commissioners and a high class secre-
tary will all find enough to keep them
busy every day in the year until the
present tumble of rates in Nebraska

1t Is passing strange that the Jews,
in view of their increasing dissatisfac-
ton with the public schools In this
country, have not taken the course
adopted by the Hungarian Jews imme-
diately upon the adoption Of universal
suffrage. The Hungarian reform per-
mits of race representation in the ma
tional legislature as distinguished
from territorial representation, and
the Jews promptly organized with a
view Of defending their economic and
political rights to the full extent Of
their influence as voters. There is no
such thing as formal race representa-
ton in this country, but practically
any interest or group Of people that
can concentrate its vote can exercise
a strong political influence The Jews
object to Christmas celebrations in the
schools, TO religious pictures on the
walls, and other practices in the
schools which they deem inimical to
their faith They might try the expe-
dient Of exacting the desired change as
the price of the Jewish vote.

This is story Of a shop girl who
saw George Washington, jr.," in Chi
cago from a seat in a stage box and
incidentally of some wild calculations
on the part of several people around
the theater. The night was stormy and
of the sort that is usually considered
light at the amusement places. The
advance sale had not been as heavy as
usual BY the time George M. Cohan
arrived and slipped into the box office
before getting ready for the perform
ance, the ticket rack was still well
filled.
"A thousand dollars to a nickel we
sell out" said Cohan. George Lederer,
with the understanding that he fav-
ored the Cohan end, took the long odds
and put up a 5-cent piece against
Cohan's order for 1000. Then the fun
commenced. The ticket sellers were
never more polite, the seats We're all
"the best in the house" and as the line
continued to reduce the pasteboards in
the rack. many buyers received tho
only ones left" Lederer watched the
line In the lobby, while Cohan stuck
10 the box office. Smaller and smaller
grew tho supply. and then the line
thlnned. Al last one ticket remained.
Suddenly cohan dashed out down this
street and into cigar store lie yelled
at q man seated in a corner; "Do YOU
remember touching me for twenty
pluuks three years aeef Well. don't
get ratified, but just slip In and buy
one box scat for tonight. It'il coat
two-tlfty. and I'll call the old matter
square. Can't go2 Wen. give IL t0
somebody" And back he went.
And that explains the mystery to the
shop Eirl who was urged to attend tho
George Washington, ir.," performance.

out by stranger on the street and
given theater ticket.
A shreWd trainer once remarked that
he had often seen a $4,000 horse en-
trusted to a groom whom the owner
of the horse would not have trusted
with a $40 bill, says the BOSTON Tran
script. Draft horses arc now very
costly, a good pair costing from $500
to $500, and even more. according to
their weight, beauty, and so forth and
yet we often see them driven by
man who is not fit to handle mule.
A school for driving has lately been
started in Paris, especially for the bon
eft of cab drivers, and in Chicago a
firm using some hundreds of horses
is giving this winter a series of lee
lures or instructions to its teamsters.
The truckmen and contractors of Bos-
ton would find it to their advantage to
adopt some similar plan. Even the
carelessness about blanketing horses
in the street is probably due as much
to ignorance and thoughtlessness as
to downright Indifference
Zone of the latest occupations for
women is found in the role of under
study to the wives Of the great Ameri-
can millionaires," says the Dundee Ad-
vertiser. "The 'understudy,' as she is
dummy although more cor
rect, is an inelegant termis employed
to try on dresses. She must have the
exact measurements of her patroness,
the same coloring, and, when possible,
the same type Of face. 1t is not siif-
ficient that an understudy should bear
close physical resemblance TO her
employer. She must have absorbed
her ideas and individuality, and pos
sess good taste and sound Judgment in
regard to wearing apparel. With such
qualifications she can command high
prices Of a certain young woman
who represented for dressmaking pur-
poses one of New Yorks Wealthiest
ladies it is related that for services
extending only over six weeks in try
ing on and experimenting the making
