Kindness Of the Poor.
From Leslie's Weekly.


The old adage that the poor are the best
friends of the poor was instanced in the
story of a chambermaid who Is a young
widow with two children to support. After
lingering sickness the younger Of the
children died, and the young mothers
bank account having been depleted from
defraying the expenses of the weeks OF
medicine and doctors" visits, she was
obliged to contract debt at the under
takers. After that she paid small
monthly installment until the bill was half
settled, when one day there came through
the mail a receipt for the remainder. The
receipt was accompanied by a badly writ
ten and blotted note from scrub-woman
in large uptown hotel. who knew of
the trouble, knew the family and the cir
cumstances, and in her note explained
that she had no family nor near relatives
and that she earned enough to support
herself, and that she wanted to use this
surplus money for the little mother who
needed all that she could make extra to
support the remaining child. AS scrub
women receive only fifty or seventy five
cents a day, one will readily appreciate
the spirit which moved one kind soul to
help another in distress.

Teachers in Place of Heelers.

FROM the new 1OTk Times.
One of our correspondents suggests that
the conduct of elections would be vastly i'm
proved if the public school teachers. male
and female after their kind. were sent to
the polling places to act as inspectors, in
stead of the present often ignorant, ineom-
petent, dishonest and generally unsatisfac-
tory ward workers who watch the regis
tration and balloting. The teachers, our
correspondent said are everything that the
election inspectors are not, and then they
could perform this new public service with
out expense to the people. for they are al
ready well paid and school never keeps on
election day! -sr
1t will be interesting to hear what the
teachers themselves. especially the women.
say to this pretty plan. The ward workers
will say nothing. so sure Will they be that
no serious attempt to carry It out will ever
be made. And yet, its political practical
bihty aside. the suggestion does have its al
Turing features. There is no doubt that the
work in the polling places could be done
by the teachers better than it is performed
by many of the men to whom 1t Is now
assigned. We haven't bit of hope-per-
haps no real desire-that just this change
be made but 1t does deserve discussion and
consideration by those 18th much leisure on

How Planets Are Weighed,

From Current Literature.
II ham weighing thirty pounds were
taken up to the moon and weighed there
the "pull''-the attractive force of the moon
upon the ham-would amount to only five
pounds. There would be another weight of
the ham for the planet Mars, and yet an
other on the sun. A ham weighing thirty
pounds at New York ought to we 9Th some
eight hundred pounds on the suns surface.
Hence the astronomer does not speak of
the weight of planet, because that would
depend upon the place where it was
weighed. But he speaks of the mass of
the planet, which means how much planet
there is, no matter where it might be
weighed.
At the same time we might, witho any
inexactness, agree that the weight of a
heavenly body should be fixed by Inc
weight 1T would have in New York. AS We
could not imagine a planet in New York
because 1t may be larger than the earth it
self, what we are to imagine is this: Sup
pose the planet could be divided into a
million million million equal parts and
one of these parts brought to New York
and weighed. We could easily find its
weight in pounds or tons. Then multiply
this by million million million. and we
shall have weight of the planet. THIS
would be equivalent to what astronomers
might take as the mass of the planet.

Trailing Skirts.

trail them again and longer than before.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

1t is understood that renewed attention
Is being given to the possibilities in addi-
tional boat service between this city and
Norfolk. The latest phase of the matter. ac-
cording TO the current talk is to have such
service under the control of steam rail-
road company and in what is heard Oh
this subject, the Pennsylvania company Is
usually credited with a plan for turning
over much of the freight business between
this CT. and New York to such a line
brought under it's control.
In connection with the freight business, 1t
Is. of course. intended to provide for pas
senger service not only between this city
and Norfolk. but to make such connections
with the line from the latter place as to
lessen the time between this city and New
York by an all water route.
1t Is not known whether or not those
having plans Of this sort in view intend to
secure the property of the Independent
Steamboat and Barge Company. which COM
prises the holdings at Motley Hall. the
boat River Queen and what is perhaps the
most important, lease on the wharf AZ
the foot of street. 1t was generally
understood that this property was SOLD
some weeks ago. but the names OF the pur-
chaser purchasers have not as yet been
made public. There is some idea that per-
haps negotiations either have been started
or will be with one or both OF the TWO
compa MES, namely, the Randall Company
or the Norfolk and Washington. In regard
to getting fOothold through Sucn sources.
There was nothing of much consequence
brought out at the meeting of the stock
exchange today, and the volume of the
trading was about the same as that OF
previous days. The condition Of easier
money seems to be coupled with slight
supply. or at least that is what Is said OF
the New York market when an attempt Is
made to account for the present state OF
affairs
The issue of $25 coo, 900 of three-year per
cent notes by the American Telephone and

caused by the development Of the business
