THE UNIVERSITY IDEA.

New York Evening Sun.
In no way does the new teacher show

They are to her merely so many

the street she fails to recognize them
studiously avoids doing so, in fact. OF
course this new cult is chiefly practiced at
the colleges. Private and public schools of
lower grade still foster the individual spirit
somewhat, though in less degree than
formerly. The greatest difference Is OBJ

PROSPECTS OF SUBSIDY BILL.
In q Bodied Form 1t Is Thought that
Ii May Pass.

w. G. Nicholas, in New York Telegraph
A very distinguished politician who has
just returned from Washington tells me
tfat Senator Hanna has won over nearly
all of his colleagues who were standing
in the way of the passage of the ship SUBJ
sidy bill, and that the measure, In modi-
fed form. Is almost sure to be passed. Sem
ator Mcmillan, who. in conjunction with
Senators Allison, Aldrich and Spooner,
were holding out against the bill, are said
to have abated their opposition, Mcmillan
and Spooner making complete flop, and
Aldrich and Allison consenting TO the prop
osition as amended TO meet their objec-
tons. If the two last-named gentlemen
are sincere, there is some chance for the
subsidy bill, especially II it be true that
effective measures have been adopted for
sidetracking Pettigrew and Butler, as is
intimated.
1t is well to remember that both Butler
and Pettigrew retire from the Senate with
the end of this session. Neither Is in the
very best of health, and IL would not be a
matter of surprise If they should break
down in a hard campaign of obstruction.
Such fight is test OF physical endur-
ance, and a few night sessions might bring
on one of those attacks of vertigo TO which
Pettigrew IS subject, and which incapaci-
tates him for work for days afterward and
even for weeks.
Senator Pettigrew's enemies say he can
have one of his attacks at his convenience
but that is a SANDER on the man, as he
really is rather frail Left alone to fight

would collapse in a minute. 1t is limited
that Senator Hanna enlisted in his mis-
sionary work on opposition senator's GER

Pennsylvania and Western railway systems.
He is very resourceful man, and never
knows when to quit while engaged in a
fight. He started in TO back the ship-sub-
sidy bill to win, and intends to succeed If

EGO AND LEARN A TRADE"
Judge Bakers Injunction Not Easily
Followed.
Chicago Post.

Chicago Post.
When Naaman the leper was told by
Elisha to go and wash in the Jordan seven
times, he thought the prophet had given
him a ridiculous task; but it was easy and
reasonable compared with the advice Of
Judge Baker TO a prisoner that he 'go
and learn q trade" Learning of a trade
in the United States is about the most diff
ficult thing the American youth can set out
to do. He may become a lawyer, doctor.
preacher, merchant, politician or teacher;
he may become President, senator, or con-
he faces a problem not easily solved.
Judge Baker had before him a culprit
who admitted he was forced to steal TO
make his salary of 50 a week as dry goods
clerk meet his household expenses On
learning that the prisoner was an Ameri-
can. the court pointed out that foreign
boys learn trades and that their example
should be followed by the boys of this land
If they wish to earn a competence and get
along. The American boys, said the judge,
take to clerking for small pay instead of
learning a trade.
All that Judge Baker said Is perfectly
true. American boys-every boy--should
learn some trade. 1t is the surest road 10
independence and competency. Unfortu-
nately some trades unions have made APP
premiership a rare privilege, and even the
more libs.al ones have adopted far too
many restrictions. Besides, in these days
OF machinery and minute subdivision of
labor, learning a trade has become almost
a meaningless phrase. A man learns a
fiftieth part of what was once a trade.
