BIG ALIEN EXODUS.
Sons of SUNNY Italv Hit the Long
Trail in Droves.

NEW YORK, November BY far the
greatest winter exodus ever known OF
aliens from these shores is now in prog
ress. Every vessel sailing to Mediter-
ranean ports during the past two weeks
has carried third-Class passengers TO its
full capacity, and those scheduled to sail
between now and Christmas already are
fully booked. with many th0usa nds of
would-be ticket purchasers left witho..
means of transportation.
Including the first week in November,
al which time the annual exodus Of la
horers is supposed to be just beginning,
1o2, ,672 more thrd-class passengers had
left this port during 1901 than during the
same period of 1905. the excess Of second
class and trst-class was 14252 and 6. 100
respectively.
Steamship men who have studied the
steerage movement-especially with re-
gard to The day laborers Of ftaly-state
that it Is larger and more persistent to
the eastward this year than ever before.
and from this they argue that large
percentage of the VOyagers, SC crnting A
let-up in Industrial activity and with an
eXaggera ted idea Of the pres mt financial
stress, have no intention Of returning in
the spring. The returning ernigrants Will
spread the news TO all parts Of Europe,
with the result that the number of able
bodied men seeking profitable employment
in this country next spring Will be les
sened materially.

MANY EDENLESS ADAMS.
Canal Employees Yearn for the Com
forts of Home.

NEW YORK, November 13.-Any wom-
an who wants to get married has only
to go to Panama. according to Miss Helen
Varick Boswell who recently returned
from that land of matrimonial oppor-
tunities, after having organized. on behalf
Of the Secretary of War. a canal zone
federation of women's clubs.
You may not think it" Miss Boswell
said in talking at the Womens Republican
Club at Delmonico's yesterday. but no
woman need remain unmarried in Pan
ANA. The activities of Cupid on the
isthmus are tremendous. There are
scores of lonely bachelors all longing,
no doubt. for the comforts Of home.
and so the place is a great matrimonial
market"
Miss Boswell also gave some other in
taresting glimpses of unofficial life at
Panama. OF the class distinctions she
said:
There are the official ladies and ths
clerical ladies and the steam shovel ladies'
The clerical ladies don't care to know
the steam shovel ladies. and the official
ladies feel that their position Is much
superior TO that of the clerical ladies'
That is why it needed an outsider to
organize the women into clubs There
were women on the sthnus who could
have done the work just as we'll as did.
but they could not innocently mix with ali
classes and appear not to know that they
existed"

Recently suspicion was directed toward
HanZe, who had a room in New York
city in West 23d street. and who was also
spending some time at Suffern. When
taken into custody there were found in
mis- possession three sets of fine steel dies
tor half dollars, eighty blank planchetts

Two finished coins and large number OF
tools. Search of his room In New York
disclosed two and one-half sets of steel
dies for the standard dollars
Up to two months ago HanZa was a res

ascertained that for many months he
maintained a counterfeiting plant upon
the south slope of Mount Tamalpais. H.

and passing Of the coins. which mini

Wilkie states that the arrest Of Hanze

Another successful silversmith ma amed
Ansa!oni, who was also making all-slver
counterfeits, was arrested in New York
and sent to the penitentiary some months
go. After the arrest of Angeoni the re-
ceipts of all-silver counterfeits at the
New York subtreasury dropped from
$40 or 500 a week to less than S. and
with the arrest of Hanze It is expected
hat the subtreasury at that point will be
absolutely clean so far as this class of
cUunterfeits IS concerned.

PROPOSED SCHOOL LAW.
Prof. Chancellor Answers Questions
Propounded by Teachers.

