THE NEW MOVE IN EDUCATION. UTILITARIAN TBAININfi^MINfi Techsical Schools dud College ia Nov&^Scotia aid ^IKeir Beaefit In hrova Scotia local technical schools are y6eing established in the larger industrial center* where the local authorities are responding; to the invitation J of ine provincial government and are <f ULOertaking to furnish their portion of the nnancial burden attendant thereon. Already four of the principal manufacturing towns and cities have entered into the plan and there are now three of tnese schools in operation with a large and constant attendance. The wortungmen throughout the province have been waiting for a long time for men educational opportunities as these schools offer and are showing their appreciation by enrolling in large numbers. At present sll clauea^tre in the evening, so that anyone.who .works during the daytime, may .not be withheiu from attendance. A - antral college of engineering is established where any ambitious .boy may receive a first clam scientific education at a very low cost and native born men can be trained to operate native industries. At this central college scientific research in industrial problems will be undurtaken which wiii gieatly assist the future material progress of Nova Scotia. 'i no men in the various trades, such as carpentry, boiler making, iron and steel makiug, machinists, founders, pattern makers, etc., are assisted in learning the scientific principles underlying their various trades in the techt nical schools carried on in the various industrial centers.. Coal miners are instructed in the theoretical side of their difficult occupation and stationary engineers and mechanics at the colliers are taught the scientific basis of .their occupations. Tnis recital indicates.wbat must be done oy New Jersey and every other state and with the least delay possible, if me public^ ocessity is regarded. Before an audknea of 600 representatives of the manufacturing, commercia and educational interests of the Middle West, four men on the evening ol January 83d at Chicago, presented the first comprehensive program of a new industrial education for the youngster who works with his hands. T.i j occasion was the opening session of the first convention of the Nati nal Society for the Promotion of IoJUstrial Education, held at a dinner at ui i Auditorium Hotel. The four men were Theodore Roosevelt, Presi- 1 dent of the United States, (by letter) ; Cuarles W. Eliot, president of Harvard Univetsity ; James V. Van Cleave, president of the National Manufacturers' Association, and Henry L. Pritcheit. president of the Carnegie • Foundation. On the boy who goes into the trades. «aid the speakers, depends America's ability to retain the industrial supremacy given by the country's ' natural resources. And toward the boy who goes into the trades, they added, the educational effort of the next decade must be directed. "My interest in this movement," wrote President Roosevelt, "arises in ire than ail else out of the desire to see the American boy have his best opportunity for development." Direct, practical suggestion for the eituulishmeut of ^ system .of trade acnools as a part of the educational equipment was the1 underlying note of the addresses. Tnere was an idea in the olden ^time — an i it is not yet dead — that whoever dacated ought not to work— that he - lould use his head] and not his hi n i». Graduates were ashamed to be found engaged in manual labor, in pi'Ki-jiing fields, in sowing or in ga i ring grain. To this, manly kind of dependence they preferred ] the ga ; and the precarious existence of an . appreciated poet, borrowing their m > / from their friends, and their id - from the dead. The educated ten i led the useful ss degrading, — th vere willing to stain their souls to i :p their hands white. T . object of all education should be to i ;rease the usefulness of man— us neos to himself and others. E human being should be taught th .is first duty is to take care of hi f, and that to be self-respecting hi .st be self-supporting. To live oc labor of others, either by force ,wi enslaves, or by cunning Which fy ur by borrowing or begging, is wJ 9 7 dishonorable. Every man sb u 1 be taught some useful art His hi should be educated as ; well as hi id. lie should be taught to deal w hings as they are— with life as it This would give a feeling of icdi lence. which is the firmest founds of honor, of character. Eveiy m no wing that he is useful admires hi. If.— Robert G. IngereoU.

CORNER8 THE HARP8 IN ERIN. LleweUyif Buys Up All in the Island During a Famine. It Is not generally known that one of the first corners formed .in any _ market was a corner on harps. There U is a story told of one of the famous Llewellyns who bad taken np his residence in England to the effect that '6 during the great famine In Irg)and he went through almost every section of the Emerald Isle exchanging much desired gold for harps belonging to the famine-stricken peasants. Naturally the peasants were glad enough to sell their harp^ and anything else they possessed for food or money to buy food, and the first thing Irishmen knew they were practically r- harp I ess. Scarcely a single Irish inn strument could be scared up in any e community, and then they began to ,f wonder what had become of their u harps. By that time the dread and , horror of the famine had passed and the ephemeral spirits of the sons of Erin were light and would make jnerry, * but how could they sing and dance without their beloved harps? ie Then it was discovered one man e owned practically all the Irish harps, ir and when he did part with them it is ^ said that the price received was far In advance of that given some time before. History has not recorded s aecand corner in these celestial tnstru16 menu. a , Long on One Newspaper. ColomI Stephen N.

