An innoccnt-looking little mouse
caused considerable excitement in the
Baptist church at Pennington, n. j.,
sccording to the Philadelphia Record.
where revival services we're in prog.

in the middle Of hi, address when he

there was increased confusion. While
most Of the male members looked up.
m the affair in an entirely different
light, the women gathered their
skirts about their forms and stood up.
The women brcathcda sigh Of relief
when Pastor Temple made .hc an.
nouncemcnt that all those who were
afraid should place their feet upon the
rounds Of their chairs. No time wa.
lost in assuming this attitude. and
then the services were resumed. A
few minutes later the naughty mouse
made lis appearance again. and this
time ran up to within a few feet Of
where Mr.. Temple stood. THE little
animal stopped a moment. sized ur
the congregation snd then ran back

Everybody saw the mouse run TO.

sERvrA's SCHOOL SYSTEM.
Remarkable Advancement Of People
Since Education Become Compulsory.

Since the time Of King Michael
Servis has had an excellent school .ys.
TEN and law making education com.
ulsory. All children between the
aye. Of =, and II must attend school,
and since 1866, when only 4 per cent.
Of the population could read and
write, there has been remarkable adj
yancemcnt. writes W. l.. Curtis. in the
Chicago Record Herald. There are
a number Of academies, a school Of
commerce, an agricultural college. a
school Of wine culture and a uniyer-
sity with 1876 students Of whom 2s are
women. IN addition TO these there are
" "hospitens" or guests-studcnis
who are too poort to pay the matricula-
ton fees, but are allowed to attend
the lectures and enjoy the full benefit
Of the university training without re-
ceiying degrees. The university occu-
pies a fine building opposite the prin-
cipal square, with a wcll-selectcd IL
barry Of 10000 volumes. The entire
expense Of the university is paid by the
national treasury, and during the year
1900 cost $l09,O 900. There are four
facultics-law, medicine, science and
philosophy.
Some Of the school building. are
excellent examples Of modern con.
'truction and convenience, and they
show an educational enterprise that
is creditablc TO the country. The
government supports a museum Of
natural history. a theatcr for the en-
eouragcmcnt Of opera and the drama
in the native tongue. and q small pic
ture gallery. which contains an inter-
c'ting collection Of portraits Of ma
sional characters and several ex-
amplcs Of old masters which have been
presented from time to time. There
are also anumber Of paintings by ma
tive artists. One Of them. rcprc,cnt-
ing the coronation Of an early king Of

the Paris salon in 1900. and was pur-
chased by the government a. an en-

Besides, il sounds vaguely like a mild

LARGER SCHOOL BUILDINGS RE-
OUIRED.

Owing to the recent large influx Of
population into Western Canada II
has become absolutely necessary In
many parts Of Manitoba, Assiniboia,
Saskatchewan and Alberta to In.
crease the school accommodation. In
many places buildings have been
erected that are only half-occupied.
This is perhaps rs good evidence as
will be found not only Of their salts
faction with their present school sys-
TEN and their confidence that IL will
remain as IL Is, but also of their firm
belief in the future expansion OF the
country. in increased immigration,
and IL further indicates that they
have little fear that the well estab-
lished rate Of births In civilized COM
munities will not be maintained
there.
The free homestead laws and the
cheap railway lands offer great in
ducemcnts. which are opening up the
new settlements. Agents OF the Gov
eminent Of Canada are actively ut
work In different portions OF the
States for the purpose OF giving In
formation TO possible settlers, and
advertisements are now appearing In
a large number Of papers. giving the
names and locations OF these Agents.
