required, will greatly increase the cost
of education. which is to be free. Many
of the. provinces and-districts are too
poor tc pay for public instruction, and
in consequence il has been proposed
that the expense of maintaining schools
should be paid out of the general insu-
lar revenues. This matter Will. how
ever, be determined by the civil insular
government when it is established, and
will be one of the most important ques-
tons with which the officials will have
TO deal. The natives are said to be will
ing and anxious to furnish the school
buildings. but in many cases they can
do little if anything more than this. IT
is also planned to establish normal
schools for the obstruction of natives in
the art of teaching, and to inaugurate
system of agricultural, commercial, and
trade schools, the latter to give pupils
instruction in manual training, which
will fit them to follow useful mechani-
cal trades. 1t has been proposed to
send corps of American instructors to
the Islands for this purpose.

WANDERING IN THE WOODS.
The Police Pick Up an Italian Girl
Who Speaks No English.

A comely young girl of swarthy COM
plexion, well dressed, and carrying an old
fashioned, black travelling bag, was found
wandering in the woods near Brightwood
Avenue and Marshall Street northwest
at a late hour last night by Mounted
Policeman Boland, of the Eighth precinct
Boland asked the girl number of ques-
tions, but the only answer he received
was a doubtful nod of her head Seeing
that she was unquestionably a foreigner
and unable to speak English. Boland
summoned the patrol wagon. The girl
was conveyed to the stationhouse where
attempts Were made to learn something
of her history. Pictures and drawings of
all descriptions were presented to her,
but the efforts were of no avail
The girl carried an old-fashoned pocket
book, and thinking he might learn some
thing from the contents OF this, Station
keeper Case examined il and found a
piece Of paper upon which was written
'402 Commerce Street Roanoke. Va" A
round-trip ticket was also found in the
purse, the ticket being good for a round
trip passage to Roanoke from Washing
ton. From her appearance and tn, many
silver trnkets that she wore suspended
from her brilliant colored jacket it is
thought she was an Italian. She was
taken to the House of Detention, where
she will remain until an interpreter can

Detected Through Birds Note.
(From Stray stories.)


Trifes are leading to unexpected results,
and experience of a certain musician affords
further instance of the value OF noticing little
things.
The musician in question owned an ebony
flute with silver keys He valued it highly but,
one of the upper notes defective, he sell
dom used it. A young lodged with the
musician. and between the tive a close friend
ship existed.
One night the ebony fute disappeared. having
doubt been stolen. Suspicion fell on several
persons. but nothing could be proved against
any of them. Not long afterward the ledger
went TO live in a town a few miles off, but
the friendship between the two men still existed
they occasionally visited each other.
Nearly a year afterward the musician paid
his friend a visit, and was pleased to find him
in possession of a beautiful bullfnch, which
could distinctly whistle three tunes. The per-
formance was perfect, with the exception that
whenever he came to high note he invaria-
bly, skipped it and went on TO the next.
little reflection convinced the musician that
the note in which the bullfnch was imperfect
was the deficient note his lost flute. So con-
WINGED was he that he questioned the ex-lodger
on the subject. The latter at tremblingly
confessed bis guilt, and added that all the bird
knew had been taught to him the stolen
instrument.

A man came around the corner sud-
denly. This evidently broke up the young
mans original plan, and he snatched the
purse hanging by strap to Mrs. Bark
er's belt, seized her gold-handied UNI
brella and ran. The strap broke as he
seized the purse, and Mrs. Barker was
almost jerked off her feet by the violence
of the young mans action.
Mrs. Balfour was quick to act. She
pursued the man. She screamed for help,
and people ran out from stores and
houses by the dozens. But the man
escaped with money and umbrella.
Mrs Balfour returned TO Mrs. Barker,
who was hysterical She was standing I'm

there would, instead, develop some
close working agreement between
these two gian lines. From this

incalculable advantage to both
Debarred just now from Long
island, the Central might reach that
territory by means of the projected
wards island bridges. and the two
lines, pooling issues, might find
great mutual advantage in such
UNITY. He believed that the Penn

eastern connections. the New York

Boston and Maine. 1t NAV further
profit by having the Central for an

conceivable that it might emplov
this power to obstruct the plans Of

likely that it could Illustrate them
