ELECTRICAL POWER.
How Shnll Wo Educate Our Sons For the
Electrical Profession:

we come back now to the original
question, and the only answer that can
be given is. 'Give the boy the broadcast
education that his time and abilities
will permit" My own belief is that
there is no better early preparation for
professional career of any kind than
that given il the public schools of our
larger cities.
Having completed tho public school
course, would have him take tho usual
academic course involved in prepara-
ton for our larger colleges, giving more
attention to mathematics and less to
classics, but, if there be time, q great
deal of attention to both. The object of
this period of n young mans education
Is decidedly more the training of the
mind than instruction, and for that rea-
son 1t matters less what the boy learns
than the habits Of thought which are
inculcated at this time.
In the study Of quantitative chem
teal analysis the student is most easily
introduced into the methods of exact
science. In 1t he is familiariZed at tho
outset with instruments of precision,
with the nicetics of manipulation which
characterize all scientific work, and no
learns to handle the atom and tho mole
cule which are the ultimate PARTICLES of
matter as the mathematician does i'm.
aginary quantities and symbols To the
analytical chemist these atoms and
molecules are as living entities as the
trees and the hills, and they are en-
dowed with individual characteristics
more definite and more easily recognize
able than arc the members of his own
family. Tho study of chemistry in its
definite proportions is the easiest and
surest road to n rational understanding
of the physical qualities of matter up
on which the structural engineer de-
ponds for the success of his creations.
Above all should the candidate for
electrical engineering honors be in
structed in tho higher physics, for it is
the mechanism Of the ether with which
the electrician hns chiefly to deal, just
as it Is with the various gears that the
mechanician is concerned. Electric

Its Drawbacks.
Having engaged coupe in the train
to Shang-I Yuen, the only railway in
all China, l found on entoring the first
class vestlbule car that, like the rest of
tho train, it was horribly dirty.
asked for an explanation of the mat
ter, and for answer was conducted to
another part OF the train which appeared
little eleanor, but still the come was
very dirty and only had the advantage
OF having table, which the first one
had not, 1t having been brokon MP by
some former occupant.
After the train began to move q most
vile smell came from the adjoining COM
partment- On asking why such state
OF things was permitted was told that
Chinese mandarins were dirty people
and did not understand any better stand
ard of cleanliness
Two Young Cantonese are in the same
carriage with me. and I ask them why
tho railway is 80 badly managed and
the cars so dirty. They inform me that
they are related to one of the directors,
and that no doubt the dirt arose from
the number Of strangers who had travel
ed lately by the line, who do not under
stand western sanitary arrangements
Ill fact, never were in train before.

not provided with q light. l inquire

The summing up Of the crop condi-
week ending July 8, is as follows. The
amount Of rainfall was much below the
average for the state and occurred in
scattered showers. The absence of rain
with the high temperature and winds,
was u~nfavorable to standing small grain
in general, and injurious over the M
trail and southwestern part OF that por-
ton Of the state east of the Missouri
river, and in limited localities elsewhere,
as the grain is ia the head and much of
it in the ''milk.' Grain is reported as IN
good condition over the southeast, east,
northern and extreme western portions
Of the state, also in limited localities
elsewhere. Corn has done we'll almost
generally, and has made rapid growth.
1t is tassellng 10 the southern counties.
Potatoes have done we'll, especially
where rain occurred during the week or
previous showers had left the subsoil
amply moist. Millet averages IN good
condition. Flax is blooming and aver
ages fair. Grass was adversely affected
and prospects for a general hay crop re-
ported not as good as anticipated. Re-
ports from the central Black Hills coun-
try indicate that all crop prospects are
bright there.

stroke Eton's No. 2 caught o crab and
lay at the bottom Of the boat for a
moment unable to rise. The Oxford

when the Oxford coxswain, II. G. Sells,
cried: Ease ALL" The Oxford then
returned to the post amid frantic ap.
plause, in which the umpire and others
in his launch joined, while the Etons
ratified their oars in the rowlocks in
approval. Bravo Oxford" was heard
on all sides and the cry mo more Cor
nell was heard from several boats.
The race was then started again and
the Elton crew won as they liked by
eight lengths.
Two Crews Next Year.
The trustees of Cornell university
who are now here have decided to bring
two crews to Henley in 1896.
Secretary Cooper Of the regatta com
mittee heartily approves of the PROPOSE
ton and offers the Cornell men every
inducement and facility. He asserts
that this will be the best answer to the
criticisms passed upon the conduct Of
the Cornell crew now at Henley.

COMMENTS ON THE RACE.

What English Newspapers Think OF the
Henley Regatta
LONDON, July 12.-The Pail Mall
Gazette commenting on the Cornell
crew says: The Americans failed to
enter into the spirit Of the Henley re-
gatta which calls upon competitors as
we'll as visitors to dress clearly and
tidily> as is possible. The Varsity and
other English crews make q point of
rowing in new jerseys with colors un-
stained by rain or perspiration. 1t is
not too much to say that such q dirty
looking crew as Cornell never competed
in the regatta within the memory of
most Of its frequenters.
They wore a large red ''C' embroid.
cred on the front Of their jerseys, and
in every case the color of this letter
had run several inches. We hope they
will get q new turn out if they row in
the coming Metropolitan regatta.
The Globe remarks: 1t is much to
be regretted that the visit of the Cor
nell crew instead Of promoting good
fellowship between English and Amer.
lean athletes has struck only a Earring
note in the otherwise harmonious RI
valry of nations at Henley. We caa
not help thinking that the American
oarsmen have been somewhat harshly
judged for standing upon their rights.
At any rate it would have been more
gracious to abstain from hostile CON-
ments in view of the decision of the
committee.
The st. James Gazette, expresses the
opinion that there is q good deal of un-
reasonable prejudice against Cornell,
and if they had won the Grand Chal-
lenge there might have been unpleas-
antness. The best possible thing which
could occur was hat Cornell should be
fairly beaten by Trinity. After all, the
most important thing was that our
American cousins should have a fair
race with an English crew.

