Jasper County District Schools to Open Monday.

Plans have all been made for the opening of the schools in the rural districts of the county. The schools in the following townships will "start on September 9th: Barkley, Carpenter, Jordan, Kankakee, Marion, Milroy, Newton, Union. The schools in Gillam, Hanging Grove, Keener, Walker and Wheatfleld townships will not start until a week later, September 16. Arrangements have been made to make the school term seven months or perhaps longer. Seven months is the length of the term usually pursued in Jasper and a majority of counties in the state, but many of the counties surrounding Jasper have instituted enight-month terms, and no doubt it would be well for Jasper county to keep up with the procession.

MAKE-UP OF NEW ALPHABET

Chinese 8ohol«re Devise List of Forty-: Two Letters Drawn From Different Languages. Reform Is in the air In China. The young Chlnse, educated in the unlver-. skies of America or Europe, are? no longer content with the characters in which their language has been written for thousands of years, each character ‘ representing an idea—not a word—and there being about 80,000 of these. They are trying now to abolish these characters and to replace them with letters that will represent sounds. No other single language could offer them a suitable alphabet, for there are sounds In their tongue which exist In no other. Chow Hi Chu, secretary of the Chinese legation in Rome, has been devoting his time recently to malting up an alphabet suitable for Chinese. He has been assisted by Messrs Wan and Chou, sub-secretaries, and Signor Rlvetta dl Solonghello, professor of Japanese and Chinese at the Oriental Institute of Naples, one of the greatest polyglots In the world. The latter gives this description of the alphabet that has resulted from their labors: “ r~' “To represent exactly all the sounds of the Chinese language.” said he, “we have had to draw upon almost all existing alphabets. The alphabet we have composed consists of 42 characters, of which 23 and vowels and 19 are consonants. ' — r “Of the vowels, four are taken from the Greek, four from the Russian, five from the Latin, one from the Chinese; of the nine otherß, two are what we call ‘modified’ or ‘prolonged’ and seven are reversed. “Of the consonants, 14 are taken from the Latin, three from the Russian and two from the Greek.” With thesel letters it Is possible to write exactly all the words of the spoken Chinese language that Is understood from one end of the new republic to the other.

DEWEY’S DOG IN BAD MIX-UP

Chewed Up Two Pairs of Admiral Evans’ Trousers and Destroyed Copy of Navy Regulations. Admiral Dewey had an English bulldog of which he was very proud. So marked was his affection for the dog that an atmosphere of “love me, love my dog” had sprung up around the admiral and the canine. It is further reported that the animal came near pausing trouble between the head of the navy and the late “Fighting Bob” Evans. Admiral Dewey while on a tour of Inspection when he was In command of the Pacific squadron took the dog along with him. He lost sight of his pet on Evans’ ship, but in a few minutes saw him hurled skyward from the companionway as if shot from a catapault With blood in his eye, says the New York World, Admiral Dewey rushed over to see the reason for the sudden ascent, surmising correctly

Dewey’s Dog Hurled Skyward.

that some one had kicked the dog. He saw “Fighting Bob” at the foot of the steps. “Sir!" roared the admiral. "What do you mean by kicking my dog?" “Sir/’ replied Evans In return, *Td have kicked that dog If he had been the property of the president of the United States! He chewed the legs off of two pairs of sls trousers and destroyed an edition de luxe of the navy regulations.” Dewey saw the point and paid for new uniform trousers.

Tact.

“How did you get your son to study arithmetic? I thought you said a few weeks ago that that study was posttiely distasteful to him." “So It appeared to me. But I finally •told him that arithmetic was useful If he wanted to figure the batting and fielding averages of the ball players, and now we can’t keep him away from his multiplication and division tables."

Only One Nose.

Sunday School Teacher—Why, Willie Wilson! Fighting again? Didn’t ’last Sunday's lesson teach that when you are struck on one cheek you ought to turn the other to the striker? Willie—Tas-m; but he hit me on the. nose, an’ I’ve only got oae.

Nordyke was released from jail this morning by Sheriff W. I. Hoover, after about six months of faithful service. Nordyke, with Wm. Messenger, was arrested last spring on the charge of bootlegging. Messenger pleaded guilty to the charge and was fined SSO and costs, the latter being very small. He served out his fine and costs in jail and has been at liberty for several months. Nordyke stood trial, but, thinking he could reap a fuller justice in Newton county, he had the case venued to the Newton court, causing a delay of thirty days, which he spent In jail here. When his case came to tice in Newton county, had the case SSO and given a 30-day jail sentence. •That, combined with the heavy court cost, necessitated by venuing the case, pad the thirty days delay, made the jail service a long one and would naturally tend to discourage bootlegging.
