A CHAMPION SPELLER.
Horace Greeley Was a Wonder When
Only Six Years Of Age.

No champion of the old time spelling
matches, perhaps, ever excelled Horace
Greeley He was. in fact. spelling
prodigy What would the boys and
girls Of today. who grumble over their
daily stint of twenty words. think OF
Child not yet six years old who could
actually spell every word in the Ian
guage, That is what the young Horace
Is said to ha' been able To do
His schooling began in his fourth
year. aud the art of spelling at once
became passion with him In school
and out he kept necessarily at its
study. Hour after hour he would lie
on the floor, spelling over all the diff
cult words he could ind in the few
books that the family owned.
The fame of his prowess spread.
Naturally Horace WAS the first one
chosen at spelling matches. He had a
lisping. whining voice and spelled his
words with the utmost confidence.
Sometimes In winter, when the snow
drifts were so deep that one of the
big boys had to take him TO the school
house on his back. the little white
haired fellow would drop asleep be
tween turns When his word came
round his neighbor would nudge him
anxiously He would wake, spell his
word aud drop asleep again at once.
So great was the boys reputation as
a student of unusual powers that the
selectmen of neighboring town. In
passing n rule forbdding the attend
ance at the local school Of any pupil
from outside the township, honored
him by adding the clause, Excepting
only Horace Greeley. Com

STANDARDIZATION OF PARTS.
eli Whtney's Scheme ReVolutionized
the Manufacturing Business.

the Manufacturing Business.
The system of the Standardization of
parts. now so universal originated with
Eli Whitney. the inventor of the cot
ton gin. when he undertook to make
muskets The government gave him
contract in 1893 for 10000 stands OF
arms. although he had no plant" for
their manufacture. He built a small
factory in New Haven. Conn. and be-
gan work. but found great obstacle
in the difficulty of getting good work
men. especially those capable of acting
as fOremen under his novel methods.
His plan. rs is pointed out by George
lies in a recent original study of Whit
ney's achievements, was to make OF
his factor Il single huge machine. IN
an armory before Whitney's day each
man. highly skilled, produced by him
self a distinct part of musket This
division of labor Whitney supplanted
by so apporti0ning work that little or
no skill was demanded. He separated
the various tasks and at each of these
opera tons kept a group busy. For
their assistance he simplified each OPP
GRAFTON and introduced three aids since
indispensable in Notwithstanding
by templets or patterns fling by jigs
o. guides and milling irrea ular forms.
From first to last model musket
was copied with precision so that ev-
cry lock. for example. was exactly like
every other among thousands. When
all the parts needed to form weapon
were assembled they united much su-
perior to a musket formed on any 9th
err plan. In case of repair new part
exactly fitted the place of an old part
and at a. trihing cost
In order to accomplish his purpose
and carry ont his contract. whose exc
cution was much prolonged, Whitney
was Obliged to invent new tools and
machines at every step. none of which
was patented BY doing so be not only
greatly improved the finish and accura-
cy of his guns and the speed Of their
manufacture. but so impressed the val
ne of the idea Of standardization upon
the minds Of manufacturers that 1t was
presently applied in other trades and
has long since become the rule in man
ufacturing. -Harpers

COMMITTEE HEARINGS.

The various bills intended to pro-
vide new methods of distributing the
school funds OF the State were given
hearing before the committee on
education, Thursday afternoon. There
are three bills before the COMMITTEES,

equally between the sides, and one
hour allowed at the end to clean uu.

and Indifference and laughing COM
ments from the police We're recounted,
today, before the Senate committee
that has begun an investigation into
the alleged lack CT protection given the
great suffrage pageant of last Monday.
Women prominent in national affairs
and in suffrage councils told of their
harrassed progress through surging
crowds of men and boys whom the
police. they said, made little effort to
hold back. Their stories differed in de-
tail because of the various points
from which the PENNSYLVANIA avenue
march had been observed, but their
statements as to the general attitude
of the police We're endorsed by Rear
Admiral Van Reypen. retired and
George f. Bowerman. librarian at the
Carnegie Library of Washington, who
appeared as witnesses against the Pc
lice department.
Miss Julia Lathrop, chief of the
Childrens Bureau of the department of
commerce and labor, one of the march,
ers in the Suffrage parade, said the
few police she saw seemed to be mere

spectators" Mrs. Harriet Taylor Up
