Prof. Manthey went to Mitchell
Monday, where we understand he
has made application for the prin-
cipalship of the high school. Mr..
Manthey is an able instructor, and
a good organizer, two qualifications
which are both rare and essential
in a school principal. Like all 9th
Ell instructors who possess an am
bition worthy of their calling he
feels that the efforts that he puts
forth should be appreciated and
rewarded, at least to the same ex-
tent that is received for the same
service in other places. This is no
more than right, and no town can
expect to retain a superior grade
of teachers that does not recognize
this fact. Mediocrity is easily
found, but it is the little marks of
superiority that count. The far
mer recognizes this fact in the So
lection of a farm baud. Two men
may be employed in the same field
and apparently do the same
amount Of work yet the one is
careful and jndicious in handling
his team while the other lacks
proper Judgment and the team is
injured. One looks after the ma
cbinery keeping it in repair, while
the other is careless and the ma
chine is broken. In short one is
reliable, looks after the little de-
tails, and saves his employer many
dollars, while the other is reckless
and unreliable. What farmer
would hesitate over. a few dollars
difference In the salary Of these two
men? Yet the same thing is true
and of vastly more Importance in
the selection of a teacher engaged
to train the intellect and morals of
our children. It is not alone the
ability to stand before a class and
give instruction, but it is the little
points Of superiority, 10th in the
instruction and in the general man
agement of the schools that counts,
and dollars should cut little figure
In making the selection.

floors in a remarkably short time.
The first sign of fire was discovered by
Mrs. Harry l.. Ryder, wife of the janitor
Of the First National Bank across the
street from the building. At that time
the flames were already shooting out of
the second story window. Running to the
telephone she at once notified the fire

MRS. EDDY CHANGES
PLACE OF RESIDENCE,
She Quietly Leaves Concord, N. H., by
Special Train For New Home In Brook
line, Mass Everyone Surprised.

Concord, y. H, Jan. 26.--Mrs. Mary
Baker G. Eddy. founder and head 0f
the First Church of Christ, Scientist,
today left her home. Pleasantview in
this city, and by q circuitous route In
4 special train went TO Chestnut Hill,
Brookiine, to house recently pur-
chased by the Christian Science de-
nomination.
Mrs. Eddy was accompanied by her
secretary, Calvin A. Frye, Archibald
Mcclellan, one of the trustees for MRS.
EGdys property, Rev. Irving c. Tom
linson, q Christian Science Reader. "
and a dozen other men and women Of
the Christian Science belief.
Mrs. Eddy left in q special train con l.
sisting of an engine and three cars
over the Boston & Maine Railroad. Her
train was preceded by light engine
and another engine followed after a
brief interval.
Mrs. Eddy's departure caused the
greatest surprise among the people Of
this city, very few of whom suspected
that such a move was contemplated.
Investigation today showed that Il car
load of furniture and one of Mrs.
Eddy's carriages had been shipped from
Pleasantview to Brookline last week.

Try arrangements had been axed up LAST
night.
CHEF Engineer Melville Eldridge. who
was badly hurt at the City hall blaze
Friday. was unable TO leave his bed today
and the responsibility of directing to-
nights fight fell upon Assistant Chief
Engineer Thomas Payne.
From the outset he was handicapped
| by the absence Of the Hayes ladder
truch which was crushed at Fridays fire
but the need OF this truck became so I'M
pc, alive that it was dragged to the front
of the Court Square block. the four-story
office building in which the city officials
have taken their quarters.
| Here it was used to good advantage
| the lrcmen by means of the ladders be-
ing able to wet down the top of the f.
0. Bailey building, which stood between
the Court Square building and the fire.
Early in the course of the fire all tho
electric lights in the wholesale section OF
the city were shut off and. except from
the glare of the burning block. that sec
ton of the city remained in darkness
! The police carly set up fire lines and just
| outside this radius the streets were pack
ed 50 thickly with people that it was al
most impossible to pass through.
The fremen in their effort to save ad-
joining property covered the front OF
the Miliken. Cousens building on MID
Vile street with a water blanket com
posed of seven powerful streams. On
the other side Of the block a similar
plan was carried out and the plan
| worked very effectively. At one time
the flames started n roof fire on the
| Cox Cos. side Of the block, but this
was deluged with water and the flames
extinguished before they could DO
| muCn damage.
The F. o. Bailey Co, wholesale car
| rage dealers, located opposite the fire.
| had narrow escape, but escaped with
Il wetting down.
In addition to Biddeford. Lewiston
was also called upon for help but be-
| fore their arrival the Portland depart
men had the fire we'll in hand.
| a shift in the wind caused the fre-
men extra anxiety. At first. famed by
a northeasterly breeze 1t drove the

in this city and his wife, have been
left in charge of Pleasantview. but
neither Of them could be seen today to
find out what the ultimate plans con-
corning the estate.
Mrs. Eddy first came to this city in
1888. and in 1881 built Pleasantview,
which except for carriage drives about
the city, she has not left, so far as
known, since 1891.
When the news III Mrs Eddy's de-
partura became generally known it was
at first rumored that the removal of
the Christian Science leader might
have some connection with the recen:
litigation over her property brought by
her son, George w. Glover and Next
friends
Dewitt c. Howe, who is associated
with Senator VIM. f. Chandler, as
counsel for the Next friend said he
did not see how Mrs. Eddys departure
would have any effect on the pending
suit in court.
The matter IN question relates to the
fund of $125.000, which Mrs. Eddy left
in trust for her son George W. Glover
and his family. That money, it is
claimed, has never been paid to Glover
and he has instituted an action in court

BAR HARBOR BUILDING.
Work on Its Federal Building Will
Begin in the Spring.

Washington. Jan. 26.-(SpeciaD. 1t
now seems certain that the work on the
new public building for Bar Harbor
will begin the coming spring. The last
appropriation for this building, which
was secured by Congressman Burleigll
some time ago, is for $4,000 for the
building and site. 1t might lie said
that Congressman Burleigh has twice
secured an increase in the size Of the
appropriation. the original bill that was
passed being for but $4,000, which was
for site only. He later secured the
increase of this amount to $4,000. and
finally to $4,000 for building and site
and it is this appropriation which will
he expended or the building soon to be
constructed The delay in construc-
ton has been caused by the vast
amount OF work that is pressing in the

ALMOST A PANIC
Caused by Thoughtless Boy With Fire
Cracker in a Portland Theatre.

Portland. Me. Jan. 24.-About b
o'clock Saturday there was a small
panic at the Savoy moving picture
theatre. A fire scene was on. and IN
the midst of it 4 boy set off snap
cracker. Some one cried Fire" and
there was rush to the stairway.
EX-lnspector Pickett, who was the
doorkeeper, vainly tried to stop the
rush, and big men struggled for the
street roughly pushing aside boys and
children.

Others long enough to let the women
and children out. There was no dan
ger, but the people would not believe
