TRAINING DOMESTIC SERVANTS.
Progress of the Work Undertaken by
Some Prominent American Ladies.

From the New York Mail and Express
The talk Of college Of domestic economy to
turn out trained and certifcated servants and
house keepers is revived. This time rumor,
perhaps on no authority whatever, places the
projected institution under the Joint patronage
Of Mrs. Whitney and Mrs. Cleveland. As dis
cussed a couple of years ago, Mrs. Whitney was
said to be interested actively. and Miss Juliet
Corson was spoken of as fitting head for the
school. The plan, However, ended in moon
shine, but the difficulties of housewives so in
crease and multiply that, undaunted, it hobs
up serenely once more. Dame Rumor is quite
definite this time, even entering into par
ticulars.
A house is to be taken In convenient loca-
ton and strenuous efforts are to be made to
elevate house keeping to the rank of profess
sion for women by providing well-considered
courses OF instruction and awarding diplomas
on graduation in the hope of inducing intelli-
gent American girls to prefer well-ordered
kitchens to the factory or to standing behind
the counter In addition to the cooking
classes and to practical work in every de-
partment Of household tasks there will be,
so talk has it, advanced course, includ-
ing lectures on the chemistry of cooking,
the relative values of food, house hygiene
and sanitation, including ventilation and
such knowledge of plumbing and draining
as is useful to the house keeper, and various
branches of domestic economy adopted to the
Intelligent management Of homes. Graduates,
it is expected, will be able to secure better
wages than the average in families able to APP
preciate and to pay for brains as wen az muscle,
and the tendency will be to elevate the standard
of house work and to narrow the field of the
green girl fresh from Castle Garden. Quite a
number Of prominent women beside Mrs
Cleveland, win. it is said, allow the use of their
names as patronesses, and it is hoped that at
least In the millennium household service may
stand on footing as satisfactory and digniied
as is now the plane which the trained nurse oc-
cupies.

DEATH BY THE GUILLOTINE.
The Awful Suspense Of q Criminal De-
scribed by the Prison Chaplain.

Paris Letter London telegraph.
The recent double execution Of Allorto and
SELLER at La Roquette has again given rise to a
considerable amount Of discussion as to the
moral effect Of the ''guillotine" on the criminal
classes. It Is quite possible that President
Carnot's severity in according few reprieves
has had deterrent effect on the cut throats
who had learned to expect so much from the
misplaced clemency OF NJ. Grevy. This would
seem to be borne out by the observations of the
Able Faure, chaplain of La Roquette prison,
who has just communicated report on his
ministrction to the government. The able be-
heves that no other punishment which may be
substituted for execution by the 'guillotine''
will have so fear-producing an effect as the
terrible instrument Of justice at the service of
the public headman.
In his report the able draws a realistic pic
ture of the suspense in which the doomed muir
derer lives from day to day, until he hears
either his summons to the scaffold or the news
OF a reprieve. Nearly all the murderers seek
consolation more or less in religion, according
to the degree Of education which they have
received, and none of them give up the hope Of
O reprieve until the last moment. The con-
demned criminals rarely or never sleep when
they know that their time is approaching, or il
they do it is only to doze off into horrible
dream, from which they jump up all livid with
fear and dread. Sleeping or waking the gull
lotine," the lunette, the headsman and his as
sistants are for ever present to their imagina-
lions. Out of eleven persons whom the able
attended during his six years of office only
three were really asleep when their summons
came.
On the whole, the French system of keeping
criminals in suspense for weeks or months is q
severe one; but neither the prison chaplain,
who considers it his duty always to buoy up the
doomed men with hope, nor the magistrates
and police officials who deal with the danger
Gus classes, are inclined to recommend its
alteration in any of its details.

THE ANTWERP HORROR.
Three Hundred Dead and q Thousan
Pers0ns Injured.

The dynamite explosion ut Antwerp. Of which
brief mention was made in yesterdays srAa,
proves to have been far more disastrous than
was at FIRST supposed, IL being now estimated
that ct least 800 were killed and 1000 persons
injured. The cartridge factory was situated
behind the docks, upon which millions Of
cartridges were being loaded. It was adjacen,
to the petroleum stores, and two large Russian
petroleum ware houses we're set on fire and al
last accounts were still burning. Other stores
are endangered Police, gendarmes and troops
are assisting in extinguishing the flames, while
priests and Sisters Of Charity are looking after
the injured The city ID enveloped in dense
smoke.
The explosion occurred in work shop where
old cartridges were being taken to pieces. Men
and women were actively at work breaking
them up and Is 000. 600 had been partly broken.
The fire was still raging and covered two acres.
The flames shot up to an immense height
Amid the roar Of the flames there was q con-
tinuous succession Of loud reports, supposed to
be from the ignition and explosion Of packets
Of cartridges. Beyond the Russian tanks and
Mobiles sheds there were numerous houses
burning.
The loss will be many million francs. II will
be impossible to extinguish the flames in less
than twenty-four hours Several vessels have
been burned. Owing to the intense heat the
hremen are unable to approach the flames
nearer thaa 100 yards. Eighty thousand bar
rels Of oil are burning.
The Establishment in which the explosion
occurred had been condemned by the COM
munai council, but the deputation permanente
had allowed work to continue. The victims
are mostly factory girls. Windows three miles
distant were shattered by the explosion.
The latest estimate is that there are 800 dead
and 1000 injured. The explosions continue.
At the American docks all the ships have been
saved, owing to the favorable direction of the
wind
The stained windows Of the cathedral are
smashed and it is feared that the steeple will
collapse. The whole vicinity is strewn with
debris. The dock sheds and hydraulic cranes
are greatly damaged.
The soldiers Of the garrison and large
number OF citizens are assisting the fremen.
Many are dropping from suffocation. The
scenes at the hospitals are heartrending.
King Leopold has sent telegram expressing
sympathy and asking for particulars. The peo-
pie are incensed at the deputation permanente
for allowing work to continue in the cartridge
factory.
