REVIVAL OF INTEREST IN
THE VOLUNTEER MILITIA
Attendance Upon Drills Larger Than Formerly.
Proposed Trip to Buffalo-Talk of Annual
Encampment- Parade at
Opening of Carnival.

There 10 Cnquestionably a revival OF II
terest in military matters in Virginia
This is especially true of Richmond. At
the weekly drills the attendance is much
larger than formerly. Recruits are COM
ing in at nearly every meeting.
Richmond has now eight military or
PLANTATIONS. There are five companies IN
the Seventeen Regiment in Richmond,
TWO companies in the Blues Battalion
and one battery Of artillery-the Howit-
zcrs.
While Richmond has lad at various
times a larger number Of companies, sell
dom, if ever, before. have the organiza-
tions oeen better differed or been COM
posed of better material.
"TRIP TO BUFFALO
A matter that is just now interesting
the soldiers OF the Seventeenth in no
small degree is the proposed trip to Buff
falo. n. Y, next summer. The great Pan
American Exposition will attract hun
dreos of thousands OF people to that city
IT has not been positively decided to take
the trip. Many of the men are most
heartily In favor of going, and some have
already begun to save up money to pay
their expenses. Colonel Anderson is said
to rather favor going into cncampment
at some place on the seacoast to The
Buffalo trip.
There is some talk, too. of the Slues
going to Buffalo. They will either take
at Hartford going or returning.

nurses is a welI-equipped hospital that
during the winter has been filled to
overlooking. The superintendent Of nurs-
es was graduated from college In
Toronto, Canada, and has since been in
charge of a department at her home. in
Michigan. At present there are eighteen
undergraduate nurses. The medical staff
gives lectures during the week. and,
besides the practical work in the hos
pital, the embryo nurses are sent out
to sick patients. Those who have had
outside cases have proven very satisfac-
tory. The medical staff is composed Of
Drs. r. E. Jones, A. w. Farrar. Chas-
White, Sarah G. Jones, B. 3. Ramsey
and David Ferguson.
THE DRESS1AKERS.
Probably the best results are seen in
the dressmaking department. The tail
oring system is taught and the classes
are most enthusiastic in their work,
showing marked ability and cleverneSs
with the needle. Connected with this is
an exchange for women's work, where
all sorts of work, both useful and orna-
mental are sold.
Besides the different educational de-
partments. what might be styled an en-
ploymcnt agency is being conducted. 1t
is called the Woman's Central League
and boasts six hundred members. Many
first-class servants have been supplied
from among the members.

Some of the Howitzers would like to
go 20 Buffalo, but it is not likely that this
orga nization will go as a body.
ENCAMPMENT SCHEME.
The annual encampment scheme meets
with much favor among otticers anG
men. 1t has the most hearty support of
Col. Anderson and Major Lanier. 1t is
very likely that at the next session Of
the Legislature an effort will be made
to have the General Assembly make an
appropriation for the purchase Of
grounds at some place on the Seashore
where the soldiers can spend several
days every year. There are many per-
sons who think Virginia should follow
the example OF some other States and
pay the men for the time they lose
from business while in camp.
1t is probable the out-of-town COM
panies of the Seventeen Nlll be urged
to come to Richmond on Hollywood
Memorial Day, in order that the whole
regiment may parade The Blues and
the Howitzers will, of course, turn out
on that occasion
CARNIVAL PARADE.
It has been suggested by some that it
would be we'll 20 inaugurate the Carnival
with great civic and military parade.
The railroads would give very cheap rates
and the soldier boys in all parts of the
State would be glad 10 come. Virginia
could turn out two crack regiments and
several detached organizations. and the
military display would rnquestionably be
a fine one.

miles away.
WAS NEVER SEEN AGAIN.
And lierc the ridiculous part iof the
affair comes in. Several officers OF
cadets were detailed to carry the prisoner
to Christiansburg that night, and when
they had gotten nearly out of town he
asked them to let him stop at certain
house and go in and get some clothes.
They agreed to this He entered, and
when he came out he fired pistol point
Blank at his guard, and escaped in the
darkness. He was never seen again in
the neighborhood up to the time I left
college, and I suppose he must have left
the country.
Among. some Of the ignorant people
OF the neiShborhood the belief became
prevalent that the cadet guard dis
posed of the prisoner on the road to
Christiansburg, but this was entirely
untrue.

