New York.-Pupils of the Morse

been in the new building presented to
the city Of Bath, Me-, few years ago
at cost of nearly 500, 900 by Charles

have been as varied as could be
imagined. It has been the rule, how
ever, to lay such jokes to the boys
of the school, and recently demure
young lady perpetrated a trick which
made any of those played by the boys
look small in comparison.
She had been studying zoology, and
had been presented with snake con.

This she carried to school, wearing II
as band about her hair, and then dur.
ing a sly moment placed 1t in Prin.

the desk and wriggled itself down on
the platform and started for an exit,
when 1t was seen by some Of the girls,
who became so frightened that they
stood in their chairs, and It was only
after some minutes of terror that one
of the boys managed to capture 1t,
when order was once more restored in
the schoolroom.

 Joseph Jefferson. the actor, has a school boys fondnesss for circus or a wild west performance. Last summer. while MT. Jefferson was in New York City preparing for his tour in 'sThe Rivals" wild west show was being presented at Brighton Beach, summer resort only a few miles distant. Mir. Jefferson, at fiis first opportunity, saw this performances He enjoyed himself immensely. At the conclusion of the performance. he wandered over to where several Indians were stolidly smoking their pipes. To one of them he said, q beg your pardon. please don't consider my remarks as personal. but are you a real Indian?"
 The Indian merely gave a gutterai erunt which the actor construed as au affirmative answer. Mir. Jefferson then asked: s"Are all of the rest real In- dians. aiso?''
 The Indian gave another grunt.
 well, by love, this Is interesting ' exclaimed Mir. Jefferson, ''just think of 1t. all you chaps real Indians. Say, if you are all genuine Indians, how does it happen that you understand Eng lish 50 thoroughly"
 This evidently touched a tender spot for the Indian replied fin the purest Of English: My dear young man. your inqufsfttve insinuation infers incidence in imbibing intelligence. It implies ig- 'noranee, iliiteracy. incomprehensibiliti- ness. indectsion and insensibility in Indians. I invoke your indulgence and fntercede in behalf of the Red Man"
 By that time. Jefferson had decided that he didn't care tc ask any mora questions. He had started to go home. and he was: travelling just as fast as he could.
