NAME PLATES FOR TOWNS.
An Idea Frem Abroad Whloh Might
Prove Valuable Here.
Automoblllsts who hove done any
amount of touting, either In the United
States or abroad, have frequently, won
dered why some method of designating
towns and cities has never been adopt
ed by municipal authorities, says the
New York Post. Some few mouths
ago the suggestion was advanced la
the United States that perhaps the
poetotlice department might be induced
to put the names of the towns on Us
poHtoilice buildings lu various places,
but so far as Is knowu nothing has
ever been done In this direction.
With characteristic British thorough
ness, the English Automobile associa
tion has taken this matter up in the
tight little Island, and it Is the inten
tion of the officers of thnt organization
to fix mime plates on the first anil last
buildings In all towns and villages
throughout the kingdom In order that
motorists as well as other travelers
may learn the name of a town or vil
lage as soon as they come to It It
would seem that this Is an Idea
which might be considered by Uio vari
ous state association of the American
Automobile association.
Model 8ehool Grounds.
The school and Its grounds should
be beantlful, models in every way.
that the children and their parents
may wish their homes leautlful and
sanitary, says the Los Angeles Times.
The vines that cling to the brick walla
of the school, replacing Its staring red
with waving masses of foliage, or
those that adorn the porch are types
of what may be done to transform
the humble borne of the mechanlo or
the pretentious but unlovely mansion
of a wealthy parent to a more beauti
ful exterior. Beauty has a market
value that Is rising rapidly. A home
with a well kept garden, neat lawn
and thrifty shade or fruit trees la as
sessed for far more, will sell for more,
than any adjoining weedy, unkempt
lot, even though the latter bears a
large or costly home. The city with
beautiful hemes attracts population,
business and prosperity. The citizen
with a home that be Is making more
beautiful has therein a testimonial to
his worth to any employer as well as
to his family and his fellow citizens.
The school garden that sends children
home to ask their parents to start
home gardens, even if these must be
only in boxes, is doing Ha community
good service.
Making a Lawn.
Four things are required to make a
good lawn time, soil, climate and In
telligent labor, says the Garden Mag
azine. In England they have a saying
that It requires a hundred' yeara to
make a lawn and 2m) years to make
a good lawn. In the United States,
where we are already trying to make
suburban homes while you wait aud
where a month or two seem a very
long time, people are too Impatient. It
apcaks well for their ambition that
they want lawns as soon as they move
Into their houses, but they are really
expecting too much. At the very best
It requires no loss than three years to
make a presentable lawn and flvo or
ton years to make what we uncritical
Americans call a good lawn.
England's War Footing.
It Is seveu years since the British
empire reeled from the b'ow dealt to
Its military prestige In South Africa,
but all the good resolutions formod
then havo come to nothing. There Is
not the slightest doubt that had Eng
land possessed a untlounl statesman
of courage and foresight the oppor
tunity might have been turned toward
better things, but we had none such.
We are today lu a relatively worse po
sition than we wero In 1HM), London

(Coprrivhted by Tne Dallj Storj Pub. Co.)
Word was running swiftly through the
' rsdbush country, carrying the news that
Marion Marie waa captured. While the
sun waa atill yellow and luaterleu through
the morning haze, and before it bad
reached over into the draws and hollows
of the clay bills, the men of the neighbor
hood were in the saddle aud the story of
the taking of Marion Marie the night be
fore waa on their lips. They were riding
in groups and in pairs and some were
riding sinnly, but all their paths were con
verging toward Squire Yantley 's sawmill.
Along the winding roads Hill Telket waa
pressing his tired horse into a hard gal
lop. He wai the president of tlie Anti
IlorseThief association and he waa
spreading the news of the capture and that
was notice to the mtmbers of the asa ela
tion that he wanted them at the trial
which was to be held at the sawmill.
"Takes men to handle ropes when we got
hots-thieves about," he said,
Hut the friends of Marion Marze were
among those who were riding over the yel
low clay knoh on the east and came gel
loping across the bottom on the west and
came out on the bridle paths that led from
the other directions to th mill. Word had
gone out to them also in the night from
Hes Telket't house. Nan Telket had dared
to love this man- over whose head hung
the odioua charge of horse stealing. She
was daring even more than that for her
father, her brothers and their friends and
followers had organised the Anti-llorse-Thief
association for the single purpose ol cap
turing: and if Dossible of lynching Marion
Marze. Her brother, Bill Telket, was riding
away in the darkness to gather his forces
whan she crept out of the house and ran
' across fields and by forest patha to give the
alarm.
