shows plainly that it will soon be one of the
best business training schools in the state, for
the many students now in attendance are pro-
crossing rapidly and new ones are continually

secured. They are practical business men,
are highly educated, and have had long and

all the branches that are Of use to the bust
ness man. Bookkeeping, Business Arith-
metic, Grammar Spelling, and the Laws of
Business are taught plainly and fully in the
Commercial Department; and Shorthand,

given in the Shorthand Department. In both
departments students must also take PENMAN-
SHIP and CORRESPONDENTS so as to be able
to write plainly, neatly and correctly the
different kinds of business letters.
This college is a branch of the splendid
Wilkesbarre Business College, and the same
effective methods of teaching Bookkeeping
and the same kinds of typewriters are used
The Commercial and the Shorthand anC
Typewriting courses together (time un
Imited) can now be had for $50 in the da!

few subjects are taken special rates viii b.

From the Spectator.
Animals when wild constantly die lin
sering death from injury to the skin,
whether caused, as usually happens in
tropical countries, by wounds aggravated
by insects, or by cutaneous disease. Hence
the pains which they take in making their
toilet and in the use and selection of COS
metics" Among birds, the salt water spe-
cies often seek fresh water to wash in; diff
ferent land birds choose different earths in
which to dust, and also WASH i'll water, and
nearly every tropical animal, including the
tiger, bathes either in water or in mud.
Perhaps the best-known mud bathers are
the wild boar, the water buffalo and the
elephant The latter has an immense adj
of its trunk for dressing wounds. 1t is at
once a syringe, powdering pull and a
hand.
Water, mud and dust are the main ZAP
plications" used, though 1t sometimes COW
ers a sun-scorched back with grass Or
leaves. wounded elephants writes Sir
Samuel Baker, have a marvellous power of
recovery when in their wild state, al
though they have gifts of surgical
knowledge their simple system being con-
fined to plastering their wounds nth mud
or blowing dust upon the surface. Dust
and mud comprise the entire pharma-
copoeia of the elephant, and this is applied
upon the most trivial as we'll as upon the
most serious occasions. l have seen
them, when in a tank. plaster up bullet
wound with mud taken from the bottom"

NOT FRIENDLY TO ABOLITION.
Never Expressed Himself Opposed to
the Lords.

Never Expressed Himself Opposed to
the Lords.
If Mr.. Gladstone is quoted rightly, his
latest utterance is apt to add to the con-
fusion which already exists in the ranks of
the opposition in parliament. the various
elements of which are likely to pull in diff
fercnt directions.
He is said to have replied to a question
that he was not conscious of ever having
given an opinion in favor Of the abolition
of second parliamentary chamber or hav-
ing used language in that direction.
This is so indefinite that almost anything
can be made out of it, or nothing at all;
but it IS apt to be taken as a backhanded
hit at Lord Rosebery and a sneer at Mr.
Labouchere At all events it will prevent
the ex-premier being quoted in any on
slaught on the peers by the radicals.
The only sign of disturbance in parlIa-
ment thus far comes from the Irish men,
bers. The nationalist party quietly elect
Justin Mccarthy chairman, but Timothy
Healy, according to the Times, began an In
direct campaign against the leader in the
shape of a motion presented by Arthur
O'Connor in favor of abolishing the COM
mittee, which has become strongly Dillonite
in its composition. This motion was de-
feated. it is reported, by "a to 26. The
Times is also authority for the statement
that after the queens speech has been
heard the nationalists will meet again to
decide whether they shall start fight in
the house by moving an amendment to the
reply,

To Test MACHINE Guns.

An important competitive test will be held
at the naval proving grounds in a short
time, in order to assist the ordnance off,
GERS in the selection of a satisfactory ma
chine gun to correspond with the small
arm just adopted for the use of the navy
and marine corps. 1t is desired to have
the calber of the two pieces correspond, or
six millmeters. 1t is expected that at least
five manufacturers will compete in the pro-
posed test of machine guns-the Calling
gun people, the owners of the Maxim gun;
the Colt Firearms Company, which has an
automatic gun; the HotchkissS company,
which owns breech invention, and the
briggs gun people, who make the machine
gun known as the Gardner gun. There may
he other machine gun manufacturers who
will wish to compete with these established
concerns. and 1t may be that novelty will
be adopted In place of the 45-caliber Calling
machine guns at present in use. The ord
nance officers are at work on the rules
which shall govern the admission of weap-
ons and the conduct of the tests.

Their Fines Refunded.

The State Department has received dis
patch from Mr.. Jackson, charge d. affaires
at Berlin, concerning the arrest of two
American citizens, Fred and Ferdinand
Kort. These men were born in Germany,
and in 1888 came to the United States, be-
ing then seventeen and fifteen years old,
respectively. They were naturalized at
Chicago in 1894. Last September they made
a visit to Germany. In March they were
arrested and fined 160 marks for failure to
perform military duty. The German gu
thorities, upon an investigation undertaken
at the instance of the American embassy,
annulled the proceedings and ordered the
return of the money. Mr.. Jackson says
that the brothers, having finished their
visit, returned to the United States. Their
resent whereabouts are unknown, and the
embassy cannot learn If the money has
been refunded.
