ated at Wittenberg last week chosen their
professions YETI" was asked one of their
number yesterday.
They have. Carl Mower will enter his
fathers law office and fit himself for the
law: Garrett BilIOw has chosen medicine as
his profession, and, after spending a year
or two in teaching. will attend one of the
medical colleges; Chas. \. EhrenfeId has
chosen the legal profession, and will COM
mence his studies Immediately; Benz. F.
Taylor has also chosen the law, and will
commence studying soon; George Hance
has chosen mercantile career. and will
probably go into business immediately.
The law seems to be the tavOrite, as three
out of five of the graduates have chosen it."

The location OF the State Soldiers Home
in Springfield would be of the greatest ad-
vantage to this city. Maj. d. c. Putnam
said the other day in speaking of the home:
The buildings should consist of one large
central building, containing the reception
rooms, the superintendent and other Off
ces, with two->tory wings branching out
from this central building. to contain the
quarters of the soldiers. Old soldiers are
not able to climb many flights of stairs, and
no soldiers home should be higher than
two stories The above plan is the one
commonly followed in erecting buildings Of
this class The erection Of the home in
Springfield would be of direct advantage to
the city The expenditure of $50, 600 for
the building above. would give employ
ment to many men. Then the amount
spent yearly for the maintainenCe OF the
inmates of the home would be from $780,
900 to 5000. 900, most Of which sum would
be spent in this city. think that Spring
field has very tiattering prospects for OBJ
tanning the home. Aberfelda would make
a beautiful location. There are number
of springs on the grounds, and the place is
a sort of natural park"
Springfeld's central location alone should
give her the home.
The merchants of this city would reap a
harvest of trade from the frequent eXcur-
sions which would be run to Springfield
from all parts of the state. None of
Springfeld'S competitors for the home offer
so many advantages in point of the location
offered. central position of the city, etc.
