Forgot the Chimney.

A short time ago public cer~ mony was to be carried out at Landshut, an important town il Lower Bavaria. A new public school was to be formally opened, and all Landshut quivered with pleasurable anticipation. Unfor. tunately the festivities had to be put off at the last moment. The school could not be opened. No scholar could take his seat upon the brand-new forms. The land was in the grip of winter, and the architect had forgotten to provide a single chimney throughout the building.

"SUICIDR CLUBs FLOURISHES.
Young Women of Boise, Idaho, HavS Organization ana Choose
 vietims by Let.

Boise. Idaho. has . fully organized suicide club. That 1t is ready for busi- ness and has already transacted con- siderable business is shown by the fact that at least three of its members have "shuffied or by the suicide route with in 8 period of as many months.
 The fact of the existence of the organ l1ation became known to the police in an investigation into the death of Grace Ashton, its latest victim. She died from morphine poisoning on . third attempt at suicide, both of her pfsvious attempts having been frustrated through season. able discovery by friends.
 Another young woman friend of Miss Ashton attempted suicide by taking poi son, but recovered. and it was through her that the existence of the club was made known. The club is regularly or ganized with . strong msmbsrship-All young womsn-and holds meetings at regular intervals.

SHARK AS A MESSENGER.
Carried Newspaper to Sydney outdis tancing Steamer Conveying Im-
 portant Item of News.

The story of the discovery of human bones and bangles in tho interior of the crocodile captured at Fort Johnson, Rhodesia, brings to mind another story which may appositely be recalled at the present juncture. Every body has heard of "Mrs. Maequar rie's chair," as they call the east ern point of Farm Cove, in Sydney harbor. There, says the St James, Gazette, it was that poor emigrant, in pre-cable days, killed and lowed ashore a shark, cut him up, and found a London newspa. per in the internals. In the paper was the announcement of the war between France and Germany. The shark had outdistanced the steamer by which the mail was coming, and here the discoverer had the fact to himself. He gave his information to a wealthy wool dealer, who bought all the sea- sons clip at 9d. per pound, ana sold at 3s. after the news of the war had arrived by the ordinary channel. He cleared, it is said, four millions sterling by the deal. The man who killed the shark and extracted the news of price-well, he received battered silk hat and a five shilling piece and unre. strained liberty as to the disposal of the shark.

SOCIETY'S NEW GAME.

''Trail" has taken society by storm. It is something new, something different.
 ''Trail' as the name implies is founded on a popular hunting sport, is played with fifty-three fine cards in four colors, repre- senting a fox to be chased and caught and four packs of hounds of thirteen each.
 "Trail' has a constantly re- curing interest for players as they prefer their playing from evening to evening in marked contrast to certain recent bois- terous games that bore the play CTS at the end of an hour.
 With the one pack six other splendid, new copyright games can be played. Two educational games and two games of fun, making it suitable for all mem- bers of family.
 ''Trall" can be had of dealers or sent postpaid, 75c gilt edge, 50c plain. Rules for the seven games free.

rAS WASHINCToN's STAFF.
Interesting History of Cane onos Owned by Father of His
 Country.

