They pointed to the fact that the initial theft took place on March 4, the night that the presen admins tration took over the government. as disproving this theory. At that time. they say, there was not the slightest thought of trouble with Japan. and no special reason why Japanese agents should want plans of an Amer ican battleship.
 Plans to Be Sold Later.
 The theory most popular with the detectives who are working on the case is that the plans were stolen by someone who believed he might be able to sell them later.
 Reasoning along these lines, the operatives who are working to solve the mystery claim that the thief prob. ably still has the plans and they will be able to recover them They are watching certain persons in this and other cities who have a reputation for trafficking in military and naval plans, and there is possibility that this espionage will bring results.

The House with the Green Door.

The house with the green door
That opened to let my Love in,
And opened never before.

In my face blew the bitter rain;

Calling her name-in vain.
Oft went back through the storm,
Strong the impulse that bore me,
Singing the sleet in my face,
And chill the welcome before me.
1t opened but once before,
Once it will open again
The house with the green door.
And nojseless bolt and chain.

Yet, sometime he light will burn.
And friends watch late in my house
And shall not return.

VOCATIONAL EDUCATION.
Six States Have More or Less Complete
Systems.

The movement fGT vocational educa
ton in this country is now in full swing
Six states already have more or les
complete systems OF vocational training
and a number OF others are considering
| legislation to introduce into the publi
school work that will fit boys and girl
more directly for earning a living IL
order to aid in the movement the Ma
tional society for the promotion of in
dnstrial education has issued a brief, ex
plieit statement of what it considers th'
main principles that should underlie tht
proposed legislation, and the United
States bureau of education, while not
giving official Endorsement to the pro
gram as a whole, Us sending copies of tht
pamphlets to those who apply for it.
What are the essentials of state sys-
tenn Of practical education The society's
circular endeavors to answer this ques-
ton. In few short non technical para
graphs it sums up certain of the funda-
mental policies of vocational education
as this society sees IT, IL urges state
aid to the local communities, 1t recog-
nizes four fields OF vocational training as
boys and girls: Industrial education for
workers in the trades and industries and
in the household; agricultural education
for the farmers; commercial education
for clerks, statesmen, etc; and "house-
hold arts education for -wage-earn-
ing oecupa tions connected with the home.
In other words, the state ought to make
il possible for children TO receive in the
public schools instruction that will fit
them directly for productive employment
in any OF these useful occupations, in
stead of sending them out with little or
no training for the real work they are
going to do.
Experience has already been sufficient
to indicate in what kind of schools this
vocational training can be given. The
circular cites number OF types of
schools. some based on European models,
the following: The all-day vocational
schools, where the pupils can spend at
least one year in all-day attendance; the
part-time schools, where boys and girls
employed may come for a few
hours each week; the evening schools in
or agriculture, for persons over
rs years of age who work during the
day; and similar evening schools or class
es in household arts.
1t Is significant that the six states
that have already set up systems of vo-
rational education Massachusetts, New
York. Connecticut, New Jersey, Wiscon-
sin. and Tndiana-have long had excel
ent schools. The newer education which
hey are introducing is not intended to
'eplace the old, but to supplement il
% give training for specific employ
pent in addition to the regular school
ng, so that the boys and girls may be
more efficient and willing workers, as
veil as better educated individuals.

Mr.. Burleson declared that he would
not be party to any attempt to raid
the postoflice department in the interest
of mere partisanship. IL am absolutely
in sympathy" he said, with the osten.
sib,. purpose of the executive orders
which placed the postmasterships in the
classified service. But they did not go
far enough Instead of spreading a COW
er unfortunately over the men who
happened to be in the offices at the
time, they should have provided for tests
of merit and efficiency which would have
insured that the best men should be in
the positions before they were thus pro-
tected.
What he was trying to do, Mr.. Burle-
son said, was to devise way to slit
out the inefficient or the less efficient,
install those best fitted for the Offices,
and then prJtect them by laws and rules
which would eep them out of politics
forever.
Doubtless it may benefit Democrats
to some extent he said, but it will

Cleveland and His Cabinet.

