In the Former Case Jury Censures
Electric Liffht Company While
in the Latter Jury Disagrees
A large gathering of persons from thia
(dare and Spring Lake were attracted to
tlM Chamberlain hall on Ninth avenue
Monday afternoon, when Prosecutor John
S. Applegate, jr., conducted the inquests
of the killing of WiUaid Palmer at tbe
Twelfth avenue railroad crossing last
week, and that of Walter Hailey, the 9-
jrsar-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest W.
Bailey, wbo met a sudden death by grasp-
ing a live electric light wire which was
dangling- from a pole in Spring Lake on
November 26.
lo the latter case the jury soon brought
In a verdict censuring the Atlantic Coast
Electric Light company o f Asbury Park
for the fallen wire by which the boy was
killed. After being out two hours the
jaror* in the case of Willard Palmer, re
turned to announce that they could not
agree I t is understood that live of the
Jurymen were of a similar mind but that
One held out persistently to views with
which tbe.otbers could not accept. Cor
oner Purdy may empanel another jury
and conduct another inquest.
Witnesses were sworn to show that the
wire with which the boy came in fatal
contact was down Wednesday night, two
daya before the accident occurred, and
Superintendent Jacob G. Campbell of the
% h t company could offer no explanation
fo r the failure of the men sent out trouble -
banting Thanksgiving day to find and re
pair the fallen line. The superintendent
wnt Inclined to believe that the wire was
down on account of work done on the
pqle by telephone company linemen who,
be said, had worked on the poles the
day previous to the accident. Mr. Camp
bell said the company received no in
formation concerning the wire until after
the boy had been killed. According to
ghe testimony of N. J . Sherman, who,
while going to work early Friday morn
in f, kicked the wire out of his path and
left it hissing and spluttering in the
now, it hung down along the Passaic
avenue path, touching the ground be
tween two poles, in such a position that
one might run a band along it while
Walking the path. He and other* told
of a small piece, two or three inches
long, bared of insulation, where it is
■apposed the little boy received the fa
tal shock. Sherman wanted to tell some
one of the wire as a warning but it was
»0 early he found no one up and had to
hurry to his work.
No one saw the boy killed but Ar
thur Montgomery, a colored man, who
drove along on a coal wagon about thc time
it was he, who, mindless of his own
danger, pulled the little body from the
wife. The youngster was clutching it
tightly with both hands and one thuinli
several fiugers th&t had been burned
nearly through came off wh£n Mont
gomery parted the dead body and the
fatal life wire. The colored inan said
he was so excited that he did not notice
until afterward a shock he received when
he took hold of the boy’s body.
In the verdict the jury, returning uhile
the Palmer inquest was under way, found
that the Uttle boy was electrocuted by u
live wire that sagged between two poles
and that the wire belonged to the At^n-
tic Coast Electric Light, Heat and Power
company. The verdict continues, "We
censure the said company for their failure
to locate and repair said wire, which had
been broken for at least 36 hours."
Testimony in tlie Palmer ease tended to
show that the young man approaching the
crossing from the east could have seen the
train approaching from the south for at
least 200 feet before he reached the cross
ing. Approaching from thc west side the
crossing wa* said to be dangerous! but ap
proaching from the east, as was Palmer,
there seems to be every opportunity for a
clear and forewarning view of a train
north-bound. Thomas Fenton who saw
the accident, said Palmer’s horse was on
a trot but that it slowed up to a walk just
as the engine struck the wagon. Fenton
nor others nearby at the time of thc acci
dent heard any whistle from the locomo
tive, but the engineer—Charles Mason,
tnil hi* fireman, John Lovett, and thc
conductor, Walter Durling, each swore
that the whistle was blown aa a warning
to the wagon, which Mason said he saw
approaching.

Trespassing on railroad property in v i* -
latlou of the law, has been responsible for
the deaths of 47,416 people ia the United
States in the last ten years. In the same
period more than 50,000 trespassers were
injured. It is in view’ of these facts lhat
many of tlie important railroads have .de
termined lo redouble tbeir efforts to secure
in this country that rigid enforcement of
tlie law against trespassing, which iu Eng
land has reduced the practice—and acci
dents to trespassers—to a minimum. The
number of people killed while trespassing
on railroads has been increasing every
year. In 1898, 4 ,00 trespassers io t th?ir
lives on American railroads; five years
later the number was 5,000, and in 1967
the number killed was 5,612—more than
1 j a day. These figures are taken^from
the annual report of tbe Interstate Com
merce Commission. Figures compiled by
thc Pennsylvania railroad alone show that
16a trespassers lost their lives on that sys
tems line iii 1B99; 7SI were killed in ivol,
while in 190? the number reached *»1. —an
average of almost three for every business

