Klsa Caaaas a Commotion..
A scandal that ha just bursted over th
llttla city of Firth, In tl'ls county, com
pletely enveloped, George R MacDona.d,
principal of the achool there, forced h s
retirement by tha school board, may cause
the retirement of Mr a. Mac Donald, tha
teacher of thti Intermediate department
and has caused the utter humiliation of
Miss Grace Champion, teacher of tha pri
mary dtpartment.
Though tha incident occurred tha first
of the; week, llttla information concerning
It has been 'given to the public outside of
Firths In a complilnt filed with the village
school board by MUs Champion ih
charged that Prof. MacPonald took liber
ties with her to the extent that ha forcibly
put hi arms around her and forcibly
kissed her. Thla occurred In the school
building In which Mrs. 'MacPonald la alsj
a teacher, after the pupils had been dis
missed for the day.
As a parting ahot at hla unwilling vic
tim, ao Miss Champion reported, Prof.
MacDonald said that It she told oa him
that ha would force her retirement from
the achool and Influence County Superin
tendent Bowman to reveke her cettlflcate
to teach. Fearing that If tha matter be
came public she might not only lose her
position, but that aha would be given much
publicity, If not disgraced. Miss Champion
for soma tlma did not report to tha bord.
She tld some of her intlmats trlends, how
ever, and these Intimate iriands 414 ether
intimate friend, and like a prai.le lira the
news spread over the village and there
waa great Indignation. Miss Champion
then reported to tha board and filed her
charges against MacPonald. A called moot
ing pf the board followed and the piofasser
waa forced to resign.
Now' thin, oe tha story goaj, : Mrs, Mae
Donald, wife of the professor,- who teaches
tna 'Intermediate department, la very much
wrought up over tha affair and aha haa
served notice that she and Miss Champion
camot te-.ch in the sane building and that

the high school standard.

problem of whether or not a town of 1,00-J

that If an adequate levy could be produced

maintained below and three In the high
school it might be advisable.

manner: Before handing a ballot to tha

MORE lOAR THAN KVKR BEFORIg
Factor? at Ames Making; Kew Record
This Season.
FREMONT, Neb., Oet. Zl.-(Spcla.)-The
Standard Beet Sugar company, at Leavitt,
wlUxaake more sugar this season than In
any previous year, and on account of tha
btgh tvst of th beets, at a (ess expenss
than In previous years. It Is estimated
thst 0,000 tons will go through before tha
season snds, snd 6,(00 tons of sugar manu
factured. The beets are testing an aver
age cf IS per cent and from eight and one
half to flint ton" to tha acre. The com
pany pays a flat price this year, $4.75 and
ffi.SS, th latter for ailoed beets. All the
beets raised around here are delivered di
rect to the factory, but soma from tha
western country will be siloed and deliv
ered In December. Last night 288 tons were
run through the factory, which Is above tbs
average, wh'ch is about 600 tons for each
twentyrfour houra. This average cannot
be maintained, as tbs factory has to par
tially shut down for a "clean-up" once In
ten days.
Tbs company has succeeded In saving a
higher percentage of sugar this season, the
estimated amount being better than last
yaar, which was K1H pounds of granulated
sugar per ton. - The first season It was only
m. , This year it will probably reach 9tf.
and as the expenss of operation will be less j
on account ot tha h'Bh percentage of sugar,
the net profit per ton will be much larger
than in toy previous sessoa. Tha amount
paid out for beets will be not far from
IM.V. It la thought that tha factory will
finish Its run shortly after New Year's,
depending on th number of frosen beets it
will have to handle.
