K*ii*y For Bnral|8chaa1a.
Governor Odell'g recommendation Ibat some method be devised whereby tbe country school districts sball re¬ ceive more support from tbo State haa been actc<l on by tbe Assembly Ways and Meana Committee. After a con¬ ference with the Governor npon that portion of his message relating to tbe additional aid which should tie given to tbe weaker school districts through¬ out the State, the committee deter¬ mined that the approprlatton for the support of the common schools should be Increased $250,000. Wblle economy ia being practiced Id tbe cutting down of needless expenditures, tbe commit¬ tee believes tbat the time has arrived when there should be an Increase In tbe amount appropriated for tbe com¬ mon schools. ThU Is the flrst Increase since 1800.
omarad ta Sell Thalr BodI**.
Four men called at the Syracuse Medical College and offered to sell their bodies for a cash consideration. Poverty was the cause of tbe desire to dispose of their mortal remains, rath¬ er than a desire to help along science. Tbe only name given out was that of Charles Maisch, a former employe of Charles I.lstman, Commissioner of rubllc Safety. Asked wby be wanted tn sell bis boily, he said that he de¬ sired to turn himself over to the medl¬ cnl students so as to give them an Idea of a perfect man. Maisch said that he was willing at any time to sign a deed for bis body, and tbat he did noti expect to live long. It Is liecomlng o common occurrence to have men call to try to sell Ibelr bodies. Several bargains have already been made.

IT WAS not long ago that a Chicago Woman caused comment, some merriment nnd a great deal of serious tbought by advertising that she would give JKXK) to any business man who could within a stated time prove to her satisfaction that be had been nlways and In every least detail of his business transactions scrupu¬ lously honest. Tbe money. It Is be¬ lieved, is still In the bands of tbe woman wbo mnde tbe offer. ThU does not go to show that Chicago bnslnoss men are less honest than those driving bargains elsewhere, but those who followed the course of tbings at tbe time tliat tbe competition for the $1000 was at Its height came to the conclusion that the woman believed that there wos a difference between commercial honesty and -personal hon¬ esty, and, ns a matter of fact, not a few cnme to look on the thing in the same light.
All this is apropos of tbe story of a commercial transaction which went through In Chicago tbe other day nnd where a big 8outhn«'8tern liu.«lneKS man lost one of the chances of Ills life because he had not hewed strnlglit to the line of personal bobcsty. It Is doubtful nlso If anyone would be will¬ ing to stretch the limits of commerclnl Integrity sutflclently to Include bis case.
Twelve years ago n Chicago whole¬ sale grocery flrm, one of the Inrgest In the world, received an order from tbe Southwest for 400 bags of snitar. 100 pounds to tbe bag. Tbe mcnliani wbo ordered the sugar Is for preaeiil purposes named John Fox. Tbp tinn thnt sent the sugar was Wade, Scnlcs & Co.
John Fox hnd many dealings with Wade, Scales & Co. prior to bis sugar order, nnd after It as well, uulil n sboit time ago. Fox wns. and Is. a success- fnl business mnn. He Is rich, but tbere Is to-day one fly In the commercial ointment. Fox has moved bis grent establishment Into Chicago,  but hc Ih

Instead of plenty of light, air. room, elevator ser¬ vice and tbe other tbings that be had expected lo ncipilre, he Is lu cramped quarters and Is maklug less uioiu'y by a large amount each dny tbnn be wuuld be making if be could have secured the place for a business home Ihat be bud set bis heart un.
One day recently a man wllh n som¬ brero on strolled into the office of Wade. Scales &Co. To the flrst uinu he met be said: "I want to see Ibe boss. I have something of importance to talk about."
"Will you send In your uaiuc';" asked the grocery employe.
Tbe visitor took the lilnuk slip of paper offered him and wrote tbiN ou It:
"Mr. Nobody, from Nowhere. Tbia Is my name until after our conversa¬ tion."
"Hive thnt to Ibe boss." lie said, "and tell bim I Ihluk he'll be glud to si>e me, nud tbnt If be tnlkn right I'll give him my right uuiue aud where I came from."
Curiosity more thnn auylliing else led the staid und dignlfiiHl Mr. Wade to nlluw this uncouvenilouul >li!itur n chance to get Into bin privale offlce Once tbelo -Mr. Nobody tpirl: -It III show you where tbere Is fL'tUU due this flriu aud easily colleclnlile. n fl.'iiiil thst you kuow notbiug .il>out. nlint will the lufnriiiatlon be worth to uie?"
"I don't sec how it's possible." said Mr. Wade, "tbat even wllh uur ureal buslneSH tbeie cnuld W tliat largo amouni due us uud we kuow iiuibing about It."
"Tell me what It's worth lo me If uiy Inforiuaiiou Is coriect-^and I'll prove to you by yuur own buoks inside of five luluuti'S thnt It Is coneci-aud then we'll prucciM to bUKlni'Hs."

