Consolidating Rural Schools.

From the Review of Reviews.
The new mandate that has gone forth
is to the effect that neighboring districts
must consolidate in order to build a good
central school building, with several
rooms and several teachers, and a conse-
quent opportunity for grading the schol-
ars. It Is further deereed that the chill
dren must be brought to this central
school on cooperative plan, in suitable
conveyances for protection from cold and
wet and fatigue Further, it is in the air
that the new consolidated country school
must adapt its methods Of instruction to
the real conditions Of life. It must be q
social and intellectual center for grown
up people as we'll as for the children of
the region. 1t must have an ample piece
Of ground and this must be kept in the
most perfect order, as one of the primary
interests and duties of the school, Nature
study. must enter largely into school life
and work, and a positive taste for rural
pursuits and for the elements of the nat
ural sciences must be inculcated. The
school grounds must furnish object leg
sons in the planting and maintenance Of
trees and flowers, and, In so far as possi-
BILE, may well be utilized to teach prac-
tical gardening. A certain amount of
manual training for both girls and boys
should enter into the work Of the school,
and every nedghborhood should strive to
surpass all others in its zeal to secure
good teachers by offering proper induce
ments.

MAN WHO HOLDS THE DRILL.
An Example of Unconscious Courage
In Humber Fields Of Work.

From the New York Mail and Express
did 1t ever strike you that courage Is
largely the result Of environment-or,
rather, custom?' asked the elderly philoso-
pher. I'VE read and hear about the man
behind the gun who has gone down into
history, the storming of San Juan HILL the
thousand and one deeds of heroism which
obtain in every war. But we overlook little
incidents right under our eyes. They seem
SO commonplace In comparison with war
fare that they are scarcely reckoned, be-
cause there is a mercenary end to them
The elderly philosopher was standing on
Park row as he spoke. In the middle of the
street a gang of laborers was at work dig
ging, drilling. hauling. lifting and doing
the thousand and one things which charac-
terize the interminable alterations which
the street car companies are ever making.
Now, there is a real hero, in my eStima-
ton resumed the elderly philosopher, in
dicating a laborer who sat on the edge Of
the excavation. He held firmly to a short
drill, while three fellow laborers aternated
in bringing their heavy SledgeS down on
the battered top of the drill with all the
strength at their command The face of
the man who held the drill was absolutely
impassive. He gazed around him idly, al
| most boredly, and presumably think
ing of his home in sunny Italy. Now and
then he shifted the drill, so that It's cutting
edge took a rev direction. And all the
while the ponderous hammers in the hands
of his mates were descending with crushing
force.
Nothing very heroic looking about him,
is there?" queried the elderly philosopher.
But see the chances he Is taking. The
slightest deviation of those hammers from
their course would MAIN him for life, If
not kill him. He is at the mercy of his
fellow workers. If one of those hammers
should fail to hit the end of the drill it
would go crushing down upon the hands
which hold it. Can you imagine the result
Of that impact Of heavy steel against frail
bone and muscle? The man would surely
lose one, perhaps both hands, and his
working days would be over. Yet he sits
there, apparently oblivious of his peril and
even whistles at times.
mind you, 1 don't mean to say that the
man holding the drill would have courage
enough to lead forlorn hope charge a
battery against opposing odds. That's not
his business. But 1 do think that in hold
Ing that drill for men to pound with nam
mers he shows innate heroism that is cir
cumscribed by dollars and cents.
NOW, you are not deficient in courage"
continued the elderly philosopher to his
friend, but 1 will wager you bottle Of
wine you will not hold the drill for ten
minutes when the next hole is to be bored"
But the younger man pleaded pressing
business engagement.

WORLDS FREEST PORT.
Dalny, the New Russian Commercial
Center in North China.

