I Tbe first evening high school for women to bo I .resulted In thl city open evening. I for everal rear John Jaaper, Citr Superln- - I ttndint of Bchools, and tha member of tho I Board of Kducatlon aw and to ked of tha I necessity of such an Institution; but aa tha I lwtood they could do jothtng. They were not I tbe only people who advocated an eTsnlng high I school for women. It Inquiries and Interest I guj be taken as evidence, girl and women were I n more anxious that one should be provided. I lluceth siUbllthment of such a school was I determined upon by the Board of Education H Bnr graduates of the publlo schools of this I and other cities, girls who haro never had a I chance to graduate, women who had to giro up I their studies and are now employed In offices H and shops, and others who have struggled to H educate themselves, hare been asking who are I tllclbleto attend ths school, what Is required I (or admission, what they may study, how the I school Is to be run, and other questions that H show a lire Interest. H The new srhool will be held lu Grammar H School building No. 60, at 211 East Twentieth H street. Miss Kathcrlno Blake is the principal. H It Is believed that before long twenty teachers H will bo needed, but up to this time only half Hj that number havo been appointed. Registration H has been in progress every evening for two H weeks between the hours of 7 and 0:10 o'clock. H Nearly 00 occupants, most of them young HI women occupied in business, havo registered. HI Their ages vnry from 14 to 00 years, and some re married. One applicant wanted to know if S er husband couldn't come, too, and was quite I disappointed when told that it would be tmpos- - llble to admit him. I Any girl over 10 years of age is eligible to at-- HJ tend tbe school, provided she can pass the nec-- Hj susary examination in reading, spelling, googra- - Hi phy. grammar, and arithmetic through common Hi ana decimal fractions and thcirapplicatlons. It Hi la further required that each pupil shall show Hi special fitness in such subjects as shall be fun- - HI damental to the subject or subjects of study Hi that she m ty solrct. There Is an exception to sV ihu ml,- - which makes it possible for ctrls under Hi 10 who have reached the first grammar grade Hi and present a certificate to that effect to gain Hi admission to the new high school. Hi The subjects to be taught comprise Latin, HJ French. Spanish, German, arithmetic, algebra. He! geometry, and trigonometry, physics, applied Hsi mechanics, bookkeeping, English literature and Hi oratory, phonography, chemistry, anatomy and Hsl physiology, architectural, mechanical, and free- - Hi hind drawing, higher English grammar, Hsl rhetoric and competition, political science Hsl and American history. This curriculum Hsl Is higher in many ways than that of Hsl many colleges for girls and women. The ' indents In ths evening high school for girls 1 are been put on an exact footing with those in the threo evening high schools for male pupils, Hsl and so have the teachers. The latter are to re- - Hjl celve exactly the same pny aa tbe teachers in Hb the male school, and this has enabled the board Hi to secure specialists In nearly all tho branches. HB The school will be conducted exactly like the Hb eventmr high schools for male students. Tbe lew rules have Just been issued. The evening ' f i divided Into two equal sessions, the first be- - glnningat7:lf o'clock and the second ending at HH 9:1.1. Every pup 1 is expected to be in her seat ' HB at 7 o'clock. At 7:1a the first bell will be rung ' HH to announce tbe b ginning of work. The doors HH will be closed at 7:30, and no one coming after HH that time will be permitted to enter a class I HB room. Those who arrive within the previous Hi quarter of an hour will go directly to the Hnl assembly room on the top floor and re- - i HB main there quietly until ordered to Join HH their respective classes. The second bell will HH ring at 8:10. when all work will cease. Tbe HH third bell will ring at 8:15, when all pupils HH scheduled to meet classes on the top floor will HH Pass upstairs promptly and rapidly to their laces in the aasemoly room. Those who have S nished their work will then pass quickly down- - HH stair and out of the building. Students on the HH second floor intending to Join a class on that HH floor are expected to retain their seats until the i HHi others have gone np or down. The fourth bell HH will ring at 8:30. when students on the ton floor HH wanting to Join classes on the lower HI floor will pass down. Those desirous HH of entering another class mm on the same HH floor will take seats In the assembly room and HH will be immediately sent to their class rooms. HH Work will begin again at 8:2.1. and no girl will I HH be permitted to enter a recitation room later HH than 8:30. These regulations Insure quiet in HH the class rooms and economy of time. In case of sHH an overflow In any class those registered first HH" will be admitted. There is little chance of HH trouble in this direction, however, for no ellgl- - HH ble pupil haa ever been turned away from any HH night school in the city, high school or other- - HJ In speaking of the outlook for the new school HH a woman who Is much Interested and was pres- - HH ent every evening while the registration went Hi "The new school is bound to be a great sue- - HH cess, because the applicants are so In earnest. HH They have been very mucn pleased to find that HH both the Board of Education and tbe principal HH and staff of the new school have endeavored to HH furnish every opportunity whereby women can HH extend the education which they have received. HH Most of the applicants havo been young women HH who work hard all day as typewriters, stenog- - HH raphers, shop girls, clerks in offices, and so on. HH But the roll Includes tho names of women in HH everr walk In life, and they have poured In from flnVM t. rtattnrv nn tn 135th street. HH "A representative case, showing how anxious . HH these girls are to gain knowledge, comes to roy ' HH mind. A girl, who Is a clerk in an office In Park HH place, called with a friend, who came with her HH mind made up to register the other evening.

