Industrial pursuits were not introduced IN
I'll 1879. Hon. w. =. Kerr, Of Granville O..
Superintendent at that time, realizing that the
boys and girls were being sent into the world
without any knowledge Of the habits of indus
try, solicited the Board of Trustees to ask APP
preparation TO establish at the Home all trades
and occupations known TO the laboring world
Tie appropriation was granted, and By degrees
the industrial branches have been added until
to-day all trades are taught and boys and girls
are as well equipped 20 earn their own livli-
hood as If they had been apprenticed in the
shops Of the city.
One-hslf the day is spent in school, the re-
mainder in the shops. At present there are
24S children in the industrial school The
boys are variously employed at printing. tailor
Ing, shoeuiaking, carpentering, painting
plumbing, Thinning, baking, engineering, butch
ering, farming, floral aud landscape gardening,
while the girls are equally trained in stenogra-
ply aud typewriting, drawing, needlework, AID
cooking.
The Home edits weekly paper, every line
OF which Is set up" by the BOYS. 1t is a
purely Home journal. 70 which each child may
have access as contributor thereby awakening
journalistic and literary atmosphere in the
community and interesting personally the
Homes increasing alumni.
Never before, probably, has the institution
enjoyed greater prosperity, and health and con-
tentmeDt are reflected in the chldren's bright
faces. There is on every side a conspicuous
absence of that indefnable something which
rarely permits the visitor to a State institution

They also sustain several academies and prepar-
atory schools in different parts Of the country.
At Battle Creek. Mich, they have the largest
medical and surgical sanitarium in this coun
try. Two others are located respectively at st.
Helena, Cal, and Mt. Vernon, o. They pub
lish several health journals. The Good Health,
published at Battle Creek, Mich, has long been
one of the foremost journals of its kind in the
world. Many new enterprises are projected,
among them Homo for Orphans and Aged
People.
All the publishing houses, colleges, santa
RUINS, etc, are incorporated according to the
laws of the States countries in which they
are located The stock is all donated, yet it is
controlled by the donors, and the increase is
used to extend the work Of the denomination.
They are temperance people not only in
regard to liquor, but tobacco tea and coffee are
not used by them. They are firm believers in
religious liberty. both for themselves and for
Others and are therefore opposed to any union
of church or religion with the State. To 'be
seech " men to be reconciled to God is the
method of their work, in which they have been
eminently successful.

The Crisis In Germany Passed,

An exciting scene was created in the Land
tag, Berlin, Oh March 20, when the new Pre-
mier of Prussia. Count Won Gutenberg. an
nounced that the primary educational bill had
been abandoned.
The statement had an electric effect Every
body had expected that the education bill
would be postponed indefinitely, but the decla-
ration that it had been abandoned was almost
universal surprise. The National Liberals
were delighted; the Ultramontanes could not
conceal their anger. They had not anticipated
such straight blow from the Government, and
storm OF misses greeted the Premier's an
nouncement. But political matters are quiet
for the present.

The Messiah Craze Breaks Out Again.

A dispatch from Guthrie, Okla says that the
Messiah craze has again made its appearance
among the Pawnee and Otoe Indians, but seems
in fair way to be brought to speedy end by
the arrest of W. w. White, Pawnee Indian,
and Buffalo Black, an Otoe, who were taken
in irons to Guthrie from their reservations on
Sunday, March, 81 They have been telling the
Indians that great Messiah would come and
bring with him all the Indians in the happy
hunting grounds; that under the leadership OF
the face OF the earth, and the original prairies,
buffalo and deer would reappear. The children
go to school decked in war paint and feathers.
There was some difficulty in making the arrests,
and it is possible that hostilities may follow.
The charge on which the Indians were arrested
was that of melting an instruction.

