high schools. Hence, 1t Is quite appar. cnt that the high schools of the state are doing as effective work at other schools In preparing pupils for. admis- sion to the Sheffield Scientific school"
 The report goes on to consider the work of the students after they have entered to establish the value of the tralD'ng received in the preparatory lools In the pursuance of the college studies During the ten year period considered of little more than 700 who prepared at state high schools, 220 made the honor division at the end of the first term of freshman year. The private school record was but 67 out of a little over 800 entrants. Of the an- nual freshman prizes 32 have gone to state high school boys as against Il to Connecticut private schools. In junior honors. 97 came from high schools of this state against 27 from private and in senior honors s2 from high schools against 2l from private schools.
 The statistics further show that Con- necticut schools, both public and pri- '"NN i"N' tviic b'ttti uuiiib ttilS tel year period than schools outside the state. Of clean papers Connecticut school candidates have averaged 36. .26 per cent. against 32.59 per cent. of men prepared at schools outside the state. Tn other words" says the report, 'the Connecticut schools made somewhat better showing than the general aver age of the other schools In the aver- age number of conditions of those who failed, Connecticut schools had 2.70 while outside schools averaged 2.s0.
 Complete failures of Connecticut schools for the ten years numbered 6i and for outside schools 155. Of the lat ter the public schools gave but 39 and private ll6 and of Connecticut schools the public schools gave only 26 and private 3s. There were 733 candidates entered from Connecticut high schools in the ten years. Of these New Haven high gave 306.

HIGH SCHOOLS LEAD
Students Pass Shelf. Exams Better and Get More Honors
 Than Private Schools.
CHITTENDEN ANALYZES
Percentage of Clean Papers and High Scholarship Does Credit to
 Public Schools.

In compiling his report on the work of the year in the Sheffield Scientific school for incorporation with the re- ports of the various departments at Yale, Director Chittenden has made a considerable study along the line of the percentage of success in college attain ed by students presented by public and private preparatory schools and espe- cially those coming from either group in Connecticut. Summing up his evid- ence in regard to the high schools as compared with the private schools of Connecticut, Director Chittenden says.
 Tt is apparent tliat a mach larger percentage of students from the Con- necticut high schools maintain high scholarship rank than from the other schools of the state. How far this somewhat striking difference in schol- arship work is to be attributed to the character of the preparation and how much to other causes is difficult to de- termine It Is undoubtedly true, how ever, that the average high school student Is harder and more consci- cntious worker than the average stud- ont from the private school; fact which may be explained in several ways"
 To bear out this generalized deduc. ton here are some of the figures col. lected covering period of ten years experience of the school in each class of students. Of 733 candidates from public high schools of the state, 2S. passed their entrance examinations into Sheffield without any conditions, ( percentage of 3S74 as against per. centage of 32.S2 for the private school of the state which presented 527 candi dates of whom 173 passed clear papers The comparison goes farther. Of tn
 high school men who did not pass clea papers the average conditions per maj were 2,64 as aaglnst 2.79 for privat school mon. And the report adds Moreover, the number of complet : failures was noticcably less with tn

There was a great miXup along the roadbed of the Manufacturers railway Thursday afternoon. Trying to drive q horse and wagon across Mill river without taking to the brides a colored man, who works for the firm of Eng fish X Mersict, found to his dlscom- iture that 1t was an impossiblity. The man started out with a light business wagon to deliver some goods to the c. r. Warner Manufacturing com pany. He inquired how he could reach that company's plant and was told to turn to his left at the first street east of Mill river. The man took the Manufacturers railroad for the first street and swung his horse onto 1t. He bumped along on tho ties until he got about opposite Clay street and seeing that he was close to the plant he turned off the railroad bed and cut for the meadows. Ills horse sank In the mud and a big crowd soon gathered. The horse went up to his knees before he was finally extricated at the end of half hours hard work.
