SEES LEVEL FOR LEARNING.
Prof. Henderson Declares Universi-
ties Must Seek to Meet Needs of
workingmen to Succeed.

Unless our universities and social
institutions work to meet the needs
Of the workingman, they are doomed
to failure and defeat, was the predic-
ton made by Prof. Charles Richmond
Henderson the other afternoon at the
University of Chicago.
"As the wage-earning class keeps on
growing stronger and stronger" the
speaker said, "it becomes more and
more a question of a life and death
struggle with learning, with art and
science, with our institutions, our uni
versities. A university cannot live sus.
pended high in air. There must be
close association between the ideals
that the university Is working for and
the practical life of the workingman.
"The wage-earner will not bear the
burden Of an advancing civilization
hung away up above him out Of hil
reach"

for the bravery he displayed on the
Merrimac. The other day another St.

her life in the Mississippi that she
might have the honor of being saved
from watery grave by Hobson. She
jumped into the river from the launch

swimming in the waters Of the big

Miss Self was unable TO swim, but
so great was her faith in the sailor

board. although dressed in her best
clothing, wearing silk waist and a
broadcloth skirt.

CUT DOWN EXPORTS.
Figures Which Show Effect of the
Drouth Of 1901.
Over a Hundred Million Bushels Less
Corn shipped During 1902 Than
During the Preceding Year
Failing on in other Exports.

1t is now practicable to determine
the effect of the drought of 1901 upon
the export trade of 1902. The treasury
bureau of statistics has just completed
its preliminary figures on the exports
OF brcadstufls and provisions and, as
they show about - per cent. of the
total exports, reasonably accurate
measurement of the eNpurtation Of
articles affected by the drought of
last year can now be made. The tables
show the exports of quantities and
value of corn and corn meal, oats and
oatmeal, wheat flour and other bread
stuirs, also live cattle, fresh beef and
other beef products as well as other
provisions, The direct and most
marked reduction of course is in corn,
which was most largely affected 10y the
drought of 1901. The expiration of
corn at the principal ports, shown by
the preliminary report of the bureau
of statistics, amounts to 26,0O0,O0O
bushels in the fiscal year ending June
30, 1902, against l16,00000O al the same
ports in the preceding year, the value
for 1902 being Sl6,G00,U00 against $751;
000,0D0 in the preceding year, Il reduc-
ton of S66,0Oo,0o0; the complete fig
urcs will probably show the total cN-
ports at about 21,0O0,OO0 bushels
against lsl,o000O0 in the preceding
year. Explorations of corn meal have
also fallen from $2,00O,OOO in 1901 to
Sl,O00,0Oo in 1909, making the total re-
duction in corn exports in round
terms, as shown by the preliminary
figures, $61,00NOO0.
But the effect of the drought upon
the export trade did not stop with
corn, though in this item it is most
largely apparent. The reduction in
the quantity of corn available for live
stock naturally increased the con
sumption of oats and, as a result, the
If n.
100000 bushels in the fiscal year 1901 to
10000. 900 bushels in 1909, and the value
from about S12,000,OO0 in 1901 to ST.
100000 in 1902, ln'oatmeal, eNporta-
tions fell from 90,0O0,000 pounds in
1901 to j90o0,O00 pounds in 1902. while
the value fell from S2,250,0OO in 1901
to a little over 81, 800, 900 in 1902. Thus
the reduction in value of the exports
of breadstutfs, clearly traceable to the
drought, was: Corn and corn meal,
S6T000,000; oats and oat meal, $S,000,-
900; total, SIS, 00o,o0O.
In addition to the above, cattle and
beef products show a falling off from
SS0,000,0O0 in 1901 to $69,OOO,O0O in
1902.

BIG PRICE FOR A PEARL.
which Was Found in the
Mississippi River.

The largest perfect pearl ever found
in the Mississippi river has been pur-
chased 10y Bunde Il Upmeyer, of Mil
Manliee- The sgetpl is nearly n perfect
sphere, three-quarters of an inch in
diameter. 1t was recently found in
the river north of Prairie du Chen, by n
pearl fisher. 1t weighs l21 grains, and
the price paid was over $4,000.
Louis w, Runde said: 1.-The forma-
tion is perfect, 1t is without blemish,
and the shade is all that could be de-
sired. 1t will eventually go to Europe
to adorn the headpiece of some mon
arch. 1t can only he used in a tiara,
headpiece or cluster. 1t might be used
as a central pearl ina necklace, but for
the fact that pearls of nearly the same
size to be used in graduating could not
be obtained. The pearl fisheries on
the Mississippi extend from Hannibal,
Mo-, to Red Wing. MINI. The fishers
average one-half ton day in hooking
shells. which are sold to button manu-
facturers. They are paid $14 a ton, and
consequently make good wages if they
never find pearl Of great size. The
shells in which these are found weigh
about four pounds"

KAISER LOOKING THIS WAY.
German Emperor Anxious to Visit
the Land That HOnored His
Brother Henry.

