Des Moines, April 25.-Gen. J. B. Weaver
to-day made pnblic q prope sition for the es-
Enlistment Of an independent school Of po-
Mtical science In Des Moines. He said such
a school is necessary because every patri-
otto citizen ':realizes that the adversaries OF
human liberty, those who would rob and
enslave the world, have the control Of the
mass Of the people. They control the col
leges and universities OF the country. The
proposed school is to have seven professor
ships, corresponding to the following sub
jee3s: Land and public utilities and inven.
tons; ~fnance; Interpretations; constitutional
Christianity; public debates. Gen. Weaver
offers to act as director Of the school with
ont salary until d successor can be found =

New York, April 25.-Conrad F. Jor-
dan, the new assistant treasurer of the
United States. took full charge of the
subtreasury this morning. Shortly after
ex-Secretary Fairchild appeared and was
followed by other prominent bankers,
including representatives of August Bel

Speyer & Co. A conference followed,
lasting till nearly 8 o'clock. All those
present, as they left the subtreasury,
declined to say what they had done or
what the conference was about. They
referred all inquirers to Mr.. Jordan, say
ing that none of those present could tell
what took place. The object of the
secresy they did not disclose.

mated.
There is no subject that SO deeply In
terests the thinking people OF
try al that Of rational education Tor
our girls, and there is none that is
productive Of so little real advantage
to the girls from the many discussions
that the subject occasions. Plans a"e
col sidercd and laid aside, and theories
rise only to fall again, and meanwhile
the girl speeds IN toward Womanhood,
misdirecting her energies and wasting
her time through lack OF well-defined
plans for her best advantage on the
part Of her guardians and educators.
VIZ cannot overdo the matter OF dis
creetly rearing u girls. They are to
he the wives and mothers OF u next
generation. and ON them rests the pros
nerity of the nation. The world Is to
be largely influenced by their abilities
and strength, and it rests with the edu-
Gators of to-day to prepare them for
the gre; t work that is before them. The
keynote for harmony In mental n
physical education has not yet been
touched and will not be until their
physical wellbeing is made supreme,
and the mental is based on this power.
The time has never been in U country
when this has been practically consid-
cred. Regardless of physical resources
mental expansion has ever been and
still is the aim, and has grown to such
q craze in America that brain power is
often forced to the exhaustion Of all
other capabilities.
When our girls thus forced graduate
they are, even If they escape invalid
ism, utterly without stamina, and are
poorly prepared for entering cheerfully
upon the arduous duties that await
them in everyday life, and are also un-
fortified for rising above the disap-
continents and anxieties that enter to
a greater or less extent into every
home.
Their career closes at their gradaa-

No. POstponement.

Chicago, April 25.-To-day marked the
beginning of the last week before the
opening of the worlds fair, and, notwltn-
standing the serious delays occasloned py
the bad weather of last week, the man.
ayers are promising to have things IN
%presentable shape by next Monday.
Under no circumstance will the opening
be ~postponed. 1t was said this afternoon
that with sunshine, a little higher tenn
perature and an army of $4,000 or 15,OOO
men, wonders may be accomplished I'D
a week. What now seems to be a hope
less chaos of mud and building debris
can be transferred into a beautiful!
garden. The roadways can be leaned
up and made passable, the waste acres
turned into green lawns and every UNI
slightly vestige of two years OF toll re-
moved. All this and more will be accom-
plished provided the weather holds sood.
AS to the interior work OF the falr, the
will now pretend to say that the great
show will be entirely completed by n
LIST of May. Installation of the exhibits
may go on day and night and yet much
will remain to be lone a week hence.
1t is a physical impossibility to get every
thing in readiness In the short time re-
naming. For this the exhibitors them
selves are chiefly to blame. They have in
may instances delayed their part of the
work until the very last moment, and So
find themselves behind the procession.
They cannot plead ignorance as an ex-
cuse, as the director general and his as
sistants have been urging them to hurry
for the last two or three months. Never
theless the fair will open next Monday,
while probably beyond all doubt it will
not be complete in all it's details, it will
be a great exhibition, with more objects
of interest installed in the buildings and
grounds, it is said on good authority,
than can he seen in a month Of sight

UNEASY OVER HAWAII.
Cleveland Hs. Misgivings.

~-G, @-.a
washington, Aprli z5.-Hawan IS rne
nightmare Of the administration. There
is ill concealed in :1sicial
circles oYer the news which the next
steamer may bring. 1t may be that the
president and secretary of state are still
satisfied, but everybody else connected
with the administration would feel hap
pier if the stars and stripes were still
flying. There also are very decided mis-
givings as to Mr.. Blount's capacity, for
so important a mission. The powers OF
q special commissioner or agent of the
state department are much broader than
is generally supposed. They were exer-
cised by agents of President Lincoln
during the war; they were exercised on
delicate missions before that time, and
since. But the almost unbroken prece-
dent has been that these special agents
were not clothed with executive author
ity, which would make them superior to
diplomatic officers nominated by the pres
ident and confirmed by the senate. 1t
smacks Of executive usurpation for the
president to go outside the constitution
and send a special commissioner with
powers superior to those of a diplomatic
officer of the government, regularly noml-
mated and confirmed by the senate. The
presidents letter, in which he described
Mr.. Blount as my special commission
err and declared his authority para
mount, is proving q good deal OF q
boomerang. An ambassador has to be
confirmed by the senate, and Blount Is
not an ambassador, but merely MY spec
ial commissioner" Under these circum-
stances it is not known where the presl-
dent and the secretary of state hnd the
ground on which they will stand in Justi-
flying the clothing Of Special Commission
er Blount with powers paramount TO
Minister Stevens. The minister was IN
reality superseded in all his functions.
He is coming home next month, but ne
might lust as well have left the day
Special ( Commissioner Blount arrived.
Under the construction of the president
it will not be necessary to name the sue
cessor to Minister Stevens SO long az
Blount is on the islands, because the
special commissioner is given powers
paramount to the minister. -,
Commissioners Carter, representing the
nawwaii..n provisional government III
this country for the past two MONTHS
called upon Secretary Gresham TO-DAY
and notified him that he had received
the permission of his government to re-
turn, and that in pursuance OF that per
mission he would start for San Fran
cisco tomorrow and sail on the Beigic
May 4. Subsequently MI. Carter said
that he had a very pleasant interview
with Secretary Gresham, but that it had
no political Significance. The situation
in Hawaii was quiet, and Mr.. Carter
said that he assumed that the secretary
was awaiting definite adviccs from Com
missioner Blonnt before any further steps
should be taken.

Some badly charred and partially incin-

Sandberg, an employee of the Boston &
Montana smelter here, were taken out
of the big inclining flue connecting with
the 3O0-foot smokestack at the copper
works last night. The fires in the smelt-
er were extinguished yesterday in order
to search for the remains of the ill fated
furnaceman, who disappeared very mys-
teriously April 3. When last seen he
went into one of the rotary roasters from
which the fire had been drawn. intending
to remove the Stag from it's sides. From
evidence adduced at the coroner's inquest
held to-day it seems that he was slight
" intoxicated when he went into the fur
mace. The supposition is that he fell
asleep, and on awakening was SO be-
wildered that instead of leaving the FUR
mace by the way he entered he raWle
through the intake and fell into the tues.
There he must have been instantly as
phyxiated by the terrible heat and deadiy
gases coming from the other furnaces
A knife found zeal the bones was ldentl-
fed as belonging to Sandberg.
