George Frederick Kunz of Tiffany
A- Co . at Die same meeting spoke on
“International Commerce and Inter
national Commercial Schools."
“The value of a trained man Is in
estimable,” he said. “He will know
what the foreign buyer wants; how
best to shi** th< good I th< most dl
? rect or the cheapest lines, both by
water and by rail, through which to
ship; the proper handling of custom
house business; how and when to
render bills.
"My plan would be to have a school
with two or three years’ course of
actual practice all the time, to be
followed by a year's trip through va
rious countries.”
School Saves Labor.
“A Program for Commercial baln
eation” was the topic of Dr. John
Franklin Crowell, associate editor of
The Wall Street Journal:
“Whatever may be said in favor of
the all-experience m»*thod of com
mercial training,” he said, “It is at
least true that a properly organized,
fairly equipped and reasonably well-
managed school is a labor-saving ma
chine* However good a teacher ex
perience may he. she is slow, unsys
tematic and extremely wasteful in
her methods. If commerce Is to take
the test of efficiency standards both
time and money will be saved by de
voting a few years out of a lifetime to
the mastery of the facts, the princi
ples and the progressive methods^***
that the entrant to the career may
have a fair survey of the market from
everv essential standpoint.
“This is simply asking that this
great branch or division of national
or international labor bo approached
scientifically, so that the experience
of the past may not be Ignored In
preparing for the future. The one
who dose this, and does i' ns well as
It can bo done with existing means at
hand, will stand an immensely better
chance in the competitive and co
operative services of the world’s pur
chasing and producing and consum
ing communities than the one who
other things being equal, ignores Die
wealth of the* world's commercial ex
perience and relies on what he may
learn a u he goes along."

Mrs. Jack Henderson to Enter

band to Surrender,
LEXINGTON, KY., Dec. 30.—A
woman may succeed w here men fail
ed in capturing the thirteen outlaws
hiding in Ely mine, Knox County.
Mrs. .J.*rk Henderson, wife of one of
the outlaws, to-day will go into the
mine and beg her husband to surren
der.
About 75 men are now on guard. It
is rumored that there is a secret
opening to the mine, and that friends
of the outlaws are keeping them sup
plied with provisions.
Men on duty want to enter the mine
in a body, a number going in each
entrance, and make a search, but this
is held impracticable and a needless
risk of life, as the mine contains
many hiding places and points of
vantage where three men might eas
ily hold at bay 40 or more.
It is thought that the outlaws took
a good supply of ammunition into
their hiding place, and as no shots
have been fired by them, it is sup
posed they are Keeping their bullets
in reserve and will use them when
given an opportunity to be effective.

SAVANNAH. Dec. 30.—Mrs. Wil
liam Lowe, who before her marriage
to a prominent Englishman was w’cll
known in the South as the daughter
of General W. W. Gordon, of Savan
nah, of Civil war fame, returned to
Savannah to-day from London.
Mrs. Lowe is the founder of the
Girl Scouts in America and is in this
country now in the interest of merg
ing the several girls’ organizations of
this kind under one head. She will
leave her home here in a few days
for Washington, where she has open
ed headquarters for tlie Girl Scouts.
Mrs. Lowe is well known in English
society. At the time her friend, Miss

of Girl Scouts.
Convict Travels Over
U. S, on Miser's Cash
MEMPHIS, Dec. 30.—Atief George
Pressley, escaped convict from the
Mississippi Penitentiary, had travel
ed all over the United States on
money stolen from a hiding place in

he had watched George Sims, an
aged miser carpenter employed at the

Sheriff Still After
2 Negro Assailants
JESUP. Dec. 30.—The two negroes
who shot Glover Manning, bridge-

prehended. but are hiding in the

bridge where they shot Manning and
Brarrington Ferry.
Owing to the density of the swamp
the chase was called off during the
night, but Sheriff Price hopes to land

Mayor Woodward Tuesday threat
ened to hide out until he could write
his annual message and make up his
committees for the new Council be
cause of constant interruptions.
He held a conference Tuesday with
Alderman J. H. Harwell, Councilman
Claude L. Ashley, Councilman Charles
W. Smith and Councilman A. R. Col-
cord. Committee appointments were
discussed. It was pretty well under
stood what these men would get.
Harwell likely will be chairman of
the Board of Fire Master**-; Ashley
will be reappointed chairman of the
Sanitary Committee; Colcord will be
renamed chairman of the Police Com
mittee, and Smith chairman of the
Tax Committee—that is, if the gossip
can be relied upon.
Mayor Woodward is leaving all of
his friends more or less in the dark
about his appointments. He discusses
the matter with them and listens to
what they have to say, but what he
is going to do he keeps to^ himself.
Doubt has arisen over the appoint
ment of tlie chairman of the Finance
Committee. A few days ago it was a
foregone conclusion that Councilman
W. G. Humphrey would be renamed.
Now it is uncertain. The chances are
Mr. Humphrey will get the place, but
Alderman C. H. Kelley and Alderman
Harwell are being considered.
The fact is, if Mayor Woodward
should carry out his threat of going
into seclusion until the meeting of
the City Council Monday, when he
will deliver his message and make his
appointments, the members of Coun
cil would not be left much more in
the dark than they are at present.
