SCHOOLS OF JAPAN.

The number Of public schools in Ja- pan is at present 27.I38, in which B. OS4, G99 children are taught by 1OS.- 360 teachers. Ninety three and twen- ty-three- hundredths per cent of all children of school age go to these schools. In 1873 29 per cent of school age children went to the public schools, in 1883 51 per cent. and in 1893 5e per cent. A rapid increase in attendance is noted after the Chinese war. The percentage of attendance of boys compared with that of girls was 40 to 5 in 1873; the difference now is only : per cent. The attendance at the various commercial and industrial schools was as follows: In 1901 36,- 900; in 1902, 95.OO0-i. e.. only EOOC less than the number in the intermedi- ate schools. The university for women held it's commencement exercises re- gently, eighty-six graduates receiving the so-called academy diploma and 132 the university diploma.-Milwaukee Sentinel

THE HEPBURN BILL
 IN REPUBLICAN CAUCUS
A Probability that the Bill Will be
 Rep'rted Next Week.

Washington, Jan. 19.-The republi- can members of the house committee on interstate and foreign commerce at wilich the Hepburn rate bill was discussed at considerable length. The bill, it is believed, will be reported to the house next week in a slightly mod flied form. Senator Deliver, of Iowa, attended the conference and joined with the republicans in reviewing the provisions of the measure.
 The caucus reached an agreement on the provisions regarding the phraseoloey to be used in defining the rate which may be fixed by the com mission. This will provide for a just, reasonable and fairly remunerative rate, which shall be the minimum that may be charged" by the carrier. This language shifts the position of the word maximum" in some way by which the republicans hope to meet tne opposition Of the democratic mem bers who held that its original posi- ton in the bill left room for ambigu- ity on the general question of the req condolences of the rates.
 Various sections relating to notices, changes of venue, etc, also were con sidered, and changes in phraseology were made. Although the probability is that the bill will be reported to the house next week, another caucus or the republican members followed by a meeting of the full committee is likely before this is done.

HOUSE CURES
 DEPARTMENTS
A Special Limitation in the Urgent
 Deficiency Bill.

Washington, Jan. 19.-Reform in matter of making deficiency apprOpri- ations agitated the house today and the entire time of the five and a quar- ter hours session was devoted to it's discussion with the exception of a short speech for free hides by Mir. Per kins of New York.
 The urgent deficiency bill was being considered under the general debate order, and MT. Littauer. of New York. who was in charge of the bill, set the pace by pointing out the failure of the legislation of last year to curb the heads of the departments in their ce- mands for deficiency supplies. He eS plained the more stringent measure recommended in the bill, and said that several requests for money had been refused by the committee.
 The one specific illustration "t the need for reform which was cited was the appropriation of g., 615 for DOT trait for Attorney General Knox, which Attorney General Moody had paid out of the contingent fund of tho department of justice and for which the bill makes provision.
 Under the new regulations this uss of the contingent fund will not be per mitted. General debate on the bill will proceed tomorrow.

THE UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT.

He ought, in the first place, to be reasonably at peace with mankind and in love with youth. He must have the gift of organizing and the qualities of leadership He ought to have been trained in the universities. not only for the sake of his own scholarship. but that he may be wholly at home in their routine and imbued with their purposes.
 He must be moved by publis spirit as distinguished from university rou- tine or mere scholarly purpose He must be q scholar. but not necessa- rily in literature .or science or moral philosophy. It is quite as we'll if it is in law or engineering or political his tory. He must be sympathetic with all learning.
 His sense or justice must be keen. his power of discrimination quick. his Judgment of men and women accurate: his patience and politeness must give no sign of tiring and the strength of his purpose to accomplish what needs to be done must endure to the very end.
 Beyond possessing sense. training outlook, experience, resistive power. decisiveness and aggressiveness, Er ought to be a forceful and graceful writer and at least an acceptable pub lie speaker. In a ward. the president of an American university is bound to be not only one of the most profound scholars, but quite as much one of the very great, all-around men of his gen eration-Andrew s.

A naturalist describes the ways In
which fishes sleep They are very
light sleepers and frequently assume
singular positions, but the most re-
markable thing Is the change of color
many Of them undergo while asleep
Usually their spots and stripes become
darker and more distinct when they
fall asleep. Occasionally the pattern
Of their coloration is entirely changed
The ordinary porgy, for instance, pre-
sents in the daytime beautiful rides
cent hues playing over its silvery sides,
but at night, on falling asleep, it takes
on dull bronze tint. and six conspicu-
Gus black bands make their appearance
pm Its sides. II 1t is suddenly awakened
by the turning up of the gas in the
aquarium, 1t Immediately resumes the
silvery color that 1t shows by daylight
The naturalist ascribes these changes
to the principle of protective colora-
ton and points out that the appear
ance of black bands and the deepening
of the spots serve to conceal the fish
from their enemies when lying amid
eelgrass and seaweeds.

Saved by n Climber.

The story Is told of how a neatly
constructed cipher saved Sir John Ire
vanion's life. This cavalier was taken
prisoner and locked up in Colchester
castle to await his execution. On the
second day of his confinement the jailer
brought him a letter, which, as far as
the warder of the castle could discover,
was merely a note of coincidence from
a friend. But the letter had been con-
cocted on a cipher to which Sir John
had clew. Every third letter after a
punctuation mark Of any kind was to
tell What he made out was this:
panel at east end OF chapel slides"
On the following evening the prisoner
begged permission to pass quiet hour
in prayer in the chapel, The request
was granted, and before the hour had
passed the panel had done Its work
and the bird had flown.
