IN vogue have been considered good praC-
tice by all railroads employing them.

the strides in development OF railway sig
mailing devices in recent years re-
markable. II Is notable that until recently
little improvement mas been made in lock
ing drawbridges and lift rails.

COURT TRIALS AT
INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
System of Discipline is Strengthened
by Self Constituted Tribunal Main
tanned by the Pupils.

Superintendent ]. S. Mahoney of the
Industrial school who was Phoenix
visitor the other day. says the boys in
the school have q regularly constituted
court organization, which has become
a valuable aid to the management in
promoting discipline as well as a
means of both instruction and enter
tainment for the boys. Every month
the boys elect judge, court clerk and
bailiff from among their number, to
serve until sthe succeeding election.
Every time a boy violates one of the
school rules. if the fact is discovered,
he is arrested and tried and if found
guilty is punished This does not do
away with the school discipline but is
an institution maintained auxiliary
thereto, and in many cases of trivial
offenses the punishment of the mock
court is ample.
The boys respect it as much as they
do any rules for it places them on
their good behavior so that when they
have an impulse to do wrong they not
only fear the school discipline but the
bad name the offense will give them
among their fellows. For these rea-
them. He secured an old docket from
a justice of the peace which serves for
court record and Prof Lee, formerly
of Phoenix, but now of the school fac
ulty. gives them any needed instruc
ton in court forms. etc. The superin-
tendent serves in the capacity of a SUI
preme court and if any convicted" lad
feels that his punishment is too severe
his attorneys place the class before
the superintendent.
Usually the punishment for ordi-
nary Cffenses, is so much time contin-
uous work on the school pump, filling
the tanks. or so much Imprisonment in
the school rooms during the hours that
the good boys are given for relaxation
and play. And it is seldom that an Of
fender tries to dodge his merited pun
ishment. The superintendent gives the
boys full liberty in their conduct of
the court, neither appearing nor allow
ing any other visitors to appear dur
ing a trial to embarrass them or pre-
judice jury in any cause.

A DAY OF PENItC0SI
A GIFT OF TONGUES
Wierd Religious Exercises on Street
Corner.

Yesterday was a sort of pentecostal
period for one of the religious organi-
cations which occupies the streets ev-
cry evening. The people of this faith
have been irreverently called the
Holy Rollers" on account of their
physical gyratiOns but they have usu-
ally conducted themselves on the
streets as most worshippers of the
streets do. There have been some loud
prayers and some fervid oratory and
testimony giving but that has general
/ ly been all of it,
| But yesterday there was something
more, confusion of tongues and ap-
parent hypnotism. They made the in
tersection of Washington and First
streets impossible about Z o'clock.
Two women stood in the supposed at
/ titude of hypnotists and between them
was another who was supposed to be
speaking in an unknown tongue No
doubt she was, for no one has yet been
found who had the slightest idea what
the conglomoration of vocal sounds
meant. Certainly no one on earth could
translate it. Others joined until the
services took on the character of PAN
demonium. Many women onlOokers
and some men turned away; they said
they could not stand it; the proceed
| ings gave them the ''creeps." But an
army of small boys was not so affect
ed. They followed the religionists
back to their hall, all yelling in I'M
known tongues.

mistaken by anyone for a language of
any sort. The observer did not wait
to see the effect on the subject, the sit

addition thereto the psychological in

went over and one more base or third
was all under the ground rules to have

Quiros is entitled to a home run on
his drive because it was a hot liner,
curving away from the fielder who did
not get enough hold on it to defect the
ball from its onward journey to the
