Dislike the Illustration.

Superintendent Bright takes excep-
ton to a brightly colored chart in use
in country schools which represents
the farmer as painfully moving grass
with a scythe at $1S a month, while
opposite an elegantly dressed clerk
cozily sells bolt of Bingham to a
beautiful young lady at $40 month,
and another city clerk below keeps
books on a little mahogany desk at
$500 month.
Mr.. Bright objects that the chart
conveys false idea. for the farmer,
who really does his moving by ma
chinery, gets board and lodging with
his SIS, while the dapper clerk has to
pay $1,000 month out Of his $40 for
board, lodging and ear fare. Also the
business houses which are looking for
5000 month carefully keep their
wants out Of the small ''ad-" columns
Of the newspapers. go.
The only defense Of the chart is
that it is calculated to make pupils
think" This is true 1t will make
them think that the authorities which
display the chart have something the
matter with their intellectuals.
1t is rather odd that SO much energy
is devoted to, making pupils think
when very likely small part of the
same energy directed to the desirable
end of making the educators think
would have much better result.-Chi-

HIS DISTINGUISHED VISITOR.
A Pompous Reception That Amused
President Grevy.


A Pompous Reception That Amused
President Grevy.
M. Severiaro de Heredia, the minis
ter Of public "a orks in the Rouyier cabi-
net during thu presidency Of Nj. Grevy,
belonged TO tho famous naturalized Gu
ban family. ofwhich another member,
the Comte de Heredia, is one OF the I'm
mortal 40 Of the French academy. Most
Of the family have dark spins, suspi-
ciously mulatto, and other negro char
acteristics. This has. however, in no.
wise interfered with their standing in
Paris, where several of, the family have
long been prominent. The former min
lister had also been Spresident Of the
municipal council Of Paris and depu-
ty from a Paris ACCOMPLISHMENT.
His dark skin led to curious mis-
take at the Eiysee> the day after he had
been appointed a member Of the Rou-
vfer cabinet. According to immemorfal
custom the new ministers called singly
on President Grexy to pay their re-
spects. On the same day, rs it hap
pened, an official visit way expNeted
from the president, of the republic Of
Haiti. who was to present his letters to
the president. When NJ. de Heredia
arrived In the court Of the palace, the
minor officials stationed there, who
were not familiar with the new minis
ters features, judged from his COM
plexion that he was the Haitian digni-
tary. The courtyard became very ami
mated with guards hurrying to and fro
to their places. while one of the officers
of the presidents military household
went to inform M. Grevy Of the dis
tinguished visitors arrival.
NJ. de Hered!a received all this with
dignified composure, for, never having
been a minister before this, he thought
this ceremonial was probably the usual
one. Finally. with the beating Of
drums. he was ushered into the recep-
ton room. where the chief executive
stood ready to receive him. what"
cried he. ''it's only you. Heredia"
"Why. yes, NJ. lie President" replied
the puzzled minister. Grevy began to
laugh. WELL" he cried. you have
been minister only "a hours and have
succeeded in turning my house upside
down. What will you do later onT'-

CHASED THE SUPER.
The Exciting Race Between Kean
and the Stage Hand.

The Exciting Race Between Kean
and the Stage Hand.
Some strange tales have been told by
old timers in the stage business about
the Keans. both the elder and the last
to be seen on the American stage.
Some have, said that hard study made
them little wrong at times, and some
of the things they did certainly looked
queer.
1t is told by an old New Orleans
horseman. who is here from the Cries.
cent City. that when Kean the youn-
ger was playing there he nearly scared
q super to death and came near s'pink-
ing" him.
1t was in Richard III" In the scene
where he sees the ghosts. The stage
manager was bit the verse for drink
and determined to have some fun. He
did not like kean. as he was hard
man behind the scenes. Among the
supers was a raw Irish laG who had
never seen a stage before. The man
ager told this fellow that if he would
run across the stage when he give him
the tip he would stand to earn So. The
poor fellow was. broke. and a two spot
looked to him like national bank.
He agreed. and the stage manager gave
him gaudy oiIcIoth banner bearing
these words. Smoke General Jackson
Cigars" ... -
. 1t was nearly panic that this Irish
lad started. He ran across the stage,
and when Kean saw him he was furi-
Gus. He made. a lunge at. the unfer-
tunate super with his sword, and. as
the rag" came whizzing down to a
hurry call, he chased the poor standard
bearer off the stage. down the passage
and to the street. For two blocks he
followed him in his Richard costume
and finally the super escaped down a
dark alley.
What effect it had upon the show the
turfman does not say, but certainly it
vas only the super's agility of foot that
saved him.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

AS an illustration of the magnitude
Of the business involved in the pur-
chase of the smaller powers of war
material in Europe one has only to
look at the number Of men employed
at such great plants as the Krupp of
Germany, the Creusot in France and
those of the Armstrong; and Vickers'
Sons & Maxim of England. krupp
employs something like $4,000 men.
The two English firms employ COL
lectively about $4,000 men and the
Creusot plant about 10000. No reck-
oning is here made of the famous
Loewe. works of Berlin or of Italian,
Belgian and numerous French firms.
With the exception of Krupp the above
establishments ordinarily confine them
selves to filling foreign orders.-Har-

Survival Of the Horse.

The horse, which has long been con-
signed by pessimists to the condition
of the dodo, still survives and is worth
more than ever All the new schemes
of transportation, from the locomotive
to the trolley car and automobile, have
not appreciably affected his status.
Every new business makes more bust
, ness in all sorts of directions. There
are a constant adjustment and read
justment going on that follow natural
laws. Labor saving machinery, so
called. has greatly increased the num-
Der of workers. who toll less arduously.
Every valuable contribution to our in
dustrial life works out for the good Of
the whole in the long run. The horse
will ever remain the best servant Of
man in spite of new inventions.-Phila-

Yermak, the Coasack.

Russia has been expanding. steadily
and surely, ever since the days Of Ivan
the Terrible. when Yermak slashed and
smashed his way to victory in Siberia,
and ever since that day her expansion
has been largely by conquest Of arms.
Yermak. who practically laid the
foundation for ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, was a
Cossack chief and was born near the
banks Of the Don: He invaded Siberia
with 5000 men and after several vic
tories over the native tribes took Siber,
the capital. in 1880. He had formerly
been a robber, but was pardoned by
Gar Ivan Nv on laying his conquests
at the imperial feet. He died in 1888.
