RAILROADS HIRE MEN TO REPLACE THOSE WHO QUIT

l New York, Aug. 31-Although the
 freight embargo declared by the rail- 1 roads will not become operative until
 tonight, the prospective railroad strike
 already is causing widespread incon- venience and anxiety throughout New York and New England. Every
 branch of business depending on rail | transportation is making plans to off, set so far as possible the threatened | loss of transportation facilities. At all the big railroad centers here | it was evident today that prepara- tions are being made to keep as many trains as possible running after the brotherhood men leave their posts. Day and night classes of instruction
 gre in progress for men destined to take the places of the strikers. There is extraordinary demand in the em- p1oyment agencies not only for men who have had steam railroad eXperi ence but for trolley motormen, cleo tricians and stationary engineers and firemen.
 Railroad officers here expect to handle during the next three days the greatest volume of passenger traf-
 fife they ever had to deal with. Roads
 which had planned excursions of La bor Day have either abandoned them or warned prospective travellers that tickets were purchased subject to de- lay in case of a strike.
 After the first thrill of apprehen- sion fears of a food famine have somewhat abated. Wholesale grocers and commission dealers report the receipt of orders from hotels, restau-
 rants and small dealers who seem anxious to lay in reserve stocks. In
 most cases these orders have not been filled but the wholesalers believe they will be able to protect their custom
 CTS from day to day. Theatrical pro- ducers agree that their business
 would be one of the first to suffer
 heavy loss from a railroad strike
 Managers estimated that such dis aster would affect at least 10000
 members of the profession. Ali Hay
 Frohman company, said:
 "If the strike comes I will be very much inclined to close abruptly every | theatre and company in my control | During the railroad strike of 1894 one
 of Charles Frohman's companies was playing Shenandoah at McVicker's
 theatre in Chicago to S1, Joe a night. l $60."
 The police department has compil- | ed a list of commercial automobiles and orse-drawn vehicles which would | be available.

 Today young people scatter widely. The members of a high school gradua- ting class drop out of sight, so that this argument of local acquainta nee has less value.

 of the college course, the high school graduates are apt to stand better. Ap- parently the reason is that private school pupils are often rich mems sons who have never felt the necessity of working.
 Private schools undoubtedly turn out finished gentlemen and ladies. In this refined environment they acquire manners and courtesies that are too apt to be lacking in high school pu-

PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS

A glance over magazines ana he"s- papers at this time of year shows an enormous number, of advertisements of private schoos S, academies, semln- aries, etc. The number of boys and girls sent away to such schools before college age is very large. Many par ents feel it is an advantage for them to be thrown on their own resources and develop self reliance.

It is a rather serious thing to send boys and girls away from home st an immature age. The scholastic advan- ages may be all that could be wished but meanwhile unwholesome assoscta- tions may be formed. Before sending them to a distant school, one ought to be quite positive that the educa- tional facilities near home are not adapted to secure the best, results.

bringing Up Father

Bringing Up Father, at the Grand
opera house, Rocky Ford Friday, Feb
ruary IL, the reigning cartoon series
of the newspaper world, by Mr.. Geo.
McManus. has been the nucleus of a
new musical comedy produced under
the direction of Gus Hill, who seems
to be about the only sure fire sue
cessful cartoon play producer extant.
We've got to hand it to Gus, McManus
was wise to place his Bringing Up
Father in Hills hands, which is next
to having his hand on about a half
million real dollars. The newest bid
for musical comedy honors represents
an outlay of a goodly sum of money,
as Gus Hill has not yet reached the
cross roads where producers usually
turn back. He will make Bringing
Up Father more magnificent than any
thing he has ever produced. A car
load of scenery and electrical effects
are very necessary adjunct to a
good play, so is good book and cat
chy music, incidentally few regular
actors. A car load of feminine beauty
is probably the most valuable asset
to play of that kind and Mr.. Hill
has that car load, and it's pullman
too.
Prices 26c to $3.50.

the University of Missouri cannot

selves to do it or let 1t alone. There
is no means Of forcing them to do it.
The prime reason the cooperative

there is no appropriation for the
