A cholera-proof hos of bli ; bone ) DerkEliIro stock , which was brought to Tennessee from nbrcad before the war , died near Kalcon , In that state , aged 33 years. For twenty-live years the hog had ciot been sick , but Int- tcrly It had been toothless and Its owner had the food for It boiled. The profits of Its progeny had paid for a farm , and Its owner burled It on bis place and net up memorial stones to mark ' .be grave. ' "Undo" Jnko Iloss , nn old colored man who has been peddling coal In the IJast find for a number of yearo , was n victim of yes terday's storm , i relates the Louisville Courier-Journal. Uncle .rake's horse was blown down nt Floyd and I/afayotto streets by a strong gust of wind , and tlio poor old animal's neck got under 'its body nnd was broken. Undo Jake's horse was probably never a very valuable animal In his best dayu , which bed passed long ago , but lie was Uncle Joke's malfintay In Ills business and bad some good points about him that a bat could bo 1mm ; on. The grief of the old man over the loss of bis .horse ; was pitiful. Largo tears rolled down bis furrowed nnd grimy cheeks , and ho refused to bo con soled.

The silence In the chamber of death was broken only by the suppressed sobs of the relatives of the dying woman , wbo wcro gathered round the bed. No ono was mov ing about tbo room , nor wa any ono In the neighborhood of'tho clock ; but na Mrs , Fan non drew her -lost breath and her gentle- spirit began Its flight across the dark rlvor the weight of the faithful old clock fell with a crash , the door flow open and tbo hands utopped. Or. Fannon did not roach Eldora until after liU mother's death , and therefore - fore did not witness this Hlngtilar occur rence , but -tho feat was vouched lor by nil who were present , An elder brother took tlio 'old clock to his homo and will keep It Just as U Is with IW hands ever pointing to the hour of its former owner's death , TO CUIU'3 COIn IX OXR DAY Take Laxative Dromo Qulnlno Tablets.

STRONG PLEA FOR HIGHER EDUCATION Jtoro nml 1lclpr OallCKPs Iniitriul of 1'cu < irlIMV the Youth of Corcu Arc TuiiRhl Ktlu- ciitlniiiil A'olc.i. "Is Our Educational System Top-Hwvy ? " Is the question propounded by IJIllott I'lowcr In the North 'American Hovlcw. J nd ho answers It In the nfllrmiUlvo. His pre mises and conclusions nro vigorously com bated by the SprlnRflcld ( Mass. ) Uopub- llcan. Quoting from .Mr. Flower's paper the statement that "the natlou that given a fair education to all Its people must have a Krcatcr future before It than the ouo that gives a particularly iood ; education to only a proportion of them , no matter how great that proportion may be ; and , consequently , the aim of a country should bo to educate all , " the Republican says : The conclusion that It should bo the nltn of a country to educate nilnmy bo admitted , but the pro mises on which It Is based arc not only fal lacious , but liable to dangerous perversion , ns Is Illustrated In this very nrtlulo. Mr. Flower speaks as though his statement were a matter of common observation , but as a matter of fact there has never boon a na tlou that RHVO a fair education to nil Its people. And here , of course , lofcr- unco Is had not simply to stntc- aupnorli'd school ? , tint to the sum of educa tional cpportunltles. The Athenians , -who nro hell up as an example of enlightenment , educated only their aristocracy. The moJ"tti countries which have made an effort at uni versal education h ive so far been content with reducing the percentage of Illiteracy which Is a very dlffeicnt tlilug. In fact , we shall have to attain a vuctly Improved social order before what can Justly be called "a fair education" can bo put within the reach of all , or rather crammed down the throats of nil , which Is essential If all arc to bo educated. Hut Is a leveling of educational work for the acceleration of such a result desirable ? Or to revett to Mr. Flower's way of puttlOR It , Is It true that n nation ( living only a fair education lo all Its people would have n greater future than one In which a l.tn.e > proportion of the people are able to attain a. particularly goad education ? Greater how ? In achievements of Intellect ? Would 100- 000,000 halt educated men match the achieve ments of 1.000 scholars In science nnd phil osophy ? In art and culture ? \\V 1mve al ready seen the debasing Influence of the invasion of a multitude of half educated uu- tliors and artists. In art we eon hardly hope to aiii'pasvi ' "the glory that was Greece. " Such n nation of partly olucntel men tn3lit ! flourish In commerce , It might be forniliKtblo In war. en the reasoning that the war of 1870-1 was won In the Prussliin schools , but It could hardly hope for a future BO glorlcus oa the past of the nations tl.ot have been ically nrrot and admirable. Tlio truth Is that our fault lies rather In ( ho opposite direction. It Is only within Iho last dooide that our universities have offered opportunities for the highest cul- tnro and the most advanced research at all comparable lo thrse . .of Europe. Wo arc jarely beginning 'to escape the reproach : hat America Is a country where every one i'is a mouthful of education and no one can ttt a square meal. We uccJ to1 expand our educational pyramid , not by trunratlng it Horizontally , hut by expanding Its base. It is certainly very far trim being top-heavy- Wo may have too many colleges , but not too many opportunities for collegiate training. It Is wrong , however , to disparage , the work of small colleges as Mr. Flower dees , because of their poverty. Often their work Is moat useful , and gives educational opportunities lo many who -woulJ otherwise 'he deprived or It. Hut the needless multiplication of In- ofliclcnt Icccl > jud denomluat onal schools In regions already well supplied must iimleo the iudlclous grieve. The support of higher education by chance an-J eoftcn freakish bequests naturally results cither in waste fulness , as comjv.red with 11 well-ordered system of state education such r.s u numb'-- of the western states have adopted , or In such con-sjrvttlsm and social oxcIfaUoiich'j p.s have deprived Oxford and Cunibddgc * of much c.f their utility. But we cannot , with Mr. Flower , regret the gre.it gifts made by millionaires to uni versities , or wish to sec them transferred I to lower schools. It Is a wiser philanthropy j to give the luxuries and lot people earn ] ! | the necessities. There la a wide difference j I between a free public library or picture gallery - i lory and n free soup house. The mipuort of i ho best po iblo common schools Is the business of the community as a social or-1 ganlzatlon ; it la Just as well not to get Into ! I the habit of ic-inlng on inwivlduul outer- ' prlso and philanthropy. And it must also bo remembered that It Is far easier to got public support for plain , practical ( -choollng than for the recondite university work which appeals only to scholars. The time may come when the community can tuku advanced as well as alcmoiitary education Into its own hands.

A correspondent of the Chicago Itecord writes : Of what then does the education of n Corcan youth consist ? Wo may begin by oiling of what It does not consist. In the Irst place , there la no fidonec of irmthe- nutloa. .Most joutlis know the multiplica tion tableup to 100. but they ccrnot do the simplest sum without going through a com- illcated preens , or by the use of the aljacun. To multiply sixteen by twelve , the Corcuii would place n stick or pebble on the ground to represent ten , then another a llttlo way off to represent live rod nnotlier to repre sent ono ; this makca Hlxtecn in all. Then 10 multiplied by twelve by putting twelve sticks for each one already plucod. Then 10 take ? up ten of the * sticks in tana' place and puts ono down In another place to icp- rc.str.it the hundred , and for each tfto of .ho fives ho pills ono ten and so on until 10 has got IiU 19'i. Arithmetic Is looked upon as being nectiwary ccily for merchants , and no guntlonwn troubles himself to learn t. The only way Corcans otudy geography s by traveling and ticelng the country lor tbomsclvrs. Tills , It must bo confessed , U the moHt delightful way of eludylng geog raphy , but naturally tlio study la ecu lined to a restricted area. They Irnve no knowl edge of geography outside the limits of their own country. Natural aclences are utterly mknowii , and after fifty years of diligent study the Coreen still Uilnlm that Hie co- estlal dog swallows the am every time there Is an eclipse , A delightful Indefiniteness - ness runs through all their menial pro- censes. Most of them never have to plan ihead