c. Hamp Leopold alleges Spooner owes

The Ghost" it will be remembered,

sporting streak in his head and Dor

the money loaned Nelson, and the
wheel was in the act of being packed
and shipped to him in New York when
Jack Prince stepped in and kept the

for certain services.

the motor it may remain here indefl-

erty of another. The Ghost" is one of
the fastest pacing machines in the

machine should be involved in legal

March 9.

March 9.
The players of the basket ball team
of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton returned home yesterday morning
from Charleston, where they were de-
ffeated Friday night by the Charleston
team.
The men admit having been defeated
fairly and outplayed at all stages of
the game. The Charleston team is re-
garded as one of the best basket ball
aggregatons in the South. The play
ers have been practicing together for
some time, which fact was mainly the
cause of their victory as they played
well together. The Savannah players
lacked this team work, which handi-
capped them greatly. They will get
down to hard work at once and shape
up for return game, which will be
played in this city on the night of

SCHWAB'S SCHOOL PLAN,
Something Like That of Carnegie,s
In Founding Libraries.


In Founding Libraries.
In letter written to a friend in La.
porte. Ind, Professor w. N. Mailman,
head of Charles NJ. Schwab's Industrial
school at Homestead, Pa, and formerly
superintendent of schools In Laporte,
Ind, outlines Mr.. Schwab's plans with
reference to establishing industrial
training schools at several favorable
points In the west including Laporte,
says the New York Herald.
The plan will be similar to that of
Andrew Carnegie In his library dona-
tons. The city must raise a specified
amount In order to be endowed with
sum, depending on the population,
sufficient to erect proper buildings and
give the institution prosperous start.
1t was learned recently from a per-
sonal friend Of Mr.. Schwab, who is
thoroughly conversant with his in.
tentions, that the plan outlined above,
In the main true, puts the scheme on
rather more comprehensive basis
than has been adopted.
MT. Scnwab has spoken OF the value
that such system of Industrial
schools in different parts of the coun-
try would have, and has planned at
some time in the future to take steps
that would lead to the establishment
of such institutions. He has not def
initely named any cities in the west,
nor, in fact, anywhere, excepting in
pennsylvania. which are to be the re.
cipients of his bounty.
He Las thus far determined only to
erect two schools for industrial train
ing, one in Braddock and the other in
Williamsburg, Pa. These will be sim.
liar In purpose and construction to that
recently dedicated at Homestead, and
each will approximate 100000 in cost
Any further additions to this list are
to be determined In the future.

Hygiene Courses For British Public

The school board of London is trying
to educate the people in hygiene, says
the New York Tribune. 1t has decided
to open twenty experimental classes,
and if these succeed more will be or
ganized. Already eighty head teach
ers have applied to have these classes
started in their evening schools, but at
present only twenty will be opened.
The best lecturers have been selected
for the classes. Different classes of
schools in various districts will be
opened, some among the very poor,
others in better to do working class
neighborhoods. Each lecture is to be
made as practical and as elementary
as possible, and a nontechnical graphic
treatment of the subject is enjoined.
Even if the syllabus be not closely fol.
lowed the practical work is in no case
to be omitted.

TRAP FOR TERRAPlN.
Latest Device Is Made of Wire on
Lines similar to the EeIpOt,

Latest Device Is Made of Wire on
Lines Similar to the EeIpOt.
Every season some new device is in
vented for catching or trapping the
toothsome Maryland terrapin, particu-
larry that delight of the epicure, the
diamond back terrapin, says a Balti-
more correspondent of the New York
Times. Over on the Eastern Shore the
latest device is a trap constructed
about on the same principle as an ell
pot. The body of the trap is made of
wire and the entrance of Irvine so
woven that the terrapin easily enter,
but find it impossible to get out. The
trap Is then filled with bait, for the
most part crushed crabs, and set in
the marsh where terrapin have been
located. The terrapin hunter walks
through the marsh and discovers his
game by the protruding heads, as the
terrapin are compelled to come to the
surface to breathe.
Many of them are drowned in these
traps, and one hunter states that he
has seen twenty-five drowned in this
manner during the present summer.
A terrapin cannot live in one of these
traps over three hours. and thus the
hunter must be on the move constant
~ If he would preserve his game alive.
Ierrapin are also being caught in
purse nets, but these cannot be used in
SHALLOW streams successfully on ac-
count of the numerous stumps of trees
on the bottom.
