SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.

The little dwellings which form the
homes of the roof dwellers are regular
cottages, quite separate and distinct
from the great structures on which
they are built. They are constructed
of wood or brick, and they nestle on
the great skyscrapers like Swiss cha
let's on as many mountain peaks.
AT. first thought IL might seem that
the life of the roof-dwellers must be a
lonely one, but he has his own diver
sions, and he enjoys many advantages
not to be obtained by other residents
of the city, not even by the wealthy
householders of fashionable Fifth ave-
nue.. Sunlight and fresh air-the nee
tar and anbrosia of city life--are en-
joyed by the residents of the roofs in
unstinted quantities They are not
crowded by their neighbors; they en-
Joy delightful seclusion; while at
their feet is spread the vast and ever
changing panorama of the city and its
glorious harbor.
From his aerial home the new cliff
man can look down upon the streets
| below, with their swarming crowds OF
what, from his lofty perch, look like
| scurrying ants. He can see the ele-
waited trains putting along, looking al
most like toys. Around him rise the
rival MISREPRESENTATION towers OF
Babel, pulsating with the hurrying life
within. The great metropolis stretches
away to the northward, between its
combining rivers, as far as the eye can
reach Here and there it's uniformity
is relieved by some great building
looming high above its fellows. South
ward the harbor's broad expanse, alive
with craft of every sort, invites his
eye. The roof dwellers, too, can see
the tremendous forces of Nature at
work in their magniflcence. When
summer thunderstorm sweeps the city,
they can observe the full beauty OF its
display; the black clouds yelling the
sky, the great curtain OF rain wallinS
out everything around and the binding
glare of the lightning, with, perhaps,
some huge building outlined against
It, Or, again, they can watch the fog
stealing down to veil the city and har-
Dor In gray.
The enterprising housewife among
these denizens of the roof is able to
brighten her home with many delight
full features. She may have her flow
er-gardens, and even a little patch of
vegetables reared in soil brought from
below. Trailing vines may be trained
along the cottage walls, and with
shrubs and plants disposed about the
borders of the roof II is possible to
transform the whole into a charming
hanging garden.
In the long summer evenings the ia
bles can be moved out into the yard.
and here the of-dwellers can sit and
take tea amid the GOODNESS and quiet.
Here, too, they can entertain their less
fortunate friends who are condemned
to live in stuffy flats or apartments.
Hammocks may be swung TO give add
ed comfort and pleasure TO life, and
awnings put up In summer to keep
the place cool through the midday
hours.

Prisoners on Darrel's Island Escape
TO Mainland.
Correspondence of the Associated Press.
Hamilton, Bermuda, July 2O-The
Boer prisoners of war confined on
barrels Island make almost nightly at
tempts to avoid the patrollng gun
boats Medina and Midway and gain
the mainland by swimming. The water
between DarrelPs Island and the beach
is calm all night long, the gunboats
sweep it with their searchlights
Sharks abound, and the British guard
will shoot on suspicion, yet several of
the Beers have escaped from their de-
tention camp.
On the night of July 9, H. j. Du-
toit, M. Louvens, j. p. Deroux and ].
G. DuPreese, Boer prisoners, evaded
the guards and the sharks, and reach
ed the shore half mile away by swim
ming. By daybreak they had reached
the southern shore of the island, but
were arrested.
A night or two afterward three 9TH
ers tried to escape by padding ashore
on planks. They were seen and fired
on by the guards. One was wounded
and returned to the island, while the
other two were caught.

MORoAN's QUICK TIME.
The Great Financier's Remarkable
TranscOntinental Trip.

After remarkably rapid run across
the continent. and one extremely pleas
mt. according to all who were on
board. Mr.. j. Pierpont Morgan's sps-
cial train has returned to New York.
"l'htre was not an unpleasant Incl.
dent OIL the trip" said Rev. DR.. Greer
to a Herald reporter. "We made our
schedule time throughout, arriving at
every station on the minute we expect
ed. cannot say much about the trip,
as we all agreed not to talk of it for
publication"
After leaving San Francisco rapid
run was made direct to Tacoma, Wash.
where the train arrived Oh Friday. Oct
1S. Special precautions We're taken for
Mr.. Morgan's safety. This was due
not only to the desire Of the Northern
Pacific officials that no accident should
befall the party while in their charge
but to the fact that large colony OF
the alleged anarchists exists within a
few miles of Tacoma.
While the Morgan party was in this
section of the country the police forces
both of Tacoma and Seattle were under
instructions to be especially vigilant
and the regular detectives were sup
plemented by men of private agencies
One of the interesting incidents Of the
trip was when at Butte, Mon, Mr.
Morgan and several members Of the
party, attired in miners clothes, went
to the bottom Of the Anaconda mine
1000 feet below the surface.
From Seattle the train sped along
the tracks of the Northern Pacific tc
St. Paul. Mimi, arriving there last
Thursday afternoon, the only stops
having been at Spokane, Wash, and
at Butte.
During the twenty-seven hours pre-
'vious to its arrival at st. Paul the
time made was especially good. One
Thousand miles were covered, a dis
lance that the fastest regular passen,
ger train in the Northern Pacific
service requires thirty-six hours to
cover.
After a stop Of only fifteen minutes
at ST. Paul the train sped on to Chi
cHSO. when was FeucLeu SuOrtIy dLtcl
midnight on Friday. The train was at
once switched on the Michigan Cen
trail tracks and continued on it's way
without delay.
Niagara Falls was reached on Fri
day afternoon after a remarkable run
from Detroit.
The total distance Of PIT miles was
covered in 200 minutes. At times be-
tween st. Thomas and Niagara Falls
the speed was about eighty five miles
an hour.
Mr. and Mrs. Morgan made the trip
from Niagara Falls to Buffalo on
Superintendent Rradfields observation
locomotive of the New York Central,
and that evening visited the Pan
American exposition. They went
among other places, to the Temple OF
Music to hear Victor Herbert's orches-
ira and to see the spot where Presi-
dent Mckinley was shot.

"BR!TISH BLUNOER."
Winston ChurchilIs Designation of
the south African War.

Winston Churchill delivered a re-
markabe speech at Leicester, says the
London correspondent of the New York
Tribune. in which he handled the war
office without gloves He devoted his
remarks almost entirely to the war and
denounced the governments muddllng
policy in scathing terms.
The war, lie declared. had become an
unmitigated nuisance and blunder.
and he wanted the government to inter-
vene in South Africa in order to local
lie, delimit and assign Lord Kitchen
er's functions, so that he might he re-
lieved of the multiplicity of duties he
is unable to perform efficiently.
The audience was delighted and en-
thusiastic with the speech, in which
Churchill showed much of his fathers
talent.
The first move in the direction of a
settlement of the Transvaal dynamite
question has been made. The conpa-
ny, which is Il German concern. is to
supply explosives at 30 shillings per
case, considerably under the figure rul-
ing before the war, on Il basis OF the
rate of consumption Of explosives by
the Rand mines prior to the outbreak
of hostilities. This would mean saw
ing of about $2,250, 900 year.
