The arrival of Col. JACK CHM in St.

WESTCHEsTER, Pa, June 11.-Dr. W.
D. Hartman astonished number of his
friends this morning by the announcem ent
that he had been living on locusts for some
day. He dug up number yesterday after
noon, had them fried in butter and this
morning called on some friends and invited
them to partake of the lunch. The doctor
remarked that it was necessary to eat half
dozen to get their flavor, and after that they
would be eaten with relish. He called them
baby locusts and they were fresh from the
earth. They are very abundant in
the surrounding groves, covering the trees
and fences so thlcl1ly that they can ba
gathered up by the bushel. When,the doc
tor was asked how he prepared the locusts
he said after gathering them from the
earth he took them home. washed them
through six courses of pure cold water until
they were perfectly clean, then they were
put into boiling water and boiled some
twenty minutes, after which the legs were
removed and the bodies placed into pan.
seasoned with pepper and salt, cooked in
butter until they become nice brown color
and quite crisp. They are meaty, he con-
tinued, and have delicious taste. He gave
them to a number of friends to taste, and
they pronounced them excellent.

INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION.

During the national conference of correc-
tions and charities i'll Washington city, Mr..
PHILIP c. GARRETT of Philadelphia de
livered an address in which he compared
TIE methods of treatment of criminals in
the last century with the methods likely to
be deemed wise and advisable i'll the future.
In speaking of tie causes of crime, he
dwelt at some length upon heredity and the
influence of criminal relations and associa-
tons upon the young. Such measures as
will prevent tie children of offenders from
entering upon lives of crime and save them
from disease and wretchcdneSS, are, it can
not be disputed, among the most hopeful OF
lasting results. And so he suggested kin
dergartens to lift them from the gutter and
to give them taste for education; kinder
kitchens to teach the little girls household
work: primary schools with manual train
ING. and trade schools rendered necessary
by the exclusion of apprentices from work
by trades unions. He advocated reform
schools for the younger class of criminals,
who are now often sent to jails,
and recommended that such schools be
situated in the country in separate home
like cottages, accommodating not over fifty
pupils each, with honor as the basis of dis
cipline.
At ameeting recently held in Hobolken to
discuss the formation of an industrial asso-
citation, Gen. GEORGE 3. MCCLELLAN,
who presided, said that our common school
system was defective in that there is too
much theory in it and too little practice the
effect of which is to create an idea among
scholars that to work with the hands is de-
grading. He said that complaints came to
him, while he was governor, from all the
large manufacturing centers of New Jersey
that it was difficult to get trained workers
from Americans. ''The longer ] live"
said the general, ''the more am satisfied
that in this and in other countries nothing
is more important than well-trained labor,
and that in teaching our young men
there is no degradation, but the
highest honor in following indus
trial pursuits" Judge MCGILI, who
addressed the same meeting, said there
were $50 apprentices in Jersey City who
were going out t. make living. and there
were 500 or 400 pupils in the high schools

Boston Herald.

Boston Herald.
1t is stated that the owners of factories To-
Gated in Hamilton, Mass, have imported $50
French-Canadians to work in their mills-ths,
too, it is said, in spite of the fact that there
are hundreds of idle natives about that local
ity eager and anxious for work at q fair
price. 1t is this system of human importation
which has been made use of from time
to time by the textile manufacturers in New
England that renders absurd the statements
they frequently make about the keen interest
they have in the welfare of the American
workingman, and their unwillingness to have
him brought into competition with the pauper
labor of the old world 1t is stated that at
the present time not 20 per cent. of the oper-
atives in the New England cotton mills are
American born, although generation or so
ago the mills throughout these states were
chiefly operated by American men and women.
The change that has taken place in the inter-
val furnishes conclusive proof that the effect
of the protective tariff in these large in
dustries has been. to drive Americans out of
employment and to give it to those who are
willing to work for wages that are beneath the
scale which an American workman considered
necessary for simple but comfortable liveli-
hood. The worst feature about this Hamilton
importation is that the Canadians who have
been induced to come and take the place Of
native workingmen do not intend to make the
United States their permanent hOme but
hope, after few years of labor, to retire
with the money they have laid up to the vii
lages and towns on the banks of the lower st.

GIADsToNF,s DEFEAT.

The New York Times expresses surprise
that GLADSTONE should have been defeated
on question of finance, and that a budget
of his government should be thrown out
when even his detractOrS have allowed him
the credit of being England's greatest finan-
cer and pre-eminent maker OF budgets
which proved to be both passable and work.
able. 1t sees, however, several causes Of
discomfort with the budget. as, indeed,
there were sure to be. since it involved a
considerable increase of taxation. The in
come tax had already been strained as far
as it would go, inSOmuch that OF the &c.,
900, 900 increase of taxes within the last
five years as compared with the five
years preceding, the payers of the in
come tax had contributed in that tax and in
direct taxes upon property &22, 900, 900, the
increase from all other sources amounting
to only $4,000. 600. Mr.. CHILDERs pro-
posed to increase largely the tax on beer,
and economists had argued that this prOpO-
sition was entirely just, seeing that equal
quantities of alcohol were taxed much more
heavilyin any other form, whether of native
or foreign spirits or of foreign wines, than
when prepared in the form of beer
Nevertheless. the proposal to increase the
beer tax excited strong opposition. The
brewing interest is very powerful in Great
Britain, and the brewing interest evidently
inspired the discomfort which found express
sion in Sir MICHAEL HICKS-BEA CHS at
tack. 1t is not to be supposed that the gov

