NO ROOM TO MOVE.
iHcident which Occurred on q
Crowded Elevated Traln--yrh@
Young Lndy'a Answer.

She was evidently n young LADY, Of
literary proclivities, for she carried
under her arm a formidable array
of books, and as soon as she entered
the elevated train she sank down
into the first seat she saw and be-
gan industriously studying one Of
her pondsrous tones, says the New
York Times. She never noticed that
the car had become more and more
crowded, but went serenely on read
ing and marking and jotting down
items and behaving with the same
unconscious ease that she might
have displayed In her own private
library. All at once her umbrella
was knocked out Of place by some
hasty foot in passing. Beirg too
much engrossed to look up q the
offender, she simply grasped the han.
die and endeavored 90 replace the
umbrella in the place from which
t had been kicked. Something WIS
IN the way. though. and the Young
lady. thinking that the mating on
the floor had probably ioosened. con-
tinued vigorously 20 work az her um-
hrella. The little hiliy place would
not give. however SO she gathered
al her reserve strength. carefully
pu. her thumb on her hook. and de-
voting her entire attention to the
umbrella pressed heavily upon H..
Than. and then only. some one leaned
kindly down. "Pardon me. LADY,
said panied voice IN her ear. shut
that's my foot and have an IN
grown toeuaii I really can's move
Il. you know; there isn't room" The
girl looked UP. and her eyes enroun.
tered those of young man with
blonde hair and silk hat. Er
laughed and his companion. also
topped Of by n silk hat. laughed too.
The girl flushed very red. She knew
they were making fun Of her. 80 she
tossed her heed. "whv don't vou

On with her book.

100000 SCHOOL
APPROPRIATION
Supt. Benedict Submits Rules
For Its Disposal.

John D. Benedict, superintendent
of schools for Indian Territory, has
completed his recommendations for
rules governing the expenditure Of
100000 appropriated by congress TO
strengthen tribal schools and arrange
for the attendance Of white children
In country schools, and the report has
been submitted 70 the secretary
through the Indian inspector.
The recommendation of the super
intendent, 1t must be understood, are
not final as they will have TO pass the
department Of the interior as well as
the commissioner OF Indian affairs. In
school matters, however, the recon-
mendations of Mr. Benedict have in
the past been accepted without
change and IL is likely that these
rules will be adopted as suggested.
What is contained In the report will
not be made public until II has been
submitted to the secretary, but ID Is
known that the superintendent has
recommended that the greater part
Of the appropriation be expended for
teachers salaries in the remote dis
tricts where there are not children
enough TO support a school otherwise.
None Of the money viii be used To
build or repair buildings. 1t has al
ways been a tribal custom that the
neighborhood where a school was 70
be established should first build a
school building. This will be followed
by the superintendent in his recon-
dations Where conditions are favor
able and the residents OF a neighbor-
hood will build a school house the
government will pay the teachers sal.
airy.
The average salary paid teachers In
the country is $40 per month and the
term eight months. The approprla-
tion OF 100000 would thus enable the
opening Of 800 new schools In Indian
Territory we're all the money expend
ed that way, and most OF IL viii be.
The people are very anxious about
this matter asit Is important TO them
nd letters are pouring la on the sup
erintendent already petitloning fol

In nearly every instance the people oi
the neighborhood are willing TO builc

the teacher.
The minor rules IN tie recommen
dation will not be made public except
al the pleasure Of the secretary.
