Lots OF Money for Education.

The distribution Of money for pub
ers are to the idea that the
best way to build up the state is to
give free of charge all the schooling
that the youth wish, to and through
one Of the best universities in the land.
This institution receives $2S9,0O0 of
the tax money this year; and the nor
mails $215,O0O. A new item of ex-
penditure is 100000 for graded schools
u bonus to those that do certain
things in the way of raising stand
ards. This plan has long worked we'll
with free high schools. which this
year receive $125,00O. The levy for
common schools purposes has been
gradually increasing. In 1885 it was
$4SS, 139. During the four years prior
to 1889 it was just an even $600,OOO
In 1899 it was $625, 900, and last yer
$630,000. Next year it will be more
than doubled. This, however, is no
determined policy, but an incident of
the expanded assessment under the
new rule. 1t was foreseen in the last
legislature and an attempt made to
correct the inequality by a bill propos-
ing a maximum of $S5O,OOO. But it
failed
Milwaukee, with 15.9 of the popula-
ton of the state, of course. is the con-
Spicuous tax payer. 1t is credited
with an assessment of 1891. 795. 100.
The smallest taxpayer is Editor Peet's
Burnett county-S1, 596,1O4. The rich
county of Dane comes next with $780,
100000, due to high priced farm lands
in big county and to the high assess
ment values. 1t is somewhat surpris-
ing to find that Oshkosh's Winnebago
reports but $45,OOOOOO; Racine. $685.
100000; Lacrosse, $1S.9OOOOO, Supe-
rior's Douglas, So, ,OOO-all of them
cities of 10000 people; but these coun-
ties are either smaller or less thickly
settled. Rock county reports even a
bigger assessment than this uuartette

Procession of Ore Trains.
The Michigan peninsula, north of our
own Wisconsin, is a busy mineral
county, and it is unfortunate that it
soes not belong to us. There is
stretch of railroad track from Escan-
aba, north of Menominee, of sixty
miles in length, to the iron mines, and
a constant procession OF ore trains
The trains are made up of fifty or
SIXTY cars, each car carrying from
thirty-five to forty tons. From 70 to
l26 trains pass over the tracks daily,

By an occasional accident, such as
the terrible wreck on the Wabash
road day before yesterday, public at
eention is called to the awful respor-
sibility that rests on the men at the
throttle. the engineers on the big
passenger trains. In this case the
misleading of little order as to the
passing OF trains resulted in the loss
of about hundred lives and i'm
mense destruction of property. OF
course the whole country is shocked
al such terrible disaster, and yet
'xkeu it is considered how many
passenger trains are running on the
same tracks every day it must seem
marvellous that there are so few such
disasters. Not many of the thou
sands who travel on these fast flyers
ever think of the debt of gratitude
they owe to the individual employees
of the roads, who, though paid for
their services, deserve credit for
more than mere loyalty to their em
ployers. Most of them are genuine
heroes, men who. if the emergency
requires, are ever ready to sacrifice
their own lives to save the lives of
those temporarily entrusted to their
care

A BURSTING BOILER.



Il am one of the very few persons
who ever saw a locomotive blow up
remarked an old railroad man TO a re-
porter the other day. Generally the
men who witness the explosion OF a
steam engine are so dead when the
smoke has cleared away that they are
never able to give an account of the
disaster.
Like many other accidents, the one
l saw was the result of careiessness-
low water in the boiler-for the engine
had just come from the shops and was
in complete repair. 1t was on the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad in West yir-
GINA number of years ago. l was on
a locomotive some distance behind the
one which exploded and was looking
ahead out of the cab window, so that
the ill fated engine was Immediately
before my eyes. Suddenly | saw the
machine rise in the air. 1t seemed to me
to be about as high as the telegraph
poles beside the track. which. as you
doubtless know. are not so high as tel
egraph poles in the city. Then came a
cloud Of dense black smoke. and dust.
which hid the engine from View. and
almost simultaneously I heard the roar
of the explosion.
Both the engineer and the fireman
were killed. and the locomotive was dit
for nothing much but the scrap heap
when 1t fell to the ground The crown
sheet over the firebOx had blown out
THE strange thing about the explo-
sion was that no white steam was seen.
You know that perfectly dry steam is

ii had time to condense 1t was proba-
bly, smothered by the cloud OF smoke
and dust raised by the bursting of the

A book that caused talk from one

show in Chicago. The farmers scare

many are now breeding the improved
and modern draft horse, from Per-
cheron, Shire, Belgian or Clydesdale
sires- The demand for a heavy draft
horse in the cities Of America and Eu-
rope is steady and the prices obtained
are large. Most Of the imported stall
lions at the exhibit weighed over a
ton. There are yer 100 entries of

He does not pay to put on the market,
and the farmer who raises the heavy
draft horse, s~erviceable for work in
the cities, as well as on the farm, will
find a good market for such an animal
for many years. There is no place in
the country where horses can be raised
as cheaply as in this state. A. north

together with the fact that the horse
will almost raise himself, should draw
the attention of the large breeders OF
