THEY HAD A DANCE.
1t Did Not Appear surprising Thing
to the Residents.


After dinner one Of the village officials
came over to the hotel and informed me
that there was going to be a dance that
night Out in the country about four miles
and asked if / didn't want 10 attend.

talking about last EVENING""

"The Stevens boys are going to be
there?"
Certainly. They live out that way"
And the Jones boys?"
They'll be there"
And is there young man named
Burt Robinson ?''
"Oh, yes: he clerks in the postoffice.'
''And is there another named ALT Will

''And there's a girl around here some
whore called Jennie, isn't there?"
Exactly; she's my daughter"
''Well, guess l won't 60"
but why? | can promise you a
splendid time"
"Well, the Stevens boys and the Jones
boys were both in town this forenoon
buying revOlVerS for the dance and |
heard that Burt Robinson was going to
stick big bowie-knife into ALI Will
Jams if he asked Jennie to dance with
him. Something was mentioned about
/ someone shooting old Scott if he showed

asked.

Colonel, don't be captious," he ear
nestly remarked, ''there's goin' to be

NIGHT SCHOOL INSTRUCTION.
700 Frequent Changing of Teachers
Hampers 1t.
The Board of Education Effects a
Remedy By Putting in Per-
manent Teacher.

The City Board of Education held its
regular monthly meeting last night, all
the members being present, and Mr..
tufts presiding.
After the various standing committees
Lad reported Superintendent Hart called
the attention of the board to matters that
lad been reported to him regarding the
needs of the several schools. New black
boards were wanted at the high school;
maps were needed for all the schools,
particularly those of California; for the
primary schools "Johanna's Informa-
ton Readers would be good additions.
In regard to the information readers"
1Ir. ErIewine said he was opposed to all
such matters, because he believed there
was tendency to put something new IN
the schools all the time and crowd out the
State books.
This seemed to be the opinion Of the
majority of the directors, and after some
discussion, in which the book-ring was
referred to in uncomplimentary terms,
the matter was referred to the Committee
on Course of Study.
Superintendent Hart also called atten-
ton to the frequent changes of teachers
in the night school. The assistant at this
next in line for promotion and therefore
could not remain there permanently.
This, he said, injured the school lie
thought that the teachers there should be
permanent.
There was quite talk on this subject,
end most Of the members agreed that the
superintendent position was right.
Several names were suggested, but none
were definitely agreed upon. Mr.. Erie
wine finally moved that a permanent
teacher be placed in the night-school at a
salary of $40 a month. The motion was
carried, and then Mr.. Erlewiie placed
hrs. j. O.. Harmon in nomination for the
position. An effort was made to post
pone the election, but this failed. Misses
Bowman, Parsons and Mccormick were
Elso placed in nomination. and after sew
eral ballots Mrs. Harmon was elected.
DIR. Gardner called the attention Of the
board to the fact that it was proposed to
put new sidewalk Of the ordinary light
color around Capitol Park. This color,
lie said, was ruinOuS to the eyes, particu-
larly to those of school-children, and he
offered a resolution calling upon the
Capitol Park Commissioners to change
the color Of the sidewalk. The resolu-
ton was carried.
The salary list for last month amounted
10 S., 324. The following bills were or
Cered paid: Il. II. Greer 81 10, James

RUSSIA AND TURKEY
A Day of Reckoning and of Restoration
Must Come.


For the best part of the last hundred
years nothing in European history has
been so marked as the persiStency with
which Russia has pushed her purpose to
find passage from the Black Sea through
the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles to the
Mediterranean. 1t is now an old, old
story that Russia's ambition is to sit in
pride IN the city of Constantine. But
russia ambition goes further than the
Golden Horn; and the enforcement OF
the Romanoffs in the seat of the Eastern
Caesars, with the supplanting of the Cres-
cent by the Cross on the dome of st. So
ph1a, would be but poor satisfaction to
the aspirations and efforts of generations
if the war ships Of the great northern
Power were still excluded from Mediter-
ranean waters. 1t is singular, too, that
the Turk should nave the conviction that
his fate in Europe is to be sealed by the
hand OF Russia, and that from the day he
entered Constantinople up until the pres
ent he has been able to point 10 the gate
which would witness his departure.
1t is not so easy to account for the ORR
gin of the ambition and determination on
the one hand and this apparently inerad-
| icable conviction on the other. Such
sentiments, however, are moss naturally
| traceable to the circumstances attendant
on conquest and defeat. In qualified
form, younger and older, we find them
III different parts of Europe. We find
them connected with Alsace and Lor-
raine. We find them giving a meaning
to what is known as Irredentism in
Italy. We find them at the root of the
| historic difficulties between England and
Ireland. We can but perfectly imagine
the humiliating effect produced on the
| Christian mind Of Eastern Europe by the
fall of ConstantinODle, and the passing OF
the governing power from Christian into
MuSsulman hands. No such shock had
been experienced in Europe since the
fall Of the Western Empire and it is but
truth to say that, amid all the changes
which Europe has Witnessed during the
last 800 years, she has witnessed nothing
to be compared in its SWeepingiy reVolu .
tionary character to the conquest and oc-
cupation of the Eastern seat OF empire by
the Turks. 1t was not only the humilia-
ton Of numerous races of people-it was
the humiliation OF a faith. lt@was in
Some respects the most damaging blow
which Christianity had received in four
teen centuries.
Hope OF recovery, however, was not
eXtinguished by defeat or the loss Of
power n day of reckoning and restoTa-
ton must come Ia the course of the
centuries Russia has gradually come to
the front, claiming to DE the representa-
tive of Christianity Of the East. To her,
therefore, have fallen as by natural in
heritance the sentiments which were
begotten among the Christian populations
Of the East by the triumphs Of Moham-
mechanism in the first hall Of the fifteenth
century. The Turk has never been
thoroughly at home on this side Of the
Bosph0rus; and he is as well assured that
his doom is fixed as Russia is certain Of
her coming triumph Laird Viii
