In is proposed to introduce "stamp
saving banks" in the Boston public
schools From various offices color
ed stamps of elk denomination and
stamp cards will be obtained. To
each person wishing to become dep
ositor the local treasurer gives him a
stamp card, and sells as many stamps
as he has money for These stamps
must be pasted on the card. The
card, when full, will probably contain
about So. As soon as the child has
stamps for that sum the money is
taken and deposited for him in some
savings bank that he may designate,
The IS once deposited he begins
again, and the ANAL sum grows to a
larger one under his hands. If he
wishes to withdraw he presents his
card and draws al that is on it.
Then if he has more money than he
cares to use he calls for another card
and redeposits the balance. BY this
method all bookkeeping is avoided.
the child always knows just how
much be hiss, and the local treasurer
can tell in the same manner. if the
child loses the card, however he loses
his money, or rather all that he car
ried on that card.

years that any attention has been
paid to this kind Of sport by our
leading Colleges, except for exercise
and amusement among their students
on the campus, but now it has be-
come national, scientific game,
played for gain. Parents as gen

sons making baseball and football

THE SMEN.
Stanbury Visits the Boating Houses
and is SURPRISED.

It Is extremely doubtful il aquatic sport
will ever become popular in this city.
Among the late arrivals from foreign
lands is the champion oarsman of the
world.
James Stanbury's appearance at any of
the seaport towns of the Atlantic would
cause an immediate stir in aquatic circles.
How different is the state OF affairs here?
Not a ripple Of excitement has been
created over the coming of the invader.
The representatives of the Anticipated boat
clubs gazed at the great man with sleepy
eyes and invited him to have squint at
their elegant boating quarters.
The famous shell-drYer accepted the
invitation and was surprised when lie got
within the picturesque clubhouses, which
are situated not far distant from the foot of
Third street. His surprise was not ocra-
stoned by the activity displayed among the
members. as there was none to excite
wonder. 1t WAS the ornaments that hung
from the rafters of the buildings that at
tracted the champions attention and par
ticularly when one OF the inhabitants of
the nets stuck its head from out big cob
web and blinked his eyes at the invader.
Yes, Stanbury will have quite budget of
news 10 give his friends at home Of The spir-
lied interest that is manifested in aquatic
sports by the people of San Francisco.
No wonder the lOng-headed man refused
no doubt, wisely concluded that there
must be among the enterprising members of
the various boating clubs dark horse, who
might possibly have a bit of astonshment
up his sleeve for a newcomer unacQuainted
with Frisco's system of aquatic training.
II is TO be hoped, however, that Stanbury
did not judge Peterson by other famous
crab-catchers who invariably cause much
annoyance TO navigators whenever the city
appropriates purse for an aquatic enter
tainment.
II Sanbury will only visit Frisco next
Fourth of July he will form a good opinion
of this city as an aquatic center.
The proposed race between Stanbury and
Gaudaur may possibly fsH through after
all. II the following clipping from the
Toronto Empire speaks the ruth: Jake
Gaudaur was taken sick at his home at
Orillia on Saturday with Inflammation of
the bowels, and remained in bed till yester-
day. DR.. Harvey, who looked after him,
says the attack was not severe and Mr.

The conveyance most commonly used In
Japan is assuredly the jinrickisha, that curl
Gus two-wheeled perambulator with the
handles IN front. These little carriages are
comfortable or not according to the man
ner IN which the jnrickisha man, or kuru-
maya, as he Is called, holds the handles
Held low the conveyance Is easy, held high
the strain on the occupants back is most
iatiguing. Accidents are not infreouent
though seldom dangerous Sometimes the
person who has engaged the linrickIsha
steps IN before the man has.taken the ham
dies IN firm grasp and of course the whole
thlng oyeroalances. or sometimes the kuru-
maya trips and the handle flies from his
hahds. III TINS happens while on the stone
pavement the results are very serious and
several foreigners have been killed nv falls
from their lnrickishas. By the Japanese
they are frequently called jinrickf or ku-
ruiha, whlle Europeans shorten the word TO
ricksha. "
There are single and double kuruma, and
one can nave one or two men to propel
him' when two men are employed one
goes between the handles in front and the
olner pushes, or placing cord like yoke
over MS neck and under his arms he runs

eminent, the rate being cents an hour

for much less.
The law requires the kuruma to wear a
