JUDG ES IN ,J1FI.

It is not often that judges get into jail perhaps not often enough, but two
 of the three judges of St. Clair county,
 Missouri, are there, and they will stay
 The third one will join them if he can
 be caught. Thirty-one years ago, when
 the building of railroads in Missouri
 was encouraged by the issue of subsi-
 dies in the form of bonds, the county put out l$25,000 worth of bonds for railroad through its territory. The company failed to build the road, but the bonds, which had passed into the hands of other parties, were held by the federal courts to be valid and properly collectible The judges of the county, who, under Missouri law, are the per- were ordered by mandamus to raise the required amount by taxation and liqui- date the claim. For time the order was observed and number or the bonds were paid, but as the county res- idents not unnaturally got tired of paying taxes for a railroad which they never secured they soon began to pro- test. The later judges whom they elected were in sympathy with the popular view, refused to obey federal court orders and were imprisoned for contempt. Since that time every St. Clair county judge has either lived through his term in prison or as fu- gitive from the law, appearing in court only at such times as his fellow citi-

It is argued that as an education al force the hall would be both unique and efficient There will be gathered at the exposition data in every field of philanthropy, showing the latest meth- dds in handling social questions.

The Berlin Royal Library has just &C., cuired a valuable collector of auto- graphs of musicians. It was made by Artaria, publisher of many of Beetho- ven'e works who got the best part of 1t for a few hundred forins from Beetho- 3ven's heirs when that composer died. There are ninety-three autographs of Beethoven, including some of his most famous works; thirty-two of Haydn, and others by Schubert, Rossini, Pag- sanini, etc. After keeping these seventy years the Artaria family offered them fer sale by auction. To prevent the col lection from being scattered, Dr. Erich Prieger, of Bonn, paid $5o,0o0 for it, ex- pecting the Prussian government to buy it from him. It has now, after four years of negotiating, done so, but for the same sum that he paid.

A Hamburg schoolteacher recently
 undertook to find out what his pupils knew about common things. Out of 12O children between 10 and 16 years of age sbS had never seen flock of sheep, 70 had never seen a violet growing, 90 had never heard nightingale, S9 had never seen the sun rise and 33 had not seen it set, 49 had never seen man plough. He asserts that while city children may know about theaters and concerts, ex- shibitions, museums and stores, hum dreds of the simplest things in life are mere words to them that convey no coherent idea.
