COUNCIL
FOR TRAINING OF TEACHERS
Morement to Establish Normal School in
Council Bluffs.
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT PUSHES PLAN
Board of Fdnratloa Kipeets to Be
Able to Lease Old Hlah School for
the Enterprise Iowa Insti
tutions t rowded.
A movement Is on foot to establish In
Council Bluffs a Normal school or college
for the trainlDg of teachers. County Super
intendent O. J. McManus and R. E. Wlatt
and Charles Benson. proprietors of the
Western Iowa college of this city, are aald
to be the persons active in the movement.
The matter was brought Informally to tho
attention of the Board of Education at a
pecial meeting yesterday afternoon, and
It Is said that if the plans of the promoters
succeed a definite proposition will be made
to the board at Its next regular meeting to
lease the old High school building for the
purposes of the Normal college.
The matter came before the board yester
day afternoon, when Secretary Ross was
Instructed to advertise for bids for the re
maining school property which the board
lias been authorized to sell, Including the
old High school, now known aa the Hill
school. It was stated that a proposition to
lease the old High school property would
be submitted to the board at Its next regu
lar meeting by persons interested In estab
lishing a Normal college In thla city. The
a'ntlment of the members present was that
such a proposition should be encouraged In
every way possible, as Its successful ac
complishment would mean much to the city.
There Is, It Is said, a great demand for
additional Normal schools and colleges, aa
throughout Iowa all the state and private
institutions of such a character are over
crowded. The private Normal school In
Ehenandoah baa 800 pupils and It was stated
yesterday that there would be little diffi
culty In securing from 200 to 300 pupils
for such a school here at the outset. The
attendance of 200 pupils. It was said, would
Insure the school being a success finan
cially. Member Hess of the board and his busi
ness partner, F. J. Day, said they were both
willing to assist In the establishment of a
Normal college In Council Bluffs, and sug-
(ested that a company be formed to carry
he plan Into execution. The old High
school building, with little expense, could
be made adaptable for such a purpose and
would accommodate between 400 and 500
pupils.
The board fixed the value of the Woodbury
avenue school property, which the Oreat
Western railroad desires to purchase for
Its right of way, at $3,000. Bida on the re
maining property to be sold will be received
by Secretary Ross up to tbe time of the
next regular meeting of the board.
Treasurer Davis submitted his bond in
the sum of $75,000, furnished by an eastern
bonding company, and It was approved. The
meeting vii called for this especial pur

MONUMENTS FOR IOWA DEAD
House Passes Vieksbnrg Park Bill for
Memorials in the South.
TO INCREASE THE GOVERNOR'S SALARY
Bill Passes lloase for 2.(MM Raise la
Eseratlse's Pay Troops Seeded to
Enforce Health Laws with
Indians.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE8 MOINES, March 26. (Special.) The
senate this afternoon gave up Its time to
consideration of bills which provide for the
Iowa monuments at Vicksburg park, Look
out Mountain and Missionary Ridge, in
memory of the Iowa soldiers burled there.
The Vicksburg bill calls for $150,000 to be
expended on one large state monument
and many others marking the location of
the various companies. It also provides
that only 110,000 shall be used during the
biennial period, which will be barely enough
to commence the work. The plans have al
ready been adopted In full. The bill In
regard to Missionary Ridge provides that
$25,000 shall be expended, but only $3,000
In the present biennial period, and that one
large monument be erected on Lookout
Mountain and two on Missionary Ridge.
This Is In accordance with plans which were
sdopted by a commission several years ago,
but which have not been acted on yet.
When the bills came up on apeclal order
In the house thts afternoon there were
vigorous speeches In relation thereto by
Senators Blanchard, Courtrlght Young of
Washington, Healey and others, after which
the bills were passed.
The senate mutilated the automobile bill
which tbe bouse passed and after so doing
reached the conclusion It would not be con
stitutional anyway and sent it to the Judi
ciary committee. Tbe bill seeks to regulate
the running of automobiles, requires
licenses, limits the speed and otherwise
prevents the use of the machines on high
ways in Iowa.
Considerable time was spent In consid
eration of the bill to adopt the township
system of road supervision, but the bill
was not finished.
A resolution was Introduced by Senator
Lewis to adjourn without day April 9. It
will be acted on tomorrow.
Township Law Publication.
The house today passed a bill to provide
for publication of a book containing all
the laws relating to townships and the
nowers and duties of township officers,
aside from Justices of the peace, and to
orovide for the sale of the same at $1.50
a copy. No such comDllatlon of laws has
erer been provided for.
A bill to establish a department of bac
teriology In connection with the State
Board of Health waa passed. It provides
that a superintendent shall be elected at a
salary of $1,500 a year. The bill also in
creases the annual allowance to the State
Board of Health to $7,500 a year. Instead or
$5,000. It provides that Incidental ex
penses of the board shall be paid for by
ths state.
Governor's Salary Increased.
The house passed a bill to Increase the
salary of the governor of the stste from
$3,000 a year to $5,000. In addition to this
tbe governor receives $500 as a member
of the executive council and $300 for house
. that if this bill becomes a law
he will actually receive compensation to!
the amount of $6,100 a year. The portion
of the bill which provided for an Increase
of the salary of his secretary was elim
inated before passage.
A bill wss passed to provide that county
attorneys shall have the right to appoint
their deputies and the county shall pay ths
same In all counties of the state over 36,000
inhabitants. In smaller counties he may
appoint the deputies, but they shall be
paid only where they do special work. Ths
bill Is to remedy a complaint that where
the boards of supervisors select the depu
ties the county attorney gets no good from
the position, but the deputy becomes sim
ply a counselor for the board and not a
helper In county cases generally.
A bill to give the right to selxe liquors
without a warrant was discussed and sent
to the Judiciary committee.
The house took up a bill to relieve low
Insurance companies from payment of taxei
on business done outside of the state.
There are but two companies affected
seriously, but the bill was not clean and
was defeated.

