YOUNG GRADUATES.
Hasbrouck Pupils Enter Col
lege Two Years Ahead
Of Those Of High
School.

The Advisory Board Of Hasbrouck In
stitute met last evening in the Institute
building. Judge Gilbert Collins in the
chair, and among those present were the
Rev. Cornelius Brett, the Rev. Charles
Herr, the Rev. John 4. Scudder. DR.. Bur
dette Post Craig. Messrs. George Corri-
gan, Joseph A. Dear. j. e. Hulshizer,
George F. Perkins, John J. Voorhees, and
Joel w. Brown.
Professor Stimets made an address, taxi
ing the nature of a report on the OPEN
ing Of the school, in which he said there
was a marked increase In the attendance
Of the Academic Department, and that an
unusually large number of pupils had
slgnified their intention Of going to COL
lege. He said there were in the pres
emit graduating class seventeen or eigh-
rious universities, which is nearly double
the average number heretofore prepare
from year to year.
This fact, the principal said, Is extreme
ly satisfactory to the management, as
1t is felt hat preparation for college is
one of the highest spheres, and eyen
where the intention is not Of going
through, 1t Is Of benefit for the pupil to
aim at some definite standard, such as
entrance to college,
Following this was a general discussion
the course of studies and the scheme
of the work. The Educational Committee
! reported that 1t was preparing a compre-
hensive statement regarding the work
done which would be ready for p~resenta-
ton to the Advisory Board at a future
meeting some time before the close OF
the year.
In the course of discussion the fact was
brought out that the average age of grad
yates from the Hasbrouck Academic De-
partment was about two years lower thar
that Of Jersey City High School grad
| yates. and that graduates from the inter
mediate grades averaged two years
ounge than those from the Grammar
Department of the public schools. THU
! fact being largely due to the smaller
| classes Of Hasbrouck, and the consequent
| closer attention the teachers are able te
| give.
Professor Stifnets also mentioned, among
| other things, that q course of lecture!
would probably be instituted this term
with a view to broadening the influence
Of the Institute.

seemed to be on good terms with every

He greeted the great boss OF the Repub-

did Tom. Dick and Harry of the Newark

had much to say, in the up-to-date style,

The few Republicans present who do not
occupy exalted positions in the party be-
cause they will not submit their necks

this information In an ominous way. 1t
seemed to them hat the services Of young
Mr.. Russell In the senate would be just
as valuable to Mr.. Elijah Gaddis as they
would be on the road hustling samples,
and as the young man would continue In
the employ OF the firm and draw Its
money With p~unctpality, he could be re-

HUDSON. N. T. Oct. 9.-An out
break of violence occurred among the
inmates at the State House OF Refuge
here yesterday afternoon. Fol the last
few months the institution has been
conducted on reform lines, one OF the
principal changes being the apolish-
ment of corporal punishment
The outbreak oceurred after the
afternoon services in the chapel In 1t
were concerned about 100 OF the women
in the prison. They tore down gas
pipes. water pipes. waste pipes ana
electric light fixtures and their leader,
Kate Mccormick, attached a hose to a
hydrant and on the appearance OF the
matrons she gave them a taste OF the
douche with which the matrons for
merry used to punish the diS0rderly
girls. The girls broke all the windows
in the prison and demolished the furni-
ture in the dining room. In the midst
of the scene OF disorder Miss May, the
superintendent, appeared and was
greeted with oathS and teers- Miss
May called on Police Headquarters for
aid and Chief Lane. Sergeant Cruise
and officers Guthrie and HaIrnbeck
had ali they could do to quell the riot
Gus women. 1t was at one time neees-
sary for Sergeant Cruise to draw his
revolver to defend himself and the
natrons from the women, who, armed
with chair rungs, threatened to attack
them.
It is said that fully $500 damage was
done by the inmates. The noise at
tending the outbreak, the screams OF
the girls, their imprecations and
threats were heard In this city. 1t Is
said on Friday the new board Of
managers will meet to adopt methods
of corporal punishment for the incor-
rigible inmates. Complaint is made
by the police OF this city that they are
constantly called on to do duty for the
institution, for which they receive no
pay. Yesterdays case Is an instance.
why don't they borrow Mrs. Eyler for
a day or two?

