WARRINGTON, May 3.--Let me PROFOUND
conundrum on the "gas question" You are
probably aware that the company's works will
not supply "gas" as rapidly as it is consumed,
and they therefore resort to storage reser-

arises are they filled with the same quality
of gas furnished the inspector when he makes
his tests; and does the inspector know
whether they are or not? N. w.

QUEER EDUCATIONAL RESULTS.

1t is by some persons considered
an open question whether education
educates. There is no question that
educational machinery, properly lu.
bricated with cash, moves smoothly,
taking in at one end Of its curricu-
lum thousands of bright.eyed urchins
and turning them out duly at the
other end after FIVE or six years. with
more or less of knowledge. But the
machine seems to be out of gear in
Illinois, and the urchins will have q
poor show. as the following answers
given at all examination by sew raj
teachers in Adams county, Illinois
holding first grade certificates, would
indicate:
One named as three living Ameri
can poets, Shakespeare. Pyrou and
Longfellow.
! One teacher thought Shakespeare
was dead; thought he died in Indi-
anna about 20 years ago.
Another said "Pilgrim's Progress
was written by Longfel'ow.
Another said Uncle Toms Cabin
was written by Byron.
Another thought bicy Gle was q
musical instrument.
Another did not know what tele
phone was.
Another did not know that Con-
gress was in session the past winter
Another said Illinois had 10 Unit
ed States Senators and New York
100; said he voted for United States
Senator from Illinois.
Another thought that FrelingAuy-
sen was machine.
Several had not heard of the Wien
ma or United States foods, or of th,
starreute trial. Most of them are
men teachers. and these are only par
OF the answers. .-
