Goes to School Monday.

A very sensible lady out on Ninth
street delayed sending her small son to
the public schools until he should be old
enough to look after himself and has
been teaching him herself in order that
he might not fall too far behind other
boys Of his age. Yesterday morning
Master Freddy came gravely up TO his
mother for his lesson. After the regular
routine was ended his mother put few
leading questions:
FREDDY, what is q year,"
"Three hundred and sixty-fve days"
"What is a day?"
"Twenty-four hours-and an hour is
GO minutes. and minute is GO seconds.
"What is all Instant"

knitted his downy brow a brief space
while he thought. "Oh. yes, l know,

mother. totally taken aback. why,

The Elephant'n Sense.

Why an elephant should be afraid of
q mouse is q mystery. Some have
doubted the generosity of the elephant
because of his aversion to small animals.
but none can doubt his intelligence.
Button. notwithstanding his idea of the
mere mechanism of animals, spoke Of
the elephant as at tie same time mir
acle OF intelligence and monster of
matter" Ernest Menault happily re-
ferred to him as the animal that carried
his nose in his hand. Hence the mar
velous intelligence of his trunk. The
senses of touch and smell cooperate.
The nerves which extend through his
trunk are so numerous that they equal
in number all those distributed over the
rest of the body. The elephant can keep
perfect time to music. He has the ear
perfectly organized. and the hearing is
extremely fine. The eye of the elephant
is distinguished from that of other ami
mails by the pathetic expression Of senti-
ment. Take him all in all, naturalists
agree that he is the most intelligent of
animals. And why should he be afraid
of mouse?-New York Tribune.

1t was no very ex;,cting ambition that
Robert Young's mother had cherished
all her life. She lived very quietly on
and her husband had gone together
whem they We're both young. She did
not expect to be rich or even think about
it. Size was content with, the homely
round of her daily life. Sometimes her
husband used to say that If they had
only happened to go here or there, where
some Of the friends of his youth had
found copper or silver, or struck oil, they
also might have been worth millions, but
the wife always answered: lit want to

This was the only wish that Robert
Young had ever heard his mother ex-
press, and he used to say to himself when
he was:a boy:
"Bless the dear mother! She shall have

Roberts father, too, planned in his
own mind the same thing, but one year
the harvest turned out badly, and an
other the children had diphtheria, and so
it was that the good black silk had never
been bought.
1t was strange thing that the son Of
John and Rachel Young should have
been an artist. But Robert began to
draw before he could write, and at last
he got hold of box of colors through
the kindness of one of his Sunday school
teachers, and then he made pictures that
dazzled the eyes of his prairie ighbors.
As he grew older he got orders for
| portraits from proud parents who were
willing to give S. for daughters Or a
sons likeness, and he saved these small
sums until by the time he was Is he had

was going to Ipswich for a summer of
sketching and asked Robert to so with
him.
1t seemed an opportunity too good to-
be lost. So he went to Ipswich. and the
summer flew by as if on wings, and Rob-
ert did not go home in August; he only
wrote a letter.

the faroff prairie farm. Once ON his

written when he should arrive, but he

When SMITH HOKE or any other man
took the little migrate, joe daniels, ,ho
has been all things to all men, out OF
North Carolina, where he has been a
mendicant and a charge for several years,
he at once became a public b%enefacter.
The people generally are rejoicing to
know that the dirty whelp has gone. The
cheap job which he got clears the skirts
Of North Carolina, and instead of the
state feeding him, the nation will do it.
He will find, doubtless tina in his ma
tional place, with his cheap salary, that
he will carr it.
This much for the new administration,
and that is why our people rejoice.
a state charge or a national charge is
a miserable apology for manhood, but
the state has stood this creature long
enough, and we are glad, with the tax
payers, that the little brat has been
transferred on the broader shoulders of
the nation. -

congress.

A CORRESPONDENT who has taken the
trouble to ascertain, says that there are
$1,000 office seekers in Washington by
actual count. This means that there are
either $4,000 men who are neglecting
their business at home or 5000 men
who, having no business to neglect, are
simply deadbeating their way into a soft
snap at the public expense. In either
case the evidence is sufficient that their
time is of no particular value, and their
salaries, if they should happen to get an
appointment, should be fixed accordingly.