CREDIT GIVEN ON EASIEST TERMS, i LAUXCUKD AT SIXOS'S TAXID. A Mammsth OtMl Cnr neat Ballt ror the 51. T. and Worfolk R-- B. EuziPirru, K. J Sept. 25. The largest steel vessel ever launched from a private shipyard Into New York waters was launched Into Staten Island Sound at high tide this morning from Nixon's Elizabethport shipyard. This was the mammoth oar float built by Lewis Nixon for the Philadelphia, New York and Nor- folk Railroad, ot which Mr. A. J. Cassatt Is President The float la 345 feet long, 47 feet beam, and 13 feet deep. Four car tracks are bolted on the steel deck on iron supports that would extend in a single line for half a mils. Twenty-eigh- t cor weighing 1,000 tons will be the usual load of this float. Elaborate and massive cleats, eyes, and bitts are arranged for towing. Anchors and chains are carried at each end with windlasses and davits for hand- ling. A large boiler develops steam for pumping out ths numerous water-tig- compartments and for working the steam steering engines. A rudder at each end, ot the balanced type. Is actuated by both band and steam gear from the pilot house on top ot the central bridge, which Is built up high enough to permit the cars to go beneath it. The sole pieces ot the float launched y were sawed oft at 7:14, and tbe vessel at once glided easily and rapidly into the stream. There was a distance of only about 100 feet for ber to go after leaving the ways, but the tug having tier held her enough to simply let her nose rest upon the grass on the other side. The anchor had been dropped, and she was held In place till this could be raised, and was then at once token in charge by the tug Erie and brought to the wharf. Over a million and a half pounds of steel are built Into the hull. She has twenty transverse water-tigh- t com- partments so arranged that they can be emp- tied or niled very quickly by steam pumps of great capacity. She leaves for Norfolk at noon on iunday. This float started at the water's edge and extended beyond the limits of the yard out Into the city, so that Elizabeth can say that she pos- sesses a yard capable of building any sized ves- sel. Mr. Nixon took this yard after it had been closed for about two years and rapidly or- ganized a yard force, with which he has been able to launch thirty vessels in as many months to the great benefit of the worklngmen and merchants of New York and Elizabeth.

