That Is the Way We Sometimes Teach

From the Atlantic Monthly.

the Boston schools. the last person in the
world who would ever voluntarily be found
marching in professions or engaging in
hand-to-hand encounters with mobs Yet
on Dewey day she spent hours in helping
to marsha! host of school children through
crowded streets. picking them from under
the feet of tramping hordes. and protecting
them from utter destruction when thew

Would you have had the poor little chaps
all left at home? That's the way we teach
'em patriotism-rub it in, you see."
Every one of those children" said Sc
verely, was legally entitled to two pa
rents. There must be some use for parents
in the everlasting economy of things
though many of them don't seem to stIs-

enriched natural history courses demand
that the pupil shall be sent into the wild

CURIOsITIEs OF SUICIDE.
Some True Stories Concerning Its
Epidemic Quality.
From the London Teleeraph


Epidemic Quality.
From the London Telegraph.
AT the conclusion Of q recent Inquest on
John Brooks, an engineer of Upton Park
Manor. who flung himself off the Royal
Sovereign while the vessel was nearing
Southend' on her return journey from Mar
gate, Mr.. Wood. the deputy coroner. made
some remarks calculated to surprise the un-
Initiated, but only the uninitiated. He said
that apparently the case was one of those
which made up the terrible epidemic of sui
eide in and near London recently. This is
what students of psychology call suicide
Through imitation or. as Mr.. Wood cor
rectly termed 1t, "epidemical suicide" As
a rule, though, civil communities are less
prone to 1t than military ones. 1t has hap
pened several times before now that a SOL
dier having hanged himself in a barrack
room, or having put a bullet through his
brain In sentry box. the drama was re-
peated for many days under similar condi-
tions without the authorities being able to
put stop to the recurrence otherwise than
by changing the regiments quarters. The
most notable case on record occurred in
lSO5. In the camp at Boulogne. when Ma
poleon was preparing, or pretending to pre-
pare a descent upon England. The regi-
ment was sent inland, and 1t was on that
occasion the emperor enunciated the IA
nous axiom in general order, THE SOL
dler who kills himself is practically de-
serter. More than a quarter Of a century
iater dozen veterans hanged themselves
In as many days from nail in one of the
corrldors OF the Hotel des Invalides in
Paris. The nail was removed and the epi-

MUSICAL MENTION.

Olive Fremstadt. young American who
has been singing for several years at the
Cologne Opera House and who has sung at
Bayreuth. will be a member Of the Grau
and Savage Company next season. She
studied with Nine. Lii Lehman.
Santley the baritone, sings this season at

Frank L. Perley, Alice Nielsens manager
who is now in England. Mr.. Perley was
one of a coaching party in the famous lake
region. While crossing Hornister pass,
which is said to be the most dangerous
mountain pass in England. the fore wheel
broke and the coach overturned. The road
was only eight feet wide; with cliff on one
side and precipice on the other. Mr.. Per-
ley's early experience in the circus business
seems to have stood him In good stead, for
he leaped from the top of the coach as 1t
turned over, and caught the horses by their
heads, just they started to stampede.
After a struggle, the frightened steeds were
subdued. and the party, several members of
which were badly cut and bruised. tramped
where their wounds were dressed and
where, by unanimous consent. the coaching
tour came to an end.

Available Farm Lands i'm the South.
From the Southern Farm Magazine

Young farmers starting out are invited to
investigate the undeveloped farm lands of
the south. There are at present thousands
OF acres Of as fertile land as was ever de-
voted to agriculture upon which the virgin
timber still stands. and this land may be
purchased at very low price, in many
cases the cost scarcely equaling the re-
turns which may be realized from the tim
Der upon the land. For young men with
push. perseverance and industry there are
splendid homes to be carved out of the un-
TILED lands of the south. Generally the land
may be purchased easy terms, and the
payments SO arranged through a series of
years that each year they will not be more
burdensome than the payment of rent in
other places: These southern lands are
bound in few years to be taken up and
developed by active farming people. and as
adjoining farms are improved and towns
and cities of wealth and culture spring up
around them. as is now rapidly being done
IN many sections Of the south, land values
Will increase. so that in a few years farm
costing at the present time from s. to $40
an an acre Will be worth possibly from s25 to
Soo. and that while each year it has been
paying expenses and a profit on the invest
ment.
