JUDGE MILLS, of New Mexico, has
rendered judgment of $4,000 each
against the Santa Fe and G. F. & l
railroads for rebating. 1t is a gentle
reminder of what they may expect
in the future if they continue to in
dllge in such luxuries. Major
Llewellyn, United States district at.
torney for New Mexico, represented
the government, and received many
compliments for the able manner in
which he handled the cases.

A KANSAS CITY ''ice man," who
seems to be having some trouble
with the prosecuting attorney,
stated on oath that he started in the
ice business six years ago with a
capital of 5000, and that he cleared
$4,000 the first year, and now has
100000 invested in his plants and
business. He says that ice can be
made for from $1.75 to S1.85 per ton,
but he considers the selling price as
entirely too low. He says that the
only reason ice dealers do not make
more money is on account of their
extreme timidity. He is evidently
d humorist.

McGrath, one of Lordsburg's most
prominent citizens, was found dead
on the gallery of the McGrath hotel.
The body was found near the ola,
which left the impression that de-
ceased was after a drink of water,
when he was suddenly stricken dead.
Heart trouble is supposed to be the
cause of his sudden demise. He had
grown from childhood to manhood in
Lordsburg, and was widely known
and highly respected throughout the
southwest. The farther and mother of
deceased we're at their old home in

eral was therefore delayed until
today, that they might attend the
last sad rites of their son. Deceased
was nephew to Mr.. and Mrs. Mike

relatives of deceased have the SYM

School Notes.

Nellie Reynolds of Stewart
mesa has entered the eight grade
for the spring term.
The physics class presented
some interesting thesis on the
electric moter last week.
From present indications the
enrolment in the Central building
for the year will exceed four
hundred. With eight teachers to
teach them it means some hard
work.
Several of the teachers have
framed and ready to hang some
pictures which are reproductions
from the worlds masters. Such
are expensive but the teachers be
lieve that few really good pic
lures properly framed are prefer
able to many cheap ones and
have acted accordingly.
The teachers reading circle
met in regular session Monday
evening and discussions were led
by Mrs. Soper, Miss Norton, Miss
Starbuck, Miss Carter. Miss Dixon
and Mr.. Hufty. Miss Dixon
added much to the interest of the
meeting by relating some of her
experiences among the Nez Per-
ces Indians who are very much
today as they were in 1904 when
Lewis and Clark visited them.
This week new primer class
is being started and sixteen have
entered it. Every seat in the

what of them? Had no one up
to this time word on her behalf? /?
No, this author OF the pr:ncely
man said. ut is no undesirable
thing for a wife to be stupid,
whereas a wise women is more
likely to be curse in family
than a blessing" Women there
for have had no position socially
because it was considered that
they were entirely without under
standing. but today Japanese
women have the advantages of a
broad general education. Schools
corresponding to our women's
colleges of America, have been
established, and under the care of
American teachers. One school
has for its motto this proverb:
Take fast hold of instructions
let her not go, keep her tor she is
thy life"
But in the home from the
highest to the lowest, the Jap
anese woman bows down humbly
in the hall when her lord sallies
forth; waits upon him at his meals
fetches and carries for him and is
still her husbands drudge. Even
of her children she has nothing to
say in regard to their training as
they belong wholly to the father.

Western education took up its

Japanese Educatisn Before the Meija
Era.
BY LAURA II. wALTERs.

Prior to the Meiji era and until
1871 Japan was in state of or
ganized feuidalism. and from the
beginning of learning in Japan to
the present century there is no
evidence that the state interested
itself in general education, which
was left to private enterprise.
The progress OF education in
Europe during the middle ages
was similar in many respects to
that of medieval Japan. In the
latter case Buddhist temples be-
came the center of rude scho-
lasticisim while the rulers despised
or forgot the education of the
people. Buddhist priests became
the school masters of the nation.
They deserve no little credit of
seizing this opportunity. The
course of instruction was based
on Buddhist sutras, and yet for
many years these men kept the
fame of knowledge from being
extinguished. Nor were they
content merely to teach, the
priests themselves created liter
ature concerning whose merit
scholars may now differ, bu,
which was the best produced in
Japan in the sixteenth century.
Buddhism had indelibly stamped
itself on the language as we'll as
the literature of Japan.
The phraseology of the Japa.
nese people was influenced by the
sutras somewhat as our language
has been influenced by the bible.

tury Confucianism began its silent

PROSPECTS GOOD FOR FRISCO.

New York, June 2.-The World to-
day says:
According to officials of the rail-
roads centering in New York there
are enough former residents OF San
Francisco in town now to establish
a big branch of the order of Native
Sons of the Golden West. The esti-
mates of the number of Californians
who have come to New York to live
during the last four weeks range
from 5000 to 10000.
The freight officials of the railways
report that miles and miles OF freight
cars loaded with the household goods
of these persons are crawling east
ward between Chicago and the Pa
cific coast.
Agents of fiat properties. partic-
ularly ON the upper west side OF town
and in Brooklyn. report greater
demand for suitable apartments than
ever before at this time of year.
They say the demand comes from
former San Francisco citizens.
The majority of the Californians
are of the more prosperous classes
who have determined to live here
after in the eastern metropolis. Most
of them are equipped with sufficient
means to carry them along for sew
eral months. The relif organizations
say they have not received any ap-
plications for help from any persons
claiming to have come here recently
from San Francisco.
Some of the large merchants say,
however, they have been applied to
for work by great many men who
gave up San Francisco homes.
