Modern School PunisI,me ent.

A writer off for a holiday, concluded
to pay q visit to the old boarding school
where he passed some Of the pleasant
est hours Of his life, owing to the"kind
manner in which the principal kept his
unruly boys Under restraint, and gives
a glimpse Of the method employed TO
subject the refractory to discipline,
which is In cheerful contrast tn the
fogging and bread and water discipline
but too common in such institutions.
He saws: "As we approached Judd's
bridge, about five miles from tho school
we overlook two boys on the rood, one

Fifty RevolveIs.

Capt. Akey, who killed 0. man in
Nevada recently, was mining in Tuol.,
umne county, Cal, when the war
broke out and with number of other
residents, volunteered his services. A
company was raised, all good men, and
he was elected captain. Much to their
disappointment, the Government de-
cided to keep them in California, and
they were ordered to Humboldt Bay.
Akey's head was turned by the author
tty conferred upon him, and he began
series OF petty prosecutions which al
most drove his men mad. They bore 1t
for months, until it PASSED beyond the
limits of endurance, and then they re-
solved to end 1t. This resolve took the
form of determination never to obey
another command of Akey's. This
was nothing more nor less than mutiny
and was punishable with death; but
the boys preferred that to the tyranny
under which they had groancd and suf-
ferod 80 long. An order had been re-
ceived to proceed from Humboldt Bay
to Red Bluffs and Akey went by way
of the ocean to San Francisco. while
the company crossed the mountains.
They were encamped on the bank of the
Sacramento river when he arrived, and
tho crisis came as soon as he put his
foot In camp. He called the company
out on parade, and ordered all those
who had resolved to repudiate him to
step to the front. Ninety men, tho en-
tire company, firmly took the steps
The Sheriff of Tchama County was
with him and turning to that officer lie
asked dim If he would assist him in ar
resting the orderly sergeant. Tho Of
ficer replied that he would, and the
two started to do 80, when they were
both covered with fifty revolyers, the
ominons click Of which sounded pain
fully intense. Tho Sheriff took to his
heels, and never stopped until lie
reached the ferry, a quarter Of a mile
distant, but Akey confronted the angry
men as coolly as if nothing extraordi-
nary was happening. The color never
left his face, nor did tremor disturb
his equanimity, although he fully re-
allied that the men were thirsting for
his blood. Nothing but his bravery
saved him, for they had fully deter
mined upon killing him, but as he ran
his eyes up and down the line and said,
"Boys, the odds are too much" they
respected his courage, dropped their
weapons, and allowed him to slowly re-
tire. The upshot of the affair was that
he was relieved Of his command, and
after an investigation Of the circum-
stances, was discharged from the SCR
vice.

A Desperate Bear Fight.

In the early part OF this century tho
western portions Of North Carolina
were infested bv wild game, among
which was the elk, now entirely ex-
inct In the South. The last elk was
killed In Mitchell county, 1t is said ,
about 1924. Some time about 1916, a
party ofveteran and daring hunters
were in the mountains of Buncombe,
engaged In a hunt for these animals.
They spent several weeks. nsually In
such expeditions, sleeping IN the for-
ests, always in danger from wild
beasts. One evening just before night
fall, the party retHrned, one by, one, to
the rend ezvous, all save one very old
man, a most enthusiastic and tireless

absence caused little remark, but as
time slipped on and he came not, &c
was determined to make q search for
him. While preparing TO do this the
well-known report OF his rife rang; ;o&it

Caution Against lightning.

People generally suppose that there
is no danger to be apprehended from
lightning until there have been sharp
reports OF thunder quickly following
the flash, and indicating near explo-
sion of the electric fluid. Such Is not
the case. When the celebrated James
Otis, Of Massachusetts, the great orator
Of the Revolution, was killed, It is said
that but single bolt fell from the cloud
during the shower, He had often ex-
pressed a wish for sudden death, and
had remarked thatwhen his time should
como, lle should prefer to be struck
dead, instantaneously, by lightning.
One day he was standing In his front
door watching small cloud which had
arisen and from w hich rain drops had
begun to fall. There was single flash
and he lay lifeless on the floor in ac-
cordance with his often expressed pre-
ference. Numerous other. cases could
be cited, showing 1t is8noti safe at any
