Too Much Of a Contrast.

A writer in recent number of the
Scotsman has been gathering up the
traditions, literary and social, connect
ed with the buildings displaced by the
alterations consequent on the recent
reconstruction of the North Bridge.
Edinburgh. Among other buildings
now being swept away is the shop in
which Adam Black, the founder of the
well-known firm of publishers, A. & C.
Black, for many years carried on busi-
ness as bookseller and stationer, and
where the reputation of the firm was
made; and in this connection the anus
ing story giving Mr.. Blacks reason for
refusing the offer of knighthood made
to him in recognition of his great civic
services is recalled. INA, na," said he,
lit would never do to have the laddies
comm into the shop and sayin': Sir
Adam, I'll TAX pennyworth Of

NEED OF INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS
General Ludlow Says the Greatest
Drawbacks to the Cubans is Their
IIliterncy.

NEW YORK. Nov. 9-General Ludlow
military governor of Havana, reached his
homo in Flushing today. To a reporter
General Ludlow talked at length upon the
condition OF affairs in Cuba. He consid-
cred tho greatest drawback to the improve
ment Of the people their great illiteracy
Among other things ho said:
Tho condition OF the people is some
thing awful in that respect. Eighty per
cent of them are illterate. The Spanish
70: 800 years had an elaborate system of
schools and academies. The theory of these
was splendid and had they done the work
they were supposed to do things would have
been different. Very little progress has
been made by us yet, for we have been too
busy with more important matters to give
much attention to education. Still we have
made q beginning and in Havana there is
something Of an approach to schools. What
wa need most is a system OF industrial
schools in which youths of the city and
country can be taught trades, etc. Educa-
ton must be started from infancy, but the
boys now growing up must be taught some
thing useful in order that they may earn
their living. 1t is too late to start them
on thorough course Of education"

SEARCHLICHT ON OS1EOPATHY
Test Of Legality Being Made in the Case Of
Dr. Donahue,
PROCEEDINGS ARE BEFORE JUDGE BAXTER
state Board of Health Files Charges
Accusing the Defendant of Prac-
ticing Medicine without
n Certificate.

The legality OF the practice OF osteopathy
in Nebraska is on trial before Judge Baxter
in the county court A test is being male
in the case of DR.. Matthew Donahue, against
whom information was filed several weeks
ago by DR.. B. f. drummer, president of the
State Board OF Health. The specific charge
is 'practicing medicine without certif-
/ icate."
| II the case is decided against Dr. Donahue
| all the osteopaths in Nebraska will have to
cease practice, unless they carry the Issue
to the supreme court and there get favora-
BILE decision. There are about twelve prac-
titioners of this school in Omaha and other
Nebraska cities.
Osteopaths are commonly known as bone
doctors" They do not give medicine, but
rely upon sort of massage treatment, regu-
lating the afflicted parts by laying on of
hands, although in this no divine power is
claimed. The Still School OF Osteopathy at
Kirksville, Mo-, is the headquarters of this
| theory and DR.. Donahue is a graduate of
that school, He has been in Omaha about
seven months.
In the present trial DR.. Donahue is sup
ported by all members of his school who are
| residents of Nebraska, and it is likely that
the case will be carried to the higher courts
The theory of the defense is that osteopathy
is not medicine, and therefore the defendant
is not guilty as charged. few years ago
the supreme court wrestled with the Chris
tian Science proposition and decided that it
is not the practice of medicine.
Numerous witnesses are to be examined
and the case will last the greater part of
two days. Owing to the fact that it will
serve as a test, much interest is attracted,
not only among doctors, but lawyers, who
are anxious to look into the legal phase of
the proposition.
The afternoon was taken up with pre-
liminaries incident to the main issue. The
testimony yet to come will be in the nature
of definition of osteopathy, the idea being
to determine whether it is the practice of
medicine. Dr. Donahue admits that he has
been engaged in osteopathic practice and it
is further admitted that he has no certificate
from the State Board of Health But the de-
fense says: What of it, if he hasn't?"