The suiuliri loeil slrangrr went down I into IIU inside pockel. "tlo to your books. Septeiulier !:",  IMW." b,. said

John Fox $1600 and Interest tbereoo for something like twelve years.
"You see," said the visitor, "I was Mr. Fox's tKwkkeeper for years and years. Wben the bill for 400 pound! of sugar came In I called bis attention lo tbe mistake, and be said: 'I'll pay Ibe bill as It stands, and If they ever send a bill for tbe remaining 300C IHiunds I'll pay that, too, but 1 guess we don't need to worry about the mis¬ take." The oUier day John Fox kicked ine out of his employment for a trivial mistake—kicked me out penniless a I tbat. Wbat I am doing now you may consider a piece of revenge. So It Is laregly, Iftit 1 also need money."
The Westerner left the place with $M in his pocket and the next mnll took B bill to John P» for $lt>00. plus the Interest for twelve yenrs. Actuated by curiosity to know how the mnn would explain the matter. Jlr. Wade Inclosed with the bill a query as to why, having received 40.000 pounds of sugar. Mr. Fox bad sent on pay for only 400 pounds.
Within a week a check for the full amount of the bill and interest was re¬ ceived. John Fox was too gooil a busi¬ ness man not to know that be must pay Instantly, but as far as bi.s dis¬ honesty was concerned. tUls Is wbat be said In bis letter, the ouly bit of writing that appeared except tbe name and figures on the cItMk: _"1 make It a point never to pay until bills are presented. You never sent the bill for tbe extra 3600 pounds.

STRANGE PENSION CASE
SMALL   SUM    HAS INTO  A   FORTUNE.
V)B SSO a Moath tha Eatat* or Rear) Wenaler, aa lB*aaa Valaa Haldla;, Mow AmoonU to S*8,eoS—Story af th* Tet. eraa aad HI* Aeeaaaalatad W*alth.
Starting $11.37 In debt thirty yearf ngo. and depending for a livelihood wholly on n pension of $30 a montb from tbe Oovemment. the estate ol Henry Wensler. of Splkcr. Watiasb t^ount}', lud.. now amounts to more lhau $23,000, and is growing at v rapid rate. What Is still more curious, tbe Qoverument. having paid Wenslet this pension for a generatloa, will, at bis death, receive back the $50 a montb and $8000 in addition. Such a state of affairs has never before come within tbe ken of the bureau offlclals, as re¬ ported by Special Agent Stephens The story of Wensler and his accumu¬ lated wealth is an Interesting one, nnd Is thus related by tbe Wabash corre¬ spondent of the Indiapaolls News:
"During the war he enlisted from Wabash County In the RIgbty-nlntli Indiana Infantry. While on Ihe march In the South he suffered frou prostra¬ tion hy the heat, which caused mentnl derangement, and though he bns uot at any time been violent, he has been, to an extent. Incapable of managing Ills affairs. For twelve years after bis affliction Wensler was confined in the hospital for tbe Insane at Indlannpolls, and was discharged as being bnrmleas and requiring no attention. Appllcn- tlon was made for a pension on ac¬ count of bis mental condition, nnd the case was pending some time. In ISOT bis wife was divorced, and he was left comparatively friendless.
"At Ihat time bis condition was sucb that Jonathan Talmage, a local banker, was appointed guardian, and Mr. Tal- mage's report to the Circuit Court In Septemlier. 1870, showed that Wensler had overdrawn his account with his guardian $11.37. In the next report Mr. Talmage showed that the pension of $00 a month, with a considerable nmount ns arrearages, had tieen pnid. nnd ns Wensler had been supported by Ibe Slate while at tbe hospital, Ihe ar¬ rearages nmountcd to a tidy sum.
"In this way the foundation of the present fortune was laid. Four yenrs ago Mr. Taluinge died, and Tbomas K. Payne, a wealthy land owner of Wn- liasb. wns nppolntcd gunrdlan. Tbo TiMislon Bureau required, about that time, tbnt all reports of guardians of wnrds   receiving   pensions   should   be
lilec-.' of imper.'    I buve tbe paper bere, j made   to   Wnshlugion.     In  his  report
but. Mr. Ko.\, I nm free to coufess thnt I can't Hud nuylblug lu It that eveu liluls nt n renson why Ilie grocers should decline to rent to you."
Jobu Kox beld out bis haud and re¬ ceivi'd tbe slip of pnper from tbe ageut. He unfolded It. He snw tbat It was one of bis own letterheads, nud below the printing be rend this, wrlt- teu In his own hnnd:

