May paid a mothods in use and ascertain what the mission of the commtssion. There could Lo no more beautiful soot for atcheries than on tho plateau overlooking the Platto river near South Bend, with the valley sweeping away in the horizon's rim. The day was perfect, ust such o day ttiat inspired Henry ward secher to speak of *'Octover woods, October thoughts, October musings.” The autumual colors, brown, sicnua, red, gave a touch of brightness to the landscape that changed the wholo face of the country from the spect it wore but a short month before. Cunning nature was at her very best, the voluptuous lullaby of the autumn fields making evervthing drowsy, while the clear, fathomless blue of the sky overhead, the silver waters of the Platte at one's feet, the location of tho made the mise en s ne one of cralty be guilemont. Pere, amid the most pastoral scenery ifn Nebraskn, the fish commission has located the cheries on fitty-two acres of ground and supplied the place with comforuablo buildings, having twenty two ponds with five stone dams all fed by a magnificont, cool, TunuINgE Stream of water brought from the hills beyond. The bhatchery puilding, constructed for the future a3 well astho present, has a capacity of hatehing 50,000,000 annually, their average output being 16,000,000 a year. The methoas used in the propagation af fish are particularly interesting o the mnimrod, who in the spawn of the trout, bass, croppics, sces futuve days of.exquisite pleasuro landing tae finny tribo or pluying them with fly and minnow. 1u tho butehery building there is a very long reservoir provided with metal crates,” upon which the fish aeposit their spawn, wnd the interstices are so arranged that as the fish grow they drop through the apertures into the water below, where they romain until the sacks on Lho fish are absorbed, then they are taken to thesmaller ponds and gradually the large ponds are searchod, aud then, when the fish aro two or threo incles in length, they are distributed over the waterways of the state adapted pecularly for trout.” The egg of the trout looks for all the world like & medium sized pew, with two bluck spots in the siae, which are the eyes. Later on vou ©an see the fish perfectly outlined in the egg.

MISFIT TITLES, American Life Fall of Men With Mistead Ing Prefises, Thero is, perhaps, nothing so mislead- ing in this world as titles, whother they be conferred upon mon, books or things, As faras the titles of men are concerned, they are more often mislonding than not, says the New York Times. Take the title of general, tor instance. How many men have used this handle to their names for years, who are not only not generals, but who are utterly unfamiliar with the qualities which go to make even a high private a thing of beauty! These men are indige- nous to the American goil.just asthe un- loraly lords and earls are counted among the social flora and fau of England. In Europe unruly vulers are oftener met with than not. The head admiral of the American navy is only rear admiral, and thencarest approach we have to a full general in this country is a liouten- ant genoral. The staffs of the various govornors of our various states swarm th captains, colunels and generals who ave in reality neither generals, colonels nov captains, and it would be impossiblo to throw a brick into any gathering of Ohio peoplo without hitting a governor who never governed and who never will govern, The majors who are unfamiliar with gunpowder are in the majority in Virginia, just as the poets who never wroto a line of pootry infest New Iing- land. In literature how muny novelists wo have whose work is not novel; how many humorists there are who write nothing lining that ean be conside humorous even by their own familie In the household allens are called do- mestics and in the restaurants it is the guest who is the waiter. In tho world of manufacture and commeres plebeian persons who neaver work are dubbed Knights of Labor: walking delegates, so-called, » about in carringes and certain favored individuals whoare in no sense grand, who are musters of no trade and who toil not,are called “Grand Master Workmen,” To come from men to hooks, we find quite as many singular misapplications, There is a volume—and a fine work it is —called *“I'he Discovery of Ame by John Fiske.” Muc this cminent his. id delightful master of linglish admired, the public cannot be to acknowledge its indebted- ness to him for work done by Columbus. A popular periodical is known us *'So and So’s New Monthly Magazine,” when as a matter of fact it is the oldest magazine now published. An Englishman whose name is Farmer, and who writes like one, is respousible for a ook which he is pleased to term ‘‘Americanisms,” made up to n considerable degree of what might better be ealled **Victorian Vulgavisms,” and so on. The list stretches out to an almost endless e tent. . All men seem to be more or less in- focted by tho same diseuso—even so intelligent a man‘as Mr. Andrew Lang TRAINING BRAIN AND HAND is one of its victims, if the advertised title of a paper by hun in a current magazine is a symptom of the malad How Mr. Lang should have the temerity to write a paper callod **Homer by Andrew Lang” is not clear. One might as well expect another essay on the subject of **Shakespenre by Ignatius Dennelly.” Surely Mr. Lang cannot hope to deceive even Chicago in the matter of the authorship oi Homer. Mr. Kugene Field would effectually put a stop to that. He knows the truth if tho rest of Chicago does not. It is indeed deplorable tendency and countoracting influences should be set to work at once. e e e CHIMMIE'S GOT A JOB. He Parulyzes the Bowery With a Now Harness.

It is a ftact gouerally conceded that in the development of young men and women ueither the miud nor muscle should be dis ciplined at the expense or to the detriment of the other. IKxerciso of the physical being is absolutely necessary to insure a perfoctly sound and healthy mental being. It is also conceded that exerclse of a practi- calj nature, with thought and purpose in it, is of more value taan that which is taken simply for the sakeof recreation, providing there isan carnestness and willingness on the part of the participant suffcient to mako the work really enjoyable. With these facts itis very easy to under- stand one of the purposes of the German emperor when he recently struck from the curriculum of the government schools Greek uud Latin and introduced lu their stead a vigorous and extended course i manual trafuing. The emperor believes in asystem of education that will prepare young peoplo for the stern duties of lifo in the great industrial ranks as well as among the more highly educated. The manual training school idea has been gaining ground not ouly in Kuarepe but in the United States quite rapidly during the past ter years, Prominent educators are beginning to feel the necessity of teaching young people to do something rathor thun to depend for a livelibood ana w useful piaco in the world upon learning what other people havo doue. Ncbraska has oneof the most complete manual training schools in this count It is the Haish school at Lincoln, teing a branch of the Wesleyan-university, and Omaba has madea boginning in tuis airection of which there is no veason to feel ashamed and which has already furnished encouraging results. The Owmaha manual tratning school is in the basement of tno High school building,. It occupies two largo rooms and the aemands upon the school are so great thac it ought to have three times the space and facilities that it now has, Tue first class in the morning was just golug to work when the reporter visited the 00l the other day and it being the small- est class of the aay there was an excelient opportunity afforded to cbserve the indi- viaual work of every membern the cluss. Some of them were in their first year's work in that department and others were doiug the jsecond vear's work. They came in eager! went direct to the drawers and benches, for which they carried keys, took out their tools and began work as methodi- cally as a force of veceran carpenters. Tneve were threo girls in the class and tho reportor naturally began to wonder what sort of a figure they would cut. with a hawmer aod saw. But the giris took hold of the tools with as fbuch confizence and ease as nay of the boys. “1 snall have to go to the lumber room and saw a board ths first thing,” remarked ono young miss as she picked up her saw; “would you lika to see me saw a board ! o réporter followed the youug carpen- tress into the lumber room, thinking. por- haps, that ne wouli be obliged to call a surgeon 1o set & joint OF sew up o ganing wound before tho young lady succeeded in cutting off a board, but he was very much mistaken, Sho first selected the kind of timber she wanted, and then taking a board from the pile she sawed off the length she wanted with per- fect ease and in & manuer that would have mads some men calling thom- selves carpenters feel ashamea of them- selves. trouble as 1 did at first.” Mr. John K.
