Chicago Senator Leaves 'Timepiecs
Under Pillow in Car Berth.

Washington, Feb 2S.-Those rapid
fire trips between Chicago and the

was the time ball.
At IL o'clock meridian every day
this ball drops, and everyone then
knows that it is officially and other
wise noon to the dot The group Of
watchers were standing, watches in
hand, in order to set them according
to the sun and the government. Mr..
Lorimer never had seen the ball, and
as soon as informed what it meant be-
came interested.
Guess I'll get the correct time" he
remarked as he nonchalantly reached
for his watch pocket. Then look OF
wonderment and anxiety spread over
his face. by Jove!" he exclaimed.
with a sudden recollection, Il left my
watch under the pillow of my berth IN
the sleeper!" q
The last seen of him he was hot
footing in the direction of the lost and
found Office of the Pullman company.

MINES AND oUARRIEs CENSUS.

Washington. D. c.. February IS.
The Geological Survey and the Cen
sus bureau have entered into joint
arrangement by which the Survey is
relieved OF the Collection of statistics OF
the annual production of minerals for
the year 1909.
That work is. by the agreement,
merged in the Census Bureaus activi-
tics under the Thirteenth Census act,
which required a census of mines and
quarries for 1909.
Consequently. the Survey will not
this year send its own schedules direct
ly to the mines and quarry operators.
The Census bureaus general and sup
Elementary schedules relative to this
branch of it's decennial work include
the inquiries s in which the Survey is in
terested and such other data as may be
necessary for the latter's reports will
be furnished the Survey by the Census
Bureau. The schedules will be collect
ed by the Census special agents and
enumerators.
The cooperative arrangement was IN
recognition of the necessity of uniform
itv in the compilation of the statistics,
the elimination of duplicate work and
INQUIRIES. and the desira bility of econ
omy in the collection of the required
data

NOT A VETERAN.
Dr.. Blake Says Grants Son Was
Wounded Al Play.

Boston, Mass, Feb. 2S.-Dr. c. A.
Blake, physician of West Brookfield,
has attacked the movement to have
Major General Frederick Grant en-
rolled as a Civil War veteran because
of the fact that he was shot during
the siege of Vicksburg while serving
as an aid to his father.
The man who shot young Grant, it
is claimed by DR.. Blake, was Caleb
Berry, of Bridgewater, Mass, and the
evidence he produces tends to show
that Grant was not shot on the line OF
duty, but was wounded while on a
pleasure excursion by Perry, one OF
his fathers on sharpshooters, who
fired because young Grant refused to
halt when ordered.
Il do not wish to say anything to
detract from General Frederick
Grants fame" said DR.. Blake, "but the
fact remains that his only part in the
war was that of boy inhabiting his
fathers camp"

EDUCATIONAL REFORM.
Primary Education Is Being Sadly
Neglected, Says Pres. Taft.

Washington, Feb. 2S.-Reform i'll
primary education in the United States
was declared to be necessary by Pres
ident Taft in an address tonight at
banquet of the University Club of
Washington.
The attention of the President had
been called to the failure of the ap-
plicants for admission to West Point
and Annapolis by Rep. Champ Clark
of Missouri, who in an address to the
club said that the applicants failed
on rudimentary subjects.
Il agree with the gentleman from
Missouri" said President Taft. that
primary education in this country
should be more thorough, and on that
subject i must say that he is nearer
right than he has been for a long
time.
Il believe that the ambition of school
Superintendents throughout the coun
try who have charge of primary and
secondary education have led us into
a lack of thoroughness that we ought
to reform.
1T is true that applicants for admission
to West Point and Annapolis failed in
many instances on subjects that every
schoolboy ought to know. They cannot
spell and are deficient in other rudiment-
airy branches"
The President spoke also of the value
of university men in the affairs Of gov
ernment and praised college men who are
serving the government at financial sac
rifce because they believe there is some-
thing more in life than money and lux
ury."
II believe we are passing through pc
riod," the President said. in turning to
national affairs, where we need sane and
normal thinking, where the sensitive con-
dition of the public is likely to lead it
into hysteria, a period where the public
must be brought to sane thinking and
commonsense. l do not know of any class
of men more charged with that duty than
the university men.
ut is true that an occasional universi-
ty man is over-educated and that he goes
beyond the bounds of commonsense, but
the great body of university men, after
they have been out of college long enough
to learn the ways of the world, may be
counted upon to reach safe and sane con-
cluSionS."

the police, laid for last Saturday

not been for the watchfulness of a