January 1, 1 exactly » ,240 people, who

was out of o f order according to his vein

Mr. Hutchinson a member of the com

stating why be and the other mem
bers of the committee were in favor of the said engine He said that the com
mittee have visted several places, going
as far as Albany, N. Y. They saw the
workings of many engines, had tbe differ
ent parts explained and demonstrated to them, and of alt the makes tbey viewed
they favored the Improved Button for the
reason that they thought it the most dur

ter as did Howard Hoffman who accom
panied the committee on its visit to Cam

UJohn, I wish you’d do me a favor."
an Fred abruptly, “and I promise (althfully not to impose on your good

i “ Unless by proxy," interposed
(Thornton.
, “Exactly, and if you'll only help m e
out to-night, John, I 'll never ask such

» "W ell— yes,” answered Thornton,
reluctantly, “ that is, i( Mariau sub

irite waa terribly ‘put out' the other time, and made no effort to conceal
her displeasure
j “ I must please Annt Sarah, John,
and you know why,” retorted Fred,
Irritably, “and you aiao know that »he disapproves of Marian.”
i “She wouldn’t 1( she knew her,*
retorted Thornton, warmly. Then
(rith assumed indifference, he said:
i “Who i« thia Miss Gordon? De
scribe her."? “She’s a New York girl, but I can’t
describe her, John. She’s dazzling.”
Thornton looked quizzically at
Benton, then said, seriously; i “1 hope you’re not (ailing a victim
to Miaa Gordon’s charms. Fred. You
know what a susceptible (ellow you
are. I t would break Marian's heart
I I you ahould desert her."
“ I hope I ’m not auch a brute," gnickly retorted Fred, remembering
k pair o( brown eyea, tender and
bright, that fcsd (or aome time held
him a willing captive, and vowing to himself -that nothing would ever
tutke him (alae to Marian. Aloud
be said: “See you. later, and lot you
know what Marian saya.”I After leaving Thornton's office, he
lent a hurried note o( explanation to
M arian theh settled down to his ac
customed work.' Reaching home at laat a(ter a tiresome day he (ound
Miss Gordon more (aacinating than
wer. The evening was an enchanted
trac, and Fred found his aunt's guest
Irholly irresistible.
| As the days went by Marian re
ceived (ewer calls and more and more apologies, until, at last, they ceased
to be necessary. Fred did not allow
* himself to think of his unmanly treatment o( the girl who had been so
dear to him, and was blind to a ll
future consequences. He also went
less (requently to Thornton’s office, for Thornton’s evident disinclination
|to discuss Miss Gordon irritated him. r One a(ternoon, arriving home ear
lier than usual, he (ound Miss Gor
don at the piauo, singing. Fascinat
ed, he stood in the doorway and .watched her, and she, catching sight
o( him , nodded and smiled Invitingly.“ Katherine, sweetheart," he said,
■o(tly, going towards her.Instantly, the (rlendly smile van
ished, and rising, she said in her coldest and haughtiest tone:
“ Did you speak to me, Mr. Ben
ton?"
Bewildered and Intensely mortified,
Fred left the room in a storm of in- idignant love. He resolved to return ito Marian and to (orget the tantalizin g woman who had allured him (rom love, (rlend and business.
ThaC evening (ound him waiting Again in the little parlor where he
^iad so o(ten waited be(ore, and he (hoped that Marian was as miserably
unhappy as himself. She was much (longer than usual in coming, and
jwhen she did come it was hard to
believe that the was the same Marian. The shy, trusting girl who used to jblush beneath his ardent gaze met Itim to-night with a cold serenity more
ga lling than reproach. She treated jhlm with snch polite indifference that
jthe eloquent speech he had prepared .was (or got ten.
| As the clock on the mantel chimed
ithe hour of 8, sbe asked h im to excuse her, pleading an engagement..
'As she moved toward the door, Fred reached it first, and said:
"Surely, we are not to part like
th is, Marian. Let us (orget tbe past few weeks, dear. You know you
love rce, and— "“I do not love you, Fred Benton,
broke in Marian, emphatically.
“Since when. M arian?”“Since I found you unworthy of
my love. I learned to love you and I have also learned— to despise you.
“ Is there no thought of the past sufficiently powerful to make you
more k ind?”“None, Fred,” ahe answered, sadly.
••Remember that there are wrongs a woman never haa a memory tender
enough to forgive. I could never

put his fate to tbe teat, aud although
his hope was almost confidence, atlll
ho hesitated.At last the desired oppbrtunlty ar
rived. Katherine was sitting before the open fire, gazing Into the (lancing
flames aa If she would read her future
tbere.Inspired with a desperate courage,
Fred eloquently pleaded his cause As she listened, Katherine’s face
wore an incredulous smile, which
gradually changed to a look of sorrow.
I ’m sorry for you," she said in
answer, “ but I 'm engaged to Mr,
Thornton.”“To John Thornton'" exclaimed
Fred ln astonishment. “ I didn't know
that you knew each other."
“ We met at Marian Richards'," re
plied Katherine calmly.Fred looked at her In helpless be
wilderment.

