Everything you want you will md In the
cent word.
The Republican journal., 1907-07-11

Passing one of the most elegant lew
elry stores in Boston not long ago the
writer's attention was arrested by a
silver bowl of exquisite design in one
of the windows. Upon inquiry it was
found that the artisan was pupil in an
American Board school in Ahmednagar,
India. The boys attend school half of
the day and the workshops the other
half. Finely wrought articles in brass
and copper, as we'll as silver, are finding
their way into New England and Can
ada at fair prices. Another industry in
the same school is rug weaving. One
of the largest importers of Oriental
rugs in America selected and sent to
Ahmednagar some choice patterns
which are being reproduced in most
satisfactory manner by the boys. Other
students have become excellent cabi-
net makers and turn out household
furniture of the best workmanship. A
school of Arts and Crafts for women
and girls in the city of Bombay is sup
ported by committee Of ladies in New
York City. Scholarships are sent from
America and are open to girls from
any denomination. Thus youth of both
sexes in far-off India are being trained
in Christian schools to be self-suppOrt-
ing men and women. The fruits OF
their labors< may be termed only the
by-pr0ducts of missionary effort, but
they have both moral and commercial
value.

DEATH-KNELL OF sQUARE-RIGGER.

To the dominating force of steam is
due in large measure the present pre-.
carious condition Of the American
square rugged fleet. After making her
long and gallant fight for existence, the
sailing ship has had to relinquish the
most profitable ocean routes to her
rival, and the present generation will
probably witness the complete extinc.
ton of this noble type of vessel.
There are at present but two hundred
and eighty square-r Triggers flying the
Stars and Stripes, counting ships, barks
and briggs, and scarcely week goes by
without further reduction of the
number by reason of wreck, dismant-
ling and condemnation. None have
been built during the past three years,
and builders have no orders on their
books for future construction.
OF Sewalps magnificent fleet of ships,
only a remnant remains. Along the
Boston and New York docks a trim
American ship has become almost a
curiosity. Upon the Pacific Coast,
where the last fragment of our square
rigger fleet i. making its last stand,
there is nothing in sight to bring about
lasting improvement in the situation.

MR.. CUNNINGHAM'S WILL.

Fortune Left to Mrs. Mather of KOckland
May Be Means of Determining Rights of
Consular Courts.
Several months ago there appeared
exclusively in the Courier Gazette an
article relating to the fortune bequeath-
ed to Mrs. Augusta C. Mather by her
brother, the late Henry H. Cunningham
of Belfast, coupled with an announce
ment that the will was being contested.
In this connection the following des-
patch from Washington, D. c. is of in
tereSt:
Consul General Rodgers, late of
hanghai and recently transferred to
Havana, left Washington Monday for
Havana, after having received the in
structions of the State department for
his guidance in his new duties. The
consul is proceeding under rush orders
from the department so that he has
not been able to avail himself of the
try.
incidentally the desire of Mr.. Rod
gers to carry out faithfully the wishes
of the department led him into what
promised to be serious trouble. Just
as he was about to sail from Shanghai
the consul general received a visit from
Judge Wiley of the United States
court there, who informed him that an
American lawyer in Shanghai, named
G. F. Curtis, was seeking to bring an
action against the consul general claim
ing damages of s55, 900 gold, on account
of Mr.. Rodgers action in the admins
tration of the estate of the late Henry
H. Cunningham of Belfast, Me-, who
died in Shanghai a short time ago.
Judge Wiley, it is understood, allowed
Mr.. Rodgers to depart under the i'm
preston that he would not entertain
any such action in his court. 1t was
only upon arriving in this country that
Mr.. Rodgers learned that Mr.. Curtis
had filed the complaint. He acquainted
the State department with the facts in
the case from his point of view. These
were that the Cunningham estate had
been administered by the American
consul general precisely as were all es-
tates of other Americans dying at
Shanghai and that the point made by
Mr.. Curtis was purely technical. 1t
did not in any way reflect upon the in
tegrity of the official but it denied the
right of the American consular court
to exercise the functions of court of
probate. Part of the action necessary
in such cases was the bringing of suit
in Maine in the name of Albert W.
Cunningham to have the will of H. H.
Cunningham probated there.
Acting upon Mr.. Rodgers explana-
ton, the State department has cabled
to W. Porter Boyd, American vice con-
sui general at Shanghai to accept ser
vice in this suit and the department
will press it to a conclusion, regarding
it as highly desirable that the right of
consular courts to act in probate
capacity should be conclusively estab.
lished.

GETS 3o-YEAR-OLD LETTER.

Written by 6Year Old Boy to His Father
Both Living.
Especial to The New York Times)
WASHINGTON, June n. One of the
many Incidents fraught with human in.
terest that frequently occur in the
work of the division of dead letters, de-
yeloped to-day in connection with the
package of letters which was received
from Mexico last week, the letters hav-
ing been written in this county up.
ward of thirty years ago.
Information as the receipt of these
letters was given to the press at the
time by Assistant Postmaster General
Degraw. The names of the senders
and addresses were not made public,
but mention was made of one of the
letters written in 1877, which was ad.
dressed to the Captain of a schooner
and in which was inclosed the follow.
ing note written in the familiar scraWl
of child: Dear Father: l love you
and want you to come home. l shall
be six this week. Robie."
A letter was received at the Post Of
flee Department today from Capt. 0.
w. French, Lincolnville, Me-, stating
that he had read in Boston news
paper an account of the return of the
old letters as given above; that he was
Captain of the schooner Flora Condor,
of Belfast, Me-, which was at Nina
titan, Mexico, in March and April,
1877, and had son who wrote him
notes at that time.
These facts led the writer to believe
the letter belonged to him and he would
be very glad to have it restored. In
conclusion Capt. French says: Il am
glad to be able to add that all parties, in.
Guiding the schooner, are still on deck,
theson being resident of San Francis.
CO, Cal, having passed through quake
and fire safely, and the letters will be
truly relics of bygone days."

PARASOLS


PARAsoLs.
With myriads of parasol to choose
from fashion has settled upon the
green paraSol as her prime avorite for
this summer. For general use, of
course, as there is nothing really hand
some about the green parasol. EN-
broidered linen still holds the first posi-
ton, and lace let in and embroidered in
white silk, add to its beauty and cost.
Combinations of lace and appliques, ia
bots of frilled chiffon over each rib
with lace centers, or rich hand embroid-
cry on silk, are among the elegant par
asols brought out by afternoon drives,
to say nothing of point, duchesse or
Chantilly lace covers.
AFTERNOON DRESSES.
Many foulard silks are seen on YER
andaS, in Congress Park or the main
streets, some made in jumper styles,
Others in the skirt and small blouse
Lingerie dresses in princess style are so
numerous and varied that to describe
them would be gu endless task, Prin-
cess dresses in blue, pink or white silk,
trimmed with lace, and worn by the
really young, are among the sweetest
and prettiest costumes seen here. Nets
also are very charming, some trimmed
with puffs of colored satin on skirt,
waist aud sleeves, and others are en-
broidered in colors with contrasting
colored silk beneath.
LARGE SAILOR HATS
are in great favor here, both for morn
ing or afternoon, with large bows of
ribbon or hemmed taffeta silk at the
front. A peculiar hat has immense
bows of white Brussels net, the edges
finished by straw braid, and at the cen
ter of the bow is cluster of small
flowers.
