FOR WOMAN
Inutility Of the Proposed State Training
School For Young
Mothers.
Remarks Concerning Recent Suggestions
by Chicago Newspaper
Writer.

In the Chicago Times-Herald of recent
issue Amber has something to say that
ought to be of interest to every mother
who prides herself upon being capable
in that office.
amber" never has had very great
liking for the women's clubs and she ad
vises women to give them over for awhile
and start training school for mothers.
The idea, though perhaps not seriously
entertained by the woman who suggested
it, is nevertheless good, SO far as it is
practicable. But the fact remains that
the girl who is not womanly girl and an
earnest girl in school would not be
motherly mother nor an earnest student
of that science-it is a science-were
there fifty training schools for mothers
in every city in the land. A good mother
is born, and seldom trained. 1t is of
course, possible to train a woman to be a
competent mother if she has the desire
to be one, and the willingness to admit
that possibly she is very poor one.
Usually women regard their own children
as being well trained, well endowed in
every way, and to tell them different is
to antagoniZe them. That is part of the
animal side Of motherhood. The proper
training school for mothers is the home;
the state cannot accomplish for it's people
what those separate individuals do not
see fit to make an effort to accomplish
for themselves. There are women and
women who never will be mothers, not
the sort Of mothers that Heaven recoG
niZes anyway.
They will bear children as circumstan-
ces direct but those children might as
well be fed and trained like Remus and
Romulus for all that sort of mothers ap-
preciate or care. If half-witted son
gives neighbor needless insult, that can
not be avoided; if half-trained daugh-
ter makes a nuisance of herself it is the
result of imagination in those who do not
see what dear children that mothers
are!
Training schools by the score would not
help the dilemma much. What's in the
blood will come out in the bone; badly
reared daughter will be badly enlight-
ened and grossly prejudiced mother;
she transmits it to her progeny, they to
theirs, and the state can whistle or con-
fine them in jails and reformatories, or
society can condemn them. Be it as it
may there is no permanent redress for
bad blood. If schools of training are
what is wanted let us train them before
they marry, prohibiting the vicious from
mating, and in case they do, clip their
g civil rights to at least the degree which
would make it possible for the state to
protect itself. Bad blood is at the bottom
Of all harms

heart, on the best terms with science
A genial demeanor seems to accord best
with the nature Of women, who are never
pardoned when they usurp the serious
gravity of the strong sex. The Muses. are
anything but morose. Apollo is the most
charming among the gods. If the divine

GUIDE POSTS

Signs in the desert, Indicating the trails
and giving directions as to the nearest
springs and wells of fresh water, are to
be erected by Arizona and California in
the desolate regions on either side of the
Colorado river, where so many tragedies
have occurred through miners and others
losing their way or dying from thirst.
The signs are high poles of gas pipe, with
big squares of sheet iron at the top, and
are painted red, as that is the color that
can be seen the greatest distance in that
region. The lettering will tell the distance
from point to point and the location of
the nearest water holes.

Bennett winn is Dead.

When these words passed among
our people last Friday afternoon,
they carried sorrow to all who heard
them. He was one of the best known
and most highly esteemed of our
citizens. Having resided in this
community all his life, being Of an
exceptionally kind and genial nature
Of correct habits and perfect Integrity,
twas but sequence that he was
widely known and enjoyed in an un-
usual degree the respect of his neigh
bors and acquaintances. His popu-
larity had been proved by his election
as city treasurer for two terms and as
justice OF the peace, each time being
a nominee OF Il party in the minority.
His integrity had been demonstrated
IN faithful discharge of public duties,
honorable personal dealings, and ad-
herence to principal under all circum-
stances. He was a natural musician,
and for years, until physically dis
abled, was an active and popular
member of the Mineral Point Band.
Deceased was born in Mineral Point
in July 1857. In 1883 he married Miss
Cynthia Mankey, who, with two
daughters, aged | | and 2years respec-
lively, survive him. The funeral on
Sunday was one of the largest and
most impressive ever seen in the city
The Mineral Point Band acted as
escort, playing suitable pieces, Scr
vices were held in the NJ. T.. church,
of which Mr.. Winn was devoted
member, and the honored remains
were deposited in Graceland ceme-
terry, Rev. +. w. straw officiating.

THE Old Time Concert on Tuesday
evening drew good house, and was
worthy of the patronage 1t received.
All parts We're admirably rendered.
Mr.. j. w. Walker, who made his first
appearance before Mineral Point
audience, won rounds of applause
that attested high appreciation Of
his magnificent voice. The Hoare
Brothers, as usual, were stars. Adam
Dresen's rendering of the Blue Bells
of Scotland as a cornet solo was sup
erb. Miss Shaw delighted all with
her sweet violin as she always does.
SAMUEL HocKING, accompanied
by his little son, departed yesterday
to see the great southern exposition
at Atlanta, Ga, and other spots Of
interest thereabouts. The last time
Mr.. Hooking tried to enter Atlanta
was in defense of the union, some
thirty years ago. Then he was held
in check just outside the corporate
limits by confederate bullets, one of
which he carries in his body today.
1t il hoped that his second visit will
be as warm Hospitality as was his
first rebelliously.

New York, May 29.-The English
statician. Michael G. Mulhall, pub
fishes in the June number Of the North
American Review, just issued, an art-
Gle on The Power and Wealth Of tho
United States"
Mr. Mulhalrs conclusion is that If
we take a survey of mankind in an
cient or modern times as regards the
physical, mechanical and intellectual
force OF nations, we find nothing to
compare with the United States in this
present year of 1895, and that the
United States possesses by far the
greatest productive power in the world.
He asserts that the absolute effective
force of the American people IS now
more than three times what 1t was in
1860. and that the United States pos
sesses almost as much energy as Great
Britain. Germany and France c0llec-
lively. and that the ratio falling to each
American is more than what two
Englishmen or Germans have at their
disposal. He points out by q careful
comparison between the conditions IN
these different countries that an ordl-
nary farm hand in the United States
raises as much grain as three in Eng
land. four in France, five in Germany,
or six in Austria. One man in America
can produce as much -four as will feed
25O. where as in Europe, one man feeda
only 80 persons. Mr.. Mulhall calls spe-
cial attention to the fact that
THE INTELLECTUAL POWER
Of the great Republic is in harmony
with the industrial and mechanical, 81
per cent. Of the total population over
ten years of age being able to read ana
write. at may be fearlessly asserted,
says he. that in the history Of the hui
man race 10 nation ever before pos
sessed forty-one million instructed
citizens
The writer sets forth in regard to
the growth of the wealth Of the United
States that he average annual incre-
mcnt from 1921 to 1896 was nine hun
dred and one millions OF dollars and
he asserts that the new wealth added
during a single generation-that IS, IN
! the period of thirty years between 1860
and 1890-was no less than forty-nlne
milliards of dollars, which sum is one
milliard over the total wealth OF Great
Britain"
Classifying the whole wealth of the
Union under the two heads Of Urban
and Rural. Mr. Mulhall finds that ru-
raj or agricultural wealth has only
quadrupled in forty years while Urban
wealth has multiplied sixteen fold. In
en- important series CT figures it IS
shown that the rise in wealth and the
increase of wages came almost hand
in hand" In dealing with the develop
ment Of farm values Mr. Mulhall makes
! the following statement: IF the
United States had no urban population
or industries whatever, the advance Of
agricultural interests would be enough
to claim the admiration Of mankind,
for it has no parallel in history"