How President Cleveland and his off.
cial family worked together is tho
theme of an article written for the
March Century" by Hilary A. Herbert
who was secretary of the navy in tho
last Democratic administration. Mr.
Cleveland's cabinet officers were his help
ers and advisers, says Mr.. Herbert, and
save in the rare instances in which 10
had made up his mind for himself, he
took their advice freely on great ques'
tions. sometimes individually and some
times collectively. This advice hs
weighed carefully. He never called fol
opinions from members in order to place
a share Of the responsibility on Others,
Nor did he in cabinet meetings formally
put questions TO vote. although hi
quite often asked every one to give mis-
view.
He listened and decided for himself
either during the session or later. Dis
cussiOn sometimes changed his opinion
but when after careful elaboration he
had reached a conclusion, he chung to il
with a tenaoity that the world called
obstinacy. Responsibility for every act
that had been considered in cabinet ht
took upon his own shoulders, and ID
vas always disposed to stand by his de-
Dartment officials.

good reason to believe that Prince
Erick. cousin OF King George OF England

prince has been at work on his farm on

agricultural colleges Next summer he
will 60 to England to study agricultur-
al conditions there. and afterwards he
| will sail for America.

should go to the United States to learn
agriculture, it is also apparent that the
American authorities are convinced that
Danish agricultural institutions have
much to commend them, for only last
week a special government commission
arrived here from Washington, and has
already started to study the rural
schools and cooperative agricultural So
eieties of Denmark. The members of the
commission are H. w. Foght, bureau of
education, department of the interior:
II. L. Friend state supervisor OF high
schools of West Virginia, and w. II.
Smith, rural school inspector OF Missis-
sippi.
The commission will remain for three
months in Denmark, and on its return
make a report on the facilities for agri-
cultural education in a country where

growth of mind and body and the de-
velopment of sturdy American men and

cation OF child labor is regarded as an
unwarranted invasion of personal lib

Unionism gives rise and emphasis to
purely brotherly obligations. Unionism
does not stop to pass judgment on
worthiness or keep records of misfor-
tunes or find excuses for withholding
the practical sympathy that will relieve
pain or assuage grief. Apart from all
other causes for fellow union members
being neighborly, are two principal ones.
Trade unionists are free to be neighbor-
ly, as they brook no interference from
their employers in their social relations.
They have broad acquaintanceship
among their fellow workers, and there
springs to their minds at once the me-
cessity and the possibility of help in
case of need.
A worker is hurt. his family is in
need member of the same "inter-

PRES. POINCARE
TO SPEND SALARY
Does Not Propose to Save Anything
From Salary and Will Go to Work
When He Gets Through.

Paris, March 22--President Poncare
has made up his mind to spend, as fast
a. he receives it, every penny of hia
presidential income OF $4,000 a year.
Then, at the end of his seven-year term
he will return without savings to earn
ing his living as lawyer. A total in
come during the term OF office Of nearly
81, 100000 has given opportunity to pre-
vious French presidents to lay aside q
snug sum against the time when they
retire to private life, but even this
commendable thrift does not enter into
the plans OF the new president of the
French republic.
NJ. Poincare expressed this determina-
tion to be lavish in his expenditures to
a lawyer friend a few days ago. HIS
friend thought this was rather unwise,
and pointed out TO the president that
his private means were not large.
What will you do, If you don't save
anything, when you are no longer pres
ident ~ he asked.

Adornment of Presidents.
Although French presidents only ap-
pear with the sash of the Legion of Hon.
OF in public, they could, if they wished,
display as many varigated ribbons, stars
and crosses as any hereditary monarch
in the world.
OF living ex-presidents, NJ. Loubet
holds the record; he has no less than 33
grand ribbons and grand crosses, as
against 2s for his successor. NJ. Fallieres.
NJ. Loubet alone among ex-presidents

Norway; the Initial of Turkey; the Lib
