The election iu the Boro Tuesday
wis something of surprise, but It
should riot be olassed as partisan
victory, bot rather as so indication
that people here am beginning to
consider their upper ends a good
.for something else than hat racks,
and conoluded to one their best judg
ment In selecting officials. Buch 1
condition is hea'ttiful and when per
slated on will eventuate in belter
local government. A ,prly trode
mark should not bo an open sesame
to offloa holding. Fitness and the
desire lo faithfully and conscientious
ly perform the duties pertaining to
it should guide the voters in making
selections It Is a good sign when
such aeutimeiils prevail. The- penple
of the town bavo entrusted theii
' publio affairs to a set of men choten
by them. They buve cotfUled the
, interests of the boro to their bands
and It is .up to these officials uot to
betray the trust in any manner.
Let them shuw by their acts thn
they are woithy of the cwihMeiice re
Dosed, and strive to Improve in
every way with all possible economy
the physical and moral conditions 0
the Boro. Nature has lv;shed In
bounties here, let that generosity he
supplemented b.' making anch mat
erial improvements as will aid in
adorning the town aud making it
mom oomfurtable and attractive, fc
doing the officials will merit np(ic
' batlon. Xf they do not turn tiiein

Some are saying the school board
now will be tied between Democrats
and Republicans. I', will uot be
tied in any other way than in an ef
fort to promote thd beat interests of
the schools and to nff.ird every boy
nd girl in the district the best pof

tion They are entitled to this ad
vantage and, speaking individually
as one member of the new board,
they shall have it to the tawt of oar
ability. We have no persoual tnler

How They Were Curiously Discover
ed and Retnraed to Their Owner.
- Ten 1,000 franc bank notes, repre
senting the savings of a woman who
Itv-ed jBt Maiiterrre. near Paris, were
hjdden br her In an old envelops,
vhlch waa placed in a drawer. 1 In a
auanent of forgetf ulues the envel
ope found Us way Into a dust bin.
In the morning the ragpickers
turned out ihe bin, but tossed aside
the tattered envelops without Inspec
tioa. 8om carters happened to pass
that way. They picked up the now
mud splashed piece of paper, one re
marking to the other: "Perhaps
there is a fortune Inside!" They
drew out the notes. "This Is eome
fool's pleasantry," they said; so by
way of revenging themselves on the
unknown Joker and not believing
the notes were genuine tbay tor.
them to pieces and threw them aside.
, Two market women came along
only afterward. Wiu the shrewd
ness of their class tbey recognized
the scattered pieces of paper and
gathered them up and took them to
tb. Commissary of Police.
. There they were pieced together
and it was found that none was
missing, rwo hours later the notes
so curiously discovered were restored
to their owner.
A Large Profit.
Life is t matter of adjustment and
not of circumstance. The financial
affairs of the old watercress man In
James Greenwood's "The Wilds of
London" were as large and seemed
lo him to be of as much moment a
are the manipulations of the Wall
titreet broker. The watercress man
was a crippled old Londoner who had
been a soldier in his younger days
snd who, at the time ot writing
numbered seventy-six year.

Urant of nigher stducatlon to Wo
men Marks !eep Change
In German Life.
German homes and German news
papers have been far more occupied
with the Prussian's Uovernmet's de
cree granting higher education to
the women- than by discussions on
German and British naval arma
ments. The granting of educational
opportunities for gtrls and women
equal to those of men is regarded at
marking a- deep change in German
life, where, more than in more west
ern nations, women have been con
sidered as the keepers of the home
aud the workers In the minor Indus
tries. The - Introductory paragraphs of
the decree of the Ministry of Edu
cation, which has been approved by
tbe Emperor, recite the reasons for
the change in the system. Modern
life, says the decree, develops an
increasing disinclination on the part
of men of the upper classes to mar
ry, and more girls In the upper and J
middle classes are prevented from
becoming wives and mothers. It is
desirable, therefore, that the sur
plus of young women should have
a chance of preparing themselves
for professional callings, and that
they should he trained in tbe higher
mental functions.'.
According to the scheme, girls are
to be educated in all studies em
braced In a. specially arranged cur
riculum, beginning at a minimum
age of six years. At the end of tb.
seventh school year the -pupils will
begin to differentiate in their stud
ies, those preparing for advanced In
struction having special courses laid
out for them, such as Latin. After
two years they will again b. arrang
ed In divisions, classical or modern
higher studies respectively. Then
after four years' work they will, un
der normal conditions, be admitted
to examinations for matriculation to
the universities.
Up to this time their education
will have been carried on In separ
ate schools, but In th. univeslty co
education will begin under condi
tions similar to those governing men
students. ' Those who at th. end of
the seventh school year do not elect
to specialize for a university course
may continue the ordinary courses
until they reach the age of It. after
which they may leave school or taks
two years In modern languages, mu
sic and domestic accomplishments,
or they may take four years' special
training as teachers.
This scheme hss been under dis
cussion and preparation for a y.ar.
There has been an agitation for
equal privileges for the sexes since
the early eighties, aud most of th.
other German States hav. already
g.-anted them.
Krau Heleue Langs, the noted ed
ucationalist, baa been a leading ad
vocate of this Intellectual emancipa
tion. Prof Adolf Harnack of the
University of Berlin said that wo
men now have equal rights with
men to enter all the technical
schools, with the exception of the
art academies, and that this prohi
bition is likely soon to be removed.
