VACATION VIEWS.


Having vacation of four weeks,
determined to spend two of them in
visiting the schools of st. Paul, Mime
apolis, and River Falls. Going to st.
Paul. first visited the Jefferson, I'M
der the able management of Prof. +.
A. Fogg. The school building is of
stone, is three stories high. and con-
tains twelve rooms. A hall on each
floor runs the entire length of the
building. On each side are the recita-
ton rooms. Each room has two doors
leading from the hall. Entering one
of the doors, we find space has been
partitioned off this end of the room
for wardrobe. Passing straight on
under the arch of the partition, we
find ourselves in the school-room. The
floors are scrupulously clean. Under
the teachers desk in each room we
find a basket for the waste paper. The
seats are all single. The rooms are
heated by furnace. About 900 pu-
pills attend this school. The methods
of teaching are fair in all the rooms.
l regard Mr.. Fogg, the principal, and
Miss Cramsie, third assistant, as very
superior teachers. After visiting the
Jefferson thoroughly 1 went to the
Madison, which is under Prof. Sayles,
formerly of Lake City. Here found
the work progressing fairly. / noticed
one thing, however, in my travels,

against. When your pupils come to
difficulty, don't sotpe IL and then ask
them If IL isn't so. ! spent a very

st. Paul may well feel proud.

thing crooked, took him in, and pal of
the ragged man ran away. The prs-
oner gave his name as Edward Preston.
and said his partners name was Wiki
inson.
Preston gave information to the Chief
of Police which led him to suppose that
the rest of the goods stolen from McClin-
tock's were at the old "William Tell
House," at No. 225 West Sixth street.
Sure enough, he found them there in an
old coffee sack in one corner of the
hotel "ofiice."
The proprietor stated that they were
lett there by two men who gave him 81
for his trouble. In the Police Court this
morning, Preston was examined on the
charges OF grand and petit larceny.
On the first he waived examination,
and was bound over to the Grand Jury;
ON the second he will be heard next Sat-
urday. In the meantime this is an un-
healthy place for "Wilkinson."

his note for $50 more, payable in ten days.
He then went to Louisville by advice Of
White, who told him to stay away until
the affair Of the arrest should blow over,
threatening him with harm should he
return too soon. Truman says he was
worried in his mind that he did not stay
to give his testimony against the gam
