SOMETHING MUST BE DONE

I! There wa winter tone to the dis
cussion of the school trustees last
night. The ue1 proposition was brought
up and deIea ted at length. 1t was stat
ed that wood is needed and the ques-
ton of con tracts was discussed. While
no definite action was taken, it was
the sense of the board that something
must soon be- done toward laying in
fuel for rainy days. 1t was suggested
that as the Alice company was about
to close down and having 500 or 600
cords of wood on hand, the supply
committee correspond with the COM
pany with a view to purchasing the
wood
The question of Chief Janitor Trips
salary was also discussed. At the
opening of the schools. Mr.. Trip said
last night he was assured by Chair
Giard of the ianutor and supply COM
mittee that his request for an increase
of salary from 100 to 500 would be
considered at once However, the mat
ter has been held in allegiance. Last
night Mr. Lane moved that the board

Mr.. Trips salary, was ordered in

with this proposition it was stated by
a member that one reason the matter
was held back was some one had told
him that a certain newspaper man
had told somebody that if Trips sal
airy was raised the school board would
be given the darndest roasting it ever
had. Then the question silently arose:
WHO is that newspaper man." 1t
was agreed THAT after all may be the
man who made that threat was only
an alleged newspaper man.

MENACE TO PASTURE LANDS.
New Weed That Destroys Other yegeta-
ton Brought From Europe.

The orange hawkweed has made its
appearance in and around Chicago dur
ing the past season. 1t is a comparatively
new plant, having been introduced re
Gently from Europe. and although not
regarded in its native land as particu-
larly noxious, has become great nui-
sance here and threatens to destroy other
vegetation highly priced by gardeners and
arborcuturists.
The first American appearance of the
hawkweed was in Vermont. The seeds
We're distributed as a premium by one
of the leading agricultural journals Of
New York state. Within the last decade
the plant has been spreading a weed in
an alarming manner. Investigations at
the Vermont experiment station have
shown that it is already the worst weed
known. and is continuing each year to
invade new areas 1t is easily recognized
by its hammered flowers and spreading
hairy leaves. The first blossoms open in
June. Ii these are moved it continues to
send up scattering flower stalks during
the rest of the summer.
Fortunately clean cultivation will kill
it wherever practiced. One of the seri-
Gus difficulties is that the weed Is allowed
to spread along many roadsides to the
menace of the adjacent land. The really
great danger. however. is that 1t rapidly
invades the pastures, and when once fully
established in such places it is practl-
cally impossible to extermnate it. The
owners of such fields should carefully
guard them against it.. Every plant found
should be promptly uprooted, or. better
still, killed out by salt. The weed Is very
sensitive to salt, which should be scat
tered broadcast so as to reach the leaves
of all plants. If not too much salt is
used it may serve as a fertilizer to the
grass. The salt does not act as a poison,
but kills the weeds by drawing the water
out of the leaves. In order to act most
thoroughly. therefore, dry salt (not brine)
should be applied, and this should be done.

disturbance. Soldier-like, he asked for

his medicine. He was accordingly fined
the usual amount of $40 and went be-
low. Later some friend of his inform
ed Judge Sullivan he was an ex-so-

THE PORT OF BOTTLES.
A Spot From Which No Floating Flask
Can Get Away.

Can Get Away.
From the New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat.
There is a dead spot in the Carib-
bean sea- said the first officer of a Bra
lillian boat, chatting at the custom
house the other day, that ought to be
called the port of bottles. 1t lies very
nearly midway between Cartagena, in
Colombia, and Kingston. Jamaica, and
at guess I should say it was due east
of Cape Gracias a Dios. 1t is out of
the steamer tracks, and the action of
the great currents going one way and
another has left space of stagnant
water, without any. real movement at
ALL Anything that gets into the dead
spot is apt to stay there unless driv
en- out by some big storm, and will sim
ply drift round and round, gathering
sea grass and barnacles.
1.-The last time I saw the place was in
'95, when was on board a tramp from
Rio that had changed it's course a lit

American port While we We're passing
through we noticed floating SPAR and

fetal memoranda which was afterward
returned to the navy department with
data of when and where found. But
what is good deal more interesting Is
the fact that while we were securing
the buoy we discovered three bottles
sticking in the drift all covered with
weeds and slime. One was empty and
the other two had papers inside. The
first was a memoranda that the bottle
had been dropped from yacht off the

that it came from a ship bound for

each case it was evidently the whim
of some idle passenger, but it was odd
that we should find the whole collection

IT noticed lot of other driftwood in
the dead spot, and I am confident that
no end of bottles could be culled from

Walk ON GLOWING GOALS
Shinto Miracle Seen by Ameri-
cans in a Japanese Temple.
PROCESS OF PURIFICATION
No Chance OF Deception, as Many Visit
ors Felt the Heat-Barefooted
Priests and Others Stepped
Through the Fire.

We found our friends and went on again
a half hour more through the crowded
streets to the temple. There crowd was
gathered. 1t was about O'Clock and at
dark the priests were to begin to walk
over the fire--for that is what we were
there to see. Twice a year the gods are
prevailed on to take the heat from the
fire so that the devout may walk on it I'M
harmed The skeptics in our party out
numbered the believers, but you shall
see.
At the steps we must take off our
shoes, contribute our one yen to the sup
port of the temple. Arrangements had
been carefully made beforehand. and for
the Europeans a small veranda was re-
served directly opposite the whole length
of the fire and so close that our faces
grew hotter and hotter as 1t burned
brighter
Half Toxic was there: Russians and
French, Swiss, Germans. English,
Scotch. Americans. Some of us slipped
away to see the ceremony preceding the
fire walking. In the chancel as l may
call it for want of another word, two
rows of priests sat facing each other.
Several were in robes of white silk. one
in blue and one in green. The effect was
brilliant and made still more picturesque
by the close-fitting horse-hair caps with
long tails of the high priest and his subor-
dinates. After some muttered invocations
the high priest turned to a cupboard-like
shrine in one corner of the chancel. where
he burned incense and performed other
acts of devotion, apparently. Behind him
in &No long lines like a flying wedge in a
football game knelt the other priests, now
Joined by two women of the temple with
reverent faces.
The half-intone service was not unlike
a Gregorian chant, and was accompanied
by a continuous response from the con-
gregation. Throughout the latter part
we stood in the doorway Of one of the
temple apartments opening out of the
chancel. Here refreshments were pro-
vided for guests, oranges, tea (o-and
for courtesy not for payment Later in
response to thanks. the high priest pre-
scented his card to one Of the visitors.
AS the priests filed out of the temple
we took our places on the veranda, pro-
ceeding less easy than it sounds, as We
had to find ourselves places on the all
ready crowded floor and sit or kneel in
them as gracefully as might be. The bed
of charcoal was already lighted when We
arrived, and was now fully on fire. 1t
was. we agreed. some 16 feet long, feet
wide and perhaps a foot deep. 1t was in
a space fenced off from the courtyard,
and on the side opposite us the crowd of
men, women and children pressed the
barrier. The fire was at present covered
with ashes, but soon attendants entered
the open space and with long handled
fans blew away the gray covering and
famed the charcoal until it was a mass
Of blazing, glowing ,smbers. Little flames
sprang up over it in all directions, and
