On the strength of information furnished
by trustworthy ST. Petersburg correspon-
dent, Mr.. Jennings assures the New York
World that the so-called revelations of the
person calling himself Leo Hartmann have
no value except such as may attach to them
as sensational fiction. The Moscow rail-
road mine was not dug fir ON house as al
legged, for there was no house, except sig
nal-box and tool-house, within 100 yards of
the line at the point of explosion. The dyn-
amite was in broken culvert and fired by
a cartridge which was exploded by means of
a lever fastened to the rail. All that portion
of the New York story respecting the super
human efforts of Hartmann and his associ-
ates in digging from the cellar of their
house under road to the line is therefore
purely imaginative, and it is the basis of
the whole narrative. Either Hartmann is
not on your side of the water or else he is
romancing.

Chinese Preferred to Japanese.
Letter to Boston Transcript

'tLetter to Boston Transcript
A better acquaintance with the characteris-
tics OF the japanese convinced us Of the gener-
al Justice OF our Consul's judgment. Our pref
udices in favor of the Chinese gained In
strength from all that we saw OF their mucn
yaunted rivals. OF the latter, the higher
class are courtly and smiling in their inter
course with foreigners, but there is evidently
little heart to their gentility. Chiiamen OF
equal rank are reserved on early acquaintance,
but cautiously become friends, and once ad-
mitting you to their friendship, you may rely
upon that element either in social or business
dealings One of the most evident signs OF the
superiority of the Chinese is seen in the fact
that a gang of operatives at any labor in Japan
is frequently headed or employed by China
man, who keeps their accounts, directs their
labers, and does all the brain work / never
saw number of Cinnamon in any case work
ing under a native OF Japan. / suspect the
reasons why general praise is bestowed on the
Japanese by the Americans may be found in
our pride as a Nation that the country was
opened to the world by our navy, and that, to
a certain extent, they form contrast to China
in adopting our customs our dress, and our in
ventions. l limit the sincerity Of this adspta-
tion purposely, because it seems to be the testt
mony of those who know them best that their
ickleness extends to even their views of mod
ern civilization; that is, that having modified
their ancient customs to conform in part TO
those of European nations, they immediately
assume that they are at the acme Of perfection,
that they have acquired everything desirable
that we know, and added 1t to their own ira
ditional lore.

Schools and Prisons.

The idea has gained extensive currency of
late that our wide spread and costly school
system does nothing to prevent or discour-
age crime, and that offences against law are
as common among the educated as among
the illterate. Of this allegation the oppo-
nents of an educational system have made
the most. At the annual meeting of the
National Educational Association at Phila-
delphia one DR.. Paxson made the astound-
ing assertion that sixtyper cent of the con-
victs in Philadelphia prisons were high
school graduates. Statements of similar
tenor have been made by others elsewhere.
Were they true we would be compelled to
regard our educational system as an igno-
minious failure.
But they are not true. The theory of the
school haters is not sustained by the facts.
DR.. Paxson's rash assertion has been taken
up and conclusively contradicted by DIR. J.
H. Wickersham, formerly superintendent of
Pennsylvania schools. He declares that
crime is usually associated with illiteracy.
and fortifies his statement by statistics. He
shows that during the year 1870, when this
fierce TRADE was made, 4S7 convicts we're re-
ceived at the Eastern Penitentiary of Penn
sylvania. OF these, 800 had entered the
public schools, but only 169 advanced to the
grammar grade, 80 had never been at
school and only Z had attended high
school for an average of two years, and
not one of the whole number was a
high school graduate. During the same
year 2,307 persons were sentenced to the
various jails and warehouses; of Pennsyl-
vania, and only IS were reported as having
a superior education; and not single high
school or college graduate was found among
them. Similar investigations showed that
not one convict, of native American birth,
In five hundred, throughout the United
States, is graduate of high school or col
lege. Statistics prove that, in New York, a
person wholly illiterate is six times as likely
to commit crime as one who can read and
write. In Massachusetts, only one in 126 of
the more or less educated are criminals,
while one in every twenty of the illiterate
belong to the criminal class. Only one in
every 566 of the more or less educated are
in the prisons of the State of Illinois, while
of the illiterate one out of every 1877 are
criminals. In Pennsylvania, the proportion
of illiterate criminals is ten times as great
as among those who have received COM
mon school education.
These statistics ought to be convincing.
They will be to any candid mind. Our
school system certainly has some grave
faults, perhaps many; but it is not nursery
of crime, and the false and foolish asser-
ton that it is deserves only contempt.

THE rise in the price of black walnut has
been the most remarkable fact in the lumber
trade during the last few years. The sup
ply was supposed until lately to be almost
inexhaustible. Forests of black walnut
were destroyed with as little compunction
as if they had been scrub oak. A few years
ago Michigan abounded in black walnut,
and this was the foundation of its furniture
manufactures. Now the State is stripped
of the timber. The furniture men were
driven first into Indiana. They cleared out
the black walnut in that State. Now they
have gone into the mountain regions of
Tennessee and Kentucky, and will soon
leave no valuable timber there. Canada is
not better off. The Toronto Globe says
that 800 per 81, 900 feet has been paid this
year for the same quality of black walnut
that could be bought last year for $40. The
accessible supplies of black walnut in the
Dominion have been used up.

Great American Debaters.

[Gath's interview with Stenographer Murphy Of the

was although Jefferson Davis was man OF
ability and certain high-toned intensity

made him an object of admiration he was
governed much by his personal feelings and

yindctive man. Clement @. Clay OF Alabama

Mrs. KERR, the widow of the Speaker, is
quoted as declaring that she has frequently
heard President Garfield say in the presence
of her husband and friends that he would
not live to more than As or so years. She
thinks he was superstitious in this respect,
and states that Mr.. Kerr would frequently
laugh at his fears and tell him that he would
live to be an old man. At this the General
would shake his head solemnly and say:
"No won't, Kerr; l tell you I shall not
