(From a Staff Correspondent.)
nra unlNRfl. Is.. Sent. 4. (Special.)
State Superintendent J. F. RlgB Is making
special efforts to secure a much larger
school enumeration this year man ever
hfnri. . Tbe taklrur of the school census
under direction of the school board secre
taries In now under war in all districts
ot the state. ' The semi-annual apportion
ment of interest on the permanent school
fund will be made tomorrow by the state
auditor and this Is based on the school
population of the state. The Bum Dis
tributed is 1107.000 and this goes to the
school, districts twice a year. It represents
the Interest on about 86,000,000 which the
state has loaned out through the counties.
The state superintendent is convinced mat,
.hnnt nfflf-.n have never made an
accurate school census and that the school
population of the state Is larger than naa
heen rnnorted the oast few years. In fact.
If the reports are correct there has. been
a decrease In the number or cnuaren oi
nhnni a. . in 1890 there were reported
727,000 persons of school age in Iowa and
in 1901 the number had gone up w ,ww,
but tha renorta for last year showed only
721.000. This Is manifestly due to imper
fect enumeration, and the state superin
tendent is making an extra effort to secure
a more perfect census this year.
Glynden wants a Fardoa.
It Is learned that in Hardin and Grundy
counties petitions are In circulation for
signatures In favor of the pardon of Wil
liam P. Glynden, a life convict in the state
penitentiary at Fort Madison, , and that
many persons are signing the petitions. At
the same time there is, opposition among
those familiar with the crime. Qlylden
waa convicted of the murder of a. German
girl on the publlo highway, the evtdenoe
being entirely circumstantial and much of
it material furnished voluntarily by Glyn
den himself. He has been in the peni
tentiary now nearly thirty years. His case
was considered by .the last legislature,, but
the legislature was determined that
there should be very little pardoning done
and the case received scant courtesy.
Complain of Laek of Powder.
In explanation of the low scores made
by the members of the Iowa rifle team
sent to the national rifle competition1 at
Fort Riley whero the Iowa team was fif
teenth in the list, officers who were mem
bers of the team assert that the fault lies
with the adjutant general's office, which
has refused to allow the companies to
secure a sufficient amount of ammunition
to engage properly In r practice. Officers
Insist that they were promised 6,000 rounds
of ammunition for the season's practice,
but have not secured it. At headquarters
It is stated that companies have been al
lowed a sufficient amount of ' ammunition
for practice and that the rifle practice in
the state is reasonably good.
Mack Illegal Flsblag. -'
State Game Warden Lincoln reports that
In all parts of the state' there has been
much Illegal fishing this year and that It
haa been found impossible with the limited
funds at hand to employ game wardens
to properly patrol the streams of the state
and prevent seining. This Is 'largely due
to the fact that there has been better fish
ing in the Iowa rivers this year than usual.
In the Des Moines river largo numbers of
fish have come up from below because of
the destruction ot the- dam at ' Bonaparte.
The state and United States fish commis
sions have both been placing millions of
fish in the interior rivers of the state, with
the result that they are now very well
stocked.
' Labor Day la Iowa.
While Labor day will be generally cele
brated in Iowa wherever the labor organ
isations are strong, there ' will be less

places the day will be celebrated by out

and games and only local speakers. If, any.
There will be no Imported speakers at the
celebration In Des Moines, which will be
held on the state fair grounds. A. L.

Raising the Bnckleberry.
Experiments made this year by garden
ers on Muscatine Island, In the Mississippi,
near Muscatine, tend to show that the
garden huckleberry may become a valu
able garden crop there. John Mlttlman,
an Island farmer, has been growing the
berry, which has heretofore, not been given
a trial In Iowa, and he has been very
successful with a number of bushes on
which a good crop of the berries ' was
ripened. ,

The owners of the Muscatine North
South railroad, in eastern Iowa, are having
a hard time with the property, it connects
Muscatine with .Davenport and has been
operated under leases . to other systems.
The road went bankrupt and the persons
who foreclosed have been trying to get
their money out. The road was up at
auction and no bidders appeared. An ef
fort was made to sell it to the Milwaukee
company and this failed. The Clinton
Davenport Interurban line considered a
proposition to take It over, but it is an
nounced this deal will not be made.' In
fact, the road cannot be sold at any price.
