A punktown teacher took a ftrip of rubber that was ho ft and fat, and smote a pupil on the hip. ami also on a limb and slat. He claimed tho sprlnguld thus chastised was most unruly all the time; but hosts of peo ple, shocked, surprised, de nounced his action an a crime. Before a Jury of his peers he will be tried they're telling me, nnd he may draw a dozen years, or suffer on the gallows tree. And everywhere through out the town it Is the subject ot debate; men argue with a smile or frown, and women hum a hymn of hate. Perhaps the teacher wan nt fault, per haps tho youth deserved hlB whacks; but controversy doesn't halt and smoking tempers don't relax. To one who lived in an cient days, and studied in old fashioned schools. It seems a frightful fuss to raise for clubs wero once the teachor'a tools. You often heard the pupil shriek, as you went by the school of yore; few schol ars ever went a week without (he birch that made them ftore. The teacher 'had a row of sticks and saplings gathered in tho wood, nnd woe betide tho youthful hicks who didn't at their bookH make good. For each infraction of the rules ami there were always rules to burn tho kindly teacher from his tools selected one that served his turn. Then he woult1 say, "It grieves my heart to punish you. oh erring youth, but you've, been acting ho blamed smart there'H nothing else to do. in sooth." And no one seemed to think it wrong, and teachers were not held in scorn because they larruped all day long, and .started eurly in the morn. Christmas party Thursday after noon.

PATRIOTIC SCOTS E STONE OF SCONE LONDON, Dec. 22. A' A plot to steal thu "Stone of Destiny" from the coronation chair in Westmin ster Abbey, recently disclosed here. Is said to be an opening move In u revolutionary program planned; by young Scottish 'imtionallst-s. They aim to bring to a head tlio objective for which many Kcots have long been working, the res toratfon of Scotland's national Iden tity, and her self-government through a parliament of her own. similar to the Ulster parliament in northern Ireland. Tho plans of these fiery youths to raid the abbey,'' carry off the stone and deposit it with the Lurd Provost of Perth, would, if suc cessful, fittingly symuouifie bv.i land's declaration of independence. Known as the Stono of Kcone, the "Htone of Destiny'' upon which the kings of England have sat at their coronations for almost seven hun dred years, had formerly been part of the throne of tho kings of Scot land from time Immemorial. It was brought from the Abbey of Scone, scene of Scottish corona tions, by Kdward I., first of the kings of a united England and Scotland, and since 196 has rest ed beneath the hard wooden seat of the coronhtion chair used by Britain's successive monarchs. A venerable tradition, credits it as being the stone on which Jacob pillowed his head, when he dream ed of the bidder "set up on the earth, and, the top of It reached to heaven, " and which he afterwards anointed with nil and set up for a pillar of "God's house." The fact that It is a piece of Scottish red sandstone, however, discounts that fact that the Stone of Destiny could have originated in the land of Ja cob. Tair Date Kali Tied. FItRKXO. Cfil., Dec.
