The spirit shown in the affair is amusing and
the great struggle is attracting attention
throughout this and adjoining counties. The
first thing people ask when they alight from
the trains is, ''What is the latest about the
HERALD's teachers contest"
1t is the greatest competition of its kind
ever held in this country aud all records of
votes polled in similar contests have been
smashed and buried out of sight. The
famous 100000 figures which told the result
of the Philadelphia Press European teachers
contest last summer are way in the rear of
the grand total which appears in this column
to-day.
Over 10000 votes were polled yesterday
afternoon and the grand total figures have
been forced above the 100000 notch and still
the votes are coming in by the ten thousands
Where the contest will stop no one is able to
tell Half million was considered the
highest possible figure but that calcula ion
has now been knocked out and the contest
editor has given up guessing.
One would think that the great poll of
votes made yesterday would change the
position of at least one of the contestants,
but it didn't. Miss Baird still retains first
place, Miss Stein second and Mis-. Wasley
third, and Miss Baird has increased her
tremendous lead upon Miss Stein. The
leader now has almost as many votes as the
management expected to poll from all quar-
ters during the entire contest.
1t is impossible to describe the interest
evinced in the contest by the public. The
Reading Railroad dilemma, the pardoning of
the anarchists and the collision of the British
war ships Victoria" and "Camperdown"
have com nanded much attention, but the
one great topic of discussion is the progress
and probable result of this contest.
While Messrs. Sweigard and Hancock, the
Reading Railroad officials, were in town on
their tour of inspection yesterday, almost the
first question they asked was, How many
votes have been polled in the HERALD's
teachers contest now p and when told nearly |
half million they were amazed.
Mr. G. H. Lewis stamps as utterly false the
report that he has been urging the friends of
Misses Baird and Stein in this contest with
view to profting by commissions on the sales
of papers. The public is warned against wild |
cat stories which are being created through |
vindictiyeuess and jealousy to throw distrust |
upon the contest in the closing hours.

Ordering a Dinner.

The average American citizen is WON
derfully deficient in knowledge of what
he can get to eat. He falls down when
it comes to ordering a dinner. The
great majority of people in this country
are brought up frugally at home and
do not know nything but the common
est dishes. The consequence is that
when man goes into restaurant for
dinner or to hotel he gazes helplessly
at the bill of fare and sees many things
of which he does not know the com
ponent parts. He dares not order any
thing that he is not sure of, for fear of
ridicule, and he falls back on roast
beef and mashed potatoes. The fact is
he doesn't know anything but roast
beef.
Same way in restaurant. When a
waiter shoves bill of fare under a
mans nose, nine times out of ten he
will look it over and then say, Gimme
steak and some fried potatoes. /" Now,
the man who does this, and nearly ev-
cry one of us does do it day after day,
doesn't want roast beef. He is sick
unto death of steaks and fried potatoes.
He loathes ham and eggs, and yet he
keeps on ordering them in dreary and
dyspeptic succession, because he doesn I
know any better, and he is too proud
to confess his ignorance. It's that way
with me, and III bet it's that way with
most of you. Express.

cumstances develop realization Of
vocation to literature, an inherited gift
from her father, Professor Charles d.
Cleveland of Philadelphia, the well
known author of the Compendiums
of English Literature, of "Grecian
Antiquities" and other volumes on the
classics. In his association and under
his influence Miss Cleveland's studies
were directed.
By the force Of sudden circumstances
the attention of the author of Lotus
Life" was drawn to the novel charm of
ancient Egypt, and to its infinite re-
pource of life and romance. She has
only entered on the threshold of this
stupendous theme, but her work gives
promise Of much to be accomplished on
the same interesting lines in the future.

Out Of the great excitement Of the war
grew a fantastic gayety, a wild sort Of
Carmagnole frenzy. Society did strange
things. Women would dance the german

their hair hanging in long streamers down
their backs, while the young men would
seize those beautiful tresses for reins
and drive the fair women with imitation
whips. Everybody was halfma And
after the war was over these women, to
whom philanthropy had become bust

mon everyday work Of life. So Mrs. s.
N. K. Barlow, one of the best and no
blest Of human beings, suggested that
we should help the south. We went to
work again at the dramatic committee
and invoked Mr.. Wallack. Mr.. jerome
lent us the theater, and we really did
some very good works, producing plays
which were not stumbled through, but
had some resemblance to the real thing.
The money we madewe sent to the cler-
gymen Of the south, who wrote Of indi-
vidual eases Of distress. 1t was our
pleasure to save the lives of sick chill

their poer mothers could otherwise have

Too many invalids are given to

Florida, Colorado or California on
account Of climate, who leave home,
friends and business on account Of
their health, who have anxious
friends, or probably some relatives,
who are hoping for all or some bene-
fit from the change, cannot defeat
the object Of their trip in any more
certain way than by a resort to gam
ing. No food, stimulant or rest can
replace the lost nervous energy ex-
pended in this pastime. 1t tells on
the cool and imperturbable as well as
on the nervous and easily upset.

An interesting London building has
just been demolished by the ruthless
hands Of the speculative builder. The
old matched cottage fronting on the
green at Shepherds Bush has been de-

for believing thatitwas the actual house
in which lived Miles Syndercombe, the
prime mover in plot against the life Of
Oliver Cromwell,
The details Of the conspiracy are OBJ
scure, and it was asserted at the tins
that It was the work Of agents provoca-