FOltXALZT UASDED OTEll TO XIIB OITX XESTEItDAT. Haste and Palristle perches and a Hest r Cheering Children Make th Ceremony a riensant One rather Drnnn Sonnds th Kynl ef True American Sentiment. The Recreation Pier at the foot of East Twenty-fourt- h street wa dedicated and for- mally opened to the publlo yesterday afternoon and a great crowd, composed largely of children from the neighborhood, wit- nessed the ceremony. Tbe weather was ns mild a that of a midsummer day, and the sur- face of the river flashed and glittered In the rays of the sun. Although thp speechmaklng did not begin until 4 o'clock the gates leading to the pier were thrown open two hour ear- lier, and Acting Inspector Thompson's squad of 200 policemen were not put to tho necessity of exerting themselves to keep order In the crowd. When the ceremonies wore over Uie white gloves of the blueconts were uniolled, and Inspector Thompson said that not one child had even stubbed lis toe. Th crowd began to arrive as soon as the gates were opened, and during tho interval that preceded the dedication Bandmaster Joyce' twonty-flv- e musicians played aire both sad and gay. Fifteen hundred camp chairs had been provided ror tho Invited guests, and every one of them was occupied when Presi- dent O'Brien of the Dock Board arose In the temporary stand to Introduce Mayor Strong. The seats of the older people were grouped in the eastern end of the pier, while the children sat near the western side ot the stand. "In behalf of the Board of Docks, I now pre- sent this pier to the people of New York for their recreation and enjoyment," said Gen. O'Brien, and then he Introduced Mayor Strong. At the mention of the Mayor's name the chil- dren cheered loudly. The older folks applaud- ed loudly, too, nnd Mayor Btxong looked vastly ""had tho pleasure of being present at the opening of tho Third street plor in July," ho said. T'It was the first enterprise of its kind ever undertaken in this country, and Ita popu- larity and success hnvo made the Irack Com- missioners feel the necessity of continuing th; good work. Hence this pier. The Dock Board ha undertaken to build three moro, but this Is the banner pier of them all, and Its success is a foregone conclusion. "N6w, I had nothing to do with tho building of these piers. The credit belongs entirely to the Dock Commissioners. 1 only patted them on the back and told them to go ahead with tho work. In fact, that's oil I do to any of the boards In the city government. The crowd whooped, and tho Mayor s smile was childlike and hland. That's so," continued the Mayor, "and If they don't do their duty they will be called to account for It In a hurry. "AU these enterprises undertaken for the recreation and amusement of the people will be blessed by the generations to come. It may ba that wo will be nbl to Inclose thi pier with glass and have It heated so that peopl con come here winter evenings and have a little dance. If we do. 111 be deDghted to come down and Join you." The Mayor sat down amid a roar of applause. When the noise had subsided he Introduced Assistant Corporation Counsel John Proctor Clarke, who said he would talk to the children. lie addressed them as citizens of New orlc, and told them how proud they ought to be to lire In such a fine city. When he had finished. ths children cheered for a full minute. The Uav. Father Brann, pastor of St. Ag-nes- Church, was tho next speaker. I con- gratulate our honest, faithful, clsver, and hard- working Mayor on the completion of this beau- tiful pier," ho said. "I particularly congratu- late the Mayor, for, after aU, tho Dock Commis- sioners were only the men selected by him to carry out this work. I have always believed that the capitalist who founds an Institution for the education or the relief of tho poor does more for the preservation of social order than a standing army. The poor emigrants who come here are not to be biamod because they aro tainted with socialism and kindred evils. Tho Governments which oppressed them in their native lands are responsible for that. But when they come to this country and make their homes under our starry flag; when they come to this great free city and see our line streets and aocks; when they come to know Cooper Union and the other great Institution and the purpose for which they were founded, then their ideas change, and the germs of anarchy and socialism begin to decay. "This pier, whose opening we are celebration ws built for the rtch as well as for the n. Tl la nn. nt thA IHBlbJ devised bv PrOYl-- dence to kill oft the microbes of anarchism.' Tho lost speaker was Alderman bllos Oood-ma- n. He directed bis remarks entirely to the children. Among those who were on the stand during tho speechmaklng were Dock Commissioners Einstein and Monks. Major Pllmley, Putnam Dradlee Strowj, and Secretary Terry of tho Dock Board. Illshop Potter, who had accept- ed the Invitation to deliver an address, tele- graphed from Saratoga that ho was too HI to be present. ArcbbUhop Corrhran nnd Bishnp Farley also sent regrets. The Twenty-fourt- h street pier Is tho second of its kind to be opened to the public, and'eon-tract- s for three more areabout to brflet. TheTblrd street pier ha been opened since July, and Its success has surpassed even the fondest hopes of the Dock Commissioners. The Twenty-fourt- h street pier Is 720 feot lone, and It is estimated that It will accommodnte 14.000 persons. Its cost when completed will be more than 4)100,000. It Is the intention of the Dock Commissioners, provided they can get the necessary authority, to Inclose tbe pier in glass and hare it properly heated so that It oan be used all tbe year around Instead of auring the warm months only.' The Park noard now . has under consideration a proposition to stock the pier with flowers and plants, and tho Board of Education will be asked to provide a course ot free lectures for the winter months. 3EXT A "BOMB" TO MBS. MILLER. It Was an Old Plnrod Ont Eleetiio Battery. Evidently (leant In He a Joko. Some one played a cheap Joke upon Mrs. Caroline Miller of 423 East Fourteenth street yesterday afternoon by sending a bundle to her in which was concealed a fake bomb. A small boy, who Is not known to Mrs. Miller, rang ber bell and when she responded he put a package into her hands, saying: " A man so it that to you." Then he ran away, Mrs. Miller was puzzled, but pleased, and taking tbe package into ber rooms undid It, Then sho was astonished and somewhat alarmed. In tho centre of tho numer- ous wrappings Mrs. Miller discovered a thing which any yellow Journalist w ould recognize at once as a deadly bomb. It was a cylinder o zino about seven Inches long nnd threo Inches in diameter, closed with metal at tbe bottom and sealed at tbe top with wax. Out of tho sealed end stuck a round black substance bear- ing a fuse-lik- e cord which was four or live Inches long. As the thing wasn t afire and dldn t seem any more dangerous when it was unwrapped than It had been before. Mrs. Miller didn't faint or have hysterics, but put on ber but and took tho bomb to the East Twenty-secon- street polli e station. Cipu Elbert O. Smith bad seen ' bombs" before. He put this one in a pall of water for a few min- utes and then opened It. Un er the scaling wax was found a lot of powdered carbon In a wrapping of cloth and the centre piece wns a tick of compressed carbon, suoh as is usod in arc electric lights. Tbe "fuse wns a piece of broken twine frayed out and stuck fast to a metal cap on this carbon. Later tbe whole thing was recognized as the remnants of an old, used-up- , dry eli ttrlo battery of a style known In the tnde ns "Mesco'from the Initials of tbe makers, the Metropolitan Electrlu Supply Company. They are such batteries as are used to operate front door bells and Interior call bells. WASTED TO HAVE TUB JDOO. . i A Brooklyn Olrl Wonrly 7Loss Her Own Urn In tbe Attempt. Fifteen-year-ol- d Emma Miller, a nurse In the family of Louis Kennedy at SOI Tenth street, Brooklyn, nearly lost her life in a fire at tbe house on Friday night whilo trying to rescue a pet dog from the flames. The girl got out ot the house safely, but on returning for the dog was overcome by the smoke and had lo be carried down the fire escape by Mr, Kennedy. The dog perished. W. B.

John Roberts had se- cured an award of $7,600 from tho Stato Court of Claims on account of damages sustained by him by his Improper conviction and Imprison- ment for the alleged crime of burglary. In his claim Roberts demanded Judgment for $138,-07- the claim having been filed In May, 1895, nnder an existing act passed by the Legisla- ture. Judge Beebe wrote the opinion In this case. lie said: "We are authorized by the Legislature to award such damages as shall appear to be Just and reasonable. It appears that tho pris- oner had previously been in prison for assault. We think we fully meet the Intention of the Legislature by directing a Judgment in Rob- erts's favor for 7.5O0.', Roberts Uvea nt 350 Fulton street, Brooklyn, and Is now 49 years ot age.

