Position.
If Col. I. G. Gibbons suggestion lis
favorably received by the committee
upon course of study for the pupils
of the public schools, French will here
after be included in the high school
curriculum.
Col Gibbons brought the matter be-
fore the Board of Education Tuesday
night and it was referred TO the COM
mttee for recommendation. Col.
Gibbons Is enthusiastically in favor
of the adoption of the new study.
He said, with the exception of the
English, no language is so much need
ed as the French 1t is used more
than any other tongue and as time
progresses this fact will become more
evident. In the Philippines, Cuba
and Porto Rico, French is used in pub
lie affairs. and in foreign countries a
knowledge of the French language is
of great benefit to the traveller"
In this connection, Col. Gibbons al
so suggested that shorthand be taught
in the night school. This matter was
likewise referred to the committee up
on course of study.
CONTRACTS AWARDED.
| Mr.. Harpham, chairman of the new
buildings committee recommended that
| the contract for the erection of the

g. Runyeon for S17,71O. This includes
everything but the heating apparatus
and special plumbing. The recommen-
dation was adopted and work upon the
new structure will begin at once The
accepted bid is much lower than the
one received when the work was held
ND by the courts. The contract for
furnishing and erecting the Bartlett
system of plumbing was awarded to
Englehart & Eckart for $3.50. The
contract for the heating apparatus will
be awarded later.

What Prof. Egbert Says.
The wind storm which visited Ak
ron Tuesday night and early Wednes-
day morning was Il part Of the most
terrific gale that ever passed over the
country.
Yesterdays dispatches to the Demo-
crat gave Akron people an intimation
of what was to be expected. A stiff
breeze began to blow ut 10 o'clock and
the clouds gave every promise of Il
severe storm The gale increased in
velocity until it reached its height at
between and O'clock Wednesday
morning. At that time it was going
at a terrific rate, varously estimated
from 40 TO ~ miles per hour
Nearly every dwelling in the city tot
tered upon its foundation and the
wonder is that more damage was not
done. As it WIS, Akron escaped luck
lily. only a fcw incidents of trees being
uprooted or limbs broken having been
reported.
The country districts suffered more
seriously, and in some localities the
storm was not without its disastrous
effects. Orchards were stripped of
their fruit and the trees were blown
down. Some damage was also done &c
the corn crop which is now nearing
maturity.
Prof II. V. Egbert of Buchtel col

station ut the college contains no in
strumcnt for the measurement of We

alosp CENSORSHIP IN AUSTRIA

Newspapers in Francis Joseph's Domain
 Must Not Speak Too Freely.
 The editor of a small provincial pa- per in Austria was in great difficulty to find fit subject for his leading article, having been too intent upon other business or upon pleasure to provide one. The last moment had come and the editor was in despair. He tortured his brain in vain, when he suddenly was inspired by happy thought and dashed off the lines: After carefully perusing the leading article written for the present number by one of the ablest of our contributors, we have ar rived at the conclusion that it may be misinterpreted by the authorities and regarded as an attack upon the gov ernment. We ourselves consider 1t 70 be perfectly innocent, but. as we are unwilling, for our readers sake, as well as for our own, to have our news paper confiscated, we have very un- willingly, though, as we think, pru- dently. resolved to withdraw the artl- cfe. This must serve as the apology to our readers for the blank space in our present issue.'' The journal was pub .ished in the evening, and the sly ed stor, after performing this little piece of stratagem, left the office in high humor. AS soon as he arrived in the office next morning clerk came up to him. with a doleful expression, and said, Herr Redaktor, the paper Is eonfiseated by the po1ice!" For what reason?" asked the astonished editor "For malicious ridicule of the institu- lions of the Austrian empire by the omission of the leading articles' re- nlied the man.-New York Press

GENIUS Is ECCENTRIC.
As Is Proved by some Recent po,n..
 of Actors.

Of Actors.
 The ancient wearers of the soc, ars 0uskin had many draw backs to con. tend against. The strollers who sol. emnly performed their parts on inc insecure boards of a cart must hava ieit at times that they were leaving altogether too much to the inagina. tIon or the open mouthed auditors. Iet we have no reason to believe thai they ever cut short a tragedy because or these unpleasant restrictions. nor that they rudely drove away in tbA midst or 8 mutilated comedy. It re- mains for the later-day actor. with HIS wealth of realistic surroundings. 70 nare up over trifies and bare his qulYef1ng nerves before presumably sympathetic audience. Miss Julia Arthur stops her performance and de- hounces the murmur of a ehattering oox party. Actor Richard Mansfield throws up his hands in disgust and rings down the curtain because of a sputtering steam pipe. Perhaps he Ielt at the moment very much as the oiotlme actor did when greatly an- noyed by the crying of an infant child. sreaking off abruptly, he advanced to the footlights and gravely observed:
 Unless the play stops. the child can not go on." MT. Mansfield. however said nothing-at least, nothing audi Die to the audience. He tacitly con, fessed his unwillingness to match the ordinary vocal pipes against the va pory sort, and rang down the curtain. Genius has always borne a reputation Tor eeeentrieity, but only in later years has it burst through the en- vironments of time, and place, and professional obligation, and domi- nated it's chosen field. The musical genius warbles or thrums at will; the actor treads the boards at will. Per- haps this independence of action will mark the other professions ia time. Genius has become, in a measure, a petty autoerat, and as long as there are seryile necks for it to pirouette upon, 1t may be expected to show still further proofs of unpleasant eccen- uicity.
