Mo great storms* are expected al though we are now in the middle of the hurricarfe season. I long ago an nounced that hurricanes would be less frequent this year than in 1903. Early southern frosts and tropical hurricanes are closely related. All should be pre pared for killing frosts, as far south as they sometimes occur at this sea son, not far from Sept. 28. A little earlier further west and a little later east of meridian 90. Immediately following Sept. 16 all the weather features will be radical on the Pacific and Atlantic coasts and during fhe balance of month more than usual rainfall may be expected except in sections where I have predicted drouth. My detailed weather fore casts do not apply to sections where I have predicted drouth. Special fore casts are made for drouth sections. The Texas drouth predicted for last part of August and first part of Sep tember was a great success for the forecast but the drouth was hard on Texas planters.

This is shown by the report of County Super intendent of Schools Davis, which has just been completed and which was for warded to the state superintendent of schools yesterday afternoon. The report shows that there were 7,178 pupils enrolled in the schools of the county during the year. Of the total, 3,725 were males and 3.453 fe males. The total numl»er of children of school age residing in the county, June 30, 1905, the end of the school year, was 8,802. Of that number but 187 resided more than two and a half .miles from the nearest school. There were but eleven colored children who attended school in ,the county during the year. Jhere were 396 teachers employed during the year, of whom fifty-one were males and 245 were females. The av erage monthly salary of all teachers, in both city and county, was $49.25 of female teachers, $50.50 of male teach ers, $58.75, and of teachers in rural schools, $47.50. A total of $118,483.27 was paid teachers during the year. Of the total, male teachers received $24, 654, and female teachers received $93, 829.27. The amount paid school officers for services and expenses was $7,423.25, of which sum school clerks received $3,012.28 school treasurers, $1,866.42, and school directors, $2,544.55. There are 179 schools in the county, including the Fargo schools, an'increase of three over the number the year be fore. The total seating capacity of the schools is 9,371. In ninety schools in the county text books are furnished pupils out of public funds, and the cost last year for that purpose was $2,612.69. Arbor Day was observed in 127 REFLECTIONS By Rube Adva. v -w Last Week I ventured upon the peril ous sta of troubled waters in the good ship Advice, and told Captain Station Agent how to be decent. I have been surprised at the nujmber qf good pe* ple who have since Written me of their -sufferings. Tt is a'pitiful fact that the condiirt of any business win 1 the public is absolute ly in the hands of a cheap hireling, whose lack of responsibilities and salary makes him absolutely and offen sively independent be comes a simple out rage. This is more no ticeable with the employes of our rail roads, telegraph companies, telephone companies, hotels, theatres and munici palities. There is a reason for this. Iremem ber complaining to a farmer once last winter that this state lacked real far mers. "Well," he said, "we came, here from the mines, from behind the counters, from the school room and almost everywhere but off the farm, and on the whole we have done mighty well." The same is true of people in other liqes of business. The railroads at this season of the year have to employ all kinds of labor, and some of the tough est crooks in North Dakota today art breaking 011 freight trains for the op portunity it gives them to rob the la borers as they come from the harvest fields. I saw a hobo slug a brakeman unmercifully a few days ago, because he had robbed what the hobo called "some kindergardens in the box car ahead." "If he had stuck them up coming back when they had money it wouldn't be so bad," he explained. I figured it out that a "kindergar dener" was a real laboring man look ing for work, and taking his last cent before he got work was just as depic able in the e^es of this honest crook, as the destruction of a game bird's nest would be to a sportsman. Our telephone, managers want sen sible young ladies, but sometimes have to employ silly young chatterboxes who will keep a whole threshing crew idle an hour, because the simple mind ed jay who wants connection with the machinery house hasn't got any more nerve than she has brains, and dares not ask more than four times for his c^atll. A ten dollar clcrk with a red tie c&n come and put in a call, and that same girl will separate herself from her chewing gum, grab a double handful of plugs, and run a string of talk over the wires* that will beat seven phonographs going at once, and Charlie gets his call in four seconds, while Olc with his broken casting in his hand wanders down to Jthe gents' furnishing counter and buys a red tie. If I was a telephone girl I would cultivate rising inflections in my voice. I would try to treat everybody fairly. I would dress neatly and look pleas ant. I would regard every patron of my office as one in whom I had a per sonal interest, I jwotild not josh with the operator in the next town if it happens tb be a man, on subjects I would be ashamed to discttss with him face to fac.e. If my manager was a grafter who, insisted on me overcharging the ignor ant, I 4MttMjget another job. .n te&M%ould try to be a womanly girl, anif^^ould have more fun turn of marriage thftft- ing do all the witfi put together h^f THSC PEOPLE'S 1 *{K x* PAPER ,*J Y ji schools in the county, and 494 trees were planted during the .year.

South McAlester Capital: A collission occurred in this city last evok ing between a cotton-tail rabbit spring chickcn on one of the princi(fftlaand, streets of the city. The rabbit was chas ed out of a garden by a couple of bo^s and went down the/street at the rate of about twenty miles an hour. Thete was a chickcn in the road.
