class in the Cumminsville interme-
date school was engaged in the study
of geography when the question as to
who discovered the Pacific ocean came
up. 1t was agreed that it was Balboa.
Now who was Balboa?" asked the
teacher.
''IIe was shoemaker" answered a
little twelve-year-oid girl.
''Oh, no; you are mistaken" said the
teacher; "but how did you get that into
your hcad?'
II saw it in the history, and here it
is" answered the girl.
The history said that Balboa was a
''frcebooter," and the child insisted
much to the amusement of her fellow
pupils, that that meant that he made
shoes for nothing. Consequently he
must have been Il shoemaker.-Cinci

Wisdom from n Child.

A story is told of a Harvard professor
who entertained a number of advanced
students at his rooms with learned
dissertation upon the expansion of
heat and contraction of cold. He gave
numerous illustrations of an interest
ing and convincing character and his
guests were evidently greatly instruct
ed and pleased, while he appeared in
the best Of moods with his success.
AS he took his seat his little daughter,
who was sitting in corner with her
doll. asked: Papa, if cold contracts,
why did tine frozen water break my
glass last night?" The great scientist
and the clever students were alike
dumfounded by the question. No an
swcr was attempted. Which was the
greater teacher-the college professor
or his little carbohydrates Maya
zine.

The figure is placed at $1,000, 600, and
IT is estimated that the light and power
plant win be one of at least q, 900 horse
power.
CHAUNCEY NJ. DEPEw was recently
asked what the railroads of the next
quarter century would be like. He re-
piled that in less than twenty-five years
steam as motive power will have
given way to another far greater one.
That will be electricity. 1t is certain
TO be, and it will be within very few
years, judging from what has been
done by electricity during the past six
teen years.
