EARLY TRAINlNo.
DIR. Robert COllyer Expresses an opinion
and Relates an Incident.

DIR. Robert Collyer Expresses an opinion
and Relates an Incident.
To deplore the lack of so-called
early advantages when they have not
been enjoyed, and to conclude that if a
person has distinguished himself, not
having received scholastic training, he
would have risen to much greater en-
inence had he been so trained, is a
common conclusion. However, wheth-
er or not this conclusion is correct is
question which the apostles of the
''new education" which includes in
dustrial training, would be likely to
answer in the negative. In speaking
of this to Rev. Robert Collyer, / asked
him if he did not think his splendidly
sustained strength, both mental and
physical, which, unde- the weight of
his sixty-three years, shows no sign OF
abatement, was not due to the fact
that his vitality had not been impaired
by the confinement and routine OF
school lifeP He said that he had
thought 1t was so and that as the years
went on he was better satisfied that
his life had been what it was in its
earlier as well as later days.
In this connection he told me OF
preaching in Detroit-very soon after
he left the forge, when he was "full
of force and burliness to his very
finger tips" Hesaid: 81 laid it down
to them with a great deal Of force,
and when / had done one of my hear
ers, who had lost both health and vi
tality in striving for college honors,
came up to me and said: Out upon
college, any way; if you had been
through college you could never have
moved us all as you did There must
be some plan evolved, !" continued DR..
Collyer, "by which the mind can be
stored without loss either Of force or
vigor / think we are working up to
that in the schools now. My training
was mostly industrial. with very little
educational. They are reviving that
now, but they will get it just right
after time. Pittsburgh Dispatch.

RIGHTS OF WITNESSES.
Something About shyater Lawyers and
Their Indecent Practices.

Something About shyster Lawyers and
Their Indecent Practices.
A lawyer who is proficient in the
art of badgering a witness seldom lacks
clients. He is considered smart"
and If by dint of insolent and exasper.
ating cross-questioning he can goad
man into such a state of excitement
that he contradicts himself, and invol-
UNFAIRLY commits perjury, the feat is
looked upon as a ''great legal tri-
umph." Occasionally, however, an
abusive counsel is confronted, out OF
court, by an enraged witness, and re-
ceives lesson in civility too Impress
i've to be readily forgotten.
Not long ago somewhat notorious
member of the bar in a Western city
was tremendously pounded by wit
ness in a divorce case, against whom,
in summing up for the defense, he had
insinuated nearly all the crimes emu
merated in the decalogue. The ibeled
citizen, who was person OF
irreproachable character, met the
professional traducer at the court
house door after the conclusion OF
the days proceedings and thrashed
him without stint or pity. The flag
ellant was arrested and held to bail
for the assault, and will doubtless be
punished by fine or Imprisonment. or
both; but he was content, he said, to
endure any penalty the law might in
dict for the enjoyment of so prime a
luxury.
We have never been able to see why
a lawyer should be permitted to ad-
dress a respectable member OF society
in the wituess-box, or to refer to him
after he has left it, in terms as oppro-
brious as If he were burglar or
pickpocket. It is, or should be, the
business of a court to protect from in
suit persons who are summoned before
it-often to their own great incon-
venience- to further the ends of JUS
tice; and If such protection is not ex-
tended. we hold it to be the natural
right of the outraged parties TO pro.
tect themselves. Let the privileges Of
che legal profession be respected; but
why should men who play the i.uffian
at the bar be exempted from the pun
ishment which we all delight to see
inflicted upon rufianism in the streetP

invention Of the Misroseops.


The invention OF the compound
microscope, consisting of two convex
lenses placed one above the other,
naturally soon followed the invention
of the telescope. The simple micro
scope was very early known, convex
lens of rock crystal having been found
in the ruins of Nineveh. The idea OF
the more perfect form OF this instru-
ment is said to have occurred to Hans
Zansz, or to his son Zacharias, spec.
taele-makers in HolIand. about 1890.
It is very probable, however that the
same idea was suggested, either acci-
dentally or by way Of experiment. to
others. Calico, for instance, the
great Italian astronomer, it is said.
had. before 1910, directed a tube fitted
with glasses to the observation Of
small, near objects. He stated. short
ly after this date, that he had been
able to observe through lens the
movements of minute animals, and
their organs of sense. In letter
written in 1914 he says that he has
with his microscope ''seen and OBJ

their bodies were covered with hairs.

VALUE OF DISCRETION.

