Education of Labor

Organized labor has taken a distinct
step forward in the specific recognition
by the American Federation Of the value
or Industrial education. The time Is not
long past when the manual training
school and the more advanced trade
schools were viewed askance, and in
some instances openly opposed by mem
bers Of the unions. They insisted
upon the old system Of apprenticeships.
and, moreover, upon a limited number OF
apprentices, Theirs was the old fear OF
an oversupply OF skilled craftsmen. a fear
allied to the belief now shown 20 be an
economic delusion IN the arbitrary restric-
ton Of output. which found one express
sion IN opposition 10 improved machinery.
But now the Federation has approved
the declaration OF a committee. headed
by John Mitchell, that the future vel
fare OF America largely depends on the
industrial training OF our workers.
More specifically. the Federation has de-
clared in favor or associating with the
public school system classes in which
boys and girls may be taught the
principles OF the trades" The resolutions
even prescribe this course Of instruction.

When the Comet Brushes By.

Some time next May Halley's comet is
going to brush by this old earth Of ours.
and we are scheduled TO be swept from
Lake Erie to Key West by the fiery tail
thereof.
Do not be alarmed. however. gentle
reader. There is nothing at all uncom-

tail-at least. this particular comets

useful in a comets business. 1t does not
invariably trail along in the rear, as, Of
course, a well-regulated tail would ration

than not It sticks out at a sharp angle
TO the comet itself. which would appear
10 be awkward. and might interfere con-
slderably with the comets locomotion

King HHFOId's BreaStpIate.
From the London Ctronicle
In Norman and Plantagenet times 4 cor

varied. Among them was that OF keeping
his eye on any hind or citizen who sudden
~ blOssomed into wealth, and began, as
they say IN Lancashire. "spattllng hts

that he had come upon treasure trove.
And the syllogism on which the coroner
acted was. This man has been spending

Ergo. he must have found treasure. ANY

ishabie by death. the ordeal Of trial by
crowncrs quest on suspicion was doubt
less no pleasant matter. in DAYS when the
examination OF a suspected person in
volved what may be called supplementary
questioning with the aid OF mechanical
devices.
But within the last two centuries. at
any rate, prosecutions for conceallnE
treasure trove have been few and far be-
tween, and the last recorded case in Eng
land occurred forty-six years ago. While

ancient battlefield OF Hastings. William

Now the lump OF gold melted down was

story came out-aboUt as interesting a
find as English earth could cover For
II was found not far from the spot where
Harold fell. and was doubtless the gold

Increase of Suicide.

Statistics carefully compiled by the
St Louis health authorities show that
3S per cent OF the suicides in that city
are OF persons between the ages OF
twenty and forty years. Another point
brought out IS that more persons under
the age Of twenty take their own lives
than do persons who have reached the
age Of sixty.
Marriage appears 10 be neither a reason
for self-destructIon nor safeguard
against It. for the victims are almost
equally divided between the married and
the single. The quest for the real cause
must go beyond the age. social condi-
tion, and financial circumstances OF the
unfortunate ones.
Many physicians are coming to the
conclusion that insa1ity-even though OF
momentary duration-is the best explana-
tion for the growing tendency to take
ones own life. Insanity is growing men-
acingly; frequently It takes the form OF
suicidal mania, and even in persons not
suspected Of any mental arrangement It
may manifest itself under conditions that
would escape the attention Of those
about
As the social structure becomes more
complex. and the strain OF economic con-
ditions constantly grows greater, suicide
tends to increase faster that the ratio
Of population. Statistics Just made public
by Mr.. Frederick l. Hoffman. the
economist. moralist, and religionist. may
well call for contemplation. These figures
show that the rate OF suicide per hun
dred thousand OF the population in sixty
five OF our typical cities mounted from
15S per cent IN 1895, TO 1915 per cent in
1905. the gain OF 1903 over 1907 amounting
10 three per hundred thousand. while
the increase OF the population during the
samo period was only 23 per cent.
When the statistics are analyzed ac-
cording to tho sections Of the country,
the differences are suggestive, as the
following table shows:

MUZZLING THE PRESS.
Unconstitutional Suppression OF Di-

From the Hartford Coursut.
About the time that New York changed
its method OF taking the lives OF persons
sentenced 10 death. q law was passed
forbIdding publication OF the details Of
executions The best newspapers didn't
care for those details. but they resented
the attempt 20 muzzIe the press. II
wasn't difficult 10 make a test case. and
one was made. with the result that the
law was held 20 be invalid. The New
York Times believes that "a judicial rule
abridging the freedom 10 publish any
and all parts OF a divorce proceeding.
or the substance thereof. IS likewise un-
constitutional" and Il recommends that
this rule. which is now in force in New
York and not infrequently applied by
judges iC cases affecting influential per-
sons, be annUlled- Giving reasons for
this recommendation, It SAYS that "the
law should not be so administered that
the rich may have secret divorces while
the poor are practically debarred from
this privilege and that whether or
not the court in sealing the papers. ever
intends TO shield the guilty. the fact re-
mains that the guilty are shielded" The
rule should be annulled. In keeping il
the New York courts do much to war
rant the belief that all ara not equal in
the eyes Of the law.

To Prevent TubcrcuIn.i..

The Association for the Prevention OF
tuberculosis IN tho District os Columbia,
IA its FIRST annual report, makes an in
teresting statement OF ITS activities. The
president, Gen. George NJ. sternberg, pre-
sents a table showing decided reduc-
ton IN the mortality among the white
population since ISS0. and a less reduc-
tion among the colored since 1855. He
remarks: THE difference IS probably
largely due TO insanitary housing condi-
uOns. dissipation. insufficient nourish-
ment. and other factors which prevail
10 a greater extent among this class OF
the community than among the whites.
Ignorance and poverty are the most Do
tent allies Of the tubercle bacillus and

ssry 10 carry the campaign into the slums
Of the city. To educate the adults IN
this class OF the population is a dlfHcult
matter, but the children are compelled
20 attend the public schools and they
should there be taught the essential
facts with reference TO the cause. pre-
ventiOn, and cure OF this disease" He
makes a strong appeal for larger mem
bcrShip In order 20 carry on the work.
He points out that there should be no
difficulty IN securing 100 members at s.