AN ARGENTINE SENSATION.
A Deadly Duel That Has Greatly Excited
the Southern Republic.

The mails from the Argentine Repub-

which has caused an unprecedented sen

DR.. Lucio dc Lopez, one of the lead
ing financiers and most influential men
in the republic. who was appointed by
the government to investigate the af-
fairs of the Provincial bank of Buenos
Ayres, made q report to the courts
which caused the arrest Of Colonel Sar-

court, where there was q mistrial, two
judges voting to confirm and two to re-
verse the decree of the lower court. He
then published a bitter personal attack
upon DR.. Lopez in La Prensa, n Of the
leading newspapers.
Acting under the advice of foolish
friends, DR.. Lopez sent him a challenge,
and on Dec. 81 a duel was fought at the
Belgrano %hippodrome in the suburbs of
Buenos Ayres. DR.. Lopez was attended
by General Mansilla Of the Argentine
army and Francis Beazley, assistant
secretary Of state. Sarmiento was at.
tended by General Bosch Of the army
and Rear Admiral Solar of the navy.
Shots were twice exchanged at q dis
lance Of 12 PAGES. At the second dis
charge DR.. Lopez fell wounded, the ball
passing through his abdomen. He was
taken in an ambulance to his house,
where more than 200 of the leading citi-
zens Of Buenos Ayres were assembled
anxiously awaiting the result of the
duel. The wounded man died next day,
but Colonel Sarmiento had not been ar
rested when the steamer left Buenos
Ayres. Eighty years ago a decree was
issued making dueling a capital o~ffense,
but it has been a dead letter for many
years, although appeals to the code have
been common.

The split on the state state board Of
regents IN which the Collier nen got out
a restraining order against Finnerud and
the Finnerud men an Injunction against
Collier acting on the board, is thus ex-
planned by the Aberdeen News:
Some months ,go Gov. Sheldon de-
termined that President McLouth, the
head OF the agricultural college at
Brookings, together with those Of the
faculty who were McLouth's friends, in
GLIDING Secretary Ed. F. Hewitt, should
be made to walk the plank. To do this
it was necessary that the governor
should control the board OF regents.
Appointments we're made with that OBJ
ject in view, but, just as things seemed
to be working tirst-rate,,' the governor
found that he had lost his grip on Re-
gents Shannon and Finnerud, the former
OF Huron, the latter of WATERFOWL.
Shannon has beer confirmed and could
not be relched, but Finnerud was a re-
cess nominee, appointed to succeed Alex.
Mcintyre, resigned, whose term did not
expire until 1897. Finnerud's commits
slon read that he was appointed to fill
the unexpired term of Mcintyre. When
the Legislature convened, however, the
governor sent the name of DR.. G.. J.
Collier, OF Brookings, t o the senate, in
stead OF that OF Dr.. Finnerud. The
senate confirmed DR.. Collier, but DR..
Finnerud has claimed all along to be the
legally appointed regent. In the fight
between McLouth and the governor,
McLouth would win with Finnerud on
the board, and the governor would win
with DR.. Collier on the board. With
neither acting the board would b. a tie.
Last evening the regents met in conjunc.
ton with the trustees OF Brookings col.
lege for the purpose OF deciding upon
the faculty. Both Finnerud and Collie,
attempted to act, when the partizans oil
each sprung the restraining orders men
toned above.

DIDN'T sNUB THE PRINCE.
rhe Right Honorable Joseph Chamberlain
IL Not That Kind Of Q Man.

IL Not That Kind Of . Man.
The Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain,
ex-radical home ruler, whom peers and
princes now delight to honor, has been
genuinely annoyed by the circulation of
q story that he treated the Prince Of
Wales with great rudeness at the sit
tings Of the royal commission on the
aged poor, Of which both are members.
The tale ran that the prince, on being
asked why he did not complain to the
chairman Of Mr.. Chamberlain be-
havior, replied:
You see, I sit between Mr.. Cham
berlain and the chairman, and the lat
ter is rather deaf"
Mr.. Chamberlain has deemed it worth
while to get an authoritative contradic-
ton of this libel published. From this
we gather that though the chairman Of
the commission, Lord Aberdare, now
deceased, was undoubtedly deaf, he
rarely presided at the meetings, owing
to i'll health, his place being taken by
Lord Playfair, who is remarkably keen
Of hearing, and that anyhow the Prince
of Wales, if offended, would have taken
care to let it be known to the offender
himself. The latter argument is more
convincing to those who know his royal
highness and his emphatic way Of let
ting his ~displeasure be known. The
story also shows a lack Of know ledge of
Mr.. Chamberlain's character. He is the
last man in the world to give offense to
any prince, much less the heir to the
British crown London Correspondent.
