Our University of the People-for that's
what high school is-would still be the
tourists hotel, wherein education might be
housed and from which it might tpavel.
Lecturers, worldtrotters, an occasional
scholarly actor, would visit the beautiful,
unusual nearby school and would address
the assembled students, affording that edu-
eational extension which is not found in
books. As for the visitors, they would
not fail TO herald Tacoma's high school
abroad. 1t would attract hundreds of new
citizens yearly, and thousands of dollars
if We must recur to "the American topic,

In last nights Times a competent archi.
tect stated that at an expenditure Of $780,
600 the Tourist hotel could be remodeled
into a high school, complete in every de-
tail, accommodating 1890 pupils, and not
only as beautiful but as suitable and safe
az if originally planned for that purpose.

his sweetheart when calling on her has been relegated to the parties in interest, the suitor, the girl and the parent, with occasional participation in the case by the family watch dog. The law, how ever, has never until now ventured to take a hand in the settlement of such nice issues of social relationship. It has, of course. recognized that a mans house is his castle, and 1t has consented from time to time to bear lightly upon the conduct of an irate parent toward one whom he regarded as a trespasser. But 1t has remained for a St. Louis judge to lay down a rule of conduct for all lovelorn callers. A certain young woman of the Mound City took umbrage at the manner in which her father behaved to- ward her wooer.; The young man had in some way, not detailed, incurred the enmity of the parent by no means un- common happening in the course of true love- and on one occasion at least he had been elected by force In a way to wound his physical, feelings and to inflict great mental suffering upon his lady love, Whereupon this aggressive young woman haled her father to court on a com plaint of assault. and the case was heard In all its fullness, and at the close the presiding justice ruled that '11 o'clock at night is long enough fo- any beau to stay with his sweetheart" Reports of the case thus far in hand are deplora- biy deficient.

OUTLOOK FOR FRUIT
PROT. MACINTOSH ExPECTl
 GOOD CROP.
Unless There is Much Wet Weather State Horijculturist Thinks Yield of Peach Trees
 Will Be Fine.

Tn the opinion of Prof. R. s. Mackin- tosh. State Horticulturist tat the Ala bama Polytechnic Institute. who was in Montgomery yesterday, the prospect for good fruit year in Alabama is very kcod, although weather and climatic con- ditions may considerably lessen the ex- pected yield.
 The peach crop, in the opinion of Pro- lessor Macintosh, is in no danger of cold. but a long spell of wet weather might have a destructive effect upon the Alabama crop.
 You see" said Professor Macintosh. we have had long dry spell. If. during this month, we should have a protracted spell of wet weather 1t would have a serious effect upon the peach crop. Com ing on the heels of the wet spell the young fruit on the trees would to a great extent, rot and drop off. A pro- tracted wet spell following this dry spell is the only danger I see at present to be feared by the peach crop.
 The peach trees throughout the State are loaded down with young fruit. In Professor Mackintosh's opinion the yield from every peach tree will be materially Increased if the owner will thin out the green fruit. removing perhaps one out of every three green peaches.
 Professor Mackintosh was in Montgon- cry en route from Auburn to AIbertvilIe where he will address an institute of farmers.
