The contest of wits between the prim old maid and the Parisian flirt for the hand of the rich young ward- in the play “Merely a Scrap of Paper,” to be presented here by the Cebohd Dramatic Company Saturday night, is most amusing to the onlooker, though a sigh of satisfaction is audible when the right one finally wins her point and the youth is saved from an unhappy match. Miss Bell and Miss Richardson are both actresses of rare merit, »and have appeared in other companies before their engagement with their present company. Miss Richardson* starred in ‘The Special Recorder” last year and won for herself an enviable reputation as a talented actress. RENSSELAER MARKETS. Corn—soc. ' Oats—3oc. Chickens—l2c. Eggs—ls%c.

A CINGALESE DAINTY. White Ante if Ceylon and Their Num* ercus Natural Enemies. It la estimated that two-thirds of the Island of Ceylon Is undermined by white anta. The number of these Insects Is certainly quite incalculable; but it la fortunate that their natural enemies are almost as numerous. The workers are preyed upon by true anta and many other insects; by spiders, lizards and centipedes; by rata, mice and palm squirrels. But it Is the adult winged insects that are especially victimized. It Is probable that scarcely 1 per cent of the mature Insects survive the dangers of the periodic fights. They run the gauntlet of nearly every other animal. Birds, bats, squirrels, rata, toads and lizards all flock to the feast. Dogs and cats eat the winged anta with avidity. “Even man himself (foes not disdain to participate,” says E. E. Green. “The Tamil coolie looks upon a mess of fried termites as a great dainty, and I have several European acquaintances who consider that termites on toast form a dish worthy of more gen* oral laclusln In the menu. They are said to taste not unlike mushrooms.”
Officially Ignored.
On the relief train that had been rushed to the scene of the railway wreck was a newspaper reporter. The first victim he saw was a man whose eyes were In mourning ’anti whose left arm was In a sling. With his hair full of dirt, one end of his shirt collar flying loose and his coat ripped up the back, the victim was sitting on the grass and serenely contemplating the landscape. “How many people are hurt?” asked the reporter, hurrying up to him. _ "I haven’t heard of anybody being hurt, young man,” said the other. “How did this wreck happen?” "I haven’t heard of any wreck.” "You haven’t? Who are you, anyhow?*’ "I don’t know that it’s any of your business, but I’m the claim agent of the road.”
Weather In the Arctic Region.
The Idea prevails that the Arctic regions are always in the grip of King Frost A careful log kept for the Meteorogical society for six months, with temperature observations taken at 8 a. m., 12 noon, 4 p. m. and 8 p. m. shows during that period that as far north as 77 degrees north latitude, or about 2,000 miles to the north of Ottawa, the average temperature at'noon worked out at 33.85 degrees Fahrenheit The greatest cold noted was on October 28 at 8 a. m.. In the 70th degree of north latitude, 18 degrees Fahrenheit The greatest heat occurred on September 2 at noon in the same latitude, and was 52 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature’’observations were kept from May 1 to October 31.
English and American Education.
Americans educated the mass, while we have always educated the leaders. In England—democracy assenting to the method —we make a point of specially encouraging the promising pupils; we build "ladders” for them, and we believe that our indifference to the question of what class of society they may come from is sufficient proof of our genuinely democratic habit of mind. It has been the immemorial practice of England to train leaders for the nation. This was done when most citizens were receiving no education at all. Americans rather concentrate their attention on the ruck. The exceptional boy or girl, it is thought, will rise in any case. The important thing to do Is to advance the average of education.
Beet Sugar Industry Expanding.
The beet sugar industry is growing in California. Eleven factories consume 9,700 tons of beets in a year. Alkaline soil seems peculiarly adapted to their growth, as it has been found that the salts and solids in the ground are collected in the tops and after a few crops the soil is so enriched as to grow anything. This beet grows to a great size, some specimens weighing as much as B 0 pounds. One factory expects to produce 20,000,000 pounds of sugar this year. The tops sheared off close to the ground are fed to cattle with profit The .by-produot from the molasses is alcohol.
Locations of Promotion.
Elzena, aged four, reveled in klndergarter lore, and each day imparted to her young mother the many interesting things that the sweet-faced teacher had told them. Among the vicissitudes of school life to be encountered was that of vaccination, which was new to the little one. After much explaining and reassuring this difficulty was safely passed. A few weeks later she returned one day from kindergarten tn a whirl of excitement, exclaiming: "Mother, mother, Im going to be promoted—mother' will I be premeted on my arm or legT"
Penalty for Life-Saving.
There are no half measures shoot the law. If it moans to be absurd, absurd it will be. The Leo coroner was about to hand five shillings to a bargeman for pulling a woman out of the water, when It was pointed out that the woman was alive when rescued. As a result the man got no reward.