Tbe demand for American corn abroad this year Is a feature of the export trade in grain that is attracting much attention. Until this yesr Europe could not be Induced to buy our corn. In some quarters it was maintained that the cereal was not fit to eat. Our Consuls and commercial agents, and even the exhibitors of American cereals, have tried In vain to get Europeans accustomed to its use. This year, however, the Indications are differ- ent. A wheat famine stares Europe In the face, and the price of wheat products has Increased enormously. The poorer people can no longer afford to eat wboat bread and the other products or wheat, so they mutt havo a substitute. Rye has heretofore supplied this n hen wheat reschod famine prices Hut tho rye crop this year abroad Is as short as tho wheat crop. Therefore neces- sity has accomplished what persuasion and ar- gument could not. It has been nsscrted that this demand for corn would lower tho price of wheat. It is years since there has been so little w heat In tho world as there b now, and the corn crop has seldom been heavier. Ho far, the price of wheat has not been materially affected, and the prices of corn nnd wheat have not tended to diminish the exports of either cereal. Export corn is now BO per cent, blither than It was a year ago. It Is predicted that, owing tn the heavy shipments of wheat and corn, the balance of trade in favor of the United states this year will be heavier than it has been In years. Tbe grain exports show nn Increase rrom week to week, while in general imports there has been almost as steady a falling off. BTEISWAY SALE IS OFF.

Charles Stelnway told a Sos reporter yester- day that the decision not to soil out the plant and business of Stelnway & Sons to an English syndicate was due to the fact that legal compli- cations bad arisen In tbo settlement of the Steinwat estnto which made tbe projected transfer Impossible. "Much of the stock had been sold.' said Mr. 8telnw-av- , "and It was noressary to return a large amount of money that ha I been puld for the shares. If tho complications In the affairs of the estate hail not arisen we should have f out the details of the original plan to sell tu the ayndlcnto.

To thb Eorron or Tn Sun air: Ono of the meanest attacks on conscientious and efilclont professors has Just reached a successful Issue In tho Kansas Agricul- tural College. Tho Into reorganization of this college Involves not simply this per- sonal Injustice, but a prostitution of a o that has ranked as tho equal of any agri- cultural college In tho United States Into a propagandist's Institution. Tho slander got- ten out against thoso discharged professors by tho now President nnd board Is for the sako of covorlng up this degradation of tho college to propngandlsm. In 1870 l'rof. Gcorgo T. Falrchlld, slnco 1805 professor In tho Michigan Agricultural Collego, was called to tho Presidency of what Is famil- iarly know n as tho IC. 8. A. C. Tho growth of this collego has been steady nnd rapid. Tho at- tendance In '78-'7- was 207. In '8 It reached 401, and In '05-'0- 0 It was IU7, and tho collogo has UfcU Its accommodations to tho full. The success of the Institution can be assumed when statistics show that, nlthough there has been this increase in nttendanco, tbcro has been oven a greater Incrcaso in tho number of who complcto the course. In 1880 the graduating class numbered 7, but In 1890 06 graduates received their B. S. There has been an increase of ovor 300 per cent. In attendance, but of 010 per cent, in tho bIzo of tho graduat- ing class. In 1881) tho IC. S. A. C. wns ono of tho few educational institutions selected by the Interior Department to represent American education nt tho Exposition at Tarls. When the Department ot Agriculture was organised at Wnshlnrton threo of the specialists were graduates of the K. S. A. 0., while one re- ceived graduato training there. In 1895-0- tho courso of Btudy was length- ened by making "provision for oxtcndlng tho courso to fhe years at tho option of the stu- dent upon reaching tho fourth year." "During the fourth year thoso who choose tho five-yea- r courso may chooso ono clecttvo and for tho fifth yoar two clcctlvcs. Tbo elcctlves offered cover, for tho fall term, twenty-fou- r advanced subjects; for tho winter term, twenty-two- , and for tho spring term, twenty-five- .

And little but respectful language has bocn used regarding Dr Fair-chil- He received the dograo of LL. I). from Oberlln College a few years ago, and this year was elected President of tho American Asso- ciation of Agricultural Collcgos. A cowardly attack has been mado upon those who find It less easy to defend tbemsehes. But the serious concern is tho prostitution of our educational institutions to propngandlsm. Tbe new Popullstlo board has given It out that tha new professors will bo frco to teach and will not be hampered in any way. This sound-o- d well, thouuh It gies nn excuso for tbu dls charge of efficient men nnd wholesale slander. Now that tbe new faculty is organtred, tbe scheme appears. Freedom Is to be gien to tho right men. Thomas E. Will is elected Presi- dent. Here is a sample of his sophoinorlc style I of talking: "Mean whilo the mechanical age has been achieving Its triumphs ami working its mira- cles. The power of steam has been evoked, lightning has been chained, nnd theso two monsters have been hnrnn-se- d to the enginos which tho genii of tbo modern world huvo de- vised."

I Tbe first evening high school for women to boI .resulted In thl city open evening.

