The following suggestions were made bo
fore an Iowa audience of mothers recently
by an authority on literature for children
and Is worthy of the consideration of other
mothers:
We have to have all kinds of books to
mert all kinds of demands, for we cannot
give to a boy who hes never read anything
hut Nick Carter, for Instance, and who
romea to the library for the first time to
find something Interesting to read. "Ivan
roe" or even "Oliver Twist," as full of
excitement as It Is, he simply would not
know what the words even meant, not to
mention the wonderful word pictures. And
so your boy or lrl Is constantly havln
these commonplace books facing him from
our shelves, and as they are easy to get
and very eaey and pleasant to road, there
Is no qur-stlon but that they will be chosen
v almost unybody If left to his own sweet
will.
But the boy's rending Is not such a prob
lem, It seems to me, as that of your girls.
Vor the boy's reading Is of an active na
ture, and while they are lowering their
mental standards t Its overdoing, still It
does not afTect their everyday life as does
this constant demand of girls for stories
about girls. Olrls In boarding schools, girls
who take the place In the family which In
real life Is considered the prlvlrge of the
mother, girls 'who decide such difficult
problems when they should be leading a
pat u r nl girlish life. In other words, boys'
books take them out of themselves; girls'
books lead them Into, themselves, and nc.lon
la much better for, a growing girl than ln
troapectlon. don't you think? 'It doesn't
pay to think too much about being so good
and doing such grand and noble acts, espe
cially when the grand and noble acts nre
not verv grand and noble after all. The
whole standard of Ideals In tho majority of
the "books for girls" Is out of perspective
to real life. I wish more girls would read
some good boys' books once In a while.

should have a chance to use them. Some
ladles are very thoughtless about the way
they march along two or three abreast and
crowd people off the walk. School chil

worst offenders. The other day I met three

LINCOLN. Nov. 14 (Special TelegTam)
-Etock sent from western Nebraska to
eastern Nebraska markets must be sub
ject to the same regulations as stock In
transit on Interstate business. New regu
lations today decided upon by Governor
Sheldon will go Into effect on December 1.
The quarantine Is what has been demanded
by live stock interests for some time as
a preventive against the spread of
cables and other diseases of cattle. Gov
ernor Sheldon has not Issued the formal
ordsr of quarantine but he has decided
that stock ahlpments in the state from
western Nebraska shall be subject to the
same regulations as the government im
poses on stock shipped between states.
The government inspector will be made
deputy state Inspectors and will co
operate with the state officers. The
movement Is of utmost Import to cattle
Interests. The spread of disease In recent
months has arouaed stockmen to action.
BurllotrtON Cora Rate.
The Burlington road applied to the
railroad commission today for permis
sion to put in force rates on corn fifteen
and twenty per cent lower than exist nt
present In the Republican valley. The
step Is taken as a measure of relief to
farmers who have Insufficient corn for
feeding purposes. It Is the especial under
standing that the proposed rate shall not
be used as a basis for future complaint on
the part of shippers but that It Is done to
assist the people of the Republican valley.

