MANUAL TRAINING SCHOOL
Receives the Unanimous Support
of the Builders Exchange.

At the regular monthly meeting Of
the builders exchange held yesterday
afternoon the election of the following
officers was announced: President, j.
W. Makinson; first vice president, J.W.
L. Corning; second vice president, CA.
Fowble; third vice president, John NJ.
Carlson; treasurer, A. j. Hoban.
The arbitration committee for the en-
suing year consists of Messrs. Grant,
BaziIle, Ball, Cameron, Fifeld, Firth,
Ness, Dunnigan, Whitehead, Ulmer
and DeslaurierS; executive committee,
MeSsrs. Rheaume, Libbey and Draper.
The exchange naturally takes great
interest in the manual training school,
and adopted the following address unan-
imOusly:
To the Honorable Board of Educa-
ton, st. Paul: The builders exchange,
called together to consider the recon-
mendationS of your committee concern
ing the retrenchment of expenses and
the greater economy in the adminiStra-
ton of our public schools, commend
most heartily your devotion to the
public good, and the members
pledge themselves to sustain you
in your efforts to conduct
that branch of the public veal
. in an honest, businesslike manner.
Bnt we most respectfully and earnestly
appeal to you to encourage and main
tain that one feature of the public
school system which sostrongly appeals
to this organization; we refer to the
manual training school, whose mission
1t is to create a band of thoI ough
American mechanics.
Your attention is called to the fact
that this school is yetin its infancy, hav-
ing been established in its present 10
cation less than a year, and that it's
many advantages are as yet unknown
tothe great mass of our fellow citizens.
We are creditably informed the pres
ent attendance of eighty-five pupils will
be increased by the addition of forty or
fifty at the close of tee present half
year; and we believe that in the near
future the accommodations of the school
will be taxed to supply room for all who
will wish to attend, and that the
increased members will add but little
to the present expense.
1t is proper 10 remind you that SIM
liar schools have been established in
other cities throughout the country,
notably in Philadelphia, Boston, New
York, Cincinnati, Chicago, Minneapolis,
Kansas City and Des MOines, and that
they have everywhere been received
with greatest favor as soon as known,
and are regarded as a consistent and
logical part of the public school system.

Inherited
ScrofuIa

By which is meant that form of blood i'm
purity which is transmitted from one genera
ton to another, is one of the most obstinate
of diseases. The fact that it combines in its
ir9n-Ike clutches consumption and cancer
shows now tenacious and treacherous it is.
The marked success Hoods Sarsaparilla has
had in curing inherited scrofula is simply
wonderful, and warrants us in urging all suf-
erers from any disease caused by impure
blood to give this medicine a trial.

has forgotten with what eagerness were an
ticipated the days when books should be tenn
porarily laid aside. so that the long-wished-for
vacation might be enjoyed?
1t seems at first glance rather p~aradoxical
that these closing days and scenes of colleges
and schools should be characterized as com
movements" since they are apparently rather
the end of the tasks which have for so many
months and years been required of us. The
term, however, is eminently appropriate, for
the end of school is the beginning of real life.
No matter how assiduOus and industrious we
may have been with our books; no matter
how hard we may have studied; no matter
what success may have been achieved or
honors gained, the very best education
which can be obtained at the very
best institutions Of learning, with the
assistance of the most conscientious and ca
pable instructors, and with the most labor1ous
application is, after all. but the foundation OF
the structure of life. The world is all before
the college graduate; its lessons are to he
learned, its battles fought, and its victories
won. The training Of the mind and the theo-
retical information obtained at college are
only means to this end, and are but helps to
facilitate the accomplishment of the higher
ends and purposes of existence.
1t is with due appreciation Of these impor-
tant truths that the school and college grad
nate should receive his diploma. Those who
look forward 10 the time when lessons and
lectures will be over as q period Of permanent
ease and rest will speedily find themselves
sadly deceived. and falling to the rear as lag
CARDS in the busy march Of humanity. Only
those who leave textbooks behind with the
object of entering upon the work Of studying
harder than ever so as TO store their minds
with useful information, or those who deter
to utilize the training they received at
school TO enable them TO achieve success in
any state of life to which they may be called,
will realize the hopes and ambitions OF their
college days. They must still ply the oars with
unceasing industry and vigor if they wish to
keep from drifting down the stream oftime.
These reflections are specially worthy of
being INDUCED in at this commencement sea-
son. Disregard of them will make but pas
sive. negative men. who will go through life
unnoticed and unknown; while those who
heed and are governed by them will attain to
enviable positions among their fellows and
lead honored and useful lives.

