She Made 1t Clear.

In suburb of a Western city
lives an old German couple named
Skimmekopf. The husband,
Fritz, has two dogs, of which he
is very fond. One is pup, while
the other is quite old; but as some
times occurs with dogs of differ
ent breeds, the old dog is much
smaller than the six months old
puppy.
"Dere vas Something's funny
aboud dem dogs allreatty," said
Fritz, who was showing them to
a friend the other day. "Dot
liddlest dog was de biggest"
Mrs. Skimmekopf, realizing
that her husband had not made
the point quite clear, thought she
had better come to his assistance.
"Yon mus5 eggscuse mine hus-
band," she said. "De English

Loyal to Old Keystone.

Through the influence of the
Porto Rican commissioner of ed
ucation, Martin Grove Brum-
baugh, A. M. Ph. D., the develop
ment of the sunny isle has just
received notable impetus in An
drew Carnegie's gift of S1O0, 900
for public library. The library
will be built in the Plaza Colon at
San Juan, and will contain 5000
English and Spanish volumes.
Definite plans will be formulated
when DR.. Brumbaugh confers
with Mr.. Carnegie some time this
month. DR.. Brumbaugh is not a
stranger to Pittsburgers. He has
lectured before local audiences a
number of times, and has many
ardent admirers here. Endowed
with charming and inspiring in
dividuality, he has made himself
one of the foremost educators of
the country. Less than % years
ago he was a lad in a mountain vii
lage of Huntingdon county, Pa.
On the eve of an intended secret
departure for the West an uncle
happened to offer to aid him in
furthering hi education. His
trunk, already packed, was sent
to college instead of to the Rockies.
He served as superintendent of
schools in his county two terms
and afterward pursued his stud
les in Harvard and the University
of Pennsylvania, and later in Ger
many. In 1898 he was placed in
charge of the department of ped
agogy at the University of Penn
sylvania, and was elected presi-
dent Juniata college at Hunting
don. He filled both positions ac-
ceptably, and has lectured exten-
sively throughout the country.
Last year he was granted a leave
of absence from his duties to as
sumo a position as one of the Por.
to Rican commissioners. The
schools in the island have develop
ed wonderfully through hisorgan.

built with insular funds, have
been opened, and about 200 En-

Heretofore there had been nc

Proposed New Postal Notes.

An effort is to be made before
Congress to put in operationasys-
tenn of postal currency. The OBJ
ject is to provide the means for
sending small amounts of money
through the mails safely. The
idea is to print of 81, 81 and IS de-
nominations in the same forms as
bills of those denominations now
in circulation as money, with the
exception that blank spaces will
be left for the name and address
of the payec. A blank space is
also left for u two-cent stamp.
When. a person desires to send
money to pay II newspaper sub
scriptiOn orany other small debt,
he has simply to take a 81 bill or
one OF any other denomination
from his pocket, write in the
name of the person to whom he
wishes the money to go, put 9
cent stamp on to pay the govern
ment fee, enclose in an envelope
and mail the bill, which has be-
come by his act check on the
government instead of a piece of
currency. The person who re-
ceives this government check can
deposit it in any bank or have it
redeemed at the local post office.
1t finally reaches the treasury de-
partment, where a new note is to
be issued to replace it. 1t is
claimed for this system that it
will keep the small notes circula-
ting as money cleaner and fresher
than they are now, aud that the
government will derive a consid-
cradle income from it. The sys-
tenn is approved by some of the
post Office authorities, and by
some it is urged that fractional
postal currency should also be
furnished in paper, like the old
fashioned shin plaster money
which was current during the
civil war.

Parents should be on the alert
to quell the tendency that one
child in the family has to demand
more of the others than is just

kuStralia'S Gold Jubilee.

This is the jubilee year of the
discovery ofgold in Australia, and
the event is TO be commemorated
by Il great mining exhibition in
BendigO next month. On the sis
ter gold field of Ballarat, where
the precious metal was first found
on September /, 1851, the surviv-
ors of that epoch have held a So
cial gathering They adopted a
resolution "that this meeting hon
ors the memory of the pioneers
who have peacefully passed away,
and also the memory of those who
fell before the forces of despot-
ism. This is an allusion to the
engagement fought between the
imperial forces, under the com
mand of General Sir Robert Nick
lie, and the insurgent diggers of
Ballarat, on December 3, 1854.
The Hon. Peter Lalor, the com
mander-in chief of the rebel dig
gers, lost ap arm in the fight,
was elected as the first member
for Ballarat, became minister
OF the crown, was thrice elected
speaker of the Victorian parlia-
ment, and twice declined knight
hood. His statue, by London
sculptor, Nelson Maclean, stands
in the center of the golden city.
