Curls in the hedgerow his mimic horn,
And the primrose hourly edges aside q
The leafy driftage Of wintertide;
Far in the vale, where the woods are still,
Stands a delicate daffodil;
Hasting brooks in the prime Of the year
Murmur merrily-April's here,
With gentle rains and westerly vanes,
Buttercup buds and daisy chains.
Between moist meadow and sunlit sky
The sad-voiced plover is c~ircling high;
Sudden and loud through larch and fir
Rings the laugh Of the woodpecker;
And the wagtai-t iirts his plumage pied
In snatches Of flight by the waterside;
Garden voices that late were dumb
Whistle and warble-a time will come
For shade of leaves and pillasc or
sheaves
And swallows a-twitter in last years

Echo it. utter it-April's here:

The concave form Of the bucket Gre
ates greater pressure against h wa

out Of the water and moving c~oncentrlc
with the wheel shaft edgewise through
the air diminishes air resistance. The
name in which the buckets enter the
water edgewise avoids the loss Of pow
er involved in the downward pressure
Of the water. The automatic fitting of
the buckets leaving the water throws
off the back wash and eliminates dead

Mrs. Eliphalet Howe of Centerville
had never encountered Hamlet" either
in the pursuit of literature or on the
stage, up to the time of her first visit
to her Boston niece. On that occasion
she was taken by the niece and her
husband to see a performance Of the
play.
How did you like it, Aunt Jane?'
asked her nephew-in-law, as he piloted
the old lady up the aisle by her elbow,
when the performance was over.

nantly. How you and Nettie can sit

feelings were S'hen | received that an
swer! A collision which would surely
result In the loss Of life seemed newt
able; nothing short of a miracle could
avert it. I blamed myself for the
whole thing. If l had answered the
call Immediately, l should have sue
ceeded in ditching the Old Tartar. l
seemed to be standing on the verge or
a precipice over which I feared every
moment to fall. l only came to myself
when | heard a rumble, and, looking
down the track toward Dawson, saw
the headlight Of an engine. A moment
afterward the accommodation pulled up
at the station.
81 lost no time in approaching the
conductor for the purpose Of learning
how the collision had been averted. To
nv surprise, he had no knowledge Of
the Old Tartar's being wild He con-
sidered me a fit subject for an insane
asylu,n, and did not hesitate to tell me
so. l even began to doubt my own
sanity.
"a message of inquiry was forward
ed to Bartson, and the following reply
received:
".Hines was ordered to ditch the Old
Tartar. Did he do lt|
"Eot one Of us could offer any ex
planation until suddenly the conductor
exclaimed:
"'She must have jumped the track !!
"Such proved to be the case. The
Old Tartar was found at the foot OF
an embankment about a mile and a
half east Of this station. Near by were
found several ties, most Of them pretty
well smashed up.
"You doubtless wonder how this ex'
traordinary thing happened. 1t was
explained about a year later by Pete
Scully, n member Of a notorious gang
Of outlaws who had infested this re-
gion. 1t seems that they had planned
to hold up the accommodation train.
They had lanterns, ct cetera. with
which to signal the train; but fearful
that the engineer would recognize them,
they placed several ties on the track.
SO that If he failed to heed the signal
his train would be dcrailed.
"They had just finished operations
when the Olu tartar appeaTeu OIL lHe
scene. She knocked the ties a-fiying,
but they did their work, for she jumped
the track and rolled down the embank-
ment. Fifteen minutes later the ac-
commodation passed that very spot I'M
molested. The gang had decided that
under the circumstances 1T would be
best not to hold up Il train.
THAT was the Old Tartar's last run.
And now, stranger, that you have heard
the story, l want you to answer the
question: Was 1t a miracle?'-Waver

DOCTORS IN THE SCHOOLS.

