bill. Therefore, a consultation of
local carpenters was called and q
school building, such as desired, was
the result.
These buildings have been con-
structed in such a manner that when
no longer required at one site they
can quickly be taken apart aud, if
need be, moved to another They are
twenty-four by thirty-six feet, inside
measurement. The floors are con-
structed in eight sections, the sides in
six sections, the ends in four sections
and the roof in sixteen sections. Each
section is strongly put together on
frames, and these are bolted in such n
manner as to make a perfectly tight
and secure room. The JOINTS between
the sections are covered both inside
and out by movable pieces, which are
held in place by screws. The heating
and ventilating are furnished by an
indirect furnace with double casing.
The fresh air is taken directly from
the outside, and the supply cannot, in
any manner, be cut off or reduced be"

at one end of the platform a little
house of logs, which is arranged
solely for the convenience of the
people who want water. A big tank,
holding two or three barrels of water,
is ARA yed with a charcoal furnace to
keep its contents at the boiling point.
In another corner of the house is q
tank Of cold water. Each of these is

An Odd Tree From NIadagascar.

From Vick's Magazine we get this
picture Of the travellers tree, an odd
looking growth indigenous in NADIA
gascar. Botanically it is known as
the Ravenala Madagarcarenis, but its
popular name has been given it from
the belief that water from rain and dew
collects in it's leaf stems in sufficient
quantity to quench travellers thirst.
The water does collect as stated, but
as the plant grows beside water
courses it can hardly be Of special
benefit to the traveller, who could
slack his thirst much easier at the
adjacent stream.

Every one knows that it is bad to
sleep on your back, but it is even
worse if the bed is such that your
stomach is as high as your head and
your feet are lower than both, as must
be the case on too heavily wadded
mattresses. On the other hand, if
the spring is too yielding you will find
that the heavy parts of the body make
you lie in a kind Of hollow whether
you sleep on your back or on your

just now upon having successfully
solved difficult problem, and upon
the carrying out Of unique and inter

has been found necessary that when

it, might seem n matter of extreme
difficulty. AS it is, however, the
problem has been solved.
st. LouisIhas found much difficulty
in providing room for all its school
children. Rented rooms were expert
mented with in many parts of the
city with more or less success, but the
general result would hardly be called

the population was scattered the plan
seemed scarcely applicable. After

side the spine is curved most uncom-
fortably and unhealthful.
What then is to be done about it?
The spring of the bed must either be
made in several pieces, OF be made up
of spiral springs, so that all parts are
independent of one another, and the
springs gt the center are stronger than
those at the head and foot because
they have more weight to support. In
this way it becomes possible for the
tired man or woman to obtain the
greatest possible amount of benefit
from the hours devoted to sleep. If
they will use a moderately hard mat.
tress, Of cotton or hair, never of feath-
ers, aud not too high a pillow, seeing
that when they are in bed the body is
not all curled up in knot by the poor
springs and that the feet and back are
in almost a straight line, the repose
gained while lying either on the right
or left side will prove refreshing and
healthful.

PASSED WORTHLESS CHECK


The police arrested man named Good

a worthless check on Mary E. Shaw,
who keeps a restaurant on Commercial
street. The man went to Mrs. Shaw S
restaurant some days ago and engaged
board. After q few days he rendered her
a check made payable to William e.
Davis drawn for S1515 on the Interna-
tional Trust company of Boston by
George H. Brown. Mrs Shaw trusted
the man for his board on the strength of
the check, advancing him S. on it and
sent it into the bank for collection. She
heard Saturday that the check was worth
less and that the George H. Brown who
had signed it was under arrest in Bos-
ton charged with passing worthless
checks. Officers Frank and Greeley hunt
ed up the man who had given the check
to Hrs. Shaw and found him at the Eagle
house with another worthless check in
his pocket for ST. 5, which he was about
to offer there in payment of his board.

Her BAH Players are Once Mere the
Champions

New York, June 30 Harvard has
won another baseball mpionship
from Yale, defeating the New Haven
.collegiates at the Polo grounds this after
noon by a score of to 2.
There was too strong an attraction at
Poughkepesie to expect a large crowd
to turn out for the game today Not
more than 1900 persons were on hand.
1t was a very quiet assemblage for col
lego crowd, and if 1t had not been for a
small band of Harvard and Yale rooters
on opposite sides of the big stand, an
outsider would never have known that
he was at an important college contest.
There was the usual quantity of fem
mime beauty and finery in the grand
stand. Without these fair followers d
college game would not be anything out
of the ordinary.
The story of the game itself is easily
summed up In the first place it was
an exceptionally clean played game, that
is for contest between two college
teams Harvard outplayed Yale from
the start, but if there had not been a
Loughlin and Stlllman on the Grim
son team the chances are that Yale
would now be rejoicing instead Of Har-
ward. Loughlin deserves the most credit
because he made two hits and batted in
the three runs necessary to win. Still.
man pitched splendid1y throughout. He
had good control and used excellent
Judgment. Robertson, Yale's pitcher,
was shaky from the start and Garvin,
who relieved him, in the second, was a
bit unsteady Tt was he who filled the
bases in the sixth inning and then al
lowed Loughlin to rap out the hit that
sent in two runs. The score:

who is also manager OF the Kezar Falls
The Fort boys played good game ex-

made a few errors and assisted by some
very poor decisions given by the UNI
pire, which enabled the Kezar Falls to
