Blaisdell, Oaest et Boylea Cart, lege. te Appear at Caancll Blaffa hew , Vaair Dare. Tha aalfteet typewriter artist in tha world tha man who holds the, world's champion ship for speod and accuracy In typewriter operation Is coming to Omaha 'Wednesday. Ilia name is H. O. Blaisdell and he Is In tha employ of the school department of a typewriter company of New Tork City. Mr. Blalsdell'a mission to Omaha is to appear aa a fe&turs of tha Boylea college ibtblt at tba Council Bluffs horticultural how. While tba show Is primarily a fruit exposition, many other lines of endeavor are also on display, and tha Boylea college booth la one pf tha most Interesting fea tures,, thahow. .tofvlbera the visitor see a U-year-old girl doing rapid type writer work while blindfolded, . typewriter operated by electricity, and a Burroughs adding machine moving by tba same light ing power. 1 Mr. Blaisdell arrives Wednesday and re mains In the Boylea booth until Saturday. On October IT, this year, In a contest held n New York City, be made a record of an average of 190 words a minute for a solid hour. This beats Rosa Frits and all tha other experts that have aver been be fore tha publlo. Though Mr. Blaisdell will do bis fancy typist work In Council Bluffs ho will, of Bourse, spend a part of Us time on this aids of tha river as guest of tha Boylea college. The faut that H. B. Boylea Is president of tha Central Teachers' associ ation, an organisation which Includes rep resentatives of the beet commercial colleges in the United Statea, la perhaps tha secret af why tha tyepwriter company consented to send their high-priced expert here to make a demonstration. There are several other swifts" In New Tork' who rank high, but nona of them are tha equal of Blaisdell tor speed and accuracy. One hundred and nine words per minute Is con sidered lightning tyepwriter work, and not only stenographers, but tha employers of stenographers and business people In gen aral, will watch the demonstration with mush Interest.

MMFL1F1F.D ARITHMETIC. Kiiarators Hid tiood-Bv tv Square Root and Complex Fraetloaa Mathematicians have seen a great light! They agreed recently that calculus and mensuration, the greatest common denom inator, square root and complex fractions and a few of the other brain-twisting tor tures of the coun-e In arithmetic might as well be dumped into oblivion, so far as the public school child Is concerned. At a meeting of the Philadelphia section , of teachers of mathematics of the middle states and Maryland, held In Houston hall, not one protesting voice was raised against Superintendent Brumbaugh's new simpli fied course In arithmetic, reports the North American. The only criticism was that it is not simple enough, and that while Phila delphia's educators were about It they might as well get rid of wall-papering prob lems and cut out the everlasting type of example that begins drearily, "How many yards of carpet will It take?" The tOO teachers who crowded the audi torium heaved a concerted sigh of relief when Dr. Brumbaugh announced the demise of the least common multiple and tha great est common denominator. "Too many teachers In this city and all over the state and country," he said, "have been riding an arithmetic hobby and cram ming it down pupils' throats In season and out of season. Now, arithmetic Is only useful as it will apply to the child's "future life. What Is the use of teaching a boy who la going into a mill at It bow to find the square root or calculate In complex fractions? What he needs Is a working knowledge of tha elementa of arithmetic and an insight into current Industrial activities. "The new course alma to do tills. It has done away with dead subjects, and simpli fies the statement of problems. It has shifted the work upward in the grades, so that the children will not learn Ilka parrots, but will be old enough to reason out their examples." VNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN.

Wooldridje Attacked WMle Trying- to Preserve Order at Creighton Hall. IT. l Wooldridge, a humane officer doing special police duty, was attacked from behind, his club and revolver taken from him and was beaten to Insensibility at t:S o'clock last night by a gang of ruf fians at Crelgbton dancing hall. Fifteenth and Harney streets. With four gashes in his scalp and his left eya swollen shut the officer was taken to polioe headquarters and treated by Police Surgeons Peppers, Bishop and Harris. He was also probably Internally injured by his assailants. The attack came as the result of the officer trying to arrest a young man who had started a fight upon the dancing floor over a girl. Ha had taken the prisoner to the bottom of the stairs, preparatory to calling the police patrol, when four of the prisoner's comrades dashed down the steps behind the officer, Jerked his club from his hand and began beating him. Woold ridge had reached Into his pocket for his revolver when one of the men adminis tered the knockout blow upon his head. The revolver dropped from his bands and was snatched up by one of the rowdies. Lying helpless upon the sidewalk, the men kicked tha policeman unmercifully. His heavy rosewood club waa splintered upon his head, while the crowd of dancers who hud by that time descended from the hall, gathered and looked on. The ruffians and Wooldridge's prisoner made their escape before a call was turned In to police headquarters, finally by a man who happened Into McVlttlea cigar store upon the corner of Fifteenth and Harney Streets. Policeman Wooldridge says he knows the men who attacked him. ' Captain Dunn sent out orders to all of the policemen telling them to bring them In, and it they should attempt to resist to use all their available weapons upon them. It has been customary for two policemen or plain clothea men to attend the dances at Creighton hall to maintain order. Be cause of a shortage of men last night Wooldridge was assigned to watch the dances at the hall alone. Earlier in the evening Wooldridge had broken up a fight participated In by the same man over whose arrest he was ao brutally attacked. ' Id ) the final affray the officer found that thainlan carried a large revolver. Wooldridge waa taken late last night to his home, Sl'27 California street. He was In a serious condition.
