A mile down the track the express comes
round the bend. You watch it as 1t grows
rapidly larger, then in moment 1t thun-
ders by. The tower trembles and you gasp
in smoke. The signal operator glances at
his clock, then leans out and shakes two
fingers at the engineer, who mods and pulls
his throttle in a Bit He is two minutes
ahead of time.
AS the express vanishes in blue haze Of
steam and dust a heavy freight comes
numbering down the south-bound track, the
big black engine shaking and belching
smoke and c1nders. The operator turns and
tugs upon his levers. Out upon the track
there is a Changing among the switches,
and upon the signal-bridge the green and

drops off, and you can see him running up
the track, waving a spot of red. The engf-

his cab and hurries to the tower. The
operator shouts to him that there is a
freight wreck at Upland crossing, and after

Town without a Post Office.

While in Scotland last autumn I ar
rived at Maxwelltown, Kirkcudbright-
shire, and wanting stamp for picture
post card, 1 inquired for the post office,
but to my surprise l was informed the
town had neither post nor telegraph Of
fee.
Investigation revealed that the town
had a population gilmore than 5000 in
habitants.' being also ourgh, with its
provost town council and bailies. This
unique town has to depend on Dumfries

Oxford's Need.
From the Nation of London.

From the Nation OF London.
oxford wants money. Still more does she
want reorganization. She asks for the char
ity of the rich. What she really needs is the
interests of the nation. The first thing to do
is to appoint a competent commission to ex-
anime the whole question, to find out how
best the existing resources can be employed,
and most important of all, to discover how
Oxford can be made national university
in the sense of a university in which all
classes have pride and a share.

Chivalrous Americans.

From the London Lady's Pictorial.
Woman is too enthusiastically worshiped
at all times, her faults must never be dis
cussed, and in her must be found all the
noble qualities. all the intellect, the physical
attractiveness. the leadership that belong
to the ideal aristocracy. And surely one
cannot but admire our hard-headed, money
grabbing kin beyond the for this ideali-
cation of our sex. 1t has kept them emo
tional sympathetic, chivalrous. and this.
surely, must be counted unto them for good.

Our Indebtedness to Japan is augmented
by the remarkable chestnut that halls from

a nut tree it is quite ornamental, and

II Is radical and holds the most ad-

be had by the highest constructive
work through education of the people

sponsibilities Of citizenship. This is
the first duty in a republic, the build

combat the ignorant foes from within
and the dangerous sinister enemies
from without; 1t has got to meet these
poor deluded or corrupt people who
argue in season and out Of season
that building character through edu-
cation is not constructive, and insist
that the only constructive work is
accomplished through industrial train
ing and getting property. We have all
these things to meet and overcome;
but we can do the work il we keep

and Umpire Evans missing entirely too
many of the clever pitchers cross-fire
strikes, the Athletics had quite a strenuous
session OF II yesterday afternoon to win
rom the despised Nationals At the end
OF the NTH inning they had what is or
dinttriiy "a comfortably safe lead OF to l.

beaten. Thus. had the dangerous hard-hit-
ting Hickman swatted out d safety in the
eighth when he was third hand out and
with three Washington runners ON the
bass. the Athletics would have lost-thrown
away the game they had easily won in the
early innings The whole trouble was
caused by Plank and Evans. Plank was
most 10 blame. From the start he showed:
disposition to cut up monkey shines with
the Washington batsmen. II he held
them in contempt. This Washington aggre-
CATION IS not TO be trifed with when II
comes TO hitting. and Plank should be wise
10 that tact-probably he is now after his
experience in yesterdays seventh inning