Trust News Of a Day

New York WORLDLY
In the industrial news Wednesday,
the 9Th, were accounts Of the usual
number of trust organizations:
1. A glove trust with 500, 900, 900 CAPT.
tai stock. 1t purposes not only to con-
troll the American manufacturing and
market, but to build up an export
trade. I'VE are satisfied that we car
undersell European manufacturers
abroad" says the promoter. Gloves, of
course, are heavily 'protected' under
our tariff.
2. A combination of the manufacture
ers Of sensitized Photographic paper
with a capitalization of $13, 900, 900.
8. A cotton duck trust with a CAPT.
~talization of $25, 500, 900.
4. The bobbin trust with a capital Of
$4,000, 900.
5. The tobacco trust, which has long
had a monopoly of the cigarette bust
ness, is now reaching out for all the
smoking tobacco manufactures and
has 'taken in" some of the largest in
dependent concerns Of the west.
6. The American Tin Plate Company
is CLOSING up many of it's acquired
plants" throwing many workmen out
of employment.
The only surprising thing is that
there were still so many uncombined
industries in the country, after the ex-
traordinary multiplication of trusts
thai has followed Mr.. McKinley's in
auguration.

A Good Thing TO Leave alone
C'Texas Farm and Ranch.")
Farm and Ranch:

Editor Farm and Ranch:
have always looked upon your paper
as the best friend the farmer of the
state had, and I beg to congratulate
you on the stand you take in regard
to the round bale press. 1 have just
read your reply to James Best, in your
issue o. the 22nd, and it is so exactly
my views, after a careful examination
OF the matter, that I beg every cotton
planter in the south to take he advice
therein given, and let the round bale
people alone; there is a mighty con-
spiracy in this thing to get control OF
the cotton crop, and if it is done, good
bye to the last semblance of indepen-
dence and freedom that the cotton plant
er has left, this is now so trodden
down as to only exist in Name, but
with a company who has the money
behind it that the round bale company
has, to get control of the staple of any
country is to virtually sell the free
dom of those who can only raise that
particular staple as a money crop.
From what I vas told by a member
Of the present legislature, / am salts
fled that the contract that was exsib-
tied to that body and the n that these
people are actually offering ginners to
sign are two distinct and altogether
different instruments, so much so that
they do In no way resemble.
This company proposes to give As
points higher for cotton than it can be
sold for at the nearest market, but their
guarantee is for one season only, and
their contracts for lease are only for
one year. If this WAS really as good
a thing as it appears, there would be
millions of dollars profit in the manu-
facture and sale Of these presses, and
any concern who are after a square
thing, would want to create competi-
ton for their goods, this is not the case
with these people. They do not want
competition and won't let one press be
put in to compete with another. Where
there is no competition there are sure
to be jobs, and in all such cases the
producer pays for the music.
I had at n time hoped that the leg
islature would take such steps as to
restrain this trust" but it seems that
the matter has been laid out, Or for
gotten, and as there was a strong dele
cation of these people in Austin not
long ago, I supposed the thing was
fixed all right
1t will be well for ginners Of the
state to look to the large monied in
terest they have at stake, as we'll as for
the farmer to do so; for if this thing
works it will retire every ginner in the
country and his machinery will be
worth old iron, may be.

Mr.. L. II. Head, or Alabama says:
Il am we'll pleased with my new
sized press box, which I altered last
season to 24x54 standard. I packed
just as heavy bales as I did when press
box was old size, 2Sx54. / used a
double box Munger press, which turns
out a beautiful, well-proportioned
smooth bale.
"The cost Of altering boxes was small
not over So or $40. One great trouble
with giners, they take but little pride
in turning out a we'll put up bale, often
times using very inferior or second
hand bagging and ties, and seldom
sewing Up the heads of the bales, there
by leaving the cotton exposed. It is
hut little more trouble to put up a nice,
w~ell-protected bale than a ragged
erded, irregular shaped bale.
I believe it would be to the interest
of all men who raise and handle cotton
if the new standard press box was
adopted by all ginners, and I wilT>co-
operate with them and the compress
men in any way in my power to bring
about such uniformity of action. have
received some overtures from the round
bale syndicate to put in their system.
1t appears to me that it would be a
great calamity to the growers of cotton
if they get a firm grip on u.s."

To Farmers Advantage


Mr.. John Goodwin, of Georgia, well
pleased.
81 am very well pleased with the
way it works. / could tramp in just
as much in the 24x54 as / could in the
old press, 26x60, but when l turned the
steam on to pack I could pack with a
great deal less steam. With the old
box l ran one 60-saw gin. 1t took all
the steam to gin and pack. Now I
run two 60-saw gins, and can gin and
pack just the same. / like it a great
deal better.
II received several letters from Nc
Fadden Bros. last summer in reference
to the change and did all l could to get
the ginners to change their boxes, and
succeeded in nearly every case. l think
it will be to our advantage as ginners
and farmers % make the change at amy
cost"
Messrs. C. L. Croxton & Bro, of
Georgia, says:
we do not see why any n should
object to having a press box Of stand
ard dimensions, as there is no more
difficulty in pressing a bale of this size
box than in the one we had before
changing. We cannot see why there
should be objection to the change"
