CHICAGO, June 29-Mrs. Emmons

poses to do great things in Chicago with
some Of the money her father made there,
The young widow has within month
perfected plans for establishing two
unique schools, at a cost of 100000.
On the top of this she startled the town
by filing with the assessor an honest
schedule of her personal property, naming
her wealth In that class at 81, 563, 900.
This is the largest individual schedule
ever filed in Cook county. Only the trusts
and corporations exceed it.
''I believe it is the duty of the rich to
pay their share of the taxes" said Mrs.
Blaine ''If that were done there would
not be so much complaint. and the bur
dens would not be SO heavy on the poor.

EDUCATION OF HER CHILD.
Emmons Blaine, her only child, is be-
ing educated along lines suggested by his
mother. During the kindergarten period
only one person at a time was allowed
in the room with the youngster. This
rule is still in force. His temperature is
taken every day and his diet is prepared
of the most nutritious foods and specially
cooked for him, Every day the tutor
must make written report on the pupil
and offer any suggestions that he may
deem advisable.
These ideas are not all to be carried
out in the school for poor children which
Mrs. Blaine will establish on the West
side. The kindergarten system will be
the feature. The social life of the chill
dren viii be cultivated In every possible
way. A large garden and play ground
will be attached to the school There
will be a small, welI-appointed theater
in which entertainments. lectures and
stereopticon shows will be given
The school will be conducted day, even
ings and Sundays 1t will be nonsectar-
ian and the teachers will be the best af-
forded by the pedagogical school faculty
The sum of 100000 will be devoted to this
school.

SPANIARDS VS.. BRITISH.
The Spanish oppressed their subjects
far more than the British ever oppressed
us. They held South America in serVi-
tude for 300 years. They would not al
low the people to be educated. One of
the Spanish kings, upon receiving a petit
ton for the establishment of a school in
one of the towns, said: II do not con-
slider learning proper in America" The
South Americans were not allowed to
read certain histories of the United
States, and the sale of books of any kind
without the sanction of the council Of
the West Indies was prohibited. All Of
the officials during the Spanish regime
were appointed from Spain. Out of 100
vicerOys there were only four who were
not Spanish, and CT 500 captains general
only fourteen were born In. America.

Brazil than in the United States. One
Of the funny things about a South
American city is the fagpoles. They jut
out from every house and every story.
No one would think of putting up bust
ness block without fagpOles. In the main
streets the fagpoles from the buildings
opposite each other almost meet, and
when the streets are narrow, as in the
case of the Ouvidor, the main thorough
fare of Rio de Janeiro, the flags form
canopy or arbor over the people below.
Many of the cities arch their principal
streets with iron gas pipes upon which
are globes of different colors. On indie
pendonce night these globes are ablaze
with lights and the national colors show
out everywhere. The decoration Of Mon
tevideo Rosario and Rio de Janeiro IS
remarkable as to its gaslights.

lance from Para to New York is over
$500 miles. The time required is twelve
days, and the fare was $50.
My whole South American tour, from
New York to New York, including the in

at times very heavy and at times COM

between 80 and $40 gold day.
AS whole the travelling is not unpleas-

very comfortable, and those of the South

hotels in the large cities are fair and

WHAT KILLS A TOWN.

People in too many communities
waste their time In making faces. They
will wreck their own interests In TO-
iuring someone else. They permit
envy and jealousy to blind their judg-
ment and dominate their actions.
To build up q town people must pull
together, not pull down. In private
business they must compete. 10 the
public business they must cooperate.
Any other policy is silly and suicidal,
and is the evidence OF small mind.
New communities stand together
better than old ones, in which are
animosities Of long standing, social
and professional rivalries and deep
seated grudges. Hence, tho oldest
residents very frequently become
bigoted and stubborn and mean. and
first class funerals become public
blessings. A man who has grown
imperious and prosperous, otF q COM
munlty until he cares nothing for it,
stands in the way OF its progress, and
eau serve it in no better way as we'll
as getting out OF it.-Pierce City

Not a Lean Year.

There is popular impression, which
has led to many mistakes, that 1900 is "A
lean year. Turner's Almanac corrects
this mistake and says:
When the change was made From
'old style" to new style" by dropping
eleven days out of the year, it was
known that the exact length of the year
was not 365A days, but 800 days, five
hours forty-eight minutes and fifty Sec
onds. and this difference Of eleven min
utes was sought to be equaized by de-
Gliding that the years ending the centu-
ries should not be leap years excepting
when they were divisible by four hum
dred, as other leap years are thus divisi-
BILE by four Thus 1900 is not leap
year but the years 2000 and 2400 will
