12 Per Cent,
The Boise .Statesman snys of a re
cent raise In teachers' salaries there:
The board of trustees of the Boise
Independent school district have
adopted a report of the committee on
teachers, of which O. O. Hnga Is
chnlrman, which recommends an In
crease In the scale of salaries of
teacheVs of the Boise schools begin
ning with the coming school year In
September. The total amount paid
out for teachers' salaries for the past
year was substantially 352,425. The
changes recommended by the com
mittee and adopted by the board,
will amount to approximately an in
crease of 16240, or an Increase slight
ly less than 12 per cent, making the
total salaries for the coming year
about $58,665.
Under the new schedule grade
teachers are divided Into three classes,
depending largely upon successful ex
periences as teachers in Boise schools
or schools of equal rank. The details
of the system of classification have yet
to be arranged. The following sched
ule of salaries has been decided upon
for the grade teachers:
First class, $720 per year.
Second class, $760 per year.
Third class, $800 per year.
Principals, ward buildings (eight
rooms or more), $1000 per year.
SnlaiicH of Others.
Principal of high school, Increase
from $1500 to $1600.
Head of science department, In
crease from $1100 to $1200.
Head of commercial department, In
crease from $1200 to $1300.
Head of department of modern lan
guages. Increase from $1100 to $1200.
Head of manual training, Increase
from $900 to $1100.
Other high school teachers, $900,
$950 and $1000.
Supervisor of drawing, Increase
from $855 to $950.
Supervisor of music, $300.
No change Is recommended In the
salary of the superintendent, the pres
ent salary of $2500 per year being
deemed about right. This year there
Is to be an extra teacher of music,
that branch having formerly been
managed by the supervisor of draw
ing. It was also decided that the
principals of the grade buildings be
allowed nsslstonts In the larger, build
ings at salnrles of $50 per month for
the actual time spent In teaching.
CAR SHORTAGE HURTS.
Shingle Mills Hare Lost $1,000,000
by Slow Shipments.
Because of the refusal or Inability
of the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific railroad companies to furnish
a sufficient number of cars, losses
amounting to $1,190,000 have been
sustained by the shingle mills of Bal
lard and vicinity since January 1,
1907, says the Seattle News.
Had the railroads furnished ade
quate equipment the mills would have
been able to move 420,000,000 shin
gles In the past three and one-half
months. During the first 15 days of
January an average of six cars a day
were furnished to 17 mills whose
dally output would fill 20 cars.
From January 15 to April 1, the
embargo was In effect and.not a sin
gle care was furnished by the rail
roads, and not a shingle left Ballard
and vicinity by rail for 10 weeks. Be
cause of the embargo and consequent
car shortage the comparatively small
amount of 40,000,000 shingles were
shipped by rail. Since April 1 a like
amount of shingles have been moved.
in other words, 17 shingle mills of
Ballard have lost $1,190,000, or an
average each of $70,000.
ANTHRACITE IN IDAHO.
I 'our Foot Vein Encountered lit n
Depth of 700 Feet.
Information brought to town by
M. A. Entes ct Parma Is to the ef
fect that tho rermt development on
the anthracite .vjuI rnlne belonging
to Lyon and others Is fully as good

Poise Statesman.
They have opened four feet of sol
Id coal In their tunnel, which has
been driven some 700 feet Since It
was opened two or three weeks ago,
they have been driving on the coal
and It holds out well. Before they
struck the solid body there were
seams of coal met with, samples from
which have attracted much attention.
ThU property Is nbout 25 miles
from Nyssn and Is reached by wagon

from It for some time for private use
and It has proved very superior. It a
body has bten found the prorerty Is
likely to become of great Importance.

o'clock yesterday afternoon by Evans
