wv SCHOOL MA'AMS.
Lost Their Purses In A Mysterious
And peCulidr WdV.


A good story is told on Two of Ell
Paso's young school ms'ams, Miss Dix
and Miss Fitzpatrick.
The Incident related about them oc-
Cured at the home of Mrs. Wright,
corner of North Stanton and Idaho,
where both the school teachers have
rooms.
Miss Dix and Miss Fitzpatrick enter
ed their room after returning from
shopping. Miss Dix laid her purse on
the bed and both the young women left
the room.
They returned in a few moments to
find that the purse had disappeared
during their absence. They were con-
siderably agitated and made q frantic
effort to discover the missing pocket
book.
In the excitement that .ensued Miss
Fitzpatrick laid down her PURGE and
both the school ma'ams rushed out of
the room to notify Mrs. Wright. Mrs.
Wright returned to the room with
them and then Miss Fitzpatrick almost
rel into hysterics and %clasping her
hands exclaimed hat her purse, too,
had disappeared during their brief alb.
sence.
Some one suggested ''spooks'' and
the three women almost tainted and
we're completely mystifed. There
was no servant o q no one in the
house to suspect. After mature de-
liberation the mysterious theft was
laid at the door of a Mexican woman,
discharged some days before.

d.. J. B. Crozier, a Canadian phvsi-

vice he once sought about going in for
literature DR.. Crozier, in reply to the
old mans query as 10 what authors he
knew, mentioned John Stuart Mill
Carlyle broke out:
ooh, aye, poor Mill He used to
come TO me here with his Benthamism,
his radicalism, his greatest number,
and q that nonsense but had to tell
him at last it was a moonshine, and he
didna like it. But he was & thin, wire
drawn. sawdustish, logic chopping kind
of body, was poor Mill When his book
on liberty came out, he sent me a copy
of it TO read, but l just had to tell him
that didn't agree with a single word
of il from beginning to end He was
offended, and never came back to me.
The doctor tried Buckle:
''Of all the blockheads by whom this
bewildered generation has been deluded
that man Buckle was the greatest. '''

head, and one more full Of empty, bar
