BATTLEsHIP PLANS STOLEN.
Reports That They Are Important
Denied.

Washington, May 14.-Small cred
ence is given here today to state
ments of officials of the navy depart
ment, who, since the discovery that
secret plans of the battleship Penn
sylvania have been stolen from the
department, have been busy making
statements to minimize the impor-
tance of the theft That the depart
ment does regard the theft as impor-
tant was shown today when Secre-
tary Daniels ordered that the thief
be located, regardless of expense,
and already sleuths are working des-
perately both inside and outside Of
the department to carry out his or
ders
1t is now practically admitted that
the stolen blueprints showed the en-
tire plan of electric wiring of the
battleship and are complete exposi-
ton of the warship's system of fire
control.
Secret service men on the case and
attaches of the department freely ad-
NIT that up to the present they are
without a clue to the thief or thieves
who coolly stole the plans from the
departments drafting room. 1t is
feared the crime was the work OF
some member of the department, and
if this is the case it is far from GER
tain that the full extent of the thefts
has yet been exposed. 1t is also
feared that, in addition to the plan:
stolen bodily, the most secre
schemes of the department may have
been copied and disposed of to some
foreign power.
Officials of the department anx
iously deny that the theft of the
plans has any connection with the
Japan situation which has developed
in California. They say that the first
theft of plans occurred March be-
fore the California situation became
acute and there is a general and ap
parent desire to insist that it is i'm
possible Japan may be involved
Secretary Daniels issued a state
ment this afternoon in which he de
clared it was the belief in the de
partment that one of it's member!
stole the missing plans, but he ad
mitted that this was simply a guess
and that there is no clue to the thief
The secretary was evidently worried

Guaranty Trust Company of New
York Moves $4,000, 100000.


In moving to its new building at
140 Broadway recently the Guaranty
Trust Company of New York trans
ferred from its former quarters to it's
new vault, cash and securities
amounting to more than $2,250, 0,000,-
600. Nearly $4,000, 100000 of this
was in the shape of trust securities
held by it's trust department. This is
probably the largest amount Of
actual physical wealth that has ever
been moved at one time by one insti-
tuition.
The main banking room of the
company, on the opening day, resem-
bled the annual flower show at Madi-
son Square Garden quite as much as
it did banking room, for immense
bouquets and floral pieces sent in by
the neighboring banks and other
friends of the company decorated
every portion of the immense room
President Sabin and the other Of
ficers were kept busy all day long
receiving the congratulations of hun
dreds of visiting friends. From the
time the great doors opened in the
morning until they were closed late
in the day there was a constant
stream of sightseers passing through
the building. 1t is estimated that
the total was well up in the thou
sands.

NEED OF NORMAL SCHOOLS IS GREAT
c. c. BENNETT OF UNIVERSITY OF OREGON WRITES FROM GALL
FORNA SETTING FORTH OREGONS GREAT NEED

new applicant: You go to the nor
NAL for training, and when you re-
turn, if your report is good, we will
agree to put you in line for a posi-
ton" Several investigations have
shown that the towns and country
districts which have a normal school
in their vicinity have many more
trained teachers than those towns
which are farther removed. All pro-
gressive superintendent, both city
and county, know that it is virtually
impossible to build up a good school
system without trained teachers and
the assistance of a normal school.
So we'll known is that that many
cities will not even try to depend
upon the state normal schools for
their supplies of teachers, but pro-
ceed to pay their state tax and in
addition to put on themselves an
extra tax in order to establish a city
normal school whose students are
trained for and practice in the city
schools.
And, speaking af practice schools,
that feature is the important point
in a normal school next to good
teachers in the normals. Differing
from institutions of higher grade, the
material equipment of a normal
school need not be extensive So
that the matter of having several
normal schools does not require the
expensive duplication of laboratories
libraries, etc., which is offered
against the separation of the parts
of the higher schools. But they dc
require adequate training facilities
Even if the matter of distance and
expense were the only factors and
they were in some way set aside the
present normal schools could not
give the training facilities which
would be needed for more than a
fraction of the state.
In California one of the largest
patrons of the San Jose normal
school was the Fresno territory, yet
the authorities of the San Jose
school helped on the movement to
establish a new normal school at
Fresno, for though San Jose is a
large town, and has a very large
training school, the president told
me the institution was powerless to
give the students the practice they
should have. So as the population
of the state grows it keeps putting
in these new normal schools to sup.
ply the teachers for the adjacent ter
ritory. And, of course, you know
what the results are in the way Of
efficient schools. Let the teacher
hold this as one of her cardinal prin
ciples: That good schools are posi-
BILE only with trained teachers, those
who know how to organize and pre-
| ieAAS W Illllul eli. liz
second part of that principle is tha
trained teachers are only possible
with a normal school system. Note
not with a normal school but a sys
TEN, which serve a people. Norma
institutes are the merest makeshifts
for normal school training cannot be
gotten from books. The university
does not get or is it fitted to prepare
the teachers for the common schools
AT every institute enthusiasm fol
more normal schools should be
worked up; the same at teachers
meetings and on every proper occa-
sion where q teacher can get in a
helpful word Agitation and persist
ence are the words.

Show Falling Off i,

SACRAMENTO. Aug. 12.-Statistics
for California for 1912 In comparison
with the average for 1907 to 1911. show
decreases in the proportion of mar
riages which were the first for one or
both parties, either groom or bride
or both of them being single.
The figures were compiled by G. d.
Leslie, statistician of the state board
OF health. Conversely, there is
marked increase In the per cent of
marriages which were the second or
over for both parties, the groom as
well as the bride being widowed or
divorced
The 22,S11 unions of bachelors with
maids in 1912 represent a per cent of
only 1928 against the annual average of
1876 for 1907 to 1911. Moreover the
aggregate per cent Of marriages which
were the first for one or both parties
was only 91.5 in 1912. as compared with
the average of 92.1 for the previous
five year period.
This falling off in the proportion of
marriages between bachelors and
maids, or between the single on one
or both sides of the match, Is offset
by marked gain In the proportion Of
marriages with both parties, widowed
or divorced, the per cent being So for
1912 against only TO for 1907 to 1911
In fact, the statistics show steady
rise in the per cent OF fair Divorces

THE ART OF NURSING

| The fair coquette has been shown
up in all her bewitching temptations.
The actress impersonates any char
acter, and by her manifold emotions
plays on the romantic chord of the
unsuspecting males sympathetic soul.
The sufragette displays such keen
Legislative ability that mere man, who
| for decades has had the heaviest cares,
willingly shifts some of his political
burdens to her shoulders. The school
teachers intellect has caused awe and
pride to many man. The house
keeper has proved the way to win a
man is through bis stomach. But in
all these professions has the nurse
had her full desertss To her falls the
arduous duty of taking care of the
stronger sex in his most disagreeable
aspect. She neither dances, amuses,
sings, dictates nor teaches her way
into the heart of man.
Not long ago wedding took place
at summer hotel among the Thou
sand islands The bride, aged IS, was
the nurse of the bridegroom, aged 65,
and very wealthy banker and hotel
proprietor of Washington, D. c. The
bride has had many remarks passed
about her marrying rich. May it not
be true that she was so welded to her
profession that she chose a man old
and inhrm, regardless of his money?
Nursing is very popular profession.
The suggestion in the criticism of the
bride of the Thousand isles that
wealthy patients can be nabbed while
they are weak, peevish and grateful is
hardly incentive enough to go through
all the hardships of training.
| The actress causes a thrill and car
ries man off his feet. The nurse gives
strength and puts man on his feet.
If the nurse goes into her profes-
sion for marrying, surely there are
other more esthetic and remunerative
occupations, for all patients are not
of the moneyed class. The fact seems
evident that it must be art for arts
sake, or nursing for the joy of bring
ling health, happiness, and only re-
motely, mayhap, for wealth.

EVERY YEAR A GOOD YEAR

Disquieting early reports to the
contrary, the 1913 sdeciduous fruit
crop will compare more than favor
ably with the 1912 crop, both in vol
ume and profits.
The cantaloupe, watermelon and
grape shipping season for the Impe-
rial valley district is virtually ended
The totals in cars shipped are approx.
imately Is per cent in excess of the
1912 shipments.
As of the same date in 1912 the
Imperial valley shipments of canta-
loupes were 2,S87 cars, as compared
with 3,508 cars this year. The water
melon shipments this year total 46l
cars, as against 301 last year. There
was but little difference in the aggre-
gate of the grape shipments, the to-
tails being 1l2 cars for this year as
against ITO cars for last year.
The total fruit shipments for ali
California up to August 4, as com
pared with the shipments up to the
same date last year, are the basis for
more satisfactory deductions than arc
the totals of shipments from the I'm
perial valley
The 1913 shipment of peaches shows
the handsome total of l,484 cars, as
against 353 cars for 1912 Except for
grapes and peaches the increases this
lyear over the shipments last year are
substantial, but not disproportionate
The grand totals for peaches, pears
plums, grapes and other fruits are
5000 cars this year, as against 1901
cars last year
All of which would seem to dis
prove the alarmists' cries of "ha1l
crop and quarter crop"
The crop is bigger than the 1917
crop, and, thanks to conditions in the
east and abroad, the prevailing prices
are higher and have remained firm.
Every year is a good year in Cali
fornia.
