Public School Closed.

Last Monday morning the Inter
mediate and Primary departments of
public school closed their doors
and sent the children home on ac-
count of the Scarlet fever epidemic.
At noon the Grammer department
closed its doors also for the same rea-
son.. The school will be closed this
week, at least, and as much longer as
it is necessary.
The epidemic is very mild and
hardly any of the patients are confin-
ed to their beds-most of them being
up and around the house all of the
time they are passing through the
fever. But for the great fear enter
tanned by some of the parents, whose
children have not been affected, it
would have been just as well, prehaps,
to have gone ahead with the school,
for the children are running around
on the streets and many of them eth
er have the disease, or are recovering
from it, and there is not much chance
to stamp it out unless every infected
house and its inmates are quarantin-
ed i'll the most rigid manner.

Saratoga town property is a very
good investment just now. There has
been a steady increase in the value OF
town lots the past year and the build.
ing boom, which shows no signs of let.
ting up, serves to increase the demand
for dwelling house sites. The fine
weather has also lent its aid toward
forwarding matters and the result is.
that those who purchased lots last
spring could now dispose of them fol
at least a third more than they paid
for them, and, where houses have been
built on the lots, the entire property
has about doubled in value.
The lumber yards have more or.
ders for building material than they
can handle and the scramble for lum.
Der continues. There is no place that
we know of that presents a better
opening, either for permanent invest.
ment, or for Il short speculation, than
the real estate of this town.

Wellman, the entertaining cores
pendent of the Chicago Times-Her-
aid, says:
$50 far as electoral votes are con
cerned, the east is still the enemies
country" to Mr.. Bryan. MI. Croker
has lost hope of winning New York.
In fact, he knows it cannot be done,
and though he has tried to keep the
truth from Mr. Bryan with such euph-
emisms as ''the unknown silent vote
and the surprises which are coming"
MIR. Croker at last realizes he is beat
en-, and he has lost his chance to the
Warwick who made a president of
Bryan, and won $4,000 in the bet
ting ring.
81 had a talk with Mr.. Croker while
he was waiting for Mr.. Bryan to
change his shirt. Mr.. Croker and l
are old friends. Mr.. Croker did not,
OF course, in words admit that New
York was lost to Bryan, but after that
conversation l should say a bet of
100000 to $500 on this proposition
would be a safe and easy way to make
a bit of pocket money.
"Mr. Croker has died game. He is
the last politician in New York to
give up hope. He has held out when
all his lieutenants were throwing up
the sponge"

A Child's Plea to Kipling.
Alfred Heath.

The plea of a child for more ami
NAL stories has induced Rudyard
Kipling to add to his series of funny
"'Just So" tales which have appeared
in The Ladies Home Journal. After
the famous author had published the
last of that series there wasFa flood of
letters came to the journal asking for
more. One among these was address,
ed to Mr.. Kipling personally, and was
forwarded to him in England. Itprov-
ed to be a letter from a child who
pleaded with the author; to .:give us
some more stories about animals; we
enjoyed your others very much. There
is not much written hat we little
folks can enjoy, so please, dear Mr..
Kipling, write something about my
pussy" The -earnestness and sinceri-
ty of the child appealed very strongly
to Mr.. Kipling, who is exceedingly
fond of little folks, and he writes to
the Journal saying that he is going to
grant that child's request even if he
has to disappoint all his other friends.

CHICAGO TRAFFIC BLOCKED.

Heavy Snow Storm Prevails THROUGHOUT
the Corn Belt.
CHICAGO, March Local traffic is
blocked in all parts Of the city by the
snow storm, and trains are DELAYED. The

snow fall is the greatest since the win.
ter OF 1898, averaging nearly : inches in
the Middle Western states. 1t was
stated that the conditions give no prom.
Use of immediate abatement Of the
storm.
The greatest O. fall, according to
the weather map. is in Illinois, Mis-
souri,, Kansas, Southern Michigan.
Northern Indiana, Southeastern Iowa,
and Southeastern Wisconsin. Railroads
running through these states reported
trains from half an hour to five hours
late. The Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy Kansas City train was reported
five hours late at Galesburg, aud max.
ing progress only with the aid Of SNOW
plows. All the roads sent out their
plows during the night.
In Chicago traffic was carried Oh with
the greatest dificulty-the streets being
blocked by great drifts of SNOW. A
mile OF cable cars were tied up on the
North Side line for hours and in other
portions OF the city the snow blockade
was so effective that many people were
compelled to wade through the snow to
their places Of business.
Reports received from various cities
in Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana
indicate that the storm is general down
the Mississippi valley, although the
the snow line does not extend very far
south OF St. Louis. Heavy sleet storms
are reported south Of st. Louis and Cen.

IN a request recently received from Gen.
