SENATOR STEWART, who was lately

himself, has intI oduccd bill to "emanci-
pate the people from bondage to the poll

If, as the Philadelphia Record says,
the percentage of students who gradu-
ated from the normal schools now in the
ranks of the teachers of the state who
have been over two years in the business
since graduating is intinitesimally small, "
it is indeed time to consider whether the
state has not been unduly cxtravagant in
its appropriations to institutions which
ale doing academic rather than normal
work. We feel quite certain that the
Records is an under estimate and that it
exaggerates when it says the faculties of
normal schools ''receive two, three and
four times AS much in salaries as other
teachers of like grade and qualifications,
or as the same person could obtain in any
other schools or occupations" But it is,
nevertheless, true that there is good
grounG for the complaint that too often the
normal schools essay too much academic
work, seeing that they are supported for
other purposes.

AT the instance of Republican
member vote was taken in the House
at Harrisburg, yesterday, to increase tie
officers of that body. The Democratic
members voted down the proposition
from which it is to be inferred
that they think they have Off
GERS enough. Whenever it is mani
fest that they haven't, nobody can
reasonably object to them increasing the
number to meet the demands cf the pub.
lie service. Meantime the Democratic
members need to be on their guard
against Republican devices to put them
into the position OF abandoning the re-
form record which they made for them
selves at the opening of the session.
Mr.. Ziegler is reported to have said in
,he debate, yesterday, that had he been
clerk he would have appointed fifteen
pages instead of six and there are other
persons who growl because Chief Clerk
Meek does not have forty women engaged
every night doing work which he finds
twenty can do. All of Which only
proves what a happy deliverance for the
state it is that Mr.. Meek is chief clerk
and not Mr.. Ziegler, nor those other
accommodating people who think it is
the duty of the House clerk to support
all the deserving and needy people of
Harrisburg out of his contingent fund.

A Reasonable GrOvI.

A number of persons residing in the
western section of the city complain that
they are frequently put to great inconve-
nience in getting to their homes, because
the street cars, which usually run to Mil
lersville at o o'clock, p m, are in the
habit of standing in front Of the Cooper
house until II o'clock p. NJ, and some
times later, to accommodate Millersville
passengers who may be attending enter
tainments at the opera house. The
GROWERS do not object to a late train for
those people, but they claim that the cars
should leave the Cooper house at o'clock
and run to the city limits, taking home
passengers living in the west end, and
then return for the Milersville passengers
1t would be better for the horses to make
the trip to the west end and return rather
than allow them to stand shivering in the
cold for two or three hours, and it wouldn't
be much trouble for the driver while it
would be a great accommodation to west
enders who depend Oh the street cars to
take them to their homes.

SPORTING TOPICS.

The Case of Mace and slade, the PugilIsts
| The examination in the case of James
Mace and Herbert Slade, the pugilists,
charged with getting up boxing match,
came off in New York, Wednesday. After
| hearing the testimony of Police Inspector
| Thorne and Mace, as to the definition of a
| sparring contest, the judge said it was very
| important that the case should be settled,
| but that his decision would not settle it.
He then held the prisoners in $500 each
| tor trial and paroled them to the care OF
| their counsel, who said he would serve a
writ OF certiOrari in the morning.
Participants In Prize Fights Dying.
The condition of McFerron, one of the
principals in prize fight which recently
took place at Rochester, Pa, is reported to
be very serious and slight hopes are en-
tertained of his recovery. A Swede named
ellison, who fought several weeks ago near
Sharon, Pa, is also said to be dying from
the effects of injuries there received. The
referees and other participants in the
fights are preparing to leave the city in
the event of their death.

to whom it seemed to be right to do
otherwise, they all promptly voted to
confirm the appointment Of Mr.. Cas-.
sidy, which was distasteful to many of
them. In the matter of some later ap-
pointments, involving delicate questions
of law and executive prerogative, as
well as political and party policy, the
Democratic senators have been embar-
rassed by having questions precipitated
upon them without notification or con-
sultation, in which they have been COM
PEELED to follow their individual opinions,
leading some notably strong men and
trusted Democrats like Senators Hall
and Coke into position of what seems
like hostility to the administration.
Quite naturally this is a source of un-
easiness to the Democratic senators and
should be matter of early accommoda
tiOn between them and the administra
ton. An approach to it OH either side
should be promptly met in good spirit by
the other. The party in the state has

TIE thinnest excuse ever made by pub

upon those taking passes" How much
more odium they cast upon themselves !.

THE KEY TO CARLYLE's GENIUs.-In

correspondence there is passage from
Emerson's note book, upon Carlyle, that
may well serve to start us upon our
course in this essay. He has" says
Emerson, MANLY superiority rather
than intellectually )" there is more
character than intellect in every SEN
tenee." This fact, with the consequent
steep inclination CT all Catlyle's faculties
toward personality or personal prowess,
affords the master-key to him, to his life,
his works, his opinions, and is brief
summary of much that l have written
upon him. He was a man of vehe-
ment and overweenimg conoeit in
man. A sort of anthropological greed
and hunger possessea him, an Unsuitable
craving for strong. picturesque characters,
and for contact . nd conflict with them.
This was his r1ling passion land 1t
amounted to y,oison) all his days. he
fed his soul on heroes and heroic qualities,
and all his lite rary exploits were search
for these thin gs. Where he found them
not, where 'le did not come upon some
trace OF fnem in books, in society, In
politics, saw only barrennsss and tu-
tility. He was an idealist who was IN.
