ILLUMINATING Gas.

In the Philosophical Transactions
of the Royal Society of London for
1899 is printed a letter, written in
1901, in which the Rev. John Clay
tor details a series of experiments
he made in distilling coal in a re-
tort, showing not only that he had
observed the inhammable gases
evolved, but that he had collected
and stored them for some time in
bladders. In 1857 Lord Dundonald
made gas from coal, with which he
lighted the hall Of Culross abbey
In 1892 Robert Murdoch began the
experiments which resulted in the
establishment of coal gas as an illu-
minating agent. In 1897 be public
" showed the system he had ma
tured, and in 1875. being employed
in the factory of Boulton & Watt,
Birmingham, he fitted up an appa-
ratus for the manufacture of gas
in that establishment, with which
it was lighted. This was the first
use Of Illuminating gas except by
way of experiment.

MARSHALL AAO THE COLLEGES.

Governor Marshall's proposal
that a tuition fee be charged in
the several state institutions of
learning will not meet with favor,
we think, when it is understood.
The common free schools were
established that the children OF
the state might be placed on an
equality in the matter of common
school education. The univer
sites that are maintained by the
state were established for a sim
liar purpose. that the scholars
from the public schools might Sc
cure the higher forms of edu-
cation without having to under
go the expenses for tuition that
are attached to the institutions
of learning not under the sta es
patronage. N o matter h o W
small the tuition fee charged
might be, a proposition to charge
a tuition fee inthe public schools,
would and should, raise a cyclone
of protest. The same is true OF
the states colleges. The pur-
pose of these institutions is de-
feated when a tuition charge is
made.
1t looks much like Governor
Marshall is not in exact sympathy
with the universities that are
maintained by the state. and
that his prejudices are with the
private and the sectarian insti-
buttons of learning Washington
Gazette.
Governor Marshall is just right.
Of all the unmittigated frauds
every perpetrated on the tax
payers of the state of Indiana the
state support of the socalled Edu-
cation Institutes at Bloomington,
Lafayette and Terre Haute is
the worst. 1t is a specie OF
Robbery at best. Four million
of Indiana taxpayers ae com-
PEELED to pay for the ex IA edu-
cation of about 1000 students, or
one student for each 1000 tax
payers. These same students,
or 80 per cent of them, are only
gilded ounces, the off spring of
wealthy sires who can well at
ford to pay for their tuition.
And yet these beggarly panpers
do tax the farmer, the factory
employe and the ordinary labor
ing man to educate their whelps
Ii is one Of the most rank and
Unjust laws that disgrace the law
books of the state. These same
socaIled educational institutions
have for years maintained one
of the most disgraceful lobbys at
indianapolis, at every session of
the legislature, begging. bluffirg,
yelling and bowling for an APP
preparation, to enable them to
live on the fat of the land, while
the poor man slaves to pay to
educate some gilded Ounce; who
usually like to shove on airs, go
on school strikes, tear up the
town and take girls with them.
Any one acquainted with these
institutions know that the aboye
is plain unvarnished truth. And
if Governor Marshall can succeed
in abolishing state support OF
these institutions he will have
succeeded in accomplishing {
very worthy reform.

The summer hats. with their large
assortment of gay colors, have brought
Forth many new hatpins of French
and American make. Many of these
are noteworthy because of their size
and bright colors.
The rhinestones and manufactured
pearls are the most popular among
the imported hat pins. They are all
the rage in Paris as well as in this
country. The favorite designs are the
spike and club, which are TO be had
at $50 up. according 10 their size.
They also are made in the balls. the

more unusual are the pear-shaped set

enge shape set with a pink denizite.
These pins are intended 70 be worn in
pairs, and four constitute none too

These imported hatpins are exQuis-
itely lovely. The better ones. though.
are exact copies OF the fresh water
pearls. Some OF these are plain except
for the pearl ornament while others
are a revival of the beautiful hatpins
worn by Marie Antoinette. The pearls
are surrounded with small garlands
made OF flowers and leaves The flow
ers are set with imitation rubies

IL was predicted some months ago
that jet had such a vogue that Il
would be cast on this spring. Though
Jet IS less fashionable as a trimming.
Jet jeweiry is certainly in demand.

cred a large part OF the trimming for
black and dark hats this season. The
large round balls are extremely popu-
lar. Some are plain and In the iuIl

balls are preferred.
The fine cut jets are continually
growing In popularity. especially in
hats made OF fine straw and horse
hair. These are made both In balls
and In butterflies Older women seem

pins. This metal has such vogue in
