The Need Is treat.

To the Editor of The Daily Leader.
would like to say a few words through
the columns of your paper to the voters
and taxpayers of the city, who will soon
be called upon to decide whether a new
school building shall be erected. The
central and eastslde buildings will ac-
commodate 426 pupils. The enrolment
for the year, thus far, is 4s6, leaving GU
pupils to be cared for outside of the
school buildings. To accommodate
these, two rooms have been provided,
one in the old church, and the other in
the storeroom on Egan avenue. Neither
is we'll adapted to echoolroom purposes,
being defective in light and ventilation.
In fact, it seems to me to be wrong to
subject ou- children to the dangers OF
health and to eyesight which exist in
these rooms. Again, a rent Of $264 per
year is paid or the use of these rooms
which would nearly il not quite pay the
interest on the bonds which it IS pro-
posed to issue. So it would seem to be-
matter Of economy as vel as of justice
to our children to erect the new build
ing. There are probably Is or 90 more
children who have reached school Z
and who are entitled to school priv
leges who would enter school now il
there we're any place to put them. Re-
specially, K. b. MCCLENoN.

miles. His better half being at

marched up to the other and
shown how to operate the in

A great many Anglomaniacs
will cross the ocean to testify
their love for "dear old Eng

they are there they will not be
here. England will gain by the

infinitely by their absence; SO
honors will be easy. If under

is to be paved for @ distance of
ten miles and to depth of sew

subjects who have persisted of
famine during her reign because
of British rapacity. This Via

be rooted over with the skele-
tons of Armenian Christians
massacred by England's Ottoman
ally, and uniquely ornamented
with the skulls of Ethiops who

fend their homes from British
force and fraud. The procession

prospector. Wonderful ac-
counts had come to his ears of
the fabulous wealth to be had,
for the mere taking away. Down
in that part of our country where
the sun blazes on the desert,
whose sands are hundreds of feet
below sea level, too hot for
snakes to live in, only the nond-
escript ella monster and the
horned toad exchange civilities.
So alone. and infatuated with the
idea that wealth and all the en-
joyments possible for gold to
bring would be the browning re-
suit of his efforts, he wandered
away from the haunts of human
ity, plunging into the burning
heart of the desert. Day by day
he ventured further. Each hour
seemed to present to him some
allurement that suggested his
approach to the waiting treasure.
Dragging himself YEARLY along
he saw scanty green spot that
indicated water. 1t proved a
meager trickling spring, barely
enough to bring back life to his
fainting body. Exhausted, and
at last realizing that to go fur
4her was to leave even hopes of
life behind, he dropped YEARLY
to the ground to rest. Casting
his eyes around, not far from
him he saw q gigantic boulder,
and from its rugged face the in
tense rays of the desert sun
were reflected back in dazzling
golden brightness. He was on
his feet in moment. Under the
excitement all sense of weari-
ness left him. His investigation
proved it to be almost O mass of
gold interviewer and held firmly
in place by its natural setting of
solid quartz. So there before
his eager eyes and in tangible
form was the wealth he sought,
and which exceeded by far his
widest dreams-and all his.
Then thoughts of WEAKNESS,
loneliness and danger no longer
troubled him. he was rich.
Even his scant supply of food
and the fast failing drops from
the desert spring seemed ample
until his wealth should bring
him new supplies. The past
with its tolls was as clearly for
gotten as though it never had
been. The present hope fully
realized, and the future led away
into dreams as bright as the
magnificent glitterihg mass OF
metal that reflected back its
glories TO him, and for him alone.
AT last worn out and wearied by
the excess of Joy, he slept. He
wakes before dawn, wonders for
a moment If it was all o dream,
looks around. sees the black
rocks that rise sphynx like from
the sand and there near at hand
his treasure is in all its golden
magniticence. Satisfaction fills
his breast and long he contem-
plates the glittering object. He
arouses himself, for already the
rays of the risen sun are pouring
down fierce heat, the desert sands
renect them BACK and the atmoS.
phere becomes wavey with the
terrible radiators. Away in the
distance he sees the dashing
waves of a lake, he climbs q
nearby rock and looks, and yet
he knows that it is only the del
nsion of the mirage. Casting a
glance around over the desola-
tion he sees form, it seems tc
wave it's arms to him, murder
comes to his heart. Some one
who wants my gold, he says
Cautiously he creeps away tt
look, but almost afraid to leave
his new found wealth, even fol
