MONDAY, JANUARY 80.

Out in North Dakota it is proposed to
loan the school fund to needy farmers,
taking for security mortgages on real es-
tate. We should say that under such
policy as that the fund would soon be-
come much more helpful to agriculture
than to education.

EAGLETS.

A NEBRASKA rainmaker named
Swisher has been awarded $50 for
producing half-inch rainfall in that
State, as per contract with farmer
named McMurty. Swisher was to re-
ceive $500, but McMurty refused to
pay him on the ground that the rain.
which actually fell, was the result of
natural causes. The Judge agreed
with the defendant, but ordered him
to pay $50 out of respect for the con-
tract. The decision was unjust, as
McMurty should either have paid the
$500 or nothing; but it will be of
great interest to General Dyrenfurth
and his Chicago hackers. If rain
maker could collect under contract
in case rain followed his efforts, then
it might pay to hire an expert weather
prophet and follow the business as a
matter of speculation. But if the
rainmaker is only to receive one-tenth
of his pay, even when he happens to
make strike, the business cannot
be considered promising.

ALDERMEN AGAINST FADS.

Ali Kenny, Chairman Of the Coun-
Gil Committee on Schools, gave notice
that he would present resolution in
the Council directing the Board of
Education to itemize the estimates
for the appropriation this year.
Hitherto the appropriation for school
purposes has been made in bulk. The
items for the fads and the jobs have
been included in the lump sum. The
Council, without knowing it, there
fore, appropriates for those things to
which they are opposed.
"This year, said Alderman Kenny,
@we will know what we are voting on
if | can bring it about. In that way
we can get at the abuses. and l for
one propose to cut out the appropria-
tions for drawing, mud-pie making,
special music, and dumb bell and
lathe exercises. | will also try to
strike out the appropriation for the
new Bureau of Building"
Aldermen Hepburn, Marrenner
and Ernst, who listened, said they
would support Mr. kenny's resolu-
ton. 1t was asserted by we'll
informed member of the School
Board that the creation of the Build
ing Bureau was the result of bar
gain between the supporters of that
project and the supporters of the
fads.
"This trading" said the member,
ais nothing unusual in the board.
The supporters of the nud-pie fad
say to the supporters of the physical
culture fad, You support my plan
and I'll vote for yours. In this way
members otherwise antagOnistic in
opinion are brought together. Only
few days ago one of the fadists went
TO a German member and said: III
you doo't support us in favor OF draw
ing and clay modelling, why then you
can't expect us to help you to keep
German ia the schools. German is a

A TENNESSEE Judge named Spring
field, presiding over court at Chat

Justice resembling the practice Of
Robin Hood, who stole from the rich
and gave the plumber to the POOR. He
has announced that no person in
necessitous circumstances will be
punished in his court for stealing coal
from the coal trust. Several men and
women who had been arrested for
depredations on the ring coal yards
were discharged, Judge Spring field
has original notions Of equity not
exactly in conformanec with modern
legal methods of Jurisprudence. But,
with the thermometer at 10 below
zero and coal at trust prices, the ma
