CARNEGIE GIVES $lO,OOO,OOO
For Education of Children In His Native
Country.

London, May 2O.-Andrew Carnegie has
given 100000 pounds to establish free
education in four Scotch universities, Ed
inburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen and st. An
drews. He stipulates that the benehcl-
aries be his Scottish fellow countrymen"
only, no English, Irish, colonials or for.
eigners. The fund will apply to medical
as well as to commercial education and
will be placed in the hands of trustees,
who will pay the expenses of Scottish stu
dents benefited under the scheme.
Mr.. Carnegie bad for some years been
considering the plan for helping Scottish
students obtain university education. He
consulted with Lord Balfour of 3urleigh,
Lord Elgin, Thos. Shaw, Nj. P, and other
representative educators and the result
was that he presented the fund referred to
which will produce an income Of $4,000
pounds. Mr.. Carnegie's inquiries show
that the total fees paid for the four uni
versites is $4,000 pounds annually. He
considers that the 100000 pounds he
has donated will give an income sufficient
to provide free university education fol
every boy and girl in Scotland capable oi
passing the entrance examinations.
Mr.. Carnegie is determined that the
benefits shall be open to rich and poor
alike, so that there shall be nothing sug
gestive of pauperism connected with the
gift. He desires that all Scotch men anC
Scotch women shall enter the universities
on an equal footing, hence the money il
given not to the students to pay their fees
but to the universities themselves. Th'
system is made perpetualy free and will
probably be under government auspices.

Commencement Exercises 1azeWelI
High School.

The closing exercises of Tazevell High
School were begun the night of the 18th
inst. That night mixed program, con-
sisling of recitations, tabieaux, drills and
musical selections on piano and mandolin,
was rendered by pupils of the school. The
chapel was crowded, and the audience
heartily enjoyed the entertainment. The
boys and girls did their work well and
showed that they had been well and care
fully trained for their parts.
On Thursday night two plays were act
ed by pupils of the school. The first play
was "The Boarding School," and the Sec
ond "Murder Will Out" A drill, 1.-The
Vestal Virgins" came between the two
plays. The young ladies and gentlemen
who personated the characters in the plays
rendered their parts well, some of them
dipaying considerable histrionic talent. A
large audience was again present and en-
joyed greatly the earnest efforts of the
boys and girls to make the entertainment
success.
On Friday night DR.. F. V. n. Painter,
of Roanoke College, delivered the Literary
Address to the School. His subject was
"Poetry and Poems" The address was
finely written and exhibited full measure
of the excellent literary taste for which
DR.. Painter is noted. He was listened to
by large and cultured audience.

JOINT DEBATE.
Montague and Swanson Meet In MeCklen-
burg County.

Richmond, Va, May 20.-The joint de-
bate between Messrs. Swanson and Monta-
que at Boydton, Mecklenburg county, to-
day, was the most interesting event of the
present campaign. Mr.. Montague opened
the discussion by an arraignment CT ma
chine methods and paid his respects to
Senator Martin along the lines of lis Roa.
noke speech. Swanson rejoined in Wig
orous address. He denied that there was
any machine in Virginia, but said If there
was Montague was using it and lie stood
ready to help crush it, He denied that
he was creature of Senator Martin and
eulogized the Senator, saying however,
that if any one could prove he bad ever
been guilty of a corrupt act he would de-
nounce Martin. "MahOne in his palmiest
DAYS would have taken off his hat to Mon
tague as machinlsts." said the speaker.
He intimated that the question OF the
school superintendent entered into the
election of delegates and suggested that
Mr.. Montague tell who he favored for
that office in Mecklenburg. MIR. Monta-
que closed the discussion in an earnest
address. He ridiculed the idea of there
being no machine and showed that all SIM
liar mechanisms had been constructed by
United States Senators. He closed by
saving: "Mr. MARTIN has declared that
he will take Mr.. Swanson's defeat as a
personal one. Is this dual campaign fol
governor ?"

TALK WITH AGUlNALD0.
Filipino Captive Rather Reserved In
His Expressions.

Manila, May 20.-Aguinaldo in an in
teryiew with the correspondent OF the
Associated Press today, expressed the
opinion that the American government OF
the Philippines, in order to be unquestlon-
ably satisfactory, should conform strictly
to the constitution. Asked whether ne
considered the Filipinos capable of exer-
cising all the privileges guaranteed by q
literal Interpretation and application OF
the constitution, he declined to express an
opinion. -.
Concerning the political and commercial
future of the archipelago, Aguinaldo was
reserved. He said it was hardly time to
discuss it while in what he considers to be

Opposition.