The Institution Is Doing Fine Work In
Giving Negro Women Manual Training.
Efforts TO Improve The
Curriculum.

Among the prominent educators there
Is no more momentous question to-day
than that of manual training schools
and their efficacy Some weeks ago Dr..
Trisseli. of Hampton Institute, in his ad
dress at the Woman's Club, urged the
necessity of these schools especially
among the colored contingent OF the
city. Too many books, TOO few ideas
he said, was the trouble with the pres
ent system.
Mr.. William f Fox. in his excellent
talk last week at the Woman's Club.
said that the colored element in the Rich
snond schools is two-fifths. With these
facts in view. the progress made by the
colored training school is Very crafty
ing.
WHAT is TAUGHT
This school was organized about three
years ago by DR.. z. L. Jones. the we'll
known colored physician. of this city.
who has been mainly instrumental In the
success of the enterprise.

uate of Hampton Institute. is well ed1-
Gated and understands perfectly the al t
OF teaching. She has two classes and
directs her pupils how TO cook proper
ly. how TO plan meals, how to serve and
also teaches cleanliness enI economy.
DR.. Jones IS now trying to have this
course IN cooking included in the curri-
culum OF normal schools-to make It
necessary 70 take a diploma here before
being conpeten: to receive one from the
normal school. The afternoon cooking
classes would not interfere with the
regular school work.

For the Prevention Of Sweating.
New Zealand does all 1t can to prevent
sweating or house industry at starvation
wages. There are laws against taking work
home from the factories, and the employer
who allows his workmen to do so is sub
ject to penalty not to exceed $50. while
the workman himself can be fined $25. All
work done for factories outside the fac
tories by other parties must be recorded
and also the names and addresses of the
persons by whom said work is done togeth-
er with the amount paid for the same Amy
one who gets work from a factory is not
allowed to sub-let it under a penalty of a
heavy fine. He must do the work himself
have 1t done by his own workmen on his
premises. A label at least two inches square
must be put upon all goods made outside
the factories showing just where the goods
were made and how. The failure to affx
such labels is Table to penalty as high as
$50 for each offense and the removing them
after having been affixed is Unable up to
500. FRANK G. CARPENTER.

Cards In the Army.

when our boys answered Lincoln's call
many of them were pious lads, who at
tended Sunday school and church and never
strayed from the path of rectitude." said
a Macon county Union veteran the other
day. II remember how in a short time the
Buys began to play cards and do other
things they never did at home. At the
forepart of the war, when a battle was i'm
pending the boys would throw away the
cards. Each fellow expected to be killed,
and he did not want deck Of greasy cards
to be among the relics sent back to his
folks after he was dead. But as the war
went on the boys got hardened, and in
many Of the flercest engagements toward
the close Of the war the fellows lay be-
hind breastworks calmly playing cards and
shouting derisively at the rebel gunners as
shells fell all around them"

Idea of wages i'll New Zealand He handad
me government report, from which have
deduced the following:
Farm hands with board get from SO IN

to sl75 per day. Shepherds receive from
s2JO to $3.50 per year, and shearers about
hve cents per sheep. The sheep-shearers
nave their union and regulate wages
"Masons bricklayers, pIasterers and oar
penters get from 81 to 50 per day, and plum
bers and painters about the same. Sad
oilers are paid from s175 to $3.50, shoe
makers makers from N.5o to $3.50. and watch
AS to common everyday laborers they get
from Sl2o to $2.25 per day of eight hours
engineers receive from 81 to So per day
tailors from $175 to 81 so butchers from TX
to IS per week. and compositors from s1O
to SIS per week
In dry goods stores clerks are paid from
$f-oo to so per week: grocery clerks receive
from 80 to SIS per week, and bakers about
the same. The wages vary In the diffarens
provinces of New Zealand the highest heiup
paid In the gold fields.''
The government has a minimum wage for
certain classes. According to law every
one who works in the factories must re-
celVe something. 1t Is impossible to retain
an apprentice merely for the privilege OF
iearhing trade Young people under eight
cen years of age must be paid at least 81

II they are boys, irrespective Of over time
and by the factory act, the pay for over

The labor department has it's employment
bureaus at Wellington and at 200 other

At these bureaus those who want work and
those who want workers register and the

Is so not only as to factories but as to do
nestle service and farm hands. From these
bureaus the government gets many Of its
employees for the public works and in some
cases 1t advances money to laborers to take
them to their new places of employment.
