Alt this Is about to bo smashed. A physical In structor of a high school In that um'.v purple sub tub of Chicago, Ijike View, has a class In car jumping which may sooner or later drive train ed acrobats off tho tanbark. T h c professor has an imaginary street car In tho room (for "room" read "gym," tho LTyrrrvi schoolgirl's paradise). To mako tho Jump real each pupil In tho class ap pears with n bundle in her arms. Thus luindlcnpped, the class makes a scram ble for the car dummy. This dummy is nothing mora than a dumbbtll rack. During the scramble the dummy la pushed to and fro by an urchin who has an lntonso expression on his face akin to that worn by an, outsider who tries to take In the ball game through a knothole. As the boy pulls and shoves the dummy he does his lovel best to short circuit. It is not sup posed that the youngster knows any moro about the laws that govern elec tricity than a hen knows about flying. But ho does his best to tumble tho class, and. sometimes he succeeds. Several young men in Lake View who think that men ought to bo nrouiul to make tho' scono lifelike have offered to volunteer as tho rude clement, hut rim iiude element. the girls have informed the professor if ho admits men to tho "gym" they won't piny. The instructor thlnkB that his class will soon ho so proficient that the members will bo able to make n running Jump at a high speed automo bile, land itnd then leap back to tho ground with tho celerity and safety of u cat. Mr. Shakespeare used tho word "damned" several limes, and our own Noah Webster put It In bis book, and also another word suggestive of tho country where th electric fun would bo welcomed. TJie Hev. William Dun- forth of, this city, who playwrights when not other wise engaged, evolved u drama for the stage, lie called It "Gates of Eden." A play with that mime ought to run through without a Jar. But tho manager who put It on thought It would bo Improv ed by the Inter jection of nu oc casional "damn." Tho Imperative word was run in without tho per mission of the au thor, who was given a box on the premier nigh t. When, however, the vil lain in the piece hurled a damn at one of tho minor m. ,IInrAlAwyEn. characters, tho dominie nearly Jumped out of the box. At the end of tho first act he met tho manager on the stage and protested that there wns no damn In tho play as he wroto It. The manager Insisted that the word strengthened the sen tence and reminded the cleric that Mr. Shukcspeare wok not above running In tho word in his plays. Mr. Danforth modestly rejillod that he was not in Shakcsneare's class. The ruanatrer said I he would have to keep tho word in, especially as It seemed to take with tho audieuce. The next day the author hired a lawyer and Instructed him to apply for k Tnii VILLAIN IN THE 1'IECE HURLED A DAMN. nn Injunction that would eliminate the objectionable interjection. So It's up to the court to move. Chicago's Diana stands tiptoe on the highest plnnaclo that overlook the ohoppy water of Lake MIehlgau.

Tho chemist de clared that if Diana should return to Olympus In her present mnooty condi tion tho god on tho door would turn her away. "Just whatever does It moan?" guspftl the scientific class. Then the chemist told them. Ho said that It made tio difference to Diana; that she probably had become accus tomed to It.

Tho umbor atmosphere of London is as fragrant as new mown clover compared to that of Chlcngo. All this has been nectar for the health commissioner hero, who has been toll ing the citizens over since ho drew his first salary that something must be dono to purify tho air of the city or that it will make Chicago n city of pestilence. 80 much for Diana on a pinnacle. Last year nbout this time there was a sound of revelry by night at the Coliseum, and "Bath House John" and "ninky Dink" had assembled thero such as they desired to bo present. Tho Coliseum Is where tho national conventions are hold when Chlcngo la tho selected city. "Until House John" is the accepted sobriquet of Alderman John Coughlnu- of tho First ward. "Iliuky Dink" Is the acknowledged nickname of Aldernmn McKonnn, also from the First ward. Those two in vited to tho festivities a minister of tho gospel, and ho accepted. On the Sunday following tho bull the preach er, to quolo from tho managers, "knocked tho entertainment" Other ministers also inveighed ngnlust tho typo of amusement given. The ball was repented this year, nud the mnn ngers Invited several ministers to be on hand. "Hlnky Dink" assured the Invited clergy Hint tho entertainment would be "highly respectnble," "If it nln't." wild Alderman McKonnn lit his limitation, "as roipoetable ns some of tho camp - meetings I have attended I'll give each preacher who attends a present of $100 " As a guaranty that tho affair would meet with ministerial approval "Bath House John," who Is a verso architect. Issued a poem, of which the following Is a ainplo: Btrlke up llie march, professor, ami I will lead the way. We'll trip the light fantastic toe until the break of day. Who knows that ore another ball We'll bo outBlde tho olty halt? Dt gay, but not too guy. Nevertheless not a cleric hove In sight, and tho mnungor.s.

It wasn't 11 fad, for 11 fad Is a now Idea. Tag was bent with ngu when the Indians scalped whites on the site of the Pullman residence. When the new Chicago renewed It the other day the more conserva tive looked upon It as another type of holdup. The snud-bng was christened In Chl cngo. Everybody lu tho town who bud not been hit over the head with the Instru ment of attack expected to bo. And so It cumo about that when citizens at the stations mid in their places of business wore stopped by bevies and bunches of IS THE -VAME OF CltAntTY. humanity, lurgc and small, and asked to come down for some organization or charity they submitted. Then they were tagged. The label meant protec tion from similar requests. But after the day was over tho Idea lived on. Jhe next day and tho next after that, and so ou, there were others who took up the touch, and they havo been at It ever since. They havo eveu Invaded homes and demanded tribute. They havo dono these things In the name of religion and of every charity they could think of. No moro tag day for Chicago. There was some chance to get away from tho sand-bag. UKVEKLI3Y BBUX.
