BABIES FEED WOLVES.

A letter received from one of the
women missionaries who have per
ished by the massacre of the inmates
of the station at Shansi reveals an
awful fact concerning the disposal OF
babies in China.
One of the probationers of the mis-
sion was the wife of an opium sab
named CHA, and when her little one
was born it was feared that the wo-
man would die.
In her last letter home the follow
lug extract occurs:

COLLEGE EDUCATION.

Statistics show that college educa-

struggle of life. as the following facts
will show:
In 1896, of the . members of the
Supreme Court were college Sradu-
ates while 6 out of the ) Cabinet
officers. 1O5 members of the lower
house. and 20 United States Sena-
TORS were graduates of some college
or university.
sixteen Presidents of the United
States have been college graduates
and about three-fourths of all Cabi-
NOT officers have had the same train
ing. At the close of the civil waT
nearly every leader of prominence on
both sides was a West Pointer.
"The college-bred man gets into
his position ten years earlier than the
1neducated man, and the young col
lece men are becoming more and
more leaders of the country. a col

rec axarny. r~verty and distress. The
