TORNADO DRILLS IN KANSAS.

We hnvo fire drills in our publio
ocbools in tbe enst, nnd very effective
drills they have proved in more than one
chrc of emergency. In Kansas they
have no firo drills, or, if they have, we
have still to bear of it. Out there tor

beinp trained in tornado drills, says tbo
New York Sun.
When tornadoes strike a Kansas
town everybody niabes at once for
prairies. It is the only way to escape
death from flying doors and chimneys,
failing trees and toppling buildings.
Schoolchildren are trained toltnowthis
from tbe cradle, and on these occasions
rush pell niell for the nearest bit of
clear prairie attainable. Hut many
children have been maimed and even
killed in these terrible storms.
So they have started a movement i
throughout the state to have tornado
caes built under the schoolbouses large
enough to accommodate nil tbe children
while the blow lasts. And here comes
in tbe tornado drill, which is already
being put into practice.
It is very much like our own Arc drill.
The teacher sounds the alarm on the
piano and the children all stand up.
Then the march is played, and out they j
go in good order, down tbe stairs and ,
mto.the cave.
Then let the winds blow! Let tbe
entire building fall in ruins! Tbo chil

There couldn't possibly be in all this
city another crowd of men so disgusted
as were the watchman, guides and ele
vator men at tbe city ball, says the
Philadelphia Itecord. It was all because
tbe public buildings commissioners had
been seized with what tbe men con
sidered a ridiculous attack of economy.
This is the time of tbe year when all
uniformed men in the employ of the
city prepare to change their winter
clothing for their summer garments.
Now, the uniforms worn by the city ball
men are profusely adorned with brass
buttons bearing tbe seal of the city, and
tbe municipal authorities are particu
larly careful to see that none of these
buttons shall ever go astray. It is, in
fact, a punishable offense for a common
citizen to have in bis possession one of
these buttons. Accordingly when each
man appeared for duty, lie was called
to the front and an official, armed with
a pair.of shears, snipped off all the city's
buttons from the victim s uniform ex
cept one, litcb was left to bold the eoat
across the chest. Fortunately the sus
pender buttons on tbe trousers are jus'"
the ordinary kind, without any num.
cipal insignia, otherwise there would
certainly have been a strike. The croj
of buttons thus gathered in was sent
