OVERLOOK A SCHOOL.
No Provision Has Been Made for Weir
school of Mines.

Galena, Kan, Dec. 2O.-Now what's
going to happen to the Weir School
of Mines? Professor Wolfe, head of
the school, has discovered that the
university board of regents made no
provisions in its budget which viii be
recommended to the legislature, for an
appropriation for the support of this
school Furthermore, Mr.. Wolfe says
no member of the board ever took the
pains to ask him for report of the
progress the school has made or how
much of an appropriation would be
needed for the next two years.
But the principal does not intend to
let the matter rest in this unsatisfac-
tory state, he says. He will make
plans at once to see that budget IS
prepared and that the legislature is
informed of the needs of the new
mining institution. Professor Wolfe
has not determined, however, how
much of an appropriation will be asked
for or what items will constitute the
budget.

EDidernic of TyDhoid.

SaIina, Kan, Dec. 20.-A number of
typhoid fever cases in the city has
brought the matter of testing the
water used for drinking purposes
prominently before the public. 1t is
now established beyond doubt that the
disease comes from drinking contam1-
mated water and in several places it is
said that the disease can be traced
directly to the drinking of well water.
There is no epidemic in the city, how
ever, although some of the cases have
come from small areas.

WILD ANIMALS ARE CURIOUS
In Order to Get Acquainted With
Them Ore Only Has to Keep
Still.

There are three things to know, and
another to do, if You are ever to get
more than feeting glimpse Of wild
animals, William J. Long writes in the
New York Independent. The first is
that all wild animals are not governed
by fear The second is that wild
animal hates TO be watched and be-
comes alarmed tho moment he finds
eyes fixed intently upon him. Tho
third is that all wild animals are in
tensely curious, and that in moments
when they arc not feeding or playing
or sleeping they get most of their fun
out Of life by indulgins their curios-
ity.
Their first attitudes, toward every
new object, unless it be moving to-
ward them with evident hostility, is in-
variably one Of curiosity rather than
Of fear.
The one thing TO do in view OF this
knowledge is to keep still, physically
and mentally still. and so take adv2n-
tage of the animals curiosity. Better
than roaming the woods is to sit quiet
in q good place and let the animal
come to you. Then observe him casu-
ally. yelling your Keen interest ana
never looking at E'm intently You
are to keep physically quiet lest tie
animal take alarm. and mentally Gulet'
because excitement OF any kind ls as
contagious as fear or any other dis
case OF mind Or body.
When I am alone in the woods the
wild animals rarely show alarm. A
thousand times I have had them near
me. large and small, and watched
them indulge their curiosity ana then
move slowly off, turning their heads
for a last look: but let me take an
other man with me, who grows men,
tally excited at the sight OF game,
and almost invariably the same AMI
mails are nervous and fdgety and end
by running away.

ITOhll S GREAT Victory

and Cents in This Love
Affair.
BY WINSTON CLIFFORD

Father will never consent tr oul

fully.
why not?" Tom asked, kissing the
pretty, pouting lips.
Because he'll say that you can't
support me-" she cried. "And III
never be happy with anyone else"
"Of course you won't, for I don't
intend to give you chance to try it, y
Tom laughed, and caught her again
| in his arms Come, l want to kiss
you again to celebrate" he said quiet
ly, taking toll of her lips again.
Celebrate what?' Marjorie asked,
smiling, but not seeming to object to
the process in the least.
THE anniversary of our engage
nent," Tom remarked. 1T is now 10
O'Clock. At exactly o'clock You
promised to marry me, so our engage
ment is an hour DID," was Toms ex-
PLANTATION.
We'll never get fathers consent"
Marry me without it." Tom sug-
gested.
Majorie shook her head. mo, I
love father too WELL" she said slowly.
We'll have to think of something
else"
"What?" Tom asked. I'm no Ma
poleon of finance who with a single
dollar can meet and defeat your hon
ored sire, as the stories would call
him, On Wall street. In the first place,
he doesn't move along that thorough
fare himself, and in the second, 1
know about as much about frenzied f.
nance as you"
Father takes such good care Of
himself that I fear there's no chance
of your saving his life," Majorie put
in sadly.
ITO say nothing Of it being some
what difficult task for lightweight
like me to pull off the rescue stunt
with prospective father-ip-laws 80
pounds" Tom grinned.
Don't make fun" Major1e plead I'd,
for it was a serious matter.
"All right, dearest, I'll try and see
what he says right now" and before
Maiorie could demonstrate he went
into the house, for the two had been
out on the veranda, and guided by The

same table with himself; in fact, TO
find him there at al, but he did not
KNOW that Tom Was a friend of the
son OF the man who had originated
the banquet, which would have ex-
planned his presence.
The affair passed off agreeably, the
great parsonage departed, and some OF
the visitors drifted into the lobby OF
the hotel, MIR. Graham among them.
After receiving congratulations upon
his We'll chosen speech, which was
one OF the best CT the evening, his at.
tention was attracted towards some
what noisy group over in one corner,
and seeing Tom among them he
sauntered in their direction. If he
had gone deeply into the reason, it
would have been that he was trying
to find full justification for his atti-
tude toward the young man.
AS he came up, one OF the number,
the son OF Toms employer, was say
Ing tauntingly:
. <1i% 14N " III -ou.
Mr.. Graham remembered that he
had noticed that Toms wine glasses
had been turned down during the BAN
Quet.
NO" Tom said quietly, and Mr..
Graham realized that Tom was not
contributing to the noisy conversation
Of the group.
Then what makes you a spell
sport?' continued the young man, Who
had evidently been drinking too much.
"Me? Oh, don't drink because I
don't care for it, that's all. The next
day headache seems too high a price
to pay for a somewhat questionable
pleasure the night before" and he
laughed easily, then added:
Come on, Bob; let's go home"
You're afraid to drink l dare you
to take drink, just one to show you
know how" and the tone was SO
taunting that Mr.. Graham fully e1-
pected to see Tom turn with his
friend into the cafe; but that young
man only laughed again, and throw
ing his arm about the shoulder Of his
tempter, said quietly:
you're coming with me-" and man
aged to get him away from the con-
vivial crowd.
Mr.. Graham damned his hat down
on his head and went home. For a
full hour he studied over the matter,
with the result that the next evening
he sent for Tom. When that aston
ished but delighted young man ar
rived, he told him briefly:
"Take my girl. I'm satisfied. A
man who can control himself can al
ways control others. need you in
my business"
Il need him too, father" Majorie
whispered delightedly.
With his arm about Majorie, Tom
shook Mr.. Graham by the hand. I
guess We all need each other" he said
happily.