Representative Walters of Tama. Ia.. ap
pealed to Governor Cummlna late this af
ternoon to send troops to the Tama Indian
reservation to compel the Sac and Fox
Indians to submit to fumigation and other
regulations of tbe State Board of Health.
Acting upon the advice of counsel, the
Indians have locked their blankets, tepees
and other effects In a building, which they
carefully guard. Mr. Walters says the In
dians are In an ugly mood.
Miners Cannot Agree.
Unless the unforseen transpires every
miner In Iowa will walk out at midnight
March SI. and a strike will be Instituted
tbe consequences of which cannot be fore
told. At the Joint conference of the miners
and operators this morning the issues were
squarely drawn and the operators formally
announced that they will not agree to era
ploy shot flrers nor will they agree to tbi
uniform day wage scale demanded. Presi
dent Reese, in behalf of tbe Mine Workers,
asked tbe operators it tbey would arbitrate
the differences. The operators flatly re
fused. The Joint conference adjourned to
reassemble at 2 o'clock for final action and
the miners immediately went into aecret
session to determine upon a course to pur
sue. As previously outlined by President
Reese, failure to reach agreement will op
erate to effect a general walkout next Mon
day night at the expiration of last year's
agreement. At the close no agreement hal
been reached and the miners had not re
ceded. 1

Thursday morning of the plea In abate
ment filed by the attorneys for George and

Viola All'n
Some half dozen or more years ago Viola
Allen graced an Omaha theater with her
presence, not as a star, but as leading
woman of Mr. Frohman's Empire stock
company. So well remembered Is she that
nothing but standing room, and little of
that, waa left unoccupied at Boyd's theater
last night. What should be even more
pleasing to Miss Allen than tbe enthusiastic
reception she received at Its hands Is the
fact that a more representative audience
has not assembled In the theater before
during the present season, and It Is doubt
ful If a more thoroughly satisfied one has
left It.
"In the Palace of the King" Is a most
effective pictorial romantic drama divided
Into a half dozen scenes, rather than acts,
each of which presents a different picture
of the Interior of the palace of Phillip II
of Spain. The sensational appeal of "The
Christian" has not of course been repeated
by the new book play of Miss Allen's, yet
her host of admirers cannot help but be
pleased with the predominant display of
her personality which characterizes the
piece throughout Its six tableaux, and her
courtship scenes as Dona Maria Dolores de
Mendoza, with Don John of Austria are
certainly charming.
Those who saw her In "The Christian"
felt as though Glory Quayle were treating
us to a masquerade In the Castlllan court
lady's costumes. There are many of the
same mannerisms, the same saucy llttlo
shake of the head, the same half mannish
accents In the emphatic lines, the same
Individuality and temperament as marked
her portrayal of the Hall Calne heroine.
Viola Allen's art Is hardly to be meas
ured by commonly accepted standards,
for the reason that she does' nothing that
can be measured by rules. We who knew
chiefly by the Impressions left after seeing
her In "Sowing the Wind," Liberty Hall,"
were surprised last night to note the
breadth and depth she has attained. It
is hardly fair to say "height," for MIbs
Allen does not soar. In. this respect she
Is doubly pleasing. She meets her
scenes with a natural assumption

XaXllw&sQ, the great progress in medi

after all. The doctors have not been able to improve
on many of the simple old remedies used during the last

strength, against and overthrowing plot
ters who would have succeeded maybe
against one less Innocent and honest. MIfs
Allen's art lies In her ability to Interpret
the most dlffli iilt of feminine roles, that of
the Innocene.
Miss Allen is fortunate tn being sur
rounded with a company of uniform ex
cellence. Of the characters In the play
only a few stand out from the conventional
melodrama types. The cardinal Is a colorful
but not novfl figure. Walter Hitchcock,
who enacts the role, adds strength to It
by his splendid ability The king's part
ss enacted by W. E. Bonney. Is a strong
role In its sensationally melodramatic kind.
But the unjque character of all Is that of the
court dwarf, sarcastically called Adonis.
The part is that of a minor Bertucclo.
the half-pathetic hunrhback. a poor little
Punchenello, who cannot forget the tortures
of the rack that deformed him. weaves it
self through the various scenes like a
curious thread of scarlet. His humor is
sharp and grim, born of his pain, and sen
timent transfigures his hunch and fool's
bauble into something pitiable and touch
ing. Arthur T. Hoyt, who plays the part
has much to do with making it what it
Is. one of the most interesting characters
of the piece, and his efforts can hardly help
but make a reputation for him as a com
petent character actor. William Pascoe Is
quite an Ideal Don John of Austria and his
portrayal of the handsome and fascinating
brother of Phillip II of Spain is marked
by a standard of excellence reached by
few leading men that come this way.
The production Is one of the best of Its
kind seen here this season.
The engagement closes with a special
matinee this afternoon and a performance
this evening.
