Mergers and Quakes.

The New York World says that the
property losses at San Francisco are
estimated roughly at S2O0.0O0.0OO
This is equivalent to half the water
in the capitalization of the New, York
traction merger.
In the process of replacing their
losses the people of San Francisco
must pay interest indefinitely upon
$500, O00. 900, just as the people of New
York must pay interest upon the $780,
600 900 of water in the traction CAPT
talization. The earthquake losses i'm
pose Il tax upon the industry of San
Francisco. just as the traction water
imposes a tax upon the industry of
New York
AS n financial burden upon the COM
munity one New York traction merger
is apparently equal to two San Fran
cisco earthquakes.

Mr.. Rainey has weighted some good
leverage in the democratic heave-to to
lift the republican lid from western

echo of Illinois's demands in the reel
prOcity convention that Mr.. Rainey's
voice in the house is least melodious to
Illinois machine republicans.
In the reciprocity convention both
the Illinois senators spoke soothingly
of tariff reform. but they and every

DAILY STORY
THE COED SYSTEM.

IOTfginal1
Miss Rose Harding was trying to
beat the three,R's into the,heads of the
ignorant in a small SchOOlhouse located
In, the midst of a. sheep raising country
in the far west. Miss Harding was
the daughter of those who had been
wealthy in the east. Her father had
died insoivent, but, fortunately for
Rose, he had given her AZ college educa
ton. The laws of supply and demand
work the same in EDUCATION as any
where else. Where there is the most
ignorance there is the greatest need
for teachers. AT any rate. Miss Hard
ing received an offer in Montana and
accepted it. She was surprised To find
her scholars of mixed ages, ranging
from ten tO,twenty six years old. But
she had no difficulty in arranging her
classes, for the oldest scholar knew no
more than the youngest But it was
hard work. Rose had taken prizes in
college and was fitted to instruct
young people of advanced scholastic at
tainments in the Scien ces.
One morning while Gshe was trying to
teach her scholars how to spell yacht"
and such other words in the English
language as are spelled farthest
from their sound Sheep herder rode
UP to the schOolhOuse door and asked
if any one had seenya flock of sheep
in the neighborhoodt Miss Harding
put the question to her scholars. and
all answered in the negative. While
this was being done !the sheep heNler
was RECALLING his eyes with the sight
of the refined and comely Miss Hard
ing. Such a sight. especially at that
time, was not usually to be had in,that
region, and the herder evidently did
not propose to let the opportunity slip.

There was a smile on the teachers
face. Although her new scholar was
evidently more unteachable than any
of her other scholars the lines of his
face We're entirely unlike theirs. There
was something homogeneous in his ig-
norance and his physiognomy.

three Il kin tell yOl how to larn him

right next time he kin kiss the purtyest

There was a shout Of approval of

INJURED. However, since her scholars
would have it so. assuming that "the

scholars she reluctantly consented.

vanced to take his reward of the teach

him back, telling him that she was not

the scholars and much pouting among
the girls, for the herder. since he could
not kiss the teacher, would kiss none
of them.
'YOu have struck vital principle in
pedagogy" said Miss Harding TO the
herder There was a twinkle in her
eye Perhaps 1t came from a sus-
piciOn that he knew how to spell the
word salt from the beginning. "Some
day you may he teacher yourself and
can Introduce your stimulant among

The herder looked at her scrutiniz-

meaning in her remark

This, especially the mention of the
name Larned Elton, had marked eff
feet upon the herder. Her words
when you learn to read were spoken
in satiricai tone. Even the thick
headed scholars got an idea that there
was some game going on between their
teacher and the herder. Dropping his
western way of speaking, the latter
said:
