The steady growth of various contagious diseases In all parts of the city has convinced the members of the school board that it will bo necessary for the good of the children and teachers to close all the schools nttho end of today's exercises. CMOS of uicailoa , diphtheria , scirlet fever and la grippe bavo been constantly multiply ing among both the pupils and the tonoliOM. At least 25 per cent of the scholars In the Washington avenue school are down with ono or the other diseases and the same pro portion of sickness will be found In nil the other bulldingj. Most of the cases ara not considered dnu- perous , but they tire bi'l ' enough to unlit the pupils for work , \vhllo those who are kept out by really serious cases nro constantly getting behind their classes. It was thought beat , therefore , that the schools should bo closed ns above stated for at least ono week , and at the end of that time , if the conditions remain as they nro now , the vacation may bo extended.

Ho looked lil < 9 u very ordinary man us ho stood iu tlio doorway of the train dispatcher's oflleo ut the jilor. says the Oakland Tribune. Ho was tlrcsbcd in an ordinary suit of clothes. His rather thin face was framed in a thin , reddish board , through which peupoil a pair of blue eyes. Taking it all in nil ho wns u very ordinary looking man , and vet that man was tno most noted tulugrnpli operator in the United States , ami poi- Bibly in iho world. It was "Old Ho-ry. " Everybody who is , or pretends to be , n telegraph operator or a train dispatcher knows Old liouy. Wherever there runs u line by tologrnph wire , there is known that name , and it is pretty safe to say trial Old Bogy himself has boon pretty nearly wherever the telegraph hns gone. Old Bogy's other name ! s Twenty-five years ace Old Bogy for Old Bogy ho was even when ho WHS a lad was a telegraph operator In the employ of the United States government. Bofry was a telegraph operator in tlio cupitol nt Washington , and ho handled all the important messages thut oamo there from the tront. Ho was trusted and the confldonco was not abused After awhile ho wns sent to the front and was in the midst of the llirhtlng with General Grant , and ho played no unimportant part in tlie great strife. Ho was tin export operator a bettor does not exist ami lie held many a great eocfot during these troublous times. After the war Old Bogy began to drift. IIo wandered from railroad to railroad , and from telegraph ollico to telegraph ollico , from ono onil of the country to another , and before long tlio name of Old Bogy became a proverb among telegraph men. IIo had gained ho bad habit of unrest that hud fastened itself upon him during the war , und before - fore long ho bcuamo the most noted tramp operator in the United States. IIo seemed to have lost nil desire or numty lor sionuy woric , ana while His ability was of the highest , ho would work u-few weeks and then suddenly leave , and do nothing until his money wns exhausted. And so ho traveled , working a , little , borrowing a great deal and often getting passes from point to point on the rnll- roiul linos. Seven or eight yonra ago Bogurdus wns sent to China to put in operation a system of train dispatching on the lirst railroad telegraph in that country. IIo was gene four years and when ho re turned ho was given n big reception nt Chattanooga , nnd tlmt wns the beginning of his second downfall. Pivo voars ngo Old Bogy drifted out to San Francisco and was om ployed in the Western Union ollico in that city. IIo worked there for fcovoral weeks , nnd just before pay day ho went out of the ollico and never re turned to got the money that was duo him. him.Old Old Uogy's undo died in Rochester , N.

A valuable Newfoundland dog , named Major , who strayed away from his own- r's houfo , was claimed In all good fnlth > y another gentlornnn , who recognized ho dog at his own lost Newfoundland , says n writer In St. Nicholas.

A veok was taken up with conflicting tes- .iniony , nnd neither judge nor jury wns ho wiser or batter prepared to render a Icclslon.

Nature's Tint , A California invention has just boon patented which bids fait to completely revolutionize the methods now in vogue ion decorating g uiss mm porcelain. J. no object of the invention is to so dcorato such surfaces as to produce and perman ently fix upon them impressions of lig- ures > , portraits or Bconcry. A sheet of glass or porailnin is covered with an emulsion , and after being subjected to a dry heat , is placed over a photograph , engraving , etching or any kind of draw ing , Tlio gln b or porcelain , after being sensitized , is exposed for about three minuets in a strong sunlight. After the oxpobeuro is made the picture in devel oped by the use of ceramic powders of. apy color desired. Tlio powder is taken dry and sifted evenly In the desired nhco and burnished over with n soft brush. Gradually the images develop on the nlates , green folitigo , brown trim let and branches appear , vivid and true to nature. "Whon the image is thin duveloued a thin coating of llux is ap plied , the plate Is put into n drinj' fur nace und the picture becomes perma nent. The plates thus decorated can be made of any size and can be used for all purposes where stained glass has hith erto been employed for house and church decoration. Specimens of the now pro cess wore bhown to a San Francisco Chronicle reporter. Largo sheets of glass having pictures of Washington , Lafayette a sleep ing Cunid , country houses , the portrait of a lady , figured decorative designs and scriptural subjects have been produced. The cost of making glass pictures for door panels , for 'church windows , for steamboat saloon decoration will ho ma tonally rouuccu ny tno no\v \ process. The Inventors intend lo prepare a series of California views in the natural tints for the world's fair exhibition , Not only can the picture bo produced In vivid colorings , hut the use of various ceramic powers enables a roproduulioii In half tones nnd hues similar lo tlio coloring- hroniotype photographs ; -with all the shades and lights , in the most artistic manlier.

Kxtnttliif ; " - A most villainous instance of extorting confession under threat ? and Intimida tion by porno native policemen of the district force Is at present pending in the court of 1' . Grey , joint magistrate of Allahabad , says the Morning Post. From the evidence already recorded it appears thai some tlmi in September last the Sirsawan police discovered the body of an infant In a tank ; an investi gation followed , in Iho course of which a woman named Gophni , of Iho 1'lmkur caslo , was suspected of having given birth lo the deceased Infant and made nway with it. The unfortunate woman was apprehended and made to undergo an examination b no fewer than a score of village- midwives - wives , who were divided in their opin ion as to her maternity. The woman was , however , detained for a considera ble time by the police , who , It Is alleged , used throats towards her and intimi dated her by waylng that if she did not confess to Iho child found being hors , slio would bo operated on by a medical man to arrive at the truth. As a result , the unfortunate woman made the re quired confession nnd was committed Goeth's Visit to Carlsbad.
