The pupils were divided into three groups,

grades the second and those of tha
seventh and eighth grades the third.
Tha compoeltlone of . the following have

P0ST0FF1CE SAFE ROBBED
Thief Only Swurai Farty-8ix Dollar! in
Payment for Hit Trouble.
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.

which .will hold its ninth annual tourna
ment at Schaller, la., June 15. Mr. Wal

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. Onawa won the as
sociation races for several years and re
ceived the championship belt, and were
then barred for two years. Thla year no

ST. LOUIS, May 18. The Austrian aec
tiou In the south wing of the palace o
manufactures was formally opened, the dis
play embracing some of the most elaborate
works In dlflerent parts shown at the ex
position. There is a magnificent display of
porcelain of Dux and Carlsbad embodying
the moat delicate workmanship and color
ing, and furniture Inlaid with enamel In
this collection being the so-called "Na
poleon Bonaparte table," showing the era
pcror's portrait In the center dune In en

enamel, of all the famous women of bla
time.
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. Rosenthal to the Aus
trian minister of Commerce,
Tha arrangement of the exhibit and the
decorations were In tha charge of Imperial
Building Commissioner Privy Councillor
Baumann. After he had completed his work
It waa stated today he departed for Call

Baron von Stlbrat. He returned across the
continent to New York and sailed yester

that it has been made the subject of a spe

The Austrian government appropriated
82,000 kroner for Its display and this amount
was fully expended. 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.
