Like art ... .school of act ing pupils form a little world of their own. All their days, of course, arc fpent together, and in the evenings, as tickets are often sent to the schools by the managers when there is room, they go to plays together. At the theater they tell each other knowingly whet the actors on the stage ought to have done. They live in the ebullient atmosphere of mutual criticism and endless theoretical argument of young people who are all trying to do the
sarua thing. Naturally they drift at once into that easy familiarity of the
sexes characteristic of all art schools Tvhere young men and women are brought together on equal terms. The girls outnumber the men two to one and even more, which, in casting the plays, at least, makes the men do double duty ami get twice the opportunities. Possibly the reason that fewer
men go to the schools than women is largely economic, possibly it Is because
more women are stage smitten, but the plaint of the schools is that of the summer resort there are not enough men to go around. Algernon Tassin in Bookman.

A WAR ON DANDELIONS
Kokomo Sustains Reputation For the Unusual.
While the nation has an Arbor day, there is a flag day, and many cities have clcan-up days, it has remained for Kokomo to make a concerted war upon, the . thrifty, llandelion. As a res'jlt of a conference had by Mayor W.'H.'Arnett with a committee from the Caroline R. Sharpo club, the mayor has agreed to set a day and issue a proclamation calling upon the citizens of Kokomo to exterminate dandelion3 growing upon their lawns and vacant lots. Not only will property owners be compelled to take this action, but, tenants will be requested us welL
Indianapolis, May 4. An injunction against the Indiana railroad commission was denied the Vandalia railroad company by Judge Anderson of the federal court. The Vandalia sought to enjoin the commission against the enforcement of an order of Dec. 14, declaring the freight rates between points on the Vandalia to be unreason
able and excessive and fixing the rates to be charged.
Judge Anderson's ruling means thr.t
the rates ordered by the commission shall be in effect at least until a final hearing of the case in court. The
case is in the nature of a test case, and the final decision is being awaited
with interest by railroad men all ovr the state. Judge Anderson's reason for not granting the injunction was that r.t this stage of the proceedings he was
not justified in assuming that the commission erred in ordering the rate schedule. Dates Back to 19C5. The original action was brought by Schnull & Co., in August, 1!H)T. Th?y complained to the state railroad commission that the rates charged by tha Vandalia railroad company were un
just and excessive. An investigation
was started by the state railroad com-
beautiful cut flowers, the prize to be
used for the purchase of pictures in the school building. Two prizes will
be awarded in each of the eight school districts in the city by the Aftermath
club.
In addition to these, the West Side Improvement association has agreed to
award a number of prizes to the flower
growers of the Baxter school. In alj
ten prizes will be awarded to the flow
er culturists of the school. Five first
prizes will be awarded to the children
winning firsts on the five different va
rieties of flowers listed for the con
test. Five second prizes will be awarded. The association has also stated that a prize of $5 will be awarded to
the school if it wins first prize in the
city contest which will be held next
September.
By the large number of prizes award
ed, the teachers will take particular
pains to interest their children in the contest and it is confidently expected
that there will be more flower beds in Richmond than any previous year in
its history.

Belief That All Fruit Was Killed Not
Supported by Conditions at Hagerstown.
Hagerstown, Ind., May 4 Orchards
and fruit trees in this vicinity are
masses of bloom and do no support
the early belief that all fruit was killed. It appears now that there will be an average crop of all kinds of fruit,
except possibly strawberries. Some
farmers saved their strawberries by covering in the fall with straw and allowing the covering to remain during
the mild weather in March, which served to retard development of the buds. The freezing weather in April had no effect on such plants as the buds were not sufficiently developed to be damaged by frost.