If we are sincere, we ought not to
overlook the (act that the scholar, as
such, has no position in public opin

o( hia achievement, and to the mental
energy which he needed (or It. The
foreigner (eels at once this difference
between the Americans and the Eu
ropeans. The other day we mourned
the death of Simon Newcomb. There
seems to be a general agreement that
astronomy Is tbe one science ln which
America has been in the first rank ot
the world, and that Newcomb waa
the greatest American astronomer.
Yet his death did not bring the
slightest ripple o( excitement.
The death o( the manager o( the
pro(e88ional baseball games inter

lic opinion did not show the slightest

greatest scholar closed his eyes. And

Peddler to Peach King.
Down in the State o( Georgia they
bave peach orchards where one can
walk a mile in a straight line and not
get beyond the end o( a row o( peach trees. After the Civil War any one
could go through the same country and see nothing but cornfields. Now
more peaches are produced on the
Georgia soil than ln any other portion
of the United States, with the possible
exception of California. This revolution In horticulture was brought about
by a Connecticut Yankee. J. H. Hale a3 a boy began his start in life by
carrying fru it and truck in baskets to
Hartford, Conn., and selling It (rom
house to house. He finally accumu
lated enough money to plant a Uttle
orchard ot his own In tbe suburbs ot Hartford on ground that people said was unfit (or any crop. Hale thought
differently, and when his orchard
grew (rom an acre to over a hundred
acres an9 bis income (rom the peaches to thousands of dollars a
year, they realized that they had
been mistaken.— Bookkeeper.

One evening, after being driven out
from under tbe "Overland L im ited,"
we climbed Into a box car loaded wltb
lumber on a 'freigh t going Bast We closed the door, and after pulling some ot the lumber against lt In
auch a fashion that the brakeman
looking for a rake-off (a dollar tax
levied on tramps by train crews) couldn't open It, we laid ourselves upon the lumber. Soon the train
began to get under headway, and at
each jo lt ot the trucks, up and down, sideways and croasways, tbe lumber
would (ollow suit, only a little harder,
as be(ore it had time to settle, a(ter
each jo lt, the next one would send lt flying again Into the air.
Poor Bobby! This was his first experience as a boi-car tourist. He

were hitting him , but this ride was B
new experience, and he groaned: “ Oh,
A No. 1, 1 wish we £ould get out of
this forsaken old rattlebox. Let’s
get off at the next stop and take the
Overland." He kept on bothering me so much that I had to tell him that
in tho deserts passenger trains make
mighty few stops, and that we m ight
have to wait a week or longer a t a
lone depot be(ore we could catch an other ride; and tha t coyotes would
make short work o( us should they
catch us after dark. Only by thus
scarlne him could I persuade him tp
wait until we reached the end of the division. The very next day, after
being driven off at a lone water tank,
we were forced once more to take a
freight car.
We (ound this one loaded with
large lump coal. Here poor Bobby suffered agony, because the coal, be
ing packed solid to the floor, exactly
responds to every jo lt the springs ot the car make, and as this kind ot a

Sleeves have a decidedly fuller tendency.

The waist line has been lowered but the tiniest bit.
Tho cuirass gown has seen ita best days and is on the wane.

Eyelet embroidery has more or less takeu the place of net for blouses.
Small bows are replacing the large ones for tying the young girl's hair.
Lynx, black fox and pointed fox are
best tn small furs for general wear.
Glace gloves w ill be worn more
than the suede with evening costumes this season.
Jet trimm ing upon frocks of sapphire, hue is one of the many variations of the hour. .
The large hat is being restricted to dress occasions; small hats are in sway for all ordinary wear.
Skirts, while cut on broader lines,
still retain more or lesr the sheath
effect. The sllhoutee is almost ex
actly the same as it was last season.
Coats are still semi-fitting, but the
cut has changed. Tbe backs are narrow and flat and the skirt of the coat
is almoi£ as close-fitting as the dress over which it is worn.

Salt as a Medicine,
I have in the past seven or eight
years found the advantage of putting
a little salt in all the water I drink.
I also put a little salt, with sugar and
m ilk , in every cup of tea, coffee or
cocoa I use.
I have been a resident in the trop
ics (or over (orty years, and exccpt
(or a sprained ankle have not had oc
casion to call in a doctor or to take any medicine in the last thirty years.
I believe every one's health in the
tropics would be vei? much better if
he used more salt. I find the benefit
of drinking a tumbler of cold water
with a little salt In it every morning
on rising at about 5 o ’clock, before
m y bath or cup of cocoa, which I usu
ally take between 5.30 and 6.
I f people could be induced to try
the easy and cheap method of taking
a little common salt with the water they drink they would in tbe general
ity of cases find that they would sel
dom require other medicine.— F. Kf. Burn, in Chambers’ Journal.

