W. Atkinson called on various school superintenden in the United States for volunteers (o teact in the Philippines. Confirmation of th statement Is furnished by uperintend ent of Chicago schools, where several vol- unteers have been securcd. It is also stated that teaching volunteers are pected to remain in the Philipines three years; they must have (he cndorsement of the school or institution with which they are connected; their wages ($900 and upward) will be paid by the American government wnd the same relfable paymaster will fur- uieh transportation to the fslands Since the Philippines have become pos- wessions of the United States,’ says the Chicago Times Herald, “rapid fmprove- jnent bas taken place io the methods of education. Owing to the lack of compul- <ory &chool attendance the children of par- ents living i agricultural districts bave grown up in what might be termed com- pulsory ignorance the parents were either ignorant themselves or did not trou- ble themselves to instruct their children Many of these illiterate men and women are beginning to feel ashamed of their Ig- norance under the new couditions, but it will take time for them to throw off the restrictions of Spanish rule and ecclest stical authority “The curriculim of the highest and most wdvanced school in Manila is an advanced one, but the students are generally lacking tn such ¢4 4s ReoRraphy, economics and sociolc The young men are quick to Jearn by imitation rather than profound study. Few of the natives have ever at- tained proficiency in the arts and sclences, although there notable exception the brothers Luno, one a musician, artist, both achieving much local As a people they dislike classical wusic and have no idea of harmony or ex- pression of musical sounds. It remalns for the American teacher to raise her voice in strains that will serve to awaken responsive chords in the dusky breasts ot her pupils. Our patriotic airs, with thetr Inepiring music will make serviceable text books. Teachers in the Philippines are laboring to make little Americans of the children and to replace the servile instruction of « Spanikh monarchy with the simple and serviceable foundation for universal knowl- edge. On the last Fourth of July tho declaration of independence was read to them, they rafsed an American flag over their schoolhouse, and on Washington's birthday they will learn the story of the greatest American and be taught their first lesson in patriotism. “American schoolhouses will soon replace the small inferfor buildings now used for educational purposes. These are mere cabing erected on shaky posts, with win- dows made of thin oyster shells, which admit the light when the lattice is closed, which is only the case when the sunshine becomes too dazzlingly hot or a stiff breeze annoys the teacher. Considering the cli- mate, the effort of teaching is unusually strenuous and the heat, which fs exhila- rating to the natives, Is depresaing to the teacher, causiug severe headaches until uwcclimated. That is why a good stock of health is necessary to meet the exigencies of the position. “Co-education does mot form a part of the school system in Manila, but doubtless that will come later, when the value of competitive study 18 understood. The girls there learn much quicker than the boys and take kindly to training." Prospective volunteers should not hastily resign old positions for the new. Several months must pass before proper creden- tlals can be had. Thelr letters of recom- mendation, indorsement aud acceptance must go to Manila for approval, so that practically three months will intervene be- tween volunteering and acceptance. Hawalian Pu the st are such a one tam an ran- about A correspondent of the Boston meript furnishes interesting facts the public school system of Uncle Sam's newest territory and the awakened in- terest of the natives in education. *‘Last June,” says the writer, “I went through the flue new Kalulani public school in Hawall, named for the lamented Princess Kalulani, This has pupils from the be- glnners in the lowest primary to a class ready to enter the high school and in theso rooms we saw side by side children of all sorts of nationalities, having the wame care and training and all learniug to be good American citizens, Observing the little people in the primary depart- ment gave the clearest idea of the difficul- tles to be faced. Here was the little al- mond-eyed, bequeued mites from China, tiny Japs in plcturesque kimonas, shy tive children bedecked in leis, unkept Port- | uguese and numerous other kinds of little humans which the census man alone can wort out. All these yleld to the sway of & gentle teacher and substitute for their varlous dialects the dificult English which falls sweetly from her lips and is patiently Yepeated ‘seven times seven.' “As we visited the highest room in the bullding, listened to the intelligent recita- tlons and remembered that these students had come from just such materlal as we saw in the first grade, we knew that training and patient endeavor tell. Some of the most interesting and successful students in our schools are the children of mixed Hawailan and Chinese pa- rentage and there are many such now in the schools. They have the attractive ways of the native combined with the pa- tienco and Inlustry of the Chinese. All the Chinese children rank high as stu- dents and the young Chinese now growing up will make excellent citizens “The High school is doing work to be proud of and has found & home in the fine wansion of Mrs. Berenice Pauahl Bishop, s native princess, who died few years ago. The spaclous rooms were easily con- verted into school-rooms and the extensive grounds, full of rare trees and ehrubs, give plenty of outdoor space. They took me to the roof and showed me a wonderful view of city, mountains Barbor. “And lastly cowes to crown the system young Hawallan teachers the Normal This is training the and who are busy during the year.

Large lumber companies pay better, while a “crulser,” one who cs | timates the worth of timber land, receives [ much higher pay During the p year considerable work has been done on private tracts under ad vice from the division of forestry. This was the result of an offer made in October, | 1898, to give advice and assistance to pri vate owners in handling their woodlands Within a year upplications were received from owners in thirty-five states, the total area covered by these applications being about 1,600,000 acres. The prepara- tion of working plans for these tracts and the supervision of their execution is now one of the most important branches of the division of forestry. The first lare forest put under systematic management created for by | profession with | longing to G. W. N. C. The Gifford Pinchot, now the forester of Department of Agriculture, on about acres. Additional tracts have been brought under systematic treatment. An expert forester is still employed to super- intend the work and there is a corps of trained rangers.

Improvement cuttings of various species, chiefly for cordwood, are made in the portions of the tract nearest the market and a certain amount of planting is donme every year. Mr. Pinchot says that a great deal of the work being done at Biltmore would not be practical on many other large tracts managed eolely for profit in other sections of the country. The systematic manage- ment of forests for practical lumbermen will be more along the lines practised on the Webb and Whitney tracts in the Adirondacks, both of which were lumbered under the superviston of the division of forestry, Educatlonal Notes.

H Baldrige returned from erday, where, representing ropean heirs of Eugene Daugherty, he filed suit against the Portland Gold Mining company for au accounting and for one-twelfth in- terest in the Black Diamoud lode of the Portland mine. The attorney for the heirs fixes the value of the ore taken from the | lode at $2,000,000 and the value of the fn- | terest can be cstimated from the fact that an English syndicate recently gave $15,000,- | 060 for the mine. A fow years ago Eugene Daugherty was a section hand and cook on & Colorado rail- road. In company with three other Irish- men, Doyle, Burns and Stratton, he went into the Cripple Creek country, whero the party was successful in a manner to out- rival all expectations. Stratton located the Indepeadence mine, which ig believed to be the best paying mine in the state. Adjoln ing the Independence mine, an® equally as rich, is the Dlack Diamond lode.
