A brief sketch OF the school training &C
CURED by Superintendent elect Mason b.
Stone and his qualifications for the respon

will be of interest to those who have active

Born in Wostfield in 1860, Mr.. Stone
graduated from the u. Y. II. in the class OF
'S3 and at once took up educational work,
to which, in the capacity of principal, super
visor and superintendent, lie has since given
his entire attention. Afler some expert

Morrsville, which he retained until 90,

organizer and instructor and in his new
field be ontiuued to manifest the same zeal

he has been superintendent OF schools In
East Hampton, Mass, a position which has
given him, in addition to general experience,
an oppOr tunty TO gain familiarity with tho
practical workings of the town system OF
schoois, the system which he is called
upon to inaugurate in Vermont.
His training as an educator has bsen
varied, and in every field he has shown not
only abundant ability but also the snthus-
iasm OF the true educator lie is called to

of press and public he will place the respon

intrinsic defects of the system itself.

Italy draws an annual salary of Sc, S85, 900,

The fact remains, however, that the pres-

1t seems TO DO well understood now among
the democratic leaders that Mr.. Cleveland

The pemoeratic p1atform..

The democratic platform begins with
reafirming the allegiance of the party
to the principles of jefferson and sol
emnly declares "that the need of return
to these principles was never more
urgent than now, when the tendency to
centralize all power at the Federal
capital has become menace to the re-
served rights of states.'' It warns the
people that ''the policy of the Federal
control of elections, to which the repub-
lican party has committed itself, is
fraught with the gravest dangers, scarce
ly less momentous than would result
from a revolution, practically establish
ing monarchy on the ruins of the
republic
1t denounces the republican protec-
tive policy as a fraud upon the labor of
a great majority of the American peo-
pie for the benefit of few. It declares
it to be the fundamental principle of the
democratic party that the federal gov
ernment has no constitutional power to
impose and collect tariff duties, except
for the purpose of revenue only, and
demands that the collection of such
taxes shall be limited to the necessities
of the government honestly and econom.

LONDON, June 24.-William Waldorf
Astor has purchased the crown lease of
the splendid residence on Carlton house
terrace which until a few weeks ago be-
longed to the Muriettas. Mr.. Astor
has secured great bargain, for the price
which he paid for it $275, 1000. Muriette
purchased it seven years ago from the
late earl of Granville for the sum of
$3.50, 900, and then spent another $3.50 900
in decorations. The house occupies one
of the finest sites in London, being stu
ated at the extreme east end of Carlton
house terrace, commanding a view of
the whole st. James park. 1t is held on
lease direct from the crown for an UNI

annum. This house constituted formerly
part of the palace occupied by King
George w., both as prince regent and as
king. Its first tenant since the conver-

1nn1GAr1oN IN IDAHO.
Magnificent Water Storage System at
Mountain Home.

Mountain Home.
Last week an epoch in irrigation mat
ters in the Inland Empire was marked
at Mountain Home, Idaho, on the com
pletion of the magnificent water storage
system inaugurated by the Elmore
county irrigation company, under the
management of a. w. Hager, by which
more than 40 600 acres of desert land are
reclaimed for agricultural purposes, adj
ding a large empire to the already great
west. Tho event was celebrated in
most impressive manner with parade,
music, oratory and flowers. The little
town was wild with excitement on the
completion of the scheme, Over 800
buggies and wagons filed with people
went over TO the reservoir and saw the
immense system OF storage. Water
from four large rivers is running into
the reservoir, and held in store against
a dry spell by Il gigantic dam sixty-two
feet high and 200 feet thick at the bot
tom, with Il wing 1000 feet long. 1t
stores 5000. 100000 gallons of water.
The system as completed so far has 20
miles of canals. The outlet from the
dam into the canal is tunneled through
$50 feet of solid rock, there being no
other outlet. The pressure of water at
the lower gate is 1900 pounds to the
foot. No work of a like character has
ever been attempted. 1t practically
solves the problem of irrigation for
Idaho, Mr.. Hager demonstrating beyond
doubt that the proper system is that of
the storage of water. The celebration
was participated in by hundreds of out
siders and was presided over by A. 3.
! Clark of Chicago. w. f. Borah delivered
mastery oration, in which he paid a
fitting compliment to the genius and
uncomfortable zeal of Mr.. Hager.
Speeches were also made by Silas W.
| Moody and others. All agree that the
system is marvel of mechanical and
engineering skill. The exercises con-
cluded with fireworks and 81 grand ball
at night.

rae PRINCES ANGELINE.

Sho Is tho Daughter of Chief Seattle,
Over 100 Years Old.
Kansas Guy TimeL
A notable parsonage, frequently
pointed out to newcomers and strangers
at Seattle, Wash. is a real, live Ameri-
can princess. She is often seen seated
on the sidewalk in an old, faded calico
dress and common wooden shawl
wrapped about her shoulders. This is
Princess Angeline, the daughter OF
Chief Seattle. She is very well treated
by the older residents, and has only to
ask them for anything she may want
and it is given to her. This is all ow-
ing to the fact that at an early day in
the history OF that part OF the country,
when the people were in constant dam
ger from attacks OF hostile tribes OF In
dams, she, at a great personal danger
to herself and after long journey,
came into white settlement and warn
ed the "pale face" of very formidable
threatened attack OF the Indians, and
by her timely aid saved the entire set
Element, thus preserving their homes
from destruction and their wives and
children from captivity and massacre.
Her father, Seattle, was very kind
and true in his friendship for the white
race who had made their homes in the
region OF Puget Sound, sheltered by the
snow capped mountain heights, and
now the grateful people have erected
monument to his memory upon his
grave.
Well may the inhabitants of Seattle
pay the Princess Angelina all honor for
the services she rendered. for she has
become q part of the history OF their
country, even il, as she sits by the
roadside with her little short stemmed
black pipe held tight beneath her teeth,
her old wooden shawl is her only royal
mantle" by day and her blanket by
night.
1t is not known just how old Princess
Angelina is, but that she has passed the
century mark is beyond doubt.
