FOR INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS.
An Appeal Issued by CuIpepcr, Va,
MOmnn.

NEW YORK, March 12--An appeal for
funds to furnish means for the establish
ing of industrial schools in the Southern
States has lately been issued over the
name of Anne s, Green, at Culpeper. Va.
In the appeal is found the following ref
erence to the children Of many Southern
people.
Let the little ones not perish or be-
come base citizens with brutal instincts,
fitting them for poorhouses and peniteu-
tiaries. Many of them girls and boys,
at the early age of eight ana ten, are
being placed by their poverty stricken
parents in the mills and factories which
are springing up in the country. They
have public schools, but they do not
reach the evil or extend the helping hand
of home, hreside food, or clothing; for
the lack of these they are unable TO avail
themselves of the nations provision"

associated with a greater or less amount

to be of commercial value were those To-
Gated in Ireland. at Baux in France, and
in certain of the southern states, notably
Georgia and Alabama
The deposits now found are of large size
and occur in several districts in New

the colony, as water power is near at
hand. This item is of great importance(
as all of the aluminium of commerce Is

the development of the immense electric
force required. The largest aluminium
works in the United States-those of the
