Near Roanoke, Ills., near tbe center
of the state, there Is a schoolteacher
whose Ingenuity might not please all of
his pupils—that Is, the Indolent ones.
E. N. Wheelwright teaches a district
school, and In a district school, you
know, or perhaps some city children do
not know, the teacher has to ring the
bell and build the Are and sweep the
floor unless he pays some ambitious
boy to do It for him. But this teacher
does not have to hire a boy to ring the
bell, nor does be ring It himself, yet, no
matter what he may be doing at tl
o'clock in the morning, that bell sets tip
ft clatter that no boy or girl can escape.
Mr. Wheelwright has arranged a clock
which at the proper hour sets In motion
an electric apparatus that puts the bell
to ringing. Thus the boys of thnt dis
trict have no longer any hope that the
teacher will be so engrossed In some
task that he will forget to call school.
The bell rings also at 10:45 a. m„ 1 p.
m,, 2:30 p. m. and at 4 o'clock.—Chica

A SOUTHERN BEAUTY.
Aa Alabama Girl Who CaptlTfttai
Washington Society*
In Birmingham, Ala., the other day a
party of people were discussing the
question of beauty.
"The most important feature Is the
nose," declared one.
j "No; the eyes," cried another. "The
expression, the coloring," iusisted a
third. The room was divided. There
i were those who voted for a beautiful
figure, a lovely throat, a line head, a
clear skin.
"A real beauty must have everything
nowadays," remarked a connoisseur,
j "It isn't sufficient for her to have a
beautiful head if she carries it badly.
Of what use line shoulders if she
stoops? A real beauty must have per
fection in every feature."
i In the midst of this dissertation some
! one in search of a subject upon which
all might agree asked suddenly:
"Who Is a beauty?"
j There were 24 people In the room, 24
lof Birmingham's representative citi
zens. The conversation took place at a
dinner, so half the guests were men
j and half women.
I Now, the remarkable fact for which
this conversation has been retailed
! happened. They all agreed.
I "Florida Graves!" answered an en
; tliusiast.
"Florida Graves!" echoed another,
MISS FLOHIDA (IBAVKB.
and without a dissenting voice Florida
i Graves carried the vote.
! There arc those farther north who
I will agree with the selection.
Miss Florida Graves is Washington's
j newest beauty.
She arrived there this winter unher
, aided and quickly established herself
j as a reigning belle. To Mrs. Bankliead,
wife of the Alabama congressman, was
j given the pleasure of Introducing her.
The Birmingham beauty became a
Washington success. Senators, army
j officers, diplomats and millionaires con
tributed to establish her fame.
Besides beauty site has a rare fund
of sympathy and a love for art. The
latter is most evident to her admirers
and friends when she plnys the violin.
For a woman she plays unusually well,
with fire, with strength. She lias stud-
I ied under the best masters In Europe
and America and perhaps her most
' beautiful moments are revealed when
she has close up ngalnst her neck the
smooth wood of the Instrument she
loves.
Zealonn Utile Housewives.
j A school of domestic economy at
Bcthnal Green, London, carries o(T the
I palm for enthusiasm among Its pupils.
The school Is built and finished In im
itation of an English worklugman's
cottage, and the poor little girls of the
district are taken In and trained to be
capable wives for worklngmen.
The school has been a great success
and Is always crowded to Its full ca
pacity, but either the ordinary routine
work must be deadly dreary or the
pupils' zeal must be monumental, for
the records show that scrubbing and
stone cleaning are dealt out as re
) wards to deserving little women.
When a pupil has been extraordinarily
j good, she is allowed to scrub a floor or
I blacken a stove for a treat.
! After all, the theory may be sound.
I Both kinds of work are delightfully
! messy, and inesslness undoubtedly ap
j peals to the youthful mind.

THE SPORTING WORLD.
.jimmy Rynn, who for 16 years has
boon a member of the Chicago Base
ball club, has at last left the Windy
City for good ami become part owner,
manager, captain and center fielder of
the St. Paul team of the Western
league. George Lennon, who secured
the St. Paul franchise, will be Ryan's
partner. At the close of last season
Ryan stated that he would not play an
other year with the Chicago club; that
he was sick and tired of all the squab
bling that had been going on these j
many years.
