PRIMITIVE
Inhabitants of st. kiIda I'm the outer
Hebrfdes Have Little Use
for Money.

The most primitive community in
the British isles is hat which inhabits
st. Kilda, in the Outer Hebrides. The
people, who number 76, have no tele-
graphic communication, and no mails
from September until May, says Stray
Stories.
They have hardly any use for mon
ey, such traffic as exists being carried
on by barter; even their rents are paid
to the landlords factor in sea-birds'
feathers; while other produce is con
signed through the same channel, and
goods are sent in exchange for it.
In a recent address to the king, the
inhabitants pointed out that it was six
months before they had heard of the
accession of George ~, while news
of the death of Queen Victoria did not
reach them for more than a month,
and then only by chance.
They have a minister, but no doctor,
and recently, when a medical man was
sent to va~ccinate them, they would not

A SEEKER AFTER MATRIMONY.

The Journal has received a letter from
a young man, now a resident Of Chicago,
who says he wishes to be married, and
asks that his wants in this line, together
with his recommendations to matrimony,
be given newspaper publicity. He says he
is nearly twenty years old, is five feet, eight
inches tall, weighs $50 pounds, is refined,
nice looking. and has a nice disposition"
Also, he says he is a New Yorker, has made
no acquaintance in Chicago, and has no
acquaintance with shady characters any
where. He says he is willing to guarantee
happiness to the right girl. his require
ments of her being simply that she shall
be refined, loving and have the traits that
go to make a LADY, He does not even
stipulate that she shall be pretty, perhaps
feeling that he can supply the necessary
pulchritude for the family. Nor does he
show a mercenary spirit, making no de-
mands as to wealth. For that matter. he
says nothing of his own financial condi-
ton, but this circumstance shows that he
is animated by sentiment and emotion. and
has a mind above beefsteak. There is, in
|dCCds SOAhO III 4 AaA fA4~AO al AHo $1,000
or ather some slight ground for suspicion.
that he is addicted to health foods or pos
sibly the no-breakfast and thin-dinner fad.
which would account for his superiority to
the grossly material things of life. This
vagueness as to dollars and cents, how
ever, would not stand in the way with the
right GIRL" and this girl can Of course
be found in Indiana. In fact, the judg-
ment OF the young man in turning his eyes
to this State Is itself a recommendation for
him. He acted wisely in fleeing from New
York. There is no doubt that he could
nave found a wife there. but the feminine
interest in matrimony in that city is rather
too strenuous and aggressive, as witness
the ten thousand unlimited guests at the
Goelet wedding. and the ingenious young
author of the Journals letter might have
been captured by an unrefned young
w-oman-perhaps OF the coal-hole push
which would have been sad. Also. he is
doing well TO pass Chicago by in his search
for a wife. Chicago is not a safe place for
| a nice man of tender years and a heart full
OF sentiment. He is necessarily too attrac-
| tive in a city where masculine sentiment is
almost an unknown quantity. and is in
danger OF being cruelty deceived by some
] designing female person who IL not sufl-

the Developments of k~igh-power fans exert
ing a lifting pressure against the atmos-
phere. Power invariably means weight Of
machinery. and weight is merely the old
force of gravity that the airship man is
fighting against. Thus we have fallen back
for the most part on the weight Of the air
for the lifting power by forcing upward a
lighter gas, and 1t takes a large amount OF
air to get much weight. and, therefore, a
large quantity of gas to pull anything up.
In all the years of invention n expert
ment we nave got no further than partial
dirigibility-when there is nc wind to
speak OF.
What will be the uses TO which it can be
applied in it's present shape? Certainly not
to the transportation OF people or merchan-
disc on any scale that is worth while.
Science may find it of some value in study
ing the upper strata Of the atmosphere, and
governments may find 1t Of value as a
means Of observation and communication
In war. These and the pleasure that may
be had from a novelty are about the extent
of the value it can have for humanity.