None of the men was thoughtless enough
to come to the trial unarmed. Most of
them carried lung-barreled squirrel rifles,
More than half of those gathered there
were friends of Marion Marze and for that
reason the Anti Horse-Thief association
waa subject to the humiliating spectacle
of a legal inquiry into a horse-steal mg case
The millahed, which served aa the court
room, was crowded, Squire Yantley waa
nervous. Johnny Moore, the sheriff, and
his deputy, Dave Mawpum, sat with their
backs to the wall, a revolver in each hand,
with their prisoner between them. Some'
men ia the room were taller, some were
broader of shoulders, but none was aa hand
some in face and in figure as Marze. Hit
black hair hung down to hia shoulders.
He had a red handkerchief knotted at hia
throat. His trousers were tucked in the
tops of hia boott that were illuminated with
red and yellow stars and with crescents.
Even the heels of hit boots did not escape
admiring attention, for they were high and
slender and were jingling with spurs.
"I ain't never tried no hossthief cases,"
said Squire Yantley, "but if ye'll just keep
good order I guess we'll get along all right."
And he leaned over to Sheriff Moore for
advice, as to methods of procedure. Then
he called soon the prisoner to enter bis
plea.
"I ain't guilty," said Marts, as he stood
ereet and tossed back hia hair.
"Well who is!" demanded the squire.
"There's the hose thief," he cried, point
ing with hia arm outstretched. "Dill Telket
stole the mare."
Hill Telket swsn to his feet. The as
semhlage was suddenly ia motion. Back
ward and forward and sidewisc, it swayed
ominously and weapons were clicking, but
there waa no outbreak or rush or clash.
A murmur aroae in the rear of the room.
The crowd parted, making a ath through
its center, till a girl rushed into the open
space where the prisoner stood in an Atti
tude of defiance, facing Hill Telket. She
pulled from her head a blue sunhonnct,
whose edges dropped and half hid her face.
As she did so her hair, red hrown and
glinting, fell in masses like a mantle on her
shoulders Hed blushes fretted in her pal
lid checks. The murmurs of the throng
hushed and everyone was staring.
"Nan, what brings you here?" cried Bill
Telket.
"1 coins tsh save a man that never "
"Teh aave a hose thief?"
"You'eh my brother, Hill, n I love yeh,
'en I come to stop yeh from aayin' in
court thi't M.Mion Mine's a hossthief.
Squire, Mmon isn't no hoaa-thief. Heneveh
stole the mare!
"Wtll, who did steal 'er, Nan?" asked
the court.
"Ion't ask me, squire. I can't tell yeh,
but Marion didn't.
"r'.f yeh iton' tell, Naa, well hW teh
penitenthy 'im."
"Yeh caint; yeh caint! They'ae men
here; they won't let yeh!"
"Here. Nan, theyse enough o' that," said
Hill Telket, fiercely, aa he seized his sister
by the wrist and drew her rudely back.
She turned on her brother and he ahrunk
from the Hashing of her dark eyes. She
released her wrist from hie grasp. A half
subdued roar went up from the crowd and
it moved forward. A man in the front
rank was holding up a revolver. The girl
irsng at him and snatched the weapon
with such suddenness that the had
wrenched it from him before he could
tighten hia strong fingers on its handle.
Quicker than the men were thinking; she
wat at the eide of the prisoner.
"Here, Marion," she whispered, placing
the revolver ui hia hand. "Kunfurit. Fight
yer way out. Yer hoaa ia at the crick."
While ehe held up her face to him, he
bent hia head and kissed her. Then with
a ringing yell, he leaped straight at the
crowd, which opened a pathway for him
sod then eloeed in behind him. Nan threw
herself in front of the sheriff and hia dep
atiea and impeded them. It waa for a
second, only, but it waa sufficient time to
put struggling frantie men between them
sod their prisoner, whoa friends and ene
mies dosed in a savage struggle, forced
one another forward and Wat one another
back, but do one halted Marze or brought
him down. He swung the revolver he held,
to the right and left and hia keen eyes fol
lowed its motion. He went in a clear sc
that moved aa he moved till he reached
the door. At he sprung out a pistol waa
ftred. Savage yells were raised and a fusil
lade of shots rang and the crowd became a
tangled, seething mass.
