FIDE IN EMPTY STORE
Belonged to D. L Ford and was
Insured- Origin lot Isown.5
Last ol'htat about 9:80, the
1 iamily of D. L. Ford was awak
ened by ooise ot tire burning1 a
m vacant store adjoining their
residence on Border street. In
spite ot the very bad condition
P of tbe streets, the fire depart-
ment broke the record in its
quick response to tbe alarm. In
a abort time two strong streams
^ were playing on tbe blase, which
had tbe effect ot checking tbe
headway of tbe tire and finally
V extinguishing it.
Tbe way tbe tire started is a
mystery to tbe Ford family, as
:■ well as every one else who knows
’ of the circumstances. Tbe indi-
f cations aretbatit started in the
rear of the building and probab-
ly on the inside. * The building
* as far as known was locked and
ft had been for some time. There
cau be no reason assigned by
** Mr. Ford as to how the tire
could Dave originated. "It is su «*-
gested by those who were pres
ent last night, that some malici-
ous person set the building on
Are.
Tbe loss bas not been estimat-
* mated, but it is understood that
there was insurance enough to
cover the damage sustained.

Philadelphia. Pa., Dec. 29.
Unless the unexpected happens,
what promises to be one of the
most stubborn struggles tbe in
dustrial world has seen tor some
time will be inaugurated next
week. It will be between the
National Fouodrymen’s associa
tion and tbe Iron Molders' Un-
ion of North America. The diff-
erences between tbe two organ-
izations have been getting more
and more pronounced for sever-
al months, and all {hopes ot a
peace adjustment have practi-
cally been abandoned, as tar as
a national agreement concerned,
under which tbe two worked
harmoniously tor several years.
The break came with the break-
ing off the agreement by tbe
employers, as is asserted by the
union.
This city will be the battle-
ground ot tbe tight. Last month
the molders and the coremakers
of several shops i||ere struck iu
an effort to obtain an advance
ot 25 cents a day on the core-
makers’ minimum. The uuton
asserts that tbe question of
wages had oeen under consid-
eration for over two years, but
that in 1908 an agreement was
reached between representatives
oi the foundrymen’s association
and tbe uuioo winch conceded
be desired advance, the same
to go into effect on June4, 1904.
This agreement, it is said, was
abrogated by the loundrymen
because ot alleged violation by
the molders, but it Is also said
that the foundrymen refused to
grant a cooterence at which the
matter could be investigated.
• The promised ad vance was not
given. The uifo’o, however,
refused to bre^k off negotiations
and continued to work under
the old scale, continuing tbeir
efforts to secure an adjustment.
At the session if the National
Foundrymen's association reso-
lutions were adopted indorsing
the position of tbe Philadelphia
employers, and, as the interna-
tional union has indorsed the
position taken by its local, and
as there seems to be no disposi-
tion on the part of the employ-
ers to grant a conference, the
officers of the union look for a
contest that is likely to spread.
Following tbe policy it bus out
lined for tbe conduct of the
struggle, and realizing that the
tight will quite likely develop
into a national affair, tbe union
has decreed that none

REJOICE to see manual training recognized aa part of the
liberal education. No one can doubt that it has played a
large part in placing this country in ita present position. And
America cannot afford to overemphasize ANY ONE FEA-
TURE of ita education. It cannot attain its industrial an-
premaey unless its lads are taught skill in handicraft as well aa in let-
ters. Americana most not have the narrowness, the provincialism, of
being able to do only one tiring. They must be able to turn their
handa to ANYTHING that cornea into tbeir natural workshops.
Did we ever ask ourselves who among the founders of this country
were the typical Americans f I will contrast two. Take Alexander
Hamilton. He was not a typical American. He was a transplanted
European. But Benjamin Franklin was. He was of the type of
American ORDAINED TO DEVELOP MANKIND.
Why ? Until 1890 this country had a frontier, and the real test of
fitness was to live on that frontier, where there was nothing that men
did not invent for himself and nothing that he did not discover for
himself. No one was better fitted to live on a frontier than Franklin.
He was able to invent a pomp and at tbe same time to foimjl the
American Historical society. It takes a typical American to achieve
things of that sort
THE TYPICAL AMBRICA>f CAN PLAY THE PART OP BOSS OP
THE GANG IN ANY WORK THAT IS TO BE DONE.
No country in the world can leas afford to have too particularized
education. It must have education fit for not only a geographical
frontier, but also an intellectual frontier, where new countries are also
opening up.
There is a lot of nonsensical talk about education. People too
often ask of some branch of education: “Is it practical! Can it be
used in business »” ALL EDUCATION IS PRACTICAL You
want your boys to go into the gymnasiums to build up their muscles,
but you don’t ask them if they intend to do the double trapeze with
their business partners in their offices.
What we want is THE INTELLECTUAL ATHLETE—one
who will tackle and overcome practical things in the world.
AND WHAT WE NEED ARE SCHOOLS WHERE THERE IS A
COMPLETE 8Y8TEM AND NO MUSCLE OP BODY OR MIND IS
LAID IDLE AT THE EXPENSE OF ANOTHER.

AN EARLY MORNING FIRE.

A Tool House, Bdoafkf Is Silas l
Wat Counted.
A tool and plunder house oo
John sod Fourteenth street,
ownid by Silas Depwe, a well
known contractor, caught fire
tbio morning at about two thir-
ty o’clock and was entirely
consumed together with ita con-
tents, consisting of a large
amount of tools Of ill kinds,
about a thousand pounds of
pork, g lot ot surplus furniture
and plunder, tbe value of which
has not been estimated, bat will
• mount to several hundred dol-
lars.
After a great effort a tire
alarm was turned iu, but as tbe
location of the fire was not iu
reach ot a fire plug, tbe borfii
wagen did not make the run.
The building oo fire was adjoin
ing the reslience of Mr. Depwe
aad it required a heroic fight to
pave tbe home from being con
•utned also. Every member of
tbetamily, as well as a number
of nearby neighbors eogaged in
the fight against the flames,
which resulted in tbe saving, tt
tbe residence.
There was no insurance on
the property destroyed.
Mr. Depwe states that be has
already'commenced to rebuild
his tool bouse, he has more

Indianapolis, Xod., Dec.
Members ot tbe executive
mittee of the Central Passenger
association ca me to Indianapolis
today at the invitation of Gov-
ernor Hanty to conter with hint
on the two cent mileage move-
ment. Members of the committee
believe they will be able to
point put to tbe Governor valid
reasons why bis demand for a
flat two-cent s mile rate for
2000 mile tickets, good on trains,
should not be complied with,
aod bow sneb a rate would not
be for tbe benefit of the people
as a whole. They say it would
inevitably result in a curtail
meat of train service and the
abolition of special rates of
every kind in tbe state, and
would raise tbe average rate
from 1.6 cents per mile toScents.
Members ot tbe commercial
traveler’s organisations will
be present at tbe conference to
argue in opposition to tbe state-
ment of the railroad passenger
officials.