Upon faculty action, Eugene Steffes, whom the judges had voted the winner of the Conroy Oratory medal at the oratory contest given on May 1, was declared ineligible.

Scheidler, C.PP.S., journeyed to St. Meinrad’s Seminary, St. Meinrad, Ind., to be present at the ordination of his brother, George Scheidler, to the holy priesthood. Other former students here were ordained in the same class, John J. Callagher and Charles Scholl. Considerable damage was done about the college premises on Tuesday evening by the violent storm. The trees suffered severely by the breaking and tearing off of the The tall poplars were almost left lank stems. Some of the windows in the faculty building were blown in with the result of several flooded rooms. Quite a large portion of the tile was torn from the chapel roof, but owing to the tar paper remaining firm there was no water damage done to the frescoing and paintings and furnishings. -. L ~ Interest in the college base ball' leagues is growing warm. In the senior league the teams that were doped out sure losers, and who did stait by losing, are now turning tables, and the sure winners are goii g to the bottom of the percentage list. However, it is too early to make a safe guess on the winners, for the present losers may take spurts and turn winners, for now no team has much the advantage of the others. In the junior much the same conditions prevail. On Saturday the Varsity will take the trip to Chicago to play a return game with Loyola University. The team, will be well loaded with substitutes, but if the new men keep up the practice of making good as they have thus far this season, there is no reason why the Varsity should not return victors. Lili is also making good in big company. He pitched the opening game for Ottawa, and proved the biggest factor in bringing victory to his team.
KNIMAN.
The farmers here are getting a little corn planted. Guy Meyers was a visitor in our town Wednesday. Lee Meyers has been laid up the past four or five days with measles.

Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Smith, of Rensselaer, are calling on their old friends at Kniman this week.
The new manager of the dance hall is preparing for some special features for the dance to be given the 24th. Mr. W. A.

Miss Lizzie Meyer, of Chicago, returned to her home Monday after spending a week visiting her sister, Mrs. John Meyer, of this place. We understand that Barney Jungles is going to attend the £ance to be given at Virgie the 24th. He says if the dance gets monotonous he and John might have a horse race. - T~ Postmaster Harry Brown has received word from the postmaster general that the office at Virgie will be discontinued May 31, and that mail for patrons of that office will be sent to Kniman. Shills dog and pony show, billed for this place Tuesday evening, were compelled to leave without showing, owing to the heavy rain that fell during the evening, The dance given here Saturday evening in the Hoile Hall, under the management of John Brook, was a grand success. There were about thirty 'ton pies present and all report a good time.

Hallie Stultz has gone over to Brook to work for his uncle, John Paris, this summer, and may remain all next winter and go to school. The wind did considerable light damage in this neighborhood Tuesday night, and the lightning also struck a great many trees and telephone poles, bUt fortunately no fires were started. A good many old roofs were blown away and hay racks lifted from wagons, etc. : Old apple trees suffered perhaps the worst. The big barn on the Price farm at McCoysburg was quite badly wrenched and will require considerable work to straighten it out. It was built only a couple of years ago. Chas. Bussell’s wild geese are all through hatching and out of 27 eggs he has 26 goslings. There 26 goslings belong to 5 pair of geese. This probably is the most remarkable hatch ever known of, and brings the number of his flock back to fifty. During last summer and fall the wolves killed twentyfive of his geese, part of them being laying geese, which cut the growth of the flock quite materially. Mr. Bussell has killed one wolf and one fox this winter and dhus he may be able to raise all of his flock this year.
