wbere pupiI. "Run" a school.

Said a. critical visitor in an upper

bring about this feeling among the
boys but nok that it is i'll the air there
is woe unto the rascal who dares even
as much as make a lead pencil mark
upon the wall. And what is most to
the point is that the woe is not meted
out by the teacher or principal but
by the fellow-pupils of the offender.
This school, by the way, is pointed
out as a marvel in that it has stood
the. test of four years use, while to the
visitor it gives the impression of hav-
ing been just opened. From the
ianitor to the principal all the officials
there disclaim any credit for these
splendid conditions. In the words Of
one of the teachers, the system echoes
the sentiment of Lincolns Gettysburg

the people, for the people shall not
perish from the earth. -

now He Fooled the Dog.

4 gentleman who is fond of study
ing wild animals in their natural sur
rcundings once had an opportunity Of
seeing for himself an example of the
cunning for which the fox has become
proverbial.
AS he was standing near the bank
of a river one winter day he saw
fox run out upon the ice and make
straight for a hole. At the edge Of
the opening he stopped, turned fol-
lowed his tracks back to the bank
ran down the stream and paused to
await developments.
In a little while n dog came tearing
cut of the woods, with his nose close
to the ice and snow. He ran along the
ice with his head down, following the
scent until he reached the opening. 1t
was then too late to check his speed.
He plunged into the water and was lost
Under the ice.
The fox meantime had waited in
plain sight to watch the effect of his
l!ttle trick

How the Pace Tells.

win be surprised to notice what a

Look at the men in the banks and
trust companies, for instance, or in
brokers' Offices and on the floor of
tie stock exchange. You will see many
whose eyelids or mouths twitch, or
they will jerk their necl1s or heads,
or tap constantly with their fingers
or toes. Everything in business is
going at a nerve wreekihg speed.
Zone of our millioraires who has
been mentioned frequently of late in
connection with a new charitable in

men who have undertaken TO assume
the responsibility Of looking after his

posed Changes lmme-
diately.

Extensive changes and improve
ments, it is semi. officially stated, will
be made in the Baltimore and Ohio
yards here the coming spring. They
were decided upon by the official party
that visited this place last week.
One of the proposed changes is n
double track from the DYpard mine
east of the city to the point where the
Short Line track passes under the B.
20. The new track will run along
thesouthern side Of the main line
from the tunnel to point west OF the
passenger depot and will then deviate
toward Baltimore street and continue
down that street until theShort Line
track is reached. A mammoth I'LL will
have to be made on the western end
of the new track to connect IL with
the Short Line.
Surveyors began Monday on the pro-
posed route and are working in the
East End.
This track was deemed necessary to
properly handle The coal shipments,
which are growing heavierevery day.
The passenger and freight depots
will also be moved back and greatly
enlarged. The tracks will also be
shielded and other improvements will
be made with a view to giving first
class service.
