MU HuntiuKtun'a (irt-at Work for Hrr
Leaa Fortunate Siatra In a Itl City.
"There is bo much to Gnd fault with
and ho much to wish for in such a threat
bi, dirty city as ours that sometimes
the good, sweet, modest facts connected
with onrcharitahle institutions are over
looked," said a visitor to the Wilson In
dustrial school and mission as she came
away from there the other day. The
building at 12 St. Mark's place was
turned, nearly forty years ago, from
factory into the pleasant school house
which it now is. This school, which was
the first institution of the kind in Amer
ica, is not endowed and is maintained
entirely by voluntary contribution. Mrs.
Jonathan Stnrges is the first director,
and many familiar names are on the list
of managers.
The matron of the school is Miss
Emily Huntington, the originator of the
system or kitchen garden training, a
branch of work now carried
'
ou not
only at the Wilson school and elsewhere
in this city, but in other American cities
and in Canada, England, Ireland, Scot
land and France. - Miss Huntington has
made the mission house her home, and
here she watches day by day the results
of the methods which she has estab
lished. It is with a fascinating interest that
one listens to the tale of how by the
merest chance Miss Huntington, at
eighteen, just out of school and ready
to be ushered into fashion's pleasures,
chanced to be taken by a friend to visit
a "ragged school," and how the only
daughter of fond parents put society
and the usual amusements of youth
aside, and not in the same manner, but
with the same motive as her cousin, Fa
ther Huntington, set herself about mis
sion school work.
Nobody could work with Miss Hunt
ington's energy and her capacit' for or
ganizing without developing new ideas
which should bring fortli more com
plete work, so as time passed on and she
gained experience, not only among the
poor, but with her own class, 6he made
various discoveries. One was that the
leisure of some of the young girls of her
acquaintance might readily be put to
good account, and another that kitchen
gardening might with profit be adapted
to the rich as well as the poor.
She obtained the co-operation of some
of the mothers and the interest of the
girls, so that a meeting was called for
the purpose of developing a plan of
movement. Fifty girls met at the house
of one of the elder women. This was in
18G7. It was proved that most of them,
no matter how well verted they were in
Latin and geometry, knew absolutely
nothing about domestic science, so ar
rangements were made for forming a
normal class which should be divided
into companies, these companies to go
I' to the mission for regular days of teach
ing. These young women, as their paths
divided, removed to Boston, dneayn
and elsewhere and set up kitchen gar
dens of their own, with the result that
the system has spread everywhere. It
might even be said with truth that the
I other thought, that of the Working
Girls' clubs, emanated from this mis
sion, for Miss Grace H. Dodge was one
of the fifty young women who joined in
the work there, and it was no doubt be
cause of the experience she gained at this
time her idea was conceived and devel
oped. The girls became kitchen gardeners
( themselves, and afterward, when mar
riage had placed some of them in homes
of their own, they wrote to the founder
of the system, "You have no idea how
kitchen garden helps me with my serv
ants and my housekeeping," and to
others it gave the means of livelihood"
when unforeseen reverses of fortune
made them dependent upon their own
resources.
It must be confessed that "kitchen
garden" is a rather misleading name,
for it suggests to many a place where
vegetables are grown for kitchen use.
When Miss Huntington was asked about
the name, she said: "It means a system
by which all the intricacies of domestic
science are taught sweeping, dusting,
I washing, ironing, waiting at table, etc.
I thought a little of changing the name
at one time because it was confounded
with the term vegetable garden, but I
found nothing that quite took its place,
and I soon discovered that the fact that
the name had to be explained gave it
additional importance."
The school hours are the same here as
elsewhere from 9 to 3. There are about
200 girls, ranging in age from five to ten,
and there are the usual lessons in read
ing, writing and arithmetic, which come
under the head of study. The training
in the kitchen garden branches is little
else than a systematized form of play,
and this takes up a proportionate part of
the school day. Xew York Tribune.
Nickel Armored Ships Can't Go Nortli.
The remarkable discovery of the ef
fect of temperature on the density of
nickel steel is likely to have an im
portant bearing on its use in the con
struction of war vessels. After this va
riety of steel has been frozen it is read
ily magnetized, and, moreover, its den
sity is permanently reduced fully 2 per
cent, by the exposure to the cold. It is
stated that a ship of war built in the
temperate climate of ordinary steel and
clad with say o.OOO tons of nickel steei
armor would be destroyed by a visit to
the arctic regions, owing to the con
traction of the steel by the extreme lov
tempeiature. New York Journal.