CHRISTMAS THOUGHTS
Christmas is upon us. It is the fes
tiva l of the home and the season when
the hearts of the lathers are turned to
the children and the feet o f the ch il
dren turn back to tbe homes whence I
they went out. Little ones hail i t s ,
coming with exuberant gladness, and
older people enter into its festivities;
with subdued pleasure, in which mem- j
ones of home behind and hopes of the
home ahead are strangely mingled
with present joys. W hat a time it is
fbr cultivating domestic affections and
invigorating the virtues which root
themselves in these loves! Whence
came our Christian homes? They are
not found in pagan lands—dwelling
places are there, but not homes. Nor
are they found in lands where Chris
tian iuflnences are feeble and Christian
institutions are formal— there are
lodgings and eating houses. The idea
of home comes from him who, though
homeless upon the earth, hath set the
solitary in families—from him of
whom the whole family in heaven and
earth are named.
Accordingly, at this season our
doors should be wide open to his com-1 ing in , and nothing else admitted!
which would shut h im out. He knows |
bow to enter in a festival occasion, I
and sympathizes with human joy as!
really as w itl^ human sorrow. H is
presence at our feasts w ill not dimin- j
ish their gladness, but exalt their sat- i
isfaction. And now; while merriment |
reigns in all our homes, let us invite
him to sup with us. Let the children
play with the babe of Bethlehem;
among them, while the angels of Beth -!
lehem sing over them. Let the youth
ful keep company with the earnest'
obedient boy of Nazareth. Let them
who come into the Christmas season i
out of life's busy cares cq'nie apart I
with him to rest awhile umf be fed by
his hand.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last, few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu- ional di.sease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F . J . Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the ' only constitutional cure on the market., It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acta directly on the blood and mucous .surfaces of the system. Tber offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.

The New Postal Cards
Designs for the new postal curds to be
issued by Ihe government have been ap'
proved by Postmaster Hitchcock. The
cards will be furnished to the postoffice
department by the government printing
office, in accordance with u contract ef
fective on January f, 1010.
On the ordinary card the head of the
late President McKinley appears,
now, but a much better likeness has been
selected. On the new .small curd, intend
ed fo;* index purposes and for social cor
respondence, a likeness of President Lin
coln will appear. The 2-cent Internation
al card will bear a portrait of 'General
1 Grant.
An innovation has been nude for the
double, or reply, postal card. On the
| first half will appear a purtrait of George
j Washington, while thc stamp on the sec-
i ond, or reply bulf, will be a likeness of
| Martha Washington. The borders of the
j stamps on all of the cards will be diver-
j sified in design.. On ull the cards the
words "Postal Card,” required by the
Universal Post Union Convention, will
appear on the borders of the stump, and
not, as now, as a separate inscription.
The paper to be used is the best for the
purpose yet manufactured. It will be
more attractive thaii the paper used in
the present cards and will "take ink" bet
ter than thp paper now employed.

Long after Carbia had hurried
away, hot and happy, Glynde and Hll gay stood silently looking in to theli
■lasses. The waiter twice came io to
clear them away I t w m on the stroke o f 12, and he waa keen on
nothing but bed.They called up two hansoms.

