Although the rainfall in Missis-

been comparatively light, it has
been vastly beneficial to all growing
vegetation, and effectually checks
the drouth which was working such
injury to the corn and Gotten crop.
The outlook is still considerably
above the average, and ordinarily
good weather during the next few

new YORK
REALIZES
ITS Value
viii Adopt System Of Detective
Schools Started and Success.
fully Conducted In This City

Providence was the FIRST city In the
country TO successfully introduce defect
i've schools on the ungraded plan for
backward OF troublesome pupils as a
feature of It's educational system and now
New York 10 to adopt the same.
Commissioner Mack of the metropolis
has I'm mind the general outline Of the
work. which would be based upon the
experiments pursued In this city and some
systems IN Great Britain. TO begin with.
he believes tho classes for defcients must
be 30 arranged as 90 carry with them no
stigma.
In the second place. the number of pu-
pills must be very small. so that the
teacher, who must have unusual qualih-
cations, may be able 10 give TO each child
the Individual instruction which he needs.
and which, In the large regular classes,
Is impossible. To aid the less strong mind
all devices Of manual art and sloyd would
be employed.
The class, however. would not be solely
for detectives IL would be a place also
for the special coaching OF children who
do not make good progress in some par
ticular subject In the regular school
room.
Mr.. Mack said: 'The introduction of the
plan IN New York city may lead 10 some
opposition at first from parents and dema-
gogues. who might criticise the segrega-
tion OF children OF this type. Eventually,
however. it's value will be recognized and
people will see that through this plan,
and only IN this way. can we make cer-
tain types Of children useful to them
selves and to the city. 20 accomplish
this we must take every precautfon 70
avoid the attaching Of any stigma TO such
pupils. and for this reason favor classes
rather than special schools, which would
be too marked In their purpose and too
definite In their separation"
The plan suggested by Mr.. Mack Of not
making separate schools for these pupils.
but having classes for them I'm order TO
avoid the stigma that might attach to
them. is a step further than the idea has
been carried In this city.

boat Russell Chatfieid II years old, re-
turned home at l o'clock this morning.
His parents had almost given him up for
lost.
The young man is the son OF Minotte
e. Chatfield. a wealthy paper manufac-
turer OF this city. Yesterday morning n
boat belonging TO Mr. sChatheld broke
from Its moorings and drifted out into the
sound. Russell started out to make a
search for IL. He soon found the wind
and tide carrying him far out I'm the
sound and his efforts TO row back were
without avail. Searching parties went
out TO look for him without success.
When young Chatfield reached home he
was exhausted. He said he had been
carried nearly to the Long Island shore
before the conditions changed and he
was eager TO row back. The weather
wns squally with occasional rains, and he
was without food or sufficient clothing.

SURPRISED
Illinois Man Wasn't Expecting
to See Such Mammoth Buildings

Worlds Fair, St Louis. Aug. N.-The
surprise of an Illinois man upon seeing
for the first time the great buildings and
ground OF the Worlds Fair is typical Of the
experience OF all strangers who come out
10 see the vast enterprise near two years
In advance OF the opening. The Lincoln
old Herald says. "A Lincolnian who
visited the site OF the St Louis Worlds
Fair was impressed by the two things.
the extent OF the grounds and the sizo
OF the buildings. Expecting to find an ex-
position covering a limited amount OF
space and modest In scope, he was more
than surprised to discover that St Louis
was not going to do things by halves,
but was planning more than a rival for
the greatest exposition previously known
I'm history the famous worlds fair In
Chicago. The grounds are twice as large,
the size of the buildings far greater and
the number OF large exhibit buildings Is
I'm place of Chicago's nine or ten.
"At present onecan see but the skele-
tons of the great exposition halls and
palaces. There Is no beauty there; the
painters and decorators are not due for
some time yet, but the vastness OF the
great lines OF steel, wood and masonry
are awe-inspiring. IL can be safely said
that st. Louis is going 10 have worlds
fair that Is a worlds fair.
When the present grounds which are
now masses OF loose dirt or rough land
overgrown with weeds, are touched by the
magic wand OF the landscape gardener,
a marvellous change will be wrought The
grounds afford a golden opportunity for
Transformation into a scene OF beauty.
Size. natural advantages and situation
are there and II needs but the space OF
time and the handiwork OF man TO make
the grounds as beautiful as any seen at
international expositions."

NO SPEEDWAY
Reservoir Avenue TO Be Opened
to Electric Gar Travel.

At the earnest request OF abutting own
ers on Reservoir avenue. the tracks OF
the Elmwood avenue route OF electrics
are to be extended southerly on Reser-
voir avenue for a distance of not quite a
mile.
This track laying work. which was be-
gun yesterday, will destroy the only pub
lie speedway In this city
The avenue has been a great sporting
centre during the sleighing periods and
many spirited races for fun and for mar
bles have been pulled of there between
gentlemen drivers.
The speedway has been kept in an ex-
cellent condition and IL was hoped by
horse fanciers that that one spot would
be left for them TO speed on.
The petitions from house, builders and
owners, from the Gorham Manufacturing
company, which corporation desired that
Its employees should have the advantages
accruing from a quick street car SER
vice, settled the fate of the speedway.
