The Blow a Train Can Strike,

The force of the blow struck by a
modern train going at high speed is
greater than that of the shot from a
modern gun. At least such is the state
ment Of Il scientist who has been look
ing into this question. He estimates
that a modern passenger train will
weigh about 400 tons and that it
ut a velocity Of seventy to sew.
enty-five miles an hour. or about 100
feet a second. A mass of 400 tons pro-
PEELED at this velocity will strike u
blow twice as great as that delivered

ton cannon. This. he states, accounts
for the tremendous destruction caused

Nails.

America has the honor Of having
made the first cut nails. toward the
close of the eighteenth century. Before
that nails We're made by hand. and
their manufacture was a household ill.,

width and thickness. They may be
made of steel or Of malleable iron.

A Fish Story,

A fisherman caught seven bass in the
Potomac river above Washington at
one time.
This Is how he did it: The bass were
caught and strung on a line and kept
swimming in the water alongside the
boat. When the last fish was being
placed upon the line the entire bunch
slipped away from the fisherman. But
imagine his wonderment when at his
next cast the last fish strung upon the
line took the bait and the whole seven
were safely landed.
The gentleman who vouches for this
story is without doubt an honest and
truth telling matthew York Tribune.

The boys and girls seem thoroughly to
enjoy going through the crowds to sell
the cold stuff, particularly so on ac-
count of the fact that they are given
a bottle of pop for their services. So
successful have they been that this
week three permanent swings were in
stalled with money collected. These
swings will undoubtedly prove almost
as popular as the two giant strides"
which are great source of pleasure.

Some Playground Suggestions.
When the Fairgrounds were put into
operation six weeks ago c. C. Starr,
then superintendent of schools, placed
in the hands of the supervisors some
suggestions for their work which are
in part as follows:
1.-The playground affords a good op-
portunity to encourage the educative
industries of the community, such az
gardening, sewing and household af-
fairs in general, handicraft, and re-
pair work where benches and a veri-
ETY. Of tools are not needed. On the
playground the teacher can have con-
ferences with the pupils in regard to
what they are doing at home, to direct

big round of fun lasting for hours
However, Miss johnson decided on
the day the remark was made by the
kiddie that she would give the one
hundred youngsters on the grounds in
struction in English according to the
recommendation of the former super
intendent of schools, G. C. Starr. She
started in by correcting all errors in
grammar but since she was informed
that this amt no school, she has not
pushed the lessons in the proper use
of language.
He wasn't impertinent about it,"
Miss Johnston explained to State
Journal reporter. He just felt that
way
Notwithstanding the fact that the
school board refused to appropriate
money this season to defray the ex-
pense of Fairgrounds under supervis-
ion, hundreds of children, thanks to
the parent-teachers associations of the
Topeka schools who raised about S40O
through the presentation of boy Blue"
and otherwise. are thoroughly enjoying
play at Chesney park. the Grant school
grounds Willow park, and the Park
dale school grounds.
When the reporter visited the Ches-
ney park Fairgrounds q dozen boys
ranging from twelve to fifteen years
in age were choosing up sides for a
game of baseball of the Indoor va
tation to officiate as umpire. This
game is the most popular pastime at
the park among the boys, although
thirty different games have been played
by them this season thus far. The
girls prefer voIley ball as a rule, but
two or three of them are becoming ex-
perts at baseball.
Virginia Smith Baseball Star.
Virginia Smith who lives on Lane
street and whose father is street car
conductor is a star pitcher and when
the boys choose up for game, is al
ways in demand.
While the baseball game was in pro-
gress the small kiddies organized a
band-they always do Immediately !re-
ceding a real band concert in the park.
Hands and arms were transformed
into imaginary musical instruments
and the vocal sounds that followed
were weird.
There has been a lack of the usual
energy recently on the Fairgrounds on
account of the intense heat. Conse-
quently many games have been played
that require little exertion. The little
folks have amused themselves by CUT
ting out paper and making figures to
illustrate stories. Stories have been
read and told by the supervisor, Miss
Johnston, and four library books rave
who enjoy reading. Some of the girls
have brought their sewing with them.
Youngsters Sell Ice Cream
The playground equipment is not yet
complete and for this reason Miss
Johnston and the youngsters have
been given permission to sell pop and
ice cream while band concerts are in
progress in order to raise money for
the purchase of additional equipment.
The Topeka state journal., 1913-07-19

them to useful activities about the
home. and to stimulate them to under
take these activities.
THE playground is an appropriate
place for nature study, including gar
dening. The pupils should be taught
how to identify all the trees in the
community. Plants and flowers may
be named and observed, the birds
named and their habits studied, the
phenomena of nature observed and ex-
plantations made. Trips to the parks
will be profitable. The home work in
gardening should be directed from the
Fairgrounds. In the conferences top
les should be presented, such as pre-
paration of soil, the time and manner
of planting, cultivation, conservation
of moisture. combating plant enemies,
rotation of crops, and marketing.
Music and story telling will produce
an interesting and profitable variety in
the program.
An interest should be taken in the
home reading of the pupils. An in
qulry should be made as to what each
one is reading and some encourage
ment given to the pupils to undertake
reading along lines that are most pro-
fitable."

