Architect Would
Give Ten Thousand
Worth of Service
John Mcdonald Saws that He Will
Offer Big Judgment as
Part Pay.

John Mcdonald architect who once got
a Judgment against the Board Of Education
OF Omaha because his plans FOR the high
school building were not accepted and John
Latsnser was employed instead. says he
intends 20 offer TO give the board the
equivalent OF this money IN architects
services on the completion Of the high
school.
Mr.. Mcdonald got his claim from the
fact that he was the regular architect on
the board and employed on q contract to
do all the work. Ten years ago when the
first wing OF the high school building was
to be constructed the board did not accept
the Mcdonald plans but gave the work to
Latenser, who drew plans TOR the whole
building and has supervised TN construc-
ton OF the two wings
The Board OF Education has succeeded
in getting the people TO vote for $4,000
for the completion Of the high school.
among other buildings MIR. Mcdonald
intends to submit TO the board an offer
TO accept as compensation In advance the
$4,000 Judgment already paid and go ahead
with this work In accord with the general
scheme Of the original architect
The members Of the board are not likely
to accept the offer, however. and some OF
them feel rather strongly about the mat
ted. Three Of them, James c. Lindsay.
DR.. Holovtchiner and Frank b. Kennard
have expressed themselves as opposed to
the acceptance OF any such offer, and al
though they will not be committed until
the offer is made, they believe that the
general sentiment will be against IL.

Humor and Morality.

We have extirpated gross humor
from our modern literature, but we
must not suppose that we are there
fore more moral than the Elizabeth
ans, whose literature was full of gross
humor. 1t may be that we are only
more afraid of ourselves and each
other. This kind Of fear is destructive
not only of gross humor, but of humor
OF all kinds. In its essence humor Is
brave as 1t is honest, but with cow
ardice and dishonesty there come
base substitutes for it, substitutes that
make fun of noble things with hui
morous air, and so bring humor itself
into iscredit.-London Times.

The women. National Game.

There is always something impress
sive about a crowd that is swayed by
single emotion; you get an impress
sion of force, says Mary Heaton Worse
in Success Magazine. These women,
who few moments ago had been quiet
shoppers, formed mob. They swayed
and pushed as though moved by COM
mon impulse toward a table where
were the embroideries. From their
throats came a little dull growl, Gu.
rious notes.-the whisper of a mob.
The noise of a mob in Joy or in anger
or in fright, or just its restless muir
muir as it waits, is different from any
other noise that comes from the human
throat-quite distinct, of curious an
imal timber. l heard it once on the
occasion of the throwing of bomb;
again from crowd waiting for bank
to open, and a third time in theater
when fire had been called; and now
here 1t was in miniature from a cou-
pie of hundred women waiting to buy
ten-cent embroideries. They were poor
women with shawls and baskets,
women with babies in their arms,
women with threadbare clothes care
fully brushed, who must think before
spending each dime in the dollar, but
for once indulging in the great sport
OF American women-bargain hunting.

PRESIDENTS PRIVATE WIRE
g. p. Taft VIII Pay $4,000 a Year
for Daily Chat With Brother.

C. j.. Taft VIII Pay $4,000 Year
for Daily Chat With Brother.
Hello, Bill! How are things at the
White House?'
"Fine!" Cor the reverse, probably)
Il never felt better in my life. How's
things in dear old Cincy?"
Couldn't be better. How much do
you weigh to-day?"
This kind of conversation will soon
be passing over leased telephone line
running through Pittsburg, and the
line, to all inquirers. will always be
busy.
For Brother Charles p Taft, he Of
the Vandyke beard, and big bank roll,
is going to have private telephone
service from his home in Cincinnati
to the White House in Washington,
and all without cent of cost to
Brother Bill, the Pittsburg Post says.
Brotherly love will go a long way,
but greater love no brother has had
than this, to string a private telephone
wire 725 miles long so he can talk
few minutes each evening in pure
ly social chat.
Officials of the local offices of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company received details of Charles
P. Taft's plan for the first time. The
wire will be operated within two or
three weeks. One of the companys
regular trunks will be put in service
for the purpose and from o'clock in
the evening until 6 o'clock in the
morning 1t will be at the disposal of
the President and his brother.
ut will cost Charles P. Taft $4,000
a year to have this daily chat" said
one of the Pittsburg officials of the
company yesterday. The man quoted
is an old friend of Manager Clark, who
is putting the deal through.
For twenty-four-hour wire," he
continued, ut would cost Mr.. Taft
$4,000 a year; that's $1,000 a week.
If Mr.. Taft wanted to talk to the Pres
ident during the day instead Of during
the evening the cost of leased day.
wire would be s2S,OOO year, or $4,000
more than he will pay"
The wires over which this most pri-
vate line Of conversation will pass will
roughly follow the line of the Pan
handle railroad from Cincinnati to
Pittsburg and thence to Washington
roughly along the line of the Balti-
more & Ohio. President Taft's laugh
will gurgle through the cities of Co.
lumbus and Pittsburg and over the
mountains near Cumberland.
No outside hand will manipulate the
plugs and no outside ear will hear the
words, as the line will be kept private
in the strictest sense.