James NJ. Dodge. in November st. Nicholas.
1t has been well said that Time deter
mines all things" and time has evolved a
solution which. though but In it's infancy,
Is destined to grow and be the most i'm
portant development in educational lines
that the world has ever seen. i refer to the
trade schools. Locally we have some splen-
did examples-the Drexel Institute. the
Williamson Trade School. the Manual
Training School and others. But scattered
all over the country are schools OF this
character, which undoubtedly will grow
more rapidly than any educational institu-
tons of the past.
Within comparatively few years the lack
Of opportunity for proper training is maxi
ing itself manifest, and, finding the law Of
supply and demand In good working order,
registered its want. and fortunately the
method OF supply was developed. This
training Is now being given by many fnsti-
tutions in this country. in shops equipped
with the most modern tools and employing
up-to-date methods. and supervised by In
structors OF marked ability and fully i'm
bued with the Importance and far-reaching
benefits OF their calling. The instruction IS
systematic n individual, and ! feel fully
justified in saying that a month OF such
training Is Of moro value than a years
time spent by a young man in a large shop,
In which he is as likely to absosb error as
truth.
1t has been said that a thee years
course In a trade school, In which an aver
age or but a few hours q day are devoted
TO actual manual work. can in no way COM
pare with three years time spent IN actual
work In q shop. / feel that this is a popu-
lar error. In shop work a man may spend
months in repetition OF the same task, TO
no ultimate advantage to the worker. In

upon his nervous organization, n the same
way that the old lady. In chatting with her
friends, will knit fast or slow IN harmony
with tho dullness or animation Of the con-
versation. 1t is quite obviods that repeti-
tive routine work is not desirable for a
young man OF natural ambition and anti
tude. In the trade schoo he escapes rou-
tine but is instructed in the UNDERLYING
principles OF his work, and Dies enough

RESPONSIBILITY FOR PURDUE
DISASTER.

Coroner Tutewiler's verdict fixes the re-
sponsibility for the wreck Of the Purdue
special train on Chief Dispatcher Byers, at
Kankakee, but does not go quite TO the
root Of the matter. According to the YER
dict. Byers is responsible in that he failed
TO notify General Yardmaster Hicks, in
this city. of the coming OF the special train
so that Hicks could AVE cleared the tracks.
But the verdict shows there was no rule
instructing or requiring Byers to notify
Hicks-nothing but a custom. The evidence
showed that the custom was not invariable
and that the dispatcher had omitted to
notify Hicks in some previous cases. Hicks
testified that he expected TO receive such
notice and generally did. but not always.
In this case omission to comply with the
usual but not invariable custom caused
a frightful accident. AS a similar accident
might have occurred much sooner than it
did, 1t looks as IL the management, or some
person higher than the train dispatcher,
were guilty OF neglect in not having issued
a peremptory rule requiring the yardmaster
to be notified in all cases Of special trains,
without exception. In a matter involving
the lives of passengers. the sending or not
sending notice by the train dispatcher
should not have been left to a custom, the
observance of which seems to have been
discretionary with him. 1t should have
been regulated by an explicit and inflexible
rule. In this respect the coroner's verdict
leaves part of the responsibility still unlo-
Gated.
The verdict entirely exculpates the crew
of the special. upon whom the railroad
officials at first fixed the whole responsible
ity for not having their train under con-
troll. and shows that under their general
| instructions and the time schedule on which
they were running it was impossible for
them to lave the train under control. The
failure to have a rule instead Of a custom
for the guidance of the train dispatcher
indicates loose management.

PROGRESS In BALLOONING.

The airship proposition, in which the
world has been so keenly interested for SO
many years, has finally settled down to
various schemes, more or less successful,
to operate dirigible balloons or aeroplanes
of almost Insignificant lifting power. The
force OF gravity, being merely another
name for the magnetic attraction that
draws the smaller toward the larger body,
Is the main force through which the uni
verse of suns and planets is kept together,
and il is a rather large proposition for man,
with all his intellect and ingenuity. to I'M
dertake to overcome. Nature herself does
it only in the most moderate way. Fowls Of

spread of wing. and none has ever been able
TO carry the weight OF a man. Even the
strongest winds will pick up very little
weight in proportion to the wind surface
exposed. though the lateral pressure of the
wind is often tremendous.
