MANUAL TRAINING.

An Agricultural Papers View of the Great
Educational Problem of the Day.
1t is coming. Common sense in
education is having hearing, and we
are awaking to a realization of the fact
that an educational system which con-
sists in examining the mind with facts
which have no practical bearing upon
the real work of life, is humbug and
fraud. We give our sons six years
of hard training in the public schools,
and when they get through they can
not execute in proper form prom
issory note; they can not drive single
nail straight; they can not diagnose
the case of q common cold. And vet we
professedly educate them as prepara-
ton for life. Now it is pretty well
established fact that all men can not
live by the exclusive exercise of brain
power. A great majority, in fact have
to use their muscles. Why then, devote
all the education to the head? Why
cram the mind with facts, which simply
mean knowledge without power, and
allow the hands which must probably
feed the brain to 90 without proper
Development? Why compel our daugh-
ters to pore over ancient history and
graduate them without a knowledge of
the first principles of cooking?
Why assume that every boy and girl
that is sent to school is to be an orna-
ment rather than utility in life9
Why not educate with view to work
rather than to genteel laziness? There
is a prodigal and shameful waste of
time, money and energy in our present
educational methods. But there is
rafting among the dry bones. Man
ual training may be sneered at by
few educational dudes, but when the
hard, practical common sense of the
people is appealed to understandingly,
the response will be not slow in COM
ing. Follow up the precept that labor
is honorable, by making labor the cor
ner stone of our educational system.
The educator who is ashamed of the
word industrial, should be hooted and
booted out of the place he disgraces.-

FASHION NOTES.

The Latest Fancies in Dry Goods, Hosiery
and Other Toilet Accessories.
Shot woolens are in preparation for
early fall wear.
New chemisettes are made wider,
and so long as to form almost waist
coat.
Wide null neck scarfs with lace or
embroided ends are again worn with
summer toilets.
There is a new fashion of wearing
ribbons around the neck with ends fall
ing almost to the feet.
The proper place to wear diamond
button on summer toilet is on one
side of the lace collar.
White dresses of lace or net are much
more practical, because less crushable,
than those of null or nainsook
The most sought-for color in silk
and Isle thread hosiery is Suede, the
color of the pale tan Suede gloves.
A pretty and cheap white or cream
gown is made of crazy cloth trimmed
with cream Marquise or Egyptian lace
White dresses are worn in midsum-
mer in the house and the country by
ladies who are even in deep mourning.
Black bows give the mourning effect
Boucle goods are not necessarily
woody. Boucle means curled, buckled
or Topped, and cotton goods, fringes,
hair and wool textiles can each and
all be made boucle.
Women who know how to dress do
not wear jewelry with summer toilets,
one small diamond button frequently
giving the one touch of light to a dis
tinguished white toilet.
The new Marquise lace is very diff
ferent to the lace formerly known by
that name. Its reSedU or ground is
very shear and varied with many
stitches. The designs are borrowed
from old Malines.
Coarse cotton net is worn over silk as
novelty on the other side. The skirts
are made very full, wide, tucked and
undraped. falling in straight lines
over the silk skirt. A scarf of soft silk
tied in big bow in the back forms the
hip drapery.
Rusty black lace can be freshened by
washing it in borax water, and after it
is partly dry dip it in water in which
an old kid glove has been boiled, and
some indigo blue added. Then stretch
out the lace carefully and iron on the
wrong side, or press until dry under a
heavy weight.
False hair is worn but little or not at
all by Parisians who really belong to the
world of the best fashionable French
society, neither do Partisan grande
danes of the Faubourg st. German wear
high-heeled shoes, boots or slippers, nor
do they practice tight lacing, nor dis
figure themselves with enormous bustles
such as the parUenus, the "new people,
and the common English women wear.
English and French fashion writers,
as well as private correspondents, agree
in saying that black hosiery is mort
bund, for summer, at least, but those
who have black silk or Isle thread
stockings need not cast them aside,
and merchants who have large stock
will not find them drag on their
counters when the butterflies come
back to town, and it is said that even
some black socks for babies (poor little
things) are found among late importa-
tions.-N. Y Sun.

