BURNED TO THE GROUND.
Sisters of Mercy Convent at Fort
Dodge DESTROYED.

FORT DODGE, To-, Dec. 12.-The Sis
ters of Mercy convent, the largest frame
building in the city, was burned to the
ground early today. A high gale was
blowing and the flames spread so rapid
ly that several of the sisters were slight
ly burned before they could escape. All
of their personal effects and the large
library used in the parochial school,
where $50 pupils attended and all the
furnishings were consumed. Only $500
insurance was carried on the building,
which was valued at $4,000 1t is thought
that the fire was tncendiary. It is not
thought probable that the convent will
be rebuilt.

Better Than the Kelley
The editor of the Kemmerer Cam
era has sworn off and presents the
matter to his readers, under the above
caption, in the following language:
The Camera editor regrets with
grief that probably many will not ap-
preciate on account of the apparent
feeling of many in this city against the
writer-the unfortunate accident that
occurred at the depot Thursday even
ing, whereby a young man by the
name of Casey had a portion of his
hand cut off by falling under a moving
train. We propose to make all amends
possible by oath and henceforth by fol.
lowing the resolution and trust that in
time those that have spoken harshly
will think better Of us. The report is
in circulation that the writer heartless'
ly left him after receiving the injury,
We were not aware of the fact until
our return from Hot Springs the Mon
day following. God knows II inten,
lions are good but the flesh is weak,

as we'll as ourselves. AS we go to press
we learn that he will lose only the lit
tie finger and part of the third.

beef In the manufacture of butterine
has enhanced the price of cattle $3.50
per head and that of sheep so cents
per head.
The National Live Stock association
has. through its officers, entered a
protest against the measure. which
they claim is prejudicial to the live
stock interests, unjust to the public
and unconstitutional. 1t may well be
questioned whether congress has a
right to tax to death a valuable pro-
duct and thus crush out a legitimate
industry to give special aid to another.
The great packing firms are making
a determined fight against the bill and
If properly supported, as they should
be, they will probably succeed.

made as butter, is about as nutritious
and more palatable than a low grade
of butter. Chemists who have ana
lyzed it say that it contains nothing
injurious to health. To a poor man
with a large family it is a great boon
because without it he must buy an ar
ticle of butter that is distasteful OF
none at all.
1t is wrong to make law that would
debar him from exercising his choice
in the matter. Another point to be
considered is the fact that the quality
OF butter rapidly improved with the
introduction OF oleomargerine, owing
to competition and the price declined
We make no objection to the provision
of the law making mandatory the
stamping of oleomargerine or butterint

cles, however. that ought to be sole

were done. however, Vermont, thu

PRACTICAL COLLEGE COURSE
Director Chittenden Advises Liberal
Education Along Scientific Lines.

DR.. Russell H. Chittenden, the di-
rector of the Sheffield Scientific
School of Yale University, one Of the
greatest practical institutions in the
world, believes in the broadcast pos,
sible education. In an article in The
Saturday Evening Post he writes:
There can be no question that in
any suitable college curse in mechaH-
ical engineering, for example. there
should be a judicious commingling of
theoretical and practical. but the shop,
labratory and drawing-room work
should be mainly for the calculation of
the theoretical, and not as an end in
itself. Given a young nan of broad
knowledge, with a mind cultivated by
the higher mathematics, and with a
thorough conception of the principles
and law of physics, mechanics, hydrau'
lies, etc, and he will soon adjust him
self to the environment of his profes'
sional work, and eventually rise to a
plane far beyond that of the man whose
training has been purely technical. If
this is so. then such a method of edu.
cation is to be recommended as more
truly practical. | am told by COmpe'
tent engineers, and the statement coin
cides with my W views. that it is
very questionable if the student of en-
cheering derives as much real advan.
tage from the workshop method of in
struction as he would gain by eXpend'
ing the time in the study of scientific
principles; that the detailed knowledge
of the practical application of prin
ciples is best obtained by the young
man in the shops themselves after his
college course, and although he may
at first be handicapped, he will quickly
adjust himself to the environment and
eventually make a far more compe
tent engineer from his broader knowl
edge of scientific facts and principles
The main object of the practical col
lege course should be to provide a lib
eral education along various scientific
lines. and yet afford such facilities il
certain directions that the student may
acquire 4 proficiency sufficient to fl
him TO. one professional work, or a
least t. ave the way for further de
velOpmeiL along some special line
