PENNIES FOR COLLEGE.
100000 Workers Each Give a Penny
TO Ruskin College.


The British trade unions had not
in their origin any direct concern with
education, says the Fortnightly Re-
view. But it is fact of no ordinary
significance that some of the leading
unions should be taking very great in
terest in the higher education OF the
workman.
For the last three years some lOO,-
600 wCrkingmen, members OF the
Amalgamated Society of Engineers,
have made three levies of one penny
each to help or the work of Ruskln
college at Oxford This levy produces
over C 300 year, and by means OF it
six engineers are maintained for a
years course of study at the college.
Smaller but substantial sums have
been contributed to the same lnstltu-
ton by the London Society of Com
positors, by the Lanarkshire Miners,
County union, by the Amalgamatea
Association OF Beamers, Twisters and
Drawers, by the DerbTShire miners
and the Durham miners, while q large
number OF other societies appel

In a banking Office in New Orleans
is an aged bookkeeper who began his
connection with the business the day
it was established
AS the years went by, the proprie-
tor, who was extremely close"
amassed an enormous fortune. The
bookkeeper piled up but a small
amount of savings.
At last the twenty-fifth anniversary
Of The firm and of the bookkeeper's
service came along. He remembered
1t, but thought no one else would.
To his surprise, The proprietor spoke
of it at once.
Williams" he said, do you know
what day this is?''
Our twenty-ffth anniversary, sir.
'sIt is, indeed, Williams. And now
have thought At to commemorate
the event, and 1 have put IN this
envelope for you small gift to ex-
press my appreciation Of your faithful
service"
The bookkeeper, his hopes raised
high, took the envelope from bis en-
ployer and opened it. The token"
was a photograph Of the employer.
IT'S just like you!" murmured the
bookkeeper. IT'S just like you!"

Damascus Being Modernized.

Damascus, whose pedigree is the
longest of living cities. is losing its
character. An enterprising Belgian
company is cutting through it with an
electric tramway and is sprinkling
electric lights in its ancient streets.
What is more, the motive power for
these installations is derived from the
Harvesting of the river falls twenty
two miles off, so that no feature Of
the modern invasion is spared the
place whence the Jew of Tarsus es-
capped in basket over the wall. The
British acting consul reports that
three and a half miles of the tram
line are already being laid. Mean
while traffic on the HejaZ railway,
which some day may reach Mecca,
finds a convenient entrepot in the old
time emporium of the slow-moving

APPRECIATES HER SALUTE.

Society Woman VINO Delights Brake
men With Signs of Friendship.
A local society woman, says the
Philadelphia Record, who is in the
habit of taking long drives and auta
trips into the country surprised her
friends the other day by coquettishly
waving her handkerchief at a brake
man on a passing freight train which
had held up their machine at way
side crossing. When her companions
demanded an explanation of her queer
act, she said: 81 suppose it's foolish
of me, but it seems as if those poor
fellows had awfully lonesome work,
and as if their bravery were not half
appreciated. There they stand or sit
on top of those old cars for hours at
a time, with never a soul to talk to,
with no one to notice if they should
fall off even. have lot of adm1ra-
ton for them. Every once in while
one gets killed and nobody gives the
tragedy a second thought. On pas
senger train a brakeman can hobnob
with the men in the smoker, indulge
in conversation with helpless old Ia
dies and little children and get into
touch with his kind, but on those
freight trains a brakeman must have
a dreary time of it. They are always
ready to wave back at me and they
always act as if they appreciated my
salute. Sometimes they yell few
words of greeting, as if they were
glad to pass the time of day with
some one"

WALK ON RED-HOT STONES.
In Tahiti Natives Tread Fearlessly
Along a Fiery Path.