A Japanese Soclrty. f
There are so many English people who
have visited Japan or who have fallen
in love with it from reading the eulogies
penned by Sir Edwin Arnold, Mr. Nor
man and others, that the society which
is in course of formation for "the en
couragement of the study of Japanese
art, science and industries, of the com
merce and finance, the social life, the
literature, the language, history and
folklore of the Japanese," ought to be a
success. Certainly the programme does
not lack comprehensiveness, for almost
any one of the subjects enumerated
would be sufficient to keep an ordinary
society going.
The organizing council contains several
names closely associated with the coun
try, such as Mr. Ernest Satow. Professor
W. Anderson and Professor Church, as
well as those of leading Japanese resi
dents in England. Very suitablj', the
headquarters of the society are to be at
the Japanese consulates in London,
Liverpool and Glasgow, for no eople
are more anxious to spread a knowledge
of Japan abroad than the Japanese gov
ernment. London Chronicle.
A Bad Place to lie 111.
It is one thing to have the grip in
town or anywhere on the mainland
within reach of a doctor, and another
think to be stricken with the disease on
a remote isle of the sea. On a Thursday
morning recently the inhabitants of
Grand Manan, a large, well injpulated
island off the Maine coast, observed a
single fire the sick signal burning on
Tliree Isles, six miles seaward, but as a
gale was blowing and the 6ea running
high nobody could land there. On Sun
day evening a physician, accompanied
byi three sturdy oarsmen in a dory,
reached the isles in a blinding snow
storm. Fifteen of the sixteen inhabi
tants were sick abed, leaving one man
barely able to crawl to the headland and
keep the signal burning. It was three
days before weather moderated suffi
ciently to allow the relief party to re
turn home, and in that time the sick
were relieved. New York Sun.
Lightning Spared the Pioua Pair.
During a heavy rain lightning struck
the parsonage of the Methodist Episco
pal church, a nice four room cottage,
completely demolishing the building
with the exception of the east room, in
which were sitting the pastor, the Itev.
Jerome Haralson, and his wife. That
they were not instantly killed everybody
pronounces a miracle, for everything in
their room all around them was broken
in small pieces. A more complete wreck
was never seen. There is not a whole
nail or piece of timber in the building
except in the little room they occupied.
Not only the building was wrecked, but
the fence around it was torn down. The
shock broke a considerable amount of
crockery for those living in the neigh
borhood of the parsonage. Haskell Cor.

The Dog Didn't Like II is Suore.
In hunting for evidence of a dog fight
Sunday the officers learned that one
Herbert Sprague, a stevedore, had been
bitten by a canine. Investigation shows
that Sprague went to bed Saturday
night with a bull pup. Sprague snored,
and this disturbed the dog, so he
scratched his owner's face to wake him.
Sprague retaliated by cuffing the ca
nine, whereupon the bull fastened his
teeth in the man's nose and then shook
him, sadly lacerating the member.
Sprague finally broke the hold, disabled
the dog with a chair and then got a
neighbor to shoot him. The nose will
recover, but looks bad. Bangor Cor.

The Congressional Funeral.
On the recent congressional trip to
Chicago from Washington, a young man
accustomed to hilarity began to weary
of the staid decorum of the excursion
ists and to long for something wild and
woolly.
"Great Scott," he finally exclaimed to
a veteran member, "this is like a funeral
train."
"Is it?" said the congressman, with a
significant smile; "well, I guess j-ou
don't know much about one of our fn

1 emit soil' i :t;ii;tt ion.
Lord Tennyson is said to be greatly
angered at tli lw;ok in which Mr. ('bur
ton Collins seems, at any rate, to briii'
against him a charge of plagiari.-m
This is a charge which has always had
the most irritating efi'ect upon the poet,
and most people will prebably agree
that a liook like Mr. Collins' is probably
best postponed until the aior with
whose work it deals is beyond Le feel
ing of resenVnent. We are confident
that the greater number of the critics
who today deal so cavalierly with Vir
gil, Homer, Horace and the other great
immortals, would attain if their vic
tims were still in the land of the living.
And in this case the matter is made
worse by the fact that Lord Tennyson
has been at special pains to show his
feelings in regard to any charges of th
kind. "These writers," he said to a
friend, on the occasion when he was last
made the subject of this charge, "these
writers are the lice on the locks of liter
ature," showing that even in his wrath .
a poet does not forget to use "allitera
tion's artful aid."
Nor is this anger remarkable when it
is remembered on what passages tho
would be accuser fixed in order to provo
the truth of his indictment. PoorTenuj
eon was not allowed to say "Ring tho
belLs' without being accused of having
borrowed from Sir Philip Sidney, or to
apply to the ocean the verb "roar"
without being told that he had plaiga
rized from Homer! And when he de
scribed a waterfall in the well known
line, "Slow dropping veils of thinnest
lawn," he was immediately charged by
a critic with having borrowed the meta
phor from the lawn used in theaters to
imitate a waterfall! Imagine the feel
ings of a faithful artist who had t-tudied
the effect ljefore a waterfall in the
Pyrenees ! Ii tokinau.
