OUR i;iUC ATIOXAI. COLUMN. 11 Y 1). M. HUNTEU, CO. BtJl'T. Ou Thursday evening, Sept. 21st, tnoro than thirty persona assembled nt the school homo in school district No. !J, south of In'nvale. There wcro prs nt patronr, officer, teachers and pu pils. All seemed interested in tho ed ucational meeting. Some important subjects pertaining to school work wcro discussed. The meeting was a Busoessas to the purpose for which it was held, and many said their meet ing there was of bcueOt to thcxi. Aftor the meeting tho Superintendent drovo to lied Cloud to as to be there ready to do offioo work the next day, an on Saturday tho first teachers' meeting of the year was to be held at Cowles. The teachers meeting lat Satur day at Cowlei was well attended, al though on the same day a largo Sab bath school picnic was hold in the grova south of town'and two base ball clubs crossed bats in the afternoon, Twcnty-ono teachers and thirteen other persons were preatnt, Prin. J. l. Strader acted as secretary. The topics on the program wcro well dis oussid. The teachers of the first ward of lied Cloud furnished some excel lent music. J. T. Albright, a school officer of Cowles school district, gave quito an intcrcstiag ttlkou the teach ing of patriotism in tho public schools. Mr. Daniol hi. Gurber, teacl.or in dis trict millibar 21, read nn cxcolleut paper on "'Lessons from tho life of Washington." Seme of our teachers wero obliged to be present at the pic nic, which accounts for the absence of some who wcro to opon discussions on soino of tho topics of the program. This oflico is waiting lor blanks. As soon as thoy aro received a supply will be sont to tho officers of tho vari ous districts of-the county, as many qucstious have been naked concerning tho acw law in regard to sending ohildron to the nearest school, wo think best to publish it in this column thiajweek. It is ns follows: ''An act to allow children of school age of their homo district to attend school at a nearer distriot. lie it enacted by the legislature of the stato of Nebraska: Section 1. That where children of school ago are living over one and one half miles from the school houso where they reside, and shall reside a half mile or more nearer to another school house, they may attend at tho school houso nearest to their place of residence. Tho sehool distriot where suoh ohil drcn shall attend school may collect from the school distriot where thoy shall reside, tho share of tho state ap portionment to which such children aro entitled, wliish shall bo collectible as tho county Sapcrintendent shall make public the said apportionment. Section 2. Tho tcachor shall keep a correct record of the abovo pupils, showing their placo of residence."

The way to prevent the robbory ol express trains iu to shoot the robbers. Every train crow should bo taught that it is a part of their duty to shoot on sight any marauder that attempts to board nn engine or express car at night. Tho uncocks that is attending tho train robbing business recently is drawing quito a large number into the business, and tho only way to arrest tho growth of tho industry is to cul tivate tho fashion of shooting the mib creants who go into it, This city, nays the St. Josoph Os teite has sot an example .worthy of oloss imitation. Tho probability is that had tho fellows whonct their death at Roy's llranoh Sunday night dreamed that thoy wero likely to meet the slightest resistance, no ropo would havo been found strong enough to lead them to uho sccno of the attempted robbery. They had read of train rob beries, and the business scemod to of fer such large profits and such smooth sailing that they ncvor thought of ser ious opposition to their demand for nn unconditional surrender. Thoy expect ed to blow open a car with dynamite and to 6tand over the meiscngcr, gun in hand, and compcll him to open the safe. This done, thoy could tnko the contents, firo a few shots ut tho win dows of the coaches to iutimidato tho passengers, and from there on tho worst danger they could reasonably exprdt was a race with tka sheriff. Such had been tho history of nearly all tho train robbers they had ever heard of, and so they cxpecteo the ox ptditiou to Hoy's Rranch to terminate. They did not expect to havo to fight for tho booty, or not ono of them could have been persuaded lo under take its capture. They had no; doubt of winniag an easy victory. Hut things turned out in variance with the rosy experience of tho train robbers thoy had read about. Instead of on joying the terror of the paseongeis aud a triumph over tho trainmen, thoy mot with a reception, the wido publication of which will have a ten doncy to cool tho ardor of the gentry in all parts of tho country.