away back in 1876 I was out in
Colorado, p" remarked man from New
England. at was my first visit and
the scenes and incidents made an i'm
preston on me that time will not efface.
To begin with, I had the mountain
fever as soon as got anywhere near
the Rockies, and that little affair is cal
culated to make man remember it for
several days. struck La Junta, which
is pronounced as though it was spelled
with an h. This was the last station on
the branch of the Kansas Pacific that
ultimately ran into Pueblo. At that time
La Junta was busy settlement. A hun
dred or so wooden buildings lined each
side of the main street, including three
hotels, a dozen boarding houses, i'm
mense stores, where the freghters into
Old Mexico got their loads, and ten or
twelve dance halls and saloons and
gambling places. Every thing was
wide open. The only thing the settle
ment did not have was a graveyard.
This fact was commented on most
favorably by everybody who resided
there. 1T shows what healthy place
we've got, said any of them when APP
preached on the subject. and it also
shows what law. abiding fellers we are
for here we've lived for three or four
weeks and nobody has died with his
boots on This latter was polite way
of informing the stranger that no fatal
rows had occurred within that time.
Everybody was on the make and the
hotels all charged at the rate of four
dollars per day. The hotels, by the
way, were not more than two stories
high and were not fitted up with any
great style or elegance. AS soon as l
got we'll enough to travel went down
to Trinidad, and was there just two
weeks to a day, as got out just as soon
as possibly could. In returning East
took the Kansas Pacific east from
Pueblo. We passed La Junta-or at
least where it had been-and not a
single house remained. 1t was an un-
broken prairie, save where posts had
been left. 1t seemed that as soon as
the branch was finished to Pueblo La
Junta disappeared from sight, and all
in the period of two weeks. Isl PAIL

A Judge With Good Ears.

One of the shrewdest of her Majesty's
Judges is as remarkable for the quick
ness of his eyes and ears as for the
keenness of his intellect. The other
day a stranger in court, espying a
friend, addressed him in stage whis-
per with Hello, old fellow! haven't
seen you lately. Are you all right9"
The remark was hardly heard beyond
the nearest by-standers, and there was,
consequently, considerable bewilder-
ment among those engaged in the case
before the court when the Judge, look
ing up from his notes, observed: ''If
the old fellow is all right, he had bet
ter go outside and say so,"--London

TOUGH WORK..
Impressions of a Scribe Who Happened to
See n Farmer Shave.

| See a Farmer Shave.
To witness farmer shave is one of
the most painful operations ever wit
messed outside of downright butchery.
For some reason away beyond the
| depth of present knowledge, the man
who breads the country always has a
beard like a new hair brush and he
never could learn how to sharpen a
razor.
He gets on the back stoop with his
shaving utensils, and after rubbing the
razor over the strap in an awkward
fashion, until whatever trace of edge
it may have had has been DESTROYED.
he hangs up his broken glass and takes
a position alongside of the kitchen
door where the old lady will be sure to
jostle his arm when she goes out to
empty her dish-water.
With a brush that has but little
handle remaining he manages some
how to stir up lot of lather from soap
that would raise blister on the bottom
of boys foot in dog days, with which
he coats his face till nothing but his
eyes and the back of his head are visi-
ible. With cob dipped in warm water
he goes over the stubble with vigor
that makes the flesh creep, until he
feels that all the reasonable precau-
tons for comfort in the subsequent OPP
crations have been taken.
Taking up the razor and looking at
it suspiciously over the top of his
glasses, he runs his thumb along the
edge, fails to draw blood as he had
hoped, and then with sigh like leav-
ing town in a hurry, he grabs himself
by the nose, shuts his eyes and gives
scrape that makes his hair stand on end
as a bunch of beard seems to come out
by the roots.
But once at it a terrible desperation
seems to nerve him, and with teeth set
he goes right on with determination
to get the agony over as soon as pos
sible. Howls of woe break from him
now and then, as an expression that
poisons life steals over his face and
stays there till the last nerve has been
pulled out of socket by that terrible
razor, and the last bit of stubble has
been laid low, when with sigh of re-
lief, he strikes up hymn of thanks
giving, and joyfully throws his shaving
paper into the swill barrel near by