Executive Mansion Sold.
Governor George L. Sheldon was notified
today that the executive mansion had been
sold for the delinquent taxes of 1899 and un
less the taxes and costs were paid, a tax
deed would be Issued according to law. The
taxes amounted to 1332.64 and the Interest
and cost to $83.14. The mansion was pur
chased In June, 1899 by the state from D.
E, Thompson, United States ambassador
to Mexico, for ICO.000.
McBrlen Gets In the Clear.
Mrs. McBrlen will no more, help her
husband perform his office work. Super
intendent McBrlen said so today and in
addition he made public the following
explanation of her work for the state in
the past: "In carrying out the provisions
of the new certification law, It has been
difficult to figure accurately on the regu
lar help necessary. Some months we have
not over 3,000 answer papers. In other
months we have from 12,000 to 16,000
papers. We have tried to do the work
from month to month with as small a
force as possible. Our office force comes
as early, stays as late, and works as hard
as that of any other office in the state
house.
"During those months when the work
Would not warrant an extra examiner,
and In those months when we had not
figured on sufficient help, Mrs. McBrlen
has assisted in reading and marking
answer papers submitted by teachers on
their examination for certificates. She
has done this as an acoemmodation to tho
olflce. It would have cost the state at
least B0 per cent more for the work she
has done If I had kept some one on a
regular salary to do It. She has been
paid by the paper, for the actual number
of papers read and marked. She did more
of this work during my first term than
she haa done during my second term.
As to her doing this work at home, I
will say that all readers do practically
all of fhelr reading and marking of
answer "papers at home, for the reason
that we have no office room suitable for
uch work. To read and mark answer
papers with proper care and Judgment
the examiner must be free from all dis
turbance so common in every public
office.
From first to last Mrs. McBrlen has not
received on an average over $30 per
month. While It will cost the state prob
ably twice this amount to hold as ef
ficient help at command, I believe it best
to do so. Mrs. McBrlen will do no more
work for the state."
Pay for High School Attendance.
In a letter to Principal Waterhouse of
Omaha, Stat Superintendent McBrlen ex
plained his position regarding tho country
attendance under the high school law. The
letter follows:
Yours of the 12th Inst, received. I have
not yet made a written ruling on the ques
tion raised In your letter. I stated at the
Superintendents' and Principals' associa
tion, when the free high school law was
under discussion, thst the prevailing rule
among the public schools of the I'nlted
Statea governing attendance would be the
rule to follow In counting the time nonres
ident pupils attend under our free high
school law. As I understand It, the pre
vailing rule governing attendance among
the public schools of the United States Is
this: When a pupil is absent three consecu
tive days he Is dropped from the list of
pupils belonging to the school. That is, st
the end of the fourth day of his absence he
Is no longer counted as belonging to the
school. 1 know this waa the precedent w i
by State Superintendent Corbett in h!a
teacheia' class book and record of pupils'
attendance. Under this plan a pupil could
t present Monday, absent Tuesday.
Wednesday. Thursday, return to theschool
Friday, and be counted sa a pupil belong
ing to the school for thst week. I shall
hold, however, that if a pupil is In attend
ance but ons day in any one week, he shall
be counted aa belonging to the school (or
that week .and that on sch nonresident
attendance the public school district, where

such pupil so attends, will be entitled to
darw the 75 rents per week high school
tuition therefor as provided by law. on
the other hand, 1 shall hold that where a
nonresident pupil- falls to attend a single
day In any one week the public school dis
trict will not be entitled to any tuition for
tnat week a nonattendance.
Your attention Is caned to section ( of
the fre high school law, which re-ads:
"If.very public school district granting
free public high school education to non
resident pupils under the provisions of thlx
act shall receive the sura of 76 cents for
each week's attendance by each non
resident pupil from the public school dis
trict In which the parent or guardian of
such nonresident pupil maintains his legal
residence. Such public school district is
hereby made liable for the payment of such
tuition."
In the light of the law quoted, a more
liberal ruling than I have made herein
would n'ver be austalned by the court In
a test CHse. It is our policy to so rule on
every question coming before us to reach
such a conclusion as will meet the approval
of the court if the case ever brought to
trial. Whether or not this ruling will
promote regular or Irregular attendance on
tho part of nonresident pupils is not for me
to say. I must rule as I find the law upon
me statute noons. ine responsibility ror
regular attendance on the part of nonresl-
dent pupils Is not upon the home district.
it is upon the parent or guardian or such
pupils and tho high achool which they may
attend.
The supreme court of Nebrsska has held
that the Board of Education of a high
school district may adopt and enforce
reasonable rules. A ruHng requiring regu
lar attendance on the part of nonresident
pupils Is a reasonable one and can be en
forced by your Board of Education with
tho same effect as on your resident pupils,
W feaso la Soldier Case,
The legal department of the state Is busy
preparing a defense of the State Board of
Public Lands and Buildings In Its rule that

Notwithstanding this rule is more liberal
than any previous rule adopted by a state

