AndreW Jackson to tie Rescue

A certain lsndIady Of Washington
had q boarder, young man working
in one of the departments, who he'd
run up O large account, which he final
ly refused to pay.
Some friends having advised her tc
60 and see the President about it, she
took this iocular advice seriously and
went to him with her tale of woe. He
received her kindly and listened at
tentirely to what she narrated, and
then said:
"Go home and get that young man
to give you q note for the full amount
then bring that note to me-"
The debtor was quite willing to give
her note, having no intention what
ever of paying it, and she took it te
the President as directed. who seized
his famous old steel pen aud scrawled
across its back, Endorsed by Andrew
Jackson"
"Now, take that to the bank and
get your money. Ii the young rascal
refuses to pay it, why, We'll see!''
The note was taken to the bank, and
some time before it became due the
customary notification was sent to the
reca.citrant debtor; but he paid nc
attention to it. Then word was sent
that he had better come and see. who
his indorser was. He went; he saw:
what his feelings were mas not been
recorded, but he paid the note

PUBLIC SCHOOLS FOR CUBA.
Enough Teachers to Be Sent to 1nfnse tho
American Spirit.

At the request OF the President Pro-.
fesscr William T. Harris, Superin-
tendent of the Bureau of Education.
has prepared plan for g public school
system in Cuba, the result Of caretal
investigation OF the conditions o3the
island, which was put in the hsnds of
The President recently. 1t :Till re.
ceive the attention of the Cabinet at
the next meeting and Preliminary
steps will be. taken in ths' immediate
future, The Presidents greatly in.
terested in the matter. He desires
that the schools shall begin with the
revival of industry and trade, and re-
lies upon the school system to be an
early object lesson to the Cubans IN
the blessings OF good government,
which the United States proposes to
give them.
This is not the first time the Bureau
3f Education tas been called upon to
frame O public school system for A
Spanish-American country. On several
occasions the United States has been
asked to assist other Governments on
this hemisphere in the inauguration
of new educational methods. The
late Horace Mann organized tue
school system Of the Argentine Re-
public. Professor Harris advises that
experts be selected in this country
and sent to Cuba 10 put the system III
working order; that the island be dis:
tricted and the supervisors be named
to take charge of the districts, who
shall be the medium between the ez
| perts and the teachers. For teacher:
Professor Harris advises the use O.
, all of the material which can be foune
! in Cuba, but he expresses the opinion
that it will be necessary to emplo.
some from the United States. Th'
children are to be taught in botl
Spanish and English. The idea i

to infuse the American spirit into

In February 1897, the Betsy Gains

heavy ga.o from east-southeast and
bore mp from Shields harbor. The
sea was raging on Tynemouth bar;
the ship struck, was driven upon the

that was lost in the year 1927? Will

that in 1888 brought over to England
William Prince Of Orange, and that
she was then called the Princess Mary?
This, at all events, was claimed for her
How cd was she when she carried the
