The effort of the school authorities to
introduce the elements of manual training
for both sexes into some of the lower
grades Of the city schools is believed to be
a movement in the right direction. The
limited and quiet experiment of the last
year has encourag ed the officers to extend
the work. The number of young people
who are idle are usually not so from
choice, but because they have not been
taught to do anything as it should be done.
Manual training means a great deal more
than the learning of mechanics and kindred
employments. Quite as important as any
other instruction which can be given is in
domestic economy. No branch of instruc-
ton can be more useful than that which
makes housekeeping the skilled occupation
it should be. 1t is said that the school ofiI
GERS nave not the funds to extend a system
which will prepare hundreds of young per-
sons for e~mployments which they cannot
obtain so well without instruction. The
schools of Indianapolis cost a great deal of
money, but none of it will afford a better
return than that expended in teaching the
young skill in the common occupations.

Over in Monte Carlo Yesterday
the great international chess tourn-
ey was to start. with America repre-
scented by the famous Harry Pills

ed on the American team by the boy
ish Napier and the questionmarlI
Marshall.
Last year the brilliant Januwsli
won the tourney while Lasker and
Pillsbury were away-but this year
the Monte Carlo tourney bids fair to
rival in interest and in quality of the
games played any former chess con-
gress. Champions from all over Eu-
rope and America will wage brain
battles DER the chcckcred field.

STA; Reggie, Italy, and there are still
others of but little less Importance.

Making Money in Prison.

\ remarkable example of cunning
has been unearthed in one of our
large prisons. \ convict had perfect
ed die, and was making silver dol
lars, and distributing them through
accomplices on the outside. Natur-
ally the officials were very much sur
prised at the discovery, but no more
so than the person who receives Il
counterfeit article in place of the
genuine. 1t is therefore very impUr-
tant when you ask for Hostetter's
Stomach Bittcrs to see that their pri-
waite stamp over the neck is unbroll-
en-, if you value your health. For 30
years the BittcrS has been recognized
as the best health maker in existence,
and if you are Il sufferer from indi-
gcstion, dyspepsia, constipation, flat
ulency or nervousness. it is because
you have never tried it,; Try ii at

MORE CONTRACTS ON
NEW HIGH SCHOOL WORK


The board of education at special
meeting last evening let>the contract
for the wiring for electric bells at the
new high school to Charles Fiebig
for the consideration of $3.50. All
bids for the installing of the light
wires and those for the power plant
to use in running the exhaust fans
for ventilation purposes in warm
weather when the heating plant is
not in operation were rejected ON ac-
count of the expense being consid-
cred too great.
There were four sets of bids in each
case. The specifications for lighting
by electricity included the entire
building, but the cost was found to
be so great that it was decided to in
struct the architect to prepare other
specifications for lighting only the
assembly hall, the gymnasium and
the furnace room. All parts of the
building are already piped for gas il
Elimination.
The pattern of steel ceilings were
selected from samples that were

NICOL REENGAGED
Veteran Ball Player to Manage
Rockford Coming
Season.
IS LINING UP A STRONG TEAM
Hnnky Hines to be Made Field Cap
tain After 9th
ers.

The directors of the Rockford base
| ball club met at the office of Prcsi-
dent liver and entered into formal
contract with Hugh Nicol to man
age the team for the season of 1902.
Mr.. Nicol expects to leave his pres
ent position with Fay, Lewis d Bros.
company i'm few days and will then
take up the work of raising funds
for the team and devote his entire
time to it. lie has already received
considerable encouragement from
the business men and il is believed "a
larger sum will be forthcoming than
last year. The club went through
the season of 1901 in good way
financially. but the subscriptions
were not turned in as early as was
desired and this handicapped the
management in signing players.
This year much earlier start is to
be made and if the funds come in
promptly there is no doubt that
Rockford will be given a first-class
aggregation.
To Hold Good Players.
The directors went over the situ-
alton carefully and agreed with Mr..
Nicol that 1902 promises to be a ban
ler year for baseball in Rockford.
70 this end every effort will be put
forward to get together a team wor-
thy of the support of the people.
The cream of last years team will
make a good foundation and the
signing of "IIunky" Hines is calcu-
lated ten strike. Hines will he
made the field captain and as he and
Me are old time friends they will
pull well together.
May Get BueIow.
Negotiations are under way to Sc
cure Charles Buelow to play third
base. 1t is not by any means certain
that the Dubuque boy can he secured,
but he thinks well of Rockford, likes
Manager Nicol and Hines, and has
evinced Il desire to join the team.
If his terms are not too high il is
quite proba BILE that Charles will COM
plete the infield at the third corner.
He has had offers from major league
teams. but he was incapacitated for
such a long time by reason of the |
i'm Jury to his knee that he feels the |
wiser course would be to start in |
with minor league team again to
get his hand in. If he follows this |
course the Rockford team is most |
likely To get him.

Physician to Visit schools.

The second recommendation of the
health commissioner. was that he he
given power tn send Il physician into
the schools at once to vaccinate at
the city's expense such children as
are not already attended to. Obiec-
tions were raised to this and il was
at last left with the other recommeu-
datiOns that followed. In the course
of his remarks on this subject DIR.
De Silva said that there were 4O2 I'M
vaccinated children attending the
public schools. most of whom plead
inability to secure the services of Il
physician rather than any opposition
to the operation on the part of their
parents. The greater part of those
needing attention. he said, live in the
east end of the city.

Favors smallpox Ambulance.

In making the third recommends
ton the doctor said that he did not
favor the further use of the city am
bulance for the conveying of small
pON patients While he was certain
in his own mind that the process of
to which it had been sub
jected on each occasion had been en-
tirely efficacious, public sentiment
did not favor its use for this purpose.
Then. too, it placed the ambulance
out of use temporarily while it was
being disinfected and if an emergency
should arise at such times there
would be nothing with which to meet
it. The buying of an old carriage to
use till the present epidemic is past
and then destroyed was urged. The
next recommendation was the equip
ping of n detention hospital some

unknown parties. The negro was
about 10 years old.
When some one attempted to use
the wires to Williamson this morning
they foun1 that the telegraph and
