MEMORIALS 10 AMERICANS.

Many American boys and girls visit
Europe nowadays, but perhaps few
even of these fortunate young folk
are aware that the greatest of Eng
lish cities contains memorials to five
distinguished Americans: President,
a patriot, poet, preacher, and q
philanthropist. There five great men
are Abraham Lincoln, James Russell
Lowell. Henry Wadsworth Longfel-
low, Matthew Simpson, and George
Peabody-fve names written high in
the Hall of Fame, names immortal in
life and letters, names forever illus
trious in character and achievement.

lean Memorials in London" in st.

NATURES MASTER FORESTER.
The Douglas squirrel, of California
has been termed by John Muir. the
master forester of nature. About Sc
per cent. of the cones OF the big trees
are eaten and stored away by him.
Seeing man for the first time he
approaches until within few feet
then with an angry outburst he makes
sudden rush, all teeth and eyes, at
IL about to eat you up. Finding that
the man is not afraid, he beats a re
treat to tree, from which he recon
noiters. Gathering courage, he ven
lures down, churring and chipping
Now down, now up. he goes, in Jerk,
curious loops, as If showing of ant
demanding your admiration. Then h,
settles in branch, and, beating tint
with his tail, he says. "cheeup! chez
up!"
WRITING YOUR COMPOSITIONS.
When you take notes, write then
on separate slips of paper or sucl
cards as are used in card indexine
This plan has two advantages, 1t en-
ables you to group your information
| together by putting similar notes o.
the same card; and then, when yol
come to the writing, you may chang
about your notes until you have plat
| ed them in the right ord e Iur your
| cnpan,. los. 11Ils plan was recon-
mended by Edward Eggleston after
he had learned that 1t was easy to be
lost in ones notes. You meet not
buy the cards, as small pad will
serve every purpose by tearing of the
leaves as you fill them or finishes one
part of your subject Let the leaves
BIZ small or you will put two much ON

LIKE TO PLAY HIDE AND SEEK
Did you know that many animals
like to play and romp Just as little
boys and girls do? You have all seen
the monkeys at the Zoo and how they
torment and chase one another, but
did you know. also, that even the birds
and animals like the badger and
weasel like to frolic.
"A well-known German named Beck
man had a pet badger and dog who
used to have great sport together
"They used to have series Of gym
nastic performances" he writes, ION
every pleasant afternoon, and their
four-footed friends came from far and
near to witness the performance. The
game was that the badger, roaring and
shaking his head like a wild boar
should charge upon the dog and strike
him in the side with its head; the
dog, leaping dexterously entirely over
the badger. awaited second and
third attack, and then made the bad
ger chase him all around the garden.
II the badger managed to snap the
dogs hind quarters they would have
an angry tussle. but never a real
fight" 2.

GAMES THE WORLD OVER.

Do you know that in Japan there
are no helpless people? The profess

the blind. II the blind person has no
ear for music, massage is adopted,
with the result that the blind people
become not only very skilful, but self

this is not SO here In America?
Do you know that dolls are made so

In Japan, that they often last one hun

Do You know that the games you
boys and girls play in America, are

as pronounced by the children of other
countries would not be familiar to
your ears? London bridge, spy, tag

 An injunction was granted restraining the Commissioners from enforcing the order. The injunction was sustained at a hearing in Chancery Court and the case was appealed to the Supreme Court which sent 1t back without ac- tion, declaring that the case was not in its Jurisdiction.

Great disappointment is heard over a failure of the officers of the Florida State troops, aided by regular army of . ficers, to select one or both of the Pen sacola companies as a part of the pro- vfsfonal regiment to make the trip to Manassas for the army maneuvres. The announcement was made in Jackson Vile last evening and wired here to- day that there would be none of the West Florida companies represented in the twelve organizations selected to make the journey. and this has caused disappointment. Drilling was held nightly previous to the encampment by the local troops for no other purpose than to prepare the young soldiers in the mysteries of the military tactics in order that each of them would come up to the standard required. Word Is received that the locals are on the verge of riot because of not being allowed to make the trip. The twelve com panies selected are from St. Augustine. Jacksonville, Miami, Orlando.
