1 "he commencement eerclsa of the mld
Wli.ter rraduatlne- class ef the high achool,
although comprising but five atudenta, at- I
l rafted aa much Interest aa the regular
graduating exercises at the cloae of the
school year and the large auditorium laat
night contained an audience which taxed i
It seating capacity.
The platform, on which were seated the
fire young womtn graduates, presenting
a pretty picture In black academic gowna
and caps over their white dresaea, the.
members of the Board of Education, fee-'
urty of the high school and those partlcl- ,
' rating In the program, Including Chan- ,
seller Andrews of the Nebraska State'
university, the speaker of the evening, '
waa. tastefully decorated with palma and
ferns, while bunches of red roses, the
: chosen flower of the class, were particularly
conspicuous.
Chaarellor Aisrim' Address.
Mr. Andrews spoke substantially as fol
low; My purpose this evening Is to make a
convincing argument to the effect that all
.parents who can do so ought to give their
. children the completes! education they are
. willing to receive, and that all young peo
ple who can do so ought to take not only
a high achool course, but some college, unl-
hot arguing for my own university or for I
any
other Institution In particular. If I
persuade any who would not otherwise
. can
aa so to press on ana up to tne nigner edu
cational levels 1 do not care where they go
for help. '
Several objections' t trying for higher
education are still In vogue among fairly
Intelligent people. Borne think that colleges
teach simply the classics, mathematics and
similar matters commonly regarded aa dry
and appertaining to the past. Thla Is sn
entire error, the fact being that the cur
riculum of every good Institution of higher
learning now is rich in living studies which
. appertain to the practical life of today.
.Another stricture is that while a college
education may be very good for those in
tending professional careers It Is not worth
while for others. People who reason so re
gard the law, the ministry and medicine
the onlv professions. There are, however,
three other professions worthy of place In
the list teaching, engineering. Journalism.
A liberal education is aa Important for
these as for the older professions. But It
Is still more Important for Intelligent people
at large. The just boast for higher schools
now Is that they seek to make men and
women, being sure that If these are fur
nished in plenty the professions will do very
wall. . ...
- A third count offered against advanced
. study Is that It requires too much money,
' being possible for the wealthy and con
trolled by the -children of the wealthy, but
forbidden to common people's sons and
daughters. This Is another absolute error.
The wealthy set do not give law or tone to
' university society even In the older and
richer centers. In the colleges of this part
of the country either no smart set at all
. nr it la whollv without oower or In
fluence. Every great School Is a democracy.
Character and Information count, mere
money does not.
Pleasing; laaovatlon.
,v A, pleaaint Innovation waa . the closing.
number of the exercises the Illustrated
' reading by the members of the graduating
". class of Tennyson's beautiful "Dream of
- Fair Women." The auditorium was dark-
ened and light from a stereopticon was
thrown upon the part of the stage on which
' the young women were grouped, making
an extremely pretty picture. In connec
tion with this scene Miss Taylor, hidden
from view of the audience, sang In a most
; pleasing manner a aelectlon arranged from
Tennyson's poem and aet to music com
posed by herself..

ment of damages in Harrison county bus
been fllad with County Auditor Atkins ut
liogan. .
The finding of tlie commissioner will un
doubtedly prove u great disiiupointment to
the parties who nle.i claims for damages
a the commissioners have allowed but a
mere fraction of the amounts claimed while
In a majority of the rases they have al
lowed no damages at all.
Not including the Northwestern railroad,
tli claims for damages filed by property
o whets amounted to about flST.ino. Tho
. damages allowed by tho cumniixsloncrk
amount only to a little over tHflfO. The
largest Individual mount allowed Is in
th case of Li. A. Nay, who claimed $ti,G40
and whose damages are apprulst-d at 11,200
, by the commissioners. The other amounts
allowed range from ." to 1760. J. V.
Krasler, administrator, who fllud a claim
for ftf.000 and William Pallon who figured
his damages at $10,000 will receive nothing
If the commissioners' appraisement Is ac
cepted. Northwestern . railroad demanded dam
' ages In the amount of tlOO.Ooo, but at the
Joint meeting of the county boards In Mis-
sourl Vailey last month did not seriously
press this claim to such extent. The com
missioners u their report appraise the
damages which the railroad will suffer at
tax aa follows: Allen creek, r7.!or; Wil
low creek. 18,&78; Boyer river cut off, $14,
601 The amount allowed by th commis
sioners is arrived at from an estimate mado
by the company's engineers of what it will
cost to construct new bridges, culverts,
relay track, etc. This being the esse. It
is understood ' there will be no dispute so
far as the Northwestern railroad is con
cerned over the appraisement.

HUNGARIAN CABINET BEATEN
Kosanth Party Gain Fifty-Eight
Seat from Government at
Recent Election.
defeat of the government at the recent
elections appear td have been complete.
The opposition secured 171 sesta out of a
total of 318 results ao far known. One hun
dred and eighteen of these are members
of the Kossuth party.
The Kossuthlsts gained altogether fifty
eight scats. None of their prominent lead
ers were defeated, while the liberals lost
their foremost champions.
There Is uncertainty regarding who the
new premier will be. If Premier Tlsza
should resign. Francis Kossuth and Count
Apponyl are both Impossible, the first name
for historical and the last for personal
reasons and because the psrty's program
means separation of Hungary from Aus
tria. It Is probable that Count Julius An
drassy will be summoned to form the new
cabinet, but the names of Herr Wekerie.
Former Premier Btell, Count Zlchy and
others are mentioned. It Is an extremely
difficult situation for Emperor Francis Jo
seph, who for years has tried to prevent
such a political event.
The Kossuth party held a meeting to
night and decided to Impeach Premier
Tlssa and Herr Perrzel for alleged viola
tion of the constitution In connection with
the Lex Daniel.
HOW NEWS AFFECTS OFFICERS
Rank and File of Army Doea Not
Knovr of Trouble In Russia.
RUSSIAN HEADQUARTERS, HUAN
MOUNTAIN. Manchuria, Jan. 27. While
the news of the strike disorders and shoot
ing at St. Petersburg and other cltle. has
not permeated the bulk of the rank and
file of the army, it has produced among the
higher officers a feeling of depression and
Indignation that the agitators should seize
a moment when the country is plunged
In a foreign war and when the army Is
about to enter on a decisive campaign to
precipitate disorder and above all endan
ger the supply of munitions by strikes
at the arsenals and outfitting works. The
time to settle family quarrels and internal
problems. It is believed here, Is after the
war clouds have cleared away and not
when the army needa the united aupport
of the country behind It.
A stirring editorial In the Manchurlan
Army Messenger, the official Journal, calls
on the army to perform Its appointed task
regardless of occurrences at home and
thua shame the malcontents into patriot
ism. After commenting on the l'peed with
which news, good or bad, half circled
the globe and reached the army, the -article
goes on: "We face the news as war
riors. However grievous It may be our
conscience Is not clouded. The spirit with
which the aoldiera learn of ills shows that
they look on matters rightly and with
unceasing fortitude and manliness. The
stay-at-homes should understand that the
events now happening in St. Petersburg
and Moscow only cause more trouble by
exciting workmen to disturbance. These
same people not long ago said Russia
should end the war and beg for peace.
Further than this they drive the work
men to strike In order to hamper the
manufacture of munitions of war. They
err greatly, for even if they hinder and
delay the delivery of supplies the Russian
army of 600,000 In the far east, with the
means on hand, will accomplish the given
task. Neither machinations nor uprisings
will stay our work. More than at any
time victory now is necessary to Russia
and victory shall come, no matter what
it costs."
