The School Bonds. The election to decide upon tbe issue ol " 820,000 worth ot five per cent bonds to build h high school passed off yesterday, without notable incident or any leeilng whatever The vote stood: For bonds 112 Against bonds 2 In talking with a member of tbe echoo! board, this newspaper is not so much opposed to the Emailness oi the lRsue as we bad been. 7 It is proposed to have no auditorium in tbf new building. In such buildings as have ar auditorium, the cost is neaily or quite doubled. The proportion of cost of flooi space In au auditorium Is not very different ti from the cost of the floor space of the das> 1 rooms. The auditorium occupying half tb- t floor space would indicate that about hai * the cost of the building is saved by omlttlofc [[ tbe auditorium. * And It has been suggested that the audi- < torlum ot tbe existing school bouse could bi changed Into class rooms. This, too, without c Injury to the general appearance of the out * side of the structure. The change In tbe existing school house < and tbe omission of tbe auditorium in the v proposed new school house Is Induced because of the fact that the people of the towr C own tbe theatre which is elegantly furnished jj and which Is splendidly suited or adopted foi j school t xhibltlons. The seating capacity it " all that could be desired. The lights are all 0 that could possibly be needed. Tbe heatint arrangements are perfect, and the fire escape* are up to date in all respects. 820,000 coule i not poEslbly give the new school house equa '' accommodations In an auditorium. Tbe 820,000 wnich bas Just been voted will, therefore, build a good school of which we neeo 1 not be ashamed. And when people look a' r the matter dispassionately they will llkelj * be satiffled with what should be our proudes1 5 building. / We are further satisfied than ever thai i there will be no Just grounds of complaint at to the location. The committee are high men, c ' and whatever thev do will be done solely foi * the public good and for the welfare of tbt ( greatest Dumber of children. Of one tbln; tbe people may be assured that tbe monej { will not t>'e squandered In a high price for an\ ' lot. Tbe town la big enough, and the lots ar< 1 In such number that there will be no trouble In getting a 'gocd lot. And a good lot Is, It } possible, of more Importance than a good ; school bouse. 1 Stockholders Meeting. Stockholders of the Peoples'Bank met yet terday In the office of that Institution. I'res!- ] dent Thomson called tbe meeting to order Cashier Cox called the roll, when it was fount) that a majority of tbe stock was represented J President Thomson read the annual report. \ The surplus and undivided profits amounted 1 to $17,000. ' A resolution was adopted expressing un- t qualified satisfaction with the conduct and < business of tbe Institution. Tbe bank has been In existence for five i years. It has paid three annual dividends of ( ten per cent. each. The stock today will readily command a premium of 360 per share of SI00. The former directors were re-elected. The success of this Bank is pbenomlnal and * most gratifying to every shareholder. W? feel sorry, too, for those who did not take more stock. They have lest Just SCO on every shar< which they did not take. This editor is one of the heaviest looserp. He tcok only flv? shares when he ought to have taken thirty. We lost therefore more by not taking more b&Dk stock as we lost In the cattle business. AFTER 39 YEARS. Mr. Calvfn Alewine Returns to His Native CountyMr. M. L.

The foregoing concise statement regarding uberculosls and consumption has been 3sued by the Missouri Association for the lellef and Control of Tuberoulosls.
