Business Training.

4 young Frenahn1an who has been in
yestigating the business and social Gus
toms of this country recently told OF some
of his experiences in d newspaper inter
view His father wished him 10 learn the
American methods Of banking and he
therefore sought 10 be taken into some
business house, with view 70 getting
experience He says he found the only
basis on which he would be taken was a
saIaried basis. Apparently none OF the
men to whom he applied for work had
CONSIDERED the possibility Of taking a
man into their employment if he was not
worth salary. and as for the English
plan Of paying a premium to the en-
ployer. such thing is hardly heard of
IN this side of the water. The American
method has always been 10 refuse a man
work unless he was worth wages. and
the American laborsr's method has natur-
ally been 10 demand the wages
IN some ways the English system is
doubtless better. especially in a business
where considerable training is demanded.
To ask a business man 10 take into his
employment a boy Of sixteen, teach him
all the details Of business, and then. at
ter ne has learned them, lose him. be-
cause somebody else can afford to pay
him larger salary, - not q very profta-
bic undertaking, and it uuquestionabIy,

ploye having 70 pick up a knowledge Of
the business as best he can, because no
body has time to teach him. and there
is no profit in such schooling. IN Eng

considered to be doing the youngster &
favor which is worth money in merely
giving him a chance to get a f0othold in

pay for his business training just as ne

planning TO become q teacher. a lawyer,

SECRETARY ROOT PUZZLED.
Hysti6ed Over the Ambiguity of Z.
Recent Act of Congress.

Recent Act of Congress.
Secretary Root has before him an odd
question in connection with the organ
ization Of the Board OF Ordnance and
F'Ortihcations. The board. as now con-
stituted, is composed Of four army Of
ficers and civilian. Lieutenant General
Miles being president. Both the Secre-
tary Of War and General Miles have for
some time been Of the opinion that the
membership Of the board should be in
creased 50 as to permit a greater repre-
sentation of the artillery When Gener-
al Miles was before the Appropriations
Committee of the House during the past
session Of Congress. he urged the in
corporation in the bill. in making ap-
preparations for the Board Of Ordnance
and FortihcatiOns, Of provision for one
or two additional members, who should
be officers Of artillery.
lie explained to the committee that Sec
Rotary Root approved his recommended
ton, and accordingly the law making
appropriations for rortifcations was
adopted with the provision that .'one ad-
ditiOnaI member shall be added to the
said Board Of Ordnance and FOrtifica-
lions who shall be an artillery officer of
technical ability and experience to be
selected by the Secretary OF War
Apparently Congress overlooked this
provision when il had under consfder.t ton
the regular Army Appropriation bill
which became a law day or so later for
that contains a provision: That the Sec
rotary Of War is hereby authorized to ap-
point two additional members for The.
Board Of Ordnance and Fortifica1fous
both Of whom shall be selected from the
artillery corps" In view Of the provi-
sion for an increase in the board Secrt-
tary Root is undecided whether he shall
appoint one. two, or three additional Of
nCers- Il WAS not the intention OF the
officials Of the War Department to have
more than two additional members. but
the law clearly gives Secretary Root au-
thority TO appoint three.
II IS probable that Secretary Root viii

short time and name the officers selected

Cuba in Doubt.

As usual it is difficult 10 deduce any
very satisfactory opinion with regard to
public sentiment in Cuba from the con-
ficting reports which variously come TO
the Administration and the American
press On the whole it rather looks as If
the leaders OF the revolutionary faction
have begun to get it through their heads
that they must accept the terms of the

alternative. which IS annexation.

/ and that IS not so strange if it be true,
as generally understood. that SangUillv is
in receipt OF a salary of six thousand dol
lars a year from the Government. for
which, it is alleged. he does not perform
any tangible service
The Cubans may decide TO accept the

the matter until the next meeting Of Con
