Undressing a Statue.

A statue Of Camille Desmoulins.
unveiled recently in Paris, disap-
peared from It's pedestal the next
night and the explanation is distinct
ly amusing. 1t was found that most
of the garments with which the
sculptor had provided the revolu-
tionary frebrand were OF the wrong
date. The coat and cloak are Of a
pattern which did not come in until
several years later. and instead Of
knee breeches and large-buckled
shoes Camille's neither limbs are In
cased In very modern riding boots.

German folklore. It seems that
Theodore came by his kingdom In
the good old-fashioned way. con-
quest. Originally he was Baron
Theodore Neuhof, son of a Wesphal-
Ian nCbieman, who on March 10,
1886, landed with a band OF adven-
turers at Aleria. in Corsica. He sub
jugated the Wild Inhabitants, and
was proclaimed King eventually by
the people themselves. In those days,
Corsica was being fought over by the
French and Italians; and Theodore
was once or twice driven from his
kingdom by the contestants He re-
turned victorious on two occasions.
but ultimately his power was bro
ken, and he sought refuge in Lon
don.
The King of Corsica, 1t seems. was
able TO obtain considerable credit on
the strength Of his kingship. and by
pawning hts realms he managed to
live. Finally. however, his creditors
who, possibly found It difficult to
realize on their securlty-seized the
august person of the King himself
and cast His Majesty into a debtors
prison. After lingering in durance
vile for several months he was lib
Grated In conformity with the Insolv-
ent's Act
On walking out Of Jail the poor
King was in a worse plight than
when In It. He hired sedan chair
the prototype Of the cab OF to-day
and asked to be taken to the Por-
tpguese Embassy. The Ambassador
happened to be out-Gt least. to
Theodore. whose mission was doubt
less known to be an impecunious one
and the King, on turning to pay
the sedan man. found that he did
not possess the necessary fee of a
shilling. Thereupon he petitioned to
be taken to n friend OF his in Soho
from whom ne begged shelter. Theo-
dore's plight must have been very
sad one indeed, for the next day, af-
ter being taken to his tailor friend,
he became. very Ill, and in three days
was dead. He would have been bu-
ried In potter's field had not a
friendly oil man come forward and
given him decent burial in st. Anne's
Church. His death occurred on De-
cembor Il. 1856. but the tablet reads
December Q. However,. 1t probably
does not make much difference to
either the royal parsonage or his
descendants just now.

Syrup Suggestion.

Always use porcelain or granite
ware kettle in making preserves, and
use a clean wooden spoon. In max
ing your syrup, be careful not to let
It burn or boil over and always skim
carefully. If you have old-fashioned
preserves that are not in alright
Jars, and you see some mold coming
OF the top of them, don't mind 1t, as
It keeps the air from the preserves
and does not injure them in the
least, only be very careful when you
remove It to use the fruit that you
do not let any of the mold get into
the Juice.

myself less to the Gear than to the

which very often bring the cost of
the old bricks after this treatment
up to that of the new bricks. This
accounts for the reason why more of
the old bricks are not used. To lessen
this expense they have devised a
plan by which machinery will take
the place of hand cleaning. The ma
chine is supported on a platform. the
latter having an opening In the CEN
ter to allow brick-cleaning wheel
to rotate on shaft. This shaft Is
mounted upon bearing blocks Sc
cured to the sides OF the platform
and Is operated by belt and pulley.
The cleaning wheel Is formed of two
disks, placed together side by side
and connected by screws. A large
number of small openings are
formed through THE disks, the In
ner ends of the openings where the
two disks meet being countersunk.
Nails are inserted In the openings,
the nail heads fitting into the coun-
tersunk ends and the points project
Ing through the opposite sides OF the
disks. Guides are attached to the
platform In line with the grinding
wheel, the old brick can work upou
either side of the wheel or two oper-
ators may work, one upon each side.

Debaters for G. W. q.
Ready for the Contest
With Cincinnati I cam
Second intercollegiate
Event Viii Be Held on
Friday.
Debate Held Here Last
Year Won By Wash
ington Boys.

The second intercollegiate debate to be
held between the George Washington
University and the University of Gin
cinnau will be held March /. The
George Washington boys will leave for
Cincinnati, where the debate will take
place, on Wednesday or Thursday OF
this week. 1t will be remembered that
in the George Washington University
Cincinnati debate last year. which was
held in the Belasco Theater in this city,
the Washington university was sue
cessful. This makes the approaching
contest in Ohio all the more important,
as a victory for the Buckeye team Will
probably mean that a third contest must
be engaged in before the stronger in
stitution in forensics can be determined
The Buff and BlUe will be worn to
Cincinnati by the young men who were
chosen 20 represent their university
from twenty-eight contestants after
three preliminary contests. and who
have been thoroughly trained by Dean
Veditz, OF the department of politics and
diplomacy.
The team will consist of c. L. Allen,
OF South Dakota: E. p. Gates. OF
Arkansas. and a. c. Agnew. of Indian
Territory, with E. o. Schneider. Of
Michigan, as alternate.
The debate will be opened for George
Washington by f. p. Gates, a member
Of the junior class of Columbian Col
lege. Mr.. Gates is the youngest man
who has ever spoken in an intercolle-
glate debate for George Washington,
being not yet twenty-one years Of age.
After coming to this city ne continued
his preparatory education at the Cen
trail High School. and was a member Of
the class of % from that institution
While in Central High School. Mr..
Gates participated in the first inter
high school debate ever held in this
city. Not only was he with the winning
side in this debate, but his team was
also successful in its subsequent con-
tests with the Baltimore City College
For his good work in Central he was
awarded the monogram of the school,
an honor much coveted.
Albert C. Agnew Is also a graduate
OF the Central High School of this city.
He was born in ireland twenty-one
years ago Like Mr.. Gates. he repre-
scented his high school in debate. ap-
pcaring on two of the teams sent out
ny Central once against Western High,
of Washington. and against the Balti-
more City College. In the G.. w L. he
has represented the Columbian Debating
Society successfully against the Need
ham and Enosinian Debating Societies.
In debating he has almost the same
record that the coach of the team. Prof
Veditz. has for successful work, Mr.
Agnew never having lost a debate.
