The pupils were divided into three groups, pupils of the fourth grade comprising the first group, those of the fifth and sixth grades the second and those of tha seventh and eighth grades the third. Tha compoeltlone of . the following have been selected as the best: First group, Wil liam O. Tyler of the Third Street school; aecond group, George Booth of the Wash ington avenue school.

BELIEVED TO BE WORK OF LOCAL TALENT Postmaster Had Taksi Six Hundred Dollars Home with Him the liven ing Before, Fearlna- to Leave It la the Safe. The postofflce safe In the geheral store of Williams & Barnes at Weton was blown open Tuesday night and robbed of 146 and a number of valuable papers. Rob ert T. W'lUlams Is postmaster and conducts the poatofllca a portion of his general store. The papers, Including a check for 1126, which were taken from the safe, were found yesterday morning In the lumber yard adjoining tha tore where the thief had either dropped or thrown them. Indications are that the robber was committed by one man who Is thought to live In Weston or the Immediate vicinity, and who was well acquainted with the premises. Postmaster Williams sold money orders Tuesday to the amount of nearly 1700 and this was, it is believed, known to the thief, who undoubtedly expected to make a big haul, but was disappointed as Mr. Williams took G0O in bills home with him. The firm's safe In .the other portion of the atore, which contained between $rsO and 1360 was not touched. The Job was evidently that of an Bmateur cracksman, as he was unprovided with tools except those he secured from the hardware stock in the store aud steel chlselB which he procured from a black smith's shop nearby. Even the gunpowder with which the safe door was blown off J was taken from the store stock. Robber Takes His Time. With a brace and drills taken from the stock In tho general store the thief drilled a hole In the top of the safe and then Inserted the gunpowder. The cracksman, whoever he was, evidently went at his work leisurely and deliberately, as the drill he used broke at the point and one of the large flies taken from the black smith's shop was used to sharpen It again. In order to sr.uffle the sound of the ex plosion the thief , covered the safe with a number of mall sacks, which were found scattered over the floor, many of them bearing marks of the gunpowder, show ing the use they had been put to. The fellow secured an entrance to the building by breaking in a panel of the back door but his footprints outside the building showed that he made his exit by one of the side Windows. Postmaster Williams lives within about 100 feet of tha store, but heard nothing of the explosion. He was unaware of the safe being blown until he went yesterday morning to open the place' for the day's business. The store was full of smoke and at first Mr, Williams thought it was on fire, but Investigation at once disclosed the fact that the sa,fQ'1n :, the postofflce end of the building toad feeen blown open. Postmaster Williams1 a't once telephoned Postmaster Hazelton, who immediately notified tha Postofflce "tibpartnient. The sheriff's office was. notified and Deputy Sheriff Woolman and Constable Lee Al bert! went, at once to. Wjeston. Tracka leading from the building led the officers to believe that but one man per petrated the ' robbery. These tracks were followed for about two miles out of Weston to some heavy timber, where it Is supposed the thief rested for some time and then doubled back towards Weston) the tracks being lost about half a mile outside the town. The. fact that the thief retraced his steps to Weston makes the. officers believe that the robbery was- the work of local talent. 1 Hafer sells lunmber. Catch tha idea? AGREE OJt THE LIBRARY CONTRACT BnlldlnsT to Be Completed by . Sep tember ltt, 10O6. .. .

At Mr. Cullen's request a clause waa inserted In the contract per mitting an extension, of tha time for com pleting tha building In tha event of tha work being stopped or delayed by a atrlka. It waa also at Mr. Cullen's suggestion that tha time for completing the building waa extended from April 1, as originally pro vided for in tha contract, to September 15.

Mr. Wal ton Is president of the asoclation and has been for some years. The boundary lines of the association are: Starting at Carroll, la., thence east to Missouri Valley, north to Sergeant Bluffs, thence east via Mo vllle line to Carroll, including all towns in said circuit. The tournament has been very successful so far, and as the mem bers are all volunteers there is a keen rivalry between the different towns aa to the merits of the respective teams. Last year, at ' Carroll, Onawa and Bchaller tied on the big association race. This tie will be decided at Schaller and the team winning will receive credit for two years Any team winning tha association race for three years successively will be allowed to hold the championship belt forever, and no member shall be allowed to compete for two years thereafter.

But probably the most characteristic fea ture Is aa immense Austrian bent wood arch that has been constructed as a grand entryway and embellished with two paint ings by Prof. Kolonian Moser. Notwithstanding the gorgeous attractive ness of tha entire exhibit it is stated that the decorations do not meet with the full expectations of the Austrian commission, and the matter is being officially taken up In a report made by Executive Commit sloner Charles M.

The results, however, did not meet the expectations of the cxecu tive commission, it is stated, nnd many conferences have been held with a view to bettering the display and making It accord with the plana originally outlined before tha opening day, but It was Anally deemed best to dispense with any delay and take up tha matter after the exhibit had been opened.
