By Carrier, < “ s Delivered toany part of the city. 12 1-2c Por Week See eosesesases sessee Indusirial: Value of Education. N his address to the British Association for the Advancement of Science, Sir Norman Lockyer, one of the leading scientists of the world, sounded a note of alarm for England. That country of late years has been losing ground, not actually, perhaps, but relatively. Its business has increased, but not in proportion to that of other nations, and at the present time Great Britain is actually in danger of losing its commercial. precedence and sinking into'second or third place. British statesmen have watched this retrograde movement, first with uneasiness, and afterward. with alarm, and have sought for a remedy. The most generally accepted explanation is that mentioned by Lockyer, an explanation by no means new, but coming with especial force from a man of prominence. Germany has been a thorn in the British side and at the same time an example that has commanded respect, The growth and development of the United States have been only such as might have been expected and have occasioned no surprise. But with Germany the situation has been different. What changes have occurred in that country have been due.to shrewd foresight and an appreciation of the needs of the world; in both of which England has failed to keep abreast of her rival. Germany has encouraged scientific and technical education and has thriven. Education in England receives far less attention than in either Germany or the United States and the effect is now most painfully manifesting itself to the British people. Germany by superior knowledge and technical skill has snatched one industry after another from England, and that country has been helpless to resist. Lockyer advises England to follow the example set by Germany and the United States, devote to education a fraction of the money spent on the navy and try to regain the position that has been almost, if not quite, lost. PRP rE PTH HD wD ® The Gratitude of Nations. WN it is desired to stir American patriotism for naval purposes, it is customary to mention the Admirals who have carried the flag to victory, winding up with reference to the achievements of John Paul. Jones. His is indeed a name to stir lagging patriotism, Every school boy knows how his ship, the Bonhomme Richard, was sinking when the Serapis surrendered, and that he had to transfer his crew to the captured Britisher to save their lives, such was the dash and spirit of this prince of American Admirals. But there was more than spectacularism in his work. He rendered the struggling Americans service which went a long way toward securing their independence. When independence was gained, Jones fought for France and fought effectively. France honorshim. Then he fought for Russia, and became one of the most famed and honored of Russian Admirals. Then he died, the hero of three nations, but not one of them knows his burial place. There is a popular story that the body of the dead hero was placed in a private tomb, to be thrown out into the potter’s field eventually, on account of arrears of rent. Another ‘Story has it that he was buried “in a red coffin with a sword at his side,” on a plot of ground where now Stands a Paris inn, Following both accounts, for four years now, Russia, France and the United States, through their several representatives, place. In the fate of Paul Jones is the lack of gratitude of nation shown. His distinguished service entitled him to dis. tinguished reward, but so Separated was the man from his achievements, that, while his fame was sung he was left to die in obscurity and his last resting place allowed to become forgotten, tardy interest in it being shown only after a century and a decade had passed after his death.

The perpetrators of the robbery used a cold chisel in their work, and it is presumed that there were:two or more robbers, The footprints leading to the mill showed that one of the parties had rubbers on his boots or shoes. The guilty parties evidently were well posted as to the time best sulted torob the mill, and chose Sunday night, with its usual quietness, as the time to commit the act. The Nevada County mill is used for custom work, and is not in operation only part of the time. The location of the mill makes it rather risky for robbers toenter the place, as the proximity of the bridge gives a stir to that part of town. At most any hour of the night there are people passing by.* Superior Court. The following business was transacted in the Superior Court today, Judge F. T.
