Specialization.

How elaborate should be the educa- tional foundation of the boy or young man and at what age should it be fin fnshed and ready for the superstruct- ure2 This double question was the subject of a discussion yesterday in a public office between a young man and an attorney to whom the former had gone for advice.
 The solution now is not such as would have been arrived at even so late as a quarter of a century ago. The age of specialization has come It would be better to say that a rec ognition of it has come, for since the earliest times there has been speciali- zation, otherwise there would have been no eminent surgeons, architects, painters, sculptors. and others in whom mental ability and manual skill were joined. The present age has ere ated a demand for specialists in a great variety of lines. Now, whoever reaches the topmost round of the lad der is a specialist and we may say that specialists are mOnOpOlizing the way up the ladder.
 If too much time is spent in a gen eraI education, enough will not be left for special training and the value of a classical education has been Q mOOted question for years. The argument in favor of it has been that it develops q mental temperament which enables one more easily to solve later life prob lems, though they may be remote from ancient languages, deeper philosophy, or the higher mathematics.
 But it is recognized in colleges and universities that there are many lines of latter day profitable specialization that are entirely beyond the influence of classical training. There is nothing Ia the intricate old college curriculum which would make a better electrical or sanitary engineer. A college gradu- ate entering upon either of these or one of many other professions would find that he had accumulated a great deal of waste matter, so far at least as his life work is concerned, at a wO- 'Ful loss of time. The average age of the college graduate is twenty-five years. At that age, at the foot of the ladder of life, he finds the high school boy who has a technical education, several rounds above him.
 To one about to enter one of the so- called learned professions, a classical training is as advantageous as il ever was, but the learned professions are not now as they once were, the principal avenues to financial success
 We would not decry the college sys- tenn. though it will never again occupy relatively the important place it has occupied in training youth. Nor would We indorse it for the reason given by one of the characters in George Ade's play, "The College Widow who pro- nounces colleges to be useful institu- tions. because they keep a great many Tight weights out of the failroad business.

Vice-President GiHett, of the Mutual Life, testified yesterday before the in surance investigating committee that his company had contributed s4O,O0O to the Republican national campaign fund in 1904 and S45.00O in 1900 and 1896. MT. GiIIett believed, as did Pres ident Mccall, of the New York Life. that these contributions were justified by the menace to the poicyhoIders contained in the democratic national platforms of those years. The insur- ance managers, with a large majority of the voters of the United States, had a proper appreciation of the gravity of the situation, for in the event of democratic success the policy holders no doubt would have lost many times the amount of the contributions. But the general opinion must be that the companies having assumed a, protect

One night some years ago when the writer was crossing the San Carlos reservation it occurred to him that Apache music needed supervision and he has since wondered that the fare of the Indians, should have neg lected its duty in this respect. While it is about it, the department of the interior should extend the supervision over merry-go- o-rOund music.

CONSlDERATE ACTION
Mexican Government Win Permit Re-
 mOval Of Body of 5. L. Riley.

Word was received at the governors office yesterday. that permission had been granted by Mexican government for the removal of the body of $. L. Riley from Mexico to the United States. This is very considerate ac- tion on the part of Mexico for under the laws of that country body cannot be moved until five years after death. There wer unusually good reasons, however. why the Mexican government should make an exception in this case.
 In the first place MT. Riley, who lived in Douglas with his wife and two sons. went to Mexico for only a brief visit. expecting to secure an option on a mine He dropped out of sight and only a couple of weeks ago his body was found by a roadside camp between Moctezuma and Sahuaripa. He had evidently been murdered, presumably for money as he had a couple of hum dred dollars in Mexican money when last seen alive. It was apparent when the body was found that the man had been dead about two weeks, but the body was identified by papers found upon it. Beside the sentimental req sons Mir Riley was insured in the A. O. U. W. lodge of Prescott where he formerly resided and it is said also had some other insurance. It is desir- able to bring the body to Douglas to thoroughly establish identification that his insurance may be collected.
 Governor Kibbey has given Captain Thomas Rynning of the rangers, per mission to absent himself from the ter ritory long enough to head a party that will journey into Sonora after the body of NJ. Riley.

