ITNESSES who will never while they live forget how they sickened and covered their eyes as the bodies of girls and women dropped to the street from the blazing windows of he Triangle Shirtwaist factory, heard with amazement that Max Manck, one of the proprietors of the saine factory, found guilty of gain locking his doors on his workers, got off with the minimum enalty of a $20 fine. | The quibble about the lock has little weight. An inspector of the | ‘areau of Fire Prevention plainly deciared the slot chain lock found a the door to be of a kind likely to prove a terrible trap in case of fire. Wha‘ manner of men can these be who after an appalling lesson are etill ready, in order to protect a few yards of cheap fabric, to ‘xpose ecores of human beings to horrible death? If they have no ‘umanity then it is time for jail s¢ntences to make it plain to them ond their kind what the public demands of them, The Evening World believes that this ghastly form of criminal ndifference and brutality must be stamped out by every means of & publicity and every enforcement of maximum punishment that can be brought to bear on it. To that end this newspaper proposes to nvestigate thoroughly the complaints of all workers in factories whose proprietors violate the fire laws, and particularly the complaints of employees forced to work behind the awful menace of locked doors. a ol ‘The esteemed Tribune advertises Itself as “ & punch.” Milk? newspaper with 4 CHECK ROOM EXTORTION. OME brave New Yorker has dared to declare above a whisper that the charge of ten cents for checking parcels at the Grand Central Terminal is too much. He is even prodding the Public Service Commission to look into the matter. The head of the corporation which holds the checking privilege at the Grand Central is full of fluent information about the $35,000 year rental which he says he has to pay for his checking room. But he dries up and becomes obstinately silent when asked about his yearly profits from the same. The fabulous values of coat-room and checking privileges in this city are notorious. Even in the hotels where the income is only from “voluntary” tips coat-room magnates pay enormous rentals and stil! wax prosperous, while coat-room girls retire annually with their sav- ings to buy farms in Ireland. In « railway terminal the check room is a business Proposition with @ fixed charge which everybody pays. At the parcel room of the big South Terminal in Boston that charge is five cents.

OYS and girls have more and more to learn and less and less time for the job. Even those who go through high school have at most only ten or eleven years. The demand to-day is for quick methods that will shorten preparatory schooling both for those who are going to work and for those who are going to college. Life work of all grades must begin early. In the first years of school, as everybody knows, memory plays the chief part. A professor of pedagogy in New York Unies has been experimenting with children of various ages to determine the most time-saving methods of atudy for the benefit of public achool children in this city. Results of his experiments described in The Sunday World Magazine for to-morrow Prove that the average child wastes much good time and effort in the old-fashioned line-by-line memorizing of poetry, prose and lessons generally, Foran average nine- year-old boy to commit to memory a poem piece-meal, boy-fashion, required twenty-six repetitions.
