Visited School.

Last week President Baker and
Professor De Long Of the State Uni
versity at Boulder, were in Canon.
Professor De Long thoroughly in
spected all the departments of the
high schocl and reported that he
found the work strictly up to date
and that it formed a solid basis for
higher instruction. He said any
pupil who presents diploma of the
Canon high school at the university
will be admitted without an examina-
ton. President Baker gave the
pupils . short talk. He recommended
that the best way to success is by
going straight ahead and encounter
ing difficulties instead of going around
them or giving up. He gave several
instances to show that one difficulty
overcome will make one stronger to
overcome others. When he had fin
ished the pupils applauded and gave
the school yell.

OXFORD'S WITTY BISHOP.
Instances Of the Utility of a Ready
Command of Ones
Ideas.

Two stories are attributed in Rail-
way Magazine to the witty bishop of
Oxford. He was once talking to some
boys in school, and said to them:
"Now, my boys, dare say you think
it's very fine thing to be bishop.
But assure you I'm very busy man.
I have to go about all over my do
cese, and I haven't time to study like
you have. In fact, nearly all my study
has been confined to only one book.
It begins with: a b. a. Do you know
what it isl :sThe Bible, sir the BIZ
ble," shouted the boys all together.
"No," replied the Bishop, with a merry
twinkle in his eye. ITS called Brad
!! shawl"
The other story is still better. On
one occasion, when he alighted. from
the. train at Wheatley, the station for
Cu6desden palace, an officious porter
dashed up to him and asked: '.Any
articles in the van, my lord p "Arti-
cles,' said the bishop, grimly. Eyes,
80 articles" OF hurried the porter.
and worried the guard almost out of
his senses by the. way he searched
the van and detained the train. Pres
emily he came back to the bishop with
crestfallen expression of counten-
ance. "There are only seven, my lord ;"
Only seven? All, you're dissenter,
