LEGEND Of the Founding of Persian

LEGEND Of the Founding Of Persian
College at Meshed.
The following story from the Per-
sian manuscript Of which a transla-
tioI has been published under the title
''The Glory of the Shia World" reads
like a passage in the Arabian
Nights" 1t tells Of a Persian at
Meshed who had founded a college
with wealth gained in remarkable
manner:
zone day a rich merchant asked him
whether he was willing to work at a
place to which he would be conducted
blildfolded. Being a fearless Kerma-
nj and very poor, he agreed, and was
led through many streets to a court
yard, where the bandage was remov-
ed, and he was ordered 10 dig a hole
anil bury gold coins and jewelry. This
he did for several days, and, being
ses rched before he left, he saw no
chimee of lettering his condition.
However, one day he saw a cat,
which he killed and ripped open. He
then sewed up some money and jew
els inside it and threw it over the
wall. After this, when his work was
dOlle, he wandered about until he
found the cat and not only secured the
money hidden in its body, but also
learned the position of the house.
"Its owner shortly afterward died,
anil the astute Hermann bought his
house with the gold sewed up inside the
cat. As the merchant had never re-
ve;tled his secret to any one he became
bis heir and, in turn, when dying, be-
qusathed his money for the pious task

Many Applicants
After the SuperintendencY Of
Richmond School to
succeed Goats.

That Richmond City Schools are the
most up-to-date and stand at the top Of
the others in Kentucky is plainly shown
by the fact that nearly every Superint-
dent in the Bluegrass has made applica-
ton TO the Board of Education for the
position to succeed Supt. Coats, whose
resignation Will take effect at the close
of school in June. Chairman of the
Board, A. d. Miller and Secretary z T.
Rice have been surprised at some Of the
applications coming from neighboring
cities, where it has always been suppos
ed the conditions were equally as invit-
ing to an educator as in Richmond fin
ancially and otherwise but it seems that
the Richmond schools stand out little
ahead of the others, at least they all
want the place. Secretary Rice said
that in order not to create any dis
sension in the towns where applications
cams rom, he would not give out the
names II publication, but it is known
that there has been about dozen.
Supt. Ireland, of the Stanford schools,
should always be under many obliga-
tions to the local board for its very
kindly consideration of his application.
When it was known several weeks ag,
that Supt. Coates would resign at the
close of the term, Prof. Ireland was tn,
first to apply for the place, and on &C
count of his excellent record, he stood
line show of landing the place. Whe
the Stanford Board learned that it wa
quite probable he would be accepted
lere, they held a meeting and immedi.
ltely raised his salary $500. Next da.
Prof Ireland notified his Board b,
would not leave Stanford. The Boar,
is not in a hurry to act, as Supt. Coate
will hold on until the close of school
and it will not make a choice until III
right man is found.
Prof. Kelley, who has been Principa
of the High school for the past five
years, is popular candidate and on &C
count of his close connection with th,
school for this length of time, it is no
unlikely that the Board will give him
a little preference over the others.

Whose day 5 a peaceful ten

The Amounted Son of God
makes known
A blessing for the eyes that
weep.
The light of smiles shall fill
again
The lids that overflow with
tears;
And weary hours of woe and

Are promises of happier
years.
There is a day of sunny rest
For every dark and trou-
bled night;
And grief may bide an even

But joy shall come with ear
ly light.
Nor let the good mans trust
depart,
Though life its common
gifts deny,
Though with a pierced and
broken heart.
And spurned of men, he
goes to die.
For God has marked each
Borrowing day,
And numbered every secret

And Heavens long age Of

For all His children suffer