The Democrats of Tazewell county, pur'
suant to announcement, assembled In
mass meeting in the courthouse on last
Tuesday. Hon. A. St. Clair was made
chairman of the meeting and j. A. Leslie
was elected secretary.
: resolution was offered to have the
voters from the several districts assemble
separately and select delegates from their
districts to the State convention, the dis
trct meetings to report their actions
to the mass-meeting for ratification.
Mr.. Baber, of Pocahonlas, offered sub
stitute resolution which embodied all the
elements of the original resolution, except
that it provided that the action of the DIS
trict meetings in the selection of delegates
should be final. His object was TO pre-
vent the mass meeting from insiructing the
delegates. Mr.. Baber's resolution pro-
voked prolonged discussion. The county
machine was very conspicuous in its hostll'
ity to the resolution, while such conser'
vative men as Major Il. r. Henry, Col. ID.
9. Anderson, Mr.. w. p. Payne and others
favored it. The machine ultimately sue
ceeded in defeating the substitute and
passing the original resolution. The dis
trict meetings were then held and elected
the following as delegates TO the State Con-

captivity. The military officials say he IS
kept guarded principally for his own pro-
lection. Aguinaldo says that he knows of
no enemies, needs no protection, and is
willing to go unattended if permitted to
do so. He is pleased with the municipal
law conferring full local self-government.
Concerning the provincial law by which
the governor only is an elective official.
Aguinaldo was uncommunicative.
1t is not expected that Aguinaldo will
continue to be prominent in Philippine
affairs, though his friends concede bis ex-
ceptlonal abilities for leadership.

The county is entitled to only thirteen

friends considered that an unlucky mum
Der and concluded to elect twenty dele
gates.
After the action OF the district meetings
had been confirmed by the mass meeting,
MIR. Z. l.. Greevel introduced resolution
instructing the delegates from Tazewell
county to cast solid vote for Hon. A. j.
Montague for Governor. The resolution
was opposed by Capt. 4, j. Tynes, Major
Henry, Colonel Anderson, w. ?. Payne
and perhaps others who had before made
speeches opposing instructions; but the
machine again run over the opposition.
The resolution instructing for Montague
was adopted by a vote of 81 to 22.
Among the striking incidents OF the
meeting was the treatment which was ac-
corded Mr.. John Baber, of Pocahontas.
He was punished for antagoniziDg the ma
chine, and was not only defeated as dele
gate to the State Convention, but was re
moved from the county committee. All
the old members cf the county committee,
except Baber were reappointed We are
told that he was first selected as delegate
to the State Convention, and then, upon
reconsideration, he was left off. Mr.. Baber
has been one of the most faithful Demo
cratic workers in the county, and now finds
that his services are only appreciated
when he works with the machine.

A SAN SALVADOR EARTHQUAKE.

in a chair on the veranda and he reclined
in a mmoc there came a rumbling and
a quaking. I instinctively knew it for
an earthquake. but l said TO my friend:

"Oh, / guess not, was the lazy reply.
But that was a shock, wasn't it?'

H EDUCATION A

IF | had to take unto myself a
youngster and saddle myself with the
responsibility of fitting him or her with
an education" said the man of the
house, Il should certainly choose a boy,
looking at the matter from a business
point of view, and laying aside all sen
timentality."
The man and his wife had been
reading about the adoption, by .well-to-
do families, of, two infants from a
founding asylum, the II a boy, the
other a girl.
Girls" went on the man, ARE So.
much more expensive when it comes 20
the question Of education. And when
the boy and the girl have been put
through the most thorough of courses
you will find that, while the boys tn
ton has been accomplished at a less
cost than has that of the girl, the girl
has less actual knowledge to show for
the expenditure"
Here the woman spoke.
1T occurs to me-" she said. that
you are involved in an impossible COM
parison. In the first place, there is no
girl. In the second place, the money
invested on the girl-although it may
be more than is spent on the, boy
brings in an UNNECESSARILY greater re
turn. l speak of matrimony. Let me
ask what you mean when you speak Of
educating a boy?"
Why" said the man, when | say
educating him, | mean educating him,
of course, not filing his head with
empty fripperies that will be of no use
to him when he gets past the age Of
going to school. Suppose the boy is
intended for a business life, the cost
of schooling him will be much less
than if he be booked for a profession.
For, to be a professional man he must
take a university course and afterward
two or three years training in the law
or medicine or theology, or whatever
he is going to be in. But when he has
passed through all this he is in pos
session of a thorough education. When
the girl has gone the course she is
empty"
You simply don't understand ed
ucation as applied to woman said
the wife. "A girl is not being educat-
ed when she is taught that five times
two are ten, or that there are so many !

hundreds of bones in the human body

We'll then, how is she educated?"
"She is educated said the woman,
SPY being sent to school as a young
child, and transferred as quickly as
possible to a metropolitan atmosphere
where she is a boarding school miss.
Now she is to learn how to walk, how
to talk, how to dress, how to appear at
the matinee, how to dress, how be-
cOmingly a bunch of ~violets, how -
hold her skirt, how to hold her eyes,
and how to make a man believe she
is interested in what he says when she
hasn't the faintest conception of the
subject. To learn these things she
must be completely tutored, and she
must pay accordingly. When she is
graduated she is able to view the world
as u woman of the world, and at the
sa me time through the apparently UNI
sophisticated eyes of a schoolgirl, ami
if she isn't then able to contract IN
alliance that will repay her parents
many fold she is an exceptional girl.
and not worth our discussing.
Education for the boy and girl is
distinctly a matter of separate stand
ards"
