A PENSION FOND IS HOW PROPOSED
Indiana School Superintendents Favor Caring for Aged Teachers.
MAY INTRODUCE A BILL
IN THE NEXT LEGISLATURE FOR THIS PURPOSE WOULD ACCEPT DONATIONS AND MAKE A LEVY ON EDUCATORS.
(Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Not. 5. The city and county school superintendents of Indiana, who are now holding: their annual convention In this city, are considering the idea of introducing a bill In the next legislature providing for the creation of a pension fund for school teachers. The plan has been under consideration by the superintendents for a year, having been placed in the hands of a committee at last years convention, and the committee has made its report at this meeting. Under the proposed plan a fund would be created by accepting gifts, devices, bequests and such other donations as might come to the fund; and also from the levying on all school teachers in the state of an assessment. This assessment would be fixed at one percent of the annual salary of the teacher, and one per cent of any pension received from the fund by any teacher. The fund would be further supported by an apportionment out of the regular state school funds. A Small Assessment. The beneficiaries would include any teacher, teacher-clerk, supervisor or superintendent in any school supports ed In whole or in part by public moneys. This would include presidents of state educational institutions and county superintendents. The amount of pension paid to any beneficiary would be one percent of the average yearly salary of the applicant for the five years immediately preceding his application multiplied by the number of years he has been in the service. This would be an annual pension. To obtain a disability pension the teacher must have been in the service at least fifteen years. To get a retirement pension the applicant shall have been a teacher for at least
thirty-five years and be at least sixty years of age. There is more opposition to the pension plan, but it is believed some ac
tion will be taken looking to the introduction of a bill at the next session of the legislature.

THEY ARE VERY SAD
High School Boys Deplore the Fact They Cannot Have Any Frats.
ONLY ONE CONSOLATION
Local high school students who are deploring the fact that the school
board will not permit them to have "frats" in the school may be interested somewhat, and their injured feelings considerably relieved, by learning that Richmond is by no means the only city in the state where the ban has been placed on such organizations. After waging a strenuous campaign for the past few months against fraternities, sororities and clubs, "that have been such a constant menace to the discipline, the intellectual welfare and the democratic spirit of the public schools." the- school board of Anderson, Ind., has clamped the lid down tight on such organizations and made the law on the subject plain to the effect that unless the "frats" and clubs are disbanded the students will not be permitted to attend school. This radical action was taken by the school board at Anderson at a meeting held Wednesday night, and is the result of years of endeavor on the part of the board to break up the organizations. The school boards in many other cities in the state are experiencing the same difficulty as Anderson. Richmond is particularly fortunate in this regard. and the board here is congratulating itself on the fact that no trouble has arisen over the matter and that no effort has been made on the part of the students this year to organize any such societies. The local board declared its stand on the matter at the beginning of the school year, and the students took the hint.

(American News Service) Kiel, Germany, Nov. 5. The trial of the five merchants and four naval officers accused of grafting fortunes in the purchase of supplies, which was continued today, showed that for years the ring has been making immense profits by collusion. In one case the government was forced to pay 1,000 marks for goods that had cost the seller 76 marks.

Rockland, Maine, Nov. 5. The trial performance of the battle ship North Dakota yesterday developed the fact that the United States government is now in possession of a "Dreadnaught" that can show a clean pair of heels to any of the monsters of other nations afloat. The new ship was sent over the course of a mile at a maximum speed of 22.25 knots, which fractures the best record made by any of the Dreadnaught type. By her showing the North Dakota takes precedence over all others in the battle-ship class as a general firstslass fighting machine, and with her sister ship, the Delaware, the government has a pair of bulldogs strong enough to cope with a fleet of Bea fighters of the old-fashioned type. It was not a burst of speed that was taken into consideration by the experts who witnessed the trial, but general capabilities along the lines of speed and power. Her average in the standarization test reached the surprizing figure of 21.833 knots. Giant Turbines Used. To attain this speed the turbines of
the Dreadnaught were forced to the development of more horse power than has been reached by any battle ship afloat. A maximum of 35,150 horse power was recorded, while 33,873 horse power was the mean amount. The maximum number of revolu
tions of the propellers was 286 a minute, although 203 revolutions in the
time were sufficient to maintain the
contract speed of 21 knots.
Her sister ship, the Delaware, was the uncertain possessor of the best previous record. At the trials in Oc
tober the Delaware was thought to be about the best that could be produced, but the North Dakota yesterday went a step better. There is but one such battleship afloat at the present time whose attainments can compare with those of the North Dakota. This is the Neptune, just launched for the British navy. The Bellerophon, British, has made but 22.1 knots, as compared with the North Dakota's performance today of 22.25. , Speedier in Ail Ways. It was on the first of her runs over the measured mile course following several preliminary rounds that the North Dakota made her record yesterday. The tide was In Her favor and this is not subtracted from the best figures. In the recorded mean, or average, however, the tidal corrections are made. The five trials over the mile course were recorded as follows: 22.25, 21.48U, 22.13, 21.00 and 22.133. The influence of the tide on the vessers speed is shown In a comparison of the time in succeeding miles. Oil and Coal Test. While the five speed runs were being recorded the North Dakota was also undergoing a two hours' test for consumption of oil and coal. The Delaware and the North Dakota are the first battle ships built for the United States navy to use the oil spraying method. The showing is understood to have been very satisfactory. H. G. Smith, representing the Fore River Shipbuilding company, builders of the North Dakota, naturally expressed great satisfaction with the battle ship's performance. It is interesting to note that the Delaware, which was built by the Newport News Shipbuilding company, is equipped with reciprocating engines, while the North Dakota is the first American battle ship of the first class, to have turbine engines installed. Captain Edward O. Evans, who narrowly escaped death when the tug Nezinscott was sunk off Cape Ann several months ago, was in charge of the North Dakota. A working crew of 400 men pushed the vessel to a record performance.

8hape, Size and Color of Papor Money of the Nation. The only paper money that Is accepted practically all over the globe Is not "money" at all. but the notes of the Bank of England These notes are simply printed In black Ink on Irish linen water lined paper, plain white, with ragged edges. The reason that a badly, soiled or worn Bank of England note is rarely seen is that notes which lri any wsy find their way back to the bank are immediately canceled and new ones are Issued. The notes of the Banqne de France are made of white water lined paper printed In black and white, with numerous mythological and allegorical pictures. They are In denominations of from 25 francs to 1,000 francs. Bank of England notes are of a somewhat unhandy size 5 by 8 Inches.
South American currency resembles the bills of the United States, except that cinnamon brown and slate bine are the prevailing colors. German currency is printed In green and black, the notes being In denominations of from 5 to 1.000 marks. The 1.000 mark bills are printed on silk fiber paper. It takes an expert or a native to distinguish a Chinese bill from a laundry ticket if the bill is of low denomination or a firecracker label If for a large amount the print being in red on white or yellow on red. with much gilt and gorgeous devices. Italian notes are all sizes, shapes and colors. The smallest bills. 5 and 10 lire, are printed on white paper In pink, blue and carmine inks. The most striking paper currency In the world Is the 100 ruble note of Russia, which is barred from top to bottom with all the colors of the rainbow blended as when a sun ray passes through a prism. In the center in bold relief Is a finely executed vignette in black. The remainder of the engraving on the note is In dark and light brown ink. The American practice of scattering strands of silk through the paper fiber as a protection against counterfeiting Is unique. Harper's Weekly.
