STATISTICS OF COLLEGES.
state Department of Instruction
VIII Take Them Up,

The state department of public in
struction has in contemplation the ad-
dlt1on to it's annual reports Of depart
ment devoted to the colleges, academies
and seminaries located in the state,
though not under state control. Pre-
llmlnary to this report, the department
is sending out circulars to such schools
as 1t has cognizance of the existence of
but as the department has not received
communications from many Of them it
Is requested that institutions send in
their names to the department at once
The circular is as follows:
The statutes of Minnesota provide that the
trustees OF incorporated colleges or seminaries
snail annually report to the superintendent
OF public instruction statement of each trus-
tee, officer Qncluding the faculty. treasurer
and student of each institution, with a state
ment OF its property, the amount of stock
subscribed, donated and bequeathed, and the
amount actually paid in, and such other in
formation as will tend to exhibit its condition
and operations
This department has frequent inquiries for
statlStlcS relating to these institutions, and it
is desirable that data be furnished for an
swering such inquiries. My next biennial re-
port to the state legislature will be prepared
IN the fall Of the present year, and the sta
tistics referred to would furnish valuable in
formation to the legislature and to the state
at large. The information should be in my
hands by the 1st of August, 1896, and give
statistics for the year 1886. Reports are
invited from institutions not Incorporated
In order that there may be such uniformity
in the reports as will permit tabulation, the
following items are asked for:
1. Name of institution 2. Location post
office). g. Name and title of principal teach
er or member of faculty. f. Length of col
lege course, If any. g. Length Of preparatory
or high school course, If any. 8. Number of
students in college course. Z. Number of
students in preparatory or high school course
8. Number of instructors employed. g. Other
information.
l would be glad to place a catalogue or cir
cular of each institution on file in my office

QUARTER FOR A HAIR CUT.
All BARRIERS of st. Paul to Adopt That
Schedule,

After three years Of disagreenents
and rate cutting, the BARRIERS of the city
have finally effected an adjustment of
their difficulties, which will go into eff
feet March 8. Beginning with next
Monday morning union hours and union
rates will obtain in every shop in the
city. Under the new agreement % cents
will hereafter be charged for haircut
ting. 1t will still be possible to get
shaved for 10 cents. as this is a union
price, though in the first-class shops Is
cents will be charged as formerly.
In regard to the hours during which
customers may be served, there are
still few minor details to be arrang-
ed, but it is generally understood that
strict Sunday closing is one of the main
features of the new arrangement.
The plans which will go into effect
Monday, were adopted at meeting Of
the BARRIERS union, held at Labor hail.
Every barber shop was represented, and
each representative anxious that some
action be taken which would do away
with the conditions Of the past three
years. The proprietors Of those shops
which having been doing work for less
than union rates, while primarily re-
sponsible for the trouble which has ex-
listed, were most anxious for read
justment, as they have come to realize
they were not making expenses at pres
ent rates.
The adoption Of the new schedule was
directly due to the efforts of the jour-
neymen BARRIERS, who, in turn, expect
that wages will in time be raised. AS a
result of the agitation, which has led to
the restoration of prices, it is altogether
likely that an association will be form
ed by the proprietors of barber shops
in ST. Paul. No such organization has
previously existed, though it's need has
often been felt. 1t is claimed such an
organization would be a great benefit
to both proprietors and employees, as it
would, in cases of disagreement, permit
Of treating with each other as organized
bodies. This question will probably be
definitely settled at a meeting of the
BARRIERS, to be held at Labor hall next

JOHN ERICSSON SCHOOL.
Fifth Anniversary Celebrated by
Teachers and Scholars.

Yesterday was the fifth anniversary
of the completion of the John Ericsson
school at jerks and Edgerton streets.
The event was fittingly celebrated by
the teachers and pupils, who were in
holiday attire, and many took adVant-
age of the occasion to visit the school,
At the entrance a large portrait of
Ericsson, encircled with evergreen and
flowers, met the visitors eye. The
principal, Miss Harriet E. Ruddy,
showed the visitors every attention.
The work of the school extends from
the kindergarten, which is under the
supervision of Mrs. Ames and her as
sistant, Miss Ellen Mattocks, to B
Fourth, taught by Miss Louise Roth.
The teachers are Miss Alice l. Perry,
Miss Mary Holland, Miss Julia Griffin,
Mrs. Caroline Allyn, Miss Alice Shields,
Miss Frances Nicoll, Miss Mary l..
Smith, Miss Emma Robbie and Miss
Louise Roth.
One of the most noticeable features
besides the lessons was the seemingly
perfect spirit of unity that existed
among the teachers. Discipline and or
der were noticeable in every room.
The pupils recited as on ordinary days,
and parents were given an opportunity
to see their offspring In the midst Of
their work. The work on the walls was
that which had been done some time
previous, and not purposely for eXhi-
bition. The most interest, perhaps, CEN
tered in the kindergarten. The pupils
in the school number nearly 500. 1t pos
sesses also a band Of twelve pieces.
Yesterday the band was stationed at
the first landing on the stair case, and
played while the pupils went through
their exercises and drills in the various
rooms.
Probably the proudest woman in the
building yesterday was the principal,
Miss Ruddy. Miss Ruddy has been in
the Ericsson since it was opened, and
seems identified with everything in it.
After the exercises the teachers were
entertained at tea

Interested in Rainy Lake Gold.

Sterling Smith, a prominent realty dealer
of Duluth, spent portion of yesterday in st.
Paul, on his way to Chicago, where he will
meet several Windy City capitalists, with
whom he is interested in gold and iron in
vestments in the Rainy lake and Mesabe
country.
Mr.. Smith, who early entered the Rainy
lake gold fields, has abiding faith in the ex-
istence of the yellow metal in sufficient guam
titles to warrant the expenditure of consider
able money in the way of machinery, stamp
mills, etc., and has taken an active part in
the development Of the country. He has a
number Of profitable holdings also in the
Mesabe iron range, secured early in the iron
craze, and, for that reason, under favorable
conditions. Mr.. Smith left last night for Chi
cago, and will return home in several days.

sOUSA,s MONEY MARCH.
successful Trip to the Coast by the
Musicala REORGANIZATION

From reports received from the man
aegement, by Northern Pacific officials,
1t is evident that the tour of the West
made by Sousa's band, was much in the
nature Of an ovation.
Ihe report Of cash receipts at the diff
ferent places where the band PLAYED. is
simply astonishing. Commencing with
st. Paul and Minneapolis and Duluth
up to and including Portland Or, the
pand gave twenty-five concerts, the
gross receipts of which approximate
$4,000, and In most places the capacity
OF the theaters was insufficient to ac-
ccmmodate the large audiences. A gen.
eral idea of the trip from here to the
west may be gathered from the follow
inG figures showing gross. .recaints.
