Miss DanisIsS Successful Plan Of LurinE
Truants to her School.

TOPEKA. Kan. July 2s.-While the practice
of giving kisses to scholars ~ rewards OF merit
for obedience to school rules may not become
popular feature Of the American public school
system, the plan has worked like charm In the
case OF pretty Miss Mile Daniels district
school teacher In Nemaha county. Kansas.
This plan Is original with Miss Daniels and was
tried only after all other expedients for the
Turing OF ruants to the school room had failed.
That the plan has been success Is attested by
the fact that the enrolment Of the school has
increased over so per cent In the time Miss
Daniels has taught there.
Miss Daniels, who Is described as unusually
pretty, came to Kansas two years aRo fresh
from the high schools Of Illinois She found
her school in Nemaha county in a very bad
condition. The boys were hopelessly ad-
dicted to the hockey" habit and when in school
were unruly All devices known to the teacher 3
art were tried to secure good behavior and
attendance but without avail. Finally the
teacher announced her scheme and II was
sanctioned by the school board The oscula-
tory event is pulled of every Friday. Tho
pupil who has been well behaved and attended
every session Of the week is allowed to kiss
the teacher while the pupil who has been alb
sent or tardy but once Is kissed by the teacher,
The school board Is satisfied with the work.

shooting a moose. He lived upon the meat
until he reached relief station.
The story Of Weywichs death 10 recorded In O

diary. as his notepaper ran out. Weywich
and Dominy were members OF the Sunny
South" party which left for the Klondike in
1898. They took the Edmonton trail, and
before winter set in all save Weywich and
Dominy turned back to civilization. Dominy
and Weywich struggled on and succeeded in
reaching Mcpherson Lake. where they built a
cabin and prepared 10 spend the winter. The
mems provisions were short. but they thought
they would kill enough game to keep them
going. No game appeared though. and by
January they were on short rations. The rest
Is best told in entries in the diary.
Jan 8-Too weak to go huntins cooked q

At this time the men were living on two meals

The unfortunate man died on Jan. Is. They
had had nothing to eat for few days previous
Practically they had had nothing for weeks.
Dominy and Weywich sang hymns and familiar
tunes all the morning. The dying man
gradually relapsed into Inconsistencies and