"This is the first time you and I are
not going to be pitted against each
other, after a ll."“ No. and It's the flrst game yon and
I have ever drawn.”In Glynde's heart there was a feel
ing of great compassion for Hilgay,
and in H ilgay’* a feeling of great compassion for Qlynde.— Richmond
Tlmes-Dlspatch.
By COSMA HAMILTON.
Qlyode and Hilgay, whose friendship puts that of David and Jonathan
.to the right about, were fated to be
pitted against each other in every-
thing.They cemented their friendship by
blacking each other’s eyes when
Glynde was nine and Hilgay ten,
They both played cricket. .Hilgay’s
most brilliant Innings (or Cambridge
were stopped at 99 by a magnificent catch by Qlynde, of the Oxford eleven.
Naturally enough, it came to pass
tha t Qlynde and Hilgay fell In love with the same girl. At least, that is
only my way of putting i t Glynde
and Hilgay would tell you. lf they
liked you well enough to discuBs the
matter with you, that they were in
love with tbe only girl in the world. Men in love are never accurate.
There was, to both of them, a touch
of tragedy about this last coincidence. They were dining ln town together
on an off evening to see the “Man of
Many Collars," a t the Alhambra after-
wards.W ith something of blatancy Hilgay
had said, “ Jack, I'm in love."
Jack Glynde put down bis cigar and
turned very pale.
“ I don’t believe you. I t ’s— it ’s absurd."
‘'Absurd? Good heavens, why?"
said Hilgay.
“ Because I am , too, and we’re dead
certain to be in love with the same
flirt*A little chilled silence fell upon the
two men. For a moment they sat
looking at each other, superstitious
horroT in the eyea ol both. Neither
dared to ask what was her name.Qlynde waited for Hilgay to give
the name and H ilgay for Glynde. At last they made a simultaneous move
ment. Their theatre tickets were in
their pockets, but, with that tacit
understanding which dan only exist between bosom friends, they turned
away from the Alhambra and made
for the Embankment. Each felt that
air was a necessity. The Embankment is the only place in London
where it can he found.
For a n 'h o u r , arm-in-arm, they
paced the flagstones. Sometimes Qlynde’s hand would close hard on
Hilgay’s arm, as though to say,
"Whatever happens, old man, nothing
matters,” and sometimes Hilgay would squeeze Glynde's hand tight
against his riba, and Glynde knew
tha t be was saying, “Whoever she is,
old man, we are pals to the end." I t Is well said that the love of one man
(or another passes the love of woman.
These two never really knew wbat the ir friendship meant until the
woman came into their lives.
W ith a sudden inspiration Hilgay took out half-a-crown.
“Heads or tails, Ja ck ?” he said.‘•Heads!” said Jack,
Teddy Hilgay uncovered. I t was tails.
“You must tell me her name, old m an,” he said. Glynde cleared his
throat, took Hilgay’s arm , and started
walking away from the Embankment a t four miles an hour towards the Oxford and Cambridge Club.
On the steps of the club Glynde made a mighty effort.
“Enid Allerton," he said, and then looked sharply round at Teddy. He
saw a wave of blood fly into his face, and felt his arm tremble.
“Good L ord !” said Hilgay.
“Why, what’s the Joke? W hat’s your girl's name?”
“Enid Allerton, ' said Hilgay.
“ Good heavens, isn't the world largo enough for us both?" Glynde's
face was twitching and his eyes
biased. “W hat have we done? W hat’s the matter with us? W hat’s wrong
w ith the world? Why, in heaven’s aame, should we always come np
against each other? Do you hear? W hy tbe blazes can’t you fall in love

“ You can’t ta lk ,” he cried furiorifely. “ You blacked my eyes, and won the
beastiy cup. Surely to goodness that'3 bad enough, w ithout your crop

long way. He suddenly caught Hil- gay's calculating eye.
And then Teddy ran over Jack.
“Not a dog's chance againat a man like Jack,” thought Hilgay. “Look
at tbat nose, those eyes and that hair
— and the way he tana is simply im mense. By gad, too. I never noticed
before what awfully decent hands and feet he’s got."
Thus both men sat, running up a
long list of the other’s .qualifications which each considered’he did not possess.
“ Who is to propose flrst?" aald Glynde abruptly.
“Spin a coin,” said Hilgay.
Glynde laughed. “ W hat? Even In th i* case?”
“W hy not? We’ve always done it hitherto."
“Very well, old man. And If you
win the toss, I wish you all the luck I know you’d wish me.”
“Thanks,” said Hilgay.

Entertaining a Prejudice.
Of th- occupations known to jnen, entertaining a prejudice Is the most absurd. Yet the practice is almost universal.
Tbe prejudice is usually uninvited. He comes in quietly, remove*; his ha t and coat, saunters up to the guest chamber, and prepares to become a permanent feature of the establishment You entertain h im royally, strain him to your bosom, exhibit him proudly to every one, fight for him , defend him, and perpetuate him . You do pot even adm it that he la present. “I entertain a prejudice?" you say, with becoming ooncern. “Never!"
Birds of a feather flock together. I t there {ore happens that if there is one prejudice present, there are others. They always come In unawares, and take their places silently and unobtrusively. But ob, bow tbey hang together in an argument!
A group of prejudices is invincible. They have never been beaten.
The strange part of prejudices is .that one would th ink they would prefer more commodious quarters. But no, tbe narrower tbe mind, the more content they are. They don ’t m ind close quarters. The closer the better.
Prejudices are always busy. If they are not tampering w ith oue'i, eyesight, they are screening the m ind from the open; putting blinds on, and making it dark enough to sleep in comfortably.
A man can get Insured against almost anything else but prejudices. He can insure himself against flre and water acd loss of life and accidents and depreciation in his property. But there is no company so fortified tha t it would take the risk of Insuring against prejudice. And then no man weuid ever th ink o ' taking out any insurance against one, because lie would never admit that he had it. Tbe prejudice himself fir.63 that. Tbe first thing he does is to make tbe man thin!: he isn’t there.
That is why prejudices, co matter how much damage they cause to character, are never evicted. They have come to stay.— Lippincott’s Magazine.

