T0 TEACH THE CO-EDS SOME OF THE LOST AATS University Young Women Are to Be Trained in Domestic Work. ST Academy to Be Founded Where Stu- dents Will Be Given Courses in Sewing and Cooking Ex- clusively. AR BERKELEY, July L.—Under the name of “The Academy of Lost Arts” a school has been founded in Berkeley for the uni- versity co-eds. The academy will not at- tempt to teach the coliege girls the way to make Tyrian purple or the method of manufacturing old Damascus blades, but it is to instruct them in the domestic arts, lost arts to many of the young ladles of the university. Through the generosity of Mrs. Phebe A. Hearst the school has come into exist- ence. A house has been secured at 2632 Haste street, where a class in the art of sewing will be started when college opens. The number of young lady students in this new course has been limited to twenty and already the ciass is fuil. As yet the plans are in an experimental stage, but if all goes well next term will see a cooking class added to the school. The sewing class is not only for the pur- ose of teaching the young ladies, vastly | earned in ancient lore, the use of the nee- | dle, but is to give assistance to those who | may wish it. Twenty cents an hour will be paid for plain sewing, but as the skill of the worker increases the amount of pay will increase. Samples of all kinds of la- dies’ and_children's garments have been made in New York, and it is from these | that the college women will work. The | institution will probably be self-support- | ing when once fully started, as orders for | making clothing will be taken. | Miss~ Nellie Clough, an expert seam. stress, has been secured to instruct the class, 'which will be open at all hours of the day. Visitors will be allowed in the rooms to inspect the sewing, but no one | will be admitted to the class while the girls are at work. Miss A. M. Hicks will superintend the school SCHOOL OF DOMESTIC SCIENCE TO RESUME OAKLAND, July 15.—The fall term of the school of domestic sclence conducted under the direction of the ladies of the Oakland Club will commence on August 15.

That They Were Taken to the City Receiving Hos- pital. SR ST. LOUIS, July 15.—Dynamite was ex- ploded under a Transit car in North St. Louis to-night and four passengers were injured. A Suburban street car, the only union line in the city, accidentally ran into a strikers' 'bus to-night and injured twelve occupants, two seriously. As a Union line car on the Lee avenue division of the Transit Company was pass- ing the intersection of Twenty-second and Bremen avenues at 11 o'clock to-night the wheels struck a charge of dynamite. which exploded with terrific force., The car was blown from the track. the floor- ing and seats were rent asunder and all dows were demolished. There were sengers on the car, two of whom, four pa Edward English and Molie Shez. were s0 badly injured that they had to be taken to the City Hoepital for treatment. The explosion was by far the worst that has | occurred on the lines of the Transit sys- tem since the inauguration of the strike. A car on the urban Company’s Web- ster division ran into a wagon loaded with icnickers returning from Forest Park at Lindell boulevard and Sarah street. The wagon was broken into splinters and the horse was crippled. The car, going at a rapid rate, struck the rear wheel the wagon sideways and spilled the occu- pants.

YEAR-OLD BABY DRINKS AMMONIA AND LIVES AKLAND, July 15.—The year- old son of Mr. and Mrs. Dell O Snow of Newark drank deep- 1y from a bottle of ammonia vesterday and nearly died before a physician could be sum- moned. The infant will live, much to the amazement of those who were interested in the episode. The baby unaccountably got hold of the bottle and before the mother could seize the vial had swallowed a considerable quantity of the fluid. At first thought Mrs. Snow believed the baby had taken car- bolic acid. Dr. Emerson, who at- tended the child, has his patient out of danger.

One-sided as the question may seem to Northern view, it cannot be denied that there was a real and earnest conviction upon the side of slavery also. The Southerners felt with growing bitter- ness that the North was constantly tak ing unfalr advantages.

To the North, on the other hand. a great moral question was at stake. Slavery was {life, To check its further spread was the | first duty of every man who loved his country and believed in the law of right- eousness.

