Burglars.
Two tramps or burglars were heard by
Mrs. Thomas Graham in the lower story of
the house about iiins o'olocK-at night while
she ivas ap stairs. It seems that the doors
had n-t heen very securely fastened, Mr.
Graham bad not returned from down town
and whe:i Mr. Grrutem heard the intruders
talking she did noo at first fully realize the
situation, she called to them and could not
get any answer win e they still kept talking
to each other. At last she opened the win
dow and called t. her t'ather-in-1 iw, Dr.
Jriham, who live I c-Q the same block and
who happened to be out doors at the time,
lie and Gliarl Alexander who was also
there hurried over i :uc found the burglars
had disappeared in the darkness. Whethe.
"they were after something to eat or for
plunder it seems dii'icult to tell.

Cash versus Credit.
Knowing it to be for my best interests,
and believing it to be for the best interests
of my customers, I shall continue to sell for
cash only. The following are a few of my
reasons: First Taking no risks I can
afl'ord to sell at a lower rate of profit.
Second I will not be at the expense of
keeping a book-keeper (seventy-five dollars
a month.) Third 1 will not have to spend
a week out of every month trying to make
collections. Fourth I will have time to
give more attention to my business and
consequently give better satisfaction to my
customers, and finally I solicit only cash
trade. J. M. Nolan.

Judge MacArthur calls attention to one
of the schools of France, calied the Munici
pal College of Apprentices, which was
founded at the expense of Paris, and did
not begin until 1872. No pupil is admitted
before the age of 13, and instruction lasts
three years, one-half of the time bsing given
to schooling and tbe other half to practical
work.
A iother notable school in Europe for
manual craft is at Besaucon. This is a
technicii school, founded at the expense of
the city, aud especially devoted to watch
manufacture. Besancon manufactures four
tifths of all the watches sold in France, and
the object of the school is to thoroughly
teach their children their trade. They are
taught not only to turn and temper metals,
ami to make the several parts of a watch,
but to manipulate atoms as small as the
grain- of saud that drops through the hour
gia-sr and their technical education in
cludes everything leariug upon the work,
5uch as arithmetic, mensuration, geography,
mechanical drawing, geometry and compo
sition. This school is supported by the
public taxation of the town of Besaucon,
whose people understand that they can only
keep their trade by education iu watch-making.
Besancon is not far from Switzerland,
and was an old iloman city.
Another notable school Judge MacArthur
refers to is that of the Christian Brothers in
Paris, a scries of buildings surrounding a
plav-ground. The students go in at 8 or 9
years, and at 13 are put to a trade. In the
mean time they are instructed in all elemen
tary branches, in architectural and mechan
ical drawing, both ont'ine aud shade, free
hand drawing, the rudiments of design, and
when at 13 they g to trades under the same
geueral roof they gild, carve in wood or
stone, make trunk, shoes, clothes; they
weave, bind book?, make all kinds of
instrumental, musical, mathematical and
astronomical, and in all there are 130
in the institution who give two hours in
the workshop and the rest to the"- boohs.
They pay about 20 cents a day for board,
lodging aud instruction, and those unable to
pay the whole amount are assisted out of a
charitable fund. When these boys come
out of school they not only know as much
as any of our boys from the public schools,
but thoy have a t.-ade rigbain hand. Among
their teachers are practical mechanics and
workmea, aud the third year the pupil
piok3 out that which is adapted to his
talents.
Another school of manual labor which is
referred to is that at Cruzot, where are the
most important iron works in France. This
formerly poverty-stricked vi'lae had about
become ruined iu the iron trade, when the
Schneider family took possession of it. They
had teachers in elementary studies, natural
philosophy, chemistry of me: als, modeling,
drawing, and when they found ?ny pupil
e'lpecial'y hue or improving they sent him
away to the technical schools and brought
him back to assist in the management. The
rest of the boys are drafted from the school
into the works some as plain workmen,
others as accountants and draftsmen. It is
said there is not a man in this school amont;
the mechanics employed in the construction
of engines who could not make an accurate
drawing of the work on which he is en
gaged. The little town has shot up to be
well-built, well paved, .vith churches,
schools, markets and 24,000 finely -educated
aud sclf-respectiug people.
There is a technical school at Limoge3,
where works in enamel are made and have
been made for a great many years. Just
previous; to the American revolution kaolin
was discovered near by and porcelain works
established, und Limoges ware is known all
over t1 world. This ware continued to
inrX-e until in 18o'2 a bright minded man
uamad Adrien Dnboncbe took his ovn
money and established a school, and the
tow n also grouted a subvention to it. He
then established free town school to teach
the fine arts as applied to the industrial
arts, and gave them his personal attention
and supervision. Consequently Limoges
has risen to become a huge place, the pro
eelain manufacture has become immense,
t'-e private habits of the people wonderfully
improved, aud now that school is called the
National School of the Deoorati' e Art, and
is open to both boys' aud girls. They have
soecial courses for drawing for all traue
purposes, pottery, enameling and engraving.
Boys must be over 13 years of age on enter
ing, and girls over 12. The tuition is
free.
The French have besides three great
schools to train superintendents and foremen
of workshops, and for artisans, located at
Chalons, at Angers and at Aix, each with
300 pupils admitted upon competitive ex
animations, all between the ages of 15 or 17
and they live in the school building. Seven
hours of labor a day are devoted to practical
instruction in four workshops, namely, in
carpedtry and modeling, foundry, forging
and adjusting.
