those whom he employed in couneXion with
this school was Moral, the perpetrator OF
the bomb outrage in MadrId on the day OF
the Kings wedding. The conneXiOn be-
tween the two men which was establish
ed by Morals papers naturally led to Fer
rer's arrest. and he was detained III PRISON
for upwards of a year. At the end OF that
time he was set ut liberty, the investigation
Of the police having failed to prove that he
had any share in the attempted assassination.
His imprisonment Mt that time gave rise
to a considerable agitation in the Press on
the part OF his friends, especially in France,
and Senior Ferrer's name thus became fam
iliar to the public. Accordingly, when on
September l it was announced that the
director of the Modern School had been
again arrested, on the charge OF completely
III, or rather Of being the prime mover and
organizer of, the Barcelona riots, much m
terest and attention were Immediately eXclt-
ed; and q vigorous campaign IN his favour was
begun in Paris, with which NJ. Anatole France
]energetically associated himself. 1t has been
maintained throughout by Senior Ferrer's
advocates that his only crime was that OF
opposition to the clerical influences by which
Spanish politics are dominated, and which
recognized in the anti-clerical teaching OF
the MODERN OCuOOI duu 1S OIouOOt9 q
dangerous menace to their ~ascendaucy.
Senior Lerroux, the Republican Deputy
for Barcelona, who is tAe leading spirit IN
that city, and who is at present in England
awaiting the opening OF the Cortes, which
will enable him to return to Spain without
danger of arrest, states that Ferrer's ac-
tivity in intoxicating anti-clerical notions
into the minds Of the pupils educat-
ed in the lay schools has aroused
even bitterer animosity than his "
revolutionary activity in 5he political sphere.
The number of pupils educated in the schools
directly or indirectly associated with the Es-
cuela Moderna is stated to be about 1000
and no attempt is made to deny the charge
of anti-c erjcal teaching. On the other hand,
however, it is maintained that the teaching
in the clerical schools is so imperfect and
reaches such 81 small fraction of the people
upwards Of 70 per cent, Of the Spanish pop
ulation are lliterates-tha such an enter
prise as that OF Senior Ferrer was not only
Justified, but of the highest national value.

anthropist and a dreamer than that OF a

CAREER OF SENIOR FERRER.

Francisco Ferrer, who was born about 40
years ago. was the son of a cooper at Alella'
a place about ten miles from Barcelona. lie
had throughout his life been q pronounced
opponent of monarchial principles, and after
the failure of the short-lived experiment OF
the Spanish Republic he left Spain and es,
tablished himself in Paris, where he gained
his living by teaching. Some ten years ago
Senior Ferrer received a considerable lega-
cy from a lady, Mile. Meunier, who sym.
pathized with his views on the subject OF
lay education, and with the money he was
consequently able to dispose OF he opened
about seven years ago, the Escuela Moderna'
in Barcelona, for secular education. Among

PLANS TO PROVIDE
ORDNANCE EXPERTS
Captain Fletcher's Pet
Scheme Will Be Put Into
Operation Again.

As result of a plan now being
worked out by the Navy Department il
is expected that in the course Of few
years the navy viii have among its OH
GERS and on every ship of war ordnance
experts who will rank with, If not
above, those to be found in any navy
in the world.
The plan is to take twelve ensigns
each year and give them a thorough
training In the manufacture Of guns Of
ali kinds and also in the manufacture OF
powder. The idea was first put into
effect by Captain Fletcher, formerly
head of the ordnance bureau Of the
navy, but now commander Of the battle
ship Vermont. Captain Fletcher had
scarcely put his plan into effect when
President Roosevelt ordered the feet on
its tour around the world and as the
navy was short of officers every avail
able man was taken from shore duty,
which was not regarded as absolutely
essential. Since the return Of the feet
the plan has again been taken up and
twelve ensigns have now been detached
from ships and given a years time IN
which to become thOTOughly familiar
with the ordnance of the navy from the
time work is begun in the steel foundry
until the gun is actually in operation on
board ship.
Each ensign viii have tour Of duty
Of about three months at four places
where ordnance work Is done for the
Government. Several of these men are
row at the Government powder works
at Indian Head, studying the manufac-
ture Of powder with a view to not only
becoming thoroughly familiar with pres
ent methods but also for the purpose Of
devising. If possible, Improvements over
the present system. Another group Of
young officers has been sent to Bethle-
hem, Pa, where they viii watch the
manufacture Of guns. Still another
group Is detailed for duty at the Gen
eral Electric Works at Sohnectady, n.
Y. where the electrical devices for the
operation Of the guns in the turrets.
ammunition hoists, etc, are manufae-
tured
Several OF them are located at the
Washington navy yard. where the guns
are assembled. When an ensign has a
good working knowledge Of how things
are done at one station he is promptly
ordered to another station where an
other branch of ordnance work is being
done. 1t is believed BY the department
officials that this plan viii not only be
productive of an occasional genius, but
that il VIII eventually result in having
on board every ship Of war in the navy
one or more officers who have an init
mate knowledge of the guns and powder
with which they work instead of the
knowledge Of the present day which Is
acquired from books and during the
semi-annusl target practice cruises.
