 The school at Faribault, Minnesota, where
 the experiment of converting paroohia
 school into a public school was. tried, has
 returned to its cid status and the experi

 It is reported from Denver that natur- al bridge formed by tree of agstized wood, epaning a canon forty five feet wide, has been found at Chaleedony Park in Ari- zona. It is supposed that the tree had at some remote time fallen, when 1t became imbedded in the slit of some great inland sea or mighty water overflow. The;slit became in time sandstone, and the wood gradually passed through the stages of naturalization, until it Is now a wonder ful tree of solid agate. Again, in after years, water has washed and eaten away the sandstone until canon 45 feet in width has been formed, the fintlike sub stances of the sgatlzsd wood having re sisted the erosion of the water flow.
 A remarkable record of industry and thrift is that of the Polish colony of Balti- more, which numbers about 23 900. In this computation Jews are not included, the colony being made up of Poles and Lithu- anians and their descsadants. These peo- pie are not suffering much from the pres ent depression in trade, since they not only live most economically, but hoard their money at home, The fact is that fin their ignorance of financial methods they fear to trust the banks with their savings. They are talking, however, of establishing bank of their own. An evidence of their prosperity was the formation not long sgo of dourishing building association named after their hero, Sobieski. Among these Poles are 800 property-owners, some of them having ten or twelve houses each. Sixty are merchant tailors, ten have groceries, and thirty saloons. The great mass of them, however, are laborers, who work on the farms in the suburbs. In the fruit picking season whole families move out to Anne Arundel county. A large number are stevedores and 'longshoremen. The packing houses employ good many Poles, paying them as high as $20 8 week. The Poles and Lithuanians are all Roman Catholics, and attached to their churches and paroohial schools. The older immigrants learn Eng lish with difficulty, and they are now pre-, paring petition to the school board ask ing that a night school be established where they can be taught English.
