Our schools IN Danger.

The schools must 60, says Mon
siegnor Capel in one OF his late adj
dresses. He says: "There are good
many Catholics in this country s.
600, 900 somebody says. Your public
school system is inadequate for them,
and they are going to leave it. Sup
pose that the church sends out an
authoritative command to the Cath
olics to start schools in every parish,
and support them, and send all Cath
olic children to them. Itcan be done
by the utterance of word, sharp as
the click of trigger. That COM
mand will be obeyed. New schools
will spring up everywhere. What
will be the rcsult2 Afight Do you
suppose some millions Of people are
going to pay taxe@twice over-once
for their own schools, and again for
Protestant schools, from which they
get no benefit? If it isn't down
right fight, it will be at least the war
like condition--a million or two of
voting, tax paying citizens hostile to
the government"
But who is to blame if they get no
benefit? The schools are open to
them and they are just as suitable
for the making Catholic children
good citizens as Protestant children,
and that is the object OF them. Civil
government has nothing to do with
churches and church dogmas. These
belong to the individual churches;
but civil government has to do with
making good citizens; and to do this
education is nccessary-aye, educa-
tion in morals, with the Bible basis:
and if Catholics do not avail them
selves of the privilege of our com
mon schools, well and good, but they
have no claim to exemption from tax
es in the premises. If man places
bandage over his eyes so that he
cannot enjoy the gas-light of our
streets at night, that is no reason
why he should be exempt from pay
ing his proportion OF the tax for
lighting the streets. Indeed he is
benefited nevertheless, for his neigh
bors see by the light, and so do not
|jostle against him. So with the Cath
olics, if they are so blinded that they
can not receive direct benefit from
the schools, they are nevertheless
benefited by having their Protestant
neighbors made good citizens. They
find Protestant countries good places
to which to emigrate. They should
therefore pay their tax without grum.
bling, even if they do not use the
best schools for their own children
This Is so clearly duty that we dc
not apprchend any fight about it

\ PHILADELPHIA DEFAULTER.
The Absconding of Eugene g. Wood
ward, Treasurer of the Board of
the General Presbyterian As
sembly, With $4,000.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May THE news
that Eugene G. Woodward, Treasurer of
the Board of Trustees of the General AS
sembly of the Presbyterian Church, and
Treasurer Of the Church Board of Educa-
ton in this city, was a defaulter and had
fed, created the most profound sem
sation in church circles. 1t
fell like dynamite charge
upon the trustees, whose con-
fidence in him was implicit. Mr.
Woodward's family are wholly unable to
account for his desertion of them, as
their relations have always been of the
happiest character. Woodward's init
mate friends are at loss for some ex-
cuse for his financial shortcomings, the
more charitable advancing the theory
that his mind was unbalanced. Mr.,
Woodward is tifty-four years Of age, has
wife and seven children, and occupied a
comfortable home at Ridley Park. He had
been connected with the Board Of Trustees
for the past twelve years, and for
several years has been its trusted Treas
urer, handling thousands of dollars held
in trust by the Board, and at no time
were his accounts found in error so much
as cent. Even his failure to put in an
appearance on Wednesday and the day
| following did not cause suspicious. His
son, who is employed as a clerk in the
| Office, was first to break the news to the
family and also to the officers of the
Board, declaring that he knew nothing of
his fathers whereabouts.
| EXAMINING THE pnrVs
The accounts were then inspected
when a $4,000 deficit was shown Of
funds belonging to the Board and which
had been paid to Mr.. Woodward. Then
rumors were recalled of financial trouble
of an ugly character in which the miss.
ing treasurer had figured. He is said to
have given way on many occasions to his
generous impulses and loaned funds
without security; but the most plausa-
Bile theory is that he is not unfamiliar
with the ways of the Mining Exchange
and that there is where the trouble had
| its foundation. Mr.. Woodward's rem.
tation is that of an exemplary Christian
gentleman, having no personal extrava.
gances and living entirely withina reason.
able and modest income.
The Board of Education, which is the
real sufferer, is fully secured and no eff
forts will be made to apprehend Wood
ward.
