cucumber has vagaries of it's own' and some
times plays strange pranks with producer and

the United States. There was talk Of
his doing so three years ago, and in
1899 it was given out ut Brussels that
the monarch was going to take a
three-months' yachting cruise, during
which he would touch on this side OF
the Atlantic.
Earlier in life King Leopold was
fond Of mysterious disappearance.
and paid frequent trips incognito to
neighboring capitals. He Is now sixty
five years of age, but as his zest for
automobiling shows, full Of activity,
and possessing a decided faculty for
combining business with pleasure.
The Congo Independent State, which
is his creation, is likely, in spite Of
early forebodings, to bring him in a
substantial reward for his prescience.
In his will he has bequeathed all his
sovereign rights in the State to Bel
GUM, and not so long ago he made
over to the public all his real estate
in Belgium.
King Leopold is busy speculator,
and Is said to be interested In several
American mining ventures, besides
his schemes for developing Ostend
and other European pleasure resorts.
At the opening of che Brussels ship
canal last year he looked forward to
the establishment Of line Of steam
crs plying between Brussels as sea-
port and New York City, and he Is
doubtless keenly alive to the advan-
tages of developing still further the
great resources of Antwerp and its
trade with this port.

SCHOOLS OF THE COUNTRY.
More Than 100000 Pupils Enrolled In
Ali Institutions.

Washington. D. C-About twenty
one per cent. Of the total population
of the United States attend public
schools, and two per cent. Of the rest
attend private schools, according to
the annual report of the Commissioner
of Education.
The grand total in all schools. ele-
mentary, secondary, and higher, pub
lie and private, for the year ended
July l, 1900, was 17,020,71O pupils. an
increase of 2S2,34S over the previous
year. Of this number the enrolment
in public institutions supported by
general and local taxes was 15,443, ,462.
Special institutions, such as evening
schools, Indian schools, schools con-
nected with asylums, reform schools,
and other institutions more or less
educational in their character, increase
the total number by half q million
pupils.
The statistics, as interpreted by the
Commissioner. show a uniform con-
sensus Of public opinion throughout
the Nation in favor Of providing Sec
ondary education at public cost. Pub
lie high schools have increased from
1926 in 1890 to COOS in 1900.
