A girl seventeen years old has ac- complished the extraordinary feat ot ascending a church spire 26O feet high in the teeth of a gale of wind. A steeplejack had undertaken to ascend the sDire of All Saints. Hereford. the highest in the west of England. when Miss Elsie Heins. the daughter of one Of the church wardens, volunteered to accompany him. The&scent was made by means of a steeDlejack's cradle. In spite of the force of the wind and of the swaying of the cradle. the girl, says the steeplejack. was remarkably cool all through the periolus ascent and descent. The ascent was made on market day. and a great crowd watch ed in thrilling suspense every move ment of the swaying cradle. Traffic was entirely blocked by the crowd un- iil the girl had gained the summit and descended safe and unharmed

HIGHER PRICE
 OF IMPORTS
Steady Advance In Most
 Things Abroad
But In Many Articles of Food StuffS There Have Been Reductions.

The advance of prices noted in many articles in the domestic markets of the United States seems to be also characteristic of conditions in foreign countries. The bureau of statistics of the department of commerce and la bor publishes in its monthly summary of commerce and finance a table giv- ing the monthly average import prices Of principal articles brought into the United States. This monthly average import price is determined by taking the total quality of the article in question imported during the entire month as reported To the bureau from the various collectors of customs and dividing it into the total valuation thereof. also stated by the returns of the collectors.
 As this valuation of tie articles i'm ported is required by law 10 be the actual market value or wholesale price of such merchandise as bought and sold in usual wholesale uuanti- ties at the time of expOrtation to the United States in the principal markets "f the country whence imported" a comparison Of these stated monthly average import prices at the present time with those of earlier years seems to offer a fair opportunity of deter mining whether there has been an ad- vance in the actual market value or wholesale price" in foreign countries of the leading articles brought into the United States from abroad.
 The opportunity to determine this occurs Of course only in those articles in which both quantities and values are stated. and this is applied by the bureau of statistics to a comparatively small number. but including those which are especially important in their relation to manufacture or food sup

AMERICAN SCHOOLS Tilt
 MODEL FOR THE WORLD
Huenos Ayres, South America. Makes Urgent Request for an Exhibit from Schools of Georgia City.

Columbus. Ga. June 9.-(Special)- That America leads the world in pop u;ar education is almost a ,ruism. but occasionally there are incidents that impress anew upon the pubic mind the superiority of the public school systems of the United States above all others.
 Such an illustration has just been afforded by an urgent request from a commissioner from Buenos Ayres In the Argentine Republic. South America, for an exhibit from the public schools of this city. The exhi- bit is now being made up and in a short time will be on its way to the big city beyond the equator
 Columbus in recent years has paid great deal of attention to industrial training. erecting several large build ings as a part of the public school system where the youth of the city may be taught useful occupations. The secondary industrial school recently completed has attracted international attention in education circles. and has been the subject of comment in school journals in England as well as a top ic for newspaper and magazine dis Cussion in this country. The exhibit which Buenos Ayres desires is to be made with special reference to the manual training and other Industrial features of the school system here.
 It is regarded as singularly fortun- ate that the public schools of-this city have adopted such a broad plan of in struction. as with the great industrial development which is just beginning here there will be great need for skill ed workers and experts in almost ev- cry line of industry. Columbus is all ready a manufacturing center of note. but with the transformation of the great water-Dower at this point into nearly 100000 horse power of electric energy for the use of industrial enter Prises. which development is now in progress, the manufacturing plants will multiply still more rapidly. IL is with q full realization of this fact that the school board is emphasizing education of practical nature in its curriculum. So as to fit the growing generation. for its duties and responsibilities.
