fact, namely: that rapid transit for freight
as well as passengers is supplanting water
transit, and by simple bridge, compell-
ing that rapid transit to seek the road
stead of the Narrows, to the great dctri-
ment Of New Jersey and possibly to the
checking the prosperity Of the proud city
of New York itself.
1t is very narrow craftsmanship IL New
Jersey does not see all this. Old Franklin
said wonderfully true thing when he
said that New Jersey was barrel tapped
at both ends-tributary to Philadelphia
at the one, tributary to New York at the
other. But time hath its revenges. The
rail has made both tributary to New Jer-
sey, because New Jersey has the sea-
board. Build this bridge, and we are set
back again.
Why the commercial men of New York
do not see 10, to me, the greatest puzzle
of all. Are their eyes closed? Do they
not see, that as 1t was water transporta-
ton making their city the sea. board de.
pot, that has given 1t its enormous growth
and prosperity; so, when water transpor-
tation diminishes In importance, they
mnst have its substitute, rapid rail transit,
debouch there, or In just the proportion
that 1t does not, will their growth and
greatness diminish. But accustomed long
to think little of New Jersey, the very
fact that she opposes scheme as contra
ry to Der interests, leads them to favor it,
utterly needless that its contriver himself
declares that through 1t he expects to
reyolutionize the existing course ofthings,
and to build a great commercial city ten
miles nearer the ocean than Manhattan

Attached 10 Washington university is a
branch particularly worthy of note 1t is a
manual training school 1t is not called a
manual labor sccIol, You will observe. Its
plan is To give hardness by practice in the
Use of tools carpentry, wood turning. pattern
making iron clipping and filing, forge work,
lira2ing and soldering and the Use OF machine
shop tools. The training stops just short of
giving a lad trade
The principal of the school is c. NJ. Wood
ward a graduate of Harvard university and
a Doctor Of physics. He has staff of eleven
assistants. The institution will accommodate
~ pupils, and it is almost full at present.
There are shops for each Of the different
trades, where their rlidiments are taught in
the most skilled and scientific way There
are two wood working shops, which are very
popular. Each pupil has Il drawer of tools to
himself, which he is required to keep in order
himself The carpenter and wood working
shops otherwise contain foriy-eight speed
lathes, forty eight carpenters benches, vises,
ctr There are IA individual Bets of wood

The course of study occupies three years,
and the hours of work are equally divided
between study and manual labor Tuition
the first year costs $40, the second year $50
and the third 500 To enter boy must not
he under n years of age, and he must be
moderately well up in the ordinary English
branches Besides the manual instruction
the boy is taught in mathematics, drawing,
common branches, and French and Latin
He has three Of these lessons day, studying
them at home Then he comes to the school
and practices mechanical drawing an hour
every day After that he has two hours
shop work.
The advantages of this course of instruc-
ton are very many. The pupils learn first
OF all to mix brains with their work. When
they 90 into trades afterwards, the difference
between the ordinary, stupid, dirty ire
chanic's prentice and one of these intelligent,
handy, clean, gentlemanly lads is as that
between night and day.
The boys are not allowed to choose their
own trades, but each must take the course.
The first year class learns woodwork, the sec
ond forging, the third and last takes in the
machine shop. MORTIMER WARREN