I for everal rear John Jaaper, Citr Superln- -

I ttndint of Bchools, and tha member of thoI Board of Kducatlon aw and to ked of thaI necessity of such an Institution; but aa thaI lwtood they could do jothtng. They were notI tbe only people who advocated an eTsnlng high

I school for women. It Inquiries and InterestI guj be taken as evidence, girl and women wereI n more anxious that one should be provided.I lluceth siUbllthment of such a school wasI determined upon by the Board of EducationH Bnr graduates of the publlo schools of thisI and other cities, girls who haro never had aI chance to graduate, women who had to giro upI their studies and are now employed In officesH and shops, and others who have struggled toH educate themselves, hare been asking who areI tllclbleto attend ths school, what Is requiredI (or admission, what they may study, how theI school Is to be run, and other questions thatH show a lire Interest.H The new srhool will be held lu GrammarH School building No. 60, at 211 East TwentiethH street. Miss Kathcrlno Blake is the principal.H It Is believed that before long twenty teachersH will bo needed, but up to this time only halfHj that number havo been appointed. RegistrationH has been in progress every evening for twoH weeks between the hours of 7 and 0:10 o'clock.H Nearly 00 occupants, most of them youngHI women occupied in business, havo registered.HI Their ages vnry from 14 to 00 years, and some

re married. One applicant wanted to know ifS er husband couldn't come, too, and was quite

I disappointed when told that it would be tmpos- -

llble to admit him.I Any girl over 10 years of age is eligible to at--

HJ tend tbe school, provided she can pass the nec--Hj susary examination in reading, spelling, googra- -

Hi phy. grammar, and arithmetic through commonHi ana decimal fractions and thcirapplicatlons. ItHi la further required that each pupil shall showHi special fitness in such subjects as shall be fun- -

HI damental to the subject or subjects of studyHi that she m ty solrct. There Is an exception tosV ihu ml,- - which makes it possible for ctrls underHi 10 who have reached the first grammar gradeHi and present a certificate to that effect to gainHi admission to the new high school.Hi The subjects to be taught comprise Latin,HJ French. Spanish, German, arithmetic, algebra.He! geometry, and trigonometry, physics, appliedHsi mechanics, bookkeeping, English literature andHi oratory, phonography, chemistry, anatomy andHsl physiology, architectural, mechanical, and free- -

Hi hind drawing, higher English grammar,Hsl rhetoric and competition, political scienceHsl and American history. This curriculumHsl Is higher in many ways than that ofHsl many colleges for girls and women. The '

indents In ths evening high school for girls1 are been put on an exact footing with those inthe threo evening high schools for male pupils,

Hsl and so have the teachers. The latter are to re- -

Hjl celve exactly the same pny aa tbe teachers inHb the male school, and this has enabled the boardHi to secure specialists In nearly all tho branches.HB The school will be conducted exactly like theHb eventmr high schools for male students. Tbe

lew rules have Just been issued. The evening 'fi divided Into two equal sessions, the first be- -

glnningat7:lf o'clock and the second ending atHH 9:1.1. Every pup 1 is expected to be in her seat 'HB at 7 o'clock. At 7:1a the first bell will be rung '

HH to announce tbe b ginning of work. The doorsHH will be closed at 7:30, and no one coming afterHH that time will be permitted to enter a class I

HB room. Those who arrive within the previousHi quarter of an hour will go directly to theHnl assembly room on the top floor and re- - i

HB main there quietly until ordered to JoinHH their respective classes. The second bell willHH ring at 8:10. when all work will cease. TbeHH third bell will ring at 8:15, when all pupilsHH scheduled to meet classes on the top floor willHH Pass upstairs promptly and rapidly to their

laces in the aasemoly room. Those who haveS nished their work will then pass quickly down- -

HH stair and out of the building. Students on theHH second floor intending to Join a class on thatHH floor are expected to retain their seats until the i

HHi others have gone np or down. The fourth bellHH will ring at 8:30. when students on the ton floorHH wanting to Join classes on the lowerHI floor will pass down. Those desirousHH of entering another class mm on the sameHH floor will take seats In the assembly room andHH will be immediately sent to their class rooms.HH Work will begin again at 8:2.1. and no girl will I

HH be permitted to enter a recitation room laterHH than 8:30. These regulations Insure quiet inHH the class rooms and economy of time. In case ofsHH an overflow In any class those registered firstHH" will be admitted. There is little chance ofHH trouble in this direction, however, for no ellgl- -

HH ble pupil haa ever been turned away from anyHH night school in the city, high school or other- -

HJ In speaking of the outlook for the new schoolHH a woman who Is much Interested and was pres- -

HH ent every evening while the registration went

Hi "The new school is bound to be a great sue- -HH cess, because the applicants are so In earnest.HH They have been very mucn pleased to find thatHH both the Board of Education and tbe principalHH and staff of the new school have endeavored toHH furnish every opportunity whereby women canHH extend the education which they have received.HH Most of the applicants havo been young womenHH who work hard all day as typewriters, stenog- -

HH raphers, shop girls, clerks in offices, and so on.HH But the roll Includes tho names of women inHH everr walk In life, and they have poured In fromflnVM t. rtattnrv nn tn 135th street.HH "A representative case, showing how anxious .

