When Mrs. Charles Shera OF oil
North Thirteenth street returned
home from church Sunday night. and
heard a noise in the upstairs room
she did not know that it was a burg
lar prowling around. neither was she
aware a few minutes later, that as
she went into an adjoining room TO
see whether her husband was at home.
this very same burglar calmly dcs-
ccnded the stair case and made his
getaway through the door through
which she hnd entered the house. In
fact Mrs. Shera did not know that the
home had been burglarized until Mon
day when she missed a S90 diamond
ring. The police say they have very
good clue To the identity of the man
who committed the burglary.
II all happened shortly after nine
O'Clock. The thief entered the home
a few minutes before nine, indications
lead the police TO believe. He ran
sacked the lower rooms and was en-
gagged in this work in the upstairs
portion of the house, the police think.

he wished to have a complete disguise

hoped To foil Mrs. Shera should she
return home early and catch sight OF

was her husband making his exploring
expeditions over the house. Police

German Plan to Suppress French in
Alsace Public Schools.

PARIS. July 23.-The French newspapers
greatly incensed over the decision of
the German authorities to suppress the
teaching OF French in the common schools
of the lost provinces" Asace and Lor-
raine. The loss OF these provinces, the
statue OF which on the Place de La Con-
corde is forever kept freshly piled with
flowers. is the sorest point in connection
with the settlement of the FrancoPrus-
sian war. and the decision to German
ize" them by suppressing what il the
native tongue for the vast majority OF the
population is gall and wormwood for the
emotional French people.
Statistics are cited to prove that along
the frontier four-ffths of the children are
born of French parents and speak nothing
but French.

That Made Milwaukee Fal

had been telling her that it was improper
for her to remain alone in the house With
man and her sense of propriety would not
allow her to stay. Mr.. Walker solved the
problem by making her his wife. And a
good wife she was to him until he died.
He left her all his money and 1t was
quite large fortune. for those days and
for this place. But Aunt Abby did not
spend a cent Of it. She was willing to
occupy the house, but continued to earn her
living by doing odd chores in families
around town. washing and ironing, baking
and helping clean house from 1857 to 1891,
letting the money accumulate. Before her
death she consulted Mr.. Joseph B. Walker
and some other gentlemen in whom she had
confidence as to the disposition Of the funds.
They devised several different plans and
laid them before her and that which pro-
vided for a permanent lecture course
pleased her most. SO. after the payment Of
several generous legacies, the residue of
the estate went into fund N charge Of
self-perpetuating board of trustees to pro-
vide three courses Of lectures free Of cost
for the people OF Concord as long as the
human tongue can talk.
Two Of the courses are popular and one
1s educational and they are given In the
town hall. which seats about 1900 people.
AS everybody wants to attend. the tickets
are distributed by lot. Applications are
filed early in the fall in response to a news
paper announcement. The committee write
the names of applicants upon slips of card
them out one by one. The person whose
name is first drawn gets seats number l
and 2, and the next gets seats and 4,
and so on until every seat is assigned.
That transaction is naturally attended with
great interest People who draw seats can
transfer them to friends # they desire to
do so, but the lectures are free.
Among the large assembly of Walkers in
the old burying ground Aunt Abby lies,
and the epitaph upon the headstone reads
as follows:
Abigail B. Walker,
Widow of Timothy WaL.er,
Founder of the
Timothy and Abigail ID. Walker
Free Lecture Course.
And a Liberal Patron of the
N. H Asylum for the Insane,
The Rolfe and Rumford Home,
And Other Public Institutions of Concord.
Born September 2, --I6,

Beside her grave is that of her husband
who is described as Timothy Walker son
of Timothy Walker. and grandson of the
First Minister of Concord Died September

years Herr Won Kardorfr took a prominent

added to the number. and DR.. Colt was
their only instructor. In 1860 additional
quarters having been provided. the number
was increased to forty-three , six mas
ters were employed. From that date, as
new buildings have been added the rolls
have been gradually heightened until the
present limit was reached. The records
show that at no time in its history has the
school opened a year with a single
vacancy, and as many applications are re-
jected as accepted In order to secure ad-
mission to ST. Paurs, applications have to
be filed two or three years in advance, and
there are now applications on the files of
the registrar which were made ten years
ago by members of the alumni who want
their sons to follow them. The course is
six years and the tuition Is 5000 year.
DR.. Colt was a great man and stamped
the impress of his character upon thou
sands Of boys during the thirty-nine years
that he was rector-from 1855 to 1895.
After his death his brother. who had been
with him almost from the start, succeeded
him and remained for eleven years. when
DR.. Henry FERGUSON. the present rector,
took charge.
The school is distinctively religious and is
under the care of the Protestant Episcopal
Church.

Abby was the relict Of Timothy Walker. a

The Snowshoe Club.

The Snowshoe Club is an organization Of
about twenty-five amable and hospitable
gentlemen Of Concord who entertain each
other. and sometimes "angels unawares," in
a cabin on the top of Rattlesnake Hill.
From their balcony they look over vast
expanse of the commonwealth of New
Hampshire and can see a great deal of
beauty near and far. The contemplation of
this prospect inclines their hearts to broth
erly love and righteousness, and therefore
the TWENTY-FIVE members of this club are
the most kindly and well-disposed portion
of the community. Lake Pennacook lies
beneath them. named after the tribe of
Indians that Inhabited this Eden before the
Boston and Maine railroad came in. Mount
Kearsarge arises behind the lake, and from
it's sides were cut the timbers of the ia
nous ship of that name which was built
nearby at Portsmouth. The keel was laid
June H. 1861; the work was finished Feb
ruary 5, 1882 and the ship was launched
October 5 of the same year. 1t cost just
$40 ton. The Alabama was built of Brit
ish oak. and in the battle was shot all to
pieces. while only one shot stuck in the
Kearsarge, and that was in her stern-post.
Rattlesnake hill is one solid mass of gran
lite which the quarrymen are taking away
quite rapidly. From there came the ma
ter.al for the Congressional Library at
Washington. for the Equitable building in
NewsYork, the Boston post office and sew
eral other famous buildings.
The Snowshoe Club has twenty-five cooks
and twenty-five walters, one cook and one
waiter for every member, and they take
turns in serving in that capacity. AS one
star differeth from another star in glory,
so do the members Of the cub differ in
tnelr ability to cook, but Il Is rule that
each one of them shall prepare a dinner
with his own hands once year and the
other members are required to eat it. The
penalty of refusal is to wash the dishes
AS the ladies of Concord are not admitted
to the Snowshoe Club they have one of
their own about six miles from the city in
delightful location with one big room,
forty by twenty-five feet in size, and a
kitchen adjoining. Their rules are some
what different from those Of the mems
waiting maids from the city and often have
dinners and lunches s'fved by caterer.
No member of the Woten's Country Club
thinks of going flto the kitchen or
setting the table. They regard that as en-
tirelY within the sphere of men.

Where kicked across by the oppon
ents and then touched down by q
player It is a touchdown and has no
value.
The phrase "oI side' means that a
player or some part Of him is beyond
an imaginary line running through
the center of the ball befre it is put
in play or that he is in front of the
man who has the pail in his posses
sion for his side after the ball is in

Holding is the grasping OF an op-
posing player with hands, arms or
legs when such opponent has not the
ball.
Interference is the interposition Of
a players body between the man or
his side and an opponent who would
tackle him.
A foul is an action forbidden by
the rules, and included are on side
plays, holding, unfair interference and
unfair tackling, all Of which are pena.-
lied by the officers under various pen
alties according to the varying fla
grancy Of the offense.

understand what is going on at any
OF the games here and will shortly
come to appreciate the fine points OF
the game, which Is much more scien-
tific than baseball and is in reality {