A man called Carbis came in wearing evening dress and a bashful grin.
He had been at Eton with Glynde and at Christ Church with Hilgay. They
both disliked him intensely. For all
that, he was a very decent chap, playing tennis w ith the best of them, and
sang songs like an angel with a sense
of humor.
“Hallo, you chaps."
"H allo ,” said Glynde and Hilgay together.
•‘Jo lly night, isn’t It? "
“Jo lly ,” said Glynde.
“Very jo lly ,” said Hilgay.
“You two chaps look jolly, too,
I was much amused one day while examining the ducks tha t hung In
front of the stalls of Fulton Market,
New York."What are the redheads worth, a
pa ir?" I asked the clerk.‘Five dollars,’* he calmly an
swered."And thoae?" I continued, point
ing to a pair of flsh-eatlng aawbllls.
"Ob, those are river redheads; only
a dollar a pair, sir."I think that same clerk must be In
Toronto, for as I walk our principal
streets I see numerous pairs of these same "river redheads.” I t Is worse
than cruelty to animals to offer these evlMastlng mergansers to the public.

camera and gun, notebook and"%barp
appetite. There is a fearful contest
in these nature-study trips of ours.
There is the strong merciful desire to
let all the feathered game pass w ith
out giving toll to the hunter. But, then, one cannot with any relish or
benefit live on the beautiful pictures
we obtain of the web-feet, so a few
And their way to the camp table.
Since we lost sight of the northern
migration early in May we had not
seen a redhead. They had gone far
north, by the marcby shores and on
the tufted prairies that edge the
Great Bear and Great Slave Lakes,
by the lonely Providence and Walms-
ley Lakes, where only the Beml-an-
nual passages of the Hudson’s Bay
men or the rude canoe of the Indian
trappers disturb the scene. Most of
the birds were mated ere they left
these southern lakes. Tbey had lin
gered on the migration, held by the
immense submarine beds of wild cel
ery that carpet man yof our frontier
lakes.
To them the springtime in Canada must be a season or beauty. A ll the
old fam iliar Jakes and rivers, ponds
and bays, untenanted by tha t fearful
animal tha t each fa ll breathes forth
flre and smoke, and stinging wounds
and broken limbs from every clump
of flags, marshy point, and thick rice
beds. I wonder what theae birds
must think of man. I have seen
them feeding calmly on the lake
when the deer came in to drink. I
have watched them edge slowly away
when cattle suddenly emerged from
the cover, but let a m an step into the
scene and the silky gray wings soon
bear tbe bright red heads and snowy
canvasbacka of the birds far ofT into
safety.
Hawk, the Mississaugan guide, a l
ways confused this breed w ith the
real canvasback. I had to point out
to him one day tbe different forma
tion of the head. The latter bird’s
bas a long, sharp curve from head
crest to point of b ill, whereas the
redhead has what you m ight call a
high forehead.
It was late In September before the
first of these lordly birds arrived on
our southern tier of lakes. Our camp
had already pictured and flhot the
early bluebills, and my cameras were
set and my canoe concealed awaiting
their return. H igh overhead I heard a mighty rushing, tearing sound, as
if a great flame were surging above
me, tben the noise took on a rumbling, rattling note tha t made me
think of distant trains or farmers’
wagons passing over rough roads.
Again it rushed and whistled, surged
fort on that low-lying shore to hid* me, and to ereet(,a placo of conceal
ment for the camera*. AH waa done ere the light was clear enough to a*« the margin ot th* lake. V could
hear the birds arriving and settling far out. 1 knew their habit*. They
Intended to swim slowly in. Then
when they were certain that no enemy lingered near they would bask in
bappy content on that sun-parched
sand strip.The mass of birds did not like my
brush heap They a ll Bwam slowly past me and tipped up and dived for
the tiny particles of sand they use for
aid to digestion. The jrhole bunch
either squatted on the shore or slept on the calm water mithlu a hundred
yards of me. Patience always brings
Its own reward. One great drake,
with hia Ted head fairly aflame, under
tbe brilliant rays of the April sun,
his canvas back glittering like a snow
patch, his eyes shining like yellow
pointa of jewels, took a modest position almost out of focus; once when
he raised his head in alarm I shot the
machine. H is haste to leave that
sunny shore was neither graceful nor
becoming.Once tbe seemingly insatiable maw
of the camera is satisfied the guns
and our interior departments call
loudly for w ild ducks, and there Is no
family among the twenty-four that
visit this province tba t offers better
sport than the big redheads. A t the
first of the season they are unusually
foolish, decoying to anything. 1 have
seen them curve down t| several
black pieces of wood that were cur
rent-swept from the river bog, but as
the shooting days shorten there is no
bird more wary. That rich call of
theirs, "Ki-yak, ki-yak,” the low pur
ring notes they uao when in close comradeship, tbe wonderful diving
power they possess— this is uncannifir
strengthened when tbe b ird is wounded. O f all the water snakes to
chase, a wounded redhead beaFe the
palm. The legend of them clinging
to the weeds below and drowning
themselves is all rot. W ben the
wounded bird, ln ita intense desire to
escape ita pursuers, dives beneath
tbe surface, it opens ita wings, and,
aided by these, used almost aa ln
flight, swims rapidly along. The
hooking of the wings in this subma
rine work offera a flne place for weeds
to lodge on. The passing bird drags
tbese from tha lr moist rootage if she
can. I f not, ahe endeavors to shake
them off. I f the poor bird i8 unable
to do this, ahe drowns tbprc— weed-
entangled.
Fritz brought in a very choice bag,
nine redheads, a big enough day’s
work for any man, but I fancy that
the natural height of the lake was
raised by the outpouring of ahot, as
I would hardly dare to tell you how
many ahellB the fat boy took to h ill

