EDWARD VII, King of England

queen.
"Were we more like her, we're our Off
cial and individual relations with for
eigners carried on with more OF her cath
olic urbanity and graciousness, who
knows but that we, too, should win
something OF the kindly regard testified
today in every foreign capitalr'
Referring to the presence of the kaiser
the Times says:
His presence is Germanys homage to
those very human feelings and sympa-
thies 30 uniformly displayed by the
queen. AS such it will be W derstood
here and be all the more houored and
appreciated because it involves u certain
lofty disregard of mere politics. AS such
we do not doubt it will be understood In
all other countries, and it will be watched
with respectful sympathy"
"The Morning Post says:
Out OF the most reverent and pro-
found respect for our sovereign we must
stand silent for the sorrow which holds
us. The love and admiration of her sub
jects are, unhappily, of no avail. Nothing
in these dark days, when sorrow is heavy
upon US, will have SO sweet an effect on

Manual Training.

The class in manual training is now an
established fact. The enrolment is 26.
Every day from to p. IN. and from :
to p. M, the busy workers may be seen
at their benches solving the real prob
lens assigned to them and bringing to
mind and body.
The full meaning OF manual training is
beginning to dawn upon the minds both
OF students and of parents. They are be-
ginning to see that no special trade is
aimed at; rather do they see that inde-
pendent activity of mind and muscle on
the simplest model is true education in
it's highest sense. The simplest block
with square corners, parallel edges and
plane surfaces is now regarded as
thing to bring out the highest powers OF
the mind, and many of the students,
even after the fifth trial, do not realize
the ideal satisfactorily.
Grow tn by manual training is neces-
sarily slow, because it is natural and
real and not forced and artificial. The
facts are, it brings out more of manhood
and womanhood per hour than almost
any other condition OF life can produce.
In order that more may receive the ben
Ats of the work, the superintendent has
reduced all expenses to one dollar per
month, emitting the student to eight
regular lessons per month and as many
more as he can find vacant tables at
other hours
We ask all the churches and societies
to take an interest in the boys and girls
OF their immediate acquaintance. We
ask the lodges and fraternal societies to
look after the boys and girls Of their
membership. We ask kindly disposed
persons" Could you invest five dollars
in better cause than giving some poor
boy or girl five months course in man
ual training ?"
Mr.. Warning, to whose untiring efforts
the success of the school is due, desires
special slass Of young women and girls
who will work together at such hours as
can be agreed upon.
The school is now in a position to do
good to the community at large, and are
prepared to receive all who apply. AS
soon as the finances warrant it, further
reduction in the cost of attendance will
be made. For further particulars apply
to w. II, Miller, superintendent.

IN GREAT LUCK.
ThS Woman's Club Receives an
, Additional Gift of $4,000
from Andrew Carnegie.

The ladies OF the &omsn's
Club are again in the very best
luck. They received the official
announcement yesterday from
Andrew Carnegie that he had
increased his gift for the erec-
ton of library in this city to
$1,000, increasing his original
gift $1,000.
Some few weeks ago, Mrs. b.
f. Jay, who has had all the mat
ter OF the correspondence with
Nj. Carnegie in hand, wrote him
that they could hardly see their
way clear to construct the char
acter of the library building
which they wished for with the
amount that he originally gave
and asking him to increase that
sum. he overlooked the cor
respondence for several weeks
ana then upon discovery OF same
wrote to the ladies at once and
said that he had informed his
treasurer that he should furnish
the additional sum.
The ladies' OF the club, and es-
pecially those who have been ac-
tive in this work, are highly
elsted over the gift of Mr.. Car
negie, as this additional sum
will permit them to do several
things in the construction of the
building which they could not
have doue with the original snm
given by Mr.. Carnegie.

tonight to arrange for an immediate hear

OF the opinion there will be little trouble
in securing the appropriation. inasmuch
as the Louisiana Purchase Worlds Fair

an unusual display at Buffalo to advertise
Missouri. The commission has been at
work since April, 1900, and already has in
storage large collections Of horticultural,
agricultural and mineral specimens, greater

pupose.
"In addition" says Secretary Iost we
are preparing new and original features
that will characterize Missouri at Buffalo
and impress its greatness permanently
upon the eastern and Latin-American mind.

content to follow the lead OF other states,