WILL DECIDE TYPE OF CANAL.

Consulting Boar In Panama Canal
Work Gathers at Washington.
Whether the Panama Canal shall
climb over the intervening hills by
means Of locks, or whether 1t shall be
cut through at the sea level will be
decided by the consulting board, com
posed Of some of the best known en-
gtneers In America and Europe, which
began its sessions In Washington the
other day. a
This question, n ce thought to have
been settled In favor OF the canal with
locks, has come up as a result Of tho
preliminary work on the isthmus, and
many Of the engineers engaged think
a sea level canal entirely feasible.
President Roosevelt, therefore, decid-
ed to have the commission go into the
matter exhaustively, and 1t is proba-
bic that the engineers will go to Pana-
ma after considering all the evidence
at hand in this country.
The personnel Of the board created
by the executive order of June 1 In
cludes the following men:
General George w. Davis, Alfred No
BILE, William Barclay Parson, William
H. Burr, General Henry l.. Abbott,
Frederick p. Stearns, Joseph Ripley,
1sham Randolph, all American engineers.
Henry Hunter, nominated by the Brit
ish government
Eugene Tincauser, nominated by the
German government.
NJ. Guerard, nominated by the French
government.
NJ. Quellenez, consulting engineer,
Suez Canal.
J. w. Welcker, nominated by the gov
of the Netherlands.
Probably before anything Of import
ance Is done the board will visit the
isthmus to review the work already
accomplished and the local conditions.
Most Of the consulting engineers are
entirely n~oncommittal upon the type Of
canal which the board will select, pre-
ferring to wait until after they have
been over the ground and become thor
oughly conversant with the formation
and the obstacles to be overcome.
Under the executive order Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt the members Of the
board will receive $1,000 each upon

An impression prevails re-
garding the reasons for running presi-
dents specials" The popular idea is
Is that railroads desire to cater to the
federal administration by operating the
Presidents trains as Specials" while as
q matter of fact the real reason Is q
business one. Explaining this business
reason, General Passenger Agent Lynch
of the Big Four road said: THE rail-
roads of the country do not carry the
President Of the United States in a spe-
cial train over the country for fun, for
glory or for advertising purposes, but
because the chief executive may not be
carried on a regular train. l don't mean
that there Is any rule against allowing
him on regular trains or any fear Of
dynamite or other accident that would
not overtake a special, but for the rea-
son that his use of a regularly scheduled
train would handicap the general opera
ton Of the road and work a hardship
on the travelling public; that Is, that no
regular train could possibly adhere any
where near to It's schedule were the Pres
ident Of the United States aboard it"
The experiments made with wireless
telegraphy on engines running over the
tracks of the Chicago and Alton have
proved so successful that the Alton man
agement has taken steps to equip all the
c%ompany's engines with the apparatus.
The equipment Is being manufactured in
the Alton shops at Bloomington. I'm
der the new system adopted each engine
carrying it's own wireless signal appar-
atus constitutes the center of a movable
block travelling with the train. Near the
engineer in the cab is an indicator which
keeps him informed every moment Of the
conditions within the block of which he
is the constant center. If a train ap-
proaches within two miles to the rear a
green light shows on the indicator and a
warning bell calls his attention. If the
and the bell rings. These signals are
reciprocal, and the engineers on both
trains receive the warnings at the same
instant.
The interstate m commission Is
about to take steps to require oil rail-
roads to increase the minimum percent
age of air brakes used on freight trains
to as great an extent as conditions of
equipment will permit. Recent acct
dents involving loss Of life and property,
caused by the "buckling" Of freight
trains, have demonstrated that they are
not under the control Of the engineer, as
required by law. AS the impact which
causes '~'buckling" is due to the presence
Of unbraked cars In the rear Of the
train, 1t appears that such accidents may
be obviated by requiring o number of
cars In trains greater than the so per
cent now required by law to have their
brakes operated by the engineer.
Contracts have been let by the New
York Central for nearly all the electrical
work in connection with Its new termi-
nails in New York City and the electrih-
cation Of It's suburban system into and
out of that city.
