PRACTICAL EDUCATION.

The president of Chicago National
bank, addressing university gradu-
ating class, recently, declared that, in
his opinion, the public schools, presum-
ably of that region, were defective in
giving practical business training. He
outlined his idea of the proper qualifi-
cations thus:
l. To be able to write a good Iegible
hand, to make good figures, and to place
them correctly-the units below the
units, the tens below the tens, and so
on.
> To be able to add. subtract and
multiply rapidly and accurately.
). 10 be able to express yourself
clearly, briefly and dramatically in a
letter and to spell the words correctly {:
He said, also, that it was rare, in his
experience as business man, to find
young men possessing such elemental
knowledge, and the Post, of Pittsburg,
says the same is true of that city. The
banker Mr.. Forgan, added that he had
taken many youths into business, but
he could remember scarcely one who
could be relied upon to do the simple
things enumerated. Many Of them
were graduates of high schools, yet
they could not always write legibly,
figure accurately or spell correctly.
Perhaps they could write thesis on
mythology, physiology or biology, but
they had not mastered the first rudi-
ments of the business in which they
hoped to make a livelihood.

THE FATS AND LEANS. "

The great game between the fats and

not had time to collect from large
part of the Audience before the rain
started.

ERRORS In NEWSPAPERS.

We always read most of the proofs
and generally manage to catch the
greater number of errors. But the
danger period is not passed when the
proofs are read, as compositors some
times err in correcting the same. To
call for revise causes delays, and so
the paper goes to press with some mis-
take that may prove troublesome or
annoying. Recently in ali item con-
corning the birth of two twentieth CEN
tury babies a portion of a sentence
read, This will be quite distinction
for the young lady" On the proof the
word 'desulted" appeared and was
duly corrected to read "distinction. -
The paper went to press, and as
glanced over the first sheet, as always
do, | was mortified to find that the COM
positor had changed the article to read
This will he quite destruction for
the young lady" Happily but few
sheets had been run off, and the item
was corrected in the forms. Another
time, in correcting the description of a
lady's ball gown in which the gauze was
described as 'iridescent," the COM
positor got it indecent" That was
the most troublesome time of all. as
the error was not discovered until all
the papers had been run off and deliv-
ered.-Jamestown On. d. Alert.

OUR OWN STANDARD.

he was wise who wrote: "Half the
sting OF poverty or of small means is
gone when one keeps house for ones
own comfort, and not for the comment
of ones neighbors."
Deny it as we will, few of us have the
moral force to set up standard of our
own, based upon our own incomes and
our own particular home environment.
We commit the folly of regulating our
expenses by the income of someone
else. If the Browns across the street
hang up expensive lace curtains, we are
discontinued until lace curtains have
gone up at our windows, no matter how
much smaller our income may be than
that of the Browns If the Smiths put
down velvet carpet, our neat and
pretty ingram becomes an eyesore to
us. We are extremely mindful of what
our neighbors will think about many
things which ought not to concern them
in the least. We have no standards of
our own. Our dress, and even our
tables, must be regulated by the stand
ards of others. We have not the cour-
age nor the independence to be indif-
ferent to the comment of our neigh
bors. This form of moral cowardice is
causing many families to live beyond
their incomes. They can face debt and
forfeit their self-respect and honor
easier than they can face the unfayor-
able comment of their friends and
neighbors. The extent to which this
imitation of others is carried would be
ludicrOus did it not bring so much un-
happiness in its train. 1t is frequently
the direct cause of the discord and dis
content and debt which has driven
happiness from the family hearthstone.
Let us have standard of our own,
based upon our own incomes, our own
tastes, our own needs, and let us
cheerfully and bravely adhere to this
standard, needless of that dreadful
bugbear, what will the neipbhors
wallpapers Bazaar.

4 BLOODY FIGHT.

A bloody fight took place on 4 Pull
man car, on Thursday afternoon, while
! the 5:43 north-bound passenger train
was standing at the depot in Marietta,
between Chairman Tom G. Orenshaw,
Of the State Railroad Commission, and
Mr.. J. II. Kirkland, conductor of the
Pullman sleeper. The result was Mr..
Crenshaw was stabbed on the cheek
with pocket knife and also in the
back. The conductor had his face
gashed in several places by the broken
pieces of glass, he having been knocked
against window plate glass, by Cren-
shaw, SCATTERING the glass. 1t is also
said that Mr.. Crenshaw used piece of
the glass as weapon of defense, while
the conductor was using a knife. Mr..
Crenshaw is large man and the con-
ductor a good deal lighter in weight.
The origin of the difficulty is con-
flicting in the statements made.
Mr.. Crenshaw says that the conduc
tor didn't ask for his pass until he
reached Marietta and as he hesitated,
the conductor said, if you are a gentle
men, you will show me your pass, or
get off. Mr.. Crenshaw says he told the
conductor he was gentleman, and be-
fore he would show his pass to man
that would talk to him that way he
would get off, and then the conductor
called him liar and pulled his knife,
and that he then knocked him against
the window glass breaking it, which cut
the conductor face.
Another version, by gentleman on
the train is that the conductor APP
preached Mr.. Crenshaw politely and
asked him for his ticket. Mr.. Cren-
shaw replied, "Idon't travel on ticket
but pass" The conductor asked him
to show his pass. Mr.. Crenshaw re-
piled that you know me, as | travel
over this road with you two or three
times every week. The conductor
answered, II haven't been over the
road here in two weeks, and if you are
a gentleman you will show your pass
like these other gen tlemen. Mr. Cren-
shaw replied that if you say I am no
gentleman you are liar and struck
the conductor, knocking him against
the glass breaking it, The conductor
got his knife and began using it,
Both OF these versions may be far
from the actual facts as they occurred.
The Conductor, covered with blood,
was taken off the train by officers. Mr..
John II. Boston, depot agent, gave bond
for him, and Conductor Kirkland got
back on the train, and at Acworth
physician boarded the train and dressed
his wounds.
Mr.. Crenshaw got of the train at
Marietta and DR.. Nolan dressed the
wounds on his face and back.
So bloody was Mr.. Crenshaw that he
had to get a new suit of clothing. He
stayed all night with Mr.. T. w. Glover
and returned to Atlanta next morning.
Neither party to the difficulty was
seriously hurt.
