The Ledger takes pains to repeat
that it never saw the story as the

And yet "the story" appeared to be
so accurate that the Ledger then in
timated very broadly that the Journal

circles.
1t will be remembered, too, that the

The National Bank School System

The Cumberland Times finds slight
fault with Robert Shriver for not
addressing his letter on the school
bond proposal to that paper as well as
the Ne~s.
The Times should remember that the
school system of this county is a
democratic institution run under re-
publican auspices, and that public
education is dispensed all the way
through on the bank discount plan.
To bring a democratic male teacher,
however, into the county who is above
the scholastic average would be usury.

The American tendency to apply q
familiar designation to individuals and
communities has led to the adoption OF a
colloquial name for nearly every State In
the Union. Arkansas is the Bear State;
California, the Golden State; Colorado, the
Centennial. Connecticut has long -four
ished under the appellation of the Nut
meg State, together with several other
designations more or less respectful, while
Delaware is the Blue Hen State. 1t is
natural that Florida should be the PENN
sula State, and Georgia the Empire State
of the South; but not SO obvious is the
designation given Illinois, the Sucker
State, or that OF Indiana, the Hoosier
State. Iowa rejoices under the cognomen
of the Hawkeye State, while the appro-
priateness of popular name is verified
by that OF Kansas, the Garden State.
Kentucky is the Corncracke- State;
Louisiana, the Pelican, an allusion to the
coat Of arms, while similar reason has
inspired the nickname given to Maine,
the Pine Tree State. Massachusetts, Is
the Old Bay State; Michigan, the VOL
VERNE State; Minnesota, the Gopher
State, the zoology of both furnishing the
designations. Mississippi is the Bayou
State, an allusion to a geographical feat
ure. Missouri is POLITICALLY known as
the Pennsylvania of the West.
Nevada is the Sage Hen State; New
Hampshire, the Granite State; New York,
the Empire State; North Caroline, the
Tar State; Ohio, the Buckeye. Pennsyl-
vania is the Keystone; Rhode Island is
the Little Rhody; South Carolina, the
Palmetto State; Tennessee is the Big
Bend State; Texas, the Lone Star; Ver-
mont, the Green Mountain; Virginia, the
Old Dominion; West Virginia, the Pam
handle, and Wisconsin, the Badger State.

What a boomerang Is.

The heavy, sharp and pointed iron bark
weapon has been known to transfix q
man and certainly knocks over hanger
goo or wallaby or so cripples COW that
the marauding bushmen may easily come
up with it and use their spears or clubs.
or it's origin little has been learned. The
scientists teach that it Is an evolution OF
the stone axes used by all savages, and
profess to find the boomerang type in
the rude hatchets of Africa and other
lands.
But King Bill. after he had done his
boomerang practice at Central Park, sat
down and told little story OF the BOOM
erang that was more plausible. 1t was
that in Queensland there is the bandan-
ma " tree, with queer leaves shaped like
boomerangs.
The sport OF the black children Is to
skim the dry leaves through the air and
see them return to the extended hands
from which they were sent.
Bill said that as the legend had come
down through the nation OF black fel-
lows II was from their leaves OF the ban
danna tree that the suggestion of the ma
tional weapon Of the blacks came. Bill
does not understand much English and
is only a bushman, but he may be right.

A Jewelry Salesman Meets With Very

A peculiar case OF temporary derange-

for Wallace e. Simmons, jewellers, at 355
Wesl minister street, reports to the police
that he has lost his sample case In which
there ere twenty gold rings, number
of watches and considerable jewellry. he
stal es that he started from the store with
the sample case Saturday morning aud
can recall his movements as far as a
saloon on Superior street, where he says
he drank some beer He states that he
became confused after leaving the saloon
aud merely rememb bers that ne wandered
aimlessly about the city. He boards at
364 Weybosset street, and feeling that his
mind was wandering. he says that he
vainly tried to make his way either 70
Weybosset or Westminster street, That
he was seen in various parts of the city
late Saturday night and early Sunday
morning is proven by several policemen
whom he accosted.
Early in the evening he talked with a
Third Station officer at the corner ot
Wickenden and Ives streets and inquired
the way to Weybosset street. An hour or
Two later be met another officer at Brook
street and made the same inquiry. AT
1870 Sunday morning he met III officer on
Friendship rect aud asked to be direct
ed to Point street. At that time Dowd
had the sample case with him, according
to the officers story He did not appear
TO he under the influence OF liquor and
talked naturally.
The man says that he was in his right
mind late Sunday morning, but the sam