In Tahiti Natives Tread FearIessly
Along Fiery Path.
In Tahiti men still believe in magic.
At certain celebrations they make a
bed of red-hot stones. A necromancer
raises his bamboo wand, moves it
slowly from side to side, mounts slow
ly to the top of the causeway, stands
for an instant with arms raised aloft,
lips moving rapidly, then deliberately
and carefully steps from stone to
stone A second time he crosses the
path of red-hot fire, followed by his
four disciples.
Through an interpreter all are
urged to have faith and tread the
necromancer's fiery path. A young
Frenchman steps forward, defiantly
twirling his little mustache, an
American tourist follows; then one OF
two natives whose daring is applaud
ed by their fellows.
Once more the necromancer steps
up the incline Of the causeway, always
waving his wand. With set lips the
novices follow, shrinking fearfully at
first, then proceeding with confidence,
shading face and eyes from the fierce
radiation of the heated stones. Ac-
complishing the transit, they show
that their shoe soles were not even
singed, but they offer no explanation
further than Don't ask me how 1t Is
done; can't understand it,"
A bucket of water is brought, one
of the red-hot stones is dropped into It
aud up spcuts a cloud Of steam. The
necromancer walks through the crowd
offering himself FOR inspection and for
touch. Like the three children OF
holy writ, upon his body IRE has had
no power, nor is hair Of his head
singed, nor has the smell Of ire passed
on him,"-World To-Day Magasine.l

MILITARY VALUE OF COLOR.
OIive-Drab and Khaki Have Taken
Place of the Blue.

OIive-Drab and Khaki Have Taken
Place of the Blue.
At no time in the history of war has
the question of color received so much
attention from military men as with
In the last ten years. That the value
of approximate invisibility has been
fully recognized by our powers that be
is fully shown in the passing of the
blue uniform and the advent OF the
olive-drab and khaki Accommodations OF
clear clear atmosphere are blue, It is
pointed out, and the brighter the sun
and the greater the distance of the
object the bluer it appears; also the
blueness is in proportion to the densi-
ty of the object From 1900 to about
1000 yards khaki in close formation
gives exactly the effect OF the blue
uniform because of the banked-up at
mosphere before it. Moreover, given
a distance greater than 1000 yards
and clear Day and it is all one
whether massed troops wear green,
blue, oiive-drab, yellow, khaki or
black Red and white are about the
only colors to remain unconquered by
the atmosphere against green or
earth background, and when against
the sky red still flaunts, but white
goes out like the blowing out Of a
candle. This is probably the reason
for the cavalry guidon having the red
on top and for signal survey stations
using red and white flags against
ground background and red and green
against the sky.

ORIGIN OF POSTAGE STAMPS.
Secret Sign on an Envelope the Cause
of Present system,

Secret Sign on an Envelope the Cause
of Present System.
Quite recently there has been more
the postage stamp.
Perhaps the most authentic story is
that which comes from the postoffice
department at Washington.
1t appears that about sixty-five
years ago Rowland Hill was travelling
through one of the northern districts
of England and for a time was so
journing in an inn where the postman
came with a letter for young miss,
who turned it over and over in her
hand, and after examining the envel-
ope minutely, inquired the price OF
the postage, which was a shilling. She
sighed sadly and returned the letter
to the postman, saying that it was
from her brother, but that she had no
money.
Mr.. Hill was an onlooker and was
touched with pity. He paid the post
age and his action seemed to <mbar-
rass the girl. When the pOstman
had gone she told Mr.. Hill that some
signs marked on the envelope con-
veyed to her all she wanted to know
and that as q fact there was no writ
ing inclosed. In excavation she said
that she and her brother had con-
trived a code system OF communities
ton, as neither of them were able to
pay post charges.
Mr.. Hill thought Of the results Of .
system, which made such frauds pos
sible. Before another day he had
planned a postal system upon the
present basis.

WILL LIVE AMONG LEPERS.