‘bide” reminded me of a steady bat

in fact, the word shell has a rankling
effect on his happy nature. Once, in
days gone by, when he was greener
than he is now, I had secured a lucky
point, and had some very fair shooting, but as I was just about ou t of
ammunition, I signalled for Fritz.
He came with all the caution of the
amateur hunter, making a noise like
devastating wind ln tho brush.
Then I called for a couple of hand
fuls of shells and waved him back
Into cover, as I saw the next flock ap
proaching. Fifteen minutes later,
just as I had rammed the laBt two
shells in to my gun, I heard his fat
voice gasping, "Here they are, s ir !"

I forgot to mention tbat the incubus of the trio, Fritz, was asleep in

Dr. J. A. Anderson, professor of
astronomy In the Johns Hopklus University, in giving hla view* regard
ing the statement made by Professor W illiam Henry Pickering, of Har
vard, that the planet Mars can be
communicated with by a sat of mir
rors, said:*•1 really do not think tbat Profes
sor P ickerings statement has been
received In the light that it waa intended As It stands, It is perfectly
plausible, but as for th* actuality of ever communicating with tbe planet,
aa M Camille Flammarlon aays, that
is another question.“ I t la highly poastble to construct
an arch of sufficient intensity to con
vey a beam of light to Mars. A light
aa strong as that of the sun jrou ld
carry to the planet, so that if we can
construct a reflector strong enough to send sunlight in .Us original
strength through the heavenr, the
problem so far will have been solved.
"W hether or not there would be
anybody or any form of life on the star to signal us back again is an
other question. There fa certainly
no evidence now of any auch a fact.
W hile the theory of the planet being
habitable l a , generally accepted,
whether, it Is inhabited bas never
been solved, and at present there are
no indications that it will be solved,
a t leaat ln the near future."Supposing the planet is inhabited,
although the concensus of opinion *
here Is negative, is it logical to sup
pose tbat the Martiana would be
ready to take or notice a message
just at a time corresponding to that
wben it was sent from the earth? Aa
Is well known. Mars is practically the only planet that ahowa any signs ot
being physically habitable. I t has an
atmosphere of ita oyn , and. more
over, is capable of being studied, which cannot be said of Venus, which
is even closer to the earth. That
planet’s face ia never seen, being cov
ered with dense clouds. I t Is not known what the temperature of Mars
may be, or whether or not It would
support life. Professor Everett Lowe ll, director of Lowell Observatory,
haa done much work on the study of Mars, and has reached the conclusion
that It la both habitable and in
habited."This is a question which may be
Bolved in the future. but-SQ far as
Professor Pickering's recent state
m ent goes, 1 w ill say again that I
think It has been taken tP mean more than its author intended, exceeding
the scope of ita patent plausibility.’'

By GEORGE W . ALGER.
A grim ly humorouB illustration of
one of the results to the litigant may be found in another New York law
suit which reached a final chapter
recently in the Court ot Appeals. It was a complex case against an insur
ance company on some policies of in
surance. and each time It was tried It
took from a week to two weeks’ at»
tention of court and jury. Owing to
reversals and new trials ordered by appellate courts, it had to be tried
nice times. I t was in the courts from
1882 to 1902. The plaintiff became
at last so sick and disheartened with
his interm inable law suit that he
abandoned it, reused to go to his
lawyers to consult with them about
it or to appear when the case was
being tried. The lawyers has themselves spent over $4600 on fighting
the case, and had worked on it tor
nearly twenty years. Their client
having abandoned them, they settled the case for $30,000, and took the
money tttemselves for their fee. The
last chapter of the litigation was an
unsuccessful attempt by the receiver in insolvency of the plaintiff to make
the lawyers give up some of thetr fee
to their client's creditors. How much
the twenty years' delay ln the law
suit had to do w ith tha t insolvency
it is impossible to say; but such an
outcome, to the lay m ind, seems hardly satisfactory as a result of twenty
years ot litigation, of nine trials, and
seventy-two days' time of over a
hundred jurors.— The Atlantic.

