Washington's Schools, sare » the army of chil- ueated to becom of this great system of this machine for the evolu- the good American, he hel ur the patriotic ul member of society. The has for several years en yutation Of possessing one of ‘d public educational sys- untry, despite the handicap appropriations, and notwith- ding the constant shifting of a certain bertion of the population. The divorce of the schools from political influences has ubtless contributed largely to this effect, one of the most substantial factors in the evolution of the system to a high plane of efficiency has been the keen, intelligent interest of the people in the welfare of eir children in this regard and the close Watch they maintain over every depart- ment of the system Whatever the exact cause or the process which has united the various causes into one strong, well defined current toward the highest ideals of public education, it remains true that Washington's schools are today considered by educators as second t» none in efficiency, scope and thorough- ness. Advantage has been taken of the latest developments in this line, and it is sraliiciog to note now that in some re- nation’s capita! Joyed the r the equ tems in the « of insufficient stanc but spects the capital has shown the way, has created new standards, particularly in the menual training of the young. It is, there- fore, pleasing to find, upon the eve of an- other school year, substantial evidence of the fruits of this enterprise in the form of a liberal appropriation for the erection of a large, modern structure espectally de- signed for the manual training of the chil- dren of the schools. It was hoped that two stch buildings would be provided, but Con- gress sew fit to start with one, and it is not to be questioned that {it will prove so successful and satisfactory a feature of the system that the other will follow in short order. The year opens with a slightly enlarged teachirg force. Some improvement is yet to be desired in this direction. The best re- sults are obtained when the ratio of pupils to teachers is reduced below that which economical measures have created in this city. It is to be hoped that as the years go by and Congress learns the lesson of true economy the number of instructors will be steadily increased to meet more fully the steadily increasing burden of re- sponsibility upon each. Five new buildings are this year added to the equipment, so distributed as to relieve congestion here and there and to afford near-by school accommodations for chil- dren who have heretofore been obliged to go far from their homes for their daily les- sens. Two other buildings, not counting that for the manual training purposes, are in course of erection and one is to be re- built, so that the opening of the school year of "98-9 finds the system as well out- fitted as ever before in local history, and in some respects far ahead of the capital's previous record. As a new feature a start is to be made on the kindergarten work in the schools, which has heretofore in this city been regarded as essentially a field for private enterprise. The gradual ex- pansion of the public school system, how- ever, has broken down many barriers and new this city will have an opportunity to witness the instruction‘of the very young in the little arts of childhood which tend to make the fingers nimble, the minds alert, the eyes discriminative and the nature plant and kindly. Doubtless this feature, if found on trial to succeed and to be capable of safe expansion, will ultimately prove to be a marked blessing to many parents who are now obliged to leave their cHildren to the questionable influences of the streets at their most impressionable age, or else place them in the graded schools so,early as to rvsh them through before their minds and bodies are strong erough to bear the strain of continuous instruction. ——— +02 - Golf in a New Light. ‘The annual tournament for the golf championship of the United States was held last week at Morristown, N. J., and attracted more than a hundred contest- ants and several thousand enthusiastic spectators. The results, however, show that this transplanted sport has not yet been thoroughly mastered by American players, for this year, as in every other year before, national championship hon- ors have been carried off by a foreign- born player, one who learned the intrica- cies of the game over Scotch links. But what was it all about? This ts the question that has agitated the minds of a great many of the unregenerate who know not the difference between a stimmie and a caddy. They fall to see the charm which the game has upon all who have ever swatted a ball with a club. Golf has been described in a humorous way as a game where you hit a marble with a stick and then if you find the marble again the same day you win the game. This is really a slur upon golf. There must be a fascina- tion about it that only its followers can understand or appreciate; to the rest of mankind it is worse than a closed book. They regard golf not as a game, but as