"Nor l." said Marvin.
"Me, too" said Gregory.
"And I didn't tell you fellows, be-
cause" Upper went on, 81 was afraid if
Jackins failed you'd laugh. intended
to tell you afterward. I've felt pretty
mean when you've both been so good
helping me out, and all that"
Mrs. Jackins came in,with flour on her
hands ands an odor of spices about her.
Look here, the lot of you" she said;
"Jackins, too, If you don't tell that lit
tie fellow all about it, I'll tell myself.
Honey" she called Upper so some
times, he was such little chap, "your
friends have been doing just the same.
Two hours every week, and Marvin'd
say, "Jacltins, be sure you don't tell
Gregory and Topper and Gregory'd
say, Jaclins, don't tell the others, just
like you'd stand out, %, Jacl1ins, what
ever you do, don't tell 'em!' And here's
poor Jacl1ins been working like mad,
and so much obliged to you all, and feel
ing so mean, knowing all the time and
not daring to tell; though how you
kept it from each other is a wonder.
Girls couldn't. Girls'd told each other
long ago."
Marvin and Gregory did not go into
detail. Both told Upper he was first
class, and then they sat around the
table while Jacldns attacked odd para
graphs in the new book in a very loud
voice, or wrote sentences with so much
effort that perspiration stood in beads
on. his forehead.
For the first time in a long while
the boys crossed the campus arm in
arm. They sang one of their most
absurd songs, with Tupper's shrill
treble high above the others.
The head master lookedIup from the
heap of exercises he was correcting.
MATTERS have arranged themselves"
he thought, and smiled good-naturedly
as he went back to his work.
Jackins' examination came off in
April. DR.. Shoreditch's boys had half
holiday, They went up to town and
waited around the rooms in which the
trial was held until Jackins came out
"passed."
Then there were n great many cheers
and shouts, and caps thrown up in air
and struggles for each to obtain his
own, and rush down to the station,
where Jackins' engine in little while
was made gay with bunting and looked
as festive as possible. In fear and
trembling Jackins had FURNISHED all
the brasses in the morning If he sue
ceeded, well-if not, it would be equally
well to have the work properly done, 8,
Mrs. Jackins was on the train, very
proud and happy. There was more than
the usual number of passengers. DR..
Shoreditch and some of the masters
had gone to hear the result of the trial.
They scarcely knew whether they re-
spected Jackins more for his 30 years
of honest and painstaking work on the
road, or for his courage in beginning
so late the struggle with neglected OPP
portunities.
AS for Jackins, he sent his engine
speeding over the rails, and all the
people who had not gone to town, but
who were interested in his examination,
knew he had passed when they heard
the series of jublant sounds blown
hither and thither from the whistle of
the down train.-Youth's Companion.

"It is perfectly true"

1t happened, oddly enough that Ards-
ley CHANGED not to have heard of Miss
Hampden's reputation by the next
night. He was rudely awakened to
knowledge of 1t. There were private
theatricals in the hoproom, and Miss
Hampden was the leading lady. Now
the sutton was quite recovered, and be
meant to play joke on those in the
audience who were not-and these were
some eight or ten, three of them mar
ried. He proposed to the heroine in
nicely read lines, and was rejected by
her with perfection that spoke her
practice. So the audience thought; and
it laughed. When the laugh had sub
sided, the hero arose from his knees.
Gle walked to the footlights and signed.
! "Ah! WELL" hesaid," have one crumb
of comfort. 1 am not the only man in
this place who is in the same fix"
The astounded Ardsley looked about
him, and he picked out the entire num-
Der by their faces. Miss Hampden
dropped her head in her hands and
laughed with the rest.
Between the acts, Ardsley made in
quiries, and learned the truth. He was

New YORK March l0,-Through the

displays have been planned for the
charter day celebration in May. The
committee has secured for the cele-
bration all the manholes of the sub
ways in Broadway and Fifth avenue,
and in them the electricians will rig
powerful electric search lights. The
holes will be covered with griddle-
like arm and blades of light will shoot
heavenward in great elongated lines,
forming the flag Of the United States
with the stars uppermost. The lights
will be powerful enough to cast the
reflections thousands of feet in the
sky. From the battery to Central
park will be stretched miles of wire,
hung thickly with colored globes and
an alternating current will be shot
through them,

LIFE INSURANCE AND WAR.
Companies Considering Casea OF Policy.
Holders Who May Go out of the
Country to Fight.

WASHINGTON, March l7.-The pros.
poets of war have caused many in
quiries to be made of insurance com.
panies as to the action which the com.
panies would take on the policies Of
those who might go to the front A
Washington insurance agent, who is
well informed as to the status of the
question, said:
The life insurance companies In the country
are considering the course they would adopt
toward their policy-holders In the event OF
war The principal danger involved is from
epidemlcs and deaths from fevers and other
climatic causes. The policies of most compa-
MES prohibit travel and residence In localities
where epidemics are prevailing, as in the West
indies at certain seasons of the year This re-
striction has been found necessary on account
OF the great mortality In those localities The
officers OF the army and navy who are insured
hold policies in which their military Occupa-
tion Is recognized, and permits for travel resi-
dence and war service are given upon terms
specified in the policy. II the organized ma
tional guard OF the states should be ordered
into service the conservative insurance compa-
MES would probably put them upon the same
footing Us the members Of the regular army
The case would probably be otherwise with
persons who might enlist for war service and
whose motive for taking out insurance would
be the extra hazards to which they would be
exposed during the war.

CHICAGO HOLOCAUST.
Unknown Number Perish in a Build
ing Opposite HCtel Wellington.
Two Men Jumped Six 3 OrIes to Their
DeRth-seventeen Are Missing and
80 Injured Fire WAS In Six
story building.

CHICAGO, March T.-It required just
20 minutes yesterday afternoon for one
of the most savage fires that Chicago
has seen since the famous cold storage
warehouse fire on the worlds fair
grounds in 1898 to take anywhere from
five to Is lives, main 80 people and re-
duce a siX-story brick building on Wa
bash avenue to pile of blazing tim
bers, red-hot bricks and twisted iron.
Two men leaped six stories 'and were
dashed to pieces. The number of dead
is still in doubt and probably will not
be definitely known until the debris of
the building is sufficiently cooled to
admit OF search being made for the
bodies of those who are undoubtedly
in the ruins, This will be two days
hence at least
The building was occupied by num-
her of concerns, some of them employ
ing lSrge numbers Of people. 1t is es-
timated that 400 people were at work
in the building when the fire was dis
covered. The origin of the fire is in
dispute. By some it is said to have
been caused by an explosion of col.
lodion in the wall paper rooms of AL.
fred Peats on the third floor, and by
others to have been the result of an
explosion among some Photographic
chemicals in the Photographic supply
house of Sweet, Wallach & Co., on the
sixth floor. Employees of both con.
Germs deny that there was any explo.
sion in their vicinity.
The sound of the explosion threw
the inmates of the building into a
panic and on several floors a wild
stampede began for the stairways and
elevators, To add to the panic the
men in charge of the elevators ran
their cars up to the top of the build
ing, shouting Fire" at every floor,
When they reached the top both ele.
vators took on load of frightened
women and started for the bottom.
After reaching the bottom of the shaft
with their load of girls and about to
start up again the supports of the ele.
vator machinery at the top of the
shaft caught fire and prevented them
from going up again. Several persons
made their way to the front windows
and jumped out and were dashed on
the pavement below.
The building and contents are a
total loss. In less than half an hour
after the fire broke out the structure
was level with the ground. 1t was OF
what is known as "mill construction,
with front of plate-glass and iron
columns The occupants were the
