"Jaek.a Boy"

"Jaek.a Boy"
Miss Villa Gathers story Jack-a-
boy, published in a recent number Of
the Saturday Evening Post, is a
charming story Of little boy, who
fulfilled his mission TO his neighbors.
as the little legendary Christ kind
used TO do in the old German stories.
Miss Gathers love of children and
the memory Of her own childhood
combined with a remarkable knowl-
edge Of words and their articulation
enables her to write exceedingly well,
of children. Jack-a-B Boy is one who
might have become composer. a
poet, an artist or a writer. He had
the wide, gray eyes that hold the
light and reflect it back augmented,
the eyes OF Stevenson. a Keats, or a
Chatterton. He takes an interest in
the neighbOrhoOd he moves into and
by his lovely and loving sympathy
with all his neighbOrs he destroys
malice and uncharitable gossip. But
like Mrs. Burnetts parodied little
Lord Fauntleroy, and all the Sunday
schoOl-bo0k boys little Jack-a-BOy
dies. When all the good little boys

who are more fatal to good children
than the scarlet fever micrObe.
Except for this yielding to the nat
ural impulse of the short story writer
TO make his story complete by a
pathetic death, this story Of Miss
Gathers is admirable. Letting the
boy die is not a fault. i protest

To start palm seeds is an easy mat
ter. Place half dozen seeds in a six
inch pot, covering them SO they will
be about two inches below the sur
face They should then be we'll wa
tered, and the soil should be kept
fairly moist continually until the
little seedlings push their way up.
The soil should never be allowed to
dry out, nor should 1t be kept soggy.
Another good plan Is to place all the
seeds in box Of moist sand and ex-
anime them every few days. Those
that burst and begin TO sprout may be
potted, If well started, IN small pots.
II should be borne in mind that the

Remains of the Late Senator Davis
Taken to Washington.
Mrs.. Davis Suddenly Makes Up Her Mind
That His Final Resting Place Shall
Be In tho National s
Cemetery. H.. ~ .lz1A y

Mrs. G. X. Davis, of St. Paul, left for
Washington, taking with her the re-
mains of her husband, the late senator,
who died last November. s... IS. ~, s
Since the death of the senator, his
remains have rested in the vault at
Oakland cemetery, and the intention
OF Mrs. Davis to remove them to Wash
ington was not generally known.
The men at the st. Paul union sta
ton, when they transferred the plain
black casket from the baggage truck
to the Burlington train were unaware
that they were handling the coffin
which contained the body of the dis
tinguished senator from Minnesota.
The utmost secrecy attended the
transfer of the remains from the ceme-
terry vault to a St. Paul undertaking
parlor, where they remained until they
were taken to the station.
Early in the summer Mrs. Davis
wrote to Mayor Smith of St. Paul, ask
Ing the city to set apart plot on Sum-
NIT avenue for the site of a tomb for
the remains of her husband. She in
Dictated at that time that unless such a
step was taken she would have the re-

ing was done, and for this reason Mrs.
Davis is thought to feel that Washing
ton will be a more suitable resting
place. She will spend the winter there.

PUPILS Are Numerous,

There are over 4o6, 900 pupils attend
ing school in Minnesota at the present
time, an increase of 1000 over the en-
rollment of last year, according to re-
ports made by county superintendent.
Considering the population of the state
the showing is the best made by any
state in the west. In 1860 there were
but 1000 pupils in the public schools.
The increase in forty-one years has
been over 100000, an average OF over
5000 year, or an increase of 1854 per
cent.
Since 1890 there has been an of 1885,
900, or an average increase of 1000
per year. The school population has
increased in much greater proportion
than has the population of the state.
The $50 school houses in 1860 have
Increased to 5000 in 1901; the number
of teachers from 700 to $4,000, and the
average salary of teachers from SIG to

A Silent Team,

Minneapolis has a team of football
players which is quite unique. They
play the game absolutely without noise.
All ''rooting,'' in the commonly &C.
cepted term of the word, is barred.
There is no yelling. Even the signs
are given inaudibly. The game is
played in silence, but it is hard fought
nevertheless, and the team is no mean
antagonist. Noise, and lots of it, has
come to be regarded as necessary to
football, but with this team noise is
not a part of the game. They are all

An Editor with a Backbone.

THE TRIBUNE wants to shake hands with the Nashville News. It has an editor that is made of the right sort of stuff.
 A few days ago Deputy United States Marshal Holman, under Stahl. demanded his paper stop ped because it had given out an expression in favor of Hon. B. M. Foreman against Holman's chief for the United States Marshal ship. The editor of the News il- lustrates two points by his mention of the matter. One is the bulldoz- ing, coercing tactics of Stahl's henchmen to boost him back into office, and also discloses an inde- pendendence that is entirely be- coming newspaper in all such matters. The News says:
 "As MT. Holman is only in ar- rears a couple of months on sub- scription, we did not take the trouble to send him statement. We have, however, stop ped sending the paper to him, as it is not our policy to insist upon anyone taking The News who does not want it. If any person, at any time, does not like the pos- ition taken by this paper on any subject, and desires to discon- tinue their patronage for such a reason, or for any other reason, we will gladly erase their name from our books if they will notify us and pay up to date. The News will continue to appear twice a week, notwithstanding that Capt. Holman has withdrawn his patronage. If Capt. Holman, or any other person, thinks he can dictate the policy of the News by subscribing or by withholding the munificient sum of S1. 50 which is charged for the paper, or by giving or withholding from the paper any amount of patronage he certainly does not know the editor. The utterances of many papers are controlled by the counting room, but The News is not one of them, and those who kno ow the paper best know that it is edited in this office and not by outsiders"

In announcing the future policy the Daily Times Echo, the editor makes use of the following timely argument in favor of the course it will pursue in the future. "The paper will have the same brand of courtesy for all political parties just as it has for all re- ligious or other factional organi- zations.