a disease more contagious than any other known to the medical fraternity. Now would it seem that these unfortu- nates have been fn error all the time. Golf is not a disease; it is a cure. Here is an extract from a paper on “Golf from a Neurological Viewpoint,” read before the American Neurological Society by a fa- mous specialist of this city: “It combines exercise, pleasure and fresh air without that risk ‘of injury to heart, lungs or nervous system as is the case in certain other exercises in which there is high blood pressure and arterial tension. There is absolutely no danger attached to the game, and consequently no accidents ensue. Unlike the bicycle, it is doubtful if such a thing as an accident insurance was ever paid for injury incurred at golf. Nor is the game contraindicated in heart ation, albuminuria, Jhood or certain hysterical con- would be aggravated by such bicycling, s' back riding or by mountain Further along in the same paper appears foliowing, the the value ted by of which laymen gener- can searc ally “I may say that in all affections marked by slowing of oxidation or in those conse- t upon intoxication by the products of imilation, the game of golt to be recommended as the best method of bringing about a cure. The real significance of this indorsement cannot be overestimated, but it seems to place these candidates for championship honors in a new light. Were they sports- men in the usually accepted sense of the word, or were they sufferers who were seeking a cure for some of the above men- tioned ills? ——_— +42 Like Father Like Son. The deata of Capt. Capron yesterday, from fever contracted during the Cuban campaign, is particularly sad in that he was the third of his name to give up his life for his country. His father, who was kiiled at the battle of Cherubusco, dur- ing the war with Mexico, commanded Bat- tery E, of the First U. S. Artillery, the sume battery that Capt. Capron, the sec- ond, commanded at the battle of Santiago. The battery since been officially desig- nated as Capron’s Battery, and properly 30. Capt. Allyn Capren, the third, was with the Rough Riders when he lost his life Sighting gallantly before Santiago. A second son of the Capt. Caoron who died yesterday en- listed in the regular army in the hope of earning his commissicn, but died before success came. The name of Capron is one that the American people will not soon for- get. ——_——_ + = —____ Russell Sage is over eighty years old and attends to his business as regularly as ever. Mr. Sage has known how to take care of his health as well as other things. ———_ += —____ These are rapid times. Five or six months is quite sufficient to make a genuine war veteran. —___ + «= —____ Some Enemies of lization. Edward Everett Hale, in a sermon de- livered in Boston yesterday to a congrega- tion composed in part of the Sovereign Grand Lodge, I. O. O. F., said: “We meet at the end of one of the great wars of the ages. In one hundred days God set forward the civilization of the world one hundred years. The lesson of the war ts like the last flash from a thun- derstorm; the lesson of peace on earth, good will among met Such undoubtedly is the lesson of the war with Spain, but is it being generally accepted? The United States went to the succor of the Cubans who had taken up arms against Spain upon the proposition that they were being ctuelly persecuted and were entitled to the blessings of free government. Spain had trampled them under foot and violated all of her promises of reform to them. Her cynical reply to complaints on this score was that the Cubans were a worthless lot, incapable of government themselves, and only successfully to be dealt with by the severe and repressive measures she was applying. This estimate of the Cubans 1s now accepted by pro-Spanish Americans, who are proposing in effect that the United States play Spain's game in the island— violate its promise to the Cubans, rate them savages led by a few adventurers, and put the screws to them without mercy or hesitation in order that they may be forced to accept American domination. When we went to war everybody soon realized our unprepared state. The Presi- dent and his Heutenants were hampered in many ways. Our fighting machine was no- toriously too small for our purposes, and the means for increasing its size and mak- ing it effective were tortuous and anti- quated. It is only fair to assume until the contrary is shown upon investigation that the men in authority tried to do their duty. There was most lamentable failure in some of the most important of the business, and the President is seeking to have the re- sponsibility fixed. But in advance of all in- quiry, a lot of yellow newspapers, yellow politicians, and yellow members of the sa- cred calling of which Dr. Hale 1s himself so admirable a representative have em- barked upon a hunt for victims, and are dragging in for punishment men who at least are entitled to a trial and who are actually asking for one. Civilization, we believe, as Dr. Hale as- serts, has been set forward by the war, but