Detroit. Mich, May 3O.-The legisla-
tive committee that is investigating the
charge of cruel treatment of girls in the

fed to holding girls hands while Mrs.
Lucy Sickles, the superintendent. gave
her % or 80 blows with rubber tubing
split into pieces. She had also seen
girls mouths covered with court plas-
ter for answering back.
Mrs. Helen NJ. RabcOck, a former
housekeeper at the school, testified that
the beatings the girls got were sicken-
ing. One girl, who had been imperti-
nent, was stripped, placed on a lounge
and beaten numerically on the bare
limbs with trunk strap.

kill the girl if she did not cry.

Finest view in the World.
IFrom Parsons Weekly


The greatest extent of the earth's sur
face which can be seen from one spot
depends on two circumstances: First.
the elevation above the sea level, and
secondly, the absence of intervening OBJ
stacles such as may obstruct the line
of sight.
The point that best satisfies these
conditions is the Nevada of Cayambe.
a peak on the line of the equator in the
north of the Andes, rising 1885 feet
above the sea.
This has been described by travellers
as the most notable landmark in the
world. 1t commands from it's position
the whole valley of the Amazon, and
the view in this direction, over low
lying country, is absolutely unlimited
except by the horizon.
1t has an equal range toward the
northwest, and it's line of view stretches
right across the Gulf of Panama
Though the country toward the south
is mountainous, it encounters no higher
peak.
1t is only toward the southwest that
it's view crosses Chimborazo which is
higher, but Is surrounded on all sides
by high peaks, and consequently does
not embrace so wide an extent of coun-
try.
The Peerless Steam Laundry has put
on the latest device for smoothing the
edges of collars and cuffs.
