Ways of Y< ung Men
Th® young man who tells cynical

mr w u o knew a few about men. Th »
is r:bat rbe to'd him: D ' and Polly
decided that Tom was a fll t. He had
bfen eall’ng upon both, send ng sweet
meats to one and violets to the other,
ard saying nice things to each oney
Thcx conferred and decided to each
write him a note asking him to call at
a certain hour, and as be could not
poselMv obey both commands at once,
it was to be conclusive proof that the
pirl thru be favored was in posses
sion of his heart, or whatever the man
fli t calls that organ. Whom should
thev meet just as their decision was
made but Tom himself! He stopped to
apeak to them for a moment, but said
nothing more in erest'ng than that
he bad lost his umbrella. The girls
parted, each go'ng to their own home
to write her note. Do’ly wrote' "Dear
*j*om—Have been taken suddenly ill.
Pe baps T may die. May I see you at
once?” But the evening passed, and
no Tom appeared. He bad answered
Polly’s summons. It read: "Dear Tom
Coifie up tonight. You left yopr um

Mr. Calvin and the Schools.
Savannah Preaa.
Hon. Martin V. Calvin of Rich
mond has long been a friend of the
public school*. He Is prominent’,y
identified with the educational Inter
est* of Georgia and was at one time
school superintendent of Richmond
county.
And yet In the debate In the house
of representatives at Atlanta ->lr.
Calvin favored a reduction In the
public schools appropr iation* because
he m v that It was right and proper.
Mr. Calvin states that the firs: direct
approrr latton made by the legislature
to the public echools of Oeorpla In
18SS was $165,000. Mr. McDonald of
Ware at that session proposed an ap
propriation of $500,000. The house,
however, thought It wieo to make
haste slowly. In 1800, tho appropri
ation was $335,000, The legislature,
In 1891, went a step farther and added
SIOO,OOO a . '•nr, so that In 1891 and
1892 the figure* stood over $400,000.
In 1892 the appropriation for the years
1893 and 1894 was fixed at $600,000.
Next It was stipulated that if the state
digest should prove to be In excess of
$175,000,000, the tax levy on the excess
should go to the schoo fund. In
this way the state has gradually In
creased its appropriations to the com
mon school.
Undoubtedly, n small Increase over
$600,000 would have been wiser, in
view of the d?tnand» upon the state
treasury, than a $1,000,000 donation
out nnd out. which was beyond our re
sources. Mr. Calvin realises that It
Is better to slowly Increase these ap
propriations than to make a_ sudden
Jump, as wrs made In 1895, when
tbe appropriation Increased nil at once
from $600,000 t.o over $1,000,000. This
is the reason why a cut must be mode
this year.
No one is anxious to take away from
the public echoo funds. This ought
lo be sacred to the ctV dm of the
state. But In times of supreme finan
cial exigency all amounts have to be
lessened. Mr. Calvin recognizes this
point and has endeavored, to explain
this trouble and pave tbe way to sen
sible acquiescence in reduced figures.
This is only justified upon tbe grounds
of strict eiiconomy and stern necesai
ty.

Twenty-Eight Trestle*.
Barnwell. S. C„ Dec. 15.-Regarding
(he exenslon of the Atlantic Coast
Line from Denmark to Robbins it is
snfd that the road will be compelled to
bullrl twenty-eight trestles, large or
small, between Denmark and Robbins.
Four or flve will be considerable struc
tures, those over Satfcahatchie and the
Lower Three Runs.
Speaking of the latter stream. It is
probable that on it, at Rocky Point,
about two miles below Stinson’s Brilge,
a kieater horse power can bo develop
ed than at any other point In the eoun
ty.
One advantage there Ik that the old
dam, about one hundred years old.
strengthened by the roots of large troop
growing on it, is still there, and nature
has scattered around in the swamp, ap
parently for the very purpose of build
ing an Impregnable barrier against the
force of the pent water, slllclous rocits
of huge size for this portion of the
state, some of them being of the size
and shape of a cord of wood. One of
them, "The Coffin Rock,’’ has assumed
the likeness of a largo coffin, and the
tradition has been handed down, that
in the days when the mill was convert
ing the huge trees of the adjacent pri
meval forests Into such lumber as we
never see now a man oonected with the
mill was caught and badly cut in the
min, so that he died from the Injuries
received. Soon after the accident oc
curred he was borne to this rock, which
was then qf cubical and oblong form. It
it said that he died there.and since then
it has- under- the mysterious erosion of
years 'and of nature, changed its form
and .baoaißo.lh appearance a large atone
coffin.

Studying Honkey Talk
N. Y. Tlbm*.
Springfield, Ohio, Dec. 11. Prof.
R. L. Gamier, the savant who ha*
made “monkey talk” a lifelong study,
is in the city for a short stay, alter
having filled a lecture engagement
here. He said today: ”1 am preparing
to go bark to Central Africa, for a fur
ther study of monkey language. I
will remain three years. I had expec
ted to go last May, but the war bi cak
ing out delayed me, as I would have
been compel-ed to go through much
Spanish territory and live und»r the
government of the French, and the at
titude of the French was at that time
ari unknown quantity. Thl* will Ire
my third trip. I left on my first
voyage in 1892, and returned In 1894.
On the last voyage I 'eft in July, 1895,
and returned In June, 1890. On my re
turn to Africa this time I shall devote
my attention almost entirely to tho
chimpanzee ami native pygmies. I
found it necessary to make ray studies
to go to Central Africa, where the two
great apes, the gorilla and the chim
panzee, could be found in the v wild
state.
"Knowing that the jungles in which
they live were infested with wild
beasts of diverse kinds, I provided my
self with a cagft composed of twenty
five panels of steei wire lat'ice. I had
it carried in sections on the men’n
heads into the jungle and there erected
as a domicile and fortress. The plaes
was on the south 9ide of Lake Far
nanvaz, about one hundred miles south
of the equator, on the west side of
Africa, and about the same distance
from Cape Lopez. I took Into my cage
a supply of canned food, medicine,
clothes, arms, ammunition, a kerosene
stove, a hammock, folding chair,
swinging table, and all the necessary
small furniture need in camping. This
was about the ’ of April. I stayed
irt and around 113 days ami
nights. I had Hi fUe jungles
a pot china pail, ad eu ned Moses,
and a gorilla, Otheiio
Prof. G&rnior made phonographic
records of several unspeuaole monkey
words. As tthelf vocal organ’s are
similar to man’s he thinks they can
b< lmight to ns.' human words.