the individuals who are at present bespattering the Cuban people with vitu- peration, and others who are scapeggat- hunting in a spirit of malicious politics or cheap sensationalism, are doing their best to set it back again. —_ ++ —___ Worse Than Folly. The didn't-know-it-was-loaded fool is to the front again. A fond mother in New York last night, in a spirit of fun, brand- isbed a pistol in the face of her little five- year-old son. She was told to be careful, but replied that the pistol was a new one and had never been loaded. ““Mamma’s go- ing to shoot you, Willie,” she said laugh- ingly, and then she pulled the trigger. There was a sharp report, a curl of smoke and the helpless child fell to the floor, shot through the head. He died on his way to the hospital. Of course the heart-broken mother fell in a swoon. Much sympathy was expressed for her sad case, we are told, but the po- ice, under the circumstances, felt that they really had to lock her up until the cese had been officially investigated. And why not? And further, why should she be released, as she doubtless will be, when the investigation is completed? Kind-hearted people will say that her conscience and her memcry will inflict all the punishment necessary in the years to come. This may be true so far as she is concerned, but one of the most important functions of pun- ishment by the state is its example to oth- ers to deter them from committing a sim- ilar offense. The fact that this particular woman will never forgive herself for her act of egregious folly will not prevent other pecple from making fools, and worse, of themselves in just the same way. = «= Nobody who enlists in Uncle Sam's stand- ing army will be in a position to claim that he was not informed as to hardships he might be called upon to undergo. oe Admiral Montojo will console himself dur- ing his suspension with the reflection that a place in the Spanish navy is not what it used to be, anyhow. 2-02 It will take the confusion as to social pesition which results from the organiza- tion of # volunteer army some little time to be readjusted. wee Allusions to General Fitzhugh Lee are less frequent now than a short time ago. He is probably lying low till the hero-kiss- ing is over. a The Czar of Russia has not formulated any peace program to fi: the situation in the war department. +o! SHOOTING Not a Runner. “So our friend who distinguished himself in the war is now running for office “No isn’t,’ answered the loyal ad- mirer. “That's not his way. fe isn’t run- ning for office. He's fighting for it.” The Weather Prophet's Falsehood. As o'er that promise vain, ‘cold wave,’ The stern recording angel glances, He'll note the hopeful cheer it geve And mark, beside his charge so grave, “Extenuating circumstances.” An Iron-Clad Rule. “I'd like to, lady,” said Meandcring Mike, “but it’s impossible for me to clean dem rugs on de terms you offer.” You said you were willing to work.” Yes'm. But me an’ Pete here has or- ganized de carpet beaters’ union, an’ if either of us works fur less dan $7 an hour he forfeits his membership.” Difficulties. “Yes,” said the magazine author's wife, “the warm weather was very hard on Her- Was he obliged to work?” “Yes, indeed. He has had to hurry like everything to get his Christmas and New Year stories and poems on snow drifts and sleigh bells in on time. I never saw the poor fellow perspire so.” Evidence, “{ don’t know whether you were in the army or not,” sald the street car conduc- tor who had been instructed not to collect fares from soldiers. “You haven't your uniform.” “That's a fact. “It's quinine.” “Yes. Watch me swallow it. There,” he proceeded, as he smacked his lips; “that ought to be proof enough. When a man can eat a handful of quinine without mak- ing a face, the chances are about a hun- dred to one that he has been in one of Uncle Sam's camps for a while.” But taste this.” Future Old Inhabitants. Cheer up! When the years that go hurrying on Have brought us an audience new, We'll tell the great wonders of days that are gone, As our grandsires of yore us2d to do. When the splendor of war seems to strike the young mind, And the glories of Rome they relate, ‘We'll tell of the heroes of avery kind That we had in the year ‘98, No matter what topics they try to bring out, Our stories shall silence their lips; And we'll go to the records to settle all doubt As their knowledge so slight we eclipse. If of merely the weather some youngster attunes His remarks, we will tranqullly state How the sluggish sun scattered his s2eth- ing simoons, Back there in the year 98. —_++2___ Haiti Sees Her Mistake, From the Philadelphia Record. Only a single West Indian hurricane was required to demonstrate to the reluctant Haitien government the advantages of the federal system of storm warnings recently established in the islands around the Carib- bean sea. Haiti will now establish stations and exchange signals and data with the weather bureau; and so the chain of obser- vations from the South Atlantic storm cen- ter will be complete. Lansburgh & Bro.
