It does seem strange to mo that
our Board of Education should re
ject the applications of such teachers
as W. C, Hursh, Charles Cortrigbt
and Miss Raningo. No vote was
taken on tho applications of the

of tho Board to favor tho teacher
preferred by the trustee of the school
applied for. Tho first named teach
er was favored by the local trustee
of two schools he applied for nnd
yet a member of the board succeeded
in having those schools declared va
cant, merely on personal grounds,
As the teacher referred to, I think
it unjust to allow personal matters
to enter school matters. Compe
tency is not regarded, only lay the
teacher on tho shelf, so to spenk, to
gratify tho feeling of a member of
the board.

TRAMP IS GRATEFUL.
J.eft a Snug Little Sum in Cash to
His Benefactor.
An Inslnnee la Which rimrlty Fnn
av Qnlek nnd tienerooa Reward
Old ntnnMi TarceJ Contained
t)at iiaalc Flutea.'
Mrs. Err ma Carpill, of Omaha, en
tertained an angel unawares.
Prompted by sympathy, she gave
food nnd shelter to a supposed tramp
the other day, and when, a week later,
he died In her house, she found herself
sole benefieiury of his oral will, which
nieant a snug sum In cash more than
she could have made by keeping board
era In ten years.
An oral will is not valid under the
Nebraska statutes, but thus far there
have been no rival elra to contest her
claim, and the present indications are
that she will be left in undisputed pos
session of her windfall.
One evening during the recent cold
spell a poor wanderer, bent under the
burden of his years, called at Mrs.
Oirgill's home and asked fora bed. He
was wenk and sick, and his voice trem
bled nn he said:
"I have been trying ell dny to find
Shelter, and they all turn me awny, be
cause they think I've got the small
pox." As there was a peculiar rash on the
Itranger's face, Mrs. CurgiU could
tasily believe this.
"And I ntn ill," be continued. "God
will reward you, my good woman."
Having nothing but the stranger's
word that his ailment was not small
pox, Mrs. Cargill took him In, gave
him a bed on the lounge and such light
nourishment ab he was able to take.
Then he hnuded her a parcel wrapped
In a coiled newspaper and tied with
greasy string-. It looked much like
a package of old letters.
"Keep this until I get well," he said,
"and if I never get well if I should
die keep It always."
This was the stranger's will.
Placing the package on a window
sill, the incident, for the time being,
passed from her mind.
lniring.the next few days the patient
spoke but little, but Mrs. Cai gill man-
MRS. CAROIIX BEFRIENDED HIM.
aged to glean from him a few facta.
Bhe learned that his nnme was J. W
Myers and that he was 7G years old
He had never married. From his
brothers and sisters, of whom he had
six at the time he left Connecticut,
he had not heard in 33 years, and he
believed they were dead. During his
early manhood he had been wild and
later had kept much to himself, having
lived for the Inst five years the life of
a recluse on hU homestead near Lamar,
la. When sickness came he converted
his property Into money and started
for the city, intending to go to a hos
pital, but observing that his malady
was likely to be mistaken for small
pox he altered his plans. He dreudfd
the pesthouse, he said. He wanted to
"die like a Christian," so avoided the
authorities and made a house-to-house
canvass in quest of a Good Samaritan,
whom he at lust found in the person of
Mrs. Cargill.
On the seventh day after his arrival
at the Cargill home J. W. Myers died.
Mrs. Cargill notified the coroner, and
while she was gathering his effects
preparatory to a removal of the body
she chanced upon the greasy package
on the window sill.
Bhe tore it open with languid inter
est, which soon gave way to a thrill
of excitement, for the parcel contained
$1,000 In treasury notes 100 ten-dollar
bills.
Out of this sura she paid the old
man's doctor bllla and funeral ex
penses and the remainder she has de
posited in a bank. She says she hopes
no heirs will present themselves to
claim it, as she wants to use it in
the education of her little daughter,
eight years old, who has displayed con
siderable talent in music.
Ills Honor Cracks a Joke.
A doctor in Coleraine, Ireland, wai
sued for damages for the death of a val
uable horse be had treated. It was
shown that he had administered to the
animal 12 grains of some powerful
drug, and the plaintiff insif ted that the
medicine had caused death. The doc
tor declared that he had frequently
given eight grains to a man, and that
four grains more were not too much
for a horse. The judge Skked:
"Wouldn't 12 grains kill the devil him
self if he swallowed them?" "I don't
know, my lord," replied the doctor; "1
never had hirn for a patient." "That's
evidently true, doctor," responded the
Judge, "for the owld boy is still alive."
