We sincerely hope Prof. IngersOlPs
optimistic anticipations for the flu
ture of his new symphony orchestra
will not meet with disappointment.
We will go further than that and say
that We believe they will not in spite
of the difficulties such enterprises al
ways encounter in their earlier eXper-
fence.
The task undertaken by Prof Inger-
soil is a formidable one. Ii differs in
many respects from an ordinary bust
ness proposition or commercial or in
dustrial enterprise since it will draw
for its support upon the artistic taste
o fthe community rather than upon
its physical or mental necessities
No man can succeed alone through
his unaided efforts in such an under
taking. Even Theodore Thomas the
greatest Of all orchestra leaders Of the
present day. with the populous and
wealthy city Of Chicago to draw upon,
would have failed but for the aid. 81
enlargement and cooperation of indi-
viduaIs who enlisted the interest Of
the city and impressed upon the
minds OF the community the vital i'm
portance OF maintaining the orchestra.
1t Will be proud thing for South

Prof. IngersoH will be satisfied with
In the beginning but which he Will be

rich and strengthen as the years go
by. The ENTERPRISE IS placing the city
IL the way Of . rare opportunity. The
cities that have orchestras of note
may be counted on the Gigits of one
hand.
Such aid and announcement as
can be given Prof. Ingersoll in this
laudable enterprise should De freely
offered. II will be a good investment

up such an institution.

THE GARY SCHOOL SYSTEM.

Something akin 10 amaZement Is the
sensation caused by reading how the
public school Of Gary is conducted.
There is only one in Gary. In other
cities of the same class there are sew
eral. But that is only one Of the
amazement creating. things about the
Gary school.
Perhaps less than any other this
economic feature is attracting the at
tention of the country. New York
city has adopted the plan in a modi-
fed form and is giving schooling to
10000 children for whom room could
not be found under the old system,
and Philadelphia has offered Supt.
Writ, the originator of the Gary sys-
tenn $4,000 year to go there. But
Mr. Writ is not going. He prefers TO
stick to his work in Gary.
The thing about the Gary school
that amazes most is its adaptability to
the pupil. The schools made for the
child The child is not distorted and
tortured TO fit the school 1t is more
like a manufacturing industry than
like a school in the common under
standing OF what a school is-an in
dustry that manufactures what it's
trade demands instead of forcing that
trade to accept something just as
good.
The idea is that the school should
supply whatever the child needs out
side of it's home and give IL no excuse
to seek elsewhere for what it wants.
and TO provide a place where the child
would rather be than any other place
except home. Ii makes school the
very thing boy or girl wants, not
merely what they need.
The system devised by Mr.. Writ is
in it's infancy. 1t may have defects
which have not become apparent, but
it has all the symptoms Of a successful
means of getting the best out Of the
material provided

NOTHING Is IMPOSSIBLE.

The discovery in the arctic regions
of what may prove To be a continent
has caused speculation as TO whether
II will ever be any practical value
10 mankind. But the comment has
not gone beyond speculation.
Prudent people have ceased to de-
clare anything impossible. So many
predictions of this kind have been ov-
erturned and demolished that 1t is no
longer safe 10 venture beyond specu-
lation. There is a long period be-
tween Benjamin Franklin and the
electric motor. 1t would take a long
stretch of years to span the gap be-
tween Morse and the telephone 1t is
a long and slow journey from the
horse drawn vehicle and so on in
definitely.
But in these later years develop
ment is more rapid. The base has
been moved nearer the field OF opera
ton through development. The eli
mate Of the canal zone has not been
changed. but the zone has been made
beautifully habitable. Somebody has
even ldlheu dpOul CuduBlnS the COul Sc

York the capital Of the arctic circle,
but no one really dares To say it can
not be done.

produce more certain and profitable
crop OF something just as good. or
it may be chock full of gold and sill

Another mile, and We were at the
edge of the strip OF Jungle. Jacks
brow grew dark-his lips tight set
his dark eyes were fixed upon some
thing half hidden in the bush. "A
fresh kill he said at last: done
today, not ten hours old. We ought
10 get this fellow now, if we ever dc"
The hounds came up, and as they
shifted the evil scent their hair bris-
tied along their backs. Then Star,
the biggest and boldest of the Ior, led
out, with the others following
through the jungle. and then their
quayering chorus rose until the whole
woods echoed with the din of the
Wild chase. The jungle was thick
and the going difficult Jack went on
ahead with the cutlass. for the tangle
or vines and creepers made IL i'm
possible to force a way without con-
tinually welding il.
The hounds had evidently stopped
short, for we could hear the whole
pack, not fifty yards ahead, while the
wailing and clamor that smOte our
ears assured US that just beyond.
in that intricate and tangled mass of
almost inconceivable thick cover
that savage, crafty and powerful
lord, the American tiger, was facing
the pack. At this ill-timed moment
Jack leaped back, nearly knocking
me to the grounds; his face went
white
Shoot" he said. for he was carry
ing nothing but the cutlass. 1 saw
nothing TO shoot at but a second
glance revealed a coil of a dozen feet
of the most dreaded of all snakes

looking reptile appeared so enraged
at our intrusion that an attack
seemed almost certain. But in his
moment of hesitancy IL was averted
by giving him an undisputed right
OF way and changing our course, for
L did not wan to shoot at that mo-
ment, fearing that the report might
spoil my opportunity just ahead-for
which 1 had come so far and which
seemed almost within my grasp.
The moments were precious now;
the baleful chorus of the hounds
warned us the quarry was within
stones throw; yet we could see moth
ing. Then my eye lit upon some
thing that held me for a long mo-
ment arrested, motionless. Close
along a Dough. its ears fiat against

From between their wide lids his
eyes blaZed into mine, as l raised my
gun TO my shoulder took careful
aim and fired. The claws relaxed
their hold; slowly the great body
rolled over and fell into the midst
of the frenzied pack. But, before L
could take a forward step. the huge
cat had leaped to his feet-I had
aimed too high; the bullet penetrat-
ing the upper part Of the shoulder.
Into the wild melee / dared not fire,
though my soul sickened at each
lightning stroke of those terrible
paws.
AT last my moment came-for an
instant the dogs drew back. Before
they could again rush in. my second
bullet crashed through his brain.

Chapter v.
The iron horse commenced to eat
up the miles, and then gradually the
lowlands Of grass. and occasionally
there were what looked like islands
OF trees in the midst OF a quivering
sea- A feeling OF great JOY came
over me as / looked far away into

long, i had felt penned up, and now
that feeling had vanished. Then an
other little thrill came over me as
the landscape brought back pleasant
memories Of the old days on the

We'll. there is a big tiger KILN
his stock out at the ranch. and he is

Some one closed the gate with a
bang and swung down the path with
long strides. Then Jack Haley came
up the steps, three at a time; and
we'll he might, for he stood six foot
six in his socks. He was 1.-the, we'll