It la eatlmated by stsUstlcisoa io
ths Department of Agriculture that there ara hauled anauaUy over tho
1,1(1.090 mils* of public roads is ths United State*. more than 8ft© million Iona ot freight *o average of nine
milea, a t a coat of tweotr-flve cents
por ton per mile, amounting to more
thao 660 millions of dollars Aa ths
coat lu some forelgo countries, where
good rosds are the rule, is estimated
to be only from eight to twelve cents
per mile, attention ia naturally called
to the element of absolute wants of energy and imbalance, without compensation
Take the waste aa being one-half of
the amount paid, and it amounts to
over 280 millions of dollars, whleh
would be saved.by the existence ot good roads. W ith our population of
80,000,000 people this loss amounts
to $8.50 for every man. womau and
child In the country every year, or a
handicap to our citizenship of $100
per capita.
It la further found tbat good roada
appear to have a strong effect on the educational qualification ot the peo
ple. In four StateB with a high per
centage o f good roads (30,65 per
cent.) the percentage o f white illit
eracy Is only 0.34 of one per cent.,
while In four other States which have
few good roads (1.51 per cent.) the
percentage of white illiteracy ia 4.76 per cent. I t may be claimed that the
relation of cause and effect may bo
an Inverted one, but whether bad
roads are the result of ignorance, or Ignorance the .result of bad roads, the
fact remains that they are closely
allied.
I t is Invariably the case, when a
good road is constructed through any section o f agricultural country, the
farms begin to assume a finer and better aspect. Buildings are painted,
fences renewed, better horses, vehi
cles and farm machinery are pro
cured, and the farm houses and
farms take on on atmosphere ot thrift and prosperity. I t may not be
putting it too strongly to assert that
the means for this advancement
comea from the saving made in mar
keting the crop. A small farmer may
have of crops which he sells, thirty
tons to*take to market. His supplies
i may amount to six tons, making thlr-
j ty-slx tons in all for a year. At the
j average distance of nine miles at
] twenty-five cents per ton per mile, the
cost will be $81 for the marketing of
; the year. I t can be readily seen that
; when good roads are constructed,
and a ha lf of this amount saved, a
good deal of paint can be spread and
many elements ot Improvement pnt
into operation. When this is done
the social natures ot the people begin
• to develop and a broader and a better intelligence results.— Good Roade

The Cost of Administration.
In the building ot highways much
attention must always be given to
the economy of administration.
There is a tendency on the part of
, some newspapers throughout the
country to criticise this department
| of tbe work, but they rarely give suf
ficlent data for tho formulation of
reliable statistics.A recent publication states that in
a certain State a "careful examina
tion made from the orders issued for
a period of one year, shows conclu
sively tbat only sixty per cent, of the
appropriation was actually expended
on the roads, the other forty per cent, representing, tho administration and
supervision.” This amount seems en
tirely out of proportion. Many prac
tical road makers figure on a profit of ten per .cent. In contracting, and
an amount equivalent to fifteen per
cent, to cover tho expense of engineering, supervision and all incidental

Vocation-Teaching.
By W ILLIAM T. M ILLER. 1
In every high school there shorn it
be a vocatlon-teaeher, whose duties
m ight be briefly outlined as follows;*
Before the opening of school every
new pupil must have a private Inter
view with the vocation-teacber on the
subject of his ideas for the future.
Some have a pretty definite idea of what they want to do. If their tair
ents agree wltb th e ir desires, the vo- cation-teacher gives them permission
to elect the courses that will put them
on tbe right track. I f as is so often;
the case, the new pupil has no idea
of his wants or capabilities, the vo-
cation-tearher tries, by Questioning
and experiment, to assist the pupil In coming to some decision aud getting
upon the right track* I f for any reason a decision is temporarily impos
sible, the pupil is given a selection of
courses designed to be of some practical value in any line he may after
wards take up.jW hen the actual school work Is
unde*way, the vocation-teacher keeps
in touch with every pupil toy
means ot continued personal Inter
views. in whleh the pupil s increasing: Interest or growing distaste, as the
case may be. are discovered. Besides this. written reports ot progress
and expressions of opinion are due a t regular ' Intervals from the pupil.
When the pupil is losing iutereat, the
vocation-teacher may ordef a new choice of courses; he may even advise
the pupil's transfer to &n entirely d if
ferent kind of school. This supervision Is to follow the pupil closely through the whole cou*e .— The A t