X.RAY   TO   TRAP   SMUGGLERS.
It Killed a Bn.lne.l br Which Ihe Ar(en> Uae llepoblic Wa* Uefraiided.
"So far as I have beard," said a man
bo got back from South America recently, "the newest practical appll- cntlon of the X-rny has been made by the Postofflce authorities at Buenos AyreS. TluiV liavM liirna.1 u lAi.k a Covernnient detective, aud a valuable one   It   makes,   too.
"It Is ugalnst tbe Inw In tbe Argeu- Uiie Uepubllc to opeu registered mnll Ul examine tbe contents, and Jewelers have taken advantage ot tbe fact to siiuiggic jewels Into tbe country lu registered letters and packages on n large scale.
"Tbe authorities knew that the smuggling was being done, but there seemed absolutely no wny of stopping It short of repenting the law concern¬ ing registered mnll, and that would bave beeu difficult.
"When they were at their wits' ends one day somebody thought of the X- ray. An experimental apparatus was installed In short order nnd, just as was expected, It revealed watches, cbnlus, rings, gems nnd all sorts of Jewelry In registered mnll lu astonish¬ ing qunutltles.
"Sucb evidence was. of course, suf- tlrlent for u court order to open the packages, and during a single one of the first weeks tbat tbe plan was tried mure thou $20.(100 worth of prop- iTiy was confiscated.
"An X-ray machine Is uow a feature uf every postofflce In the country that receives foreign mall, aud registered better smuggling Is ns dead ns Moses."

With a few exceptions the funds were loaned 111 gllt-cdged security, nt ten per cent, inlciest. nnd inter at eight per cent. Some of the later loans bave been made at six per eent. This Interest wns compounded, and tbe totnl mounted higher nnd higher. Wensler wns uc- lUve. nnd contributed to his own sus¬ tenance. For years he plied his vocn- tion ns n huckster, nnd drove about the county with bla Ilttio wngon. on which were printed In sprawling letters the words: 'H. Weuslerjfugster."
"Recently he went Into business In n smnll wny at Splker's Station, four miles from Wabnsb. He lives alone, and bis expenses for food and clothing are almost nothing.

The honor will be a costly one for Mr. Reld, who spent $20,000 out of his nwn pocket when he was Special En¬ voy at Queen Victoria's Jubllet-. There Was an appropriation of $10,000, but Mr. Reld returned $0000 of this to the Treasury, on the -ground that only $4000 of Ihc money was strictly chargeable ns Oovemment expenses. Tbe rett was spent In entertaining generally the dignity of the rnited Stales. Captain Clark and Oeneral Wilson are not wealthy meu, but the burden of tbe expense will rrffHIlIll"'''"
Captain Clark will l)e a notable figure In London, os one of tbe few men. perhaps the only man, taking part In the ceremonies who has figured in a great modem naval battle. Offi¬ cially, however, the Admirals sent by other nntlouH. who bave never smelt IMiwder except In target practice, will tnke prccedeuce of the man who com¬ manded the Oregon. Considerable re¬ gret Is expressed tbat Captain Clark cannot go as a Rear-Admiral at least. If not as a Vice-Admirnl.