question alone. No doubt many, perhaps
most, of those who voted down the budget
did so out ofmere partisanship, without any
reference to the validity of the specific criti
cisms made upon it. They hated the govern
ment on account of its shortcomings i'll the
Soudan and its submission to Russian aggres-
sion, and they voted accordingly that it had
unduly increased the beer tax. But if the
budget alone would not have Sufficed to beat
the government neither would its foreign pol
icy alone. Whatever may be thought of the
situation of the government with reference
to Russia, it is certainly no worse than the
situation of the government after the fall Of
Khartoum, which was so bad that the gov
ernment eagerly seized upon the Russian
question as a diversion. And at that time,
the issue being fairly made upon the policy
OF England in the Soudan. the government
escaped cenSure. The majority for the
government was very small then; the ma
jority against it is very small now. The
difference may represent the votes of the
members who voted with the opposition
because they objected to the beer tax;

Sutton of the steamer Fawn scored the
quickest time the past week ever made be-
tween Aitkin and Grand Rapids on round
trip. Leaving at II a. m. on Tuesday he
blew his whistle on his return trip when ap-
preaching our levee at 2 p. m. on Thurs
day, just fifty-One hours after leaving-six
hours the fastest time ever made. The

the trip is $40 miles in distance. w. FL.
Lawrence and ten of his men came down
on the Fawn. The drive is sweeping

Hot for GundersOn.

Eau Claire Free Press: A mail agent
who is acquainted with the facts in the
Cumberland postoffice defalcation was in
terviewed by Free Press reporter. In
spector Bixby, well known here, has had
charge of the pursuit of Gunderson, who.
when his defalcatiOn came out in March,
fed to Europe, taking So, 900 or 81, 600 with
him. being defaulter as postmaster to the
extent of about 1000, as school treasurer
about $500, and as town treasurer in quite
a sum. Since his flight, about 81, 800 has
been spent by the government to capture
him, of which sum about $500 went for ca
blegrams, and the rest for photographs, cir
culars and detective work. He was at last
traced to little town in Norway, and it is
thought that he is now ''as good as caught"
Inspector BiXby is considered terror in
pursuit of his class of criminals, and per-
haps much of his success in hunting game
of that kind is due to the fact that he was
formerly newspaper man in Iowa.

INJUSTICE TO LINCOLN.

Ii Mr.. CHARLES A. DANA is correct in
his "reminiscences of Mr.. LINCOLN it seems
that the latter gentleman's notion of civil
service was to ''give and take" or in other
words to ill out a list of Republican spOils-
men, to be taken equally from the two fac
tons OF the same party, and he would put
them into office. That is the policy Mr..
LINCOLN announced to Mr. DANA and his
friends who visited the president soon after
his Inauguration to demand an equal share
of the New York patronage with THURLow
WEED and WILLIAM FL. SEWARD. Mr..
LINCOLN has been looked upon as model
president, and for this reason it is to be
hoped that Mr.. DANA's memory has
proved treacherouS Otherwise he makes
Mr.. LINCOLN to appear in public light as the
most offensive partisan that has ever been
in office. Here are the words Mr.. DANA
attributes to Mr.. LINCOLN when the SpOils-
hunters visited him: zone side shall not
gObble up everything. Make out a list OF
the places and men you want and will en-
deavor to apply the rule of give and take"
1t is unfortunate for Mr.. LINCoLN's repu-
tatiOn that Mr.. DANA should have recalled
this Renaissance at all, and particularly at
this time when the spoils system is in such
general disrepute. Mr.. LINCOLN is the
only one of the Republican presidents who
was supposed never to have been thoroughly
indoctrinated with the Republican ideas
and methods of civil service. So willie this
Renaissance conflicts with the previously
formed opinion of L1NCoLN's character
and methods, still Mr.. DANA occupies too
high position to have called in question his
veracity or even his memory, and it is to be
history he will renew the statement with
more circumstantIal details.

whose future was by no means as certain.

urge the Importance of system of indus
trial education in connection with the COM
mon schools, and it is gratifying to find
such distinguished persons as Mr.. GAR
RETT, Gen. MCCLELLAN and Judge Nc
GILL maintaining the correctness of the
theories we have advanced. The same cry
is now coming up from every city in the
country. 1t is not necessary that the indus
trial education shall be established at the
expense of the grammar school, although
there is abundant testimony to show that if
either Is to be sacrificed it would be better
for the rising generation that the ordinary
grammar school studies should give place to
mechanical instruction.

Strange's column, which arrived here this
morning, is making preparations for Big
Bears reception. Maj. Hatton's mounted
men arrived yesterday in time to see the
Indians, supposed to be Chippewayans,
cross the river. There are seven lodges in
the band, as shown by deserted camp on
the south bank. The Indians are pushing
north very rapidly and it is impossible to
follow them, owing to the dense forest
and muskegs north of the river. Indian
scouts line the opposite bank, watching
our movements. Detachments of infantry
will be stationed for three miles east along
the river, and scouts will be sent out On
foot to locate Big Bear. The country is
heavily wooded and marshy in every direc-
ton, thus retarding horseback travel. It
has been discovered that cache of ninety
five sacks of flour is here and also large
cache Of furs. The transport service will
return to Fort Pitt tomorrow for supplies.
