TURTLES AT THE AQUARIUM.

IN the Aquarium down Battery Park there

species. One of the most Interesting is Eman-
uei' big green turtle. which was named by Mr.
spencer, the superintendent. after Emanuel La
SUMO skipper of a we'll known Pacific
schooher. The turtle was caught off the west
coast OF Borneo. and ii took several long voyages
with the skipper becoming unusually tame, going
ABOUT the deck Of the schooner when and where it
pleased. few years ago Emanuel was pre-
sented to the Aquarium in this city, and at that
time there warm water for the tanks in
winter so the turtle was kept up in the iabora-
tory. where he could keep himself by the
steam radiator
Emanuel became very friendly with Mr.. Spencer,
and would stretch up his neck to have his throat

WOMEN TEA CHEERS CRITICISED
PROFESSOR CHARLES DE GARMOS

The recent statement by Professor Charles De
Garmo. OF Cornell. that women teachers are
less competent than men has raised much discus
Sion among educators In a speech before the As
sociated Academic Principals of this State at
Syracuse last week. he said that the increased en-
schools and academies is responsible for a lower
standard OF education than is desirable. and that
well qualified teachers are being driven out
or the profession by improperly prepared women.
VINO are willing to work for mere plttance. upon

high standard. more male teachers he asserted
must be required in the schools. and more rigid
training for women must be demanded.

The Telephone Matter.

On Friday night a meeting OF the
telephone holders of the city was held
in the city court room to take action
in regard to the proposed increase in
rates. After some discussion and pro-
positions to and from the mutual CON-
pany resolution was adopted to or
ganize the Staunton Mutual Telephone
Protective Association, and commit
tee was appointed to prepare consti.
tuition.
On Monday Mr.. Watts made pro-
position to the Association to the eff
feet that all phone holders who paid in
advance for their phones there should
be no increase in rates, but those who
did not pay in advance an increase to
rates published in their circular would
be adhered to.
This only applies to phones in Staun-
ton and Augusta. All will have to be
charged extra for message outside of
the county except those who accept
the proposition sent forth in their cir
cular letter. A guarantee was also
made that there should be no further
increase for the term of five years.
On the recommendation of the COM
mittee the proposition made by Mr..
Watts was accepted.
A committee consisting of the direc
tors of the Association was appointed
to hear all grievances of the phone
holders.

Typhoid fever in a most violent
form has been raging near Stuart's
Draft for some two weeks. One entire
family has been stricken with the dis
ease. A neighbor, in passing the house
of s. T. Coffey, whose family Hives In a
remote part of the Valley, and seeing
no sign of life about the place, decided
to go in and investigate. He found
that the mother and her two daughters
had been taken ill with the fever at
the same time, leaving only one son to
care for them, the father having been
sent to an insane asylum some time
since. The mother died after an illness
of a few days and the son buried her
