situation became more puzzling. This
tragedy which he had accidentally
stumbled upon must have had q cause
other than blind chance. It was the
elimination Of a plot, with some rea-
son behind more important than ordi-
nary robbery. Apparently the wagons
contained nothing Of value. merely the
clothisg, provisions, and ordinary
utensils Of an emigrant party. Nor

Their Keith understood, his heart
beating rapidly, his teeth clenched to
keep back an outburst of passion. So
that was their game, was it?-some
act Of his had awakened the cowardly
suspicious Of those watching him
across the river. They were afraid
that he knew them as white men.
And they had found a way to safely
muzzle him. They must have ridden
hard over those sand dunes to have
reached Carson City and swofn out
this warrant. 1t was a good trick,
likely enough to hang him, If the fell
lows only stuck to their story. All
this flashed through his brain, yet
somehow he could not clearly compre-
bend the full meaning, his mind con-
fused and dazed by this sudden real
ization of danger. His eyes wandered
rom he steady gaze of the marshal,
who had half drawn his gun fearing
resistance, to the man at the bottom
OF the steps. Suddenly it dawned
upon him where he had seen that
dark-skinned face, with the black goa.

Red Light" He gripped his hands
together, instantly connecting that
sneering, sinister face with the plot.

As though the words had aroused

to front the stern, bearded face.

quietly. "Il go with YOU"

Trenton. April l5:-State Superinten-
dent of Public instruction Charles j.
Baxter. who has held his position under
four governors, has sent out an open
letter eriticising the school investiga-
ton brought about by the senate com
mittee. He is against a single head Tor
the state school system. saying that 1t
will bring the whole affair into poh-
tics, place too much power in the hands
of II man and render the system built
up during the past fifteen years null
and void.
The superintendent bitterly arraI2ns
the FreIinghuysen bill, which passed the
senate Thursday, and which makes The
school boards of cities like Trenton and
Paterson composed Of seven men named
by the mayor. He says that the proper
number should be eight, as at present,
and makes a plea that the bill do not

ing that with an odd number of Item

saws further that politics has been

Anne esIsyn and tho Lemon.

Who ever thinks of connecting such
a commonplace article OF diet as the
lemon with the romantic history Of III
fated Anne Boleyn7 Yet indirectly she
was the cause Of its first Introduction
into England and SO into popular no
tice. Henry VIII. gave such splendid
feasts and pageants in honor of the
coronation OF Anpe and of their pre-
vious nuptials as had seldom been ac-
corded to queens Of the blood royal.
These kingly entertainments were In
turn followed by the great civic feasts
Of London, for which the whole world
was searched for delieacies to add to
the splendor. At one such banquet,
grsced by the presence of the royal
pair, a lemon was introduced as an
elegant novelty. To an epicure such
as Henry the acquisition Of a castle
in France would have proved less &C.
ceptable, and such was the Importance
attached to the discovery-so says an
old biographer-that a special record
was made Of the fact that the cost of
this precious lemon was six silver pen

D~ESPhTCHINC
is COMPLETE SUCCESS

Now that telephone despatching
has been extended to cover the
greater part of It's lines, the Lehigh
Valley railroad officials find that the
system is a thorough success. Com
munication between the dispatcher
and the officers along the road is
much less subject to interruption
than it formerly was; and the abil-
ity of the dispatcher to talk direct
ly to the engineers and conductors is
helpful to the rapid operation OF
trains.
Not only are phones used for des-
patching. but it is possible now for
train crews on the road to commun-
icate with headquarters at any time.
If anything happens to the mechan-
ism Of a locomotive or car, the con-
ductor can left his portable tele-
phone apparatus out OF the train,
connect with the wires overhead by
an extension pole, and summon re-
lief at once.
The new system on the Lehigh
Valley has wen exceeded the hopes
of the officials.

Elephant Humor.

The courage of a lion at bay, great
as it is. is no greater than that of the
buffalo, and he must yield his scepter
to the elephant, declares H. L. Tsngye
In his book, "In the Torrid Sudan" as
to courage, size, strength and intelli-
renee 1t is a temptation to declare
that the elephant possesses a sense OF
humor. A herd of elephants once fell
in with a train of donkeys. Their
attention concentrated on the load the
donkeys carried. With all the mischief
Of monkeys, the loads were torn
asunder and their contents distributed
over half the province. At Bor, on
the Mountain Nile, the elephants were
at one time full Of practical jokes.
Passing at night time through the vii
lage, they would knock the sleepers
up by demolishing their huts above
their heads, then contentedly march
away.
