EXIT CITY SCHOOLS.
Chicago Architect Predicts They Will
Be Removed to Country.

Chicago. Dec. Gritty years from
now there will be no schools in Chi
cago.''
This was the prophecy of Architect
Dwight H. Perkins of the board of edu-
cation uttered yesterday. Mr.. Perkins
does not mean that Chicago will have
quit trying to educate its children, but
that local conditions. particularly those
of transportation. will have changed to
such an extent that the schools will be
so to 40 miles beyond the city limits,
far from its smoke. dust dirt and tur-
moil and close to nature.
1T will not cost Chicago SO much to
maintain the schools in that era" said
Mr. Perkins. 1.-The land on which they
will be built will not be worth thou
ands of dollars front foot and many
problems that are concident with a
great city will vanish when the schools
are 40 miles outside of it.
I'VE will shoot the children out
through pneumatic tubes every morn
ing, into fields, groves, and parks to
school, was the architects enthusiastic
prophecy. and in the evening we will
shoot them back again.

Much Hard Luck.
Is Wealthy But Lives at Nation

HAS $4,000 TO CREDIT
Bride Awaits His Coming But
Commander DetainS Him.
Thrown into "Crank House,
When He Became Insistent.

Leavenworth, Kan, Dec. 22.-With a,
fortune of more than $4,000 at his. COM
mand, and a bride-elect waiting for him;
at the marriage license counter. Rankin
J. Helmericks, 60 years old, an inmate
of the national soldiers home, was con-
fined in the crank house, where he
was placed by order of the commandant
of the home in the hope that his plans
to take a wife would be thwarted.
However, prospects are that Cupid
will win, for the bride-to-be has secured
a writ of habeas corpus, and the court
had ordered that the body of Rankin J..
Helmericks be brought before him, dead
or alive.
1t was through a matrimonial bureau
that the old veteran met am
Miss Cora ConLren of Oklahoma City
At that time Helmericks was reputed to
be worth at least $4,000 from a financial
viewpoint, and it appears he had but
little difficulty in convincing Miss Con-
trell, who is many years younger than
he, that she should change her name.
Old Lover Sends for Ffancee.
Last week he received from Washing
ton, D. c.. check for $500 back PEN
sion. He Immediately sent for his
fiancee to come to Leavenworth, meet
him at the office of the probate judge,
and become Mrs. Helmericks. Miss
Control reached Leavenworth and went
directly to the court house. Her aged
lover and prospective husband was not
there. She sent a message to him at
the soldiers home and Informed him
that she had arrived.
Helmericks was all ready for the
ceremony, with the exception of one
detail, which was that he must obtain
permission from the commandment to
leave the home and become the head
of a family. He went to the command
ants office and entered request.
Commandant Cook took the matter
under advisement for two minutes. and
then informed him that under no cir
cumstances would he be permitted to
marry, and forbade him to leave the
grounds.
Thrown in .'Crank House,
When the judge of the probate
court, where the bride-to-be was
waiting heard of the proceedings,
Deputy Sheriff Larkin, armed with a
summons in a garnishment proceed
pers were served upon Helmericks.
However. the home authorities ig-
nored them and refused to allow Hell
mericks to go with the officer.
When the deputy sheriff had de-
parted, Helmerfcks was placed in the
ward for the insane on the grounds
and locked up, the commandant be-
| lieving that this would bar any pro-
cess or scheme upon the part of those
the marriage license clerk.
Helmericks is still in the crank
| house, but his fance is hopefully
waiting for him at the court house,
where, she has been assured, he will
be brought
