Two New Colleges for Women.

News comes from the widely separated
countries of Japan and Central America
ofinitial work for the higher education
in the movement are men.
J. Naruse has been working on the idea
OF a university for women in Japan for
several years. He made an uphill fight,
but has finally succeeded in interesting
many of the rich and powerful men of the
empire. Marquis Ito has subscribed
largely, and his example has been follow
ed by other officials. The Mitsui family,
said to be the richest in Japan has given
magnificent site in the richest east sub
urbs of Toxic. There are seven acres in
the plot, and little change will have to be
made to give the new university as fine
campus as any in the empire. Sufficient
subscriptions and gifts have been received
to warrant letting building contracts.
and active work upon them will begin
this month. 1t is expected that the uni
versity can be opened in April, 1901, and
there seems no doubt that the number
of students will be large, although higher
education for Japanese women is an in
novation. Mr.. Naruse has been nomiu-
ated for president, and probably will be
elected Some of the brightest educators
Japan has produced will be in the faculty.
1t is intended that the best features OF
colleges for women in other countries
shall be used for Japan's first venture.
-Four years ago DR.. Joseph S. Jenckes,
fc nerly rector OF st. Paul's Episcopal
church at Indianapolis, Ind, visited the
republic of Honduras on pleasure trip.
He found that all the better class OF ma
tives wanted their girls to have an Amer
lean education, and to learn the English
language, believing that it was the des-
tiny Of the country to become some
day part of the United States. Upon
the solicitation of the leading citizens of
Honduras, inclunding two ex Presidents,
DR.. Tenckes was induced to open school
at Santa Cruz. The idea of an American
education has so spread since then, that
twenty-eight rich Hondureans have sub
scribed almost enough to build an Ameri-
can college for girls, the balance being
given by the government. Temporary
buildings have been provided, and per-
manent stone structure will be erected
during the year. Authorized by the gov.
ernment, DIR. Jenckes came to the United
States this summer to secure teachers
aud instruments, apparatus and sup
plies. Last week he sailed from New Or
leans with faculty and other essentials
for the opening of the new college Wo-

WHERE THE LABoRER COMES IN.
An Important Question Which May
Cause Trouble to settle.

SCRANTON, Pa. Oct Now that a
convention to consider the 10 per cent. offer
is assured, attention Is turned TO the ques-
ton of what the companies mean by 10 per
cent in the case of the miner and his
helper. The miner works by contract, and
pays the laborer out of his earnings. AS
a rule the miner cuts six loads of COAL for
which he gets $50. Out of this he pays
for powder, oil and repair, for tools. and
the wages of his helper. The laborer's pay
is fixed at so much per diem. and in this
region II averages about sl75
After paying the laborer and the expense
of powder. oil. ETC., the miner has about
$3.50 left for himself. A 10 per cent. adj
vance gives the miner 60 cents extra. daily.
The laborer wants his 10 per cent. or IS
cents and as a consequence the miner
must be content with AZ cents. or per
cent But I'm many instances miner has
two laborers This means that s. cents
must come out of his So cents, and the
miner finds himself enjoying an advance
of only per cent.
Just how the operators want this offer

operators say that the men who framed
the offer either did not have I'm mind that

of all time Some people say there is a
decay of religious life. but these people do
not discriminate between tradition and
Christianity. There is a vast difference be-
tween these two. When Christ went
among the Jews after he left his home
He found that nearly every rabbi had for
himself and tribe set of laws with which
he served God. These laws were made
by each rabbi so that they would be easy
on his followers. They were In sense
hypocritical When Christ found this state
OF affairs He went about to break up the
practices and to found new religion.

we have the Bible for our guidance, that
book which Is inspired by God himself. II

writing, but has withstood it all. Every
