DIR. Hall Says Too Much of It Units
Them for Motherhood.
President G. Stanley Hall of Clark
University caused a sensation before the
council Of education in Detroit by de-
clarins that higher education untitled
young women Cor wifehood and mother
hood. Another statement that stirred
his auditors was that boys should be al
lowed to use slang freely. On tile higher
education of women DIR. Hall said:
do not misunderstood me I consider
woman fully as broad and as worthy Of
cultivation Of the highest kind as man.
She is broader in spirit and more in touch
with the human race as a whole.
ut may even be that woman, like the
female in many other species, is becom.
ing stronger and more numerous; forcing
man to the puny. insignificant animal
that is seen in lower species in the male,
but the woman Of higher education, as it
is given at present, will not become the
mother of the future race"
This doctrine met hot opposition from
Col. f. w. Parker Of Chicago. Col.
Parker said:
'The day may come when this idea Of
education will go into effect. 1 don't
know when, but l do know, thank heay-
zen, that before that day I shall be dead
and gone.
II have seen something of this foreign
idea Of the education of l have
been at an affair in Germany where the
men gathered in one part of the room to
talk philosophy and the women in an.
other to talk like silly geese. L prefer

Interesting Figures.
The foreign market section Of the Agri-
cultural Department has compiled statis-
tics showing the distribution of the agri-
cultural exports Of the United States for
the years from 1895 to 1900. The re-
port shows that there were a dozen coun-
tries in 1900 to each of which the United
States exported over $10,OOO,Q00 worth
of domestic farm produce. The United
Kingdom purchased $4OS, 100000 and
Germany $134,OOO,OOO worth. The agri-
cultural exports to the United Kingdom
were the largest ON record excepting
those of the extraordinary year of 1893,
when a value of $430,O0O,O00 was attain
ed. In trade with Germany the exports
for 1900 were decidedly in excess Of my
previously reported, and show an in-
crease Of nearly 100 per cent in the five
years. period. r.
Next in order to the above named
countries in 1900 were the following:
The Netherlands. $50, 100000, these fig
ures being exceeded only in 1890 by less
than $1,O0O,OO0; France, 5000, 600;
Belgium, $685. 1000. as against $31,-
000,OO in 1896 to France and $1S,OOO,-
600 to Belgium during the same year;
Italy. $24,O0O,OOO; Canada. $21. 200, 600;
Japan, over SIS, 100000; Denmark, near
~ $15,O0O,O0O:' Cuba, $14,OOO,OOO, us
against 100000 in 1896; Spain, &c..
100000, as against a trife less than
$10,OO0,OOO in 1896; British Africa, $1O,-
100000.
Exports ranging in value from So
$4,000 down went to more than a dozen
other different countries,
The total exports of domestic farm
produce to Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii.
and the Philippine Islands in 1900 had
an aggregate value of over $2O,OOO.O 600,
as compared with only $6,2OO,OOO in
1896.
South America was the only contingent
to which United, States agricultural ex-
ports for the last five years show a de-
cline-from S11,236,CO0 in 1898 to So
$4,000 in 1900. The most striking gain
was in IL exports to Asia, rising from
$5,735,OO0 in 1896 to nearly 500, 600, COO
in 1900. The principal part Of Ameri-
can agricultural exports in 1900 found a
market in Europe, sales to European
countries having IN aggregate value of
$739.OOO,OOO.
With the exception of the phenomenal
year 1898, when they reached $7G2, OOO.-
600. these figures are the largest on rec
ord. In 1896 they were $500, 600, 900.

Mrs. Ida Bonine has been indicted in
Washington for the murder of James Sey.
mour Ayles, the young medical student:
The indictment was something of a sur.
prise. The police have been unable to
break the confession of Mrs. Bonnie, in
which she declared she killed Ayres in
her own defense, and it was generally
believed she would never be tried on the
charge of first degree murder. There is
practically nothing against her except
her own story, inc it is not believed that
that will convict her. Ayres was killed
at the Kenmore Hotel, in his room. A
woman was seen to leave his room by the
fire escape, and enter another room in
the building. Mrs. BONNIE says she was
called by Ayres, who said he was sick.
and as soon as she entered the room he
locked the door and attacked her. He
was killed with his own pistol. Above
are shown two pictures of Mrs. Bonnie,
one taken when she took first prize in a
beauty contest in Columbus, Ohio, the
other taken since she has been in Jail
in Washington.

In proportion to it's size the United
States military establishment is the most
expensive in the world. According to the
official notes Of military interest prepar-
ed by Lieut.. Col. Simpson it is shown
that the cost of maintaining one soldier
in the American army for one year is
S1.1O4. The nearest approach to this is
Germany with $2O1, while Russia pays
less than any other government with
S155 for each man. A comparative state
mcnt is made which shows the effective
ness of the different armies, the cost of
maintaining them for IL year, and the
cost of one soldier for the same period.
