New York, April ia demand
for the release of Harry Thaw on
bail. pending retrial on the charge of
killing Stanford White, will be made
probably Monday. Every effort will
be made to secure his freedom until
he again faces a jury. Thaw's fam
lily are prepared to offer bond in any
sum to secure his release. District
Attorney jerome will vigorously OPP
pose his release.
Indications are that Thaw will
have to remain in jail until the case
is finally disposed of as Jerome is
determined In view of the standing
of the jury of seven to five for con-
viction to prosecute Thaw again. To-
day Thaw's attorneys vigorously deny
that they have been released. but It
is said Mrs. William Thaw has de-
termined on a change
1t is said Thaw's counsel decided to
proceed by going before the supreme
court justice of some other county
and swearing out writ of habeas
corpus on which to base a plea for
the release of the prisoner on bail.

Should Leave tho Seventh and
Eighth Grades Alone
Present Plan Subserves Two VaIu-
able Purposes and Children Like
Department Teachers.
WOULD SCATTER THE PUPILS.

Patrons and pupils Of the public
schools are up in arms against the
CONTEMPLATED action of the school
board in tearing down The good work
accomplished in a few months by
assembling all the seventh and eighth
grade pupils at the Washington build
ing, and 1t is possible that the idea
will be reconsidered. The complaint
comes from parents of children In
those grades, who have watched the
effect of the system on their children.
The result has been eminently salts
factory from two points of view
stimulating pupils to continue the
course through the High school and
drilling them in the preparatory
work.
The plan adopted by the present
administration is to assemble these
two grades at the Washington build
ing and instruct them by specialists.
There is a teacher in mathematics,
teacher in English, etc. In this way
the children receive the benefit of
the most thorough training possible
to give them. Scattered throughout
the ward buildings, 6ne teacher in
structs them in all branches, and the
work cannot possibly be so thorough.
Pupils entering on the adolescent
period require careful training. II
their interest flags, because the hard
worked teacher can not devote the
time to the studies necessary to
awaken their enthusiasm, they drop
out of school Under the instruction
of specialists their work is made in
teresting.
Another advantage is the incentive
to continue the course. In constant
and immediate touch with the High
school and practically part of it, these
pupils, instead Of feeling when they
have left the eighth grade that they
have finished the common schools are
gradually and unconsciously directed
into the first year of the
High school, no gap being left be
tween the grades and the High
school, The effect has been to more
than double the High school attend
ance in two years. and. persisting in
the same policy, 1t is believed the
High school will be doubled again in
the same length of time.
The only argument used by any
school trustee in favor of scattering
the seventh and eighth grades again
Is that the distance is too great from
some of the homes In order to put
the seventh and eighth grades in
some schools, like the Mckinley
building. grades will have to be Gre
ated there with handful of pupils
and extra teachers employed. 1t isl
claimed that the real purpose in scat.
tering the grades is to add two more
rooms to outlying buildings. which
VIII increase the compensation of the
principals $500 the month.

Foraker Speech.
Washington, April 13.--If Senator
Foraker expected to "get rise" out
of President Roosevelt with his Can

The president is as calm and un-

a thing as Foraker's opening gun in
the Ohio campaign. In truth, it was
learned through white house sources
that Mr.. Foraker's speech did not i'm

and instead of making any reply to 1t,
directly or indirectly, the president
will wait until the senator "really

Stewed fruit Of any description is far
more beneficial than the majority of
fresh ones, and the despised prunes
will agree with the woman who has
dyspepsia, as well as the one with a
strong, healthy stomach. They may be
eaten, too, as a rule, either before a
meal or as dessert with equally good
results for the complexion and health.
Stewed apples, pears or any Of the
smaller fruits are also a benefit, If not
too sweet. Taking figs in such quanti-
ties, especially before retiring, does not
agree with the average person, as the
habit Is supposed to, for the concen-
trated sweetness is really bad, If the
stomach is sour or there is surplus
Of acid In the blood. Then, too, the tiny
seeds In them are difficult for any but
strong stomachs to really digest and
assimilate.

African hInniOc.

The native food of the Malunda
country, in southern Africa, comprises
manioc, and that alone. 1t is plant
particularly adapted to wet, marshy
soil, says the author of "In Remotest
Barntseland." 1t takes two years to
arrive at maturity, and while growing
requires very little attention.
The root when full-grown is about
the size, and has very much the ap-
pearance of a German sausage, al
though at times it grows much larger.
One shrub has several roots, and the
extraction of two or three in no way
impairs the growth of the remainder.
When newly dug it tastes like a
chestnut, and the digestion of the pro-
verbal ostrich can alone assimilate it
raw; but when soaked in water for a
few days until partly decomposed,
,dried on the roofs of the huts and
stamped, it forms delightfully."- white
soft meal, far winter and purer than
the best flour. Then it is beaten into
thick paste and eaten with little
favoring, composed of a locust or a
caterpillar which the natives seek in
decayed trees.
Another way of eating this native
luxury Is by baking the roots, after
soaking them, and eating it as you
would banana. Taken as whole, it
forms the best all-the-year-round ma.
tive food; but l should advise all in
tending consumers to abstain from any
other food for three or four days be-
fore giving it prolonged trial.

Haunting Notes,

There was peculiar sound from the
direction of the woods as the member
Of the Birdlovers' Society sat in the
window of her friends country home
one summer afternoon.
Sae quickly took her small BIRD
Guioe" from her ever-present bag, and
rapidly turned the leaves. At last she
paused with a smile of satisfaction,
and listened, with her finger between
two leaves of the little book, till the
sound came again.
When 1t was repeated an expression
of doubt fitted across her features, but
still she was hopeful.
"You probably know many of the
bird notes, living so near the woods
and in such quiet spot" she said to
her friend. Can you tell me what
bird that is?"
THAT" said her friend, briefly, sis
our goat We shall have to move him
farther off,"