Howells and Whitelaw Reid, was purchased,
and additional land has since been donated, un-
til il now comprises over 600 acres. The first
buildings were erected in 1869. They have
since been relegated TO industrial and domestic
apartments added later to the Home, while 81
handsome brick cottages, each accommodating
so children; two comm odious school buildings,
G chapel with seating capacity of 1,500, hospi-
tails. some g. buildings in all, deck the beauti-
ful undulsting sweep Of land lying in the lap
of the rich valley.
The Home is veritable city, almost inde-
pendent Of its neighbors, since it owns its
water supply, manufactures gas, has slaugh-
tsr-house with all equipments for preserving
meats, making lard butter, ETC., while all the
clothing, shoes, etc, are made in the shops on
the grOund-made for the most part by the
children.
IN Summer the grounds, with their graveled
walks, fine old shade trees and luxuriant fow-
ers, is an inspiring picture. and, not unlike the
citadels Of men. the Home has its city of the
dead, as the little graves in the shadow Of the
chapel testify.
Matron presides over each of the cottages
which run TO the east and west of the Admin
istrstiOn building. They are connected by
rooted walks. About 1000 soldiers orphans
are enrolled at the Home at present. Any SOL
oier's child under 16 years Of age is eligible to
the Home. and from enc to five children Of the
same family may be received if it is satisfac-
torily proven that they are destitute and
worthy objects Of charity. The State like the
indulgent mother she is, provides them with
clothing ard every educational advantage, aud
when they have reached the stipulated age, if
they have satisfactorily finished the school
course, they are given diploma, together with
clothing and small sum of money.
Some 1000 children from the Home are now
scattered throughout the country. Many of
the graduates are employed at the Home, while
the majority are filling honorable and lucrative
positions elsewhere.

system, arc iH the charge of 90 competent

join them in all their sports and social gather
ings. Gov. Campbell has been particularly
fortunate in the appointment of the Board of
Trustees, which includes Gen. S. V. Rice, Gen.
Isaac r. Sherwood, Gen. J. S. Jones, Capt
Alfred f. Lee, and N. J. Hartley. If not non
partisan in letter it is In spirit, since being gen
tlemen and soldiers they have only the chill
drens best interests at heart.
An appropriation of $1,000 made in 1889 has
enabled the Board TO bring about many needed
reforms in drainage, water supply, and general
discipline, while the most important apartments
have been added and others proposed The
water supply had always been defective, and

TO this was attributed the deplorable diph-
liberia epidemic that threatened to break up
the institution last year. and left its postscript
in many graves in the churchyard.
At the suggestion of Capt. Alfred z. Lee, the
State Geologist, Prof. Orion, made geological
survey of the premises, and was rewarded by
the discovery of strata of water-bearing rock
Four wells were sunk into these subterranean
reservoirs and by means of the Wagner system
10000 gallons of water, pronounced by eminent
chemists absolutely pure, are now daily pumped
into a water-tower, from which it is distributed
throughout tho Home, thus securing without
further cost an inexhaustible supply.

Another Dictator.

Venezuela is in trouble through her politi-
clans. Presincnt Palacio seems to be about to
proclaim himself Dictator. According to the
Judges of the High Court of the Republic he
is illegally retaining office after the expiration
of his constitutional term. For this decision
he has caused the Judges to be imprisoned,
along with the Senators and Deputies who OPP
pose his continued occupancy of the Presiden-
tial chair
The revolutionists are under the leadership
of Gen. Crespo, and there is likely to be bit
ter contest for supremacy, with personal ambi-
tion as the only motive for the loss of life and
devastation which gill follow the first en-
counter under arms.

Ex-Goy. Gray's Slim Chance for the Presi-


Prominent Indiana Democrats have come out
fat footed lately in the newspapers and in
speeches, declaring that Grover Cleveland is
the ayowed choice Of the Indiana Democracy
for the Presidency, which has very much dis
Couraged ex-Gov. Gray and his followers. In
an interview had with Gov. Gray on Monday,
March %, he said he would soon have some
thing to say in regard to what had been done
by prominent party men and organs toward
securing tho Indiana delegation far Cleveland.
He would do this only after very carefully con-
sidering the matter in ali its bearings. A mem.
Der of the Democratic State Committee lately
said:
1.-THE whole question from the first has been
one of policy only with intelligent Democrats.
There has never been any real faith in the idea
that Gray could be nominated, except that
Gray himself was thoroughly convinced of it.
and his own confidence infused some confidence
into others.
1.-THE only question is, and has been for sew
eral weeks, whether, as matter of policy, it
was wise to disregard the will of the people in
order to main tain customary political courtesy
toward ex Gov Gray. | am in some doubt on
that subject, but it is very clear that the ex-
Governor could relieve the party of great
deal of embarrassment if he were able to SEQ

clans sec it,"
