Merchants Hotel, against NJ. G. Shove,
OF this city, for defrauding a hotel,
tried this morning, verdict for
the defense was rendered and

The announcement was made at
Clinton yesterday to Northwestern
trainmen that the runs are to be rebul-
letined and that bids for the same will
be received by all employees in the train
service up to April 6, the date when the
new book of rules goes into effect. The
runs were bulletined for the year last
November but the institution of the
new rules and the placing of tiagmen
on the runs will necessitate giving the
trainmen another chance to select their
runs. A number of changes will likely
occur principally on the local passen
ger runs, as they will be favored now
in preference to some of the others be-
cause of the additional help of the rear
brakeman or fagman. Before the flag
men were placed on The trains there
was so much work for one brakeman on
these runs that they were not as de-
sirable as they might have been.

Some Beauties Of The L'quo: Habit.

York willie Enquirer.
There is no eni to significant disren-
sary stories, and to print them all
would be impossible, but two have
been brought to the attention OF the
reporter during the past lew days that
ought TO go on record. One of them
is told by lady living oa oue of the
streets leading cut of town and 1t is
true. The other is hearsay, and the
reporter does not vouch for it further
than to say 1t is plausible. The lady g
story is this: "While I was sitting
ON my piazza during Saturday after
noon, I noticed negro woman going
by followed by boy, and in the road
was wagon in which there were
several drunk negroes. The woman
was in high temper, evidently because
OF her husband, and heard her say
to the boy, Couldn't cit you thing
to-day. That trifling daddy of yours
promised me this morning that /
could do some trading, and be has
gone and spent all the mo.ey he had
for him and them other niggers to
git drunk on" The other story is
that white man bought a dollars
worth of meat. had 1t charged up
against his lien at fourteen cents a
pound, traded 1t for eigh cents pound
cash, and bought whiskey with the
proceeds.

has studied ar shirked. Marks tor
each day s recitations are posted once a
week. A long succession OF low marke
means dismissal. Neglect OF studiss is
construed as neglect Of duty, and pun
ished by confinement to quarters.
Discipline is enforced as sternly as
application is demanded. A man who
receives two hundred demerit marks in
any one year is dropped. Demerit
marks are easy to get. A mark is

and during the four years there are
some eighteen thousand such oppor-
TUNES to be late.
From half past FIVE in summer and
from six O'Clock in winter until 10
o'clock at night work is the order OF
the day. Should cadet undertake to
"relax" by smoking a cigarette or
playing q game of cards, 1t would cost
him ten days close confinement. But
these youth who are drilled to make
the most of every minute find odd mo-
ments tor wholesome play, and play as
they study, hard and successfully.
The academy football team does not
hesitate to meet tie best college elevens
and it always gives them Il vigorous
battle. Yet during the whole OF a re-
cent season the West Pointers had
only flfty-six hours offootball practice.
The fact Was that they needed no
training to 'get into condition" Their
manner of life Kept them sin con-
dition."
That is one proof OF the soundness
OF the West Point system. Many
more might be given ii space sufficed-
to tell the experiences of cons of rich
or famous men who went to the
academy expecting that reflected glory
would somehow gild them. But they
found that at West Point nobody
cared who Or what the boys father
was the obligation rested on the boy
to prove that he was ''somebody," and
If he failed in that he had to go back
nome.
From such a democracy OF sound
bodied and clear-headed youth, cherish
ing the ideal expressed in the West
Point motto, "Daty, Honor, Country"
should come many men like the four
thousand graduates whose ne mes adorn
the record of the academy's first cen
tury-men who add strength to the
nation, in war and peace.

70 Make the House Comfortable
in Summer.

From the Delineator.
Heavy portieres and carpets should
be cleaned and packed away, and
everything suggesting heat should be
put out Of sight. The floors should be
stained or covered with mating and a
few choice rugs. Heavily upholstered
chairs may be stored in some unused
room and rattan or cane furniture sub
st,tuted. As glass is great radiator
OF heat, outside shutters or awnlngs will
be found worth many times their cost.
If red Or yellow shades have been used
during the winter, they should be
taken down, carefully wiped, rolled and
tied into compact bundle and put
away until frost comes again. Dark
green shades should replace them, be-
cause they make the room
look cooler. The house should be
opened very early.in the morning to
got the fresh air; and closed before the
sun is high. in particularly warm
weather, sheets wrung out of cold
water and hung before slightly raised
windows will cool the Atmosphere with
astonishing rapid.ty. Even in apart.
ment houses there are often balconies
either at the front or back OF the
house., These. can be made into
charming outdoor rooms il an awning
is put overhead aud boxes fitted along
the sides, where vines and flowers may
be grown. The vines should be of q
quick growing variety which will af-
ford both beauty and shate-for in
stance, the morning glory, the moSn
flower, Or the red Towering bean.