HH these girls are to gain knowledge, comes to roy '

HH mind. A girl, who Is a clerk in an office In ParkHH place, called with a friend, who came with herHH mind made up to register the other evening. I

Hi made It a rule to ask those who came wltn I

HH friends if they did not wish to register, too. SoHH i asked this girl. Sbo snld she would have toHH ask her mother first, but I noticed that she tookHH great interest in the courses of study, and in

Hi fact In everything connected with the school.HH The n-- xt night shew s back, siylng that herHH mother had willingly given her consent.HH "'Ton see. I aon't get out of the office untilHH o'clock.' Bbe went on. her intelligent face allHH aglow, and I've got everything nil planned. 1

HH shall walk up here from Park place because IHH will feel better for the exercise n the open air.HH '"Bntwhen will you cot jour dinner! I asked.HH " r'h. after I got home.' she answered.HH '"Well. I shall refuse you ndmlsslon. soldi,HH 'if you do not promise me to eat a sandwich orHH something before you leave the office. Other- -

A Mammsth OtMl Cnr neat Ballt ror the51. T. and Worfolk R-- B.

EuziPirru, K. J Sept. 25. The largest steelvessel ever launched from a private shipyardInto New York waters was launched IntoStaten Island Sound at high tide this morningfrom Nixon's Elizabethport shipyard. Thiswas the mammoth oar float built by LewisNixon for the Philadelphia, New York and Nor-

folk Railroad, ot which Mr. A. J. Cassatt IsPresident The float la 345 feet long, 47 feetbeam, and 13 feet deep. Four car tracks arebolted on the steel deck on iron supports thatwould extend in a single line for half a mils.Twenty-eigh- t cor weighing 1,000 tons willbe the usual load of this float. Elaborate andmassive cleats, eyes, and bitts are arranged fortowing. Anchors and chains are carried ateach end with windlasses and davits for hand-ling.

A large boiler develops steam for pumpingout ths numerous water-tig- compartmentsand for working the steam steering engines.A rudder at each end, ot the balanced type. Isactuated by both band and steam gear fromthe pilot house on top ot the central bridge,which Is built up high enough to permit thecars to go beneath it.

The sole pieces ot the float launched y

were sawed oft at 7:14, and tbe vessel at onceglided easily and rapidly into the stream.There was a distance of only about 100 feet forber to go after leaving the ways, but the tughaving tier held her enough to simply let hernose rest upon the grass on the other side. Theanchor had been dropped, and she was held Inplace till this could be raised, and was then atonce token in charge by the tug Erie andbrought to the wharf. Over a million and ahalf pounds of steel are built Into the hull.She has twenty transverse water-tigh- t com-partments so arranged that they can be emp-tied or niled very quickly by steam pumps ofgreat capacity. She leaves for Norfolk atnoon on iunday.

This float started at the water's edge andextended beyond the limits of the yard out Intothe city, so that Elizabeth can say that she pos-sesses a yard capable of building any sized ves-sel. Mr. Nixon took this yard after it hadbeen closed for about two years and rapidly or-

ganized a yard force, with which he has beenable to launch thirty vessels in as manymonths to the great benefit of the worklngmenand merchants of New York and Elizabeth.

RECREATION KER OPENED.

FOltXALZT UASDED OTEll TO XIIBOITX XESTEItDAT.

Haste and Palristle perches and a Hest rCheering Children Make th Ceremony ariensant One rather Drnnn Sonnds thKynl ef True American Sentiment.

The Recreation Pier at the foot of EastTwenty-fourt- h street wa dedicated and for-

mally opened to the publlo yesterday afternoonand a great crowd, composed largely of

children from the neighborhood, wit-

nessed the ceremony. Tbe weather was nsmild a that of a midsummer day, and the sur-

face of the river flashed and glittered In therays of the sun. Although thp speechmaklngdid not begin until 4 o'clock the gates leadingto the pier were thrown open two hour ear-

lier, and Acting Inspector Thompson's squadof 200 policemen were not put to tho necessityof exerting themselves to keep order In thecrowd. When the ceremonies wore over Uie

white gloves of the blueconts were uniolled,and Inspector Thompson said that not one childhad even stubbed lis toe.

Th crowd began to arrive as soon as thegates were opened, and during tho intervalthat preceded the dedication BandmasterJoyce' twonty-flv- e musicians played aire bothsad and gay. Fifteen hundred camp chairshad been provided ror tho Invited guests, andevery one of them was occupied when Presi-dent O'Brien of the Dock Board arose In thetemporary stand to Introduce Mayor Strong.The seats of the older people were grouped inthe eastern end of the pier, while the childrensat near the western side ot the stand.

"In behalf of the Board of Docks, I now pre-

sent this pier to the people of New York for

their recreation and enjoyment," said Gen.O'Brien, and then he Introduced Mayor Strong.At the mention of the Mayor's name the chil-

dren cheered loudly. The older folks applaud-ed loudly, too, nnd Mayor Btxong looked vastly

""had tho pleasure of being present at theopening of tho Third street plor in July," hosaid. T'It was the first enterprise of its kindever undertaken in this country, and Ita popu-larity and success hnvo made the Irack Com-missioners feel the necessity of continuing th;good work. Hence this pier. The Dock Boardha undertaken to build three moro, but this Isthe banner pier of them all, and Its success is aforegone conclusion.

"N6w, I had nothing to do with tho buildingof these piers. The credit belongs entirely tothe Dock Commissioners. 1 only patted them onthe back and told them to go ahead with thowork. In fact, that's oil I do to any of theboards In the city government.

The crowd whooped, and tho Mayor s smilewas childlike and hland.

That's so," continued the Mayor, "and Ifthey don't do their duty they will be called toaccount for It In a hurry.

