MINOR MATTERS.

Shippers and Producers to Be Asked to Give
Views the Interstate Commerce Law.
Special 10 the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-Chairman Cullom
of the Senate committee on interstate COM
merce, went to New York to attend the

there will be general investigation of the
subject, and railroad men,, shippers and

will be either repealed or modified. but
there may be additional legislation requir-
ing railroad corporations to carry out more
closely both the spirit and the letter of the
law, so that there may be lower rates for
the long haul and the maintenance of the
present short-haul tariff, if not reduction.

THE CROW AS A TRAVELLER.

A street taxidermist with a stuffed
crow attracted the attention Of several
hundred people on Clark street last
Thursday. THE crow,o he said, lis d
great traveller. He is a social sort ol
. bird, too. You don't often see q
lone crow. He generally has a mate,
but most generally he has several Of
them. Crows like to keep together
better than any Of the feathered tribe,
unless il is wild geese and partridges,
They always migrate together, but
unlike most migratory birds, they
don't go south-not always. They
quit the highlands and the woods ear
II in the season and haunt the river
edges, flying from shore to shore. At
night, when the weather is cold, they
fly to the nearest woods to roost. The
hawk and the owl, though 60 it alone
You hardly ever see q pair Of either
They fly low or else very high. The
hawk is a higher flyer than the owl
They are always looking for some
thing to destroy, and never migrate
in any direction long at a time. They
seem to be uncertain which way to 90.
Just like some folks III this world. =

EDUCATION, TRUE AND FALSE

The rapid increase OF knowledge in
this country and the general spread Of
intelligence in all classes is d Just
cause for pride in the Nation. Yet
| there is a certain danger which wise
men see IN this apparent thirst for
knowledge The mere boarding up
of facts does not educate q boy or a
girl. Only 50 far as the receiver Of
instruction digests the knowledge Civ
en- him, so that he makes it his own
and is wiser and, consequently, more
useful person, has he been educated
or led out (e duco) of himself and
selfshness. The person who acquires
knowledge in order that he may be
socially elevated in the world, because
it is popularly believed that ''give a
lad "a good education and he cannot
but come to ride in his carriage," has
made radical mistake. The miser
who boards up coin in the recess Of
his vaults is poorer than y literal beg
gar, because he has that in his nature
which prevents his ever spending his
goods save for the most meagre neces-
stiles. So the man that boards up
knowledge that he has no power to
use is more foolish than child that
has learned we'll and wisely a few
things. The mere acquisition Of
science and knowledge is of no more
value than the miser's hoard of gold.
The simple cultivation Of a child's
memory is foolish task. The train
ing Of the mind to meet the varied
problems Of life which must thrust
upon every person is the duty Of the
parent. The man who builds home
wisely and well is a better. educated
man in the true sense Of education
than the man who has learned six
languages and has no r"aer to use his
knowledge. Only when the knowl-
ledge acquired lifts the possessor into
the pure, high realm Of wisdom and
becomes practical does it reach the
dignity Of education.
There is no more shallow method
of Judging a man than by his memory.
A head "replete with thoughts Of
other men" may pass for wise for a
time, but the first practical test de-
monstrates his folly. AS only an in
finite universe, it follows that any at
tempt Of a finite mind to do this must
b shallow and trivial. As knowledge.
broadens it is demonstrated more clear
~ that it is not the law Of Heaven
that we should learn xall, but rateesr
become specialists Of certain branches,
in order to learn accurately what we
do learn. Education in its deepest.
sense, says Ruskin, lis not the equal
izer, but the discerner Of men" It
fits men into their proper places. He
is edueatedss who has learned to be
accurate, even in the simplest handi-
craft; to do well and wisely d task,
however lowly set before him. He is
an uneducated man who has learned
only enough to despise his work, and
believes that the mere acquisition Of
language and science, without the
poWerof using them, will or can give
him any distinction.-Ex.
