TO MAKE FARMERS OF THEM.
Nca Torl's Poor 1soys TO Isc Trained by
the Cisiiaren's Aid Socis.ty

the Chtidren's Aid Society.
Mr.. Joseph N. Waite of this CITY mas
bo1ght for the Chiliren's Aid society /:
lso aero farm. The society purposes
here TO establish farm training school
for the older boys who co.ae under its
charge.
The question of what, 10 do with lads
OF frc:n IA to IS years old has long trou-
bled the society. Many farmers are un-
willing to take city boys OF that age who
have been picked NJ, from :hc slur,s and
have never had any training. They can
do something in the way of correction
tor the younger boys. bat very little
when they ere more than IL.
1t was decided that a farm on which
the boys conld receive some training in
agriculture as veil as religious instruc-
tion would solve Tic difficulty. Those
boys who proved themselves willing to
work and behave themselves could be
sent to farmers homes, while those who
showed no disposition to get along could
be retu-cd to the city.
y committee OF the board cf trustees
advertised for u suitable farm and soon
hi'a about 10 under consideration. O.c
OF taese. t..o miles north OF kensico on
the Harlem railroad, seemed the best,
bat 1t was beyond the reach of the soci-
ETY.. which h;:l o2ly abort $4,000 to
spcnd-haif the surl required.
Hrs. White heard of .hc committees
troubles about three months ago. She
offered 20 by the f.irIn outright for the
society on condition that it would a,-
proriiatc lie sl0.GG0 it had intended to
eSpcnd 10 IN endowment frnd.
She made one other cordition-tbat
the boyso the farm shoald receive daily
re!isiC$ls instruction. The society of
course agreed. Mrs. White also added
l!1.co3 mere - TIE endowment fund.
Ihe decd fer The farm is noy: in the So
c.e;y's ha:is.
The boys VIII he kept rn;ler firm dis
c!pii:e. Ii 8 not expected to keep them
on the farm more than few months
each. Ii is thought in that time it can
be determined whether they axe worthy
to 60 into private homes.
One or two Practical farmers Will be
on hand to direct tho efforts os the boys.
The produce raised will bc sc!d in the
ne;gh5orin- Villages or seat to this city
FOX salc. II Is hoped in this way to keep
the expenses Of the farm Il, a minimum.
The society expects TO have from $50
TO 200 boys there wAea everything gets
into running order.

Kings Daughters in Turkey.

Smyrna, Turkey, has an active circle
Of Kings Daughters engaged in the prac-
teal charitable work for which this or
der is noted. By sewing, embroidering,
scrubbing floors, blackening shoes, or
any work for which money would be
paid, they have distributed rice and coal
among the poor, visited the sick, edu-
Gated children, provided medicines, paid
rents and done other similar acts of
charity. On holidays they divide into
committees for the purpose of decorating
the rooms where poor families live and
providing small remembrances for the
children.-New York Sun.

1t is difficult to tell what this aud the
next Congress will do with the pension
question. The estimate of Pension Com
missioner Raum called originally for
e165 Zoo, 900 for the next fiscal year. He
has since increased the figures to S172,-
600 600 exclusive of $4,000, 900 additional
for which claims are likely to beallowed.
If the Appropriations Committee of the
present House reduces these estimates it
will be because they have adapted meas
ures for stopping the further allowance
of claims and for Overhauling seine of
those already granted. The committee
is considering proposition tc suspend
any further allowance under the general
pension act of 1890 and to inaugurate an
investigation of the cases already al
lowed underit. Another proposition is
to suspend payment in cases where no
wounds are claimed unless the pensiouer
makes oath that he is dependent upon
the pension for support. All this, Of
course, means possible suffering and
hardship for many old soldiers.

Schooling at Twenty Dollars . Year.
However moderate the expenses of q
student of the present time may be they
can hardly reach the extremely modest
sum which sufficed for Jean Marmontel,
q French poet, during the reign of Louis
XIV, for years schooling. In his
memoirs" he speaks of his school life
as follows:
I was lodged, as was the custom of
the school, with five other scholars at
the house Of an honest mechanic.
Ny provisions for week consisted
of a large loaf of rye bread, a little
cheese, piece of bacon and two or three
lounds of beef. My mother had added
to them a dozen apples.
This was the weekly provision of the
best fed scholar of the school. The mis-
tress of the house cooked for us, and for
her trouble, her fire, her lamp, her beds,
her houseroom, including even the vege-
tables of her little garden which she used
for our soup, each of US gave her twelve
pence halfpenny month.
Reckoning everything except my
clothes, I cost my father between four
and five pounds a year. This was much
to him and an expense of which was
very anxious to see him relieved.
