E. II. HARRIMAN'S VIEWS ON
COLLEGE TRAINING.
Railroad Wizard Says the n. S. B.
Has Advantage in First Essen
tails of Railroading.

NEW HAVEN. Conn, January l6-t-d-
ward H. Hartman the railroad owner
and financier. has written for the Yale
Daily News his views on college training
as preparation for rairoading. He said
in part:
me- is college education an essential or
even a valuable preparation for a man
who expects Oenter rallrOadlnS. is d
hard one to answer, and my answer IL
both yes and no. y college education
will be great help if the man in going
through college has kept the foundations
of high school learning firmly fixed. ON
the other hand. if he has neglected his
handwriting and forgotten his arithmetic
i'm higher mathematics nothing could be
worse for him. If. however, he still re-
tains these essentials he has a great
advantage in that he has. a broader view
of the world and a greater knowledge OF
how to learn.
THE high school boy has the advan-
tage in that all the first essentials of good
work in railroading are at his fingers
ends For instance, take the making of
a simple statement. \ statement should
be like picture. something that can be
taken in at a glance, not jumbo or
letters and figures that must be traced
carefully out and the meaning extracted
| from the mass of superfiuous matter.
Accuracy and Clearness.
A high school boy will draw such a
statement with perfect accuracy and
clearness, while a young college graduate
will draw it in such a way that it is a
puZZlng scrawl
Thus college education is, in the begin
ming, a real disadvantage, and l have
found that in every case the high school
boy does better work than the college
man for the first few years. However, as
soon as the college man has overcome
hthese habits and has gotten back to first
principles he will go ahead much faster
| than his less educated rival. His mind
| is naturally, better developed and more
capable of graSping the fine points of the
| business On the other hand, the high
! school boy: being younger, is more adapt
able and has not in most cases the irreg-
| ular habits of the college man.
| NC matter how well educated a man
/ may be he must start in railroadnS at
/ the very bottom.
Works to Limit of Endurance.
"A railroad man has no fixed home. He
| is like naval officer. always at sea, and
moreover. he is always working to the
! limit of his endurance. 1t is the hardest
! life I know and vet one of the most
/ pleasant. 1t cultivates an insight. 1t
| teaches knowledge OF men, and i'll this
| way is the best training for any profess
| sion.
| Pull can never carry a man far In
railroading. 1t is hard work and appica-
| ton that count. Many Il man starts out
| well. but, lacking the stick-to-it spirit
| which is SO pre-eminently essential, falls
| into Obscurty.
| MY advice TO the college man expecting
| to enter railroading and hoping to have
| an easy life is-don't; but to the man who
| does not mind the hardest kind of work,
| who will not quit under early disappoint-
| ments and who wishes to have the most
| interesting sort of a career. my advice
| is by all means-dO.

COURT TRYING TO
SEE WHO'S WHO
SCHUYLER AND FRANK GOLDEN
MIX IN SUIT INVOLVING
BUILDING

Wednesday in the district court
evidence was taken before Judge
Pike in the case of Eugene Schiller
against Frank Golden and the Farm
ers and Merchants National bank,
involving dispute over the build
ing of additions to the Nevada block
in 1908. The bank was made a
party to the suit merely because it
was alleged that it owned the lots
on which the building is placed
Schiller is prosecuting the original
claim of the Northwestern Construc-
ton company, which assigned to
him its interest.
The contract originally amounted
to some $4,000, according to the
complaint, and all but some $4,000
was paid when difficulties arose.
The company filed a notice of lien
on the building and Golden dealt
directly with the sub-contractors en-
gagged in the work of adding a
fourth floor to the building.
Attorney Gibbons of Platt & Glib
bons. cross-examined Schiller in
great detail yesterday as to his
dealings, and many letters and doc
uments were offered in evidence
Attorney Price was present to rep
resent Schiller.

will be lengthy as there are many
complications that make it hard to
determine how the parties stand

Courts of Royalty.

The foreign courts are now open to that immense middle class which has been growing so remarkably during the last two decades, and which, in the opinion of many, is the highest in intellectual, artistic and literary development.
 King Edward among the most astute of men, knew what he was about when indicating an open door at the palace for the wives and daughters of men of great attachments and possessing sufficient means to assure a social position, and the bulk of the ladies attending the courts and not belonging to the aristo- cratic classes are drawn from this enor- nous and important class.
 In addition to the advantage accruing in home circles from attendance at court there is also the advantage of being privileged to attend foreign courts after the usual preliminaries.
 But Berlin, Vienna and Copenhagen are very exclusive and introductions of unimpeachable character are needed, in addition to the official information about presentation at the court
 Everything of the kind is managed through the British amoassador or min- ister of the various countries, and it is his duty to make very particular inquiries about anyone who sends in letters and wishes to attend a foreign court.

Eve Up-to-Date.

