NASSAR GIRLS.

\ correspondent in the Evening Wis
consiu has the following 10 say Of
them:
1T is said that the graduates of Vas
sar have always Il certain advantage
over those of other colleges for women
in the securing of active bread Will
ming positions. If this be the case the
inference is that the scheme OF educa-
ton tends more toward the ''all-found"
pattern than toward chat of more
specialized scholarship. y great deal
of the students time at NaSsar seems
to be taken up by semi-social occupa-
tons, little plays, concerts, debating
societies, that the apparently encour-
aged with the purpose OF giving the
student a certain social ease of lifting
her to take hold of the social side of
existence later on with a practical and
efficient grasp of entering readily into
relations with her fellow-beingS and
with life generally. rhiS is a grand
purpose and as things go, most girls
would be 50 much benefited by Il syS-
tenn of education that tended to its
fulfillment that they all forego perhaps
the finer, rarer and more scholarly in
telectual equipment that much be
sacrificed in the process OF its attain
ment.
That NasSar does make active, in
dependent, self-Sutticing young women
who can become bread-winnerS easily
accounts for the large number of stu
dents, probably, that so to it from the
smaller towns of the west and south.
The desire to widen their horizon, to
gain the higher advantages now within
the reach of women is very strong
pathetically strong, often-in girls born
in quieter and smaller places. 1t is, on
the other hand, rather surprising to
see that among the names of the grad
yates of this year but two hail from
New York city. Considering the prOX
unity Of NasSar to New York this is
singular, though explained in a meas
ure by the extension which Barnard
college has by any excellence, and this
might also account for its not being
especially sought by New York parents
who have daughters to whom they
wish to give n collegiate education"

BUM WILL NOT PRESIDE.
JUDGE GROSSCUP TO HEAR THE
FAMOUS DEBS CASE.
Government DESTROYS of Having Some
one quite Familiar With the
Case Try It,

Washington, April 21-lt is related
here that the continuance of the Deht
case has no significance. The attor-
ucy general wired the district attor-
ncy at Chicago to continue the case
until the July term of court. 1t is
expected that by that time Judge
GroSscup, who is i'll, will have suf-
ticiently recovered to hear the case.
Grosscup heard petitions in the case
and granted the injunction. He is
perfectly familiar with all the ques-
lions involved and for this reason it
is preferred TO continue the suits I'M
til they can be heard before him.
1t was announced recently that
Judge Romance Bum. of the federal
court of the western district, would
try the case. but the attorney general
has evidently changed his mind in
the matter.

BY ELECTRIC POWER.
Locomotive of a New Type Completed
ut the Baldwin Works.

Philadelphia, April 2S.-An electric
locomotive of new type has been
completed ut the Baldwin works for
the North American company, which
operates the property of the Oregon
Transcontinental company and an cN-
trnSive street railway and electric
lighting interest in milwaukee,. This
locomotive is intended for special eN-
detrimental work in handling heavy
freight and for switching purposes.
1t resembles somewhat the ordinary
cons lidation type used for pulling
freight in yard work. There are four
pairs of drivers coupled together by
connecting rods. The drivers are fifty
six inches in diameter, the end ones
only being Hanged. The motors, four
in number and alternating i'll position,
are of the continental irOn-Clad
type. The motors are made for 500
volts at 225 revolutions, which equals
SiXty-fvr miles an hour when in mo-
ton. Each motor will give about
21O-horSc power, and there will he Il
constant drawbar pull of over 10000
pounds.

 Cracker" was in reminiscent mood. We were travelling along the desert road to Cullen's We'll and had just taken 6 liberal pull apiece from a bottle of extra nice "Old Pepper" of amply ancient vintage.

''I'd been on pretty tough old toot down at Phoenix, and the quart bottle of snake pizen that I'd brought along hadn't lasted me past Buckeye.

ours, we do consider him white
winged angel compared to the great
reformer.

The Fairmont Sentinel came out
last week with one of the finest souv-
enir editions ever published in these
parts. Fairmont has a good many
enterprising citizens that are fast
making it one of the best towns in
the state. They realize that booms
do not spring up spontaneous y-like
Topsy, mot born, but growed." If
we enjoy boom we must join hands
and intellect and proceed to business.
One Individual enterprise will not
create sensation, but united effort
backed by money--the root of all
evil-must be coupled together.
These will convey us rapidly over
the decline. Our natural advantages
must be extolled-put plainly and
truthfully before the reading public
of the entire country. Such labor
will not be lost, and money expended
in this way will return with COM
pound interest. The boom must be
worked, collectively speaking. We
congratulate the Sentinel on it's hav-
ing reached its majority, and wish it
success in the future.

REAL ESTATE MOVING.

One of the first commodities to feel
the effects of collapse, and one of
the last to recover. is real estate. Not
until good times have become firmly
established, saving recommended and
money withdrawn from it's hiding
places for investment, does the de-
mand for real property begin to be
active. If, therefore, it appears that
real estate is beginning to move with
some freedom, this may be taken as
one of the last and most conclusive
evidences that times are on the mend.
We present in our local columns
each week many items recording real
estate transfers. There is nothin e
that indicates a boom, fortunately,
nor is there likely to be. But the
spell that bound the market to mac
ton has been broken. It is not i'm
possible to dispose of good property.
And this is only the beginning of an
improvement that will grow more and
more decided each week that passes.
Inquiry among the dealers reveals
an increase in sales of real estate, and
of inquiries by prospective buyers,
that is most encouraging. And per-
haps the best feature is that sales are
principally to strangers people look
ing for homes. A healthy, but gen.
eral, recovery and an increased and
reader market for real estate at mod
crate prices are as we'll assured as
anything in the future can be.