to make onda meet , or If they do mvo to , they would rather let the cmU lly ooso than make them' meet by ouch a BOII- ! mrrowlng process us u close arithmetical calculation , uCorcan once was asked the following luestlon : If you should start from hero to il orrow morning at the ruto of three in lira an hour and travel ton hours a day , until you reach Fusan , and , waiting there a week , cturncd at the naniu rate , when would you get back ? lie wnu all at sea , but ufiur a moment's thought ho answered with a tocio ot conviction : "Somo tlmo next month. " That was all that was necessary for him. A few days one way or the other would make no possible difference. Many a tlmo I have tested the business capacity of the merchants about Seoul , Accosting - costing ono I would cay ; "Mow much for this faoB ? " Ho would answer : "Might cents , " "Hut If I buy a dozen Uow much will they be ? " "Oil , If you want so many as that I shall have to nek 10 cents apiece for them. " This Is the etylo of answer I have re ceived over and over again. Hero again we ECO that they pay attention to small things and let the isreat ones go. The Urgent na tive gtoro In Corca Is not much more tbsa ten or twelve foot square , and In each one ot thorn there Is wily A small stock of goods , 3 that If you want to buy any quan tity the merchant will have to run across thu street and borrow some to piece It out. In the brtit stores there nro no windows or cnsos to show off tlio goods. In fnat , you would not know II WAS a otoro unless told sd. You outer a silk store and yj ' 'Show mo ft piece of red silk. " The merchant will go to n llttlo closet , opcti the door n crack and draw out a single roll. It may be A tlamlng scarlet or n dirty magenta , and If you object to It ho Is as likely AS not < o nay : "Well , If that does not suit you I have nothing that will , " In order to find Any thing you must know the exact nnmo ot the peculiar shade of color you desire. You need not expect a silk merchant < o hand down six or seven roll * at oneo for you to handle nnd criticise. The universal rule Is small sales nnd huge profits , which shows that commercially they ro narrow visional and lack the breadth anil daring which have brought Japan to the front to rapidly of late jtars. The ono great object of study In Oorca la the use ot the Chlnrao character and the nrt of composition. Wo smllo when wo think of A man spending twenty years In learning to wrllo Chinese correctly , but wo nro likely lo go tew far In this. In n cer tain Bruno-the study of the Ch.ciesp ttirtructur Is an education In Itself. To bo sure , n man does not acquire n bread K-nowledgn of fnct , llli stock of " " "general Information" M very limited , but the mental discipline acquired Is not tintlko that which the study of mathe matics affords. Very few college men over flnd use for their oDiilo sections or calculus or trigonometry after graduating excepting In so far as the study of these has developed mental power which can bo applied to other things. So with the ctoso study of Chltmiej It undoubtedly ( lovelorn mental power , dis ciplines the memory , trains the faculty of nlco discrimination and docs much to supply a , man with that mewl Important factor In education mentnl concentration. The fault with -the study of the Chinese ) character lies In Its tendency toivnnl nrtlil. clnlty. Wo may compare It with that period of Kngllsh literary history when polish was the first requisite , thu period of which 1'opo and Dryden were * the best representatives. The careful balancing of periods , the n'co ' adjustment of words In A word , form over ruled everything else. That period cannot bo 'better ' characterized than by the words of the poet "Wordsworthwho " , hlmmir. did per haps the most to Inaugurate healthier style , when bo npcaks of the mail who would "peep and totanlzo upon his mother's ' grave. " The Corcans put It matlyVo'tnw : may cat out the lirart unnoticed , but a thorn beneath the fingernail t'pinnnds In stant attention. " In other words the study of Chinese has the- tendency to routine a man to the minutiae , the fine- details wlillo the largei * and grander and more aii.ulIK.int facts pass unnoticed. i'Mlly of \ elmiHltntilpn , Charter day comes this week r.n 1 IV ex ercises iiroinl.se to be or more tli.-vn usual In tel cst.
