The conduct Of a hen which protected
her brood Of chickens from the dangers
OF rapid transit attracted the attention
of passengers Oh car $50 Of the City and
Suburban Railway company yesterday.
The a was going down grade on
Eastern avenu toward Highlandtown
and was travelling at a lively speed.
Just ahead at Luzerne street the motor
man saw the hen and her family in the
middle Of the track. A brave looking
rooster was there, too, strutting about
with pride and arrogance.
The motorman, fearing that the chick
ems would get under the wheels of his
car, made an effort to stop, but the
speed was SO great that he could do moth
ing more than check it by the time the
group of chickens was reached. The
rooster tapped his wings and ignomin-
iously flew away, leaving the hen and
her young ones to look out for them
selves.
The mother, scenting the danger to
her little ones squatted on the ground
in the center of the track and raised her
wings, under which the chickens took
refuge. When the car had passed, the
passengers who had witnessed the Incl,
dent We're delighted to see the hen and
her brood uhharmed. The car had passed
right over her, but she had squatted
close to the ground and in that way es-
capped injury to herself and the chicks

After Many Years of Separation Thi Hus-
band Returned With wealth.
A romance has developed at Niagara
Falls in the reunion and remarriage of
o couple whom the gold fever separated.
In 1883 Regina Domedion. a handsome
girl Of 20, was welded to Edward L.
Doyle, a man Of 40, a college graduate
and a seeker Of wealth.
Within six months after his marriage
Doyle left his bride to prospect for gold
in Colorado. To the bride a daughter
was born, and after several years wait
ing she thought she had been deserted
and secured a divorce. She settled in
Buffalo with her little girl and was
living quietly there, when one day re-
Gently a stranger with a gray beard, tall
and straight, knocked at her door. She
looked and gave a cry Of recognition.
1t was the husband, who had come
back. He was almost ashamed to come
to her, but he did, and placed at her feet
the wealth he had accumulated. Elk
plantations followed, and both resolved
to be remarked. They went to the Falls
and were reunited by the Rev. R. c..
Brownley at the Methodist parsonage
last week.-New York Recorder.

Secretary M. r. Leverson of the Anti

to the boards of health all over the
country a circular containing the fol-
lowing proposal:
"That there be selected 10, 900 chill
dren, in similar conditions of life, of
the ages of. say, 3 months to l year, at
present u~nvaccinated, the parents or
other lawful guardians of 5000 of

5000 unwilling that they should be
vaccinated; thats the first 5000 shall
then be vaccinated by health officers,
the other 5000 to continue unvaccinat-

far al the parents will permit, under
the observation Of boards and Of physi-
clans to be selected by the society; that

TO SOLVE A PROBLEM.
BALTIMORE WOMEN AND THE OLD
SERVANT GIRL QUESTION.
A Fund to BE Raised For the Establish
ment of n school-Tuition to He Free
and Course of Study Very Thorough-A
Boon For Housewives.

and Course of Study Very T~horough-A
Boon For Housewives.
While women are anxious to do some
thing out Of the ordinary that will be
Of substantial benefit to the community
in which they live, the experiment be-
ing tried by a number Of women in Bal
timore should prove of interest. The OBJ
ject Of the work is the practical solution
Of the servant girl question, and if the
Baltimore plan succeeds it will emanci-
pate women from this greatest perplex-
ity of housekeeping.
The plan Is to induce 1000 ladies to
subscribe So a year for three years to
a fund to be used in establishing a school
for the training Of girls for domestic
service. The tuition is free to all girls,
and the course Of study embraces cook
ing, serving, general homework, cham
berwork, sewing, mending and reading
and writing-in fact, everything neces-
sary for an accomplished domestic to
know. The school would also be a high
grade intelligence Office for the ladies
who contribute to its support. >
While this school would be of great
benefit to the ladies themselves, it would
be also highly beneficial to the girls. 1t
is undoubtedly true that the drudgery
Of labor decreases just in proportion to
the skill and intelligence put into it,,
and these educated servants would find
that their competence would be no small
consideration in the matter of their con
tent,nent, while it would be still more
important to them in increasing their
compensation.
Not the least Of the advantages result
ing from such q school would be the
establishment Of something like q uni
form system in the kitchen. Now it
takes a reasonably intelligent girl a
month to forget the ways Of the last
mistress and learn those Of the new.
Every woman who keeps house'i is fully
aware Of tho severe nervous strain that
is involved in a change Of servants, but
with a fair supply of well trained girls
to meet the demand this worry would
be avoided, to the great advantage Of
domestic tranquility and comfort.
While the new woman" does not
take kindly to advice it may be urged
that, as a branch Of home missionary
work, the establishment Of schools for
the training of house servants might be
productive of much domestic happiness.

THE FIRST
II was Built by Oliver Evans. Who COULDN'T
Lay Vp Money.

Lay NJ uAOu0ys
The real inventor of the locomotive
never realized a cent from his invention.
His name was Oliver Evans. He was
born in Delaware in 1866 and spent all
his life perfecting inventions which
were destined to bring him nothing but
more poverty. He. was the original in
ventor Of the high pressure engine used
In locomotives, the only kind that could
be employed to advantage in this form
OF transportation, but realized nothing
for his idea.
His application of the notion to both
land and water power was somewhat
novel.
In 1904 the municipality of Philadel-
phia called for bids for the dredging Of
the river II the cleaning Of the docks.
Evans put in a bid lower than any Of
his competitors, and when it was ac-
copied determined to build a steamboat
to do the work.
He fitted out q scow with q steam en-
CINE, building both the engine and the
scow in his own workshop.
When the boat was ready to be launch
cd, Evans determined to give the peo-
pie Of Philadelphia an object lesson in
mechanics, SO lie put the boat ON wheels,
fitted up a push wheel behind, set his
engine to work and propelled the boat
through the streets to the river in the
midst of III open mouthed throng, not a
few Of whom had a dim idea that he
ought to be arrested for w%itchcraft.
When the boat reached the bank of
the river, the wheels and ayles were tax
EN- Oft, the craft was launched, fitted
out with Other wheels and made to do
tbs work Of dredging the harbor.
So far as tie invention of mechanical
devices Went, Evans had q splendid
genius, but when dollars and cents came
up for consideration he was a mere
child, and even allowed himself TO be
cheated ont Of the money that was due
him for cleaning the Philadelphia har-
Dor with his new tangled Steamboat

Connecticut is the latest state to enact

His Buried Arm Hurt Him.

Peter King, a lumberman Of Grass
Valley, recently met with a terrible &C.
cident whereby he lost one Of his arms
in a planning machine. The severed limb
was buried in such a that when
subsequently disinterred it was found
that the hand and wrist We're twisted.
The strange feature Of the affair is the
fact that King suffered considerable pain
until the buried member was dug up
and Strengthened, when the cramped and

THE MARSHALS

Who Killed Outlaw williams, of Georgia,
Did Only Their Duty, Says the Federal
Court.
MACON, Ga, June 1.-The decision Of
Judge Speer was rendered in the
case of the state against the three
United States deputy marshals
charged with the murder Of Luciu
L. Williams, of Telfair county, who
had been declared an outlaw by the
Federal court. The court decided that
the officers were only doing their duty,
and were compelled to shoot the old
man in order to save their own lives.
Williams was asleep on his front
porch. The deputies approached
the house through the fields
and hailed when at the front
gate. Williams raised up, seized his
gun lying by his side and shot at
Deputy Kelly, who returned the fire.
The old man was hit in the face. He
ran through the house and came around
to the corner, opening up regular
duel to the death. He was hit five
time with buckshot and died the next
day.
