In the original of this Illustration the

WAGEs IN JAPAN ANp oHINA.


Those who have been helping Eng
land, Canada, Cuba ana Brazil at the
expense of this country may want to
do as much for Japan and China If
they have a chance to, A tariff in ia
vor of Japan and China will be very
helpful to those countries If their in
dustries develop as they now seem like
ly TO. William q. Curtis, who was
connected with the State department
while Mr.. Blaine was at its head during
the administration of President Harri-
son, and who has recently been in
vestigating the industrial outlook in
China and Japan, presents figures which
are suggestive, in view of the possibili-
ties of the competition of the skilled
labor of Asia with that of Europe and
America Wages in Japan are higher
than they are in China, and in the for
mer country skilled artisan can earn
on an average, thirty cents a day.
Figures furnished by Mr., Curtis
show that Japanese tailors work
ing on foreign clothing, can earn
more money than any other class of
workmen. The best of them make as
much as 81 a day, the average being
| forty-nine cents. Carpenters earn from
twenty to fifty cents day, stonecut-
| tiers from twenty-five to sixty-nine,
bricklayers from twenty to eighty
eight, paper hangers from twenty tc
| sixty, printing pressmen from eleven
to seventy, compositors from ten tc
eighty-three, farm hands from sixteen
to thirty and tea-makers from fifteen
to eighty. Common laborers earn from
fourteen to thirty-three cents. The
wages received by employees in japanese
| factories are even lower than the aver
age, while in China human labor is as
cheap as it is in India.

THE HIGH SCROOL.

The discussion in the Board of Edu-
cation last evening made the fact that
the High School is not in good shape
even palmer than it has been. 1t was
decided not to reappoint a teacher in
the school, and the main reason given
why he should not be reappointed was
that he has been weak in discipline"
If he has been as weak in discipline as
the Board of Education has been in deal
ing with his case and the case of Prin-
cipa1 Thomas he has been pretty weak
There are those who think the unfortu-
nate teacher has been treated with
great injustice. BE this as it may, 1t is
quite certain that Justice has not vet
been done in the case of Principal
Thomas.

will eventually supplant it. If proof
were needed that the godet skirt is
highly popular, 1t would be plentiful
