struments VIII Be Used i'm Fall
Election.

SAN JOSE, March 22.-Fifteen
United States Standard voting ma
chimes, which were ordered by the
Board of Supervisors some months
ago, arrived to-day from the factory
at jamestown. n. Y. These will be
the first machines to be used in Cal
ifornia. Three of the voting machines
were unloaded at Santa Clara, where
they will be used at the town election
there on April 4. The other twelve
were moved into the courthouse to-
day. Frank c. Jordan, clerk of the
State Supreme Court and agent for the
machines in Northern and Central
California, was present experimenting
the work. Several of the machines
will be tried at the town election to
be held in Los Gatos in a few weeks.
The entire number will be used in the
fall election to be held in Santa Clara
County in November. Each of them
is incased in a metal case about the
size ofa piano box. One of the ma
chimes will be set up in the office of
the County Clerk for inspection and
that the voters may become acquaint
ed with 1t before the national election.

return to his palace.
Now his Majesty, who has since be-

has no confidence in the promises of
Japan, and his only hope lies in the
intimate victory of Russia, in whose
vast power he had placed all his re-

gave birth TO a baby girl, and after
that I had a very severe case Of pro-
truding piles, which a trained nurse
said was the worst case she ever saw,
and my doctor told me to get Pyra-

vas completely cured in three days.
I have not had piles Of any kind since.

KING MOURNS
At THE CRAVE
Splendor of Cambridge's
Funeral Equaled Only by
That of the 'IrOn Duke"

LONDON, March 22.-The Duke of
Cambridge was buried to-day after
funeral such as has been accorded to
no English soldier since the death of
the Duke of wellington. King Ed
ward, Queen Alexandra and nearly all
the members of the royal family, rep
resentatives of foreign monarchs,
majority of the nobility, the diplo-
matte corps and representative British
subjects of all walks in life attended
the impressive national service at
Westminster Abbey.
Thereafter the body of the "Old
Duke" as he was affectionately known
to the people, was taken to Kensal
Green Cemetery and buried beside that
of his wife. Thousands of troops
marched through and lined the streets
and dense crowds watched the spec
tacle. which in military magnificence
rivaled the funeral of Queen Victoria.
The King, wearing field marshars
uniform, and the Queen, in the deep
est mourning, drove from buckingham
Palace to the abbey shortly before IL
o'clock. The crowds uncovered in
silence and the troops reversed arms
on their arrival. The abbey was then
packed with diplomats, privy council
ors and army officers, all in gorgeous
uniforms.
EDWARD CHIEF MOURNER.
The King walked up the aisle, which
was lined by grenadiers, their BUSHES
bent low over the reversed arms, and
chief OF
the head of the coffin. The Prince of
Wales, the Duke of Connaught and the
other Princes stood behind his Ma
jesty.
Prince Albrecht of Prussia repre-
sented Emperor William, while from
the United States ambassador Choate
and the military attache, Major Bea-
con. were present. Among the prin-
cipal mourners were Admiral and Col
onel Fitzgeorge, the late Dukes son.
ON either side of the coffin stood five
field marshals - Wolseley, Haines,
Roberts, Norman and Good, who,
with a score of famous British gem
erals. acted as pallbearers. In the cor
ner of the abbey stood a number of
veterans who had fought with the
Duke of Cambridge in the Crimea.
Every branch of the army and the
volunteers was represented.
FAMOUS DIRGE SOUNDS.
The dean of Westminster read the
service, and dirge which had not been
played since the funeral of Queen
Mary ii. echoed through the abbey
The Norroy King of Arms (William
Henry Weldon) hoarsely proclaimed
the full titles of the dead man, eight
Grenadiers lifted the coffin and the
King walked behind it. followed by the
officers in crimson and gold uniforms.
In the bright sunshine the thou
sands of people outside the abbey
watched the coffin being placed on the
guncarriage. The old Dukes charger.

A Toast to Public school Teachers.

William McAndrewS tells in the
Worlds Work the following pointed
incident: A wealthy woman, who
affects patronage of education, drove
up one morning to the school of
which she is trustee and invited the
teachers to spend the evening at her
home. When the refreshments were
served that night, one little cake came
nto the hands of one of the guests
and proved to have acurved omission,
as if something had been bitten out.
Annabel, who is a musical accom-
pianist, whispered to the girls that this
was the second successive evening she
had attended a reception in this
house, once as a hired entertainer and
once as a guest. She suggested that
the things to eat were what were left
over by the society people" of the
night before. AT this revelation there
indignant looks, but the teachers in
violable safeguard, the sense Of
humor, came to the rescue, and the
holder of the tell-tale wafer lifted il
up and proposed, soto voce: "Here'S
health to us: the rag-tag and bobtail
of the learned professions; beloved by
children, tolerated by youth; forgot
ten by maturity; considered munich
pally,, financially and socially as gooc
enough for what is left"

Good Roads Versus Good Schools.

One of the most beneficial results
of road improvement is the facility
it gives to consolidate country
schools and thus concentrate our
children into central buildings, so
making graded schools possible in
our country districts. Where i'm
proved roads exist the children by
means of bicycles easily go long dis
tances to central ( schools. Thus
graded roads make possible graded
schools, the improved roads work.
ing in harmony with the state educa-
, tion law, giving the children of the
rural districts the same advantages
as those residing in cities. In one
year forty-four Connecticut towns
by means of improved roads were
enabled to give free transportation
to q large number Of their pupils,
says the New York Tribune. Eigh-
ty-four small schools were closed,
and $40 children rode to the central
schools. The cost of transportation
was about $4,000, but gross
amount of some $4,000 was saved,
leaving a net saving of some $1,000.
This saving was only a small part of
the benefit derived, for it resulted
in better attendance and better
schools. This close coordination
between improved roads and educa :
ton cannot be too strongly I'M
pressed upon the public attention.

to give at least one whole day to the
Educational Building. A whole week
or more may be most profitably
spent in this great structure. A thor

exhibits will be worth more to a
teacher or advanced pupil than short
course at the best of summer schools.