BUT ONE WOMAN 1 : TOWED. lOrtsnwL] - • • ? • Many years ago there existed In Europe a principality, Cntpu'—la. so small that its "population ourij. .od only a few thousand persons. They were very exclusive, never adopting foreign citizens and intermarrying among each other. The consequence was that hereditary diseases became so plentiful among them as To threaten their ruin. Theodore VIL, then prince, at last Issued a decree prohibiting marriage between persons related within the fifth generation. Under this law marriage was extremely difficult One of the first persons on whom the edict reacted was the hereditary prince Theodoric, who, like the people, must marry within the principality. At the time it was issued be was studying at a foreign university, but was about to finish his course and was expected to return and marry in order to secure the succession. Meanwhile his father directed the heralds to, examine the family trees of the nobility with a view to discovering some family Into which the young prince could legally marry. They reported that but one family, the Count of Vervln'a, came within the limit -In this family was one unmarried woman, Yergtlia, twenty years old. In every way attractive and a very suitable match for the young prince. Theodore at once sent the prime minister to the count Vergilla's father, with a proposition for his daughter. The minister returned, reporting that the count felt greatly honored by the proposition, but his daughter had declared that she was not inclined to marry. She was a wayward girl who had always been need to having her own way, nnd her father's command that she should return a suitable answer to her sovereign had had no effect upon her. Theodore was much perplexed. He wrote of the refusal to his son. But Theodoric paid nOoAttention to it and after bis graduation wrote his father that he was minded to travel. To this his father replied, advising him —he was overfond of the boy and seldom commanded— to come home at once, that the only woman he could marry was accepting the attention of a young foreign artist who bad recentappeared and solicited the privilege of painting her portrait She sat for every day. and her father feared the headstrong girl was in love with and would disregard not only the wish of her sovereign, but the national custom of marrying only within the country. To this warning the prince did not reply, and bis father concluded that he had gone beyond the reach of letters. Meanwhile the artist. Rodrigo Nunez, young Spaniard, was busy with the portrait He was very respectful, keephis distance from the highborn dame, but she noticed whenever he 6trove to interest her in order to catch best expression that he was a man of culture. Gradually as Vlrgilia gave encouragement nc showed by his manner that he lored her. and one day. forgetting herself, she called out a declaration. Then the girl, with hef eyes bent upon the floor, told him of the proposition" for her hand for the prince. "And will you accept?" asked Rodrimournfully. "1 have declined It thus far." "And In the end?" "What would you consider my duty?" - The artist did not reply. Turning to , the portrait he painted absently. The ! girl repeated her question, j "It is for yon to moke up your own ! mind what that duty directs," he said. "If I do not marry the prince our people will be the sufferers." "And If yon do marry him— you will : the sufferer." "Yes" Her face was averted. Re 6tole up , her, placed his arm around her waist, and her head dropped on Els . Suddenly he released her. "I love yon too well/' he said, "to ask yon to do that which yon do not conceive to be your duty." When the artist left Vergella It was the last seen of him in the principality. be went or what became of him no one knew. In time Vergella informed her father that she would do what the Interest of her sovereign and bis peqple required of her. Her decision was communicated to the ' prince, who wrote her a frank letter thanking ber for at last giving consent. "Perhaps you love another," he said, "but I trust to win ; I heart in time." j He did not seem inclined to hurry jl bogie, and rumor -said that the women |l of foreign countries were loath to lose I Finally, however. wbelTbls father I pointed out to him that under the dr- I cumstances his continued absence was f delaying and endangering the aaccea | aion. he wrote requesting the court to I make preparations for the ceremony. I to announce the date, and he would re- | turn in time. r While the preparations were making I Vfergelia remained shut up at home. ] The story got about that ehe was sac->. J rificing herself for the common good. ; | and she was much beloved for It The | prince, on the contrary, was i J becoming unpopular for remaining 1 1 abroad at such a time.

However, be made { amends for his inattention by going { straight to the home of his affianced } having sent word ahead asking I no one might be present at the!- [ meeting. When he entered the | room Vergilia fell fainting through ex- 1 1 of joy into his arms. c The prince ' | and Rodrigo Nones were one and the i j same person. HOPE HOPKIHB. j|