Along the tortuous and foreat sheltered
course of Muscle Ford creek, Marion Mart
waa riding fast, by the lime the ahenffa
had irt out of th hauling, savage crowd.

STAMPING OUT SMALLPOX.

M DUlBIectlBST Asjeat.
According to B. 0. Flower, writing In
the April Arena, published in New
York city, Dr. Martin Friedrich, head
of th health office of Cleveland, O., has
opened the way for the btampicg out
of the scourge of smallpox without re
sorting to vsccination. Previously to
being promoted to the hend of the
health office Dr. Friedrich was for
three years in the employ of the city.
His experience during that time con
vinced him that vaccination was
not an invariable preventive of small
imx. but, on the other hand, that, after
I disinfection with formaldehyde of a
house in which the disease sas found,
I never another ease could be traced to
that house. Dr. Friedrich says:
"I laid these facts before Mayor Johr.aon
and proposed to stop vaccination entirely,
and Instead of It disinfect thoroughly with
formaldehyde every section of the clly
whire smallpox had madeltsappearar.ee;
also to give ihe city a jjer.tral cleaning up.
The mayor not only consented to my plen.
but also gave me all aid r.etiitd. I formed
two squads of dlssntectprs. preferring med
ical students for the work. Each squad
consisted of 3 men. with a regular sani
tary patrolman at thr-lr head, ar.d each
mas waa provided with a luunaldehyde
generator. Thus equipped they si-rted out
to disinfect every section of the c'.ty where
the disease had shown Its head, ar.d every
home In this section, no matter It small
pox had been within or not, and every room,
nook and corner of the house, special at
tention being paid to winter clothes that
had been stored away, presumably lifden
with germ. It took over three months to
do the work, but the result was most grati
fying. After July 23 aeven more cases de
veloped, the lsat ons August 23.
"In order to Rive you an adequate Idea
of what we did here to get rid of smallpox,
I have to menUon the Investigation depart
ment, consisting of phystciAns who were
thoroughly familiar with every phase of
the disease. They were day and right at
the disposal of the health department.
They had to Investigate every auspicious
case in town, and whenever they found a
esse of smallpox they asked the patleat the
following questions:
"Who vlstted you during th last two
weeks?
"Whom hav yo vlsiud during th last
two weeks?
"Have you been at any public meeting
during that time, and who was present, to
your knowledge?
"Where do you work?
"Where do the children attend school?
"Wher does your family attend dtvln
worship?
'This Information obtained, they atarted
out to all the Indicated addresses. They
asked the foreman, preacher and teacher
for all absentees during the laet month
from shop, church or school, ar.d then vis
ited the house of every one of thim. They
phoned their findings to the health office,
and dislnfectort with formaldehyde gen
erators were kept ready to follow the step
of the Investigators and disinfect where
there waa the slightest susvlclon of an ex
posure to smallpox Along with thlt the
regular sanitary police force was g.ven or
ders to make a house-to-house canvass- to
tell the public to clean up thilr yards,
barns and outhouses, and abats all nui
sances that could be found. Aa a result of
It Cleveland Is now free from smallpox,
and from the worst Infected city It haa In
come th cleanest."

The Tweatr-Thlrd Resrlmeat ot New
the Philippine War.
Fritz, the mascot of company H,
Twenty-third regulars, and veteran of
the Philippine war, is known to the
boys of the company as "comrade,
and to them he is away above the aver
age nf his kind, says the New York
Mail and Express.
Fritz enjoys the rare distinction of
being the only one of 18 monkeys able
to stand the long ocean voyage from
Mnnila. Frank J. KnofTkey is his own
er, nni! the soldier has never gone into'
an eiigiit;einent since April 14, lyon,
when Fritz was brought into camp,
without the farlhfiil monkey either on
his shoulders or trudging along close
by his side. Fritz has been on every
island in the Sulu archlpelsgo, and suf
fered without a murmur the long and
trying campaign.
When KnofTkey lay wounded on the
Held on Cebu island, his comrades in
uniform pressed on, but his comrade
Frits nestled close to his side and
guarded him through the watches of
the night.
On the regiment's forced march
across Latey island. Fsitx divided his
time between walking and riding on
the shoulders of the nier nil :,l ng the
line. It was on this m-ension that he
came near losing his life, at the hands
of several wild monkeys, because he
had no tall. A monkey loses his so
cial standing in the Philippines when
he is minus a tail. Fritz escaped from
his indignant relatives only by leap
ing to the shoulders of his master.
