THE GREATEST BLUNDER OF MY

In the Crerar Library, Chicago, is

"My greatest blunder was when I
left school in the fifth grade."
5. "The turning point in my life was
when, at fifteen I ran away from
home."

THE PLUM CREEK
TRIOT.
Uncle Dan had come up from the
country to spend a winter vacation
with his city nephews and nieces.
Some of tho younger members of the
family, says the Chit ago Tribune, had
been relating a school episode, which
put Uncle Dan In a reminiscent mood.
"That reminds me,'' ho said, "of tho
teacher we had down In the Plum
Creek district three years ago this
winter." Then he went on to tell tho
story.
She was a mighty pretty girl, ami It
wasn't nioro'n a week before every
young fellow in the county wus shy
ing round trying to mako up to her.
! They took her to all the church soci
j ablcs, and one or another was always
I waiting for a chance to walk home
. from meeting with her.
: Sho linally seemed to give up all of
I them but Tom Hammond and Kill
; Higelow. Then it looked as if she
: didn't know which of 'em to let go.
What made it more interesting was
! that Tom and Hill was tho worst kind
j of enemies. They'd both licked all
j the other young fellows around there,
j but somehow they'd never got togeth-
or themselves,
Finally they was to be a spelling at
the school house, and some way it got
i noised about that Tom said ho was
! going to give Hill a walloping if they
i met there that night. I guess nearly
j everybody in tho district was on hand
when they commenced choosing sides,
: and the little teacher up on the plat
form looking her prettiest.
Dill and Tom got spelled down be
fore they'd been ut It long, and slip
ped out. Everybody know tho light
would bo started right olT, and all ex
cept the ones that were still spelling
lispped out. When I got there they
were at It good and hard, and pretty
soon they went down with Tom on
top.
Kverybody was so excited that no
body noticed when or how the teacher
got there; but the first thing any ono
saw, she'd got through the crowd with
a bucket of ice-water, and poured it
all over both of,, 'em.
The fight stopped quicker'n a wink,
and when they stood up she told 'em
they were rowdies and rullians, and to
shake hands and beg each other's
pardon. Well, they did It, and she
asked everybody to go back in the
school house.
U hen things got quiet she said. "I
understand this fight was on account
of me. I hate fighting and I despise
fighters. If there is any young man
in this school house that never had a
fight in his life, let him stand up. I'm
going to ask him to take me home.
Every fellow In the house but Tom
and Hill stood up. When they all
set down again she said they was on
ly one thing she hated worse'n a fight
er or rullian, and that was a liar.--She
rode home with Deacon Swusey
and his folks.
IDLENESS IS POISON.
Arthur Hrisbune, the talented and
forcible editorial writer of the New
York American, In a recent article
setting forth the vices and follies of
royalty, gives utterance to the follow
ing striking and truthful sentences :
Man's mind is so constituted that it
must have work to do to bo normal.
Idleness produces mental and moral
Idiocy.
What Impels such men as the Crown
I'rince of Saxony to do foolish and
brutal and empty things Is exactly
what impels some sons of some Amer
ican millionaires to drunkness, dissi
pation, gambling and Imbecile amuse
ment. It is what impels the sons of noble
men In F.ngland to hang around the
stage doors of music halls and marry
disreputable actrosses.
It Is what impels other people to
monstrous and absurd display to have
"Vegetable l'arties" and eccentric
balls, to fritter away the hours with
employments that have no possible use
but the killing of so much time.
No man feels right in this world
that has not something to do, some
thing that the world wants to have
done and something that has some re
lation to the world's progress.
Any man that stands all dav In a
switch box In the railway yard at
Dresden, throwing levers back and
forth and switching trains, Is Infinite
ly more honorable than all tho titled
Idlers In the world and infinitely more
Important.
After awhile the man that doesn't
work will be loathed whether he is a
millionaire or a trump. After awhile
tho man that does work will be the
only honored man, whether ho saws
wood or fires a locomotive.

