A somewhat unique entertainment connected with a special excursion party look place this evening at Mitchellvllle. Tho girls of the State Industrial school presented a complete opera before a select audience composed almost exclusively of state offi cials and their families. The opera was written, both words and music, by the su perintendent of the Industrial school, F. P. Fitzgerald. He has made a wonderful suc cess with music at the institution, having organized two good orchestras and devot ing much time to vocal music. In addition to the Industrial work, which has not been neglected.

FEW PEOPLE ASKING FOR AID i Overseer of the Poor Says am her I l.rmm This Tear Thnn In Any . Previous Onea. George T. Miller overseer of the poor, has fewer families on his hands who aro receiving aid from the county this winter than was the case laat year. The number of transients given assistance by the county" ha also been less this winter than last year. The decrease In the number of fam ilies receiving monthly assistance from thr county Is attributed to the fact that all klnda of work was plentiful at gocd wages In Council Bluffa last year and that there has also been,, comparatively speaking, plenty of work for the ordinary laborer during the winter montha. At present. Overseer Miller Is caring for forty-two families, which receive on an average about 112 worth of fuel, groceries and meat each month. The county. In ad dition to furnishing the necessaries of life for them. Is called upon. to pay the rent for about ten families, ejery month. The average rent of the houses occupied by aucb families Is $5. . 8ome families receive fuel only but this j class of the county's wards Is small In ; number. The demand for fuel this winter baa been above the average. This condi tion was due to the Inability of poor people to buy coal In small quantities at any pries and they were forced to call upon the overseer of the poor for assistance. For several years the calls tor aid from transients has been steadily decreasing and Overseer Miller states that the great est, expense the county Is put to In dealtng with thla class of paupers Is In providing transportation. Every precaution Is taken by the overseer to avoid furnishing aid to families the heads of which are able to work, although It Is Impossible, Mr. Miller states, to prevent being taken In some times. As soon, however, as he learns that tha man of the family la able to work If he would, all aid Is shut off. The families receiving ateady aid from the county are those of widows chiefly, the children being In most cases too young to work. In some Instances the 'father of tho family la a cripple and unable to provide for his chil dren Once In a while but not frequently, the overseer Is called upon to furnish tem porary assistance to families where the head of the house Is out of employment for the time being. tilt-Ins; Away Stoves.

The Iowa supreme court decided today that the efforts of the voters of the city of Perry to expand the town failed by rea son of Irregularities In the preliminary proceedings. It appears that at a regular meeting of the council a resolution was passed looking to the cnnexatlon of terri tory. Adjournment was taken three or four times and finally the resolution order ing the election waa passed at a time when both the clerk and mayor were absent and an acting mayor and acting clerk signed the resolution. On this the mayor ordered the election. But the court holds that this is one of the esses where th,' resolu tion should have been submitted to the mayor for his approval, but it was never even submitted to him. A temporary chair man might authenticate a resolution, but not give approval where such approval la essential. The mayor cannot thus escape tho duties of his office, so the court holds. In an opinion by Justice Deemcr, sustain ing tre ruling of Judge Applugate. Those who elected the mayor are entitled to his deliberate Judgment as to the advisability of the proposed action properly and legally expressed, and the other in cm ben of the council should not be allowed to hurry a matter through without giving the mayor time and opportunity as provided by the statute for the exercise of his preroga tives. Any other rule would be fraught with great danger and bo provocative of intolerable mischief. Tho annexation pro ceedlnga . ere therefore declared to have been Illegal.

Word has Just reached here that the Twelfth battalion of Mexican regulars was almost annihilated in a tattle with the Yaquls, whom they were pursuing, after having defeated them In a fight at San Marclal. The regulars were caught in a trap and their retreat was cut off by a second band of whose existence they knew nothing. There were 500 roldiers In the battalion and if tho report of the survivors of the fight who reached San Marclal Is true, a great many of that number were killed. The reports, however, are believed to be exaggerated. According to last previous accounts, the regulars wera In a critical condition, hav ing lost a large number, k'though the casu alties are not known. The Twelfth bat talion haa been stationed for some time at Potam Rio Yaqut. It was made up of soldiers trained to fight the Indians in the bushes and was officered by some of the beet men In the service in Sonora. Claim for Damage Settled. ;.TECUM3EH, Neb., Feb. 3.

The ruling nations of the world are meat eaters, and history records that they always have been. Vegetarians and focd cranks may explain this In any way they choose, but the facts remain that the Americans, English, French, Rusilans and Germans are meat eating nations and they are alao the most energetic and most progressive. The principal food of the heroic Boer soldier known aa Biltong, is a sort of dried beef, affording a great deal of nourishment in a highly concentrated form. The weak races of people are the rice eating Chinese, Hindoos and Siamese, re garded since the dawn of history as non progressive, superstitious and Inferior physically and mentally to the meat eating nations who dominate them. The structure of the teeth plainly Indi cates that human beings should subsist upon a variety of focd meat, fruit and grains, and It. la unhyglenio to confine one's diet to any one of these classes to the exclusion of another.
