inspectors examined the carcasses OF

Chicago, Dec. 20.-Industrlal edu.

the decision of the board of education
TO establish a group of trade schools
in this city. This information comes
on the heels of the announcement of
the International Typographical
Union, which was In conference here
last week, that the nnion is planning
to establish correspondence and
technical schools in the large cities
and a travelling school of lectures,
charts and diagrams to make the
rounds of the smaller locals. This
will be the first of similar schools to
be organized by other unions. In
this work of advocating greater fa-
cilities for industrial education tie
unions have found an unexpected ally
In the shape of the National Manu-.
facturers' association, the bitter foe

growing competition of Germany.
where technical schools are directly
supported by the government, the
manufacturers and labor leaders
have agreed TO lay aside their hos

the common cause. The Chicago
school board has collected statistics
of conditions in Germany, showing
the striking results of the govern
ment's policy In that country.
Trade schools are a thing we hav4

JOE ARMITAGE IS
 FOULLY MURDERED
ROBBERY IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN THE MOTIVE FOR THE CRIME-THE VICTIM WAS ONLY IS YEARS OF AGE.

Gadsden, July 5.-(Special.) )--Joe Armi- tage, a 15 year old boy, was foully mur- dered at the Southern Steel company s plant at a late hour last night and the murderer is still at large.
 The boy was employed as trackman and about 10 o'clock he went to the blacksmith shop to rest until he was needed, work having become slack. Some time afterward a messenger was sent to awaken him but the door was fasten- ed and the messenger returned. A brother of the dead boy was sent to see if he could awaken him.
 An entrance was forced and the body was found lying on a cot with the head crushed in and nearby piece of iron about four feet long was found. It is thought that the murder was deliberate ly planned and that robbery was the motive, A75 which the boy was known to have a short time before he left work, being missing.

Elmer Pitt, Husband, Did Not Know
 Gun Was Loaded.

Decatur, July 5.-(Special )-Mrs. Elmer Pitt, bride of only few weeks, was accidentally shot yesterday with revol- yer, in the hands of her husband, at their home near Moulton, in Lawrence county.
 -t is the old story of not knowing the weapon was loaded. MT. Pitt and his wife were preparing to go to a picnic when the accident happened. Mrs. Pitt was standing in front of a dresser put ting on her hat and her husband took an old rusty revolver from the dresser drawer and was cleaning the weapon when 1t was discharged.

 Mr. and Mrs. Pitt are among the prom inent people of Lawrence county.
