ooMFUzsoBF EDUCsTION.

But few persons appear to be aware
that we have law in this state re
quiring parents and guardians to sent
children under their care, between tn,
ages Of seven and fifteen, to publ,
or private school not less than twelve
weeks in each year.
The law subjects parents and guar
dams to proper penalties who neglecr
to comply with its provisions, als(
subjects school officers to fines who
fail to do their duty in the enforcement
Of the law. The law was enacted il
1879, but so far as learned there has
never been any steps taken for it's en-
forcement in this county; how it may
be in other parts of the state we do
not know. There is pressing need
for the enforcement of the law. The
necessity for it has been apparent in
this city the past year. Children of
school age have been roaming about
the streets with no visible employment
spending their time in idleness. This
is one of the causes why the State SUI
perintendent in his annual report had
such bad showing Of the condition of
the public schools; the number of
scholars reported as attending school
during the year, compared with the
number given by the school census,
showed the attendance to have been
dlscreditable in number. It is true
the number of scholars attending the
parochial or private schools helped to
make the showing unfavorable to our
public schools, but that alone does not
account for the marked discrepancy
between the number of school age and
those actually found in schools.
Wherever compulsory education has
been enforced, it's results have been
satisfactory. The state has made pro-
vision for the free education of all
children of suitable age, and if parents
and guardians, through earelessness
and neglect, do not avail themselves
of their duty, compulsory attendance
of their children should be required.
The state having done its duty in pro-
viding the means for general education,
cannot afford to be burdened with the
growing mass of ignorance and conse-
quent crime arising from the neglect
of accepting the prOffered good. The
fact that the institutions under our
form of government and their perpe-
tuity depend upon the education of the
people has long ago been accepted, and
needs no further argument to satisfy
sensible people. 1t, therefore, fol-
lows, if education be neglected, it is
the duty of the state to require its en-
forcement as means of protection.
Thousands of foreigners of all nation
alities are yearly coming to this state,
expecting to make this their future
home; many of these families take
little or no interest in the education of
heir children, yet in the near future
hey will be in the ranks of the SOW
sreigns who govern this great Republic. |
It has long been an acknowledged
maxim that the state owes every child
within its limits rudimentary educa-
ion. This being admitted, it legiti-
nately follows that every child should |
,e required to avail itself of the pro-
vision made for it.

RACINE COUNTY OLD SET
TIERS.

The old settlers of Racine county
held their fourteenth annual meeting
at Eagle Lake, sixteen miles west Of
Racine city, on Thursday of last week.
The number of persons present was
over 1000. The number in attendance
from the city was $50, of which 90
male and female were old settlers.
Since the organization of the society
fourteen years ago. there have been
412 members, of which 90 have since
died; present number of members, 800.
The day was delightfully."- pleasant, and
after the regular exercises the balance
of the time was spent in various
amusements by the younger people, and
by the old settlers IN talking over old
time events. Altogether, the occasion
was joyous one.
The annual meetings of the old set
tiers in nearly all of the neighboring
counties have now been held. The
annual meeting of the Kenosha coun-
ty old settlers occurs in the early part
of September. This is probably as well
chosen time as earlier in the season:
the people of the country have then less
pressing work than in the two proceed
ing months. The meetings of this
kind which have been held report an
increase of attendance over previous
years. 1t is hoped Kenosha county
will show no diminished interest in the
old settlers gathering in September
next, but that there may be additional
evidences of patronage by the people.

The Southern Pacific road.

We are requested to call the atten-
ton Of farm and lot owners to that
troublesome nuisance-C Canada thistle.
Patches of these are beginning to bios
som, and the seed will soon mature and
be scattered broadcast. Chapter 143
session laws 1880 requires every cor
poration and person owning or occu-
plying lands upon which Canada
thistles are growing to effectively pre-
vent their going to seed. Supervisors
OF highways are required to destroy
these thistles on the roads in their
respective districts, and where the oc-
cupants of lands adjoining highways
neglect to destroy them, the highway
supervisor shall cause it to be done
and his compensation is to be allowed
by the town board. The law applies
to cities as well as towns, and pre-.
scribes penalties for neglect to observe
its requirements.

The Republican State Convention OF
Pennsylvania, which assembled at Har

lasting, was bridged over to the salts

CHOLERA.

From the latest accounts, the cholera
appears to be spreading in Egypt;
Notwithstanding all the precautionary
measures to arrest its progress, that
lnsldlous disease battles the efforts Of
human skill. The report that the
cholera has reached some of the Euro-
pean cities does not appear to be well
founded.

