SCHOOL REPORT.
No. of days taught 60.

4NO. vi uuyo ldu6ll W.
Average daily attendance 30.5.
We regret to say that in no subject
but Agriculture has the school on an
average passed the required marks
as taken from recent exams, yet more
studious pupils are hard to find.
Many of the questions were too diff
fcult for pupils of an ordinary ability
to answer according to the work
passed. Only 80 per cent of the
pupils passed. Unusually good at
tendance has been continued during
the past weeks in spite of the
weather, which is good proof of the
willingness of pupils. In the big
ciphering contest between the boys
and girls the result was so near a
tie that one more problem would
have changed the decision, the girls
being winners. However they were
beaten the next time by the boys on
a big margin. In the Michigan
County" contest in the Bird to Sth
grades, inclusive resulted also in a
close score. Again we welcome all
patrons to our school-room, and will
promise a good time to all who
attend. We have promise of flag
pole in the near future, for the new
flag recently purchased by the school,
the present flag pole being tenn
porary one, not standing much hard
usage.

LOST" FURNITURE
WORRIES EMBASSY
Household Effects of Russia,s Envoy
Shipped from New York Three
Days Ago Have Not Arrived.

A flock OF ''gloons'' are lowering over
the Russian Embassy, and unless the
freight dispatcher Of a certain railroad
gets a move on" the clouded atmos-
phere bids fair to stay. There's a
reason.
When the steamship Etonia, OF the
Phoenix Line, arrived in New York last
Tuesday she had on board ten van loads
OF furniture, the property Of his excel
lency George Bakhmeteff, the Russian
Ambassador. which had been shipped all
the way from his native country. This
shipment made New York movers blush
for shame. 1t was a most efficient dis
play OF furniture transportation, and his
excellency was well pleased. But he
had not counted on American methods.
After the vans had been unloaded he
gave Instructions TO have them placed on
fat cars and removed to Washington,
where they were to be loaded on trucks
and taken 10 the embassy, at 170l K
street northwest. They were started off
o. K, but have myster1ously disappeared,
and tracers have been sent out for them
The town constables Of Havre de Grace,
Gunpowder, and other prominent town

LECTURES on MEMORIAL.
Glenn Brown Addresses Meeting of
Colonial Danes Club.

'The Identification Of Washington and
the Lincoln memorial was the subject
Of an illustrated lecture delivered last
night before the Club OF Colonial Danes
at the Rochambeau by Glenn Brown, sec
retary of the American Institute OF Ar
chitects.
In speaking In defense Of the plan
which contemplates placing the memorial
in, Potomac Park, Mr.. Brown said:
Such a memorial should be placed
within ample grounds to give Il individu-
atty It should have a site second In
Importance to none on the city plan. II
should have beautiful natural surround
ings to emphasize its attracttveness- II
should embody the greatest skill and
thought of our best artists. 1t should
represent the highest culture and taste
Of our civilization
1T should suggest to our mind the
character, life, and accomplishments OF
Lincoln. His name is one OF the few of
the first magnitude in our history, and
his memorial should present this clearly.
No structure should compete with 1t; no
monument or building should encroach
upon 1t. nothing should combine or con-
dict with H."

BRAVE SAILOR COMMENDED.
Rescued Woman After FeIIow-sea.
man Had Lost Life.

Secretary OF the Navy Meyer issued q
letter Of commendation yesterday to an
enlisted man for rescuing a woman from
drowning after a fellow-sailor had lost
his life in the attempt. The hero is Ed
ward Wright, seaman, on the armored
cruiser Colorado. which, with other ships
OF the Pacific feet, has been on a cruise
of several months TO the Hawaiian
Islands.
On the afternoon OF February Wright
in company with Frederick Shaffer. bu-
gler. and other bluejackets. was bathing
at Waikiki Beach. Honolulu, when
woman who had gone beyond her depth
sank. Shsffer. who was nearest to the
scene, plunged in to attempt the woman's
rescue. 1t is thought that in her ex-
citement the woman strangled Shaffer.
Although Wrigh: was close behind Shaf-
fer, the latter had gone down before ne
could be reached and Wright managed
to bring the all but drowned woman to the
beach. The report OF the incident was
forwarded to the Navy Department by
Capt William A. Gill, commanding the
Colorado.
