ANDREW CARNEGIE'S GIFT.
Dean of Columbia University Thinks
1t Will Embarrass Scotch Schools.

NEW YORK, May 22.-Regardng Andrew
Carnegie's gift of 100000 to private edu-
cation in the Edinburgh, Glasgow, St An
drews and Aberdeen universities for Scotch
students, and the fact that the students
fees to the payment of which the gift is
devoted do not amount to more than 9l0
d year for each student, while the univer-
sity expends from $50 TO $50 in educating
him, Prof. Van Amir, dean of Columbia
University, said last night:
I'm any well-conducted university the
tuition fees do not pay anything like the
cost of tuition. 1t is with US and So
take ii, with every progressive, first-rate
institution. The plant, the things you must
provide for administering the institution
IN the best possible way, cost more than
would be feasible for the student to pay.
After you get certain number of students
you must increase the teaching staff and
enlarge the laboratory facilities, and in
.that sense a large increase of students
would mean an increased expenditure but
not necessarily an expenditure in proper
uon. Mr. Carnegie's gift is no doubt a
munificent one, and its intent is liberal and
humane. have a feeling, however, thai
what you get too cheaply you esteem too
lightly. 1t is unquestionably true, as |
have said, that students fees do not pay
what 1t costs to educate them, and a large
increase of students at university would
entail increased expenses for teachers and
laboratory accommodations"

with Demands Granted.

WASHINGTON. May %. President
O'COnnell, OF the International Association
of Machinists. estimates that the total
number of machinists on strike to-day is
10000 He claims to be satisfied with the
situation and has confidence in the result.
"By next Monday morning" he said,
probably 30 per cent. of the men who went
out will be back at work, with their de-
mands granted. The other 10 per cent. are
mostly on The Pacific coast and in several
Ohio cities. San Francisco is the only
place where we look for protracted strike.
The situation there is good and the strike
may cover several weeks. No important
developments are reported at Cincinnati,
though about fifteen small firms have
signed the agreement. The situation also
is unchanged a Hamilton, Dayton and ALI
ance, O., and Tacoma and Seattle, Wash.
Reports from all other sections indicate
that negotiations are progressing and that
agreements are in sight.

Labor. arrived in Chicago to-day from Gin
cinnati He is here 10 settle disputes exist
ing among various labor organizations.
Discussing the machinery trades situation
President Gompers said: THE old New
York agreement between the machinists
and the manufacturers of machinery has
been broken by the latter, and the fight of
the machinfstS for a nine-hour day and
proper wages will be carried on to a finish.
The nine-hOur day is a settled fact in the
machinery trade, and the wages will come.
The demand of the international Assoca-
ton of Machinists is strictly fair. A ma
jority of the skilled trades and many of
the unskilled trades already have an eight
hour day. and II is a shame that the ma
chinists, the most highly skilled of all.
should be compelled to strike to get nine
hours. The manufacturers say they made
a concession in granting nine hours. The
situation far is most satisfactory, and

To the Editor Of the indianapolis Journal:
The following testimonies from the form
er presidents and others speak for them
selves
1.-The public owes debt Of gratitude TO
the Boys Club workers. who, by wise
and systematic use of voluntary offerings
have accomplished much more than could
be done by haphazard outlay and have
brought untold good to the boys their
homes and parents. NJ. V. Meg.
1T is my conviction that the Boys Club
constituency have found the right base
for their superstructure and II the clu-
zens will stand by them with pecuniary
support their efforts to restrict the manu-
featuring Of criminals and TO bring glad
ness and hope into the lives of the boys
will be successful in the largest degree
Does 1t pay to save these boys? Were ii
my boy | would say yes, thousand times.
How much more these stray lads need the
helping hand and the transforming iniiu-
enceS of the club. D. w u
81 doubt If any manufacturing house in
this city is more instinct with life or more
economically administered for the utiliza-
ton of time space and effort than the busy
hive of the club under the superior man
agement of the superintendent, Miss A. b.
Grayoon. But now comes the rub. All this
entails expense, and unlike the factory,
endowment should meet with hearty re-
sponse.' w. j. X.
while it is true that the most notice
able effect of the work of the club is in
the Improvement of the boys themselves,
and through them their homes yet this is
not all, for the good work has its reflex
influence upon the neighborhood. Ask OBJ
serving men in the adjacent factories and
they will tell you that TO their neighbor
hood the Boys Club is a constant bene-
diction. s. q. p.
mo one who has been intimately asso-
ciatcd with the detail work OF our club
will consider il exaggeration when l
say that this season of go has been a most
wonderful time Of usefulness; 452 boys,

themselves with the club. Attendance al