From the Boston Transcript.
Never was there such another town as
Dalny, Russia's new commercial seaport in
north China. 1t was built to order for one
emperor on the territory of another. Nicho-
las, car of all the Russias ordered the
creation of the town after his emissaries
had persuaded Kwang Hsu, ruler Of count
less millions of Chinese, that it was a
worthy project. In the beginning not two
years ago, Nicholas invoked the blessing of
God upon the undertaking, truly peace
full, and took upon himself the care Of build
ing the new city and it's port
Dalny is city without a country, if such
thing is possible. No particular flag has
more right to fly above it than another. 1t
is the freest port in the world. They have
not even built a custom house and no I'M
port or export duties will be collected on
any sort of goods whatever. Even the
moderate rates of Chinese Gust oms will not
be charged goods landing or to be ex-
ported thence.
If Dalny ever grows to a large city, as
those acquainte ed with eastern trade condi-
tions say it WILL it will be most cosmopoli-
TAM Its tendency in that direction is shown
already. There is a population of $4,000
persons, mostly Chinese, but with nearly
every other nationality represented. In the
architectural style of the houses and the
puiIulhSs areduy competed tnlS is SHOWN
more distinctly. Combinations of modern
and ancient. Of occidental and oriental
such as are in the houses of Dalny, can be
found nowhere else.
Take one of the most prominent houses in
the foreign residence quarter, for instance
The first floor is full of French lines, the
second half timbered after the old English
style, the half story above is Chinese, and
on the pagoda-like roof are set Russian
chimneys. German traces predominant in
the adjoining house, with its stepped cop
ing, but 1t has English doors and windows
and porches like those In Japan and China
In the distance is a group Of American
Around many of the houses are stone
fences with fancy tops, after the idea
which prevails in Assyria.

All He Was Paid For.

From the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune
The leader of the band frowned as he
brought the music to a standstill in the
middle of bar.
Say. Pumpernickel,' he demanded, in a
loud whisper. >"what do you mean by play
ing a lot of half notes where there should
be whole?"
Pumpernickel took the horn off his neck.
WELL" said he. II made eXplanationings
by you. You remember dot you cud down
my wages to halluf. don'd you?"
The leader stared in amaZement. He had
done so. but
"Und so I gontinungs to make der nodes

RANGE OF THE RAMAPOS.
A Wild Region Close to New York
CITY,

From the New York Mail and Express.
Who would believe that within thirty
two miles of New York city there are
mountain dwellings in a district SO wild
and rough that they are inaccessible even
to the feet of ponies; that no produce
can be taken out to nor supplies brought
in from these farms save on the backs
of men; that the people gain their living
by making baskets, wooden spoons and
such light articles they can transport
on their shoulders; that even the bodies
of the dead cannot be taken out, but
must be buried in the forest or in the
yards of the mountain, cabins? A re-
gion where the people are as primitive in
their ways, though not so lawless in their
tendencies, as the Tennessee mountain
GERS? 1t Is hard to believe, but it is true.
When in the middle of August, I
pitched my tent the easterly side of
the easterly range of the Ramapos. in
Rockland county, close to a mountain
stream, l did not know that just over
the range of these wild mountains de-
scendants of the Tory rangers Of 1776
were yet to be found. / did not know
that the higher reaches of the mountains
were tolerably full of rattlesnakes of great
size and beauty. l did not know that the
wild dogs lived up there. l only perceived
that the hills were beautiful, the air pure
and invigorating, the woods practically I'M
broken, and the streams clear and cold
I perceived that there were no swells'
places anywhere in the hills, and that the
wood-rangers pasturage was unbroken. The
people whom l met were cordial, smiling,
unsuspiciCus. | liked the Ramapos as the
result of only a glance, and liked them
still better after a camping acquaintance
of a couple of weeks.
1t certainly did not decrease my inter-
est to know that, beginning some twenty
or more years ago. sundry domestic dogs
of large size, finding in the Ramapo
woods no one to say them nay had fed
from the lowland farms to the hills, and
had, after going quite wild, started a
breed of creatures which has now taken
on quite a type of its own.
