There will be no election ol teach
ers for the ensuing year made this
evening, as - wa first planned. Ab
sence from the city of 'several 'di
rectors necessitates a: postponement!
until tomorrow night when the mat

iness, is to be done, it Is not thought
likely that the entire corps of teach
ers will be selected at that time, al
though an effort will be made to do
this.

ransacked' them ail It wssn't la any
of thorn. : '1 searched the floor, but
there was. nothing there. 'At last I
gave it up and paid my fare.
"My wife laa very economical wo
man and considers" me the perfection
of carelessness, I kuew if I told her of
my loss she would scold me for both
wastefulness and carelessnes. 1 made
up my mind to get on the best I could
for awhile, paying my fare out of the
loose change I carried till the end of
tb9 'month,, when I would buy a new
ticket it was no use. , A few morn
ings after my loss as I was going out
my wife gave me the customary kiss,
at the same time bundmg me my bat
She looked Inside snd.uiot seeing the
ticjj0ti fQt f0P
;, " 'Why. dear,' t she ' exclaimed. '1
t thought you always" carried your com
mutation ticket In your hat.'
"I was obliged 'to. confess I had lost
It. My wife said: 'T told you so. If you
had kei)t It In vour nocketbook. ns J
always advised you to ao. you wouldn't'
have lost It. There a 124 gone.' enough1
to buy me a spring hat with three big
ostrich feathers.
I hurried away, ostensibly to catch
the train, but really to escape's scold
ing, and since it would be cheaper to ,
commute even with the'toss of four
days than to pay single fares I bought
a new ticket. I kept It In my pocket
book in' my hip pocket , with u lot of
memoranda, cards, etc., my cash for;
daily' expenses being In my vest pock
et I had no trouble for a mouth, when
I bought another ticket On tbe 4th, of
the month when I was getting ready
to go to the city I clapped my band to
my hip to make sure my ticket was
there; and. behold, portemonnale, tick
et and allren gone. Somebody muRt
i have picked my pocket
-"1 thought my wife would cry.' 'Fif
ty; dollars gone in two, months.' she
moaned, 'We're going right down Into
the poorhonse. Why will you be so
careless? ,..'. ' ; v.
If I'd kept it lfll my hat" I snap- .

put It where you told me to put it and
there you- are.' . . '. ' ' '
."Go and buy another one, she said.
'We can't afford to have you spending
forty or fifty dollars a month to save
''Well, to make a long story short, in
Bit months 1 lost five commutation
tickets. What bad brought about such
bad luck I couldn't rM. I'd commuted
for eeven years ,and never before lost
. a ticket. Thinking some one might be
