''HELLGG|RLS' MUST
GIVE BONDS
Telephone Companies Elk
act Bond From Girls Not
to Marry in Six Months.

Spokane, Dec. 23.-When Miss
Margaret Perkins went to work as
telephone operator in a local hotel
today the management required her
to give bond not to marry within six
months. This instrument, duly
signed and sealed, holds Miss Per-
kins' bondsmen liable to the extent
of $500 in the event she becomes a
bride on or before June 21st. 1911.
The sureties are prominent business
men.
The reason for this unusual re-
quirement. by the hotel management
Z is that half dozen telephone opera
tiers have married within as many
months, the last two being Miss Flor
e2ce Joyce, who recently married a
rancher, and Miss Olive Bourne, who
has gone to Rockland, Mich, to join
her intended husband.
Il am not engaged to marry any
one, nor DO | expect 10 enter into
an engagement during the coming
six months" said Miss Perkins, a
comely brunette, land for that rea-
son my bOndsmen have nothing TO
fear. OF course, | have received a

Tho Curious Electric Eel.

The electric eel, which is common in
the streams Of Brazil, is possessed Of
a natural electric battery-a tremen-
dous one Beneath the skin are two
pairs Of peculiar little bodies passing
longitudinally along the muscles and
near the tail. One pair is next to the
back and the other near the lower fin.
These bodies are made up OF great
number of little cells, two or three hun
bred Of them, and plentifully supplied
with nerves. Examination OF one of
these electrical organs has shown that
in action it IS very much like a gal
vanic battery, with the anterior ex-
tremely positive, the posterior mega
tive and the current only discharged
at the point Of contact with an object.
This has been proved to be so power
full when complete that chemical COM
pounds are decomposed by it and steel
needles magnetized.

Told Who He Was.

DR.. Beadon, former rector In FL
than, Kent. England, one Sunday
preached from the text ''Who art
thou?' After reading it he made a
pause for the congregation to reflect
upon the words, when a man in mill
tary dress who at that instant was
marching very sedately up the middle
aisle OF the church, supposing it q
question addressed to him, replied, Il
am, sir, an officer Of the Sixteenth
regiment of foot on a recruiting party
here, and, having brought my wife
and family with me, I am come to
church because 1 wished to be ac-
quainted with the neighboring clergy
and gentry This so deranged the
divine and astonished the congrega-
ton that the sermon was concluded
with considerable difficulty.

Madrid, Spain, Dec. 23.-After a
stormy all night session the cham
Der OF deputies today passed the

vote of 10S to 90. This is a notable
victory for Premier Canalejes and
was obtained after bitter fight in

Of disapproval was set upon the
legislation, even before it had been
submitted to the Cortes. The effect
of the bill restraints the establish

Persisted IN NORTH
SEA
Believed that Aviator Grace
Lost His Life in Flight
Yesterday.

London, Dec. 23.-There is no
news this afternoon Of the fate of
Cecil S. Grace, the American avia-
tor. who disappeared in fog in at
tempting a return flight from Calais
to Dover yesterday. 1t is feared
that he fell into the North sea.
The report of his landing at Deal
was a canard. Fleet motor cars
sweeping up and down the coast
roads found no trace of the missing
swept by searchlights of warships
and other vessels who have been
appraised of the facts.

Grace was sighted seven miles
east of Deal. but was soon lost in
Il dense fog and is now believed to
have persisted. That he lost his
course is evident, but some of his
optimistic friends express the belief
that he is trying for a distance flight
and will land in the northern part
of England.

BOYS COMMIT
DARING ROBBERY

One of the most daring robberie5
ever committed In this city was cngi-
neered by two boys, years old. late
Saturday night, when the cigar and
tobacco store of Hemenway Sc Mo-
ser, near Twenty-tourth street on
Washington avenue. was broken into
and robbed OF S51 In cash and about
$40 worth of Meerschaum pipes
They claim that they had planned
the robbery on Saturday night. but
that they had abandoned the idea,
intending TO wait until Sunday morn
ing They assert that yesterday
morning they entered the store by
way of a door which they found open.
and that they extracted Sc or 81 from
tho till and left the place.
At the station house one OF the
Youngsters gave up 81 and the other
$275, saying that that was all they
had secured. They declare they had
attempted the robbery in order to Sc.
cure enough money to purchase two
new bicycles. The managers OF the
cigar store claim that their loss in
cash was $51 and in pipes about $50
II the story told by the managers
of the store is correct. then the prob
lem of finding the missing pipes and
the remainder OF the money Will &C.
cupy the time OF the detectives The
officers SO far have devoted their time
to settling the amount and the where
abouts OF the money claimed TO have
been stolen and Will dclVe into the
disappearance OF the $40 worth OF
pipes later
In the meantime the young robbers
are safe under lock and key.
Manager SaundcrSon Of the cigar
store stated this morning that he is
certain OF the amount Of money stolen
and says that the door could not have
been left open by the employees OF
the place. 1t is his opinion that either
one or both OF the lads came into the
place before closing time Saturday
night and sneaked into the cellar
where they STAYED during the night.
The breaking of the latch on the eel
lar door which leads TO the room con-
tainlng the cash register would seem
to bear oIt the managers theory. al
though the mothers OF both boys as
sert that the lads were home during
the night
There is a possibility that after the
pONS hdu entered the store and taken
from the cash register the So IS. other
persons entered through the door
winch they. left unlocked. and stole
the money and the goods which the
cigar store manager claims are still
missing.
The arrest Of the boys was made
by Detective Charles Pincock and
Jailer II. Anderson on information |
furnished by Manager Saunderson
Saunderson suspected the lads he.
cause of information which he Sc.
cured from newsboy. Both the oovs
arrested were familiar with the I'm. |
terror OF the cigar store from having
entered the place to sell papers.

Education and
Social Reform
BIZ the Rev. charIes stslzle.

The spirit Of social unrest is not
confined to the poverty stricken. The
people Of the Stun and Of the low-class
tenement are cropping blindly for re-
lief. but there is q growing and an in-
stelligent movement among the great
middle class, consisting largely Of the
better type Of artisans and the semi
Professional people. This is largely
due to the unusual opportunities for
education in this generation.
IN the medieval times and in the
early renaissance only those who were
expected to become members of the
leisure class received an education.
The original scheme of education Inn
Piled nothing more than rather shall
low culture given to q small ruling
class made up Of the official, military,
ecclesiastical satellites of the ruler,
and It was intended more for orna-
ment than for use. On the other
hand. there was the large unedu-
Gated class whose function it was to
remain Ia Ignorance and to obey. Since
the introduction of education for the
common people, both the curriculum
in the schools and the general pur-
nose Of education have undergone a
decided change. Educators awoke to
the fact that It was necessary to pre-
pare children for the practical duties
of life. and, while our public school
system is by no means ideal In this
respect, it has enlarged the opportun-
ity of the masses in their reaching for
better things.
