they had been barred a few times from
public places where they believed they
had the right to be present. AS officers
of the law they can go anywhere now
and with the authority of a policeman
they can perform the work of news
gatherers.
Fears were expressed at first that the
reporters would Overstep the bounds
of their authority after they had been
commissioned. but it has never yet
been done. They are under the au
thority of the board of commissioners
and amenable to the law the same as
the regular patrolmen. Should one of
them violate the regulations laid down
for the guidance of policemen his com
mission would. be revoked and he
would find himself a plain reporter
once more, minus his star and club.
Unusual adventures accompany the
new roles of the reporters since they
have been made policemen. and others
are yet 10 be experienced. no doubt.
Four of them have been arrested on
the charge of carrying concealed weap-
ons, but they were liberated again
when il became known that they were
vested with the same authority as the
man who made the arrest. One of
them was compelled to club a man who
resisted arrest. and the clubbing was
done as scientifically as the most eX-
perienced man or the force could have
performed it.
1t is noticeable that the personal en-
emies of the reporters are very quiet,
and retractions are believed to be a
thing of the past in st. Joseph. The
policemen-reporters have more author
ity than they have ever enjoyed be-
fore, and SO far they have been careful
to not abuse it. They are no longer
compelled to waste valuable time
awaiting the pleasure of an autocratic
officer or someone with self-assumed
authority when there is an item be-

utes he has gathered the facts as they
really exist, and not as they come to
him distorted by several repetitions
Since the reporters have been com
missioned it is noticed that the
amount of news gathered by them is
nearly twice as great. Its volume the
first day was too much for them to
handle, but the novelty has worn off
considerably by this time. In detective
work the reporters have already out
done the secret service men of the city
force. and many times have been of
great service to the regular detectives.
One or two of them have made good
captures and scoops" at the same
time The chief advantage is that they
can now get at facts instead of being
compelled to accept rumors and sift,

Comfort for Women,

Some time ago Pullman's Palace Car
company built three parlor cars for
the +. & O'S New York trains, and the
radical departure from other cars OF
this character lay in the toilet room
for ladies, which was eight feet in
length. Recently the same company
has built eight new sleepers for the
New York-St. Louis line Of the B. & o.,
and the designer of the cars has evil
IDENTIFY been impelled by the popular
ity of the ladies' retiring room in the
parlOr cars to give to the ladies vast
deal more space than they ever had be-
fore in sleeping cars These new cars
are said by the Pullman people to be
the finest they ever turned out, and
the ladies' retiring room is exceeding
~ commodious, and contains, besides
other toilet necessities, dresser WITH
a long pier glass. The cars are fin
ished in vermillion wood, decorated
with inlaid marquetry work, and the
upholstery on the backs and seats Is
entirely new and different from any
heretofore used, being a sort of a mo-
Quette with a dark green border and
center pattern of bright color A SIM
liar design of ornamentation has been
applied to the ceiling, giving the car
an arabesque effect They are also
supplied with all the modern appIi-
ances. such as wide vestibuleS, anti
telescoping device, air pressure water
system and are lighted with Pintsch
gas. A very pleasing effect is obtained
by the oval windows of opalescent
glass, the first that has been used in
the construction OF the sleeping cars.

learned that the commissions given the
reporters by the police board are not
jokes by any means. They regarded
them as such until they felt the weight
OF club. Threats have been made OF
lawsuits on account of the commits
sions, but the members of the board
have found that the appointments are
legal. They have the right to appoint
any number of special officers, and
there is nothing in the law to prevent
them from comforting the power upon
the reporters. The experiment is so
new that it is practically untried yet.

there if he feels inclined TO do so. The
reporters are al policemen. A short
time ago the police commissioners
gave all the reporters commissions,
veStlng them with the right 10 wear
stars and carry clubs and with all the
powers Of the patrolmen. The report
ers are not expected TO perform any
OF the work of the patrOlmen, OF
course and they do not draw salaries
from the city. but they are peace Off
GERS and can make arrests. While the
experiment has not been given a thor
Ough trial, the police commissioners
believe it Will prove success. Sew
eral OF the reporters have already made
arrests in the absence of the regular
patrolmen, sending the prisoners to
the station in the patrol wagon. They
have quelled disturbances on several
occasions. and the commissioners find
that they have added to the force

New Art Education i'm the Sout h.

One of the most pleasing signs OF
the times in our southern states is the
widespread interest being shown in
technical education. There the indus
trial conditions have undergone
marked changes within a few years.
In many sections the planter is giving
way to the manufacturer, and the lat
ter usually with northern training
and capital, is already competing with
success, especially in the lines of iron
and steel and wooden and cotton goods,
with older concerns elsewhere. Under
several acts of congress these states.
with all others. have been encouraged
to establish agricultural and mercan-
tile colleges that are usually attached
to state universities and are similarly
controlled. Excellent as most Of these
are. it is doubtful if there are any
that really answer the demands Of the
day The new movement is most in
timately related to these interests that
are building up the south as d manu-
featuring section. In the heart of the
cotton and wOolen-mill center OF
Georgia, and under the direction OF
the Atlanta Technical School, a. spe-
cial textile school is being erected and
equipped. and the same is being done
in similar places in the two Carolinas.
These schools are projected on the
model of those in many of the chief
manufacturing cities of Europe, and

A FATHERS STORY.

From the Ercning Crescent, Ippleton, Wis.
A remarkable cure for disease which
has generally wrecked the lives of children,
and left them in a condition to which death
itself would be preferred, has attracted a
great amount of attention among the res
idents of the west end of Appleton.
The case is that of little Willard Creech
son of Richard ID. Creech, a well known
enplOye of one OF the large paper mills in
the Fox River Valley. The lad was attacked
by spinal disease and his parents had given
APP all hope of his ever being well again
when, as by miracle. he was healed and is
now in school as happy as any of his mates.
Mr.. Creech. the father of the boy. who
resides at 1862 Second Street, Appleton,
Wisconsin, told the following story:
