Magistrate Finds That College Boys
Are Only Incants in Law.
A New York police justice has dis
covered a sure method of dealing with
big schoolboys and young college fel-
lows who create trouble in public
places and then plead "fun" and the
baby act when apprehended. He takes
them at their word and treats them
as babies.
A lot of young fellows attending the
City college engaged in a series OF an
noying stunts on subway platform
When arrested they took the usual
stand of youthful innocence, with the
usual plea.
"All right" said Justice Olmsted.
"If you are young children who know
no better I will treat you as such. You
are remanded in care of the Children's
society,"
There was some lively kicking from
the husky young fellows, but an Off
Ger took them to the rooms of the So
ciety, where for several days they
were penned in with real children and
fed on childish diet. When again
brought into court they will be fined
So each At the college they are now
known as 1.-The baby squad"

The ghost was originally one of the temple dancing girls famous all over the town for her striking beauty The temple authorities raised objec- tions to her bathing there and ordered her to creep out quietly at II every night and bathe in the river at Tenuur. where no one would see her This she did for some time, but another temple girl gave away the secret. with the re- suit that the next night when bathing she heard the tramp Of many feet and on rushing out to sec what was the matter was accidentally knocked into the river and drowned by the crowd of men rushing to the riverside to see her Madras QndiN Mail.

The Two "Dark Days."

There are two dark days" mentioh' ed in the annals of New England. The first occurred on Oct 21, 1716 when it suddenly became so dark soon after noon that the people were forced to use artificial lights 10 do their ordinary work. This strange condition of the atmosphere lasted about three and q half hours. Again. on May 10, 17S0, there was remarkable darkenng of the atmosphere. but the phenomenon did not come on so suddenly as that upon the earlier date. The darkness in this latter instance began between 10 and II o'clock or the morning of the day named and lasted throughout the day. The darkness extended from the northeastern part of New England westward as far as Albany and south ward to Pennsylvania. The most in tense and prolonged darkness, how ever, was confined to Massachusetts. more especially to the seaboard. It is said to, have come from the southwest, but there is no mention of 1t made in the history of Ohio or the Virginias. The exact cause still remains one of the unexplained mysteries.

Formntion of Naturnl nrldre.


 It is commonly believed that natural bridges of which the natural bridge of Virginia is the best known American example. are due to the failing in of cavern roofs leaving only part to span the stream which the destruction of the cavern has brought to the sur face. By study of the North Adams natural bridge Professor Cleland has been led to the conclusion that in this case at least the origin is quite differ ent In this case the bridge seems to be due to the solution of the lime stone along a sSeint plane na"r the for mer course of es1dson broon. At first only q small amount of water seeped along the joint plane, but after awhile 1t made channel large enough to di- vert the entire brook under the sur. face. giving rise to the bridge Walcott had previously offered similar theory for the natural bridge of Virginia. and Cleland concludes that. while the fall. | Ing i'll of cavern roofs may occasional | iy give rise to natural bridges. the :. most common cause for such bridges In marble, limestone, sandstone and lava is that outlined above-St Louis Post-Dispatch

ARMY UNIFORMS.
omccrs Must spend sI 1000 to start
 and Then Keep It ID.

and Then Keep tt ID.
 How would you like to be forced to invest S100O for clothing whether you had the money or wanted to or not?
 This is what an army officer holding a commission in Uncle Sams service has to do much oftener than he likes. If he does not happen to have the ready cash (and many of them do not have to he is forced by army regulations to buy enough clothes on credit to tog out fifteen men.
 It is an army secret. but some of the lieutenants, fresh from West Point two years ago have only recently fin iShcd paying for their first S1,000 worth of clothes Their salvation is that their credit is good with the tailors who ca ter to the army officers trade. All the uniforms are tailor made. It is nothing out of the ordinary for an army officer to be paying for his clothes on the in stallmcnt plan. That is one part of the army officers life that will probably not appear romantic--especially to the women
 But the rigid requirements make 1t necessary for the officer to spend a large sum of money for his clothes or suffer penalty for not having them.
 The pay of second lieutenant is $1,O40 a year. One of the first things he has to do on receiving his commits sion is to fit himself with clothes to meet the required regulations. In the first place. he has to have service uni forms of olive drab and khaki for sum mer and winter wear. There must be one kind of service while mounted and another kind while dismounted
 It requires not less than four khaki uniforms of wash goods for field serv- ice. There are trousers for nse while 1ismounted and the riding brooches. With the service uniform go the boots. shoes, pigskin leggings., cap. service nat. saddle blanket to match uniform. | leather equipment and a few other | things. Then there are dress uniforms | 'or dismOunted service. with black | boots and black shoes. cap. cape. over ,oat. hat and helmet
 There must be two sets for summer md two sets for winter of all the diff erent uniforms. Then come the off ial dress uniforms for mounted and .ismounted service With the official ress go gold shoulder knots and cit of gold costing about $50 cap, hat atent leather shoes and boots. Next re the white shoes and cap. Then omes the social full dress uniform for vening wear, with hat, patent leather oots and shoes. purely for social af- airs
 These are not all There must be a less jacket, raincoat of q certain color nd, flannel shirts. The officers have , furnish their own horses. saddles nd blankets They have to pay their VII board and for fuel and lights. hey even have to buy the furnishings 'r their quarters. Uncle Sam only lrnishes the shelter and the commis- on. Even the officers trunks, have to, ? of a regulation size. All these'E ings mean an investment of about 1000 at least to begin with. This is ore than the first years salary, and Ipenses never stop Columbus Dis itch.