bus companies. Although as
yet it runs only across Paris in a
comparatively straight six mile
line, it has already made a heavy
cut in the omnibus revenues; j
when it is finished, the bus's occu
pation will begone. Asshowinga
strange side of of French nature
and French law, it is curious to
note that the bus companies have
brought suit for damages against
iu-
toe ivieiro.
The Paris buses do not always
stop for passengers, even when
not full. Sometimes they cannot
stop, owing to the mass of ve
hicles behind them. It is a piti
able sight to see a forlorn female,
one arm full of bundles, her skirts
gathered up in the other hand,
trotting through the mud after
an omnibus. If sho reaches the
platform, the conductor helps
hoist her up. But he will not
help her down if the bus is mov
ing. Last week a woman brought
suit against the General Omni
bus Company for damages as a
result of injuries in alighting
from the bus while in motion.
She maintained that the conduc- j From its original owner it passed
tor aided her to alight. The con- j to another Virginia gentleman,
ductor swore he did not: that it j and from him to James Ormond,
was against the rules; that pas- i then residing at Newburg, N. Y.
sengers might alight while the j From the father it passed to the

attempting to alight while the j served. It is not fancy; on the
bus was in motion, he would be contrary, quite plain. It ha a
discharged. Other omnibus con-1 round ton. about fifteen inch in
ductors swore to the same effect,
and the woman failed to get dam
ages. The carriage companies, as
well as the omnibus companies,
are being affected by the compe
tition of the Metropolian. The
Paris cabmen are now quite de
cent, and will take their legal
fare and a reasonable tip with
out insolence. The Exposition
charioteers, the haughty cabbies
of 1000 these you no longer find.
Gone are those purse proud Je
hus who, when you offered them
double fare to take you half a
course, would reply: "Allez-vous-en.
Bourgeois" ("Aw, gawac
go chase yourself, old man'r"),
call you a "species of cabbage."
and apply to you other oppro
brious vegetable names.
The autos have also added to
tho means of transportation about
Paris streets. I think each auto
must do the work of at least four
horse vehicles. They are driven
very rapidly, and if any fat man
wants exercise all he need to do
Is to live in Paris, and he will get
It dodging autos. However, the
authorities are becoming stricter
with the auto men. Finding that
the rich ones do not care for
fines, tho law officers have adopt
ed tho plan of giving fast auto
drivers one franc fine and one
day in piison. This is much
more effective. A certain Mme.
Sarah Greville, who recently ran
over a child, received such a sen
tence. Her friends attempted to
get the President to pardon her
in order that she might be spared
tho ignominy of the day in pris
on; they told M. Loubet that sho
"felt real bad about it." But the
President remarked dryly that
sho probably did not feel so bad
ly as tho woman whoso child she
had run over, and ho allowed her
to serve her sentonce.
By the way, it has hitherto
been tho French custom to hold
tho pedestrian responsible and
the driver blameless in case of a
collision.
a Priceless relic
op the revolution
In Carnegie there is an article
that played a very prominent part
in the independence of the United
States, says the Pittsburg Chron
icle. This piece of furniture Is
nothing more than an ordinary
wooden table, but upon it was
drawn up a compact which ended
one of tho greatest wars of mod
ern history and which was des
tined to make great changes on
tho map of the New and Old

Then the old table played its

brought forth, and upon it a docu

Kev. Mr. Ormond, its present

five years ago his father had a
complete history of the table,
which he was about to publish,
but just before the manuscript
was completed tho house took tiro

destroyed except this relic, which
was saved with difficulty.
STATES SHORT OF TEACHERS.
While in New York and most
Eastern cities there is a constant
rivalry among applicants seeking
employment as teachers, North
and South Dakota reports a
dearth of teachers in both says
the New York Sun. The condit
ion is described as a "teacher fam
ine" in many rural districts of the
two States, partly due to the in
crease in the number of schools
and classes, and partly to the
large number of marriagesamong
the schoolmistresses. The teach
ers were sticking pretty close to
their hard tasks until the settlers
began to move in in large num
bers. Many were bachelors.
They did not long remain so. Fol
lowing marriage there was a
dearth of teachers. This card
was tacked to a schoolhouso door
in Hyde county, S. D., in a town
in which it had been impossible
to get a teacher from February 1
to March 1.
TEACHERS WANTED.
If single must be old and un
attractive as two wealthy
bachelors threaten to mar
ry the next teacher of this
school.
There were at tho time of the
last school census 4083 teachers
In North and 4440 teachers in
South Dakota. Ono thousand
teachers in each are men; the
others, 3000 and 3100 respectively
are women. There is a steady in
How of population Into tho two,
especially into tho rural districts
and a few years ago, when the
hardships of travel for emigrants
were greater than Jhey are at pre
sent, the number of children re
quiring primary instruction was
small.
At present the demand for fe
male teachers in North and South
Dakota Is much greater than it
has been at any previous time,
and the favorable business oppor
tunities offered for young farmers
explain very readily why the
ranks of the female teachers are,
bo to speak, "decimated by marriage.
