No commentary Is necessary on
the great heart of Vinits, which
has responded so nobly to the call
for aid which has come from the
stricken country OF the hills.
Words dedicated to the heroic
sacrifices Of those gentle women,
who have surrendered comfort

carry relief to those lowly Indians,
were inappropriate. The reward
Of mercy comes from a higher
source; no human commendation

Not only the great Deutsche bank,

Of the most prominent and capable
ilnanciers and business men Of mod

dent Of tho London Sketch. DR.
siemens, who was made q won" by
the emperor in 1899, died comparative
" young, shortly after the compile
tion Of his sixty-second year. As il
natural, many anecdotes are told of

tains to his activity in diplomatio
circles. In 1865 he was persuaded by
his cousin, Werner Siemcns. TO un-
dertake a mission TO Persia, partly of
a business and partly Of a diplomatic
nature. OF course, II was necessary
for him to be received in audience by
the royal house at Teheran, In ac-
cordance, too, with the customs Of
the country, II behooved the German
bank magnatc to enter the audience
chamber without shoes. This. how.
ever, he firmly and persistently re.
fused TO do, despite the remon-
strances and entreaties OF his advis.
ers. Finally, he succeeded in having
the fateful day of the audience most.

he telegraphed home to GERMANY ip
not haste for his uniform. for he was
an officer of the reserve.
In due time the uniform arrived
Then he begged for the promised
audience. In this case, he appeared

TECHNICAL TRAINING.
What Superiority Ia This Respect Has
Done for the German
Empire.

No nation in the world except the
United States has developed indus
trially more rapidly than Germany.
The empire, organized only 30 years
ago, has become a great manufacture
ing nation, has forced its way into
European, Asiatic and South Amer
lean markets against the competition
of England and the United states, and
Is fighting resolutely for new terri
tory. With the growth of strong
national sentiment there has been
astonishing progress in all the de-
partments of industry where trained
intelligence and skilled hands play an
important part, says the Chicago In
ter Ocean.
Manufacturers of the United States,
OF Great Britain and OF France have
inquired into the causes OF this rapid
progress ia Germany. They agree
that IL is due largely 20 superior tech
nical education. When the empire
was established in 1871 the general
government found ready 60 It's hand
the technical schools that had been
fostered by the several German
states. Under the policy OF the EN-.
plre all of these were encouraged, and
from them was developed a system OF
higher technical schools.
That these have accomplished a
most important work is conclusiyeiy
shown in an article by Prof. Victor
@. Anderson, published in the Sunday
Inter Ocean. These technical high
schools OF Germany grade with our
technical colleges or institutes, and
they have carried ihf lrainlag OF ths
lower schools 80 poinl ol wiiesi ap
plication.
lp the superior system % training
furnished by these technical colleges
and schools Prof Alderson finds ihs
source Of Germauy industrial power
but after all he concludes that Ia,
technical schools in the United States
while not equal to the German school
in theory, excel them on the praetica
side. The American tendency Is no
only TO master knowledge. but 20 ap
ply IL az once, and this tendency ae
