and the work accomplished in this school

peculiar kind of work.
The Broad street school had no less an
able principal in the person of Mr.. Dexter,
and his work in this school calls for great
praise. In fact, the scholars of the even

Mines of Mammoth Bones.

At some time In the distant past re
markable state of affairs existed in what
are now the bleak arctic regions of Siberia.
At tho time of which we speak, the climate
must have been comparatively mild, foi
thousands and hundreds of thousands OF
huge animals, mostly of the elephant type,
roamed up and down the valleys of what are
now frozen polar rivers. In the midst OF
their innocent happiness a sudden and
awful change came. Some philosophers
say that the earth "fell out of balance
and tilted thousands Of miles to the north
Whatever the cause, fierce winter almost
instantly swept over the land Of the mas
todon and the mammoth and overwhelm-
cd the great beasts In huge snowdrifts,
from which they could not extricate them
selves In the course of time these huge
banks of snow were transformed into great
mountains of Ice, and today specimens OF
the great hairy mammoth may bo found
that are az fresh az when they were frozen
In, thousands u years ago. In some places
along the Lena river the bluffs are perfect
mines Of mammoth bones. The natives
even told Explorer Schuetze that New ST.
IBERIA had a foundation composed wholly
of great bones. Louis Republic.

THE MALE SOCIETY BUD.

II tho blossoming of the female "bud'
into flower OF society Is proper topic foi
newspaper discussion, why should not the
male "bud" be also bonored with de-
tailed "write up In the public prints, &C
that his charms may be as widely adver.
tised as those of the attractive creature
who depend upon him for seats at tn
opera and partners at the germanp Evi.
dsntly there is no just reason for the dis
elimination from the point OF view of o
Washington paper, which presents In sew
eral columns the best qualities OF num-
Der of masculine "buds" which are now
full blown.
The proud monopoly which the fairei
sex has heretofore enjoyed Is thus rudely
assailed, and hereafter It would not be sur
pirsing IL the enterprising society reporter
has to give as much attention to those COY
young things that wear dress coats and
belong to the club as he has heretofore de
voted to the ladies. Whether this shall
prove to be an afiliction remains to be
seon, but the novelty of the innovation
will no doubt lend some interest at first to
the apotheosis of the male "bud." Blond
he will be pictured to us In all his stun

The part Of his hair, the length of his
collar and the brevity Of his topcoat, the
style of his boots and the color of his
gloves, the diameter of his eyeglasses ano

analysis and painstaking industry of the

Wives VINO Help Vhofr HusbondD In q
Display Of Skill.
One of the most remar kable things TO be
experienced in real lifo Is the wonderful
confidence which is SO often displayed by
a woman In the man she loves. We hear
now and then of woman who permits
herself to be carried across dizzy heights
on the back of her husband, of women
who stand with apples upon their heads I'm
order that their husbands may shoot them
away with rifle balls. Of one woman who foi
several seasons was In the habit of night
ly standing against board screen while
her husband dexterously threw knives
around her until sho was pinned In SO that
she could not move from her position,
when the slightest deviation from his
wonderful skill would have meant that
one Of the knives would pierce her flesh
and doubtless kill her.
Chiquita, in Mexico, used to stand In the
center OF the bull ring and face fearlessly
the maddonod animal, which was induced
to charge upon her, her sole hope Of escap.
ing a horrible death depending upon the
precision with which her husband should
throw his never failing lasso. And yet she
died natural death, for the lariat In her
husbands hands never failed to turn the
bull In time, and 1t was not an infrequent
occurrence that he was 30 drunk when hs
mounted his horse to perform the act that
he had tn be assisted into the saddle. There
are thousands of cases of the kind, and
they are taking place every day right DO

that we do not realize the truth when we

1t Is interesting to know how this act
originated. Sam Marion, who is the prime,
OF agile performers, describes 1t in his OWE
words as follows:
II had been out to dinner party after
the performance one night and did not &C

morning. My wife was in bed, but she had
to get up to lot mo In, and we were chat
ting about the performance, when sudden.

my head. Come here said to her.
Stand with your back to me and stiffen

but stood just l said and grabbed hei
and gave her the turn just as you have
seen me do it on the stage. She had ne
idea of what was going to do until II
was done, but when she landed on her feos

VETERAN FIREMEN.


Meeting OF the Entertainment Committee
Last Night.
The entertainment committee Of the
Veteran Firemen met last evening at Fire
mems headquarters. Owing to the storm
some of the committee were unable to be
present. The subcommittee on music re-
ported that the Alpine Orchestra could be
secured either on Wednesday evening Feb.
%, or Thursday evening Feb. 20. 1t is
more than likely that Thursday evening
the 25th will be selected as the date OF the
ball and banquet. The committee on sup
per will report at a meeting OF the asso-
citation to be held next Wednesday evening
about the cost of the tickets. Bids have
been received ranging from 81 per couple
to $3.50 per couple.
The committee thinks that it will be un-
wise to set the price of tickets too high in
view of the fact that the times have been
so hard, and many of the members have
been out of work. The matter, however,
will be settled at the meeting. After the
banquet there will be speeches by promi-
nent city officials and invited guests.

FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Nose Carriages Prepared to Respond to
All Calls.

Hose Carriages Prepared to Respond to
All Calls.
Early yesterday morning Chief Engineer
Patt made the necessary arrangements
whereby the fire department would be
prepared to meet any emergency that
might arise. Usually, when storm
comes, particularly when 1t is fierce
enough to block ordinary locomotion,
there are several calls for the fire appa-
ratus. To meet such an emergency as
this Chief Patt ordered all the pieces Of
apparatus in the city to be stripped OF all
unnecessary weight. Several hundred feet
OF hose were taken off the different nose
carriages in order to make them as light as
possible. The hose, however, was loaded
on the regular supply or exercise wagons,
where 1t could be sent to the scene OF fire
IL the first load would be Inadequate TO
supply the demand. In time of peace pre-
pare for war is good policy to pursue,
and In taking these precautions Chief Patt
displayed excellent judgment.

STOLE SOME MONEY.

Central Falls Boy Arrested by the Paw
tucket Police.
A young lad giving the name of Charles
Bell, and living at 81 Congress street, this
city, was arrested by the Pawtucket police
yesterday afternoon. He was noticed
hanging around the Opera House in Paw
tucket, and apparently had lots of money
The circumstances looked suspicious and
he was taken to the police station and
questioned about the manner in which he
obtained the money. He finally admitted
that he stole $500 from his mother. At
the time of the arrest the boy was having
a good time treating his chums. Chief
Goldsmith was notified, and in turn he
notified theboy's parents. The matter was
settled up between the boy and his pa
rents, no prosecution taking place.

1t Is said that young lady In this city
with advanced ideas, and determination
worthy OF the sterner sex, was compelled
to do some shopping yesterday. But how
to overcome the fierce elements was another
question. The difficulty was soon solved
by her donning male attire in which they
say she looked stunning. Not bit back

her shopping as unconcernedly as IL she
were accustomed to wearing male gar
ments all her life.

At no place.in Rhode Island wasthe ef-

variety which allows the fierce winds and
