1t has been decided, laid down and

worth something, and most decidedly
are not. With all due respect for our
local observer and his duties, these
good people cling to the belief OF the old
dame who expressed her utter discon-
tent with the whole arrangement. 1t
was her experience that, when the AL

arrangements, we might always with
reason expect some kind OF weather and
our expectations would be sure to be re-

had no weather at all. But, We may be
content to leave this narrow standpoint
altogether, and base II objections and
those OF the school children on far
broader grounds. There ia a limit to
the receptivity of the youthful mind.

PUBLIC SCHOOL EDUCATION.

Pity the SORROWS of the poor school
children of New York. With what
kindly feeling the young Americans OF
the Empire state must regard the cranks
and the reformers who, by some inscrut-
able degree of Providence or the culpa-
BILE negligence of fathers and mothers,
are occasionally permitted to occupy the
responsible Office of school trustees.
Among all the honorable offices that are
open to the citizens of this republic.
there is non that demands of it's occu-
pant a larger supply Of level headedness
and good, sound common sense than
this. There is none that should be more
jealousy guarded by thoughtful pa
rents. Ii it be true that on too many
occasions the result of school elections
is practically allowed in many communi-
ties to go by default, this state of affairs
is not to our credit as a sensible people.

The death of the late Lawrence Barrett
and the announced retirement from the
stage of Edwin BOOTH leaves Mr.. Keene
the only representative OF the class Of
players who contine their talents exclusively
to the delineation Of classical tragic roles.
MI. Keene has, for the past ten years, been
one of the three great actors in America
whose Interpretation OF legitimate oharao-
tiers has met with general commentator at
the hands of the press and an appreciative
public. In. these, whom the stage seems
about given over to the light and vapid
forms of theatrical entertainment, it js re-
freshinR to witness the work OF an actor
who scars into the higher and more intel
lectual fields Of dramatic attainment, and
BY his scholarly II thoughtful work vivi-
fes the creations of the master minds OF
literature.
Mr.. keene is one of these, and lovers Of
the classic drama will enjoy a treat during
the engagement. Louis XII" will be pre-
sented on Friday evening. and "Richard

A story recently publiahed In Tvs Iapx-
PENDENT recalls tot prominent mininR man
an incident In tho early days Of Pony,
which, by the way. ia an old Damp. AZ the
time referred to the town had about forty
people. or course they needed = post ofics
though no one could BE- found willing 10
take the responsibility. There VA no
money in IL and tho office would BE- 1 de-
oided nuisance to the postmaster. How
ever, a saloon keeper who was more public
spirited than his fellow citizens, took the
office. The office consisted Of N old tea
box In which all the mail WAS dumped.
Each citizen would sort over tho lot and
take what belonged to him.
One day a gentleman came along. and
after glanoing at The system, turned to the
postmaster.
Don't you know that 1t Ia illegal to al
low people to pick out their WI mail like
thatY' he said.
"Well, stranger. l don't know a. II 10 any
Of your business how this office is rum"
replied the postmaster.
"But l am a United States postoffice in
spector."
"Well. in that case," said the postmas-
ter, i've will finish up this postofice in
Pony right now" And he took the tea box
and placed it in the middle Of the road
and with a good run came down and kicked
it clear across the guloh.
"Therer' he said to the officer. Nov
you go back to Washington and tell the adj
ministration that the accounts are closed
up and the postmaster Of Pony has re-
signed"
DR.. Cole ia Just nov the most popular
man in Helena. For a week or more he has
been bored to death by prominent citizens
calling him off in a corner and anxiously
inquiring: $50, doctor, I see by the paper
that you nave been to that town Of Dwight.
Now what do you honestly think Of that
gold cure" Then another fellow will come
along, Doctor, would you mind giving me

A Good Showing 9.

The Mutual Life Insurance Company,
since its organization in 1S43, has paid to
its policy holders 1901 500, 1926. The won
derful growth of the Company is due IN
large degree to the freedom from reStric-
ton ana irkSome conditions in the con-
tract and to the opportunities for invest
men' which are offered in addition TO in
demnity in case of death.
The Mutual Life was the first to pTacti-
cally undertake the simplifcatiOn of the
insurance contract and strip it of a YER
Diage in the mazes of which could be
found manageable refugees against claims
Oh policy holders who had, however I'M
Willingly, departed from the strict letter
of the agreement. That this appealed
powerfully to the popular taste is evidea
from the fact that in 1890 the Company
wrote over Sl6O,OOOOO0 Of new insurance.

The County Courthouse.
or San Antonio LIGHT

Editor San Antonio LIGHT.
OF all sites for a county courthouse,
none in fact deserve such consideration as
the one offered by Mr.. Eli Arnaud.
The claim made by few, that it is not
centrally located, is erroneous; the dis
lance being from the centre of the city,
not further than most of the other offered
sites
1t is as far from the centre of the city as
the Obraia street property; it is the same
distance as the one offered on Houston
street bridge. etc.
The Armand property, covering whole
block, having on two sides, squares, and
on the other two sides, broad streets
with street car facilities, makes it one of
the most desirable places for a county
courthouse, that can be found in the
whole city of San Antonio, without any
exceptions.
Taking further, the very low price for
which this valuable property is offered
into consideration, 1t certainly deserve:
the full share of consideration of the
county commissioners, if they en-
deavOr at all to take care Of the interests
OF the county.
