The River Spree, which runs through
Berlin. has habit of almost continu
ously overlooking it's banks. AS a re-
suit the avenue called Spreewald is al
most always under water In summer
and covered with ice in winter. Much
CT the summer traffic is done on boats,
and all of the winter traffic is done on
skates and with sledges. The postman
delivers his mail either in boat or Oh
skates. the children skate to school
and the ladies go to market on the
water wagon or on the ice.

Scheme.

w. Caryl Ely, of Buffalo. the presi-
dent of the American Street Railway
association, was talking. during the
convention in Philadelphia, about mo-
tormen's and conductors adventures.
"A conductor came to me with a
smiling face the other day." he said.
He wanted to tell me what had hap
pened on, an incoming car.
at seems that a middle-aged woman
and her little son, a lad of six or seven
years, got on the car, and, as soon as
they were seated, the woman took a
half-dollar out of her pocket and hand
ed it to the youngster to pay the fars
with.
THE boy held the coin in his small,
fat hand, and examined it closely and
solemnly.
1.-The conductor appeared for the
fares. and the youngster gave him the
half-dollar with owlish solemnity.
1.-The money was pocketed and Az
cents in change was put in tie small

LAS soon as he got this change the
boy laughed and shouted gleefully:

Coming events cast their shadows be-
fore them. Columbia and the phoe-
phate fields of Maury county will not
be at the mercy of the Louisville and
Nashville Railway Company always.
The Dickey bird says that competing

very distant future. The Tennessee
Central, the Illinois Central, the South.
ern and the Interurbsn Company, are
all figuring, and likely as not will unite
their interests.

JOEY WAS PROMPT.

A public school teacher in Boston
got a surprising answer to one OF her
questions. She was trying TO give her
pupils au intelligent idea of volcano.
With red chalk she drew on the black
hoard fiery flames issuing from a
mountain top. When the drawing was
done she turned to the class before her
and said: "Can any of you tell me
what that looks llke?" One boy I'M
med lately held up his hand, and the
teqcher said: well. Joey, you may
tell us. " ut looks like bell, ma am. -"
replied Joey, with startling prompt

African Medicine Men.

Bishop Hanlon, of Uganda, in describ-
ing some of his experiences in cen-
trail Africa, said recently that though
many of the medicine men had been
converted, they could not be induced =
carry their confession so far as to
divulge their undoubted valuable reni-
edies for native disease. Some of tho
converted medicine women were not
so reticent but their revelations were
generally worthless.