Henry Ward Beecher spent last Sun
day in Chicago, and preached in the
First Presbyterian Church in the
morning, to an audience estimated at
$500 people, crowding every sitting
and standing place in the spacious edi-
Ace. The church was completely
packed long before the hour of services
and multitudes who came at the usual
hour were unable to find admission.
The Chicago papers give the sermon in
full. Mr.. Beecher is on his way to
Oregon and Puget Sound, taking his
Aoute by way OF the Northern Pacific
Railroad: He will return by way OF
the Southern Pacific road.

tornadoes of much violence have oc-
aired in this state and elsewhere, at
tended with great destruction of prop.
erty, and in some instances with loss
of life. At Fort Atkinson, Jefferson
county, the storm was very damaging;
also in northern portions of the state.
In the absence of other places of re-
fuge, families have learned to betake
themselves to the cellars of their
dwellings, which seems the best that
can be done in these emergencies.

last, aged As years. During his life he
visited most Of the important cities in

was presented to Queen Victoria, who
said to him he ought to have some
title, and suggested he should be
General;" from that time forward
he was called General Tom Thumb.

THE SUNDAY HAUL.

The Net Well Filled Through the Efforts
OF the Police.
In the language Of Muldoon the Sunday
haul Of the police net is usually bird,
and last Sabbath was no exception to the
rule. Why man should eelect Sunday as
a day On which to court Silenus, is one of
the things that no fellow can find out
excepting that perhaps the heathsns who
indulge in their tipple on this day don't
know how else to dispose Of their time,
and it must be confessed that in this gen
Grafton such nan must be a knave or
fool. While the bull pen was crowded, a
majority of the cases were for minor Of
fenses. A half dozen linlbers were fined
five bills each, and they paid the scrip, ard
several v8gs were ordered to skip out of
town.
John Carlson walked into court or his
stamps, but this was no fault of his, for
he had 10 legs. He was charged with be-
ing vag, aud he was sent up for thirty
days.
Sam Demara kicked in thu doovs of his
neighbor's castle and he was up on the
charge OF disorderlg. It cost him $40.
A talented young man, who used to be
en- ornament in his circle and who has
held number of positions of trust, was
up on the charge of disorderly. He went
to the concert st Turner hall Sunday night
and after filing up en- bulge he raised
merry perdition. It being his first appear
| ance, sentence was suspended.
Ed Burke, the too happy father, who got
full and raised ned because an keir was
born to his house, was charged with as
sault, and he wens up for thirty days.
James Maherty, John Campbell and ".

table is also taught IS well as the serving
of the food and liquids. To many of
these exercises is also added an amusing
little game which adds to their attractive
ness.
Are there any further lessons given in
the science of house wifery!
| Nothing but those which are incidental
to those described. After these comes a
series of object lessons in marketing and
cookery. Enlarge black charts are dis
played pictares of the OK, the lamb and
the pig, the best aud the poorest meats
being marked ont on the animals and in
structions are given therefrom what to
| buy and how to buy, how to select the best
and tenderest, what is fresh, what to Sc
lect for different preparations of meat
food, how to cook and how long to cook.
Illustrated pamphlets are also
furnished from which the pupils are taught
how to market, prepare and cook the
same.
The lady also said that, speaking from
experience, not only were the homes Of the
children receiving instruction in the Kitchen
Garden made more comfortable and happy,
but these lessons taught them habits of
order, tidiness and cleanliness; one of the
requisites of admission to class being a
clean dress, white ruffie about the neck
and clean, white apron.
Mrs McClees further stated that the
twenty-five young ladies in her st. Paul
class were receiving tuition from her that
they might in connection with the st.
Paul Young Women's iChristian Temper
ance association teach children's classes in
this branch of study, for which they will
charge fee for children Of parents who
are able to pay for the same, and in addi-
ton they will have charity classes in which
they will instruct children Of parents who
are of moderate means, free.
Her present GLASS in this city, she re-
marked were very enthusiastic, and CON
templated public exhibition of the Kitoh-
en- Garden work within few months, in
order to give parents practical illustra-
ton of its teaching and The benefits to be
derived by their children therefrom.
There was a very large school in Mime
apolis who were making great progression,
while IN the east the work
ives being vigorously carried
forward as an important adjunct
10 their temperance efforts. She was Of
the opinion, as we'll as was the
GLOBE representative, that the
time was not far distant when
cities and towns would have Kitchen Gar
den departments of study in their public
schools, and would make as generous ap
preparation for the support of the same as
they do for other branches of education.
In fact, she said that in some of the states
the proposition was already under discus
sion to make knowledge Of the Kitchen
Garden work one Of the accomplish ments
necessary to the graduation of teachers il
the normal institutes.
