Police sp,cs In Rux,,..

The police regulate in Russia every step
Of every man, woman or child in tho coun-
try. II a Russian wishes to visit his sister
or brother in the next town, he must ask
permission of a policeman, and this costs
time as well as money. At every railway
station the policeman is tho most conspicu-
GUS object on the platform, even though
it be but an insignificant village. A po-
liccman not merely patrols the streets of
tho towns and the highways of the coun-
try, but enters without other authority
than his uniform into the house of any one,
and there examines the private affairs Of
wholnsoever he chooses to suspect.
If the policeman discovers letter with
any expressions that can possibly be twist
ed into disloyalty or if he finds book for
hidden by the censor or sees on the walls
picture of, say, George Washington or
Kosciuszko or any one else suggestive Of
liberty, he may denounce the people Of the
house as guilty of treason and bring them
before secret tribunal, where no regard
is paid to forms of law and where sentence
is swiftly passed, generally In the shape Of
transportation to Siberia. Poultney Bige-
low in Youths Companion.

A New appointment.

On account of the very large IN
crease in attendance at Marshall
Normal the appointment of another
teacher became an imperative neces
sity. 1t should be matter of i'm
portance and interest to our people
that the attendance during the fall
term was as heavy as that of any
other two normal schools in the
state together, and barring Fair
mont it exceeds that of the three
others combined. This made the
employment of another teacher
at Marshall necessary and the State
Board Of Regents filed the place
yesterday in the appointment of
Prof. Roy Roger, of Feirmont, who
will occnpy the department of Nat
ural Science and Latin.-Hunting-

bered.


The church friends of Professor
Wiley and DIR. Coombs surprised
them both on Christmas by present
ing each with very elegant easy
chair. For long time DR.. Coombs
has been the leader of the Methodist
choir and has given it much time
and frequently stood the expense
alone. In recognition of this the
members of the choir decided to
present him with fine chair as a
token of their appreciation of his
services. A few outside friends we're
allowed to contribute so the $40
necessary to buy it were soon col
lected
Pro5. Wiley has been superinten-
dent of the NJ. f Sunday School for
number of years and has given
the work much time and thought
and has a remarkably successful an
interesting school. A move was
made a few days before Christmas
to also present him fine chair very

very short time the funds were
raised. On Sunday morning at the
close of the session the chair was
brought in bearing bright little girl
who carried flowers followed by a
file of youngsters who each carried a
floral offering and Dir. d. G. Hof-
man stepped forward and in a very
neat, elegant and appropriate speech
presented the chair to the Superin-
tendent. For time he was some
what overcome but soon rallied and
acknowledged it in very touching
manner. Everybody was happy and
all wished they could do more to
show how they valued the services
of both gentlemen who are the lead
ers in the church.

AN INTERESTING SUIT.
Squire Parker will hear. school case
ON Saturday at Granville = Election
day the bone of contention.

The Board of Education of Grant
district has been sued by one of the
teachers of that district and the
teacher is determined to have the pay
for the day. He claims that the day
is set apart as a holiday by the state
and that the school law allows him to
take advantage of that fact without
losing the money which he would earn
il he would go ahead and teach as
usual.
When the law was passed every
state holiday was included In the
number on which school did not have
to be taught and since that time
election day has been made a legal
holiday. The trial of the case will
come up on Saturday before Squire
Parker at Granville.
All the other teachers Of the dis
trict have accepted the discount while
all the other districts of the county
have allowed the teachers the day
without making them teach.