By the departure of Ryan Chicago
has lost one of the most brilliant
players who ever wore a uniform. Al
"BKNATOB" JAMES BY AN.
though 10 years lu the big league, Ryan
played as good a game last year as
ever. Ills batting might not have been
quite so good, but when hits were !
needed he made them.
In one respect Jimmy Ryan held all .
left hauded fielders safe, and almost
all of the right hauded ones, too, for i
that matter. In a throw to the plate
he was as accurate as If he carried the
hall to the catcher. This is remark
able. Fielders who throw with their
left arms are seldom sure. The ball
takes varied shoots ami Is almost as
liable to go to the third or first base
man as the catcher. Not so with Ryau.
He could "hand the hall" to the catch
er from any part of the field. Ills arm j
was strong, too. and many a runner j
who attempted to score on ail outfield
fly to Ryau was "burled" nt the plate. 1
Harvard's New Itowlnjr Tank.
Harvard has a novel rowing tank, |
which Is the result of faculty anil col
lege study, and Is a marvel of Ingenui
ty. By it the Harvard oarsmen have
almost perfect rowing exercises and
training Indoors. The scheme Is the de. ;
velopment of Professor Iloilis of the j
engineering department and chairman
of the athletic committee and his class. I
He put the subject before his class as |
a problem.
The scheme Is based on the idea that
the water iu the old rowing tanks of- |
fcred too much resistance and dead !
weight. Professor Iloilis and his class
could not make the boat shoot ahead to
lessen this resistance as a shell on the
river does, so they have arranged pro- I
pollers run by electric motors nt tlie
bow of the "boat," with supplementa
ry tubes and innehluery, so that the i
water rushes by the boat at a good
late with the oars.
Beneath the boat are a pair of circu
lar, deflecting planes, so that the wa- |
ter returns under the boat after pass- i
ing down the sides.
The Imaginary boat, or support for
the eight Bllding seats, is placed in the
center of the tauk. The water rushes j
from the bow, down tlie sides to the j
stem, so that the meu pull with it, and j
goes back under the boat.
As a result of this, the men are pull
ing with tlie moving water. Naturally j
they pull faster than the water, so that
there Is resistance to the oars, and the |
harder ami faster they pull the more
the resistance. In the same way, when j
a shell Is rushing through the water,
the men are pulling water which is 1
rushing by them in tlie same direction !
as this tank water.
The tank Is of concrete, <>3 feet long '
by 20 feet wide. It has 30 Inches of
water in It. The seats are on a rectan
gular wooden box, supported from the
bottom.
Basket Unit's Growth.
Basket ball in the colleges lias enjoy
ed an unprecedented growth this sea
son. This is not merely true because
Vale, Harvard, Princeton, University
of Pennsylvania, Columbia, Cornell,
Dartmouth, Huckncl] and State arc all
In line, but It is general throughout the
country. All over the New England,
eastern and middle states the colleges,
with but few exceptions, are taking an
active Interest In the game. A great
majority have representative teams,
and In the remainder the sport Is con
fined to lnterelass games. There have
been disadvantages to overcome In or- ;
ganlzlug representative college teams i
which do not apply to any of the other
college sports.
Tlie principal one is that the use of
the gymnasiums for practice by such
teams can be had only at odd and In
convenient times. Without plenty of
opportunity for team practice a team
cannot hope to make a successful
showing. Then again the game had
not been officially recognized by col
leges prior to this soason, the same as
other sports, and this in itself caused
many of the most promising men in
the colleges to refrain from taking part
in the game. This difficulty is gradu
ally being overcome, and it seems to be
only a question of time when goneral
recognition is bound to come, as is evi
denced by such action on the part of j
Harvard, Princeton and Cornell with- I
in a comparatively short time. This
moans that ere long there will be Inter- j
collegiate games between teams repre
senting the big colleges, the same as in
football and baseball. In fact, some
games of this character have been
played quite recently, nud more are
scheduled to follow.
Lord Cutzou calculates that the fam
ine has cost about "50,000 lives in In
dia. though a much smaller number
died directly of starvation.
