FATHERS GHOST HAUNTS SON.
Residents of Cumberland County, Ill.
Believe I'm the weird APP
partition.

In Cumberland county. Illinois,
about three miles from the village Of
Montrose. there Is an old log cabin
that the people believe to be haunted
The house was formerly the home OF
Thomas Elliott, who, before his death,
vowed to return in spirit and haunt
his son. who had offended him. Many
brave and honest men have spent the
night in the cabin, and have told weird
tales OF the happenings. Chairs and
other furniture would be moved about
strange noises would be heard, and all
of the men would flee In terror The
son Is no more able to explain the
antics of the ghost than are his neigh
bors. Neither can he escape It's visits
Once he moved to Nation, hoping to
avoid the unpleasant visits. but the
supposed ghost followed him. He
moved again, but his change of loca-
ton was no bar to his uneanny visitor.
Finally he gave up and went back to
his old home If he Is In any way
concerned with the ghostly apparitions
his magic is so artfnl that no one has
ever been able to detect It. One night
last summer party Of IS residents OF
that section went TO spend the night
In the house, but before morning all
had been frightened away.

The diamond IS in the oven"
The two policemen hurried to the
tailor shop. They made a dash for the
stove. Opening the door they saw the
sparkle Of the gem in the back part OF
the oven. The tailor was amazed and
then it occurred to him that he had
placed it there.
King Jones, a youth employed by the
tailor, had already been arrested on the
charge of having stolen the diamond.
Gotleib declared to the policemen that
the boy was innocent beyond a doubt
Il was about to wash my hands and put
the diamond in the oven for safe keep

Mrs Desmond Humphreys, the Lon
don novelist and keen satirist, who
writes under the name Of Rita" in
criticism of the English smart set,
says its amusements might make the
angels weep" adding:
in turn we have had the skirt dances
banjo parties, high kicking. cycling,
ping-pong, gambling at bridge and the
motor craze. We have dethroned the
two last mentioned, but there are other
records as harmful If less exciting.
What of the titled youth who turns
his castle into an imitation Drury
Lane on boxing night, whose highest
ambition is to display the family jew
els on his own person as prince Of
pantomime?
What of the illustrious earl who
roams from the old world to the new
with no higher ambition than to wear
the skirts of ballet girl and pass for
one?
What Of the effete boudoir boys,
who give smoking parties to each other
in order to display the latest thing in
satin corsets and lace-frilled tea coats?
THE amusements Of the smart world
are on a par with its other eccentrici-
ties, and for the providing of many
of these we have to thank our smart

ELECTRICITY SOURCE OF LIFE.
While Not Life Itself 1t Plays I'M
portant tart in the Production
of Phenomena.

There is good reason for believing
that the chemical as well as the phys
ical changes OF protoplasm are pro-
duced by alterations In electrical con-
ditions, and that the remarkable chem
ical powers of protoplasm shown in its
syntheses and decompositions are in
reality electrical, and resemble those
produced in electrolysis by the action
Of the current, states the World To-
Day. When, for example, an electric
charge is removed from an organic
compound it decomposes and new com
pounds arise. We can therefore say
that those substances will poison the
protoplasm which give up or part with
their charges easily. Substances which
give up their charges with especial ase
are mercury and silver, which are &C
cordingly very poisonous. We are even
able, from electrical data recently OBJ
tanned, to calculate approximately for
any salt how much will be necessary TO
kill a given protoplasm in a given time.
1t may fairly be said, then, that the
forces of ~protoplasm are electrical in
large part at least. and that they give
rise under these special conditions to
the phenomena which constitute life
This is of course quite different from
saying that electricity is life. Life is a
name we give to a group of phenomena;
while electricity plays a part in pio-
ducing these it is not itself the phe-

YOUNG SCHOOL-TEACHER.
IL Only Thirteen Years Old and Hat
Larruped Pupil Who Was
Twice His weight.

The youngest pedagogue in Missouri.
and perhaps in the United States, is
teaching a country school near Gaines
vile, in the Ozark mountains. He is
Glenn Harrison, aged 13 years, say the
Kansas City Journal. Glenn is the old.
est son of Guy 4. Harrison, a lawyer.
He completed the course of stuey OF
the Gainesville public schools in Marco.
1902. The same month he took the ex-
animation given candidates for thiro
grade teachers certificates in Ozark
county, making a good average and Sc
curing a certificate. He continued tC
study, and just after he became 13 years
old he took the examination for a Sec
ond grade certificate. This time his av.
erage grade was the highest made, being
96 per cent. Mr.. Harrison believed his
promising son was too young to teach
and refused to let him accept several
offers. But one day when his father was
absent attending court, Glenn took the
job of teacher of a rural district, the d.
rectors of which came and offered him
the place. He began work before his
father returned, and the latter, finding
him so ambitious. decided not to intex.
fere.
Glenn now has 20 pupils. The ma.
Jority are larger and older than he, but
he maintains a degree of discipline which
many older and more experienced teach
ers may well envy. "How are you get
ting along, GLENN" asked his mother
one day, when he came home at the end
OF a weeks work. Il had to whip sev-
eral of the boys" the youngster replied.
1t turned out that among others he had
larruped an obstreperous youth that
weighed $50 pounds. Glenn doesn't
weigh much more than half that.

PAY OF PROFESSORS.
Colleges Pay PrppOrtionntely Tess
Now Than They Did Fifty
Years Ago.

Whether it is, or is not, in accord with
the eternal fitness of things that college
professors should be kept poor, the fact
is that they are so, says the Syracuse
Post-Standard. One who had studied
the subject with some care was heard
to assert not long since that he failed to
see how a college teacher could marry
without skimping his laundry bills.
Hugo Munsterberg, of Harvard, dreams
of a day when American professors
shall be paid as German professors are,
$4,000 a year or Whereabouts. To most
people this seems not merely a dream,
but something very close to what is
vulgarly termed a ''pipedream," i. e., a
hallucination induced by some power
full narcotic.
The Harvard Graduates Magazine
goes so far as to declare that the college
professors of the present day are more
poorly paid than the college professors
of half a century ago when the president
of Harvard got so, 800 a year, and James
Russell Lowell 1000 for teaching
bellies lettres and bringing up the Cam
bridge youths in the paths of French
and Spanish languages and literature.
The best Harvard professors of to-day
receive IS, 900 a year at the elimination
of their career, but in purchasing power
this is not the equivalent of the 50, 200
which the best men were paid in 1856,
says the Harvard Graduates Magazine.
