One Trial Was Sufficient for Him.

tFrom the Chicago News
AS police court prosecutor. aspirant for
consulship, and other political honors
Carl Nippert has had a number of unusual
experiences, but he himself is authority
for the statement that the richest joke
of which he was ever the victim was play
ed by himself. Years ago, before he be-
came a successful lawyer, Mr.. Nippert was
a schoolteacher and principal of a certain
school in which the boys were rather un-
ruly; in fact they were youthful despera-
does and the situation called for decisive
action. One day when the boys were par
ticularly bad Mr.. Nippert sent ten of them
to the principals room to receive corporal
punishment, and repaired there a few
minutes later with light rattan. One of
the boys was somewhat larger than the
rest, and Mr.. Nippert decided to start with
the largest and grasping the boy proceed
ed to "lay 1t on" The boy seemed dunn
founded. but offered no resistance. nor did
he let out whimper. Finally, Mr.. Nippert
said Haven't you had enough?'
Il should say have, but don't belong
to this school,"
You don't belong TO this school? What
are you doing here?'
Il was sent here to collect bill, and
they sent me to the principals room,
whimpered the now frightened boy.
Lets see the BILL" said Mr.. Nippert.
The boy produced bundle of bills and
drew from the bundle one for books fur
nished Mr.. Nippert by a publishing firm
Mr.. Nippert turned all colors and said:
why didn't you tell me this sooner?'
You didn't give me any chance; you
started to lambast me before l could say
anything"
Just how he got the boy out Of the
schoolhouse without the scholars and
| teachers finding out what had happened
Mr.. Nippert refuses to say but as soon a:
school closed he hurried to the store o.

NEWS FROM GEORGETOWN.
Citizens Discuss the Matter of New
Truckhouse site.

Truckhouse Site.
The appropriation of SD 600 made by
Congress yesterday for the building of and
equipment of a new truck house in
Georgetown has been the subject of much
discussion today. The opinion is freely
expressed that should an effort be made
10 locate the building in the lower part
of town IL will receive the opposition of
the Citizens Association. On account Of
the large number of public buildings on
the Heights Of Georgetown there viii be
q strong effort to have the quarters of the
company located there.
Mrs. Susan Okie has commenced the
erection Of four modern brick dwellings
on Thirty Street, between w and
V Streets. II is understood that Mrs.
oakie intends TO cover a piece of ground
extending from Thirty fourth TO Thirty
second and from " to V streets with
blocks OF houses similar TO the one now in
the course Of construction.
After much delay. the District authori-
ties have sent force of men TO George
town 10 clear away the ice and snow which
still remains in large quantities on the
streets in the business sections of the
town, notably along the greater part of NJ
Street from Rock Greek TO the Union Sta
tion. The mud and filth which cover the
streets in many parts of town is becoming
a positive menace to the health of the COM
munity, say the physicians. Within the
past two weeks there has been a decided
increase in the amount of sickness. Diph-
liberia has increased and grip and throat
troubles prevail A number of old citizens
who are acquainted with the history of
Georgetown say that the streets have not
been as filthy as now since the war. For
the past few days the street cleaning de-
partment has had men at work cleaning a
few of the side thoroughfares, but as a
general thing where the work has been
done it was less needed than on NJ and
Thirty-second Streets. The merchants and
business men have become thorough!

With regard to the industrial stocks in
general. which have been more active of
late as has been noticed in this column,
ii is stated by good authorities that the
banks and other lenders of money have
refused consistently TO lend on them except
with the very amplest of margins. While
this has prevented speculation in the
stocks up TO this time 10 a certain extent,
and has undoubtedly prevented their ad-
vancing as rapidly as the remainder of the
market. it must be remembered also that
this same fact is an element of strength
for them. They are not likely TO be hurt
in any ordinary recession.