The time had now come when every possible effort must be made to ren- | der effective the moral earnestness, the | selt-sacrificing love of freedom and of | country which had swept through the North like a prairie fire at this latest lation of political good faith. nation's death struggle was at hand and for it the Kansas dispute cieared the way and marshaled the opposing forces. The First Territorial Government. Kansas then was to be slave or free, as “popular sovereignty”’ should determine. Pro-slavery immigrants were first in the fleld and were able to elect the first dele- gate to Congress in 1854. The first Federal Governor, Reeder, a pro-slavery Demo- crat, arrived soon after and ordered an election for a Legislature. This took plade in March, 1855. The census taken the month before reported nearly 30 legal voters in the Territory, but the election returns showed 547 votes cast for the pro- slavery candidates and 1 for others. Large bands of men crossed the Missouri line on elcetion day, voted and returned to Missouri by night. The free-State im- migrants, who had been coming in larger and larger bands for actual settlement since the summer of 1854, naturally de- clined to recognize a legislative body so chosen. But the forces of slavery, sup- ported by the Federal administration at Washington, held their advantage and persisted in casting the color of lawless- hess upon every act of the free-soil set- tlers, whom they constantly charged with resistance to “the constituted authorities™ of the Territory. The Legislature took extreme pro-slavery measures, adopting all Missourf’s slave laws and adding some fifty statutes, im- posing the death penaity for offenses against slavery and requiring every of- ficer, candidate, judge and voter (if chal lenged) to take oath to support the fugi- tive slave law. The Topeka Constitution. Under such a_government there was no place for the Northern immigrants with anu-slavery sentiments, and the free- State men took immediate steps to have Kansas admitted as a State, without waiting for an enabling act of Congress. Such lack of formality was not unpre- cedented. _California had come in thus, and so had otner Territories. A constitu- tional convention, attended only by the iree-State settlers, met at Topeka in Oc- tober, 1855, and formulated a State con- stitution which prohibited slavery. This, having been submitted to popular vote, was adopted by the free-State party, the pro-slavery party gnoring the whole pro- teeding. A Lesislature, a full set of State officers and a representative to Conzress were also elected, and Kansas applied to Congress for admission. A vill admitting the new State, with the Topeka constitu- tion, passed the House of Representatives. but was rejected by the Senate. From the territorial government which President Pierce was _determined to maintain Kansas free-State settlers could expect only persecution: a government they must have, and what better could they do than to stand by that which they had estab- lished. even though it was refused Federal sanction by the partisan administration at Washington? So the State Legislature met in July. 1556, only to be dispersed by Federal soldlers, acting under orders from Washington.- President Pierce had pledged “the internosition of the whole power of the general government as well to maintain the laws of the Territory as tnose of the Union.™ ‘After repeated failures to put the Free State government into operation—the last effort in January, 1851. having been brought to naught by the arrest of the f the Legislature by Federal officers—the Topeka constitution was finally abandoned. Civil War in Kansas. Meantime the Territory had drifted into a state of anarchy and desultory war- fare. ‘%fle may feel surprised that, con- sidering the ;l;)v‘x’mble state of affairs, in ence and bl lo: Ftdea, but the vear 1856 was memorabis for the great suffering endured by the people of Kansas. The two governments and their sugrorten\ were mutually re- == d ving each other.

On the other hand, large numbers of trained, successful business men in the North were able quickly to transfer their interests to a new locality. Farmers, me- chanics, merchan: could follow their callings in the new settlement, and thers was an abundance of eager young man- hood seeking avenues to fortune and use- fulness for whom Kansas offered an at- tractive fleld. And so the Free State pop- ulation gained steadily over that from ths South, and by the end of the year 156 the New Emgland Emigrant Ald Society felt that its work was done, its battls won. There were four men for lora in Kansas to every one for slavery. Note—Study No. XIV will be concluded on Monday, July 23 Degree of Honor.
