WATER/A SERIOUS PROBLEM EXTINGUISHES FIRES IN FURNACES Board of Eduention Decides to Make Strenuous Effort to Remedy Evil and Keep Schools Open. The Board of Bducation held a special meeting yesterday afternoon, the condi- tion of sothe of the schools in the flooded district demanding action. All efforts to drain the water out of the basement of the North Eighth Street school have failed so far. By Wednesday night the water had been reduced to six inches, but by yester- day noon it had attained a depth of twenty inches. The heating plant cannot be operated and it was decided to close the school today and make another effort with additfonal pumps to drain the basement. At the Twentleth Avenue school condi- tlons are also bad, but school will be kept open. Wednesday the water had been re- duced to four inches in the basement and the fires were started up yesterday morn- ing In the bollers. By noon, however, the water had aguin risen to seventeen inches and the fires were put out. Additional pumps will be put to work today. At the Third Street, Avenue B and Sec- ond Avenue schools tho water has been pumped out to a level below the furnace grates and the janitors were able yester- dny to start up the fires. By keeping the pumps at work it is belleved these schaols can be kept open. The committee on bulld- ings and grounds was authorized to use every meuns in its power to keep the schools open and to spare no expense in doing so. Superintendent Clifford reported that at the Avenue B school three rooms were badly congested, there being from fifty to sixty puplls in each. It was decld~i to place an additional teacher at his school and the corridor will be used as & class Minnle Clay was elected as a teacher at the North Eighth Street school at a salary of $0. The appointment of Mrs. Loulse Boesche as assistant teacher at the high school was confirmed and her salary placed at $56.

DAVENPORT, Ia., Sept. 17.—(Speclal)— Benny Sampson, a Md-year-old boy living in the eastern part of the city, had the thrilling experlence of being swept for nearly 100 yards through a sewer by yes- terday's storm, passing into the Ml sippl river from its outlet, and yet lives to tell the tale. A creek near his house runs through a culvert under Front street |and the levee and a heavy rainstorm turned the drain into a ruging torrent. Benny fell into it and before the horrified onlookers could interfere had disappeared into the sewer. People who saw him van- ish ran into the river bank and when his body rose to the surface of the river above the outlet of the sewer he was rescued with the aid of a skiff and resuscitated.

NEW ARMY POST READY FOR OCCUPANCY Aged Woman Found Dead in Arms of Her Paralysed Husband W Unable to Move or Call for Asmistance. (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Sept. 17.—Special )—In the district court today the divorce business came to the front and for a half day four Judges were engaged exclusively in the oon- slGeration of divoree business.

All the other judges went to work on di- vorces. One attorney, with a large divorce clientage, proved up in three different courts in a balf day and secured six decrees to his credit. Judge McHenry signed nine decrees and Judges Howe, McVey and Given did work, so that the total of decrees for the morning came up to fifteen. There are applications for divorce before the courts running up to the hundreds, but the decrees signed today were malnly those in which there were no contest Fort Des Molnes Ready.
