KITCHEN TRAINING. A WORK WHICH HAS HELPED MANY POOR AND RICH FAMILIES. What "Kitchen Gar!iii Training," Means, II uw It Was Started and by Whom. MIhs Huntington' Great Work fur Her Lea Fortunate Sisters in a Itla; City. "There is so much ' to find fao.lt with and bo much to wish for in tuck a great big, dirty city as ours that Bometimos the good, 6weet, modest facts connected with our charitable 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 125 St. Mark's place was turned, nearly forty years ago, from a 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 contribu tion. Mrs. Jonathan - Stnrges is the first director, and many familiar names are on the list of managers. The" matron of the school is Mis? Emily Huntington, the originator of the system of kitchen garden training, a branch of work now carried on 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 hy 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 tho 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. capacity for or ganizing without developing new ideas which should bring forth more com plete work,' so as time passed on and she gained experience, not only among the poor, but with her own class, she 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 1867. It was proved that most of them, no matter how well versed 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 to the mission for regular days of teach ing. These j-oung women, as their paths divided, removed to Boston, Chicago 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 tmth that the other thought, that of the Working Girls' clubs, emanated from this mis sion, for Miss Grace II. 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, 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 1 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 aa 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 plajT, and tins takes up a proportionate part of the school day. Xew York Tribuue. Nickel Armored Ships Can't Go Kortb. 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 nee 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 3,000 ton of nickel teel armor would be destroyed ' by a vkit to the .arctic rfrkme, owing to. the con traction of the steel by the extreme low temperature.

I about as poor us a home missionary. 1 had to go to the late A. T. Stewart's to take his signature to an affidavit. He 6igned ami I swore him; then he wished to know how much there was to pay. Li view of what took liu-e afterward, I am justified, I 'think, in saying that what Mr. Stewart expected me to say when ho asked "How much?" was "Oh. that's all right." But 1 didn't say that; I said. "Seventy five cents." "What?" shouted Mr. Stewart. "Seventy-five cents," I answered again. "I won't pay it," said he. "You've no right to ask so much. The price is a shilling, and that's all I'll give you." "But, Mr. Stewart," I replied, "a shil ling is the price when you come to my , office. I've come to your store and I've a right to charge for my car fare and a : reasonable amount for my time. Seventy-five cents is really a very small ' charge, Mr. Stewart, a very small charge. "I won't pay it," he persisted. "If ! you want a shilling you may have it, but not one cent more." I got angry then. I gave him one look, with which I intended to convey the idea that 1 held him in contempt. : Then I said: "Mr. Stewart, you are a poor man and I'm a rich one. Twenty : five cents is nothing to me and seventy ' five cents is a fortune to you. I'll make you a present of that seventy-five cents . that you owe me. Then I made my best dancing schocl bow and walked off. Interview in .New York Times. The Effectiveneiis of Modern Guns. The prominence given to a lecture by the German doctor. Dr. Billroth, on the ; wounded in war, has induced Mr. Archi- ! bald Forles to write on the subject. Dr. Billroth estimates that of tiie cas ualties at Weisseuburg and Worth dur ing the Franco-German war, 80 per cent, of all the wounded were caused by rifles, 13 per cent, by the large guns, and not quite 5 per cent, by the lance and sword. Mr. Forbes, however, says that the sta tistics for the whole of the war on the German side prove that over 90 per cent, were due to rifle fire, about 9 per cent. to artillery, and about 1 ier cent, to cold steeL . The smallness of the mortality from the French artillery is explained by the fact that their artillery was notoriously badly served. Dr. Billroth believes that the future will see a still greater pro portion of deaths resulting from rifle fire than from shell. Mr. Forbes points out that, in doing 60, no account has been taken of the probable use of highly destructive explosives in the shells of the future. Army and Navy Gazette. The IMrst Protestant in Japan. The first Protestant Christian in Ja pan was one Murata, a military retainer of the Lord of Saga, m the southern is land of Kiushiu. In 1860 he went to Nagasaki, by order of his chief, and one evening, as he was crossing the harbor in a boat, he picked up a book that was floating about in the water. The writing rau from side to side, "like the crawling of crabs," and upon sending it to one of the Dutch liien settled at Nagasaki, he learned that it was the Christian Bible, then a proscribed hook. Curiosity spur red him on, and ho h:id one of his as sistants learn the language of tho book and tran&late it for Liin, sentence by sentence. nis study was continued in 6ecret, with a few friends, after his return home. When a difficult "passage was found, a messenger was sent to Dr. Ver beck, a well known missionary then in Nagasaki, for its interpretation. Murata was afterward baptized, and his name now stands first on the roll of Protes tant Christians in Japan. London Times. Women Taking the Places of Men. In Holland men can no longer be trusted to work the switches on the rail ways, and women now fill their places. This is a slap in the face indeed to the male sex, and a great triumph to the ad vocates of female labor. But we have yet to see how the thing works. The men say that there will now be looking glasses in the switch boxes, and that the women will never leave them till they have smoothed their last hair and settled the bow of their last ribbon, and that in the meantime there will be collisions; that when left to themselves they never have been in time for the train as pas sengers, and will not be more punctual as pointswomen; and, finally, that if they hear their lover's whistle anywhere in the neighborhood they will pay very lit tle attention to that of the locomotive. If these objections are not valid, con clude the men, "we are not Dutchmen." London Queen. An Old Fashioned Phrase. There is an old fashioned phrase of hospitality which consists of only two words, and I find it a parallel to the Greek salutation, and like it. a com mand.' "Sit by," saj-s the comfortable New England farmer to his guest be neath his roof. Now compare this com manding phrase with the more modern polite question, "Will you partake of refreshments?" which is as empty and void as a Chinese invitation, and throws the choice of acceptance on the guest. One is. the living soul of 6peech, th? other a mere dead formality. Detroit Free Press.