Missic1cry in Whose Arms Father
: r1ien Died in Hawaii.
We are erecting statues to Pere
Marquette and are putting up bronze
tablets to the Jesuits who came first
among our Indians, but few of us have
even heard of the Catholic priest,
Father Conrardi, who leaves in a
short time to found leper colony and
hospital near Canton, in China.
This man served as missionary
,riest in India, says Worlds Work,
then in the early 70's he came to Ore
gon and worked for fourteen years
among the Omatala Indians and the
scattered Roman Catholic whites.
Then hearing of the terrible condi-
lions in the Hawaiian islands he jour-
neyed out there and lived among the
outcasts on Molakai
To this hell Father Conrardi went
knowingly and in it he stayed eight
years, staying on and even after Dam
len had died in his arms. These two
living in huts on that shelf above the
ocean, kept to their horrid task OF
dressing rotten human limbs and
washing vile sores. They labored in
the fields-a grateful task from the
laZaretto-and baked bread for the
sick. Every hour and every moment,
such was the insanitary way Of life,
they were in peril of leprosy.
The work was entirely among peo-
pie who were without hope = incura-
bles to whom it would have been
kindness to have passed loaded gun
that they might end it there and then
yet when Conrardi left he and
Damien had instituted hospital and
so inspired a body of nuns that there
are women nurses now on the island;
women to bring to the lepers delights
Of cleanliness and ease.

BARACAS MARCH TO
VICTORY IN DEBATE
DISCUSSES MUNRoE DOCTRINE
BEFORE LARGE AUDIENCE
Appreciative Audience Hears Argu-
ments in First M. E. Church, After
Which the Winners Adjourned to
Enjoy Spread

Mid the waving of flags and banners
and the singing of songs. the "Baraca
class of the First NJ. e. church de-
feated the I'VE Boys" class of the
same church in debate on Thursday
evening.
The debate took place before large
and appreciative audience of from ESQ
to $50 people.
The subject for debate was: RE
solved, That the Monroe Doctrine
Should Be Upheld. Even If 1t Re-
quire War to Do So.''
AIessrs. Oliver Clark. Raphael Blakes-
ley and Byron Hanna composed the
winning team Of the "Baracas" and
upheld the affirmative side of the argu-
ment. Messrs. Poole. Allen and Buren,
represented the I'VE Boys" and up
held the negative side of the debate.
The judges were Judge Curtis Will
bur. Will Harris and NJ. st. John.
Each speaker was allowed twelve
minutes. with rebuttal OF three min
utes for the Affirmative. The affirma-
tive from the start built UP strong
and invincible argument, while the
negative. on the other hand. was weak
and did not have its side OF the ques-
tion IN hand at any stage Of the de-
bate.
The star speech of the evening was
awarded to Byron Hanna.
The victorious "Baracas" afterward
adjourned to a restaurant, where their
success was celebrated in a fitting
manner

CONTEST IN THE NINTH WARD
M. T. Collins VIII Likely Lead the
Fight Against 5Ian-
Nhard

1t Is now generally understood that
M. t. Collins will receive the Demo-
cratic nomination for councilman in
the Ninth ward, and during the past
week the non-partisan party has given
1t out that Mr.. Collins is likely to be
their standard bearer also, in this
same ward. This announcement has
caused furry in the Ninth ward ma
chine. Republican clubs have been or
ganized in every precinct in the ward
during the past week and the only
thing discussed so far was the council
fight, and 1t was also agreed that Col
Inns was a much more popular man
than was at first anticipated. Conse-
quently word was passed to all the
clubs that to save the Ninth ward to
the Republican party all other aspir-
ing candidates must step aside and
their old champion, 70. H. Blanchard,
must make the race, as 1t is now con-
sidered he is the only man in the ward
who can beat Collins. Should the fight
simmer down to those two local politl-
cal giants 1t would be an interesting
contest. The principal issue in the
campaign would be plain to be seem
corporation on one side, anti4corpora-
tion on the other. There Is no doubt
that the Southern Pacific railroad and
it's allied corporations, including the
Royal Arch, will put in their sacks
against Collins. Nevertheless, the
Democrats say they have no fear OF
the outcome and that their tall son
of Anak" will give the Ninth ward Re-
publican machine and their champion
the fight of their lives.
