Considering the ACCESSIBILITY of Removing
the Preparatory Grade from No. ID
TO the New High school Building.

"A step in the arrangement OF our
public schools system, which Will effect
No. II school, is being talked of in
official circles. II is proposed that at
the beginning of the next school term
the preparatory grade of No. IA be
transferred to the new high school
building. The preparatory course is, in
fact, a beginning of final graduation
from our public schools, and for this
and other reasons 1t is judged best 20
have the grade in the main building, rs
Is the case with the central city pre-
parat tory grade If the project is car
red out grammar "A" will be the high
est grade at No. H. and the removal OF
the preparatory grade will make room
for the pupils that are now taught in
the Tabernacle church annex, owing to
a superabundance of pupils and a lack
of room in the regular building.
The action will lesson the prestige Of
No. ii in the educational world, and
the building will only be considered as
No. IS No. 81, etc, are at the present
time. There will be no central Sec
tional point, but the educational rils
will all run into the common centre of
the city's system. the high school Pro-
fessor James Hughes will probably be
transferred with his pupils 10 the main
building. The foremost idea in the pro-
jected movement is to have the entire
course in one building. Three years
will thus be required in the gradual
ing course. This would make no ma
terial change in the present extension
of the course. as one year would be cut
off in the other school.
No decision has been made as yet,
but it is probable that the step will be
taken. 1t is not known whether the
other preparatory grades in the North
End and South Side will be disturbed.

very severely injured in the National

was caught between the bumpers of two

are fearfully lacerated. When ne was

feared most is the liability of gangrene

Resump,inn nt the Three steel Mills.

Work will be resumed this morning at
the North work. South works and old
rolling mill. There has not been any
work of any account done at any of the
mills in the past month, causing large
army of workers to remain idle. The
scarcity of pig iron is assigned as the
cause of the temporary suspension. The
boom in the steel trade made 1t impos-
sable for the furnaces to supply the de-
mand. The outlook for busy winter Is
said to be very hopeful.

Mr.. Lewelling. poor or rich, statesman
or laboring man, he is always sure of

II have to do my own work now"
said the governor, as he dug big

sent it flying into tub. There is as
pretty piece of butter as you ever laid
your eyes on" as he presented piece
of it to the reporter to examine; and il
was nice batter.
'Do you do your own churning, too ?"
Yes, that is the first thing / do in
the morning, when the cream comes in.
You didn't know that made this but

Why of course I make it from cream
and the very best cream at that. I
first examine the cream, see that II is
all right. get it i'm the right tempera-
ture and then put IL into the churn
with a little coloring. When he but

If do say 1t myself 1 think make the
best butter in the market today. make
it for a high class butter and, of course,
must get fair price for 1t. My butter
goes almost everywhere and wherever
1T goes once there is a big demand for
it. Owing to the hard times people are
contenting themselves with inferior
goods and hence my trade is not as
large as it used to be a few years ago.

That Mr.. LeweIing understands the
business of making butter no one who

head about the result of the election.
The directory is silent about him but he
is known to every employee Of the coun-
ty as Uncle Jimmy Potts. Uncle Jim
my is a fine Irishman and is an lnde-
pendent as any man in the world. II
is probable that the sultan of Turkey
would give half of his empire If he could
enjoy that peace of mind and general
contentment that Mr.. Potts does. Uncle
Jimmy is a ruler i'm his own sphere but
its limits are the four corners or tne
court house square; his seat or power
is under the big rotary OF the county
Jail.
Mr.. Potts independence is based sole
ly on his honesty and that, after all,
is the true source of independence.
He is the handy man of the county
capitol and when anything about the
court house gets out of repair he is call
ed and he appears with a few magic
wrenches which, apparently, have the
power of restoring everything If he
goes into the court house to fix a steam
pipe the court has ito take a recess and
that is all there is about it. If War
ran Hastings was on trial in that court
Uncle Jimmy would pound at those
pipes and would not let up until he

notice a man in the building His hands
are always as black as the ace Of spades
during working hours and yet more
people shake hands with him around
the court house than any other man
there. Put it there Uncle Jimmy"
they say, 81 like to shake the hand Of
an honest man"
What was desired to be said, however,
is that Mr.. Potts knows how 10 hold
down a job. He has held two jobs dur
ing the past twenty years and two
months and did not lose a day during
the time he held them. He worked just
thirteen years in Missouri before he
came here and put in every working day
at his bench during all that time. He
has worked in the county Jail exactly
seven years and two months and has put
in 365 days in each year, not having lost
a working day. holiday or Sunday. He
has not been sick m thirty years nor has
he swallowed grain or a drop of medi-
cine. He has worked under four
sheriffs and put up the scaffold every
time there was a hanging. He is the
custodian of that grim piece of ma
chinery and sleeps as soundfy within
a few feet of it as if he was lying on the
couch of a prince. No ghosts ever
bother him and he has no idea that any
ever will for according to his way OF
thinking the fellows who were hung on
that scaffold are not in shape to go out
in society now. Mr.. Potts has surviv-
ed all kinds of administrations, Repub-
licans, Democratic and Populist, and
the chances are that fifty years from
now, if ne lives that long, he will be
found down IN the basement of the jail

PARs0N LOSES HIS HORSE.
Rev. Anderson leaves His Horse while At
tending the Ministerial Meeting.


Rev. Anderson of the Dodge Avenue
NJ. E. church attended the Ministerial
association meeting yesterday at the
Y. NJ. c. A parlorS and as usual drove
his fine young horse TO which the min
lister is greatly attached When the
meeting was over he went to get the
animal, but found the horse, phaeton
and all had disappeared.
At first he supposed that some friend
had happened along and borrowed the
horse and carriage for a few minutes,
and while he did not approve of this
manner Of doing business, he waited
quietly for an hour BY this time
great drops of sweat were standing on
his brow, for some of his friends, like
those of Job of old. had suggested to
him that without doubt Jack" was
stolen. Instance after instance were
related to the ministerial gentleman
concerning how men had lost their
horses in broad daylight. Another
hour was spent in waiting, and il
could hardly be said that the clergy
man was in love with all mankind.
AT last he appealed ITO the police sta
ton and informed the officers of mis-
great loss and the word was passed
along the line, but up to midnight moth
ing had been heard of either the horse
or the phaeton. The horse is a dark
brown, weighing about 400 pounds
and the phaeton is almost new. The
theft was one of the bOldest ever COM
mftted in the city. but rhe officers at the
station believe they will yet find the
