MICHIGAN'S NEW GOVERNOR.
His Message Largely Devoted to the Temper
ance Question

LANSING, MICH, Jan. S.-Governor
Luce was inaugurated at > o'clock this
afternoon. A considerable portion ofthe
governors annual address is devoted to
the temperance question. Upon this
subject, he says in part: Believing that
the sentiment of a large portion of the
state is ripe and ready for it, commend
to your consideration the passage of q
local option law if one can be devised
free from constitutional objections. If
our constitution prohibits us from Sc
curing an efficient law for localities 1t
does not prohibit a general prohibitory
law and if we are denied other oppor-
tunities no doubt in the future this
course will be resorted to.

MUSIC AND JEWELRY.

The Wonderful Mechanism Found in Geneva.
San Francisco Chronicle.
1t is very amusing to go into the shops
in Geneva, Switzerland, where music
boxes are sold. You are shown into a
room and invited to take chair; the
chair plays a pretty tune as you take your
seat. You hang your hat or umbrella
upon a rack, and the rack murmurs
n few strains of music. A decanter upon
the table pours out q glass of water TO q
stately march, and all the innocent look
ing furniture of the room could, do not
doubt, discourse excellent melodies. If
YOU desire more elaborate art the large
box contains a whole orchestra; and even
the little boxes on the table can play
many exquisite things. No need of buy
ing opera tickets any longer; you carry
home in your trunk harmony enough for
a lifetime.
The manufacture of jewelry and the
cutting of precious stones is one of The
oldest arts in Geneva. 1t is known to
have been practiced as early as the fifth
century, and III the thirteenth the Gen
evan jewellers were widely renowned; but
the art of matchmaking, i'll which this
city now leads the world, is much more
recent. The first watches and
clocks were made here in
1900; at the present day Geneva
manufactures annually 10 900 watches
alone. AS an American / am bound to
rank the Waltham watches more highly,
but the art seems TO have been carried
here very nearly to the point of perfec-
ton; and in the beauty OF their decora-
ton and enamelling the artists have Ger

The first report of superintendent W
H Holland of the colored deaf and dumb
asylum, the only colored superintendent
of such an institution in the Cnited
States, is just out. He says:
To His Excelency L. S. Ross, Governor of
Texas:
In obedience to request from the
board of trustees and your exeellency,
herewith submit my report of the history
of the institution for the deaf, dumb and
blind colored Youtteof Texas, from its
inception to date.

TIE TRUSTEES
The trustees report as follows:

The trustees report as follows:
''To His Excellency, L. S. Ross, Governor
owe beg leave to submit the following
report of the transactions of the institu-
ton for the deaf, dumb and blind colored
youth of Texas, accompanied by the re-
portof the superintendent:
Since our last report at the special SEES
sion of the Twentieth legislature (Which
report we herewith resubmit, that the
history of the institution may be embodied
in connected form, in official printed
records, for info1 nation and reference)
a commodious building has been erected,
the dimensions, general capacity and cost
of which you will find in the superintend-
emit report. His report is so full on all
matters of detail, we deem it unnecessary
to enlarge upon it further than to make
the following recommendations
An appropriation of S22 200 for another
building on the same general plan as the
present one.
An appropriation of $1,000 to purchase
dynamo and other apparatus for lighting
the building with electricity Such an
arrangement will enable us to do away
with the use of kerosene oil and other in
flammable substances which are con-
slant menace to institutions of this char
acter.
An appropriation of sufficient sum to
supply the institution with water. This
place is too distant from the city water
works for that constant supply of water
for fire protection and other purposes,
and we are satisfied that, even if we were
nearer the waterworks, it would be much
more economical and satisfactory in every
way to be independent of any outside
supply. The purchase of suitable ma
chinery for digging artesian wells, or
contract with some competent parties to
furnish such wells, can be made on suit
able terms. We see that the trustees of
the lunatic asylum have made similar
recommendation By adopting this rec
ommendation we believe the state can
save thousands of dollars and have an
equally effective system of water supply.
We earnestly recommend such appro-
priation as will be sufficient to put in
operation a system of Industrial training.
We think that $500 viii be ample to in
augurate it, and the line of Industrial
training proposed by the superintendent
can be managed so as to save the expense
of making clothes for the pupils. If sue
cessful, the experiment can be enlarged
from year to year. Respectfully,

more experienced and with a wider
knowledge of the methods of managing
such institutions.
My Acknowledgements are especially
to the board of managers of the instiru-
ton who have at all times, and frequent
" at sacrifice of valuable time, di-
rected, aided and encouraged me with
their valuable assistance. In the future
1 hope to demonstrate, the wisdom of the
patriotic action which has opened up such
benefaction to the colored people of
Texas.
With a due appreciation of the kindly
interest which your exeellency has at all
times manifested in the success of the
institution by your personal visits and
encouraging words, and with renewed
hope and increased confidence, with en-
ergy, industry and zeal for success in my
new responsibility, hope I may be able
to discharge with some satisfaction to you
and the great people you represent, the
duties of the sacred trust you have i'm
posed upon, me.
