"A GREAT OUTING" CARRIERS DECLARE Something Doing at Palladium Camp at Park Every Day. "We carrier boys are being treated royally by the management," said several of the Palladium carriers who are camping at the Chautauqua. "There is nothing in the world that we can think of that we have not done. It's a great outing." On Thursday evening the boys were taken to Hawkins bathing pool. This event will be repeated soon, probably this afternoon or evenin.t. On Friday morning they were addressed by "Sunshine" Hawks. Last evening they went down to the auditorium in body and heard the address by "Bob" Seeds which pleased every one of them and the managers of the camp are making an attempt to secure Seeds to give a private talk to the boys and take a meal with them. "Sunshine" Hawks has also been invited to dine with them. The doubles of the horse shoe tournament, which were played off on Thursday, were won by Monarch and Thomas, and the singles will be playd some time next week. The base ball game of last week was lost to the play grounds team, but the boys hope to be more successful next week when they will play a team organized by Herbert A. Pettijohn, this team to represent either the A". M. C. A. or the boys camping at Chautauqua. The boys claim that the cook, commonly known as "Pat" is the best ever and that they wouldn't sell him for bis weight in gold. The meals are exceptianally fine and as nicely prepared as if for a private family. Last tight after the lecture the boys had a water melon feast and the cook declares that if they eat much harder they will have to have a special grocery store for them on the grounds. " " Beauty In the Angleworm. It there is any living thing that eems to have nothing to relieve its cgllness it is the angleworm that crawls slimily across the sidewalk aftr a heavy rain. And yet even that is beautiful. Put a bit of its upper skin under the microscope and your ideas of the poor little worm will change mightily. It shimmers like the softest satin and sparkles with all the colors of the rainbow, for it is covered with little fine lines crossing each other like the cuttings in a glass vase-

A measly little cat, consisting of little more than a bunch of shaggy fur over a skeleton of bones and two big glassy eyes "got the goats" of a dozen sturdy workmen, kept them on the verge of nervous collapse for thirty days and nearly caused a mutiny in a new Washington boulevard residence under construction for City Councilman Rukens. About a month ago, just after the plastering and flooring was completed, the workmen began to hear faint "me-ows" at frequent intervals in various parts of the building. Diligent search failed to reveal the source of the sounds. Workmen cast suspicious glances at each other; some complained of "creepy"' feelings, and one or two declared the place was haunted. When a strike of the workmen became imminent, the foreman summoned the councilman, obtined permission to cut several holes in the plastering and finally located the critter where it had been imprisoned between the walls for thirty days without food, water or fresh air. One workman was severely bitten on the thumb while dislodging the feline.

REDS ARE SHOWING SOME REAL CLASS (National News Association) BROOKLYN, X. Y., Aug. 23. Cin cinnati made it two straight with Brooklyn yesterday, winning by 7 to 2, through Allen's wildness and Rucker's ineettiveness. Allen left Rucker a full house with nobody out in the third inning through passing Johnson and Bescher and hitting Bates, and Eagan greeted Rucker with a single, sending two runs across. Smith was put out of the game in the eighth for protesting decisions. Score: Cincinnati 00200300 27 Brooklyn 0101 0000 02 HOT LINERS OFF THEBAT Darkness put an end to the PhilliesPirates' contest in the thirteenth inning at Philadelphia yesterday when the score was 3 to 3.

The Giants added their third season's series to their scalp belt yesterday by beating the Cubs. The had previously taken the honors from the Reds and Cardinals. The Giants gained half a game on the Phillies. While the Red Sox were taking the measure of the Naps, the Athletics fattened their lead in the American yesterday by beating the White Sox. Manager Chance of the Yankees has sold Infielder McKenchnie to the St. Paul club o fthe American Association. When the Boston Nationals drafter McKechnie from the St. Paul club last year, there was an understanding that if he was ever sent back to a minor league, St. Paul should get first chance. Pitcher Roy Mitchell of the St. Louis Browns, who has proved a hoodoo to the Senators all season, lived up to his record again yesterday by trouncing the Washingtons. Big Jeff Tesreau of the Giants allowed the Cubs but five hits yesterday "at the Polo grounds. The Red Sox-Naps contest was a keen pitchers' duel. Bedient allowed eight hits, but his team won, nevertheless. FOR 880-YARD DASH (National News Assoc lation) NE WYORK, Aug.- 23.

