 | tee learned what the different trades most
 needed and what course of instruction
 would be required in each. The results
 of the investigations have been gathered into a report, in which the needs of each
 of the proposed departments are ex-
 plained.
 According to the plans there are to be
 a college, a school, and day and night
 schools for apprentices. These will give
 an opportunity for young men to obtain
 a thorough training in any of the trades
 which they may choose.

 The Carnegie Institute. which has done
 much for the education of the people of
 Pittsburg along the lines of music and
 art, has on many occasions been in re- ceipt of millions of dollars from MT. Car negie The polytechnic school is intended to follow more practical lines and to ed- ucate the young men of the country in trades. Pittsburg alone has many estab- | lishments where a high grade of skill is l required, such as glass blowing, iron
 working and the building of machinery. | The course of instruction will not only l include training in the various uechaE- l icaI processes, but the college will fur
 nish the theories and the principles on which the practical work is based. | Mir. Carnegie's benefactions extend over a period of twenty years and he has given to various institutions and cities
 more than $s0OOo.Oo0. He has contributed large sums to the maintenance of libra ries in many of the cities of the country, and only recently he gave to New York
 $5,0O0000 for library purposes He has as-
 sisted the universities of Scotland, and

 tion in this country are many. It is his object to induce others to give at the
 same time that he does, and thus he has
 been the means of placing many an in- stitution of learning upon substantial
 basis. The chief doctrine by which he
 is guided in all his works of benevolence
 is that it Is best to teach people the best
 way of helping themselves.
 For this reason Mir. Carnegie always
 has been interested in technical educa- tion. He has followed the work of trade schools all over the world. He recently contributed $300,0o0 to Cooper Union,
 which has for years been equippine young
 men and women for useful callings. | Arrangements have been made for dinner in honor of MT. Carnegie, to be given by the friends of Stevens Institute, Hoboken, upon his return to this eoun- try.

 T have as good a right to stare at
 a pretty girl as your majesty" he replied. General Largerberg Is man of econom- ical habits and is never known to have money. He allows his friends and ad- mirers to pay for his beer and cigars, and was never known to treat. One day while they were walking together King Oscar dropped his glove, which was picked up and returned to him by an old peasant woman. The King thanked her graciously and dipped into his pocket for a fiye-krone piece-worth $1.40. Turning to his companion, he said: Count lend me krone to give this old woman. I have nothing but this big coin, and l don't want to give her so much.'
 Perhaps the old woman can change l it, retortca the general
