improvements TO State Schools.

State Supt. Stetson of the Maine schools
is now very busy man attending to the
summer schools
The State educational department has
made arrangements for giving better
facilities for instruction in the normal
schools at Gorham, Castine and Farming
ton. The building at Gorham will be
thoroughly renovated and put in first
class condition. The Castine building
will undergo thorough and extensive re-
pairs. A girls gymnasium will be fitted
up. The work of building the new struc.
ture at Pennington has been commenced,
and it will be modern In oil It's appoint
ments. The building of the Madawaska
training school will be completed this
summer and new teacher added. The
course of study at Gorham and Castine
has been extended to three years, which
gives additional facilities for advanced in
struction in the languages, English,
science and mathematics.
State Superintendent of Schools Stetson
says that the new law relating to the State
Gel tiflcation Of teachers will have q ten
dency to very largely increase the attend
ance in our normal schools. Giving the
teachers of the State an opportunity to
show their fitness to be placed on an
eligible list of instructors will induce
larger number to better fit themselves for
their work. Already a large number Of
applications are being received from
taachnrs for certificates

said: "Mr. Mclean, the court does not I'M

The Hon. j. H. Manley has lately made
an extensive improvement to his resi-
dence on the East side. 1t is a new sys-
tenn Of steam heating and ventilating
which being new in this State we'll de.
serves being described. The Vanderbilts,
Gov. Wells of Connecticut, and many other
noted people in the vicinity of New York
have adopted this system and as Gov.
Wells remarked, 1t Is perfect and leaves
nothing to be desired as regards heat and
ventilation. The governor had replaced
an expensive system Of two boilers which
had proven unsatisfactory with this.
This new system requires less fuel to
operate 1t according to reports. The pipes
are above and by being away from the
floor and arranged on the circuit plan, the
hot water and steam all flow In one direc-
ton on gentle incline, until they accom-
plish their purpose Of heating and ventilat-
ing and are returned to the boiler, the
winter having been cooled but slightly,
thus flowing back into the boiler at a tenn
perature that requires but little fuel, COM
paratively, to keep up the circulation of
steam and water through all the pipes
The pipes are ali covered with asbestos.
Now as the water and steam both flow in
one direction they do 1t noiselessly the dis
agreeable swapping noise usual in steam
pipes, being occasioned by the collision of
water and steam as they flow in opposite
directions, occasioning q SORT OF mimic
thunder, at least so 1t sometimes sounds TO
weak and tired nerves. Another advan
tageous feature is that you can have reg
lister In one room and radiator in anoth-
er or as in Mr.. Manley IS house have reg
listers on the first floor and radiators
above, 1t is a double system and very
adjustable as circumstances may require.
There often not being room for q radiator
and a register being preferable The
heated air which enters the rooms comes
directly from out Of doors passing
through the stack Of steam pipes which
are arranged in such manner that every
particle of air becomes evenly heated be-
fore 1t enters the rooms. In this system
1t cannot become vftiated by being burned
or dried as when passing over a furnace.
1t requires but one valve to regulate a "a.
diator. 1t will probably become yerv
popular in Maine and the firm of ] n
Cogan & Company deserve great credit
for the manner in which they have com
pleted the work.

Senator Fairs g. OOO, 900 wheat deal, is
clearing, and the firm now asserts that
the young bookkeeper is an embezzler.
Smith dropped out of sight a week
ago Sunday, under peculiar circum.
stances, which led his wife and friends
to believe he was demented. Then
some said that his departure. was due
to those who wished to prevent an in
vestigation of the methods used in
getting Fair into the big deal, and that
an important account book was missing
also.

may be a defaulter to the extent OF
many thousands of dollars. They ad.
NIT that up to now they have been un.
able to ascertain to a certainty whether
any amount of money, great or small.

Sioux Falls Press, g.: A Chicago
judge, in deciding a bet, holds that both
the gold dollar and the silver dollar were
units Of value under the early legislation
OF this country because, az ne concludes,
the unit was the dollar regardless Of that
which might be coined into dollars.
Under the same philosophy he wonld de
clare that ten dimes or a hundred old
copper cents constituted units of value.
II the unit was a dollar Ut any substance
under the law it was a silver dollar. II
the silver dollar was III any respect a
unit OF value, it was exclusively the
unit. Therefore, the Chicago judge, by
the admission Of his decision, that the
silver dollar was a unit, has nullitied his
conclusion That 1t was not the unit.
