to enter, but the janitor stopped her

rooms. Imay as well say that during
his possession no female person has
ever crossed the threshold"
The lady turned without another
word and walked toward the elevator,
followed by the protesting attendant.
Her curiosity was aroused, however,
and she could not forbear another
question, which was as to the identity

Uncle Tom Randall came in from

The little city was all torn asunder over
the appointment of a night Waterman.
Several burglaries had been commit

a night Waterman. The outs in the in

city marshal act as night Waterman.
1t was thought that this would enable
the marshal to always have his force

could issue his orders directly to him.

The ms would not submit to this and
the consequence was the excitement be-

resigned and Howard Sowl. president
of the council, became acting mayor.
THhe marshal also resigned and the

Acting Mayor Sowl. The outs gained

Some Needs of Our Country Schools.

Some Needs Of Our Country Schools
 1. A single-headed, responsible set of (tOwn) school committees.
 2. Abolition of old district lines, and readjustment of schools to suit the changed tendency, viz: to mass in vil- lages and cities, so as to give as just share as possible of school privileges to outlying schools, that while we make a free gift of them to village aliens who mostly pay no tax, we may not allow the back districts to relapse into barbarism and ignorance through neglect and de- privation; for country youth, sturdy and intelligently furnish the strength and earthly salvation of the village and city. We can obtain the above through the "consolidation" act.
 3. More efficient supervision, saving waste, through dropping n-essentials, and by use of the best way of getting es- sentials.
 4. While free textbooks are a con- venience, they are not so great a necessi- ty as good teachers, and poor, heavily taxed towns would better expend their school tax to keep good teachers, but have enterprise enough to keep $1O worth of books most called for in hands of school committee.
 5: Uniform examinations for all teach CTS of the same grade or class, or equal requirements throughout the schools ot the state.
 6. Interest and public spirit in the community, as to their schools, not talk. ing school money for fuel and ordinary repairs.
 7. Regular attendance insured by par. ents. J. N. ENO.

Childs' Business College of Springfield has undergone extensive repairs during the vacation, and will open September 3d under the most favorable auspices. A large number of students have already signaized their intention of attending the school, and the excellent corps of teach CTS, and the first-class facilities for col lege education prove that there is no req son why the college should not continue to increase as it has done in the past.
 Already large percentage of positions as clerks and stenOgraphers in business offices of western Massachusetts are filled by graduates of Childs' Business College.
 Parents who contemplate sending their children to business college should send for information to MT. Childs, Springfield, Mass.

There are other bills receivable, upon which the bank has not yet realized, which, it is thought, will insure an ulti- mate payment of at least 50 per cent. of the deposits.
