would be wise. at this time to bond the
district for new central school build

while there was apparent unaminity in
favor of a school house there was a diff

Bribery Rampant at the Close Of the
Eighteenth Century.

Votes have been purchased shame
lessly and on huge scale In British
elections. An arrangement was once
made in the borough of Wendover by
which two candidates were to be
elected after a distribution Of $4,000
($30,000) among the voters. The ac-
count reads This being settled
gentleman was employed to go down,
when he was met according to pre-
vious appointment by the electors
about mile from the town. The elec-
tors asked the stranger where he
came from. He replied, From the
moon They then asked, What news
from the noon? He answered that
he had brought from hence $4,000
to be distributed among them. The
electors, being thus satisfied with the
golden news from the moon, chose the
candidates and received their re-
ward"
At Hindon a man dressed fantastic
ally as the dancing Punch called at
the house of the voters and left be-
hind him sums of five to ten guineas
($25 to $500. Another device was to
collect the citizens at the inns and
hand them their reward through a
hole in the door. For these offenses
the house of commons passed reso-
luton that Hindon should be disfran-
chised, but so lax were the morals Of
the time-the close of the eighteenth
century-that the resolution was
never acted upon.
Again in 1859 the MAN In the
Moon" turned up in Wakefield. He
went about openly distributing money
and did not appear to be in the least
ashamed of his occupation. At Dub
lin, in 1868, hole in the wall served
the purpose of distributing center
for the a5' ($25) notes. while at
Shaftesbury an alderman paid through
a hole in the door of his Office sum
Of 20 guineas ($100) to each elector.

WRESTLING IN SCOTLAND.
Athletic Sport on the Famous Field at
Grasmere.

The sports field at Grasmere lies at
the foot of a characteristic ridge Of
fells, very narrow at the top and as
steep nearly as the side OF a house.
AS you sit In the grandstand this
ridge rises up in front of you.
On the bare, precipitous slopes OF 1t
the guides race Is run. On the ver-
dant lawn on which the grandstand
is placed the wrestling matches are
held and those spectators who are not
In the stand make ring around the
lawn. There are coaches and car
riages, too, all around, on which peo-
ple sit and watch and have picnic
luncheons, and 1t all looks rather like
Lords cricket ground reduced In size.
In Cumberland wrestling the fall Is
won directly a man Is thrown to the
ground. There Is no need to pin the
shoulders down as in Graeco-Roman
wrestling. Here at Grasmere all Is
ended Just when the Graeco-Roman
catch as-catch-cann would be get
ting to the serious work. Were 1t not
so the Grasmere sports would last all
the year round. AS 1t was. several
matches went on at the same time.
Many of the men had their tights
embroidered with wonderful flowers
or designs in silk or wool--the work
of their women folk, who were now
straining to get glimpse OF how the
charm worked from the swaying
ranks of the people around the
ground.
Boys wrestled; men with white
hair, who had gained In experience
what they had lost in elasticity, wres-
tied. The boys seemed to be young

IL not surpassed, by the achievement
of little Mary Edick, age IL, grand
daughter of United States Commits
sioner Shields, in saving the life Of
her playmate. Tommy Williams, age
ten. 1t was in the Hudson river, off
Grand View. Tommy had swan out
into the river long distance-much
longer than he had ever attempted
before = and then discovered, out
there all alone, that his strength was
falling That discovery brought panic,
and, with a scream for help, he sank
At first Mary, watching his pranks
from the shore, thought he was still
playing. When he rose to the sur
face only the back of his head showed,
and again he disappeared. Instantly
Mary dived from the pier and swan
with all her strength toward the rip
pies. AS Tommy came up she seized
him by the hair. Holding him at
arms length and swimming, sailor
fashion," with the other hand, she
made for the shore, crying for help.
Mr.. Edick heard her calls and helped

The summers deeds Of the girl hero
include the capture of many burglars.
The record of her accomplishments In
this line have made many a pretty
story. The World Magazine has told
how Mrs. Esther Evans, the plucky
little janitress at the apartment house,
No. 1913 West. Twenty-ninth street, has
captured since June 20 seven burglars
and turned them over to the police.
Seized and Held Burglar.

my" Her calls brought aid. and the
burglar was arrested.
But the interest always comes back
most strongly to the woman who
rushes voluntarily into danger to save
the lives of others. Near Cedar Grove,
N. j., horse attached to light run
about became frightened at passing
auto and dashed at high speed along
the turnpike. In the carriage were
two girls. and In her fright the one
who was driving dropped the reins.
The horse was on dead run when 1t
approached a field in which Miss
Pauline Weiss was picking daisies.
The two girls were clinging to each
other and crying out In terror. Miss
Weiss dropped her apron. half filed
with flowers, vaulted over the four
rail fence and ran to the middle Of
the road. She seized the bride of the
horse as 1t got abreast Of her, and
held on, swaying back and forth and
saving on the bit, for more than q
hundred yards.
Quite similar to this was the dar-
ing act of Mrs. George Corwin, Of
Stamford. She seized the bit OF a
frantic horse dashing toward crowd
In the main street Of Bridgeport, and
by her courage and presence of mind
undoubtedly saved the lives or limbs
of more than one person.
Miss Annie Barner hesitated not a
moment to risk horrible death un-
der the wheels Of Pennsylvania rail-
way train at Elizabeth. N. j., to save
the life Of two-year-old Edward Cope
land, who had wandered to the track.
The speeding locomotive was almost

children. But meanwhile little Han
nah had worked her way out Of the
burning fiat, little three-year-old Joe
cllnging to her skirts and the one
year-old baby in her arms, covered
with an old shawl to shut out the
sight and suffocating smell of the
smoke. Willing hands were ready at
the last flight of stairs to help the lit
tie heroine and her charges.

grel dog which had been In the family
for half dozen years suddenly went
mad. 1t pursued Annals five-year-old
brother Harry into the room in which
she was sitting and had sprung upon
the boy to bite him. Instantly the
girl rushed to the child's assistance,
drew the dog to herself, and fierce
fight for life ensued. The girl got
her hands around the beasts neck and
clung and choked him with a desper-
ate grip. She held on until she had
strangled him to death.
The summer has produced many
little girl heroes. The prompt and
brave action of 11-year-old Fannie
Haskowitz, of No. 81 Hopkins street,
Brooklyn, saved the life Of her four
year-old sister Julia. The children
were crossing the street, when a Sum-
ner avenue care bore down on them.
Fannie had crossed safely, when she
saw Julia knocked down by the fender
of the car and carried beneath 1t to
the swiftly moving wheels. Fannie
was instantly down at her little Sis
ter's side, dragging her forward and
out until she had pulled her away
from the wheels. Julia tainted, and
when the ambulance came 1t was
found that one Of her legs was broken
but her little-mother sister had saved
her life.
A still younger heroine is Madeline
Spinello, of New Haven, who rescued
a little boy playmate who was drown

+ And think of Rena Etson, five years
old, who walked into fire In the

sister from the flames. The brave

ton not often found In older persons
