NURSERIES UNDER WATER
From April Lippincott's.)

NfIOIQ April s.
The whole secret of oyster culture is
to furnish proper bodies for the attach
ment of the young. Many methods
of doing this have been devised and
employed. Although the development
of this industry on a large scale is quite
modern, seed oysters for planting have
been raised on a small scale in Italy
for more than a thousand years by the
following method. About the beginning
of the seventh century a Roman knight
(Sergius Orata) undertook the artificial
breeding of oysters in Lake Lucrie.
The enterprise was successful, and its
author in a short time became very rich
in that region and we may presume
that it is practically the same as that
invented by Serguis. Upon the black
ish mud are constructed here and there
rockeries of rough stones, thrown into
heaps sufficiently elevated to be pro-
tected from deposits of mud or slime
Upon these rocks oysters taken from
the sea are deposited. Each rockery is
surmounted by a circle of stakes The
stakes are united by a cord passing from
one to another, to which are suspended
between each two stakes a small bundle
of tWigs floating in water at short
distance from the bottom. When the
fishing season arrives the stakes and
bundles of fagOts are taken up, those
oysters are used which are suitable for
market, and then the stakes are re-
placed.
The discovery of very few interest
ing Roman pictures of the industry in
dicates that this method was used so
long ago as the days of Augustus

PEN1TENTIARY FIGURES.
CFrom the Philadelphia Times)


Some very significant figures are CIV
en- in the annual report of the inspect
ors of the eastern penitentiary. They
have some bearing upon the opinion ex-
pressed by the president in his veto
of the immigration bill, that ability to
read and write affords an unsatisfac-
tory test of desirable citizenship. OF
the 623 cOnvicts received at the peniten-
tiary last year, 492 had attended the
public schools and 3S had attended pri-
Vate schools.
only 81, or less than Is per cent, were
''illiterates,' while f0ur-f1fths of the
whole had enjoyed at least some of the
advantages OF our public educational
system.
of these 62S convicts 70 only, or less
than II per cent, had acquired trades,
50 by apprenticeship and "a by other
means; 549, or So per cent, had no trades
-Supposing that all of these nliterates
were among those without trades, we
still find that three-fourths of the con-
victs in the penitentiary had been to
school, but had never learned any use
ful occupation.
What education has done for them
was to quicken their capacity for crime
1t is possible to generaliZe too far from
a few statistics but certainly these fig
ures are significant, but of the useless
ness of education, but of its INSULT
cheney as a substitute for Industrial
training.

MISS WILLARD AMBAssADREss

Harper's weekly suggests that Presi-
dent Mckinley missed a chance to make
a very interesting appointment when
he failed to nominate Miss Frances E.
Willard as ambassadress to Great Brit
ain. ITO be sure, she is not a voter,
but no more is Colonel John Hay of the
District of Columbia If Miss Willard
had been nominated no one would have
had to inquire who she was, or any
thing about her. We all know her
more or less intimately, and have con-
fdence in her ability to adorn almost
any station. OF course, the idea of
sending her to London seemed some
what odd at first, but that is largely
because it is novel. The president
wants the senate to pass the arbitra-
ton treaty. Could he have made an
appointment more likely to bring about
that? If the lion and the eagle are to
perch together, who is filter than Miss
Willard to lead them with a string?
Why not send an ambassadress to a
country governed in the name of a
queen? Miss Willard would have un-
doubtedly come home the most popu-
lar American in England, and if it did
not rain loving cups when she left it
would only be because of her attitude
toward conviviaIity and all it's tokens .

ABOUT ANDREW cARNEaIE.