The Maoris believed in the immortal

which they imagined all men journeyed

IS the following, which contains an in

tal interference, is sufficient evidence of
his.

maiden, heartbroken at the death OF her

aim.
Now comes the extraordinary part OF
he story. The obdurate father, hearing
Of the girls leap into the sea, rushed to
The spot, battleaxe in hand. Using ter

In Berlin there lives a savant who 10 an
ardent votary OF the theory OF evolution.
Not long ago, when at the seaside, he
caught live herring on which he re-
solved to test the accuracy OF the Oar
winian doctrines. Every day the gen.
tleman took a spoonful of sea water out
ofthe aquarium in which he had placed the
herring, substituting in lieu thereof q
spoonful of fresh water. He continued
this process until the aquarium con-
tanned nothing but fresh water. Its oc'
cupant was then consigned to a large
glass bowl. The herring continued live
and healthy.
Still our learned philosopher had by no
means completed his investigations.
Every day he took a spoonful OF fresh
water out OF the bowl until not drop
was left. A bird cage was now substi-
tuted for the glass bowl. The herring
was happier than ever; now and then II
would utter cry of vexation when the
Professor caressed it too roughly OF
failed to supply it at the proper time with
the little patties specially prepared fol
the interesting creature. The herring
grew sleek and fat, but after few weeks
its "tamer" noticed that it exhibited
signs of melancholy. The Professor
spent hours in trying to fathom the
cause of these unhappy symptoms on the
part of his protege.
At length he discovered that the crea'
ture was suffering from indigestion; II
had evidently ruined his stomach by q
too free indulgence in pastry. "Donner-
wetterl" the philosopher exclaimed: 90
quite forget to give the animal something
to drink" He quickly filled large
wooden bowl with water and put it in the
cage. Next morning on going to inspect
the cage the learned gentlemen fount
the creature dead; it had dipped its heat

What n Disgruntied Hunter Said to the

A well-known hunter came into the
NEWS Office this morning. early. The en-
gineer had not got there and, as there
was no steam on, the two or three report
ers who had arrived were walking about
TO prevent the involuntary motion caused
by the cold and ordinarily known as shiv-
ering The W. k. h. looked warm enough
as he accos ed them aud said;
GOOD morning, gentlemen. i came to

Now not even the cold can chill the
ardor of n NEWS reporter and they all
grabbed their pencils at once. The man
who writes politics got his first and took
down the following story:
You know the Consolidated railroad
has rule that no dogs shall ride in the
passenger cars.
"oh yes, know that" breke in the
railroad reporter.
"Shut up ?" said the politics man ~
am doing this"
"Oh. 90 ahead then nobody would be-
lieve it IL they knew YOU wrote it," said
the railroad reporter.
"When do come in ?" said the hunter.
IL was telling you about those dogs. The
company enforces the rule against the
hunters who would make their dogs curl
up under their masters legs and keep out
of the way, but yesterday / saw IA woman
get on the car at Cranston and ri0e to
Elmwood and she had "A big. woody. dirty
whelp with her which she put on the seat

ductor didn't say word about her tax.

not interested, except as "a hunter VINO is

company Is partial to women with dogs
and don't treat the hunters squarely."
Il guees the railroad company SHOWS
what IL is doing" said the railroad re-
porter.
Didn't tell you not to say any more'"
asked the political man. Il can take
care of this dog -goned item"
Then the hunter left. and the engineer
turned on the steam and everyone went
