SCHOOL BUILDINGS NEEDED.
The Board Will Discuss Finances at
Meeting Next Month.

Members Of the School Board will dis
cuss the needed improvements to school
houses at the meeting to be held the third
Friday of next month. At that time they
will secure the auditors figures on the
amount the board will receive from taxes
and can formulate plans to make what
improvements are necessary. The board
has $60,000 in the maintenance of buildings
fund, and out of this it will have to install
steam-heating plants In several buildings.
One Of the members Of the board says that
four new schools are badly needed, but
the board Will only be able to erect one
east of Woodruff Place. The board says
the revenues, under the law, do not equal
the additional expenditures necessitated
each year by the natural increase in popu-
lation, and at the next meeting of the
Legislature amendments to the school law
will be submitted in order to derive addi-
tional revenues.

ed up tnelr chirp again with vigor

This curious Matching aroused the
greatest interest and curiosity about
the freighthouse. a similar case hav-
ing never been known. The eggs
were shipped from Ponca, in Dixon
county, Neb., to Omaha a few days
ago. That the warm weather alone
could have caused the incubation
seems improbable, and the most like
ly theory Is that the eggs were re-
moved from under a hen when she
had been setting on them for two
weeks or more and were shipped di-
rectly here. The chickens would then
have already a good start and the
1O1-degree weather, which is just
the heat required for incubation, did
the rest.
One freight man, however, is firm
in a belief that Old Sol did it all
and says he will shortly start crate
of unset eggs on a ten days trip to
the south and back to see what re-
suits may be accomplished along TINS

CARDINALS AT ROME.
Have Singular Privileges and Rules
for Their Conduct.
Always Dress in Red and Etiquette
Does Not Allow Them TO Walk
The Sacred College and How
IL Is Constituted,

While in Rome etiquette does not
allow d cardinal to walk. He must
have a carriage and pair. When he
goes out beyond the city walls an at
tendant follows him. Going to pub
lie ceremony at the Vatican ne is en-
titled to a gala train of three car
riages, and if prince to four.
In the pope's chapel The cardinals
kneel at the benches on which they
sit. They wear at ceremonial func-
tions a cassOck wi-h a train of cloth
in winter and Of oire in summer.
Collars, shoes and stockings are red.
The girdle is of red moire with gold
tassels, the rochet of lace and the mo-
zetta the same as the cass0ck. In
Rome the rochet is covered with a red
mantelletta; outside the city it is un-
covered. The hat is red felt with gold
tassels.
The cardinals di curia, or those re-
siding in Rome, are entitled to a year
ly income, or piatto cardinalizio Of
80, 900 Ere-about Sc, ,4OO-which is paid
out of the ePter's pence. The cardinal
dwelling ordinarily has these special
apartments: At the entrance is an
antechamber for the domestics.
Above a credence are the arms of the
cardinal under a canopy. On the wall
are suspended his two kneeling cush-
ions, one of red and the other of violet
silk, and his two umbrellas of the
same colors. These last are for COW
ering him when he is making a solemn
entry into church or following the
viaticum bareheaded. The second
room is for the cardinals secretary.
The third is called the antechamber Of
the biretta, because the red biretta
is placed there on a console before .

such an order, he must be believed on

whipping his horse, and at every jump
there was pistol shot from the pur-
suers. The chase occurred about mid
night, and the few men on the streets
were commanded by the sheriff to
Join in the race.
The clatter of the running horses,
the shouts of the men and the firing
of pistols awoke the people in the
houses along the way. When the sup
posed thief reached a livery barn he
turned the horse in, jumped from the
buggy and hid in pile of straw. The
sheriff and a crowd of excited follow
ers poured into the barn and began to
search for the supposed thief. Mean
while the owner of the barn appeared
and identified the supposed stolen
outfit as his own, which he had hired
to Forest Edwards, the young profess
isor of a Birmingham, Ala, college.
Edwards had driven the horse to
the country to call on young wom-
an. From his hiding place in the
straw the professor overheard
the explanation and ventured
into view. He was so fright
ened he could hardly speak. He
thought robbers were chasing him
through the streets. Two bullets
struck the buggy, and the professor
had a close call for his life. The Off
GERS claim they shot into the air, but
the bullets in the buggy tell a differ
ent story.

Germans ns Pacemakers,

Germany is setting the pace in
everything now. German trans
oceanic steamers, German railway
trains and German street tramways
are called upon to beat the worlds
record. Their steamers have done
their duty OF late, and their tram
ways skim through the municipal
thoroughfares at quite a dangerous
speed. Now the turn of the trains
has come. Formerly, not so many
years ago, very few German trains
travelled over 40 miles an hour. In
recent years the fastest train in the
German empire was, and still is, a
corridor train running between Ber.
lin and Hamburg. which does the dis.
-tance of 1850 kilometers in 3 hours
and 2s minutes. This means a We.
aocity Of SIS kiiOmeters per hour
which is equivalent TO little over
iklL miles.

EXTRAORDINARY PLANT,
When Givea to Ii in Small and
Tasty MOFseIs.

We all know that certain plants alb
sorb and live on insects. butit has only
recently been discovered that there
are some curious species of plants
that actually deyour animal food when
given 10 them in small morsels.
The leaves of these queer plants ap-
pear in doublets. like oyster valves.
This double leaf is closed up from its
base 70 within about three-quarters
of its entire length. In the front part
it is detached, the two pointed tops
forming, as it were, a pair of lips, or
a mouth, which the plant can open at
will.
Inside this mouth is kind of pas
sage or throat which extends toward