One of the things that passed through the Baltimore fire un. scathed was a cane once owned by George Washington and now the property of Maj. H. H. Raleigh. The cane reposed during the fire in the vault of the Merchants Credit and Collection Bureau at Liberty and German streets, says the New York Sun.
 "In Gen. Washington's will" 1" said Maj. Raleigh, 1.-two canes are mentioned. One was bequeathed to Robert Washington, of Chop tank, Va, who gave 1t to Robert Thompson, a relative.
 "Later it passed to Miss Kittie Thompson, a sister of Robert Thompson, and finally Peter Ora. son Washington of New York, who was assistant secretary of tho treasury under Guthrie, was the owner of the stick.
 "Peter Grason Washington be- queathed the cane to the oldest male heir of Gen. George Wash. ington who was living at the timo of his death. The late Mrs. Ra. leigh was a granddaughter of . Mrs. McPherson, of Washington, D. O., who before her marriage was a Miss Washington. After some contention it was proved that Mrs. Raleigh's brother, whose family name was Edwards, was the person entitled to the pos. session of the cane. I purchased the relic for my wife, and when she died it became my property"
 Although described as a cane, the relic is really staff. It Is of bamboo, about four and . half feet long and just such stick as Washington might have used in tramping over his broad acres in Mount Vernon. The Washington coat-of-arms adorns it's gold head anditis encircled with gold band, upon which is inscribed:
 "Willed to Robert Washington and by him to descend to Peter Grason Washington, of New York"
 As soon as the embers had cooled, Maj. Raleigh hastened to the vault and was much relieved 10 find after the cane had been re- moved from the chapois skin case that 1t had not been scorched.

Philippine po.ition. Not Wanted

phthppfne Positions NOt Wanted.
 Positions in the Philippines seem to go begging. Several months ago Col Edwards, chief of the insular bureau. called upon the civil service commits sion to certify candidates for 15o teachers positions paying from $2,ooo to 5000 per annum. There were few applicants, fewer took the examina- uon, and only 42 were found eligible for appointment Another examina- ton will. therefore, be held early in October. The insular bureau will not permit women to take the exsmina- ton for these positions. and the du- ties or pay of pedagogue do not seem to appeal to the young men of the country.

THE ITALIAN IMMIGRANT.
Gets an Immense Amount of Pleasure from Unexpected Sources-A
 ClothesReel Comedy.

The Italian immigrant has q happy gift of extracting pleasure from unexpected sources, so many commonplace objects of his new home are yet wonders to him. A woman who lives in a pretty su. burban residence, the long garden of which runs back to a small court upon which a row of tene- ment houses has just been erect. ed, discovered this recently when she found group of dark-eyed, dirty little boys dancing ecstat. ically on the platform of her clothes dryer.
 They were cheering on a daring comrade, who was clinging to the outer cross-bar of the reel, relates the Youths Companion. One of his mates had set it spinning, and the other boy was dizzily gyrat. ing aloft, mingling his excited squeals of joy with the creaks and groans of the overburdened ma. chine. Even as she looked there was an ominous snap, and the fly. ing cherub came suddenly to earth at her feet, where he sat softly rubbing himself and staring up at her, too dazed to cry. For the sake of their own youthful bones she thought it a case for severity, and began to scold the intruders as sternly as she knew how, conclud. ing rather helplessly with an nm. patient, "Whatever made you do such silly thing, anyhow? An. swer me, can't you?"
 "Bullafuna, signorinaw whim. pered the fallen one. And it was not until the remark was trans. lated by an Irish youngster, who was peeping through the fence, that she learned what the Italian lad meant.
 "Sure, he says it's bully fun," the Irish boy interpreted.
 1 Arguments and remonstrances quite failed to overcome the dan. gerous fascination of such de. ightful gymnastic apparatus. The woman had finally to take it down and resort to the ancient and in. convenient clothes-line instead. A far funnier case of perverted entertainment occurred lately in a Connecticut town in which the .drawbridge tender complained to the police that the Italian resi-. dents had fallen into the habit of riding on the draw as if it were a merry go round.
 Sometimes there's as many as 300 of them," he complained; ESQ many that the draw won't work properly, and it most kills me try. ing to turn the crank. When holler at them to get off, they just holler back, and don't budge. They aren't ugly, but they won't mind. They all come - mothers and babies, fellows and girls, and sometimes they bring a hurdy. gurds and dance while the bridge swings round. It's fun for them, but it's death to me. It's got to be stopped or I'll resign. The city didn't hire me to run a whirii gig si le show to circus"

In love with her. that she had repulsed him. and
that he had determined to have another interview
with her, and kill her If she again resented his
advances. Mayor Smith said this afternoon. I'VE