Several features Of more than ordinary
interest will contribute to the attractive.
ness and permanent value of the next
number of Harper's Weekly. Promi-
nert among these will be an article by
w. S. Harwood on the lumber industry,
"In the Minnesota Pines" very fully
illustrated from photographs; an account

appropriate comment; and q frOnt-page
illustration of a Chicago hotel lobby in
winter, drawn by T. de Thulstrup There
will also be illustrations of the new hotel
Waldorf, which has just been opened to
the public, and which is said to be the
most magnificent building of its kind in
the world. The caravel Santa Maria"
built in exact imitation of Columbus's
flag ship of the same name, will be de-
scribed and illustrated. The literary
features OF the number will be of high
order, and will include an illustrated
comedy by Brander Mathews, entitled

etc.

As to Ourselves.

1t is a fact which no one disputes, that
nothing worth having is got in this world
without hard work and waiting. Yet
when we set ourselves seriously the task
Of gaining a great good, We become as.
tOnished and complain loudly at the dis
cOvery that we have to work hard and
wait long to get it. This is about as rea-
senable as if man should acknowledge
that two and two made four, and should
grumble because in his private cash &C
count he could not make two dollars and
two dollars add up to five dollars.
Nothing we find out in life is more ut
terly ~confOunding than this that truth
is not only true in the abstract, but that
it is true for US. 1t is not only a copy
book axiom, but a vital fact in life, that
if We do good, good is bound to come of
it and if we do evil, we must expect evil.
1t seems to take a long time before ma
ture convinces each of US that we 1--we un-
der her law as individuals in common
with all mankind. We concede that her
law is ~immutable, but we have a secret
conviction that an exception is to be
made in our own particular case.

TIME TO ACT,

We notice that THE DURHAM GLOBE
is after u scalp On the heopskirt ques.
ton. AS painful as it is for the News
and Observer to differ with COLONEL
~FAIRBROTHER about a matter upon
which he is authority and we are not,
yet We shall assert our right as one of
the plain people to have an opinion on
hoops. We might in Difference to the
Old Man Of THE GLOBE surrender our
convictions on many questions, but we
really must draw the line at Hoops.
We know that we are in the minority
for COLONEL FAIRBRoTHER always gets
the majority on his side; but there is no
glory in fighting a battle already won,
and we will lead the forlorn hope with the
war cry Of Hoops, Forever.
The above calls for a reprisal of some
sort. We hold that CAPTAIN AsHE has
DO real business to advocate the hoop
skirts and lead a forlorn hope of any
kind. We want to know why it is that
CAPTAIN ASHE has sworn allegiance to
the British fashion plates and why he in
sists that the hoOpskirt forever, one and
insepcrable, shall trundle through this
fair land and why the News and Obser-
yer has been, as is suggested by its own
words, subsidized.
THE GLOBE does not propose to see
the hoopskirt flourish without raising it's
voice; without entering its most solemn
protest. The hoopskirt is a faded JOY of
another century. 1t is a relic of by-gone
days-it is not news when news is news.
We understand very we'll why CAPTAIN
AsHE proposes to compromise the matter
and allow small hoopskirts to be worn
But we desire to point out to him hat il
he is in collision with lightning insurance
agents, who know that these steel hoops
are liable to be struck, thus making a risk
NN'Ao AdLoluOuo IHdI Z must dpOlOSILc,
and it cannot occur any too soon.
There is reason in many things-and
COLONEL SOLOMON gravely and reproach
fully inform US that there was also a
time for all things.
But when we say hat the News and
Observer has gone beyond the pale of
society that it has advocated and still
advocates the introduction Of an antique
freak and insists upon it, there are pro-
scriptions and all such things in the la
the land which will make that paper
amenable.
We demand that the prosecuting at
act. We demand that the row.
guards act. We demand that the
state militia act. We demand that CAP
TAIN AsHE be at once brought into court
md be condemned and denied the benefit
Of the clergy. There are times when
patriotism appears ~cruel-and this is
one of the times.

WHAT TO DO.
the nation

THE GLOBES columns are open for all
the fellows who desire to contribute any
thing TO the good cause Of municipal
elections.
We do not wildly endorse puffs for any
one man, but hold that all candidates
should have an equal showing.
1t seems o that there is to be a big
scramble. This is right and proper At
this time we would suggest that every
man should make his fight, and, as was
said a 'ew years back, let the devil take
the hindmOst.
In the matter Of mayor and council the
people manifestly have the right to
choose and should choose
If a packed convention raises merry
Old Harry, even the other fellow has a
right to do what he chooses or pleases.
The thing is now plain, and the evil
dence in is, that a free-for.all scramble
would better subserve all interests.
This would add some of the lOng-needed
and long-wanted spectacular to the con
test, and would wrap each candidate in a
blaze and glare of unfading and increas-
ing glory.
