but in that I was mistaken, as they
have had an amount of trouble since

only had eight steel rails when they
started, nnd about the time they got
opposite F. J. Ayres' residence,
where they hnd to climb a steep hill,
they broke two of the rails, that
leaving them only six, and as they
have to have two of them under the
machine all the time, leaving only
fonr to use, it necessitates going
very Blowly, and having a very steep
hill to climb, it takes longer than I
expected.
Lnst Tuesday I had tho pleasure
of visiting our school, in tho princi-
pal's room, at least. Professor Daley
has proved to be tho right man in the
right place. He had nt the time
visited tho school 43 children in his

HOTEL MAID RESTORES
FIFTY THOUSAND FOUND
NEW YORK, Jan. 13. But for tho
honesty of a hotel maid, eastern bet
ting on tho Jeffries-Johnson fight
'vould have been qultcd to tho extent
of $50,000, according to Edward
Healy, chief ot police of San Joso,
Calif.
Healy landed horo recently with
$50,000 In tivo gold certificates given
him by H. T. Mills, a California man
ufacturer, and Mat Larkln, a sports
man to bet on tho big fight.
Tho Bherlff decided that he was
better cblo to caro for tho money
than a any bank and hid It under a
sheet on his bed at tho Hotel Albany.
Tho morning after his arrival he
told a friend about tbo slzo of tho
bank roll and was laughed at by tho
easterner who demanded to (bo
"shown."
Then It was that tho officer re
membered that ho left tho certificates
In bed. Ho raced to tho hotel and
arrived Just as Mary O'Neill, a cham
bermaid, handed tho roll of notes to
the manger of tho hotol.
Healy presented tho maid with
$100 as a roward for her honesty,
and marched to a bank where ho de
posited tho remainder.
