The statistics of education show"
says Mr.. Emory, that between 5000,
600 and 100000 children entered the
schools of this country in the early
weeks of September. Of this great
army less than 100000 will enter the
colleges and institutions of higher edu-
cation. Less than $50, 900 will continue
into the high schools. The great ma
jority. numbering probably 5000, 900,
will leave school from choice or neces-
sity between the ages of ten and six,
teen. most of them at twelve to four
teen. OF these a small portion will
receive some sort of preparation for
clerkships and Office positions from
schools of stenography and business.
The others will have had no training in
the use of their hands. and will be fitted

hand as we'll as the brain. In many
places where the skilled trades are re-
presented by thousands of workmen in
large establishments the owners of
these industries are cooperating with
their employees and with local educa-
tors to solve their special problems,
either by the establishment of trade
schools or by introducing some fea-
lures Of industrial training into the
public school system. Such efforts,
however, are spordic and necessarily
local in their influence.
One cause for a movement so wide
spread and manifesting itself indie,
pendently in so many quarters is easy
to discover. ii Is to be found in an
alarming decrease in the efficiency of
labor. a falling of that, contrary to
precedent, has accompanied a rise of
wages. From every part of the coun-

question that the only means of sowing
the problem presented by the 100000
school children who are growing up
with no prospects of special Industrial
training to fit them for one of tbs
skilled trades is by the adoption of a
comprehensive system of trade educa-
ton under the cooperation of the ma
ton and the states. This is phase of
the subject that the citizens industrial
association purposes to take up with a
view to recommending a definite and
practical plan of procedure. AS this
organization is composed of practical
men, representing the body polite as
whole, it's conclusions are likely to
carry considerable weight.
At the last session of congress a
measure known as the David bill was
introduced, providing for national en-
couragement of industrial education by
STIMULATING that out of the sales of pub
lie lands the sum of ten cents an acre
be set aside for educational purposes.
Onehalf of this was to be applied to
practical education in agriculture and
one-half to trade and manual training
schools. 1t was estimated that the
revenue under this measure would
amount to $S,000,000 annually, which
would allow 100000 for Industrial
education. 1t is probable that some
such measure as the Davis bill will be-
urged upon the attention of congress
at the next session, and that the SUBJ

QUEER PETS OF ROYALTY.
They Consist of Monkeys, Lizards,

Chameleons and Even Snakes.
In an article in the Wochenblatt
Herr Kriesler calls attention to the
growing tendency among royal la
dies to harbor unconventional pets.
The kaiser, it seems, does not ap-
prove of the fashion, for he has more
than once vigorously protested
law, Princess Eitel-Friedrich's pen
chant for pet monkeys.
At Potsdam she has a model mon
key house, containing no fewer than
fourteen of these animals. One of
them escaped few weeks ago ana
wrought great havoc in the imperial
gardens before it was captured.
The Countess of Montignosco.
whose unhappy marriage to the king
of Saxony ended in her divorce, is
said to seek for consolation at hav-
ing been deprived of her children in
the possession of a number of Ameri-
can iguanas, which she feeds herself
The vegetable bill for her pets is
said to amount to one hundred marks
a week.
Another royal lady who has a weak
ness for lizards is the Duchess Vera
of Wurtemberg, but it is to chame-
Icons that she is more particularly at
tached. While still Russian grand
duchess she INDUCED in her fancy
for these curious pets, and with them
created a mild sensation at Stuff
CART when in 1877 she was married to
the late duke. According to Herr
Kriesler, the duchess is never tirel
of watching her chameleons shooting
out their tongues to a length of six
or seven inches.
Princess Hildegarde of Bavaria, a
daughter of Prince Rupprecht, re-
ceived last month as birthday pres
ent from the hereditary grand duke
of Mecklenburg- Strelitz a Persian
lynx, or caracal, which he had
brought back with him from German
east Africa. 1t is handsome
bright brown creature, with a long
tail, and although naturally fierce in
disposition it has learned to take
meat direct from the hands of it's roy
al mistress.
The cars one and only great-aunt,
the Grand Duchess Alexandra Jose
fovna of Russia, bought two pairs of
camels some years ago while on
visit to the Caucasus. According to
the Clinton, Ia, Herald she devotes
much of her time each summer to
these somewhat uncommon pets. She
has now no fewer than seventeen of
the animals, and several geological
gardens in various Russian towns
have been presented with camels bred
upon the grand duchess estate.
1t is reserved to the Baroness Won
Heldburg. the morganatic and third
wife of Duke George III. of Sake
Melnlngen, to be royal lover of
snakes. She has several of them.
and they are so tame that now and,
then she horrifies her husbands
friends by appearing at table with
one CT her reptiles coiled around her
neck. The baroness, who was born
plain Helena Franz, has (although
she is his third wife) lived happily
with her husband for no fewer tnan
tnirty-hve years.

question, there 10 no reason why the
legislature should not get down to
good work at once and give us some
wholesome legislation. At the rate

WILL INCORPORATE.
Shepherd Bros. Of Paris, to Incor.
porate Under Name Of Shep-
herd Mercantile Co.

The Shepherd Bros. of Paris,
have consolidated their interests and
incorporated under the name of the
Shepherd Mercantile Company with
a capital stock of $4,000. The
business will be under the manage
ment of Fred Shepherd, with Tracy
as book keeper. This move was
made in order to enable them TO
more successfully handle the con-
stantly increasing trade and also to
enable J. R. Shepherd, now presi-
dent of the Bear Lake stake, to
devote the time required in attend
ing to his duties as such officer.
The company will increase the
present stock Of general merchandise
and contemplates erecting an addi-
tion in the spring to their already
commodious quarters.
With the exception of 18 months
that he was away on mission, J.
r. Shepherd has been closely con-
fined in the mercantile business for
80 years, and the change will afford
him relief that he much desires.
Mr.. Shepherd started in as clerk
for the old Coop. establishment in
Paris just 30 years ago. He after
wards was manager for Woolley
Bros. store for time and then had
charge of the Paris Mercantile Co.'S.
establishment until he began busi-
ness for himself about eight years
ago.
