SALISBURY, N. G. MAR. 9TH 1910.

SA P~So wv f
communication from Mayor A. L..
Smoot and chairman ex-oficis
of the school board, stating why
the question of d1scontlnulng the
schools arose, noting She embar-
raised condition of the city's treas
urey aud limiting at the cause of
such embarrassment. We are
glad to publish this and think it
should receive a careful perusal
by all who really wish to see pub
lie affairs conducted on honorable
and business like methods, Mr.
Smoot states that some of the &C.
counts go back as far as Prof.
Coon's administration, 1902 and
1903, including supplies of all
kinds, including coal bills.
This is a pretty showing for an
administration which boosted
that the revenue from the saloons
supplied the funds with which to
run the schools, so when we
remember the former administra-
sion, which incurred these debts
AMI gave these notes, was then
receiving al enormous sum from
the saloons, distilleries and. whole
sale liquor dealers. Now the
facts in the case, ay they appear
on the serface, seem to be as fol-
lows: During the recent Boyden
administration, saloons, distiller-
i.f and wholesale liquor dealers
were licensed and paid into the
general fund of the city about
$50 600 per annum. A very neat
sum and sufficient to run the
schools, if it had been SO applied.
A we understand it, these special
taxes were put in a general fund,
tb re being no legal provision
vi atever for the schools, and it
is expressly stated that nc money
fre the general fund should be
used for the schools, there was
nc authority to use the saloon
money, the amount borrowed, or
al = other money fer that matter,
to run the schools. Hence the
sta 6ement that the schools depend
ed on this particular revenue for
their existance is not only false,
bu5 if any receipts had been SO
used it was a misapplicatiou of
such receipts. And it is a re-.
markable coincident that our city
attorney did not discover and
point out this fact then, instead
of now when the schools are so
badly in need. At any rate the
schools are now sadly crippled by
the extravaganza and recklessness
of the former administration,
the administration which received
annually the $780, 900 from the
whiskey dealers. Yet, in the face
of these facts, the friends of the
former administration and advo-
Gates of whiskey are laughing and
saying: II told you So" To us
# looks like a studied effort to
cripple the schools in a spirit OF
revenge, with the demagogical
u%6terances of friendship for the
schools by the whiskey advocates
TO the contrary nevertheless,
Revenge may be sweet but it is
a boomerang that is true to its
course, The schools may be tenn
porarl'y crippled, temperance
may be temporarily defeated
but truth endureth and will arise
triumphant in the due course of
time.

A cake of ice at 80 degrees Fahrenr
heit is ordinarily considered to be
rather cold substance, but it is
as much hotter than liquid air as The
oven in which bread is baked is hot
ter than the ice.
A teakettle partly filled with liz
uid air and placed on cake of ice re-
ceives so much heat from the ioe that
the liquid air soon boils vigorously
and the boiling can be made more
violent by adding few Jumps of ice
If the normal temperature of the
earth were at the freezing point OF
air and We could obtain a block of
ice such as is distributed by the, ice
man of to-day, such ice could be- used
as fuel and would be put into the

u pefied the Attacks Of the Serpent
Killing Isuana.
Snakes on the pampas of South
America have many enemies. Burrow-
ing owls feed on them, and so do herons
and storks, which kill them with a
blow Of their javelin bcaks. The ty-
rant bird picks up the young snake by
the tail and, flying to a branch or
stone, uses the reptile as a fail until
It's life is battered out. The large liz
ard Of the pampas, the iguana, IS IA
nous snake killer. 1t smites the snake
to death with its powerful tail Mr..
Hudson In his Naturalist In La Pla-
Ia" tells this story:
One day friend Of mine was riding
out looking after his cattle. One end
Of his lasso was attached to his saddle.
and the remainder of the forty foot
line was allowed to trail on the ground.
The rider noticed large iguana lying
apparently asleep, and, although he
rode within a few inches, 1t did not
STIR But no sooner had the rider pass
ed than the trailing lasso attracted
the lizards attention. 1t dashed after
the slowly moving rope and dealt it
a succession Of violent blows with its
tail. When the whole of the lasso,
several yards of which had been pound
ed in vain, had passed by, the iguana.
with uplifted head, gazed after 1t with
establishment. Never had such a won

A Seattle advertising man for real

and tried before the United States Dis

SMILES of United States money in his

peculiar features of the case and the
fact that he did not know that he was
breaking the federal law in showing
the people pictures Of real money
along with his advertisement to buy
land, the court fined him only $40 and
costs, In all amounting TO S21.55.

THE HEDGEHOG.
Tactics Il Employs In Making q Meal
of an Adder.

Tactics II Employs In Making q Meal
Of an Adder.
The hedgehog is the possessor Of
tastes which, like Sam Weller's knowl-
edge Of London, are extensive and pc
culiar," says the Scotsman. Scoring
fastidiousness, It can maze a hearty
meal of nearly any insect and is ono
of the vertebrates which can tackle
the cockroach. For effectual exter-
mination of beetles and crickcts it is
as useful as mongoose among the
rats, but 1t is not generally known that
1t has a Partially toward snakes and
adders.
The methods it employs for the at
tack are interesting. Having come
upon the adder. Il goaas- that reptile
10 the offensive and at the first dart
Immediately rolls into ball. The nd
der is then left to attack the spines,
In which encounter II naturally comes
on second best. After awhile, when
the hedgehog feels that his antagonist
has exhausted his power, 1t once more
opens out and makes bite at the ad-
der's back, thereby breaking It's spine.
1t then proceeds to crunch the whole
Of the reptiles body by means of its
powerful jaws, and after that 1t is
said to start at the tail and devOur it's
