Complacency in Modern Athens.

A smile as big as a barn door adorns
the Boston countenance when it reads Of
the social aspirations Of some of the peo-
pie who have gone to London this sea-
son. It appears to the self assured Bos-
tonian that society in that vast town Is
nothing if not democratic, and he no
longer wonders at the attraction 1t pos
sesses when everybody who isn't any
body succeeds without difficulty in get
ting in there.-Boston Herald

SIGNS of War On Broadway.

A procession of odd and dilapidated
looking vehicles, fastened together and
hitched to the tail of large two horse
truck, excited considerable interest as it
proceeded numbering along Broadway
from South ferry.
The horses were pretty well tagged
out by the time they reached the inter
section of Park row, and the driver of
the truck halted opposite the Astor
house to give them rest and breathing
spell.
The vehicles, which consisted Of four
timbers and gun carriages, two of which
were surmounted by four-inch bore
field pieces of an antique pattern, were
soon surrounded by a large crowd Of
idlers and curiosity seekers.
The guns and carriages were marked
for the Commanding Officer, Watervliet
Arsenal, West Troy, N. Y" The truck
driver explained that they were from
Governors island, and were en- transit
for shipment to the West Troy arsenal,
where they were to be rehabilitated and
modernized. The carriages, he said,
weighed 1900 pounds each, and the
pieces of ordnance 800 pounds each, or
10,4O0 pounds together, which, besides
the truck and driver, made good sized
load for team of horses to draw on q
warm day.-New York Herald.
Burglars View of q Strike.
At first sight one would suppose that
the class above all others that would
hail with delight a general strike Of po-
lice would be the burglars. Curiously
enough this is not so. The professional
burglar is dead against such a strike;
for, as he correctly reasons, though the
police ceased to protect property, prop
erty would not thereby be left unpro-
tected. In fact it would be protected
all the more by the owners themselves,
and the burglars special knowledge, ac-
quired from local observation of the
habits Of the police, would for the time
being be useless. In the police the burg
lar knows exactly what he has to cope
with. When every householder is his
own policeman, however, it is different,
for the burglar is quite ignorant Of the
weapons that may be waiting to receive
him in any given case.-London Mer-

rewarded with generous applause.
The Princess De Graupou should have
been made up ugly, a difficult task. how
ever. Teddy succeeded very well in this
particular They are lovers until the
truth comes out and both do some clever
bits of acting. Teddy pours out his "tsle

while others rely more upon what they
really know and wish to be led by the
teacher. The kindergarten system allows
the mind to develop as nature intended,
plucks out the weeds and nurtures the
germs of thought as a gardener tends his
plants.
The outline cards enter largely into this
system of training and are graded accord
ing to the requirements of the child. The
multiplicity of the things that the child
learns from this practice cannot be emu
merated here. but it is one of the most
pleasing methods to the children, offord-
ing them much entertainment and at the
same time allowing a freedom and scope
to the mind that is refreshing. No more
pleasant sight can be witnessed than a
number of little tots, whose minds are all
in different state of development, having
fun aud learning just as fast as they can
without realizing anything beyond the
fun. These happy smiling faces will do
the thinking for the next generation; they

AT THE CITY SCHOOLS.

''Kansas Day" was fttincly observed In
the city schools yesterday. While the pro-
gram was not as extensive as it might
have been yet it was unique and answered
the purpose of giving the pupils some idea
OF Kansas from an early day. An hour
was spent in all the schools on Kansas
history including some of its prominent
men; prepared for the pupils by the teach
ers. All the school buildings showed
decorations with the national colors and at
the Emerson especially was this feature
given attention.
The pupils wearing the "yellow" denot-
ing native kansans could be seen on every
hand but as estimated not one-fourth the
total enrolment. AT the high school with
an enrolment of one hundred and fifty
four, there were sixteen wearing the vel
low and ten of them were born in Wich-
ita.
Mrs. Lucy Booth is the only teacher in
the corps who could claim Kansas as her
native state.

AFTER A DITCH.
The City Engineer the Hunt to Re
lieve the Car Works Vicinity.

The high water at the car works has
created quite general dissatisfaction in the
vicinity and some are looking for some
place to throw the blame. The melting of
the snow and the frozen ground not allow
in the water to disappear, emphasized by
the high water in the mill race. some of it
reaching the car works vicinity, has made
it inviting for steamboats, and ocean YES
sells. The school building stands out sur
rounded by water a foot or two deep and
OF no use to the pupils. A number of
other houses enjoy the same surroundings
and the occupants enjoy it much like Mrs.
Jones enjoys sick headache.
1t is claimed the vicinity would not have
been in deep water had the council pro-
vided the drainage facilities petitioned for
some months. The council had made an
effort to comply by starting ditch but an
outside corn field or commons
was worth $1,000 to the
owner, or he thought rather he could
force the city 20 give him that amount
when work stopped. In the rush of other
business, including city building stone the
question dropped out of sight until deep
water brought up something after the
cork fashion.
Councilman Glaze of the Fourth ward
and the city engineer have been wading
around on the edges with rubber boots.
They have about succeeded in finding
route for ditch that will remain in the
city limits and the $1,000 corn patch can
be left out. The line as prescribed brings
the ditch south along the side of streets
reaching Chisholm one and a half miles
south where Fourth avenue is touched by
the creek The ditch will be from three to
six feet deep and it is thought the route as
selected will be recommended to the coun-
Gil for adoption. The question will come
up at the next council meeting and it is
thought that in case the report OF the city
engineer is adopted that the street force
can be set to work and "a few days will find
the ditch completed.