ON A BEAR HUNT.
How Grizzlies Seize Each Other When
Struck by Bullet.

struck by Bullet,
Several days ago Hendrick, the
hunter, was camped on Bear river, in
Colorado. With him was q young
tenderfootjustf from the East Trapping
was pretty good and the two men let
the meat supply Of the camp run down
until there was nothing left but Gin
trappers' phrase coined for city society
''sow abdomen. So one evening the
hunter and the tenderfoot started out
after fresh meat.
They soon found it, for scarcely q
mile from camp they ran on to whole
family of grizzlies, half dozen in all.
As the bear family showed Il decided
inclination for Il closer acquaintance,
the introduction at once took place. the
rifles of the hunters serving as masters
of ceremonies. Though the men fired
as fast as they could and bear after
bear was knocked down. the brutes
rose to their feet again, and the bruin
family still came on. The rifles kept
up their incessant crack, however, and
at a distance of twenty yards the old
she-bear, the leader OF the family, fell
to rise no more. Forty shots had now
been fired, and with only three cart
ridges left between them the hunters
were glad indeed to see the remainder
of the savage family party turn tail and
disappear among the surrounding rocks
and bushes.
On examination eight bullet holes
were found in the old shc-bear. five of
the eight having lodged in vital parts.
The next morning the hunters took the
bloody trails leading in various direc-
tons, and in an hours time all the re-
naming bears were found dead. making
six bears bagged in bunch.
During the fight the wounded brutes
INDUCED frequently in their singular
custom, called in hunter and trapper
parlance shaking up" Whenever a
bear was struck by q bullet it would at
once seize one of its companions and a
rough and tumble fight would ensue.
The old she-bear on several different
occasions grabbed her cubs and tossed
them high in the air, catching them as
they fell, and numerically ''chawing"
them. 1t was to this singular custom
that the hunters probably owed their
lives, as it delayed the progress of the
ferocious family until the deadly rifles
were able to check it entirely Chey-

ANOTHER SHOCKING CASE

Seuthington People Learn of a Re- volt1ng Crime-A Father Confronted
 in Court by Ills Daughter-Bound
 Over I'm s1 ,5OO sonds.
 shocking, revolting and unnatural crime stirred the people of Southington yesterday, the news of which came out at trial at the court room yesterday morning before Justice Campbell. Charles Kelsey was prosecutor The accused man was Walter Hubbard, the father of family, who arrested for drunkenness and for criminal intimacy with his fifteen year old daughter Hattie Eliza. The accused plead not guilty. He was then confronted by his daughter, who gave in de- tail evidence of a shocking character, charg ing her father with being repeatedly guilty of the charge against him and of his having secured her compliance by means of threats to send her away from home to the Indus trial school or through promises of reward. The first offense was about two years ago. She had not told her mother of the case, the latter being deaf and partially paraly Zed, but had told her aunt and her two married sisters, who said that their father had com pelled them to yield in the same way. She, however, was got away to Hartford, where she remained for the last three months, but returned last Sunday when her father at tempted to renew the criminal intimacy, ,she in- formed the authorities. Hubbard is forty three years old and was married in 1867 to Charlotte Warner, of Berlin, and lived in the latter place and New Britain previous to go- ing to Southington which was about two years ago. The accused made no defense and was bound over in $1, 800 bonds to ap- pear before the Superior court which meets in Hartford next month. The penalty is not less than two or more than five years in State prison.
