There was nothing doing" in Boston last

There was nothing doing" in Boston last
week outside Of the convention Of the Ma
tional Teachers, Association, the conse-
quence being that Boston papers gave
themselves up entirely to the visitors and
their proceedings. Thirty thousand teach
ers were there. most Of them women and
most Of them from the West, and the
energy they displayed in attending bust
ness meetings in the warm mornings and
in sightseeing In still hotter afternoons and
evenings aroused great interest and adj
miration. A personally conducted" walk
ing party of 500 was no uncommon sight
Of the week. Souvenirs of the city offered
by street Takers consisted of small clay
pots typifying the Boston baked beans jar.

self with one. Altogether, barring the heat,
visitors and visited seem to have had a
perfectly lovely" time.

A FEMALE ENoCH ARDEN.

The case Of Mrs. Olsen. of Rockford, ILL.,,
is an interesting variation on the usual
Enoch Arden story. In the first place Mrs.
Olsen is a woman. The original Enoch

son was a man. and until this time all his
numerous successors whose histories have
appeared in the newspapers have been
men. ~Tennyson's Enoch. when he re-
turned from his desert island and found his
wife married again, very considerably kept
himself in retirement. only imparting his
secret before his death in time to have 1t
well circulated and to make things pleasant
for his wife by the time the funeral was
over. The later Ardens. however. nave
commonly pursued a different course. Each

himself known to the woman from whom
he had wandered away. and to her second

The TahIcquah Way.

Lot jumping has commenced as
result Of the work of the govern.
ment surveyors. When the sur
veyors laid out the town they
made several erratic crooks in the
streets and alleys and confscated
some property. As consequence
some Of the old property holders
are unable to tell just where their
property ends and the property Of
another begins, and to be on the
safe side, are gobbling up all the
property Of the others that they
can get hold of. There is a grand
scramble on now and the courts
will be called upon to settle the
trouble.

around in falltor buggy. II was a

Contradicted.

For 40 years have seen crows ir
winter in different parts of the coun-
try, passing to and fro between their
rookeries and their feeding grounds
and l have never seen anything like
leadership among them, writes John
Burroughs, in Atlantic, They leave
their roosting places at daybreak
and dispense north and south or east
and west to their feeding grounds, 60
ing in loose struggling bands, and 81
lently, except in early spring, and
they return at night in the same way,
flying low if it is stormy and windy,
and high if it is calm, rising up or
sheering off if they see a gunner or
other suspicious object, but making no
sound, uttering no signal notes. They
all have eyes equally sharp, and do not
need to be warned. Theyare all on the
alert. When feeding they do post
a sentry, and he caws when danger ap-
proaches, and takes to wing. They
do not dart into bush when pursued by
king bird or purple martin; they
are not afraid of a hawk; they cannot
count six, though such traditions ex-
ist (Silver Spot could count 30!) they
do not cav when you stand under them
in winter to turn their course, they do
not drill their young, they do not flock
together in June; they cannot worry