From Los Angeles by trolley car and burro back up through the pine forests one reaches the Wilson observatory. No dome or gigantic telescope greets the visitor when he gains the summit. A huge Noah's ark of canvas destroys all preconceived ideas of what an observatory should look like, and within three wonderful mirrors take the place of the great tubular telescope of other observatories. The observatory building is constructed of canvas, the sides being set in the form of tiers of steeply overlapping eaves. This arrangement is calculated to allow for perfect ventilation and is re-cniofeed by a vertical wall of canvas, which can be raised or lowered at will to obtain an even temperature. The peculiar arrangement of mirrors that replaces the familiar telescope is the center around which all interest in the observatory revolves. These mirrors are constructed at the Yerkes observatory and are the fines products of the optician's manufacturing skill. The enlarging mirror, which is supported by a pier of stone at the farther end of the building, is of concave glass four inches thick, and the scientists tell us it is of twenty-four inch aperture by sixty foot focus. The glass is polished ever so often with jewelers' rouge upon pads of chamois skin and is burnished every week or ten days, in order to remove all possible dust. In addition a galvanized cover is kept over it when it is not in use. Christian Herald. Frolica of Ivan the Terrible. Ivan the Terrible, among his many Insane freaks, would let loose wild bears in the streets of his capital and placidly say his prayers while watching the slaughter of his people, "flinging a few coins to the mutilated survivors as he rose from his knees." He would compel parents to slay their children, and children to kill one another; and if there was a survivor "the amiable monarch would dispatch him with his own hands, shrieking with laughter at so excellent a joke." In one of his lighter moods of frolic be commanded the citizens of Moscow to "provide for him a measure full of fleas for a medicine," and fined them 7,000 roubles when they failed.

May Suggest to Local Board of Education to Establish System in all Richmond Public Schools. Prof. John F. Thompson, head of the department of science in the high school, has returned from a vacation at Cleveland and Grand Rapids, where he has been studying the school garden system and also the sand dune formation in Michigan. On June 30, Prof. Thompson went to Cleveland, where he remained for a week studying the work of Miss Louise Kline Miller in the school gardens of that city. "Every school has a plot of ground adjoining or near it," said Prof. Thompson, "where the pupils are taught to grow ordinary vegetables of all kinds, under the direction of a t teacher, just as if it were an -ordinary j class. Miss Miller has nine assistants j who plow, cultivate and prepare the ! ground for the planting of the seeds, which is done by the students. After the vegetables begin to grow they jmust be watered, weeded and hoed, and when they are ripe they are pick ed by the children and sold at the local market, the proceeds being given to the children. The vegetables raised are beans, peas, radishes, onions, sweet corn, and everything which could be cultivated by children in this work. Besides fifteen different places where this work is supervised by Miss. Miller, she has charge of the decora tion of the school yards and there is j not a school grounds in Cleveland that i is not scientifically laid out. j "I went to Cleveland to investigate ! this work and decide whether it could be established in Richmond. As far as I can find out there is not a city in Indiana that has adopted this branch of the work and only a very few in some of the other states have tried it. I intend to go to Chicago some time this fall to see Willard N. Klute, a man who has been instrumental in in When Bride and Groom Were Thin. In the year 1795 Dr. Douglas wasl made master of Corpus Cbristi college and then married Miss Main waring, a j daughter of the Lady Margaret pro- j fessor of theology. As both were very thin, Mansel wrote as follows: St. Paul has declared that persons, though ' twain. . , in marriage routed on neen snau remain. But had he been by when, like Pharaoh's klne, pairing.

stalling the work in the schools of that city and he has written me that he would be glad to see me and talk over the work. If there is any action taken to establish such a department in the Richmond schools the ground will have to be bought this" fall and this will be the hardest part of the work. The ground must be near the school and in many cases it would be impossible to procure such land." "I was also in Grand Rapids." said Prom. Thompson, "and was studying the formation of the sand dunes in that vicinity. I have taken a large number of photographs of this part of my work and I Intend to prepare lantern slides from these for use in the school work In connection with the various lectures."