The Rosemary Library.

Several more large and elegant donations of
books were made yesterday 70 the Rosemary
Public Library, the principal one being a gift
oftwo hundred volumes by Miss Ada b. Car
rington.
Miss ~Carrington's donation is one of the
handsomest yet received by the library.
Among them may be found the classics of all
tongues. books of references, the poets and
many Of the standard English and American
novels.
Day by day many volumes Of rare merit are
being sent to the library, and the Librarians
have all they can do to classify and arrange
them. 1t is not probable that the circulating
feature will 60 into effect before next fall.

WIEN the overwhelming character of the
evidence in the baccarat case is~.considered 1t
seems remarkable that the plaintiff should
have exposed himself to so much lnfamy in
the very face Of the whole civilized world.
The only plausible reason that can be offered
in explanation Of his conduct is that he was
actuated by a spirit of revenge. Ruined
irretrievably himself, he determined, as
far as he could, to cast a permanent
cloud Of discredit on the names Of
those who had accused him by dragging
them into court and compelling them to relate
the part which they had taken in the scene of
dishonor which has blasted his own reputa-
ton eternally. 1t was the spirit which led
the blind Samson to pull the temple about
the ears of the Philistines. only in this in
stance the destroyer had been shorn of his
character and not Of his strength and power
by those whom he was seeking to injure.

SMALLPOX PHILOSOPHY.

The very important question, What is the
use of flies? has probably been settled in most
minds. The general crowd of them are ac-
cepted as s%cayengers. purifiers of the air and
small trials of patience, mild illustrations of
the discipline Of life. A few specials seem TO
come, as winged from the lower regions, to
get into our ears or n~ostrils, or stick to our
foreheads or our hands. and engage us in
mortal strife to stop all business until they are
killed. These are tiends and arouse our ami.

TO be saints here. But, on the whole, we
must allow flies have their place and use.

CoALINC sTATION IN HAYTI.

The United States Government has fully
determined TO secure q coaling station on the
Island of Hayti. Nothing shows more clearly
the anxiety of the national authorities to
acquire a foothold on that island at an early
day. with this object in view, than the grow
ing disposition of the State Department TO
recall Minister Douglas, a step which would
be carefully avoided under ordinary circum-
stances because calculated to give ofense TO
the colored voters of the North.
The wisest course that the Government can
pursue would be 20 direct the ptesent minister
to return to this country and substitute in his
place a white man TO represent American
interests at Po~rtau-Prince. This would re-
move tho feeling Of antagonism towards this
country which prevails in Hayti on account
of the custom which we have long followed Of
sending a negro to that republic as the Amer
lean minister.
1t will require much diplomatic skill TO get
possession Of the mole st. Nicholas, and there
should be no prejudice to obstruct the course
of the negotiations in the very beginning, as
has been the case in the instance of Minister
Douglas. An opportunity will have to be
seized when the established government is in
extreme need ofpecuniary assistanceto enable
it toresist the spirit of revolution. There should
be a prudent and alert white minister on hand
to take immediate advantage Of any occasion
that might offer for making q successful
stroke. All that our Governmentreally wants
is a tenable claim to the mole st. Nicholas.
Having once acquired this claim we will hold
