Record Stamp Year.

The year 1902 will be a memorable
one to philatelists, and will beat all
previous records. They have already
started with the new Edward VII.
stamps. A few months will see the
new Spanish postal issue, which will
be printed after the coronation of Al
fonso XIII, in May. America is print
ing fresh stamps in honor of Mr..
Roosevelt, and Germany announces
an important new stamp for the COM
ing spring. Switzerland is planning
stamp. Russia will celebrate the
second centenary of the building of
st. Petersburg by a fresh issue. FL
nalIy it is hoped by all ardent phila-
telists that a limited number of new
stamps will be printed this year in
honor of the coronation. A collector
protests against the statement that
the philatelists chopped for" limited
number of stamps printed in honor
of the coronation. Special and un-
necessary issues are, he says, detested
by the serious collector, a fact which
raises our opinion of the fraternity
considerably. He says: at is one
of the charms of specializing in the
stamps of Great Britain that this
country has been kept singularly free
from limited issues, which are sup
posed to possess a fictitious value"

The Filipinos should be rather
pleased with that provision of the
new Chinese exclusion bill which
makes the prohibitory legislation ap-
ply to the Philippines as we'll as to
the home country. The Chinese are
now in the islands in large numbers,
but they are not popular with the
natives, perhaps because the industry
of the Mongolians tends to make the
Malays tired.

Basket Ball.

The Morrisville basket ball team
met with their first defeat last Friday
evening, when the Edmunds High
school team of Burlington won out
in hard fought battle at the local
Gymnasium, the score standing 26
to 20. The visitors came on the ex-
press train Saturday evening, which
was an hour late, delaying the game
nearly an hour. At s O'Clock nearly
every seat in the Gym" was taken,
including an extra row on the ground
floor. The receipts at the door we're
$3.50, leaving balance, after pay
ing the expenses of the visitors, of
$3.50. Owing to delay in beginning
the game the spectators were given a
short exhibition game by the two
kid" teams, captained by Carroll
Fisk and Clearance Smith.
At about nine O'Clock the gong was
sounded and what proved to be the
fastest game ever witnessed here was
started. The teams we're evenly
matched and every man played his
position in q manner that left little
to be desired. The score at the end
of the first half was IA to 9 In favor
of the visitors. The second half was
started with rush by the local team
and the ball was in the Morrisvile
basket before it had been in play two
minutes, thus making the score II
and IA. Morrisville was onto the ball
considerably more in the last half
than in the first and had they been
allowed five minutes more time might
have changed the outcome some
what.
The visitors played a clean game
and made very good impression on
their first appearance here. The
scores were made as follows Morris
vile, Sargent, 3 3; l. LeBaron, 3 !;
Cuchman, 3; Fouls 8. Burlington,
Beach, 3 3-3 3; Thomas, 3-3; Black,

Why teachers are Poorly Paid.

The words of a wealthy man, a
large giver to educational work, are
thus reported in newspaper account
of one of his recent speeches " For
the teacher cannot be a slave. She
must think and act for herself. On
her depends the training of the chill
dren of a free people. She rocks the
cradle of the state. What profession
is so noble and SO sacred? All honor
to the teacher
On the same evening he entertained
at dinner the designer OF his yacth,
while the teacher of his children dined
with them, as always, in the servants
ordinary. Besides being the sole en-
ployer ofone teacher for his own little
ones he is trustee of a great school
and has the deciding voice on the sal
airy of the women who do the chief
work in it. On his payroll are teach
ers at $3.50 a year, in city where
hall bedrooms and board at 81 a
week is not considered high, though
it is luxurious for q woman who
would have a balance of $95 for a
years expenditure for clothing,
books, car fare, amusements and
everything else.
This gentleman in an interview on
salaries says "We want the best
teachers, but we don't propose to pay
~ where 81 will do" He is not a
monster of cruelty or selfshness. He
is genial, gracious citizen, generous

Personal Observations,

Mr.. Shaw, the new Secretary of the
Treasury, evidently believes in find
ing out things for himself, and does
not rely wholly on information OBJ
tanned at second hand. He has spent
several days in New York, and put in
the time making personal inspec-
ton OF Custom House operations and
Wall street methods. Sec'y Shaw
has one advantage at present. He
took office so recently that his sub
ordinates have not all become famil-
lar with his appearance, and hence he
is enabled to go about among them
without disclosing his identity. He
turned this advantage to good ac-
count by visiting one of the piers
where a newly-arrived ocean steamer
had been docked. and investig
for himself the working of the much
discussed rule which relates to the
searching of private baggage in order
to ascertain whether or not any duti-
able articles are included therein.
The account of the Sec'retary's visit
says
Secretary Shaw peered down into
the midst of the groups of passen-
gers, where inspectors were examin-
ing their baggage, talked with one or
two custom officials at random, went
down to the clerks desk, where in
spectors are assigned to passengers,
and took notice of a group of two or
three women who were laughing with
An inspector, remarking as he did
so, They don't seem to be ohjocting
to the examination OF course
this does not absolutely SETTLE
the question as to alleged abuses
under the present rules and regule-
tions, but it helps to indicate that
the complaint against the system is
nota general as has been represented.
There is reason to believe that the
loudest cutlery comes from persons
who have attempted to cheat the
government out of revenue due it
under the laws. and have been caught
at it,-IrOV Times.

eight months ended February %,
showed falling off of $21,S53, 1872,
as compared with the like period in
the previous fiscal year. This falling
off, while heavy, is not alarming. 1t
apparently indicates a lessening of
foreign demand for our breadstuffs,
but the decreased demand is due to
the higher prices of grain.
