Boys' Clothing at Reduced Prices STATE SUPERINTENDENT HAS AN IMPORTANT OFFICE. j ( Constant growth in the Importance Of the position of state superiutopdont 0f schools is reported by the United states bureau of education. In his survey of the educational legislation lor the year J. (J. Boykin declares: ,t "Tho importance, of the office con stantly increases. New duties and re sponsibilities are steadily added, and Jitrgcr salaries are offered to attract Slid hold men of tho caliber to make the position in fact as' well as in name the head of the state educational sys iem. 3 "The tendencies are all in tho di lution of inccrasiug the dignity, re sponsibility and salary of the state superintendent. The legislation of the year contained many instances in point.' The commissioner of education in MasachiiRctts was authorized to ap prove bills for expenditure from funds placed under the direction of the board Of education. In New Jersoy the state Commissioner of education now ap- points all tho county superintendents, llo also determines and certifies to the educational qualificaitons of appli cants for admission to medical col leges. J "In Virginia the state superintend ent is charged with similar duties in connection with medical colleges. 1 'On Kentucky it was enacted that the state superintendent shall act as Special state inspector and examiner of all schools in the state which re ceive public funds; for this service he is to receive $1500 additional salary; he may appoint two assistants at $1000 each per annum, with their expenses for traveling; and he is allowed $'000 additional for clerk hire. In a vague and general way the superintendent probably had already the power given him by this law, but it is now definite and specific, and the additional help given him will enable him to perform his duties in an elective manner not possible hitherto. And the $1500 added to hi salary will prove to be a difference that is very real." Although the tendency to increase the power and responsibility of the state superintendent is very strong, salary inducements have not always kept pace with the requirements, ac cording to the report. "It is still un fortunately true," says Mr. Boykin, "that in many cases the superintend ents of the largo cities and the heads of all the important institutions in a state receive considerably higher sal aries and have far more certain tenure than tho man who is nominally their official superior."

Liberty St Phone 25 danger, the steamer City of Seattle from .Puget Bound, in tow of the1 Bteamor Chatham is outside Coos Bay await ing assistance. The light house tender Manzanita went outside tho bay about noon to give aid to the distressed ves sel and tow her in, but the Chatham, with her tow, continued south although having been informed by wireless that help was coming. A fishing boat, which communicated with tho Bteam- this morning, reported that thov needed help at once. An Old Ferry Boat Seattle, Wash., Julv 4 The steamer City of Seattle, reported in distress off Coos Bay, is an Alaska liner, and does not run south. The old West Seattle ferry, "City of Seattle," was recently sold to a San Francisco transportation company, and is now being towed to San Francisco. This probably is the vessel in distress. Yesterday afternoon the different races that are taking a prominent part in the Cherry Festival were pulled off with the main feature centered in a five-mile Marathon race. Councilman Turner had charge of the races and started the long-distance runners are 4 o'clock from the corner of Liberty and State streets. The route the runners took followed the paving out across 24th street ending in front of Bell's confectionery store on North Commercial street. The racers were all Y. M. C. A. men and Bhowed that they were runners, not only in name but in action. Young Lafky came in first, making the five miles in 25 minutes and 55 soconds. Those following were Spence, second; Talman, third, and an Indian lad, Coyoteis, fourth. The prizes given were cash in the form of $10, $5 and $2.50. v Few Carry Off All Prizes. During the next five races of the af ternoon theer seemed to be a squad of young fellows who had a corner on the racing game by carrying away all of the prizes. Cash prizes were given in all of the races, donations from the White Feed Company of $1.50, $1 and 50 cents, except in the 100-yard dash, which gave as prizes $5, $3 and $2. In tho 50-yard dash for boys under 16 years of age, Tillman Porizo came in first, hamucl Plummer, second, and Floyd White, third. In the 50-yard dash for boys nndor the age of 12, the honors were given to Samuel Carter, Hayinond Means and Elmer Griggs. Next camo the threo-leggcd race which was carried away by Floyd Whito and Tillman Perrizo, Samuel Carter and Raymond Means and Sam uel Plummer and Elmer Griggs. The racers then moved over to North Commercial street, where they could have more room and the sack race was pulled off in great style with Floyd White carrying off the honors. Young Carter came in second, while Perrizo got third place in the absence of any other competitor. Eay Makes Loud Kick. The 100-yard dash turned out to be somewhat of a failure, owing to the clofle finish of tho two runners, Bra zier Small and E. Kay. By the judg ment of bystanders it was thought that Small came in first, but Air. Turner thought best to divide the money for first and second place between the runners, which he did amid an outburst of protest from Kay, who swore by The Old Way. The Vault with out a, fault The best in the world. Made in Salem. The New Way. This is the day of progress and improvement upon the customs of the past. To those who wish something better than the wooden box as a recepticle for the casket containing the remains of the dear departed, the National Steel Rinforced Waterproof Cement Vault is the highest ideal in vault construction. In some places Concrete (called cement) Vaults are constructed in the grave, and are like filter cisterns holding water. The Steel Vault, when subjected to the moisture of the earth, will last but a few years. The Nation al Vault will last forever and remain perfectly dry. Lehman & Clough, the Funeral Directors, wishing to give the people of Salem and Marion and Polk counties the best service obtainable anywhere, have secured the steel moulds and patent process of waterproofing. These vaults are? being manufactured in Salem and may be seen at the I. O. O. F. cemetery or at 445 Court street. This is the only vault that can be shipped. We have also the most beautiful funeral chapel in the city. all the stars that he could beat Small under any conditions they choBe to name. Kay was for running the race over, but the decision of Turner stuck. MAYOR GETS JAILED. Spokane, Wash., July 4 Mayor .Tared Ilerdlick and City Clerk A.
