Coal Dust Mars Lyra's Cargo
More than 1000 sacks of the 5000
tons of refined sugar which arrived
the steamer Lyra, were found to be
more or less thickly coated with coal
dust when the hatcnes were taken off
the hold next to the coal bunkers. Be
fore the ship was loaded the bulkhead
between the bunkers and this hold were
lined with building paper. and over this
another layer of boards was nailed. 1t
was thought that the bulkhead was dust
tight. Those who believed this did not
take into consideration the power of
penetration possessed by the dust from
PocahontaS coal.
AS the sugar is refined and packed
in small white sacks all ready for the
retail market the coal stained sacks
will represent loss which will fall,
say the underwriters, on the ship The
full extent of the damage will not be
known until the sacks have been opened
1t is believed, however, that coal dust
capable of making its way through thai
bulkhead would not be halted by a few
thicknesses of cotton sacking, that part
of the sugar will have to be re-refined
in order to get rid of 1.-The black dia-
mond dust.
The Lyras cargo was consigned to
the Federal sugar company.

ITALIAN BOY OF TWELVE

NEW YORK, June 22-Although
only 12 years old Generao Pesce has
twice Travelled across the Atlantic from

Pesce was born in the United States,

Of his parents was never approved by
Generuo, whose nature appears to be
highly patriotic. A few weeks ago he
arrived here rs stowaway, but was de-
ported forthwith.
He came back to the land of his
birth on Monday as stowaway on
the steamship Duke d'Abruzzi to show
the authorities not only that he had
relatives who were willing to take care
Of him.

Herald.
When President James Of the Univer-
sity of Illinois was in Washington the
other day, attending that meeting Of the
parliamentary committee, I asked him II
there was any demand from business
houses for cpllege-bred men.
THE demand has been far in excess of
the supply. since courses in business adj
ministration were established In our in
stitution, seven years ago. 1t is not pos
sible to express the extent Of this demand
in figures, but each year has brought
many more requests than we had men to-
recommend.
This was more especially true in the
earlier years than in the last two years.
The changed industrial conditions In 1908
and 1909 undoubtedly affected the oppor-
tunities for employment somewhat, but
there has been no decided decline in the
demand for university-trained men. Prac-
tically all of our graduates of the last
and in addition we have mad calls for
men in some lines Of business where we
had no candidates to recommend.
During the last seven years We have
graduated about fifty men under the cap
ton business Students while some thirty
others, who have been graduated as gen
eral literature and arts or general
science students, have virtually been pre-
pared in the business courses. A large
majority Of these men are now either in
the employ Of business concerns or are in
business on their own account. A far
larger number would have equally good
opportunities open to them. The demand
for university-trained men in business is
strong and persistent Other things being
equal, the university graduate is unques
tionably preferred.
