SPANlARDS IN FLORIDA.
Rumor of the Landing Of Marines From
the VanatlitO.

Eumor of the Landing Of Marines From
the VanatlitO.
KEY WEST, Fla, Oct. 1.-Great ex-
chement and indignation has been &C.
casioned here by report that marines
from the Spanish cruiser Conde de Van
adito has been cruising in these waters
for some time looking for tilibusterers.
1t is the general opinion that filibuster-
ers have arms and supplies secreted on
the keys north Of this city and the
Spanish cruiser has evidently been try
ing to find them.
Fishermen who came in from the
keys Saturday report that Spanish
marines have been making diligent
search. This is considered an outrage
here and a gross insult to Florida and
the United States. The state depart
ment at Washington will be asked to
investigate and demand an apology.

Much talk in Diplomatic Circles
About a Combine to En-
force 1t.
South and Central American
States Alarmed at Foreign
EncrOachmentS.
The United States Government
Will Not Be Formally Mixed
Up in 1t.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Ia number OF
diplomats resident in Washington are
talking with considerable interest on
the subject of an international agree
ment between the republics of America
for mutual protection against the ag-
gressions of European nations.
The Monroe doctrine is no longer a
principle of the United States alone
For all practical purposes relating solely
to the interests of this country within
her own territory, the Monroe doctrine
is Of less Importance than it is to every
other republic ON the continent. Ser
iCus agcrcss ssion on the territory Of
the United States is hardly to be
contemplated as likely to come from
any European government, because
those nations realize that they would
have too formidable people to deal
with. But among the republics of Cen
trail and South America there is a con-
slant dread of unjust treatment ami un-
fair seizure of their territory by nations
of Europe. For this reason the Monroe
doctrine appeals to public sentiment
south Of Mexico to a far greater degree
than it does north Of it, where the doc
trine is looked upon as a principle sure
to bring trouble when its violation has
become general.
England Helping Along.
The Venezuelan question, in which
the encroachments of Great Britain are
being experienced to an alarming de-
gree, is perhaps the most important vio-
lation of the Monroe doctrine that is
now pending. The British occupation
of Trinidad has been considered by all
the nations of Central and South Amer
ica as an instance of foreign aggression
likely to be experienced by any Of them.
The question between Great Britain and
Brazil in the case Of British Guiana is
adding fuel to the flames Of popular
alarm, and British occupation Of the
Falkland islands is pointed to as an in
stance Of how might makes right. The
Argentine government still chafes over
Great Britain's act in seizing the Falk-
land islands, and the little government
Of Nicaragua feels injured by the man
ner Of Great Britain in collecting the
$75, 600 damages assessed.
No government has yet taken any
official action looking to the realization
of this alliance, but the people of all the
governments are ready to discuss such q
proposition and diplomats are quietly
talking about the form it should take,
and the best time to bring it about. 1t
may be that this question will have
reached the stage for public discussion
before the next session of congress ad-
journs. 1t is not likely that the United
States will take any leading part in the
movement, though the popularity of the
Monroe doctrine here and the necessity
for it, immediate enforcement, would
assure The proposition of a serious hear

Plans for Great Institution at the Ma
tiOnal Capital.
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 1.-The Journal
says, on the authority of prominent
churchman, that one of the principal
matters to come before the Episcopalian
convention, to open here Oct. 2, will be
the establishment Of great national
university at Washington, somewhat
similar in its general plan to the Roman
Catholic university. 1t appears that an
endowment of $500, 900 has already been
collected from number OF sources.
Moreover, fine site in Washington has
been secured, better, if anything, than
that of the Catholic university. 1t is
understood that the most active layman
behind the plan is George Vanderbilt,
who, besides being very wealthy, is an
earnest churchman.

ELECTRICAL POWER.

How Shall We 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. =" Ny own belief is that
there is no better early preparation for
professional career Of any kind than
that given in the public schools of our
larger cities.
Having completed the public school
course, l would have him take the usual
academic course involved in prepare
ton for our larger colleges, giving more
attention to mathematics and less to
classics, but, if there be time, a great
deal of attention to both. The object Of
this period Of young mans education
Is decidedly more the training of the
mind than instruction, and for that rea-
son it matters less what the boy learns
than the habits Of thought which are
inculcated at this time.
In the study Of cumulative chem
ical analysis the student is most easily
introduced into the methods of exact
science. In it he is familiarized at the
outset with instruments Of precision,
with the niceties of manipulation which
characterize all scientific work, and he
learns to handle the atom and the MOLE
Guile 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 recpgniz=
able than are the members Of his own
family. The study of chemistry in its
definite proportions is the easiest and
surest road to 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 i'll the higher physics, for it is
the mechanism of the ether with which
the electrician has chiefly to deal, just
as it is with the various gears that the
mecbanician is concerned, - Electric

Railroad Travel In China Seems to Have
Its Drawbacks.
Having engaged coupe in the train
to Shang-I-Yuen, the only railway in
all China, I found on entering tho first
class yestib u1e car that, like the rest Of
the 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
a little cleaner, but still the coupe was
very dirty and only had the advantage
of having table, which the first one
had not, it having been broken up by
come former occupant:
After the train began to move a 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
the railway is SO badly managed and
the cars so dirty. They inform me that
they arg related to one Of the directors,
and that no doubt the dirt arose from
the number Of strangers who had travel
cd lately By the line, who do not under
