TEACHERS MAY QUIT

Five teachers who served in the city
public schools last year have thus far
failed to notify the Board Of Education
of their desire to return to the schools
next term.
The failure Of the. board to grant the
teachers the increase Of salary desired,
has caused the teachers disappointment
and it is believed the five in question viii
not return to their duties next year be-
cause Of the small salaries paid them.

our e.It ~ Fire.

The volcanoes Of the world form a
"belt Of fire" round the earth and are
rarely more than 300 miles from the
sea. In a few exceptions to this rIie
the volcanoes are near large sheets OF
inland water. This tends TO prove that
the proximity Of water is one of the
main factors in the cause Of eruptions
and that it'is the percolation Of water
through the earth's surface that leads
to volcanic activity.

.BLA MES THE BRITISH
FOR ACTION TAKEN
HibernianS Are Attacked by
Scottish ChurChman.
NO EFFECT I'M AMERICA.

A dispatch from New York says that
considerable anxiety is felt in that city
because of news from Scotland that the
archbishop of ST. Andrews has ordered
a circular read in all the churches I'M
der his jurisdiction, condemning the
Ancient Order of Hibernians. In Rich
mond no such anxiety is felt, accord
ing to prominent members of the so
ciety.
Michael J. O'Brien, an officer of the
state organization of Hibernians states
that there is absolutely nothing in the
rumor so far as American societies are
concerned, as the American division is
absolutely Independent of the order in
ireland and Scotland. Mr.. O'Brien
states that no matter what may be
done or said against the body in Eur
ope, it will have no effect on the or
ganization in America. He is inclined
TO think the British government,
which has so long stood against the
formation of Irish societies, is back of
the movement to suppress the Hibern-
ians. Very often well meaning and pi-
GUS prelates are misled by the design
ing methods and intrigues Of British
officials.

HideouS Animal Eaten in Gen.
trail America.
SENT TO STATE MUSEUM.

hideous looking monstrosity has
been added to the collection of animals
in the Indiana museum, in the shane
of an iquana, from Central America. a
present from j. A. Pulliam of Indian
apolis. The animal is of a green and
gray color, the upper half of it's body
being gray and the lower half gree n.
1t is very much like lizard. except
that it is about two feet long and six
inches high. The head is shaped like
that of serpent, but is set to a thick
neck, below which is suspended a
green pouch about three inches long,
together with green beard.
a row of bristles runs along the ami
mails back, joining to a long sword
like tail, three feet in length. The ami
mails legs are like those of a frog The
skin of the animal closely resembles
that of an eel.
According to State Geologist w. S.
Blatchley, people in Central America
eat and relish these animals in much
the same way that Americans do
duck.
