Report Due Today
On Cadets Charges

Charges by Irving Frank and John e.
Eckert, Business High School students,
OF favoritism in the matter of appoint

Principal Alan Davis and Charles Hart,
faculty military director. are expected
to come before the Board of Education
for final disposition at this afternoons
meeting report to the BOARD prob
ably will be submitted by Superin-
tendent w. NJ. Davidson.
1t Is believed this report will sustain
the principal and military director in
respect to the gravest part OF the
charge made by the students, who have
alleged they were promised Teappoint-
ment as officers this year without ex-
animation and then suddenly called
upon 20 take examinations. A mis-
understanding" is likely to be the solu-
tion of thiE situation, as reported to the
board. Such a report also will eXcul-

Waiting to Be Crushed
By JULIAN VARNF1Ar1

afternoon. l was thunderstruck, hav-
ing supposed that l had not been there
an hour
Presently l saw something dangling
from above After watching it for
some time was able to make out that
it was rope. Then discovered that
it was coming toward me. Lower and
lower, nearer and nearer, it came till
at last l was able to grasp it.. Then
remembered that had my box of wax
tGpers for lighting cigars in my pocket,
and, striking one of them, tossed it
upward For an instant could make
out the ceiling. 1t was Of iron, and ill
its center was an iron ring, from which
the rope was swung. Lighting several
tapers in succession, held them above
my head and at last could see the cell.
ing as long as taper would burn.
Horror of horrors! 1t was coming
down to crush me!
Again. from sheer agony I became
unconscious. / was revived by the
clock above striking 10. Every stroke
seemed to toll my knell. The ceiling
was now so low that l could touch it
with my hand. In half an hour all
would be over.
Then | heard, far above, a sound as
of the rubbing of metal against metal
| listened and could distinguish the
noise Of cogwheels running together,
and. oh, blessed sight-the ceiling was
rising!
Then it occurred to me that I was
in the clock tower under the weight,
which was now being wound. l would
not be crushed. l would starve. There
was one chance for me. Selling the
rope, l tied it under my arms. AS
soon as the slack was taken up 1 began
to rfse-ten, twenty, fifty, a hundred
feet. There was more light. looked
above. Between me and the weight
were arched windows. Might l not get
through one of them on to a roof? I
got up swinging motion and when
reached the window chung to the case
ment and unloosened the rope. Break
ing the glass, l looked out The roof
landed safely on my feet.
In the east was streak OF dawn, but
[ did not stop to take note of it, going
here and there till l found door by
which to descend. l found myself in
the body of the great cathedral. All
the irrevercnce of the previous day

the altar. Then, exhausted. l stagger-

WHERE CHALK COMES FROM.

about as big as piece Of chalk" is
familiar old time phrase that is sup
posed to represent the limit in indefi-
niteness of expression, for in reality a
piece of chalk might be the size of a
pinhead or it might be as big as
mountain. And yet there are many
people to whom "a piece of chalk"
would be definite neutrality-suspicious. to
whom it would simply mean lump of
chalk such as carpenters or lumbermen
use in marking lumber or chalk Inv the
form of crayons used in marking on
blackboards, these being perhaps the
only ways in which they had ever seen
chalk used.
One such person, with but limited
knowledge Of chalk's varied uses and
of the great quantities in which it is
used, was surprised toread in the ship
news of daily newspaper of the ar
rival of steamer with a cargo of
chalk. He was still more surprised to
learn that such shipments are common:
that there is imported into this country
chalk to the amount of about 100000
tons annually, says the Baltimore
American.
The chalk thus brought here comes
mainly from the south of England and
the north Of France, with a little from
Denmark. Much of it comes from chalk
pits on the banks of the river Thames
not far from London Chalk forma-
lions may rise above the level surface
of the earth, like the chalk cliffs on the
southern coast of England, or they
may lie under level ground and go be-
low the surface. The chalk miners
first remove the accumulated earth and
various deposits above the substance
as they might in uncovering any min
eral deposit or formation. Then the
chalk Is got out Of a pit as stone might
be taken from quarry, except that
chalk doesn't have to be blasted, only
picks and crowbars being necessary
Besides the common chalk of COM
merce, which is quarried out and which
is imported in great quantities. there
is also imported what is called precipi-
tate chalk. 1t is used in the manufac-
ture Of face and tooth powders. The
quarried chalk is used in making whit
ing and in the manufacture of oil
cloth.

Years ago, when not far out OF my

German that he suspected them of

myself my identity was unknown.
A few weeks later was doing a
cathedral in one of the principal cities
of the continent. I do not care to
name the place. l was irreverently
poking my nose into all the corners
and crannies l could find when l was
accosted by young man, who asked
me If l would like to see very curious

to see anything curious, whereupon he
invited me to follow him. He led me
to dark corner, where door not
over four feet high stood open.

he said, you will be repaid for your

closet not much too large to hold my
body. Then 1 heard the door slam and
the bolts in the lock shoot forward.
My sensations are not only indescrib-

them whatever, would be extremely
painful to the listener. l had not been
locked up a minute before it occurred
to me that the band upon whom had
spied had tracked me, discovered who
l was and taken this means of putting
me out Of the way. There was moth

Therefore l looked up to see what
there might be for ceiling Far
above l saw what appeared to be a

while, trying to determine what it
was, but my mind was not in state

no Roadway.

mental condition. During this time,
l presume, gained some rest from
my sufferings, for my consciousness
was restored. Since there was moth

again upward
The rectangle had doubled in size.
Again l fell to thinking as to what
it might be, and this time. in order TIC
occupy my mind and thus relieve the
mental strain, gave way to all sorts
of speculation. The cathedral clock
