Owing to the extreme hut weather and the prevalence of slckit?' In the city, It Is probable that tho opening of tho city schools may bo postponed for a week or two until It is cooler. Tho matter has been discussed by the directors, and that Is tho conclusion that they have arrived at. Ilowovor, If It should become cool by tho 14th of the coming month, th-J schools will be opened on the regular time. The time of the opening of the schools has been placed In the mid dle of September, for tho very loason that It Is generally tho case that tho hot weather has passed by and the cool (lays of the fall have come by that time. Owing to tho location and the construction of the school buildings of the city, hot weather aft'ecU the scholars here to a greater extent than might bo expected. The build ings aro low and placed where, dur ing n part of tho day, the rays of the sun strlko hard on tho roof. When the rooms are tilled with children this heat Is Intensified and becomes most uncomfortnble. For tills reason the directors have placed the (line of cn'llng tho school so late, since by that arrangement It will b.? cool to begin with, and the days will be nice Mien commencement comes. Ii may be possible that the neatlng llant will not be in on time for tho opening of the school, and If this Is so all of the schools wilt bo kept closed until the high school building is ready for occupancy. This delay would not ho more than a week, how ever. The work at tho various build ings Is progressing as fast as the men can got the material and make the changes, and It is expected that all will be done by the time the day of the opening comes around. Two of tho basement rooms at the high school will ho used by the pupils, owing to the overcrowding of tho other buildings, and by tho use of these it Is thought that there will be enough room to accommodate all of the children that will attend. i Wool Sorters and Graders Will Par ticipate Actively and Fully.

Alex JlcRae Is threshing the crop on the farm of Thomas Thompson, on tho reservation, and is doing the work with his now harvester.
