The Chicago Tribune doesn't favor ap-
propriating money directly from the Fed
eral Treasury to support common schools
I'm the different States. IL has, however,
a scheme Of its own for promoting educa-
ton. IL says: There is but one plan for
extending government aid TO the public
school system Of this country which will
command popular support, and that is. TO
assure the permanency of the whisky tax
nv appIying the revenue therefrOm 10 the
maintenance and extension Of the public
school system. and at the same time to
ro,,ire from every State an additional
ovnendIture of its own money for
the same purpose and non-discrimination
as tn race and color as conditions preee-
dent to the enjoyment of government AID.
This plan would assure fair and impair
tial distribution among the entire people
Of a fund contributed to education by the
drinking classes. The revenue raised in
this way would be no burden upon the
pe0ple. not even upon the consumers of
whisky. aud its use for educational pur-
noses would compensate to some extent
for the evils necessarily incident to the
liberation Of the liquor traffic"
Would ii moi be advisable for the Edu-
cational Convention, nov in session in
Louisville. to give the country its opinion
Of this scheme Of the Tribune.

A Madrid photographer has, according
to the ArchiU, had strange sitter to deal
with lately. A young lady came to his
studio to have her portrait taken. Having
placed her in position, he turned to ar
range his camera, when, casting a last
glance at the posing belle before removing
the cap from the lens, he was Mortified to
see that she was holding the muZZle Of a
revolver to her temple. ''Stop. stop" he
cried; ''you surely do not mean TO kill
YOURSELF You would ruin my business
and. besides. it would be a pity 10 spoil
that facer' The l9dy laughingly replied
1T gives me no pleasure to spoil one Of
your most beautiful productions, but
will tell you what / mean. My betrothed
has deserted me, and l intend to send him
copy OF MY photograph in this position,
with the remark that if he does not return
Immediately | shall pull the trigger"
This astonishing intention was duly car
ried out, and a few weeks later the photo
grapher had the pleasure Of taking the
newly married couple without the re-
volver, which apparently had done its
work harmlessly,

A Fine Region for Raising Sheep.
A correspondent writes us from Kate
Post Office. Patterson, Ga, that he would
like To De put in communication with Mr..
James :. Fielding, Of Buffalo, \. Y, who
passed through Savannah several days
ago on his way to Florida. The MORNING
NEWS published AN interesting in
teryiew with Mr.. Fielding respect
ine his purpose in visiting Florida.
Iu the interview Mr. Fielding
stated bis purpose VAS to buy land and
establish a sheep ranch. lie said he in-
tended % secure his land this fall, and
visit England next winter % purchase "a
lot Of blOoded sheep. The interview
seems ~ have excited considerable inter
est. and has brought us several commu-
nications. The one from Patterson we
call attention 10 because the writer is
anxious for Mr. Fielding 10 visit that sec
ton Of Georgia before purchasing land
elsewhere, and because we
are inclined TO think that
Mr.. Fielding would be pleased with that
section. IL is a healthy country, and II
is especially adapted to sheep raising.
The water is good, the land IL well suited
for grazing purposes, and the climate is
superb all the year round.
We have no doubt that
Mr.. Fielding will find localities
i'm Florida which will be highly recon-
nended 20 hIm for the object he has in
view. II. however, he should not find in
that state exactly what he wants, we
