Teaching Is only a large business In pro

Kind. Its province Is easily overestimated.
Its field of activity Is only the reasonable
and the possible. It- remains for the
teacher to dignify the business. It cannot
do It Itself. Teaching cannot confer these
powers. It only gives encouragement, ad
vice,' sympathy, direction. Schools cannot
give talent, bestow gifts, guarantee char
acters, as they are only opportunities and
privileges.
But there are gTeater things than these
formal elements, much lauded and over
estimated. The greatest things In this
world are not methods, but men: the lar

REPORT ON THE STATE INSTITUTIONS
Fonrteen-Tear-OH Girl Disappears

Des Moines Under Myste
rlons Clrcnm stances.
.(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Oct. 23. (Special.) An In
quiry Is being made by members of the
State Board of Medical Examiners Into the
status of the case of Dr. J. W. Crofford of
Decatur county, who last week secured a
new trial from a twenty-year sentence for
murder. He was convicted of causing the
death of Maud Stone at his sanitarium at
Lamonl. After his conviction the state
board revoked his certificate to practice.
Then when he had appealed and had given
an appeal bond It was insisted by his at
torneys that the board had no right to
hold this up against him and ho was en
titled to continue In the practice of medi
cine. But the board found that the doctor
had once been under accusation of a orlme
In Missouri and on this ground his certifi
cate was kept In a state of suspense. Now
that he has a new trial granted he Is try
ing to secure a certificate again. But In
the meantime he has been engaged In the
practice of medicine without restraint.
Inquiry shows that he hae such political
influence In the county that officials are
reluctant to prosecute him or prevent his
practice. The case la one that has been
before the courts for nearly two years and
there are several matters Involved that
have set precedents for the action of the
state board and the courts. He will be
given a new trial at the next term of
court, if it is deemed advisable to further
prosecute.

Mystery of aa Klopeaaent.
The police force Is Investigating a mys
terious disappearance. The 14-year-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Barlow, living
north of Des Moines, has disappeared and
it Is supposed she eloped with a man totally
unknown to her relatives or friends. She
Is a foster daughter of the farmer and
her name Is Ooldle Prior. They claim to
know nothing of the reason for her going
away and say that she was' seen to, get
Into a buggy with a, strange man and
drive away. No clue to her whereabout
has been disclosed and there Is nothing to
indicate what it means.
Political Mnddle Fixed Vp.
It 1 learned that the political muddle
In the Bremer-Butler senatorial district
is about to be cleared up and that
the senatorial conven
called together again
that they will make
a nomination again. They will meet at
Bhell Rock on Monday and try. to decide
what is best to be done. There is much
bitterness felt in the district over the at
tempt to secure the nomination of a re
publican candidate for senator by treach
ery or bribery and It la regarded as Im
probable that a republican can now be
elected. But they will secure a candidate
and have his name placed upon the ticket.
Charter Cities and Taxes.
In the city, of Cedar Rapid Important
I.I A. " . -
litigation nas oeen commenced, the pur
pose of which is to compel railroad com
panics to pay taxes on a full valuation
of their property instead of a one-fourth
valuation. In charter cltlea of Iowa,
ot wnicn cedar Rapids 1 one, the
city taxes are levied on a 'full valu
ation of the property and not as the
state and county taxes. It I now
claimed that by allowing th rail
roaa companies to pay taxes In th
charter citie on a one-fourth valuation
or less, the charter cities have been de
prived of a vast amount of taxes.
