Manual training has laid hold upon
the Imagination of the American people
The register of the Chicago Manual
Training School contains tho names of
visitors from all parts of this country,
from Canada, and from England. On
last commencement-day seven hundred
persons visited the school, passing
through the several laboratories and
witnessing the exercises. 1t is true.
many Of those visitors were relations
and personal friends of students; but re-
lations and personalfr1ends of students OF
schools OF the old regime visit them very
frequently. Many of the visitors OF
manual training schools are women.
They are enthusiasts on the subject oil
the new education. Their comprehcn-
sion of it is clearer than that OF men.
This is doubtless because they are
possessed of higher degree of intui-

less aversion to labor Froebel found

MONDRAGON,s ESCAPE.
How the MeXIcan Murderer was
Saved from the Texas Officers.

How the MEXICAN Murderer was
Saved from the Texas Officers.
FORT WORTH, Aug. 23.-The circum-
stances under which MonGragon, the
Mexican officer who murdered Arresures.
escaped arrest by the Texas authorities
are very interesting. On the day after
the murder a couple Appointment citizens
OF San Antonio were at Eagle Pass, and
they there met Judge Ware, the gentle
man who first directed the attention of
the Texas government TO the outrage.
Judge Ware was in high state of indig-
nation, and was bent upon securing the
punishment of the murderers. He
told the san Antonio gentlemen that
MOndragon had just gone up to San An
tonic, and requested them to have him
hunted down and arrested as soon as
they arrived there, promising that he
would prosecute him. The San Antonio
gentlemen agreed and on reaching their
homes they lost no time in looking up the
bloodthirsty MondraAon. They dis
covered him in the Mexican quarter of
the city and had him Swallowed while
they teegraphed back to Eagle Pass
to inquire whether Judge Ware
was still determined to prose-
cute. Judge Ware happened to be ab-
b6Ib uOlllt w A6u llit ltlbHTdIn AT-
rived there and it was delivered to his
partner. By an unfortunate coincidence
this partner had just accepted retainer
TOR the firm to defend the Texan officials
who had assisted in delivering Arresures
to Mondragon's custody. 1t would not ap-
pear altogether consistent for the firm to
assume the prosecution of Mondragon
while defending his associates in crime,
so Judge Wares partner telegraphed
back to San Antonio that Mondragon
might be allowed to go unmolested so far
as he and the Judge were concerned.
Thus a splendid opportunity for retribu.
ton was lost, the murderer was allowed
to leave town, and he was soon across the
border.
When Judge Ware returned to Eagle
Pass and learned what had been done in
his absence, and that the red-handed
Mexican had slipped out of the clutches
of the law, he was almost beside himself
He is still determined TO bring the MUIR
derer to justice, and IL in full sympathy
with Gov. Ireland, whose telegram order
ing MOndragOn's arrest reached San An
tonic soon after the bird had flown.
"Had once gotten my hands on him, ("
exclaimed Gov. Ireland, "they would
have had a fine time ever getting him
away from me-"

to-day: at is true that Blondin is to

1t quiet, for we desired nothing said until

that Blondin's rubber shoes will stick to it.

the Cause of Excitement.
CHARLESTON. Aug. 25.-Something OF a
political excitement RACES here now over
| the appointment OF United States Dis
trict Judge. The present incumbent, Hon.
Geo. S. Bryan, has held the appointment
| since reconstruction and is far over the
| age at which he is entitled to retire with
his salary. During the troublous
times OF '76 and the four
years following. when half the
white citizens OF the State were under ar
rest for alleged political ofenses, Judge
| Bryan stood like stone wall in defense
of the liberties OF his countrymen, and
by dividing the court Bond, the Circuit
| Judge. presiding with him) enabled the
defendants to get their cases before the
United States Supreme Court. After the
election OF President Cleveland it was
known that Judge Bryan intended to re-
sign, and the choice OF his successor be-
came at once matter OF grave import
ance.
THE CHOICE OF THE BAR.
After considerable cauvassing, the bar
OF the State by very large majority Sc
lected Col T.. II. SimonLOn, OF this city,
whose appointment was thereupon looked
upon as certain as soon as Judge Bryan
determined to lay aside the onerous duties
of his office. The result of the delibera-
tons of the recent State nominating con-
ventiOn, however, has somewhat changed
the condition of affairs. Gen. Edward
McCrsdy, another prominent lawyer of
Charleston, was candidate before that
convention for Governor. The Charleston
delegation to the convention found itself,
therefore, loaded with two candidates,
McCrady for Governor and G. r. Miles,
the present incumbent, for Attorney Gen.
eral.
sECTIONALISM RUNNING HIGH.
Sectional feeling runs very high in the
upper part of the State, where, strange to
say, the most bitter feelings prevail
against the metropolis of the State. AS q
consequence nobody from Charleston was
elected. Gen. McCrady thereupon ac-
cuses the Charleston delegation of sacrI-
| fcing him. and now announces himself
as a candidate for the District Judgeship.
This makes the situation somewhat per-
! picking, as both candidates are able
men and both have strong hackers. The
same thing occurred when the Collector
| of Customs was to be appointed. There
were two candidates IN the field, both
with strong backing, and as a consequence
the President appointed dark horse. 1t
is not improbable, therefore, that a dark
horse may become the United States Dis
trict Judge, although the friends of Col.
SimOnton seem confident OF their strength.
In the meanwhile Judge Bryan has not
yet resigned.

time that his pastor began, and is not
happy In the sport. The teacher OF Mr..

wheeling tells this story OF him:
Mr.. Clemens objected to assuming
costume suitable to the exercise. and one
day started out 10 ride wearing long
linen buster over his clothes. His teacher
gently suggested that it might be incon-
venient. MIR. Clemens thought not The
young man feared tall, but Mark Twain
said that he would risk it. They had not
gone four rods from home, however. when
he began TO revile the tapping thing, and
In less than ten minutes the skirt was
caught upon the wheel and carried up
into the OF the machine, and instantly
the author OF "lnnOcents Abroad" lay
upon his face IN the dirt, with the
machine Gathering about his ears.
His companion alighted and ran to help
him. The scope and volume of vtupera-
ton that smoked up through the spokes
or that wheel are sand to be unrepeatable
by persons less gifted IN the language
than the victim. He was rescued from
the machine, and, crawling to his feet,
said with stifled fury, "Wait a minute"
Taking his knife from his pocket, the
amateur wheeelman opened 1t and with
fierce determination cut the superfluous
length from the linen coat until it took on
the semblance OF butchers short frock,
and then remountlng his machine with
the assistance OF his trainer, ne said !:
"Now I'll buy a Norfolk jacket, as L
should have done before" Which he did.
But he has nevor entirely conquered the
