Matters In the Cochiti District.

Milo Hill, Of Bland. who is here on a
business trip, says that the report that
the Star mill had shut down and that
the Albemarle mill would soon shut

published in the Bland Herald. He says
business at Bland Is good, and would be
still better II 1t had not been for the In

EDUCATION AND CAREER.
From The London Spectator.


This question Of careers has an Importance
generation for it will ultimately decide the
question now necessarily mooted, of the best
kind of education. For twenty years past the
disposition to foster what is called technical
education" which means substantially, in all
its grades education directed to the accumula-
ton of knowledge instead of the strengthening
of the mind and character. has been increas-
nearly spent it's force. The men OF the old cult
do best in the profeSsions-an ideal instance
Lord Bowen, who, beginning a clergy
mans son, without spare siXpence was at
forty-seven a Lord Justice Of Appeal-and it
begins to be seen that a man can make a fort
une in diamonds, like Mr. Rhodes or a grand
financial reputation, like Mr.. Dawkins even
though he does know Greek.
What teaching strengthens the mind most will
doubtless be a subject of endless debate, but it
will we think soon be acknowledged that such
strengthening, and not mere knowledge, should
be the subject of education. The remarkable
comparative success in life of the sons of the
clergy, who all. with the rarest exceptions
trained in the old learning. tells heavily on
that side does, for those who know it. the
recent history of the navy One would fancy a
prior that the successful sailor would always
be sort Of Sir Cloudesley Shovel, but the sue
Cessful admiral of to-day is often a man with
the old culture and always a man of education
The advice to-day of the experienced to anxious
fathers would think. be: Get your boys
mind we'll trained develop his character as well
as you can. and then, unless you have from
connections or accident, some very special open
ing, start him along one of the old routes. IF
he wants to deviate. let him do 1t for himself
when he is a little more acquainted with the
werld" If that is good counsel there is good
hope that in the coming century the torch will
not flicker much go out altogether.

he keeps up the high tension of the true literary

least that is what appears as the gist of the