"AU these enterprises undertaken for therecreation and amusement of the people will beblessed by the generations to come. It may bathat wo will be nbl to Inclose thi pier withglass and have It heated so that peopl concome here winter evenings and have a littledance. If we do. 111 be deDghted to come downand Join you."

The Mayor sat down amid a roar of applause.When the noise had subsided he IntroducedAssistant Corporation Counsel John ProctorClarke, who said he would talk to the children.lie addressed them as citizens of New orlc,and told them how proud they ought to be tolire In such a fine city. When he had finished.ths children cheered for a full minute.

The Uav. Father Brann, pastor of St. Ag-nes-

Church, was tho next speaker. I con-gratulate our honest, faithful, clsver, and hard-working Mayor on the completion of this beau-tiful pier," ho said. "I particularly congratu-late the Mayor, for, after aU, tho Dock Commis-sioners were only the men selected by him tocarry out this work. I have always believedthat the capitalist who founds an Institutionfor the education or the relief of tho poor doesmore for the preservation of social order than astanding army. The poor emigrants who comehere are not to be biamod because they arotainted with socialism and kindred evils. ThoGovernments which oppressed them in theirnative lands are responsible for that. Butwhen they come to this country and make theirhomes under our starry flag; when they cometo this great free city and see our line streetsand aocks; when they come to know CooperUnion and the other great Institution and thepurpose for which they were founded, thentheir ideas change, and the germs of anarchyand socialism begin to decay.

"This pier, whose opening we are celebrationws built for the rtch as well as for then. Tl la nn. nt thA IHBlbJ devised bv PrOYl--

dence to kill oft the microbes of anarchism.'Tho lost speaker was Alderman bllos Oood-ma- n.

He directed bis remarks entirely to thechildren.

Among those who were on the stand duringtho speechmaklng were Dock CommissionersEinstein and Monks. Major Pllmley, PutnamDradlee Strowj, and Secretary Terry of thoDock Board. Illshop Potter, who had accept-ed the Invitation to deliver an address, tele-graphed from Saratoga that ho was too HI tobe present. ArcbbUhop Corrhran nnd BishnpFarley also sent regrets.

The Twenty-fourt- h street pier Is tho secondof its kind to be opened to the public, and'eon-tract- s

for three more areabout to brflet. TheTblrdstreet pier ha been opened since July, and Itssuccess has surpassed even the fondest hopesof the Dock Commissioners. The Twenty-fourt- h

street pier Is 720 feot lone, and It isestimated that It will accommodnte 14.000persons. Its cost when completed will bemore than 4)100,000. It Is the intention of theDock Commissioners, provided they can get thenecessary authority, to Inclose tbe pier in glassand hare it properly heated so that It oan beused all tbe year around Instead of auring thewarm months only.' The Park noard now .

has under consideration a proposition to stockthe pier with flowers and plants, and tho Boardof Education will be asked to provide a courseot free lectures for the winter months.

3EXT A "BOMB" TO MBS. MILLER.

It Was an Old Plnrod Ont Eleetiio Battery.Evidently (leant In He a Joko.

Some one played a cheap Joke upon Mrs.Caroline Miller of 423 East Fourteenth streetyesterday afternoon by sending a bundle to herin which was concealed a fake bomb. A smallboy, who Is not known to Mrs. Miller, rang berbell and when she responded he put a packageinto her hands, saying:

" A man so it that to you."Then he ran away, Mrs. Miller was puzzled,

but pleased, and taking tbe package into berrooms undid It, Then sho was astonished andsomewhat alarmed. In tho centre of tho numer-ous wrappings Mrs. Miller discovered a thingwhich any yellow Journalist w ould recognize atonce as a deadly bomb. It was a cylinder ozino about seven Inches long nnd threo Inchesin diameter, closed with metal at tbe bottomand sealed at tbe top with wax. Out of thosealed end stuck a round black substance bear-ing a fuse-lik- e cord which was four or liveInches long.

As the thing wasn t afire and dldn t seem anymore dangerous when it was unwrapped than Ithad been before. Mrs. Miller didn't faint or havehysterics, but put on ber but and took tho bombto the East Twenty-secon- street polli e station.Cipu Elbert O. Smith bad seen ' bombs" before.He put this one in a pall of water for a few min-utes and then opened It. Un er the scalingwax was found a lot of powdered carbon In awrapping of cloth and the centre piece wns a

tick of compressed carbon, suoh as is usod inarc electric lights.

Tbe "fuse wns a piece of broken twinefrayed out and stuck fast to a metal cap on thiscarbon. Later tbe whole thing was recognizedas the remnants of an old, used-up- , dry eli ttrlobattery of a style known In the tnde ns"Mesco'from the Initials of tbe makers, theMetropolitan Electrlu Supply Company. Theyare such batteries as are used to operate frontdoor bells and Interior call bells.

Gain In Money.

Tbe demand for American corn abroad thisyear Is a feature of the export trade in grainthat is attracting much attention. Until thisyesr Europe could not be Induced to buy ourcorn. In some quarters it was maintained thatthe cereal was not fit to eat. Our Consuls andcommercial agents, and even the exhibitors ofAmerican cereals, have tried In vain to getEuropeans accustomed to its use.

