SMALLER COLLEGES IN WEST.
Must Look More Largely in Future
for support from Individuals
fn Their own States.

Howard Freeman Doane. professor
of Greek language and literature at
Doane college, Crete, Neb.. is on a
visit to New York city. and gave out
an interview on education in the west.
Prof. Doane said: what 1 am par
ticularly interested in is the denorn-
national institution as distinguished
from the state institution in the
west. The state institutions have no
difficulty in holding their own at the
present time. but the smaller insti-
tutions are denominational. They
were started by denominatiOnal infiu-
enees, the same as the great institu-
tions in the east, and they are the
ones who find difficulty in getting
ahead on account of lack of endow-
ment.
At present, in the middle west, we
have not found enough men who are
interested in education to provide en-
dowments and buildings for the
smaller colleges. A good deal of
money for these institutions still has
to come from the east, and eastern
givers are becoming tired of furnish
ing the necessary amount for the
suitable growth of these colleges.
Started largely by eastern money,
these institutions feel that now the
states in which they are situated
ought to supply funds for the future.
Some way must be found by which
Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado
and the states west of them. in gen
eral, shall interest wealthy men with
in their borders to provide funds for
the natural growth of these institu-
tiOns"

CAN FRANCE STAND IT7
eEyaH Expenditures of That Country
Are Rapidly BuryIng Her Under
Tremendous Debt.

The naval expenditure of France
for 1902 is officially proposed to be
s62, 100000, which at first sight seems
10 be S3,10O,000 less than in 1901, but
II it is taken into account that the
cost of maintaining the marine in
fantry and artillery. amounting to
about S5,40O,0 600, has been trans
ferred from the navy to the minis
tries OF war and the colonies, ii is
found that the money that France in
tends to spend upon the navy during
1902 is in reality $500. GOO in excess
OF the naval expenses of the current
year.
1t is matter of serious consfdera-
ton for the French whether they are
not spending upon their navy more
than their national resources war
rant, says the Paris correspondent of
the New York Tribune. France has
now piled up debt involving an an
nual charge for interest of nearly
S2OO,Oo0,O00, or, in other words. every
nan, woman and child in France has
now to pay five dollars per annum for
interest on the national debt. The
army costs the country sI32. OOO. 600
year, and the total expenditure for
1902 is officially proposed to be $780,
100000. Moreover, reflections upon
the French census cause renewed IN
easiness. Last March the population
IN round numbers was IS SOC. 600. be-
ing an increase of only 100000 since
1896. and even this meager result is
mostly accounted for by Paris and
its suburbs, where the increase has
been $4,000, due principally to for
eign immigration, so that in the rest
of France the. population has been
augmented by only $4,000 during the
last FIVE years. That is to say. for
military and naval purposes the
population is. almost stationary. and
in this respect France stands alone
among the great nations of Europe.
Under these conditions NJ. Jaures.
the socialist leader and many adj
vanced thinkers among the radicals
and radical socialists, hold that il is
impossible for France TO have at the
same time a navy and army of the
first rank. simply because she has not
the resources of men and money to
maintain both.

DON'T KNOW HOW TO EAT.
Women by Ignorance I'm
This Respect.

If women realized how important to
beauty is the food they eat they
would not be so careless as they noto-
riously are as to what they consume
and the manner in which they dine,
lunch and sup. A physician of large
practice declares that drink and hurry
and worry send most men TO the in
sane asylums. but love affairs, COM
bined with lack of food, throws most
of the women off their balance. The
love affairs would have but little in
fiuence over them if they were prop
erly fed. but among the Illusions in
which girls and women indulge in is
that. as they care very little about
their food, so the lack of it cannot
have much effect upon them. They
rather despise men for being careful
10 have regular meals, whether bust
ness presses or not, and are inclined
TO vaunt their own superiority in such
respects. But if this disregard of the
natural instincts of hunger leads wom-
EN- in the same path as drink and hur-
ry and worry" lead men. and if they
are to be Inundated and hypersensi-
tiveness in love affairs. how preemi-
nently does male common sense stand
out in the matter.

HOMES FOR WORKERS
a Novel Plan to Attract Factory
Men to Their City.

Proft-sharing on a novel basis is
to be given a trial by u of the lead
ing industrial plants in Kenosha.
Wis. as the managers of the plants
have formed a cooperative associa-
ton for the purpose of bringing in
Iaborers and to make the city a
model manufacturing town. The
plan is to purchase a large tract of
land on which will be built homes for
1000 laborers. These homes viii be
sold to the men at the actual cost of
building. They will be located near
the factory district. and fitted with
all modern conveniences. In order to
encourage matrimony among the
workmen these houses win be sold
or rented. and in the latter case the
rent paid viii apply on the purchase
price of the house To further the
plan a large clearinghouse viii be
erected to accommodate several
hundred workmen, at which it viii
be possible to secure board and
rooms at low rates. One thousand
men are now needed for the factories
in Kenosha. and this unique plan has
been hit upon to draw people TO the
city.

Mrs. Hetty Green. with her hus-

Sylvia, have arrived at the old fam
lily homestead AT Bellows Falls. Vt,
for the warm months. Mrs. Green
claims Bellows Falls as her residence,
and pays taxes on personal property
TO the amount of $4,000.
Hardly had the wealthy woman
settled down to quiet country life
before the house was besieged by
newspaper men clamoring for inter

them. and grew exceedingly angry
when several tried to get snap shots
of her.
One afternoon a photographer lay
in wait behind the house, hoping to
catch her unawares when walking
in the garden. Mrs. Green spied him,
however. and before he could focus
his camera. he says. she climbed
over a high board fence, displaying
an agility which surprised him.

Amusing SLID of the Tonnue

Women are sometimes accused of
lacking a sense of humor, but a casual
slip of the tongue on Thursday while
the duke of Argyle was addressing a
drawing-room meeting at Lowther
lodge was instantly and warmly ap-
preciated.
The duke had said that after the
Boer war it would be an excellent
thing if Boer and Briton were to in
termarry.
1--WE want the Briton to marry
Boer girl" said the duke, 1but we
want him to have an English wife as
we'll"
A peal of laughter which greeted
this ambiguous declaration led the
duke TO correct himself. which. blush
ing, he did. enOeavoring to explain in
great haste what he meant. The ex-
PLANTATION intensified the merriment
1t is the joke of the season, and won't
be forgotten for a long time.

Violet growers in this vicinity are dis
turbed over the appearance in consid-
cradle numbers of a gall fly which at

the plant if its ravages are not quickly
checked, says the New York Sun. Eu-
ropean florists have for many years
