HIS HIGH AMBITION.

Washington Star: The pinkest-ch eeked
and protest girl in the Pine mountain
school was Mandy Martin, and the big
Sest and aWkWardest boy was James X.
Polk Garyi1l. Jim, as he was %populariy
known, was II years Old. and came of a
somewhat more ambitious family thar
were the families of most of his school,
mates. as his father was a constab BILE,
and had at one time been assessor and
road supervisor. For some reason the
boy had fallen into the sulks, and for a
month the teacher had been able to do
so little with him that, as a last resort,
she had sent him down to the lumber
-company'a store for me to talk to him.
"Well, James," 1 said, in my kindliest
manner, after giving him a chew of fine
cut tobacco, which he greatly admired
Il am sorry to see a boy OF. your ability
acting as you V been doing lately,
neglectlng your studies and proving a
burden to your teacher instead Of a help.
| You've got the making of a good man in
you, and some day you may be a con-
stable, as our father is
Il con wGnter be no constable" he an
swered, keeping his eyes on a knot hole
in the fioor that he was trying to jab his
toe into.
l was rather glad to find hi WAS more
ambitious, and Went at him again, hope
fully.
Possibly YOU may be sheriff. who
knows [ suggested.
81 don't wanter be no sheriff, neither
ne. Well, there's o reason, if YOU
will study hard and be a good hoy, why
you shouldn't be the county judge some
day"
Il don't wanter be 10 judge" he said,
as if a judgeship were a very common
thing.
who knows, James, T went on en-
coura gingly, "but some day you will be
ton
81 don't wanter be no congressman
neither
"That isn't your only chance, my boy
I continued. thinking he was even more
ambitious than l had suspected; you
may be governor of the state"
81 don't wanter be no gov'ner," he said.
quite as sulky as ever.
There weren't many more rises that
could offer, but l concluded to try the
| best I had.
"Then look to the presidency, James"
II ventured. Men nave become presi-
dents who have had no better start thar
| you have. You may be president, blu,
you will have to study and do better than
| you are doing now"
81 don't wanter be no president" he
replied, cven more doggedly than before,
If that We're possible.

gan to think that possibly we had All
embryo Napoleon in Il midst.
WELL" I said, somewhat annoyed and
perplexed. .'if you don't want to be pres
ident, what do you want?'
He jabbed his toe at the knot hole
more desperately than ever and hung his
head lower.
IL he hesitated, IT wanter be
Mandy Martins best Teller. er l don
wanter be nothin'."
That put the case out of my jurisdic-
ton and I sent James back to the teache,
and made my report later.

WITH THE POLITICIANS
Republican Committeeman Think
Ward Five is SoIidIy Placed

At republican headquarters, last
night, Leon Rice Partridge, chairman
Of the city committee, and number
of members met and talked over the
election. They had much to congra-
tulate themselves upon, particularly
the phenomenal plurality of Mayor
Dodge and the redemption of ward
five, which is now considered solidly
and permanently republican.
School Committeeman Henry F. Har-
ris is of the opinion that Worcester
should have 70 wards. The city has
outgrown the original s. which are now
much too large. The change can be
effected by getting permission from the
legislature to amend the city charter.
He believes that minority representa-
ton should be abolished, if for no other
reason but that it is the cause of all
sorts of troubles annually. Worcester,
too, should have nine representatives
in the general court.
Representative ]. P Munroe was
highly pleased with the vote in Bos-
ton on the relaying Of the tracks on
fremont street Mr. Munroe was a
member Of the House committee on
street railways, and he opposed this
scheme That he voiced the opinion of
the majority of the citizens of Boston
is seen in the defeat of the plan.
There is to be an anti-Myers meet
ing In Boston today and all the Wor-
cester republican members are to at
tend it.

Goldman Elected

Portland, Me. Dec. 13.-Rev Robert
Goldman, Jr., of st. Johns church, Bos-
ton was chosen bishop of the Episco-
pal diocese of Maine today at the con-
vention, which was held at st. Luke's
cathedral TO select a successor to
Bishop Henry Nealy.
The nomination was made in very
short order, after the convention got to
work. The clergy, voting separately,
chose Rev. Robert Goldman, Jr., on the
first ballot. The laity, voting separate
ly, gave Mr.. Goldman all but four votes.
Rev Robert Goldman Jr., who was
today elected bishop of Maine to succeed
the late Bishop Nelly, is a son of Rob-
ert Goldman, the lawyer, resides at 173
RoXbury street, Boston, and is 81 years
old. He was graduated from Harvard.
studied law and was admitted to the
bar. After practicing several years, the
death of his brother, Rev Archibald
Goldman, led him to give up the legal
profession and enter the ministry. He
studied theology, was ordained a few
years ago and was assigned to St.
Johns Episcopal church, Boston High
lands, this constituting his first and
only charge. He declines to say wheth-
er or not he will ACCEPT this bishopric.

CLUE TO BURGLAR
SHOT AT DEEP RIVER
Supposed to Be a Man Named
FEE. King, Formerly Employ
ed on Boston & Albany

Deep River, Conn.,, Dec. ia clue
which it is believed reveals almost to
a certainty the identity of the person
who was shot and instantly killed this
morning, as he and three companions
We're endeavoring to force an entrance
into the Deep River Savings bank, was
found on the dead mans person late
this afternoon, in the form of receipt
for post office money order.
The order. which was issued at
Springfield, Mass, Dec. 4, is numbered
1743 and was purchased by F. e. King.
1t was issued to T. j. Farley, and the
latter has been located in New York,
where he is employed as a bartender
at resort in the Tenderloin known as
the Skates"
King is supposed to be the dead man.
Farley has been communicated with
and admitted knowing King. His de-
scription of the man tailed in many
respects with that of the man that
was slain by Waterman Tyler. He said
that King formerly lived in Albany,
N. Y. and was a brakeman in the en-
ploy of the Boston and Albany rail-
road. but further than that he could
give but little information.
Medical Examiner French said this
morning, after examining the body,
that the man might have been ma
chinist as his hands were considerably
calloused and there were evidences of
oil and CRIME about his person that
suggested it, but the same would be
applicable if the man had been engaged
as a brakeman.