This year, however, the Indications are differ-ent. A wheat famine stares Europe In the face,and the price of wheat products has Increasedenormously. The poorer people can no longerafford to eat wboat bread and the other productsor wheat, so they mutt havo a substitute. Ryehas heretofore supplied this n hen wheat reschodfamine prices Hut tho rye crop this year abroadIs as short as tho wheat crop. Therefore neces-sity has accomplished what persuasion and ar-gument could not.

It has been nsscrted that this demand forcorn would lower tho price of wheat. It isyears since there has been so little w heat In thoworld as there b now, and the corn crop hasseldom been heavier. Ho far, the price of wheathas not been materially affected, and the pricesof corn nnd wheat have not tended to diminishthe exports of either cereal. Export corn is nowBO per cent, blither than It was a year ago. It Ispredicted that, owing tn the heavy shipments ofwheat and corn, the balance of trade in favor ofthe United states this year will be heavierthan it has been In years. Tbe grain exportsshow nn Increase rrom week to week, while ingeneral imports there has been almost as steadya falling off.

"Much of the stock had been sold.' said Mr.8telnw-av-

, "and It was noressary to return alarge amount of money that ha I been puld forthe shares. If tho complications In the affairsof the estate hail not arisen we should have f

out the details of the original plan to selltu the ayndlcnto. It was not until tbe announoe-nien- t

of tho contemplated sale that I realizedhow much Interest the world took In our affairs.In all of the European newspapers, a well as inNew York, there was exhibited the greatestamount of interest In the contemplated ckange."

Thesuccess of the Institution can be assumed whenstatistics show that, nlthough there has beenthis increase in nttendanco, tbcro has beenoven a greater Incrcaso in tho number of

who complcto the course. In 1880 thegraduating class numbered 7, but In 1890 06graduates received their B. S. There has beenan increase of ovor 300 per cent. In attendance,but of 010 per cent, in tho bIzo of tho graduat-ing class. In 1881) tho IC. S. A. C. wns ono oftho few educational institutions selected by theInterior Department to represent Americaneducation nt tho Exposition at Tarls. Whenthe Department ot Agriculture was organisedat Wnshlnrton threo of the specialists weregraduates of the K. S. A. 0., while one re-

ceived graduato training there.In 1895-0- tho courso of Btudy was length-

ened by making "provision for oxtcndlng thocourso to fhe years at tho option of the stu-

dent upon reaching tho fourth year." "Duringthe fourth year thoso who choose tho five-yea- r

courso may chooso ono clecttvo and for thofifth yoar two clcctlvcs. Tbo elcctlves offeredcover, for tho fall term, twenty-fou- r advancedsubjects; for tho winter term, twenty-two- , andfor tho spring term, twenty-five- . Tho boldwhich this institution has secured on tho peo-

ple of Kansas and tho reputation which it hasgained among those interested in agriculturalcollego work would mako tho excuBo which thePopullstlo board have Issued to Justify theirrecent reorganization something laughablewere It not that tho professors wbom theyslander by charging with incompetency aromado to suffer.

Some little "sense'of Justice has'been shown.One professor is admitted to be thoroughly pre-

pared for hi work. And little but respectfullanguage has bocn used regarding Dr Fair-chil-

He received the dograo of LL. I). fromOberlln College a few years ago, and this yearwas elected President of tho American Asso-

ciation of Agricultural Collcgos. A cowardlyattack has been mado upon those who find Itless easy to defend tbemsehes.

But the serious concern is tho prostitutionof our educational institutions to propngandlsm.Tbe new Popullstlo board has given It out thattha new professors will bo frco to teach andwill not be hampered in any way. This sound-o- d

well, thouuh It gies nn excuso for tbu dlscharge of efficient men nnd wholesale slander.Now that tbe new faculty is organtred, tbescheme appears. Freedom Is to be gien to thoright men. Thomas E. Will is elected Presi-dent. Here is a sample of his sophoinorlc style I

of talking:"Meanwhilo the mechanical age has been

achieving Its triumphs ami working its mira-cles. The power of steam has been evoked,lightning has been chained, nnd theso twomonsters have been hnrnn-se- d to the enginoswhich tho genii of tbo modern world huvo de-vised."

And hero aro samplss of his attltudo tow-ard our educational Institutions:

"And now, w hen it is protiosed aa an educa-tional policy to dlsclpllno tho mind by teach-- 1

Copernicus, and Galileo, was flat,thai tho doctrine of the circulation of tho bloodwas absurd, who denounced as atheists and

characters tho geologists who dis- - '

"Hut tho world will continuo to move, dspite tho owls and ImtH."

What aro tlieo "bat roosts" to tench when re-organized nnd their standards raiicd! Thl:

"With sliirht occasional backward hitchestoward good times, society, smothered In itsown wealth, privately appropriated, movessteadily toward the swamp of chronic hardtiircs, marked by general ovcrprodut tion, indus-trial stagnation, and Docrty alleviated onlybv charity.

""That such Is tho trend of modern societyany Bane man capable of consecutive thoughtnnd willing to look about blmehould honb'ntobco.

Yet what school of'scientific' economists has ns yet caught thofirst glimmer of this fundamental truth! Sim-ply to Kluto tbe cold facts as found In tboUnited Stntes cencus Is lo Hap tho red fine Inthe face nf tho bull of modern capitalism.

And this free lmpostcr of education mukes aprediction:
