Ono day tho coloGcl was passenger on Swestcrn train which was held up by train robbers While tho robbers were going through the passengers it was whispered around that the leader was none other than tho notorious Jesse James.

Better Than Lihraries.

Dr. William T. Harris, United States commissioner of education, in his annual report, says: But far surpassing libraries in their cducatiyc influence are the daily newspapers and magazines. We ire gov erned by public, opinion, as ascertained and expressed by the newspapers, to such a degree that cur civilization is justly to be called Q newspaper civilization" This fact is becoming more recognized by tho educational expert and the student alike as timc passes There Is, therefore. great need that the daily press Do kept freo from matter of an objectionable character. The home newspaper, which refuses to cater to the deprayod tastes of the minority of readers, loses it's prestige the moment it falters in it's determination to improve in moral tone and debar from its columns everything which tends, to lead to 2 thirst nmong the younger of its readers, for news or strictly literary matter of an immoral or low sensational type.

Hritiab Charioteers.-

The pluck and dash of British chariot eers greatly impressed the Roman general They began by GriTina at fell spesd along tho enemy,s line, hnrling their weapons and frequently throwing the ranks into disorder by tho fear which their horses and tho rattle of their wheels inspired, and when they had edged their why in among the troops of cavalry they Ieaped down from tho chariots and fought onsfoot. The drivers meanwhile fell back q 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 retrcat to their own lines
 So in battle they combined the mobility of cavalry with tho stability of infantry and became so expert by daily practice and exercise that when on Q dccliyity or steep incline it was their habit to pull up their horses at full gallop, bring them to stnndstill, turn them in an instant, run out along the pole stand on tho yoke and then get back with all speed into tho chariot. Somc of the British cars had scythes attached to the axletrecs and were called by the natives icovini-that is, the Celtic word cowain, which means cart or wagon. The Romans may have pre- viously seen similar chariots used in the Gallic armies but tho wild antics of the painted Dritons must have disconcerted them not q alittic.-Gentleman' E Magazine

Two men, evidently foreigners, happen fng to meet on La Sallc street the other day, forthwith embraced, each kissing the other on either cheek.

The defence was that the indicted par

not because the Pruetts had
