TIE OLD MAN GIVES THANKS.

He Has Seen Bunker Hill Monnment and

Arlo Bates in Providence Journal.l
1t has been my week for encountering tour
lists, because, suppose. it is the time Of year
when they do most abound. Early in the week

came from far up In Vermont, that he had for
years intended to come and see Boston, but that

and took the farm. be never felt that he could
get away. He added number of details con-
corning his family. which were doubtless, of
more interest to him than they were at all
likely to be to the stranger. and related also at
some length his sensations upon visiting
Bunker Hill Monument.

WHERE WOMAN CAME FROM.
Curious Myths Concerning the Origin Of
Mans Helpmate.

Curious Myths Concerning the Origin Of
Mans Helpmate.
London Tablet
Woman's first appearance has been fruitful
subject for the legend mongers. The PhGni-
clan myth of creation is found in the story OF
Pygmalion and Galatea. There the first
woman was carved by the first man out of ivory
and then endowed with life by Aphrodite. The
Greek theory of the creation of women, accord
ing to Hesiod, was that Zeus, as a cruel jest
ordered Vulcan to make women out of clay,
and then induced the various gods and god
desses to invest the clay doll with all their
worst qualities. the result being lovely thing.

passion, love of dress, treacherous manners ano

as Odin. Will and We, the three sons OF BOT,
were walking along the sea beach they found
two sticks of wood, one of ash and one OF elm
Sitting down the gods shaped man and woman
out of these sticks, whiting the woman from
the elm and calling her Emia.e
One of the strangest stories touching the
origin of woman is told by the Madagascarenes
In SO far as the creation of man goes, the legeno
is not unlike that related by Moses. only that

then to make her his wife. He did SO, called
her Baboura, and she became the mother OF all
races of men. The American Indians myths
relative to Adam and Eve are numerous and
entertaining. Some traditions trace back our
first parents to white and red maize; another is

daughter of the king of the muskrats, who, on
being dipped into the waters of nelghboring

HIS BASKET WAS EMPTY.
The Bad Turn a Horse Car Gave n Lucky
Fisherman.

New 1ork Evening oun.-
The man had evidently been out fishing. He
came over Fulton ferry and boarded Second
avenue horse car. AS he walked with his
basket on one arm he held the other out at
rightangesl to his body, just as a man does
when he is carrying anything very heavy. After
a great exertion be got himself and the basket
on board, and placed the treasures or the deep
carefully in the aisle. Ever and anon, as he
wiped his sunburnt face, he would eye the
basket to make sure the result of his days
labor was not being spirited away.
Another man came in and stood in front of
the lucky angler. He was evidently an observ-
ing man, with the eye of a philosopher, for he
soon noted the solicitude of the fisherman for
his basket
Had good luck. should say" he remarked.
"Wel rather" replied the angler. "Just an
even hundred, and not single one under a
pound"
'Wondeiful, wonderful" commented the
philosopher IN a tone that attracted all eyes to
the fisherman and made him blush with con-
scious pride.
Just at this moment, when all was peace and
happiness, the car made a sharp turn and the
philosopher was thrown heavily against the
fisherman. His foot had come in contact with
the basket and overturned it. With MANY
apologies the philosopher stopped to right it
He exerted all his strength. The next mo-
ment he was lying fat on his back. The basket
was empty.

COOKING BY ELECTRICITY.

A Novel Invention Said to Have Been Per.
fected by a Minneapolis Man.
Minneapolis Journal
Charles E. Carpenter, the amateur electri
clan. who, succeeding in perfecting dog anni-
hilator, claims to have solved the problem of
electric heating. He has applied for patents
on his idea. The invention is designed to per-
init the use of electricity for cooking and heat
ing purposes. The secret of his Invention is
the insulating material he uses to confine the
heat to the desired piece of steel. For instance,
in frying griddle cakes the heat is confined to
asmooth steel surface in the middle of the
griddle, and on either side and the bottom are
strips Of insulated material-which are not even
warm.
In the same manner It is applied to the
smooth surface of a laundry roller instead of
steam. By means of switch the heat is turned
of or on or regulated.

THE SCHOOL BUILDINGS

Are Commodious and Modern
Structures Adequate for Ali De.
mandS.
Then schools were needed for the
children and started Immediately with
the most competent teachers, and have
progressed from that time until to-day
when Fargo presents one of the finest
opportunities for the education of the
young of any city of its age in the coun-
try. The high school building proper
is magnificent structure of brick, with
water works and every convenience
which recent invention can furnish.
In addition to this is what is called
the North side school building, another
fine brick, equally as we'll arranged as
the high school building, but on
smaller scale. Then comes the Wash
ingtOn avenue school, the Island Park
school and the fifth ward school, and
with fine and most appropriate build
ingS for the comfort and convenience of
pupils; every building we'll heated, and.
what is just as essential, we'll venti
lated. In the employment Of teachers
our people have gone upon the principle
that "the best is cheapest" and have
not now in their employ single teacher
at salary of less than S65 per month,
and increasing from this to $3.50 per
month, making pay roll of about s., 800
each month. Very few, if any, cities of
the age of Fargo can make such show
ing. Added to these educational ad-
vantages are the kindergarten, con-
Quoted by Miss Laura P. Birchall, and
the convent school in charge of Supe-
rior Agnes, both of which are flourish
ing institutions. From the best infor-
nation at hand there are in attendance
at school each day at least 1900 chill
dren.