JOAN OF ARC PAGEANT
Ringling Brothers Open Regular Per-
forInance With Big Spectacle.

The sublime and dramatic story of Joan
of Arc has been made into beautiful
spectacle for the Ringing Brothers who
stage in the world erected in their main
tent 1t is offered as an Introductory to
thelr performance. It employs 200 char
horses and a trainload of special scenery,
costumes and properties. It cost $500 600.
1t will be seen in Topeka Thursday,
July "a.
The story of Joan of Arc should be told
to everv child. She was born on January
16 1412. at Domremy, a little village of
Lorraine. Her father and her mother
were simple laboring people. The girl was
brought up with her brothers and sister
in q little house that is still to be seen at
Domremy. SO close to the church that its
garden touches the graveyard. She was a
simple, sweet girl, loved by all for her
kind heart A brave worker, she aided
her parents in their labors, in the evening
spinning at the side of her mother.
One summer day when she was thirteen
years old Joan heard voice at midday in
her fathers garden. great light shone

upon her, and the archangel st. Michael
appeared to her. He told her of the great
mercy that was in store for the kingdom
of France, and announced to her that she
should go to the rescue of the Dauphin
and bring him to be crowned at Rheims.
This was just after the death of Charles
VI. had divided France into two great
factions. Joan hearing many arguments
among the men of the village, agreed with
the most of them in their hatred of the
invasion that had given the crown to
English king at Paris. Stimulated by the
united impulses of patriotism and religion,
she continued to hear voices. Her story
was noised about and men with money
came to her assistance. Dressed as a boy
she proceeded to Ch1non, where after
great, difficulty she was finally received
by Charles VII.
from this on the story of the peasant
girl reads like fairy tale. At the head
of the great armies of France she rode
through victory after victory. She con-
veyed the dethroned king back to Rheims
and restored his crown and defeated the
English under Falstaff, Talbot and Suf-
folk. The closing pages of the story of
Joan of Arc are too tragic for a drama
of gladness, SO the spectacle aptly ends
with the great coronation scene. At last
abandoned by all, even the indolent king
whom she delivered. Joan was taken to
the public square and burned on a charge
of witchcraft and heresy. The French

HIS GALLANTRy
Big Hat, Pretty Woman, Trav.
cling Man, All on Train.
He Stopped Train and She
Stuck Him With Hatpin.

ST. Louis, July 19.-Joe Butler, a
travelling salesman, fell victim to his
own kindness on a train from Chaplin,
Ill, to Alton near here yesterday. Here
is how it all happened:
Butler sat behind a fashionably
dressed woman. He was lost in
reverie of admiration of her millinery
creation. Suddenly the hat was blown
out of the window. The woman
screamed and turned to Butler with
tears in her eyes.
Certainly he would stop the train for
her (who wouldn't for the pretty
owner of such a pretty hat), so say
ing, he pulled the conductors cord
three times and the train came to a
halt with a jerk that threw passengers
from their seats. The train crew and
passengers rushed to the scene 10
learn the cause of the sudden stop.
Butler explained and the train was
backed half a mile to recover the hat.
Butler found it and restored it to the
woman. She was all smiles and graft
tude Butler was repaid-for the
while The train started again, Butler
sitting in the seat in front of the wom-
an The conductor as a precaution
against a repetition advised her to pin
the hat to a seat. In following his ad-
vice she either undereStimated her
own strength or overestimated that of
the plush covered seat.
The long hat pin went through the
hat. through the seat and into Buffers
back, an inch deep. 1t took the com
bined strength of the woman and the
conductor to pull the pin from his
flesh.
Butler left the train at the next
stop in search of a physicians office.
smiles could not carry him into a rev.
erie over hats again.

TIED To FENCE RAIL.
Woman's Body Causes Doubt Whether
Murder or Suicide.

Chicago, July 19.-Official investi-
CATION today of circumstances sur
rounding the death of young woman
whose body was found hanging from
a fence railing near Oak Forest, a
suburb, yesterday, indicated that the
woman was a Swedish or Norwegian
domestic servant, and tnat she COM
mitted suicide. An inquest will be
held this afternoon. The partial iden-
tification was established by letters
found on her person, written in Swed-
ish or Norwegian and Servants want
ed'' clippings from newspapers. The
only evidence which might indicate
murder was the fact that her watch
had stopped apparently before the
spring had completely unwound. Death
apparently was due to strangulation
from a strip of cloth in a moose around
her neck, and attached to the top rail
of the fence. She was not bound, nor
were her personal possessions includ-
ing several dollars and the watch dis
turbes except that the timepiece had
stopped
Her feet touched the ground but this
it is said by no means precludes the
suicide theory.
