DEALS ISLAND /
FAMILY POISONED
Two Children Of Hosea Web
ster Dead From Eating
Canned Goods

PRINCESS ANNE Md, March 2S.--
Two children OF Hosea Webster, mer-
chant, Of Deals Island. are dead as
a result, IL is thought. OF ptomaine poi
son caused by eating canned goods,
and other members OF the family made
a narrow escape from a like fate. Tho
dead children are Thomas years old,
who died on Thursday afternoon, and
zella. 8 years old. who died tho follow
ing day. The other members of the
family who were made IN from eating
the food are Mr.. Webster himself, his
wife, Laura, who was at one time in
great danger, and his two daughters,
Dorothy and Esther.
Though it is not definitely known
how the people were poisoned, it is
thought that they were made IN by
eating canned goods. All the mem
bers Of the family were taken despcr-
ately III a few hours after breakfast
on Thursday. exhibiting all the symp-
toms Of ptomaine poison.
Or. Windsor, of Deals Island, was
sent for, and he at once saw that Zella
Thomas and Mrs. Webster were in q
critical condition, while the others were
more or less affected. A dispatch was
sent to Baltimore for medical assist
ance, and everything was done TO save
the lives Of those who were in danger
and TO alleviate the sufferings of thos,
who had been made but slightly IN
Despite all efforts the two childrer
named failed 10 respond to treatmen
and continued TO sink gradually undei
the influence of the poison, Thomas
dying late Thursday afternoon ans
zella dying the following afternoon.
Mrs. Webster won in a heroic strug
gle for life. The other members OF thi
family are out Of danger. The dea,
children were buried on Saturda,
morning.
Mr. Webster has a brother, Noal
Webster, Of the firm Of n. w. Webste
< Co., ship chambers. in Baltimore.

SEX IN THE SCHOOLS.
Coeducation Shows Interesting Con trasts Between Boys and Girls.

Experience shows that the differ ence in the fitness of female scholar ship are not so great as in the male. writes a European educator in the Educational Review. There have ex- isted q number of male youthful prodigies in mathematics or musical composition. and further proof of the greater variability of male chil- dren is that the unfavorable abnor- malities are also more frequent with the male than with the female
 Warner has made an investigation on 50.000 children, nearly the same number of each sex. and found that in round numbers 24 per cent of the boys but only 16 per cent of the girls are in any way defective
 The classical country regarding CO., education in high schools in Europe Russia, a country of very great cul- ture. in which coeducation has exist ed since 1885. An experienced female teacher in one of the oldest schools there says quite openly that boys show more aptitude and inclination for one special subject or another while girls generally try to study all subjects .in an equally careful and diligent way
 Girls are more easily influenced by suggestion than boys. and it may be consequence of the greater suggesti- bilitY that the power of application for work comes more easily to girls than to boys. Walking through the corridors of the Vienna university one may get from the number of lady students that one sees there the inn pression that there must be a high percentage of female students. but statistics show that there are only !. per cent. The fact is that ladies are more regular in coming to the lec- lures.
 As to work done in single subjects of instruction in the high school course we know almost nothing des:- mite. Regarding the total result of school work I know of no positive in- formation except that coming from the coeducational high schools of Fin land. It shows always the better re- suits with girls.
 When we look at that there is no reason to be adduced against coedu- cation in high schools; the only ques- tion is the difference in the ability of the two sexes at the same age. The completion of growth in boys requires d longer itme than in girls. and the difference between the physical condi- dition of boys and grls shows itself very distinctly in their ailments. prob ably also in their mortality

ST. PAUL WoMEN's BIG FEET.
Shoe Men Say No Other Feminine Tootsies Require as Much
 Leather.

Minnesota women have big feet. Ac- cording to shoe statesmen. it. takes more leather to cover the feet of wOm- en in this state than it takes in any other of the union, unless it be Wis consin or Michigan. There are more 6 and size shoes sold. and far more Ss and 9s than anywhere else, and large sized shoes generally are car ried in stock to meet the demand.
 ''This is no dscredit to Minnesota women," said J. P. Conley. representa- tive of a New Hampshire shoe com pany, because women are large in this part of the country-taller stronger and heavier than in any other sections and necessarily have larger feet Nearly all the shoe stores carry sizes as high as No. 10. The average demand is for about No. or s. How ever big feet in Minnesota are not confined particularly to the women. Men get in on it. too. The shoe stores carry their sizes up to No. II. and a few carry 14s. the largest made in general stock
 Women in southern states have the smallest feet There are more Is and 2s sold there, I suppose. than any where else. The Kentucky girls and Georgia girls pride themselves on the small shoes they can wear. Next. in order to the southern women. come those in New York, where the average sizes run from to D.
 MT. Conley said that tan shoes for spring and summer wear next year will be absolutely tabooed. and that gunmetal and patent leather will be the correct foot dress.-St. Paul Dis patch.
