Intensely practical.
Jler composition Is clear, concise and to
the point. Lunguago Is a conveyance, of
thought nnd her thoughts nre nrranged as
her mnterlnl belongings nre arranged. They
occupy ns little spnee iih possible, with no
thought for beauty of expression. We nre
trusting that Llnnle's appreciation of nil
that Is beautiful will come to her rescue In
this particular, nnd that she may be In
duced to avoid sacrlllclng beauty for the
snko of accuracy.
In concluding his report to tho governor
Mr. Murphy says:
Llnnle has long desired an opportunity of
expressing her thanks to the people of
Iowa for tho priceless gift of understand
ing .whlrlr has been made possible for her
nnd I bpg to close my report with her
words: ' v
"I wnnt to thHUktJhp Iown people for
sending me to schonl I like my work very
much and want to be educated. I am happv
every day when I'rinr'slhdylng nnd I wnnt
to learn how to control myself and to do
my work well." ,,
Completed the Tleket.
The secretary of state today certified to
the auditor of Johnson county the name of
O. R. Hall as republican candidate for
member of the house of representatives.
His name had been sent In by the repub
lican county committee to fill the vacancy
caused by the withdrawal of M. A. Clapp.
who had been nominated at the county
convention. This completes tbe republican
ticket In Johnson county. Judge Wade hav
ing issued nn order directing the county
auditor to placo on tho bnllot the names,
of the county nominees, on the ground that
tho law permits filings at this time.