HELPFUL TO THE CATTI.EMETf
Order of Governor Also Aids Soath
Omaha Market.
The annoviiicement from Lincoln to the
effect that Governor Sheldon rr&d Issued
his proclamation placing the whole state
under quarantine inspection for the pur
pose of stamping out the disease of scabbes
In cattle, was received with considerable
satisfaction yesterday afternoon at tho
Live Stock exchange. This proclamation
put Nebraska In line with other western
states, and under the system known as
federal co-operation In quarantine Inspec
tion. The quarantine region of the state
lies west of a line running more or less ir
regularly from Yankton, S. D., to Broken
Bow, Neb., and thence southward into
Kansas. This line is determined from the
fact that cases of acabbes have not been
reported east of that line. Under tho
former conditions all cattle from this sec
tion, whert shipped to the Omaha markets,
came in under quarantine and went .into
the quarantine dlvlHlon whether healthy or
not. This fact worked against the western
shippers for the reason that more or less
prejudice existed against cattle which
came Into the qisarantlne division. Tho gov
ernment Inspectors could not Issue clean
bills of health from point of shipment to
points within the state, but they could Is
sue them to Interstate points. Hence, rather
than ship to tho quarantine division, much
live stock was Annually consigned to St.
Joseph and Kansas City, and even to Chi
cago, which naturally would have come to
Omaha. The proclamation of the governor,
which is to go Into .effect December 1,
makes tho federal Inspectors in the quar
antine division also deputy state inspectors,
and their work will be subject to the same
regulations as nt present hold good In in
terstate quarantine. This will have no ef
fect In any way different on the present
number of cattle shipped, bui clean bills
of health will be issued to shippers of
healthy cattle. These will come Into the
clean division of the Omaha yards direct
and will have that advantage In the mar
ket. Exposed stock not diseased will be
sent to the quarantine division, where It
will be properly treated before being re
lieved from quarantine. The shipper, as at
present, will have to pay the fees for dip
ping as at the present time. It remains for
the federal authorities to pass finally on
the governor's proclamation, but no diffi
culty Is anticipated In this respect, for sim
ilar co-operation already exists among
nearly all of the other western states. In
fact, the department has expressed a will
ingness to co-operate in this matter.
Secretary A. F. Stryker of the South
Omaha Live Stock exchange. Interviewed
yesterday afternoon, very oleurly expreased
the exchange view of the situation and the
governor's aolution. The secretary is very
anxious to be explicit on the following
points:
Governor Sheldon has just Informed us
that he will, not later than next Satur
day, ask for federal co-operation In the
state of Nebraska in the eradication of
mange.
Tms step means a great deal to the
cattle men of the state as, to date, since
April 15 last, we have been placed at a
decided dltiadvantage compared with the
other markets for the reason that the
government could not inspect cattle
bound to Houth Omaha on account of this
market being within the state, and the
government had no control over intra
state movements of stock. Thousands of
cattle in Nebraska had been dipped and
cleaned up, but when they came to South
Omaha they iiad to be yarded In the
quarantine division of the yards. If they
originated west of a line drawn south
west from Yankton. 8. D., to Browen
Bow, in Custer county, thvnce south to
the state line. 1 his line had been ob
served because the eastern half of Ne
braska has alwaya been considered a fin
ishing territory and was not troubled
much with mange.
Now that we are to have the help of
the federal goernment, all clean cattle
vfrom any portion of Nebraska can come
to South Omaha and be yarded in our
clean division, if acocmpanled by a cer
tificate of ck-anllnesa or a permit to ship
as uninspected clean cattle, Issued by the
federal inspector, who will, under the
terms of this co-operation, be appointed
as deputy state inupectois.
Thia will not Interfere with the intra
state movement of exposed cuttle to mar
ket, as they can be yarded in the quar
antine dlvlHlon, aa before.
Theae certificates or permits will not be
herd to secure, for the federal government
representatives assure us that they will
put enough men Into Nebraska to handle
the business In an expeditious manner.
It is very likely that the proclamation to
the governor will contain an order for ull
the cattle owners to clean up next spring.
This will be enforced by the federal In
spectors, acting as deputy slate Inspectors.
It is only fair to the cattle man who has
cleaned up that Ills neighbor be forced to
do the same or the woik of a doien men
cleaning up miirht be nullified by one man
whese cattle rinsed with the others.
The exchange feela that a long atep for
ward haa been tuken by the governor along
this line and that the stock Interest of
the state have been much benefited.

OMAHA INDIANS WIS CONTEST
Permitted to Have Allotments in the
Osage Nation.
WALTHILL, Neb., Nov. 14. (Special.)
Reliable information has just been received
at this place that the Paul family, consist
ing of some forty persons, haa won a con
test asking that the family be allotted on
the Osage reservation at Pawhuska, Ok.
This family consists of the Atkins, Fuller,
Wheeler, Scott, Stephens, Bayles and Mon
cravlo families and are mixed blood Omaha
Indians, who received partial allotments
on the Omaha reservation under the
Fletcher allotment In 1SS4. All of these
families were transferred, about 18?S, to the
OBage nation in Oklahoma and were ad
mitted, after a contest, to a membership
to that tribe of Indians. After a number
of years the Osage tribe secured land by
treaty and another contest was filed. While
the allotment was being made last August
a contest was tiled by the tribe objecting
to the alotment of these families, contend
ing that they were not Osage Indians and
that they had received allotments on an
other reservation. The contest was passed
upon by the allotlng commission adversely
and carried to the Department of the In
terior on appeal and resulted successfully
to the families named. It has not yet been
determined whether the proceedings will be
carried further. All of these families are
descendants of Mary Jane Paul, an Omaha
Indian woman, who was alloted with her
children on the Omaha reservation in 1SS4.
The family Is widely known over the state.
