It was com- miss:oned by Miss Helen Gould for the American In- stituie of Social Science and has just recurned to New | York after six months of active investigation abroad ' In Frauce the expedition came upon a “Society of | Employers for the Prevention of Accidents in Mactorias @nd Workshops,” and we should say that a full presenta- tion for public discussion of the objects and methods of Fearon for the coa:mission’s existence. The question of the prevention of accidents in fac- ries has become a very. lively one; ‘The Rvening World hae previously called attention to Its importance. The reat extension of the use of machinery and the multi- plication of mechanical devices in manufacture have Targcly increased the danger of injury, Have the pre- exttions to prevent it been increased to correspond? A ensial inspection of workshops does not reveal them. _ How far on employer's moral respoustbility for the Well being of his employecs extends will ever be de- batable. The sentiment which leads the individual em- Plover to set aside a retiring room for a fainting girl employee where she may be promptly resuscitated, or to ;rovide bandages and tourniquets for an injured workman {3 more than compensated for by the em- Ployves’ appreciation of the consideration. The stimulation of a more general feeling of re-| sporcibility In this particular will bs an excellent fruit of the commission's tour. : THE COLLEGE YEAR. Harvard opens the new college year with a fresh- an cless of 700. this single class furnishing a larger @tuiont roll than most of the colleges can show for their entire attendance, In the higher education there has been a most in- ing development of the college metropolis. Among university communities of the first rank are to be put rd, with a last year's attendance, all told, of 426; Columbia, with 4.785; Cornell, 2,290; Northwest- ern, 3,200; Yale, 2,785; Chicago, 4,560; Michigan, 3,900. From these large figures there is a descent-by varying lations through Brown, 926; Dartmonth, 78’ 5 , 404, to the elghteen students of Andover ‘Theo-| Jogical Seminary. iiere je a seat of learning nearly a eeniury old, the influence of which jn the»logical con- 4rovorsy has been very great, now reduced to a handful of pupils, It has shared the fate of many a thriving ‘Néw England village once of great promise. ‘At sich a collegiate metropolis as Harvard the ad- @ilnistration of education {s on a very large scale is university's productive funds amount to $13,119,-! , and its total income is $2,871,882. Its corps of in- | Btructors, 534 in number, exceed the Mist of students at! ere and students it Is believed to surpass Oxford and Cam- bridge together. It las graduated 25,180 students. Its Uving graduates number 14,662, a city In themselves, These figures impress, They show but Inadequately the wonderful growth of that system of higher educa-{ tion in the United Siates the extent and rapid develop- | ment of which excited the combined admiration and apprehension of the Uritish Premier. | LONDON’S BETTER WAY. Our British cousins are much less Incitned than are ‘We toward squeamishness In matters of morality. In spite of the British matron’s restraining influence there fs x notably greater license of expression in conversation and in the press there than here. Topics are frankly discussed in the London newspapers which here aro} taboo, Yet in London the examiner of plays yesterday fefused a license for D'Annunzio’s “Dead City,” which ‘Duse gave in New York a year ago to crowded houses. Is the inference to be drawn that we are less moral than the English? No; but they, recognizing stage cor ruption when they see it, seek to save their wives and @aughters from the mental contamination which such a drama conveys. + When Duse appeared in Now York in thls drama of decay the playgoer was attracted by the double lure of Ttaly’s greatest actress in a play by Italy's most cele- brated living writer. It was a lure that drew the young girl fresh from bOarding-school or convent along with the pure-minded matron and held them spellbound with the player's art while one of the nastiest of stories was told with all the emphasis of dramatic intensity. The British wisely forbid this defllement. A re- public cannot have a stage censor, but that they order this matter better in a monarchy js evident. DR. WILEY’S POISON SQUAD.
