,ne Young Men to

Would Have TAen Learn That Hustle
Spirit and the A11acity Of Ven
turesome Streak Which Makes
Americans So S1ccessfol.

The committee appointed by N.
Millerand, the French minister of
commerce, to study the organization
and operation of trusts and to look
into the foundation in this country OF
an industrial school for young
Frenchmen, has arrived At New York.
NJ. Lazare WELLER, copper manu-
facturer, ana NJ. De Ia Gotellerie, an
engineer, constitute the committee.
NJ. WELLER explained that it Was
the intention ct nis governneas :"
Great . postgraduate scnuel =. MS
country for the students of tn llgh
technical and engineering schools.
This school. which would be to fina1ce
and industry what the French school
at Athens is to the French literary
men, and what TO the fine arts is the
school Of Rome. would not be in the ma
ture of q college, with buildings, and
a corps of instructors, but would
simply be clearing house through
which the young French engineers
and economists would find employ
ment at nominal salaries, or even
without regeneration, in the va
rious great manufacturing concerns
of the United States
The French graduates would really
be apprentices in steel mills, locono-
tive works and in other large manu-
factories. ~.
I'VE are going to send our stu
dents,'' said Mr.. WELLER, where they
can learn to be observation-disclosures,
where they can absorb knowledge,
and also character, the hustle spirit
and the audacaty OF venturesome
streak that runs through you. It
is the aim of the minister of com.
merce to graft new ideas into them,
and as we send some of our brilliant
officers to follow the wars of the
world on the spot where they are be-
ing waged, so must we send some OF
our brilliant sons here to follow the
great industrial war of peace which
you are waging against the world.
The French spirit is too conser'a-
tive; we have come to realize that we
are bit sluggish, and this new
move is to develop our faith. or per-
sonal initiative so we'll developed in
you. J. shall only be here for three
months and intend to visit Chicago,
Philadelphia, Pittsburg and WASH

Ear organizations. Eventually my
knowledge of their workings, general
management and arrangements Undue
ed me to resign from all
MY experience convinces me that
not three women's clubs in New York
city are run on lines that would com
mend themselves to fair minded, right
thinking people. This may sound like
a very harsh opinion. but am con-
vinced that 1t is shared by any num-
Der OF club women. In the first place,
nearly all women's clubs are hotbeds
of scandal, and it is no news to the
public that the seeds of divorce have
been sown in such places more than
once. Correspondence is carried on
there unknown to husbands, and the
awful sorrow which sometimes comes
to contidlng girlhood was, to my own
knowledge, once begun at q luncheon
to a man friend. The supervision over
applications for membership is in many
cases of the most tlimsy character. and
in this way undesirable women find
their way into what are regarded AS
exclusive clubs. The mischief done by
such persons spreads fast and far. 1t
is in Clubs that not a few women have
contracted a love of liquor, and gam
bling is deplorably common also. OF
course, women of absolutely healthy
minds are safe from such temptations
as l have outlined, but 1t must be ad-
mitted that club life stimulates un-
healthy excitement and promotes
desire for that irrational bohemianism
out of which scandal almost inevitably
grows"

Women are always on the lookout
for burglars. says the Chicago Chron-
icle. The following story shows the
alarm which a burglar caused two wo-
men: 1--WE were both awfully afraid
of burglars, and as these gentry had
been very busy in our neghborhOod
we decided to buy revolver. Marian
did not know anything about fireal ms.
but I wasn't afraid to handle the gun,
having taken some lessons in a shoot
ing gallery. One night an hour or 50
after we had gone to bed we were
aroused to trembling speechIessness by
a creaking noise in the room. We
were each convinced that at last Mr.
Burglar had arrived, and / decide i
that now was the time to test my
skill with the revolver. In the fur
thest corner of the room we could just
distinguish a tall, dark figure stand
ing motionless, waiting until we should
be asleep, when, as we had often
heard, he would chloroform us and
ransack the place at his leisure.
Reaching cautiously under my pillow
l took out the pistol and fired twice
at the figure. Then we both jumped
out of bed, unlocked the door and ran
screaming into the hall. OF course
everyone in the building was there
in less than no time. a man wen,
into our room and turned on the light.
The dark figure IN the corner 'ras

two bullets had just ruined. The only
satisfaction J. had was that my aim
was good, but that satisfaction was
dear at $40, for Marion insisted on
sharing the expense of new coat. No,
we haven't any pistol now

her, somewhat impatiently. Your
fever left you long ago, and you have
no organic trouble, and yet you stay

You will hurt my reputation If you

ly; but on leaving the room he spoke
more seriously. She must be reused

A couple of days afterward, says the
New York Tribune, the girl was told
that she was so much better that she
was going to be moved into another
room, and despite her reluctance, the
change was made. The next day she
showed languid pleasure at her pretty
and novel surroundings, her diet was
altered, and she gradually acquired an
appetite. In a pretty new dressing
jacket she received the compliments of
