tons in any country and In different
lines of agriculture. SO 1t would
seem desirable, therefore, that the In,
itial attempt In establishing this
type of school should be made on a
sugar plantation. Another reason
for this is that this department has
not at its disposal sufficient funds for
the establishment and operation OF
such u school. and II is only with the
cooperation Of some sugar plantation
that such a plan is feasible at the
present time.
Proposed Plan.
The plan proposed Is as follows
The plantation to set aside a field of
about 200 acres Of good cane land to
be cultivated by the boys of the agri
cultural school under similar condi
tons and On like terms as is custom
airy In making contracts with other
cane cultivators. The plantation to
furnish the buildings and appurte-
nances necessary. Such buildings
would consist of a kitchen. a dining
room-which can be used for class
room-bath room, dormitories, etc,
also cottages for teachers. These
buildings should be neat and sani
tary, but need not be expensive.

Agricultural and Industrial Schools.
This department can better meet

mass of the children In this territory
by supplementing the present educa.

of industrial and agricultural schools.
In order to do this with the greatest
benefit to the children and the in
dustrial interests of the Territory,
an amendment to the law relating to
compulsory attendance at school was
prepared. which was passed at the
last session of the Legislature. with
some notifications. AZ amended the

Good Night, Lookouts! Elberfeld
Now Leads in Managerial Race

CHATTANOOGA, TENN, Aug.
27.-It seems like the one
best bet that Kid Elherfeld
will be the next manager of the
Lookouts. OF course. nothing Off
cial has been stated but every in
dication points to the Tabasco Kid
as the man who will be finally Sc
lected for the local managerial
staff
The former Senator and Yankee
and President O. B. Andrews en-
gagged in a controversy this spring,
whose intensity 1t was thought
would prevent the formers ever
coming here, but subsequent de-
velopments have greatly mitigated
the ill-feeling between the two.
The one point at variance be-
tween the two at present appears to
be the desire of Elberfeld to pur-
chase a block Of stock in the club
and the unwillingness of the pres
ent stockholders that he should do
so. The Kid, so it is understood,
is unwilling to sign up under any
other conditions.

Elberfeld is greatly liked here
and his arrival would be accepted
with general approval by fandom,
but there are number of close
students of the game who question
his managerial ability, in view of
the temperament which he has
shown in the past. According to
Clark Griffith, the Kid was prima-
rily responsible for the disruption
of the Yankees just before his de-
parture, and it is a known fact
that he refused to have him under
his direction at Washington this
year.
Furthermore, his part in the Nc
Elveen matter in Atlanta indicates
to some extent that he is not pos
sessed of any too great self con-
troll and equanimity.
The Kids ability as a ball play
er however, can not be questioned
nor his knowledge of the game. If
he proves to be a man that can lead
the players he viii undoubtedly
make one of the best pilots in the
circuit.
