AN INNOCENT VICTIM.
The Original Of squesrs Died Of =
Broken Heart

Broken Heart.
The grossest injury which Dickens
ever inflicted on a fellow being was
his too accurate portrait of an inno-
cent man in his Squeers. That York
shire schoolmasters were, as a rule,
cruel and wicked enough it is true, but
the particular schoolmaster who was
recognized and who recognized him.
self as the original Squeers seems to
have been an exception to the rule.
1t will be remembered that Dickens
and his illustrator travelled together
to the north Of England for the pur-
pose of collecting material for mick
leby" and especially for the Dothe-
boys espisoGe. At Great Bridge they
visited a boarding school known as
Bowes academy. The master, William
Shaw, received the strangers with
some hauteur and did not as much as
withdraw his eyes from the operation
Of penmaking during the interview.
PHI sketched him in the act; Dick
ems described the act. The personal
pecularities of William Shaw were
recognized In Squeers. Shaw became
a butt Of popular ridicule, lost his pu-
pills and finally died of a broken heart.
Yet there abundant evidence to
prove that he was a really excellent
and kind hearted man, who was made
to suffer for the misdeeds of his neigh
bors-Exchange.

Quaar GoId6ah.

Beautiful and most interesting Of all
goldfish is a native Of Japan, and 1t is
noted for the beauty Of its tail and the
abnormal length of its fms. The tail
resembles a delicate veil, and the fms
are developed to such an extent that 1t
is impossible for the fish to make rapid
progress in the water. 1t Is therefore
solely ON account Of its beauty that 1t
Is priced and because In this respect 1t
differs widely from other varieties Of
goldfish, such as the telescope fish"
the eyes of which bulge out OF the
head In most unsightly fashion; the
celestial eyed fish," which is also I'M
comely because its eyes are bullet
shaped and are ever turned skyward,
and the 'egg fish," which is so called
because its body is somewhat amor
phous, but resembles an egg more
than anything else.

SENSE or HEARING.
Sound Waves and the Way They Act
Upon the Ears.


The detection of the direction of
sound by TIE sense of hearing is, like
the rapid focusing OF the eye on OBJ
jects at different distances, one Of
those instructive operations which are
continually done without any conscious
method.
Sound waves traverse the air as rip
pies stir the water, and the ear by ex-
perience acquires some slight power OF
detecting the direction in one case, as
the eye does with far greater accuracy
In the other Usually we unconscious
" receive assistance from other senses
as well. Often we fail to locate at
once some hidden source of sound,
such as singing bird. and then our
instructive ingenuity displays itself.
The intensity of sound is, of course,
by no means so great behind screen
as In front of it. and every one carries
with him the screen of his own head,
which may prevent a particular sound
from being heard so well by one ear
as by the other. If, then, the head is
turned until this inequality disappears
and both ears hear equally well we
know that we must be directly facing
or turned from the source of sound
and our previous rough idea of its
whereabouts generally prompts us tc
! face 1t.

~ CONSIDERING the Importance of
the kitchen to the rest of the
home, it seems strange that 1t
should very often be the least
attractive room from every point Of
view in the house. We find it tucked
Of TN some dark corner with little or
no ventilation, its wall and floor COW
ering dark and dingy and its equip
ment so meager 1t would be impossible
to find any pleasure in working with
them.
The kitchen is the workroom Of the
home. Its arrangement, pleasant or
otherwise, very often gives the key
note of conditions in the home. Ny
idea Of a real kitchen is this: 1t
should be as bright and CHEEKY as any
room in the house. would much pre-
fer gloomy parlor than dark, I'M

have a north and east exposure. This
would insure sunlight In the morning
and cool breeze on hot summer after
moons. Then l should be careful to
have q good view from the kitchen
window, something beautiful to look
out upon, like stately tree, bit of
green lawn or a trim vegetable garden.
The outlook from kitchens in towns
and cities is too often brick walls of
adjoining buildings, untidy back yards
or high board fences. From kitchens
In the country we often look out upon
an unsightly woodpile or barnyard
nlled with a clutter Of old farm imple
ments. With such daily views it is no
wonder If the women, who must spend
three-fourths of their time In the
kitchen, have very little love for house
work.
There should be at least two win
dows and, If possible, an outside door
opposite one window in order to have
good ventilation at all times. The
kitchen should not be unnecessarily
large, but Its size will depend on the
number Of persons in the family and
the amount Of work that is to be done

FRENCH DETECTIVES.
They Are Trained For Their Duties In
a Regular Police School.


a Regular Police School.
In Paris aspirants for positions in
the detective force are taught in reg
ular school, where day after day they
are put through various exercises until
they become proficient and receive ap-
pointments or show that they have not
the detective instinct In them.
The students first are trained in the
use of their eyes and their hands. One
of the lessons consists in placing the
pupil in brilliantly lighted room full
of furniture and ornaments. Then he
is taken to another room and required
to make a sketch of the room he Just
has left, indicating the position Of all
the objects in it. He Is allowed to look
at face for a minute and then re-
the eyes, the general form, etc. He
afterward is required to pick out a
photograph of the face from among
several hundred others.
In educating the hand the student rs
placed In dark room in which are
many curious and unusual objects.
These he feels over and then writes a
description of them. He must remem-
Der even the slightest details. One test
is to let him handle gems in the dark
and then tell what they are, whether
diamonds, rubies or what not. This IL.
of course. an exercise for the more ad-
vaneed pupils.

other convenient feature in the ar

of Joseph Brock, who died at his home,
323 Cedar street, Hammond. on last
Wednesday morning, was held yester-
day afternoon under the direction of
the Spanish-American war veterans.
The funeral was largely attended, and
the extreme illness of the widow.
which prevented her from attending
the funeral, added greatly to the sor-
row of the affair.
The funeral services were preached
at the family home at 1850 p. n. by Rev.

of consolation to the bereaved. Music

GAME RESULTS IN
INJURY TO PLAYER

Indiana Harbor. Ind, Oct. 81. - The
Hammond Tigers lost to the Indiana
Harbor football team in a holly con-
tested game at Indiana Harbor yester-
day afternoon by a score of 8 to O..
The Harbor team outweighed the
visitors, and according TO the Ham
mond players, they were handicapped
by a short field. The game ended
with the ball in Hammond's posses
sion, within five yards of the Harbor
goal.
There was star playing on both sides
and the only accident to mar the game
was the accident to Sid Nellie, a Ham
mono player. He was simultaneously
kicked in the groin and pumped on the
head. He was carried from the field
in an unconscious condition and was
still confined to his bed this morning.
He is under the care of a physician,
but apparently not in any serious dan
ger. He expects to be out In a few
days. An East Chicago team will play
the Tigers in Hammond next Sunday.
