HORSES SPEED
 APPRECIATED
 BY PEDESTRIANS

Neither Maude $. nor Minor Heir. in their long and varied careers engaged in a more spectacular burst of speed than did an unnamed dark" horse at tached to a Hackett delivery wagon, when he turned into Central avenue at Roosevelt street about II o'clock yesterday forenoon made the entire length of Central avenue south through the heart of the business district in a minute and a half less than no time at all, engaged a policeman on motor cycle and q patrolman in q racing car. in a wild chase and wound up by sur rendering with neither himself, other rigs or the pursuing officers much the worse for the exciting experience. | Just what started the horse on an unheralded and for part of the time nupaced. dash on the paved straight away, will never be known. It may have been that away back in his head runs the strain of Kentucky blue grass, and that ancestral achievements on grand circuits courses, inherent though i dormant, cropped out yesterday at an fnueXpected moment and the tempta- i ton to play to the grandstand' be- came dominant and sent him forth. It may have been the green flags, ribbons and Shamrocks with which his head stall And that he achieved victory all his own and demonstrated that the. horse is still king. is probably due as much to luck as to any reasoning of i his own.
 When the outfit approached Central avenue and Adams street Policeman Bob Anderson on his motorcycle was i approaching the same corner on Adams street. He saw the horse dash madly past and then giving his go-cart the gun, started in pursuit. Policeman E. ] c. Grove at Central avenue and Wash l ington. street, also saw the steed com ing and while his first impulse was to run out and wave his arms he thought better of it and communicated Paige racing car which was standing at the | curbing, with steam up.'
 Just as the racing car began roll ing Anderson dashed along and began gaining on the horse. Then the Paige buckled down and with Crowe hanging on to the tail lamp for dear life. went after the horse and the motorcycle. In some wav the car passed the motor cycle and then pedestrians on South Central avenue. who had failed to mo- tlce the horse as he went past, gained
 the impression that the motorcycle of
 ficer was chasing the racing car. They
 expressed the hope that the officer
 would capture the speed demons and
 make an example of them
 When Central Park was reached, the green grass, the fountains and the bud
 ding trees appealed to the horse whc by the speedometers on the car and on
 the motorcycle, was making 35 miles ar
 hour without much effort and hs
 tuned into the greensWard Even ther he moised about at q two minute cll luntii he found grass to his liking ant
 then stopped. He snorted little
 shook himself and began nibbling al
 the tender shoots
 As he had caused no damage neithel
 of the policeman, was willing to prefei
 charges against the horse

tural and individualistic has given way to the new conception that there two other needs quite as vital the old idea of culture namely, vocation and citizenship Furthermore, it has been learned that preparation for a useful vocation is cultural the study of text books which have practical relation to the future work of the individual The purpose, therefore of the school is to prepare youth for their callings in life for exercising their duties and privileges citizens, and for understanding and enjoyment of the fine things of life.
 Both and women need to be broader than the groove in which they work to their daily bread But that broadening education may be had more effectively in the study of useful than of useless things. There must be educational vertebral column Every child must be taught reading writing arithmetic the proper use of the English language geography the outlines of history and something of the physical sciences. Then there is a working basis and an understanding of American institutions.
 As the student passes from primary to secondary schools it becomes necessary to acquire broader knowledge of civic economic and social problems and the literature habits life of the peoples past and present.
 The vocational training go up gradually from grade to grade This is accomplished by fur nshng more and better instruction studies so that each pupil may with the help of his teachers and acquire that which is going to do him the most good in making his living.
 Every high school should be adjusted particularly to the needs of the community it In town supported by an agricultural community, it should give emphasis agriculture; in industrial town it should pay close attention preparing it's students for participation in the home industries.
 The education, in short, attempts to learn for what individual is fitted and then give that to him in the most helpful form The trouble here tofore has nsistence every student should be fitted with the sized coat, made of the same sort of material

The Contest Nearino the End

The present week will probably witness the close of the gubernational contest which was begun more than three months ago The end may come any day, A decision regarding the Douglas Precinct No count would dispose of the contest. Which ever way that decision may the side against which it is given will probably find it useless to struggle longer. It is generally understood that whatever may be result in the superior court the contest will be taken before the supreme court but in the meantime decision of the superior court will seat at least temporarily, the contestant or the conesee
 In the Douglas precinct it is alleged by the con- testee that at least forty cast for Camp bell were changed by election board either to votes for Hunt or were so disfigured that they be counted for neither Campbell Hunt. How many other votes might have been changed from mo votes to Hunt votes the attorneys for the conestee con tend there is no means of determining In support of their contention. they present three important facts One of these was the established inclination of at members of the board to commit such a crime; their financial interest in it's commission another thing was the ample opportunity to commit such crime and the third is the appearance of the ballots which passed through the hands of these men, one of whom is fugitive, and the other ill, either feignedly i'll actually ill result of fear of consequences of his work member of the cleo ton board
 Other incidents Of the count nave been rtlAleu by witnesses, such the drunkenness of these two men the fact that four members of the board were not qualified to serve it. the thoroughly partisan character of the board. These also undsputed facts upon which twelve witnesses. some democrats and some republicans agreed
 The testimony of an officer of the law, demo- cratic assistant county attorney, that he saw one of these two election officers handling the ballots in manner that aroused his suspicion is another item His testimony that one of these men. the who is now ill., within week confirmed his suspicion by his stricken out as hearsay The attorneys for the con- testee however assert that desirable this evidence may be it k essential; that there is enough with out it not only to warrant make necessary the iurificaton of the ballot by striking the whole precinct
 The attorneys for the contestant say that they can throw a different light the proceedings in Douglas Precinct No. l. but so far in spite of the damning facts sworn to- they have made effort to do so They seem to be suffering of paralysis luced by the disclosures. They evidently un- prepared for the shock they sustained from such a mass of non partisan testimony that laid before the court last Thursday.

Vocational Traininu

Two bills were before the legislature, one of them passed. enable the state to avail itself of the aid provided in recently enacted federal law for pro noting vocational education. Neither bill received great deal of attention We recall that either provoked discussion in either house. though probably the committees to which they referred and which reported them gave them due consideration. Both houses acted upon the reports of the committee.
 Vocational education is by means new It had been adopted perhaps in any school system but in many forward looking schools However. it's benefits at best only sporadic.