Keeper OF 3 st. Louis Lodge.
Every country boy who comes into

fore he becomes able to discriminate.

obey orders in the same manner a

A few weeks ago I was appointed door.
keeper at an entertainment given by
lodge Of which / was a member My
instructions were to admit no person
without ticket. I carried them out
wisely, as long as every applicant had
ticket. But after awhile man came
along and started to walk in. With
out hesitating, stopped him, when
he showed me a badge, and said he
was policeman. He was dressed in
uniform, to which he called my atten-
ton, and started in again. But in the
discharge of duty l knew no police
man. The vital point was, he was
man and had no ticket. So I detained
him. / had got a good hold on his
left arm, and had every prospect OF
success, when he tapped my shin with
club he carried in his right
transferred my grasp to my own
shin, and he was about TO
take advantage of it and go
in. But my instructions came to
mind, and l grabbed him again. For
the next five minutes it was an open
question whether the door-keeper
would put him out or he would put
the door-keeper out. My lusty coun-
try strength stood me in good stead.

ranged his uniform he had counted on
for passport, when couple of his
colleagues came in and settled the
matter. They told me how they were
there to protect US and to preserve
peace, but, for my life, can't UNDER
stand how they enhanced peace very
much around those corners. They
told me to come to the station, but l
explained how l had been instructed
to stay at that door and let no man
pass without ticket But they in
sisted that ! obey orders, and again
told me they we're there to protect us
and preserve peace. We had another
argument with fists and clubs. and
went with them when l couldn't stay
at the door any longer The lodge
paid my fine of twenty-five dollars and
costs next day, for assaulting an on
Ger, and tho master workman told me
Imust use discretion. He said it was
the metropolitan way of doing things.
Henceforth a policeman can go through
any portal I'm guarding. or have any
thing I've got for tbe asking. If j

The World Full of Dust.


Mr.. John Aitken is a very ingenious
gentleman, but some of his discover
les have tendency to make one feel
creepy. He has invented an instru-
ment by means Of which he is able to
make number Of calculations of the
most uncomfortable kind. With the
aid of this apparatus he is able to
count exactly the particles of dust in a
sunbeam. In a cubic inch of space
near the ceiling of room he found
S8. 100000 atoms OF dust, and in the
same space of Bunsen flame 489,-
100000. Such discoveries make us
dread the air we breathe. Not long
ago Mr.. Aitken proved that in the at
mosphere of room when the gases
are lit in the evening there are az
many PARTICLES in each cubic inch a.
there are inhabitants in Great Britain
and that in three inches from the gases
of Bunsen flame the particles of dust
are as numerous as the number Of peo-
pie in the w.rld. It would require
more courage than is averagely pos.
sessed to state the quantity Of dust we
inhale with every breath. London

Boy OF Twelve Captures q Villain at

The little village or Gaines Land
ing, ChicOt County, Ark. was the
scene of the following event: A gem
tleman named Wilson Gabrielle, resid-
ing a short distance out of the village,
had occasion on certain morning to
drive to neighboring town, taking
with him his wife and leaving the
house in charge of his daughter Ella,
aged fifteen, and son Henry, a lad of
but twelve years.
Henry was absent two or three
hours in the woods during the morn
ing gathering fuel. and on his APP

stout and coarsely-dressed colored man
jump from the kitchen-window and
start on full run for a piece of woods
several hundred yards to the east
of the house. Suspicious Of some
evil the lad dropped his wood
and made for the house where he
found his sister bound hand and foot
and gagged. Realizing the infamous
outrage to which she had been SUBJ
jected he sped to some neighbors and
relating all he knew about it besought
them to attend to his sister. and then
rushed back to the house. secured a re-
volver and dashed boldly after the
villain.
Some men who had heard his story
armed themselves and proceed in the
direction taken by the colored man,
but Henry had got fair start and went
on as fast as possible The men soon
lost sight OF him. and after searching
the woods several hours in vain re-
turned to the house and anxiously
awaited the return Of the boy. It was
not until sundown that the little hero
came in sight He had captured the
rascal and was driving him toward the

''crawls." where the remaining sub
stance is soaked and squeezed out.
The spongers thus work on, day
after day, under a tropical sun thai
burns and browns the skin until one
can not tell white man from negro.
It'll desperately hard life, more severe
than any other that one can think of,
and it requires men Of no ordinary
constitution to stand up to it The
spongers are therefore naturally an
exceedingly muscular set
The principal season for this fishery
is the summer. from May to August,
but the best conditions Of the water
are in winter, and a great deal Of the
fishing is then carried on with success.
During the hurricane months of Au.
gust, September and March the vessels
are nearly all laid up, The state Of
the weather greatly affects the result
Of the fishery. When the water Is
made rough and rolly by long-con.
tinued strong winds sponge-catchina
becomes impracticable. In some years
the fishery has become a complete
failure, while in others it has been
very profitable, always owing to the
weather. As the natural beds ol
sponges have become scarcer prices
have advanced, so that even if YES.
sci does not secure as large quantity
in given time as formerly the finan-
cial result is about the same.
There are several varieties oi
sponges caught in the Florida waters.
There are first, sleeps wool, which
sell for 81 to $5 a pound; second, yel-
low sponges, which sell for 20 to 6C
cents per pound, and third, grass
sponges, which are coarse In texture
and not durable, and sell for 10 and u
cents per pound. When these are
marketed they arc trimmed and
cleaned Of sand and shells. and ther
pressed into small bales Of 100 to 12C
pounds each, in which form they go ia
the wholesale dealers. Some attempts
have been made during the past three
years to cultivate the more valuable
kinds of sponges, and in some In
stances the experiment has met with
success. 1t seems probable that the
future supply of the sheep's-wool
variety will depend upon some such
action as this. Besides being scarcer
along the sponge reef, This variety
grows slower than the coarser kinds,
and the demand for it is always
greater than the supply.-Cor. N. Y.
