LOYAL WOMEN OF NORTHWEST PENNSYLVANIA.
DEAR TRIBUNE: The last Of a series of socials
given by Strong Vincent Relief Corps No 8 was
another grand and unique success for which the
loyal women of our little city ON the banks of Lake
Erie have become justly famous. The first part
consisted of music. both vocal and Instrumental
followed by address delivered by Mrs. J. NJ.
Reavley Department Inspector and Secretary of
our Corps. The address explained the working of
the Order and also y plea for the admission of
all loyal women OF the land TO Order. Although
this has become law of the Order, the plea was
timely, our Corps Is comparatively speaking still!

remarks were intended not only to acquaint the
public with the aims of association but also to
give tia better understanding of the fact that we
do not close our doors to . loyal women" who hap
pen not 10 be the mother, wife, sister or daughter
o veteran. The remarks We're closed by the poem
"'rhc Regiments Return" From the strict stten-
ton given and the applause at the close, the large
audience seemed fully TO understand and appreciate
the remarks which were rendered in the usual
happy manner of our esteemed Secretary end with
a pathos and feeling which caused many an eve 10

emotion.
Following came vocal music, diaiog, called

and recitation by Mrs. J. Williams rendered in n
most happy manner and with the original bropue

of laughter and long applause. Next came more
music and Rotations by Miss Lugenbeel daughter

VICTORIOUS STAR RoUTERs,

The star route prosecutions have proba-
bly, been brought to an end. The defeat of
the government in the civil suit, by which
it undertook to recover money from the
PARKERs of Kansas, will end the proceed
ings against the star route ring. aThe PAR
KERs were backed by the Kansas senators,
and consequently it was not a difficult mat
ter to find Kansas jury to give verdict
in their favor. From IS, 600, 900 to S10,-
600, 600 was stolen from the government by
the star route gang, and as yet not one dol
lar has ever been recovered. Hundreds of
thousands of dollars have been poured into
the hole where the lost millions went in a
vain effort to get something back and to
punish the robbers. There is very dark
blot resting on the department of justice,
which will stand for long time as a dis
grace to the government. There is one
consolation. however. The people can pre-
vent another Republican administration,
under which such frauds have been COM
mitted, from ever taking the reins of gov
eminent again.

A MISTAKEN SYSTEM.

There is something wrong in the modern
system of education. Its results are not
what they ought to be. There is too much
tendency to enervate the intellect as well
as to destroy the physical perfection of our
young people. In other words, there is too
much book examining and not enough of the
rough and tumble experiences to qualify
young people for the battle of life. The
other day brilliant young graduate of
Yale college applied the pistol to his heart
in Connecticut town, because, as he said
just before dying, "When man cannot get
money enough to get shaved with it is time
to 60" The mistake in that young mans
education was indicated by the impression
on his mind that it was a disgrace to allow
his beard to grow and an unwillingness to
60 to work at anything he could find. The
kind of an educational system we need is
one that will qualify young man to dig a
ditch as well as to adorn senate. The
principal result of our present system is to
develop the capacity for anticipation-thus
intensifying hope and rendering more
poignant disappointment. The first brush
with the world, in nine cases out of ten,
after the graduate enters upon practical life
brings defeat. Then the intellect, which
has been educated in languages and sciences,
but has not been educated so as to bring out
the manhood of the student and fit him for
living, becomes harsh and cynical or droopS
with despair. Life becomes unpleasant and
morbid fancy and unhappy reflection usurp
the domain of reason. The disappointed
man or woman argues that there is no use
in prolonging disappointment and misery,
and under the depression of gloom drifts out
into the silent night of suicide.
