institutions OF Learning.

To-day. in the United states, two
sadically different plans for the support
and conduct OF higher institutions of
Scanning are in process Of development;
abe one that Of The private university,
ahe other the university supported and
controlled by the state. The first finds
ats notable examples mainly amongst
Rhe older universities OF the east. the
second in the universities of the central
and western states, writes Henry S.
Pritchett. in Atlantic. While these last
are younger. their growth has been
rapid, not only In the number of their
Instructors and students, but in facili-
hies and in income. A table which fol-
5ows, contains in condensed form GER
tain data concerning these two groups
of universities which are suggestive.
and which show how nearly comparable.
80 far as material considerations meas
ure equality. these two groups of insti-
buttons have become. The comparison
shows that In the six older universities
of the eastern states 1888 teachers are
dealing with 1s,49s students. at an an
nual cost OF little more than s5,00O,-
o0o, while in the six western state uni
versities a somewhat smaller number of
teachers is dealing with a student body
9arger by 1000, at a cost Of a little more
than 100000 The first student group
includes but few women, the second a
considerable proportion Of women. In
number Of instructors, in number of stu
dents, and in amount of annual income
the second group is rapidly gaining on
the FIRST.

HEROES ON SINKING SHIP.
Japanese Maintained Their Reputa-
ton for Bravery When the
Mikasa Sank.

A recent cablegram from London says:
The Daily Telegraph has received the
following dispatch from its correspond
ent at the Japanese naval base at Sase-
DO under date Of September 10. the mes
sage having been delayed in transmits
sion:
The burning OF the battleship Mi
kasa was attended by many heroic Incl
dents There was not one. but series
of explosions, some loud like the stimuli
taneous reports of many heavy guns,
Others dull and mufiied. Immediately
after the first of these great sheets OF
fame seemed to envelop the ship. II was
a moonlight night. added TO which all
the warships and land stations turned
searchlights upon the scene. This con-
centration OF light. together with the
glare OF the confagration, made IL pos
sible to witness many heartrending
spectacles from shore and also material
iy assisted the work Of rescue. Boats
we're lowered in all directions. The sur
vivors calamity rowed about although
they themselves were suffering from
many injuries. and succeeded in saving
numerous lives.
your correspondent could see the
work Of rescue as clearly as if it were
proceeding in daylight The water
rushed in through hole In the port side
of the ship and the Mikasa settled down.
Nearby a transport lying at anchor, said
20 be the Kaikoku Maru. was somewhat
damaged by the fire which spread out
on each side of the battleship.
Among the bodies picked up that
night were those OF Lieut.. Mamaki. three
gunners. six sailors and six engineers
belonging TO the Mikasa and eight or
ten corpses OF men from other warships.
II Is believed that AS the damage can
easily be repaired, the flagship will soon
be raised.
Baron Yamamoto, minister OF ma
rine, has made the following authorita-
tive statement.
The burning Of the Mikass is a mat
ter OF great moment Thereal cause can
not be ascertained until the ship is re-
fioated. Wild rumors in circulation that
the incident is due to discomfort in the
navy, with reference 10 the peace terms,
are as absurd as they are false. Such a
thing is impossible in disciplined navy.

assembled at my residence, and all
agreed that an accident must be the