The prevailing fashions are so full of contradictions that the result, although spring styles are well under way, is a perfect tumble of types and indecisions is the note of the hour concerning the summer wardrobe.
 Close by the side of a simple model of the moyen age will be found founced skirt and pointed bodice, strict revivals of the eighteenth century modes, and to say the least it is very disconcertng.
 
 Frills will undoubtedly be much worn by ruodishes this season. Although remain ing reasonably faithful to the dictates of fashion. which says that "hplessness," Hong lines" and simplicity must en- dure. there are few who can resist the Fluffy Ruffles" effect for summer frocks. The waist line, which has caused so much talk among the fashionable cou- turieres has resolved itself into following the horizontal rather than the oblique line. This tendency is accentuated in every pos sible manner, and is certain to hold at least through the summer styles.
 
 It is hard to believe that the transition from the severe sheath skirt to the grace ful notifications that are ordained and accepted by modishes now, could have been accomplished with so little stir But 1t is true nevertheless, and everybody is decidedly grateful.
 What a difference ''traveling apparel now holds to us from what it did in former years, when just any old worn out thing that was past the age of re- spectability was good enough to wear on the train" Nowadays one sees as smart effects in frocks and chapeaux aboard ship and the cars as one would find any where, which is as it should be.

Women's Hats Save Levees.

Women's hats are doing much to save the levees along the Mississippi river in the states of Mississippi and Louisiana, is the fantastic statement made by those who know in regard to such things. And while the statement sounds almost in- credible 1t is nevertheless true. It ap- plies, however, to the fur hats of winter rather than to spring millinery.
 Muskrats, which for years have cost the state no end of trouble and thou- sands of dollars through their depreda- tions in the levees, are now most eager ly sought by the millinery trade through out the country, and hunters in Louisi- ana are hunting them in lieu of other game.
 For years the muskrats have bur rowed in the levees, and in nearly every case where there has been a crevasse along the river front the cause was traced to a muskrat hole. The state has tried several means to get rid of the pests but without success?
 During the last winter the millinery stores In New Orleans bought several hundred muskrat furs from hunters in

Living Up To Her Ideal.

A good wife alters mans character very much. often without any definite aim or intention on her part.
 When a man marries the right sort of a woman he has jealous regard for her good opinion of him. If he doesn't ex actly want to be little tin god m wheels he wants his wife to think as well of him as she can. And so, often unconsciously. he tries to live up to her conception of him. She usually thinks him bit better than he really is. He struggles to keep up to that ideal so that she shall not be disillusioned.
 He frequently has an even greater longing to be thought well of by his chill dren Every father likes to be looked up to by his sons. He will do heaps to keep their admiration and esteem.
 The bachelor who didn't care what he did because there was nobody's opinion he cared a button for makes sincere and determined efforts to be more eonscl- entious, cultured altogether better, so that he shall really be what his wife and children like to think he is.

lntennperance.

There is no doubt that women run easily into excess. They will either take no exercise and sit huddled over a fire or doubled up in a chair, or they will suddenly walk until they drop, as they expressiveiy phrase 1t. Each is bad. Ex- ercise, to do good, should be gentle and regular. Never walk when tired. So many women force themselves to walk when perhaps they are Jagged out by a hard day of domestic work or worry, or maybe from a days work in an office or shopl They come into the air dead beat and literally throw themselves along the road, with every muscle aching and the whole body dragged. Did they take an open car in spring or summer, or sit in a park or garden, or even at an open window, till rested, they would do them selves far more good. A walk should only be taken, for choice, when the body is alert and untired and the spirits are good, or at least the brain, mind and body are not heavy with fatigue.

Quarrels in the Nursery.

If the children seem to be getting into the way of continually quarrelng among themselves, do your utmost to stop it, says a clever observer It is a bad habit and one that grows rather than dimin- ishes with time.
 A generally effective way of putting an end to the recurrence of such wranglings is to separate the little folks as soon as they begin to dispute. Most children love to be together and find it great hard ship to be ant
 When child is continually cross and peevish, 1t often means that he Is out of sorts in some way-possibly he Is tired and out of gear and is cross merely be- cause he feels i'll and cannot keep his nerves under control. When this is the case take him to see a doctor who un- derstands children and their ailments. A course of medicine will sometimes work wonders and transform a cross child into a happy little mortal.

Don It's for Girls.

Don't take kindnesses for granted. Many people do, and later wonder why people have left off doing them good turns" No one likes to have ''good turns taken as a right. Don't keep all your amusing stories and pleasant ways for visitors. The home people will enjoy them, too: and unless you practice on them your delight ful manners will not sit easily on you when required.
 Don't marry a man for the sake of getting married; and if you like man who does not care for you, don't marry some one else in desperation. It Is far better to be happy single woman than an unhappy wife.
 Don't get into habit of sitting down with novel on every possible occasion. Novel reading is an excellent recreation, but it should never be allowed to monop- olize a large share of ones life, is the advice of one who knows.
