the opening 2,553 children have been
received and that Of this number 1850

There were remaining in the school
December 10, 1900, 767 pupils, of which
493 were white boys, 220 girls and 81
colored boys. Not less than twenty-five
children per month are turned away,
sometimes because the quota of the
counties is already filed, but oftener
from persons desiring to send pay pu-
pits. During the past two years
$149, 426.66 have been expended on sub

BATH OF THE ORANGE.
Washing Process Through Which
the Fruit Is Put Before Going
on the Market.

Fresh from the tree, an orange is
still very much alive, with the oil
cells expanded and the mystery of
growth not yet suspended. Cut off
from the sap supply, a change takes
place. The skin draws closer to the
pulp and gives off moisture that
would cause sweating if the fruit
were packed at once. But first these
dust-stafnnedi travellers must have a
bath, says the Los Angeles
By the bushel-if only this were
the land of the good old bushel bas-
kettle newcomers are dumped into
long, narrow tank of water, at one
end of which is a big wheel with a
tire of soft bristles. The wheel re-
wolves so that the lower edge works
in connection with another set of
brushes in a smaller tank below, and
the oranges, after bobbing about in
the big tank, Fass between the wet
brushes and come out bright and
clean.
This washer is a neat machine, and
does away with the more primitive
yet picturesque method of hand
washing.
At some of the smaller packing
houses may be seen groups of wom-
en-, sometimes white, metimes
brown-skinned, each with tub of
water and brush, scrubbing busily
away at the yellow piles that never
seem to grow less till the last hour
of the day.
After their bath the oranges are
spread out in the sun to dry on long,
slanting racks. At the lower end
they roll off into boxes, to be carried
away to the warehouse for their rest.
The orange needs deal of groom
ing, it would seem, before it is ready
for market. The washing was not
enough. There must be a brushing,
too. And after the days of curing,
the oranges are fed in hopper which
drops them single file on to a belt
that runs between revolving cylin-
drical brushes. This for a smooth,
shiny look.

NERVOUS SYSTEM IS DUAL.
The Development of One Set Benefits

Body,

Prof. Scripture, Of Yale university,
has invented a new term, ''cross-educa-
tion," which he gives to the results
upon the organs of the opposite side
of the body from exercise OF limb or
organ. The simplest instance is that
a gain of 20 per cent. in strength
of the right hand from exercising it
alone secures gain of so per cent. in
the uneXercised left hand. The law
holds not only as regards strength
but also in other qualities. The fact
helps to explain why in right-handed
people, for instance, the left retains
so much strength and experiences. The
question also arises if other organs
than corresponding ones may not be

Records Are Sacred.

At Nashville last week United
States District Judge Clark denied the
motion of defendants in the First Ma
tional Bank cases for en- order to ex-
anime the books and papers held by
the United States district attorney and
the bank, and that the district attor-
ney turn over certain pass books and
other papers. t1dge Clarks says the
motion for an order to require the
bank to permit an inspection of it's
books and records by defendants has
been formally withdrawn, and proper
ly so he thinks, as he is without any
jurisdiction to make any order on the
bank. Neither the district attorney
nor the United States nor any other
person has the slightest power or au-
thority to direct the bank what it shall
or shall not do in permitting persons
not interested in the corporation to in
spect its books. The motion was made
in the interest of parties indicted in
connection with the shortage of W. w.
Lea, formerly connected with the
bank.
