THE CHILDREN COVERED THEMSELVES
 WITH GLORY.

We failed to mention above, the exer- cises in the evening of Children's day at the Village church. They consisted of songs and recitations by the Sunday school entire, with the exception of two selections by the choir. All the chil- dren performed their tasks well and most satisfactory. It is needless to mention any names in particular for we failed to see or hear one which was not seemingly imbued with the spirit of trying to do his or her best. The service lasted for one and one half hours, but seemed much shorter because the renderings were so we'll done. Many thanks are due to Rev MT Evans for his hearty cooperation in all the children's efforts, also to the su- perintendent, Burton G. Humphrey, and Miss Laura Burnham, who has for weeks had the children in training and rehears. al and accompanied them at the organ throughout the services of Sunday even ing. We wish Children's day came much oftener.

British Characters.

The pluck and dash of British chariot
GERS greatly impressed the Roman general.
They began by driving at full speed along
the enemy's line, hurting their weapons
and frequently throwing the ranks into
disorder by the fear which their horses
and the rattle of their wheels inspired, and
when they had edged their way in among
the troops of cavalry they leaped down
from the chariots and fought on foot. The
drivers meanwhile fell back little to the
rear, and so posted their chariots that If
the warriors were hard pressed by superior
numbers of the enemy they might have
ready retreat to their own lines.
So in battle they combined the mobility
of cavalry with the stability of infantry
and became SO expert by daily practice and
exercise that when ON decliyity or steep
incline it was their habit to pull up their
horses at full gallop, bring them to q
standstill, turn them in an instant, run
out along the pole, stand on the yoke
and then get back with all speed into the
chariot Some of the British cars had
scythes attached to the axletrees and were
called Iiy the natives covini-that is, the
Celtic word cowain, which means a cart
or wagon. The Romans may have pre-
yiously seen similar chariots used in the
Gallo armies, but the wild antics of the
painted BritOns must have disconnected
them not a little-Gentleman S Magazine.

Colonel William Nave's chivalry and
politeuess are household words out west.
One day the colonel was passenger on a
western train which was held up by train
robbers. While the robbers were going
through the passengers it was whispered
around that the leader was none other
than the notorious Jesse James. When it
came to Colonel Nave's turn to empty his
pockets, he said to the leader, Am l cor
rectly informed, sir, that have the honor
Of being robbed by the celebrated Jesse
Jafnes:"
That's my name, sir, was the reply.
"Then, sir, tender you my regrets and
apologies" said Colonel Nave. Il am
mortified to say that have only $3.50 in
my clothes. If had anticipated this dis
tinguished privilege. assure you that /
would have been better supplied with cur

check, and If you will allow me I will
take great deal of pleasure In filling it
out, payable to your order"
'.Well, I'll be blessed! You're a cool
one" said the robber chief. But I'll be
hanged if you shall Guido me in polite
ness. You can keep your S3.S and your
check too"
''But insist, sir!"
'sOh, you be hanged" said James, and
he went ON and lifted the next passengers

inclosing number of tender phrases and

his usual modesty the young broker added
this postscript, "See back OF Webster"

the foreign phrase and the beginning OF
the postscript TO indicate that there were
others who had used the quotation before.

Retter Than Libraries.

DR.. William T. Harris, United States
commissioner of education, in his annual
report, says: But far surprising libraries
in their educative influence are the daily
newspapers and magazines. We are gov
erned by public opinion, as ascertained
and expressed by the newspapers, to such
a degree that our civilization Is justly to
be called a newspaper civilization" This
fact is becoming more recognized by the
educational expert and the student alike
as time passes There is, therefore, great
need that the daily press be kept free from
matter of an objectionable character. Tho
home newspaper, which refuses TO cater to
the deprayed tastes Of the minority Of
readers, loses its prestige the moment 1t
falters in its determination TO improve In
moral tone and debar from its columns
everything which tends to lead TO a thirst,
among the younger of its readers, for news
or strictly literary matter OF an immoral
or low sensational type

ELECTRICAL PROGRESS.
The Strange Element Outgrows the
knowledge of PrOfcients.

knowledge of Profcients.
Not little trouble is experienced today
by even the most thorough electricians in
keeping up with the advance Of the art
and its theory, and many of them com.
plain of the inadequacy of their time to
master the current literature of electricity
that is of value. Various schemes Of in
dexing and digesting are proposed, but
they all fail dismally when brought to
bear on what was written and done In the
time when electricity was really in its in
fancy. In other words. it is estimated that
the articles and publications of value on
electricity since the beginning of the CEN
fury would make some 90, 900 titles, and
it is claimed, with some show of reason,
that this mass of record is more worthy Of
tndexing than that which is now being
put together in current electrical books
and journals.
One of the most common and annoying
things in electrical invention in the dig
ging up of some one who has done it be-
fore. Every late electrical discovery and
apparatus has been more or less anticipat-
ed, it would sometimes seem, but 1t IL
not until the inventor and his hackers
nave spent large sums of money and much
time that they find out how narrow and
limited is the patent they can secure. Of
ten, too, line of Investigation is engaged
in at great expense which some other I'M
fortunate has already traversed, leaving
behind him a copious though buried story
of his failures; hence it is asserted that il
the electrical literature of the past 90 or
20 years were disested millions Of money
and much time would be saved, several
regulations would be lowered and others
made, and that there would be revealed
fields of work deserving to be followed up
from the point at which the effort was
abandoned when conditions were less ia