Emperor William may visit the
United States early next spring. The
report that he is anxious to do 50
is revived. Prince Henry having again
assured him that he would have a de-
lightful reception.
After hearing the princes accounts
of what he saw, the emperor's desire
to see the country has been greatly
stimulated. If he should go to Amer
;ca the crown prince would act as
regent in his fathers absence and
the emperor would be accompanied
by his brother Henry.
When in Wiesbaden lately Emperor
William gave to Nine. Durand, IA
nous actress, ideas on the mission of
the stage which show that he is no
admirer of Ibsen or of problem
plays. He said:
"In my opinion the stage ought to
be not only powerful factor in >edu-
cation and moral elevation, but also
offer the ideal standard of taste and
beauty. One ought to leave the the
alter not disappointed, disheartened
and oppressed by the recollection OF
gloomy pictures, but fortified, ele

the ideal which we all are striving t.
attain. Real life is already sad
enough. Anyone who, like the au.
thors of the day, perceives that his
task lies in initiating real life on the
stage is performing sad and in

INCIDENTS OF ROYAL PAIR.
King Edward Accepts Card of Ex-
hibitOr of Flower show and Queen
Has LudicrOuS Experience.

The season for outdoor events is
now at hand. The first of these was
the flower show in Temple gardens
the other day. The king and queen
were present, and one of those little
contretemps which frequently attend
visits of royalty caused considerable
amusement.
The king was inspecting a collec-
tion of box trees, clipped into all
sorts of quaint shapes of animals,
vessels and pieces of furniture, when
shabby old man, not recognizing
his majesty. came eagerly forward,
offering card with the address of
the exhibitor and Il sale catalogue.
The king, with no other sign of sur
prise than just the suspicion of G.
twinkle in his eyes, accepted the card
with the best of possible grace, ana
put it, in orthodox fashion, into the
outer breast pocket of his coat.
\ moment later the queen was
confronted by a little mrehearse,!
scene. Somehow dry twig attached
itself to the hem of her black dress
of filmy material, evidently hamper
ing her m0iesty's movements, nor
would the perverse obstacle yield To
the repeated attempts of those in at
tendance To remove il.
1t was got rid OF only by the queen
herself. who, with an amused smile,
stopped down and gradually detache /
the thing.
\ third incident, not at all in the
programme, was when, in saluting
the queen as she entered her car
rage at the end of her visit, gen
tleman, unaware of some steps, Stun
bled and performed a genuine somer-
sault at the feet of the queen.

GREAT PERIL FOR AERONAUTS
The Fatal Disaster to severe Comes
ms Warning to Other Hal
loOnists.

The death of VI. Severe has directed
attention to the danger of experiments
with aerostats. Experiments show
that the descent of a passenger from a
tram car at the moment the Severe bal
loon exploded alone prevented the
crushing of the other passengers.
The scientific committee of'the Aero
club is putting pressure on the authori-
ties to prohibit absolutely such ex-
periments within reach of towns.
The latest ballooning experiment is
proposed by Comtesse de Ia Vaux and
Caustilon de Saint Victor to realize NJ

TO TEST MONSTER GUN.
Dig sixteen-Inch Rifle Recently Com
pIcted at Wateryliet On, "

Arrangements have been made by
Gen Crozier, chief of ordnance of the
army, for the testing of the big 10
inch rifle recently completed at the
Watcryliet (N. W arsenal. This is
The largest modern rifle ever built by
this government, and the greatest in.
terest attaches to the forthcoming
trial of the gun. 1t is realized by
ordnance officers that the construc-
ton of such gun was mistake, but
there was an impression at the time
1t was authorized that there would
be an opportunity to use this type of
gun for coast defense, which could
thereby be increased in defensive and
offensive power by the adoption of
this larger rifle.
The difficulty in testing of the riff,
when it was completed was the
mount for the gun. No carriage was
built for this purpose, but Gen. Gro
zier will make use of the Gathmann
gun mount. 1t will not require much
work to convert this carriage so as
to have it served as mount for the
16-inch rifle.
Gen. Burlington, who preceded Gen.
Crozier as chief of ordnance, had
made for his own satisfaction before
he went out of office model carriage
of the disappearing type, with the
idea that it would serve as a gun car