Supt. William E. Chancellor of the pub
lie schools was put through a period of
quizzing by members Of the High School
Teachers Association yesterday after
noon in the Public Library on the sub
Ject of the new school law proposed by
him. He first addressed the regular meet
ing of the organization and then sub
mttted TO questioning. The questions
all about the new salary schedule which
he has proposed.
Three features of the schedule were re-
sponsble for most Of the discussion One
teacher declared it would work out so
Of only s15 year and another who had
taught but q few days longer would get
500 year increase the first year. DR..
Chancellor said that was perfectly true
but insisted that he had done the best
he could and in the end the plan would
work no injustice to anybody.
Was 1t true, one teacher wanted to know,
that if she should be absent the first three
days of the fall term she would lose
the first twelfth Of her yearly salary.
or about S33 q day? 1t certainly was
true, said the superintendent. This was
the way the government did business in
many offices, he declared. and besides it
would put premium on the early return
from the summer vacation.
Let us suppose that a teacher dies in
May-the 25th-and another is appointed
to fill the vacancy right away; what will
happen them asked another. who was
seeking more light on the proposition to
pay two months salary at once at the
close of the school term In June.
The new teacher will get the two
months salary in June" said the super
intendent
These features of the bill seemed to be
devoid Of equity to sew raj of the teachers
who expressed their views, but although
the superintendent said such was GER
tainly the case to begin with still he
held It would be all right some day.
DR.. Chancellor explained how he knew
the plan proposed by him would be more
economical than the present one. He
said he had devised a salary schedule in
which the increases would be balanced
by the reductions, which latter would af-
feet no one already In the system. He
was confident he had done this correctly.
he said because he had done something
like it before in Paterson, n. j., with
success, and besides he knew good deal
about finance from having been bank
clerk once upon a time and having also
studied the subject in Europe.

Z. NJ. C. A. FOR CRIPPLE CREEK,
Famous Mining Town Needs Influ-
ences of the Great Organiza-
tion-Success at
Telluride.

The efforts of the state committee
of the Y. NJ. c. A. to raise a fund of
$4,000 with which to establish a
branch of the Association at Cripple
Creek deserves a far more complete
and immediate success than they are
likely to meet. We do not mean this
as prediction of failure-far from
it, for the Y. NJ. C. A. has way of
proving the truth of the aphorism
that "he is trice armed who hath his
quarrel just" When it starts out to
raise money for It's never-ending bat
tie for the welfare of young men 1t
usually gets at least enough to carry
on the fight until more can be had
The Association is increasing rapidly
both In total membership and in the
number of Its branches, and there are
few cities or large towns left in the
country where 1t has not established
its beneficient work.
The Cripple Creek District needs 4
Y. NJ. c. A, and 1t needs one badly
There are plenty of saloons and other
low resorts, but no places where a
man or boy can find recreation under
the influences morally and physically
healthful. II he wants to drink and
carouse, the saloon welcomes him, but
tice gymnastics under good influences
there is no other place for them to
population of the district is made up
mostly of workingmen and their fam
lilies, most of the men being miners,
and veery large proportion of these
men care nothing for the saloon, or
at any rate frequent 1t only because
there is no thohe place for them to
spend their spare time
These conditions have given rise to
a strong demand for the establish
ment of a Y. NJ @. A. The plan pro-
posed is to acquire a building which
will be fitted up with domritories,
reading and writing rooms, cafe. gym
nasium, swimming pool etc. where
men and boys may go at any hour and
find pleasant, healthful diversion.
That such place would be an ines
Unable boon to the entire district
is quite generally recognized, especial
ly to the mine managers to whose at
tention the plan has been called. The
manager of one of the largest mines
was so impressed with the Importance
of Y. NJ. G. A. as a good influence
for his men that he made personal
subscription of $500 to the fund, and
1t is likely that his example will be
followed by the heads of most of the
other mines during the coming week
when the canvass Will be In full force
A few months ago a branch OF the
Y. NJ. C. A. was established at Tellu-
ride, and is now one of the most sue
cessful In the state. The same need
exists at Cripple Creek. and even
though 1t Will be hard to raise $780,
900 required, 1t is certain that the re-
suits to be obtained will fully justify
the money and labor expended Col