Medical Inspection Spreads Here,
America sim Behind Europe.
In the United States, Boston seems
to be entitled to the credit Of estab-
fishing the first regular system of med
ical inspection of schools. This was
done in 1894; but two years before this
the sanitary inspector of New York
had appointed q medical inspector of
schools, who was probably the first
medical officer of the public schools ap-
pointed In this county.
In 1891 so physicians were selected
by the Board Of Health to inspect the
public schools Of Boston. In 1893 nine
such inspectors were appointed in Chi
cago. In 1897 the Board of Health at
New York appointed 13l medical in
spectors for the public schools, with a
chief, at d salary of $500 q year.
In 1898 the bureau OF health in
Philadelphia passed a resolution di-
recting hat each Of the 10 assistant
medical inspectors shall visit one public
school In his district each day, inspect

SHE DIES AT 100.
Thanks to Family's Magic Beads,
Michla SchiIOtzky Lived Long.

nankS 10 Fanl1lyS MuElc netus,
Michla Schflotzky Lived Long.
Mrs. Michla Schilotzky died recently
at the Home Of the Daughters Of
Jacob, at 3O2 East Broadway, at the
age of 1O6 years, says the New York
Sun. She came to New York from
Asiashuf, In the state of wilma, Russia,
tw~enty-four years age and had been
at the home four years.
The last year Of her life she spent for
the most part in the hospital Of the
home. About Christmas time, how
ever, she attended an entertainment
given by the home at" the Grand Cen
trail Palace, where she served as
Judge Of a casotzosky, a dancing con-
test In which the dancers were men
who had passed their hundredth year.
Mrs. Schilotzky came Of a long-lived
family. She left nine brothers and sis
tiers in Russia. the Youngest Of whom
was 9S when he died. Her father and
mother also lived long. The reason for
this, they say at the home, is simple.
The family for more than 300 years
has owned a string of amber beads.
Very common beads they are to look
at, giving to the unframed eye no hint
Of their power. Always the eldest
daughter Of the house has worn the
necklace. and while she wore 1T death
was warded off. The beads were pos
sessed Of marvellous healing powers
and circulated as freely among the
children Of the east side who had the
whooping cough or the measles as gen
eratlons ago they did between the huts
of a Russian village.
On Sunday, when her daughter, Mrs.
Fannie Kowner Of SO East Goth street.
visited the old woman, the beads were
given to her.
"Take them,' said the mother. "for
it is not well that I should bear them
longer"
Then she talked Of the beads. which
never before had left her neck for
more than twenty-four hours.

Great Fowl struck Ships Cabin anA

While coming up the bay to Balti.
more Friday night the steamer Avalon
ran into a flock Of wild swans off
Thomas Point and q swan was cap
tured by the lookout. w. T. Whitley,
thrilling experience.
The steamer was running at a lively
clip when Whitley heard a futtering
n a few minutes later saw a dock Of
swans directly In front of the boat, the
Baltimore Sun says. They circled
around a few times, then lit In the
water on the port side. He notified
First Officer Corkran, who turned on
the searchlight. That seemed to fright
en- them and they all arose from the
water. There appeared to be about
100 and all few over the pilot house
except one, which struck the port side
Of the steamer with a crash. A pas
senger In state room As, which was
damaged, thought there had been a
collision and got out OF his bed.
when l saw the swan strike the
boat I rushed up to 1t, expecting to
pick 1t up with ease" said Whitley,
speaking OF his experience. "To my
surprise the thing turned on me and
gave me several blows with Its wings
which nearly knocked me down. Then
I grabbed at it again, only to be Decked
with its big bin, making my hands
bleed.
first I did not know what kind
OF bird 1t was. but l was determined
to capture 1t. The wings beat me back,
but l kept up the battle until Mr..
Corkran arrived ard we tied the bird.
Even after pinioning Its wings 1t was
hard to hold 1t, as its strength was
great. We finally got a piece Of o p
and tied the legs together. Later a
coop was made and we placed the bird
in it."
Shortly after the steamer locked at
Light street the swan was sent to the
Office Of Assistant General Manager
A. r.. Seth Of the company. The Office
force was attracted by the big bird,
and when It was measured 1t was
found to be eighty-nine inches from tip
to tip Of its wings and 1t stood fifty
I'VE inches high. Mr.. Seth presented
the bird to the 200 at Druid Hill park.