(From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.)
Mr.. Carnegie, who is 62 years old, re-
ceived his start in life by purchasing a
rev shares OF the Pennsylvania railroad
with money he had saved while working
for that company in the capacity of
telegraph operator.
He was advanced rapidly by the COM
pany until he became superintendent of
the Pittsburg division, having charge of
the line from this city to Altoona, III
miles.
His first start in the iron business was
during the war. While he was super
1ntendent of the Pennsylvania railroad,
with money raised by mortgaging his
mothers house he purchased a large
blacksmith shop, and began the man
ufacture of heavy mill tools and apph-
anceS. He also turned out cOnSidera bic
railroad work in the way OF car coup
ungs, bolts, etc. His business was so
successful that about the close of the
war he purchased an interest in the
mill Of Andrew KlOman, one of the pfo-
neer irOnmasters of this city. He man
aged the business with such shreWd
ability that he bought out Mr. Kloman's 5
interest and became sole proprietor of
the plant.
Then he organized the firm of Carne-
gle Bros. & Co., the other active mem
bers being his brother Thomas NJ Car
negie and David A. Stewart, both of
whom were brilliant men. Fabulous
profits were made and the firm began
acquiring other mills. 1t first secured
the Wilson, Walter & Co mill. Then
Edgar thompson; then came the Home
stead mill, the New Allegheny Besse-
mer steel plant at Duquesne and the
mill at Beaver Falls.
The six big plants were improved by
the addition of labor saving machinery
and the introduction of new appliances
the inventions of the officials. The
steady stream of golden dollars that be-
gan coming Mr.. Carnegie's way during
the war never stopped. He has given
to public libraries and charities from
five to ten million dollars. Mrs. Carne
gle was a Miss Louise Whitfield,
daughter of Mr.. Whitfield of 35 West
Forty-eighth street, New York.
Nothing is known here of their court
ship.
Before his marriage Mr. Carnegie re-
moved to New York. While here it was
stated the reason he never married was
because he had promised his mother
not to marry while she lived. His moth
er died during the 7O's, but it was not
until April, 1887, just ten years ago,
that he took a life partner. 1t was re-
ported at the time that Miss Whitfield
had fortune in her own right, but this
was incorrect.
Mr.. Carnegie has a host of nieces,
nephews and other relatives. who nat
urally expected to come in for the ma
jority part of his vast fortune in the
event of there being no direct heirs
The birth of the daughter, however,
may change any intention Mr.. Carne-
gle might have had in that direction
People close to him say he will leave
most of his money to philanthropic OBJ
jects.
He is strong and vigorous, and but
for a recent attack of pleurisy, from
which he is now suffering at Green
wich, Conn.,, he enjoys the best of
health
Mr.. Carnegie's fortune has been es-
timated at from $25, 900, 900 to $50, 00O,-
600. This vast sum was all made out of
iron, steel, coke and ore, of which
trades the star-spangled Scotchman is
the acknowledged king.

TFrom the Boston Transcript
The windows of the haberdashers'
shops, gay now with spring wares, are
undeceivlng those fond observers who
believed last autumn that highly col
ored Waistcoats and ties in Scotch pla1ds
set a limit to the wearing OF bright
hues by men. The cloths for waist
coats that have come fresh from Amer
lean mills or importers warehouses are
indeed no more garish than were those
of last October; and he that wears
them may still be calmly confident that
he will catch almost every wayfarer
eve. The ties of the autumn, however.
seem but pale and dull shadows OF
memory beside the glowing variety OF
those of the spring. The plaids, bright
as they were, had, perforce, measure
of regularity in their colors: while the
stuffs that the haberdashers are now
fain to substitute for them are 1nnO-

CONDOLENCES.

There was a remarkable coincidence
at the White House Tuesday. When
William Jennings Bryan entered the
presidents Office he found John M.
Thurston, who defeated him for the
senatorship from Nebraska, talking
with William Mckinley, who defeated
him for the presidency, and while he
was talking with the latter Represent
ative Connolly of Illinois appeared with
a telegram from John M. Palmer, the
candidate against him on the gold
standard Democratic ticket. Senator
Palmer made an appeal for the reten-
ton in office of c. A. Keys, the post
master at Springfield, who was ap-
pointed as a gold standard man to sue
ceed a silverite, but was not confirmed
by the senate.
