Education Of the Home.

The ideal home is prime factor
IN education. They take a narrow
view, indeed, who regard the home
merely as convenient boarding
house. Many there are Of such lin
ited view, although they do not make
public admission of the fact. In
truth, home is not the place where
we eat and sleep only, but where the
heart and mind should be trained,
and where every noble element Of
manhood should be developed for the
future battle of life. They err, too,
who persuade themselves that the
youth who has passed through the
various grades Of these institutions
has received his education. The
truth is that by the study OF these

Useful TRALNIyG FOE CHILDREN

The Children's Industrial Exhibition now open In
this city illustrates peculiarly interesting phase
of great movement for the more systematic and
extens We application of art to industry For hf.
teen years this movement has been ID ing more OF
less rapid progress il England. on the Continent
and in this ntry. In a general way the lmpOr-
tance of the sube ect has been recognized. but the
present exhibition of work done by children with
hands rs well as brains has been needed a
practical demonstration. 1t is gratifying to find
that dong much in the way of industrial
training for the young, and yet We of New-York
especially should realize how much remains to he
done. This exhibition shows that the time and
labor of teachers have not been wasted. Clearly
children take naturally to such training They like
to occupy themselves with things they are curious
and initiative they pleased to feel themselves
producers of something. These inclnatons the
teacher can readily direct into useful channels and
this at no cost to the usual studies. This does not
mean an added tax upon the child's strength but II
is rather a relief from the study OF books At the
most susceptible time Of life these pupils familiar
ize themselves with the implements and tools which
many will use throughout their lives All this is
elementary training. The various articles IN the
present exhibition are not to be judged as the work
of mechanics OF artists Yet these articles show
most creditable manual dexterity. a developing
appreciation of beauty, and little progress in
artistic designs.
Such training must appeal to every thoughtful
visitor as approp riate and valuable. The child who
learns to use his hands school better fitted for
almost any vocation. lie becomes more intel-
gent and more valuable citizen There is some
reason in the suggestion that manual training may
help the solution OF social problems. The skilled
workman has more at stake than the un-killed
laborer and his work commands a higher price for
every additional degree of intelligence which 1t
represents If we are to hold our own in the inner
manufactures, we must not overlook the progress
made by England, France. Germany and Belgium

nimo had precisely the same reasons Tor not
surrcndering when he promised to surrender,
this explanation is hardly sufficient. Dut II
seems that it is incorrect TO say the Apache and
his twenty braves escaped if they were not
prisoners. 1t looks rather as n Generai Crooh
had put too much confidence In the honor oi an
Indian whose Characteristic bad faith has for
years been notorious on the frontier. lhough
undoubtedly possessing force enough to nave
compelled a surrender even at the risK OF
stubborn fight, no measures to that end appear
to have been taken. The United States COM
mander dealt with the Apache as he would have
dealt with civilized enemy operating IN con-
formty with the laws of war. Geronimo was
allowed to arrange the interview himself, and
probably nothing but reflection as to the con-
sequences prevented him from carrying out his
original intention, The interview having
resulted in no agreement, the troops remained
inactive and Geronimo and his murderous band
quietly went away, whittier nobody knows.
General Forsyth said at was Impossible 10
sfathom Geronimo's intentions, and 1t was an
aopen question whether he would go south ana
"ion Mangus, or remain and haIass inc
frontier settlers"
That is a cheerful hearing for the frontier
settlers certainly. and in the circumstances IL
is not to be wondered at that they demand the
organization of couple of cowboy regl-
ments to deal with the Apaches. Inc
settlers are entitled to protection. Tue Army
has failed to give it them. Another long and
costly campaign has nothing TO show Tor 1t but
the scattered graves of murdered and una
venged American citizens. The cowboys could
not do worse than this, aud they might easily
do much better.

THE ESCAPE OF GERONIMO.

A dispatch from Washington says that the
escape of GeroniIdo from Lieutenant Maus
causes much chagrin in army circles" and the
statement may well be true, for the event is
difiicult to explain OH any theory compatible
with the retention of confidence in the vigi-
lance of the Apache chiefs custodians. The
most recent intelligence, however, makes the
mat er still worse. for it is alleged that Gero-
nimo Was allowed, at his first intery lew with
General Crook, to ambush that officer and his
staff, whose lives were at the mercy of the
Indians. and who were apparently within an
ace of furnishing the materials for such another
massacre as the ModOcs perDetrated upon
General Candy and his party in the Lava Beds
several years ago. II is stated that Geronimo
- had his men with rifles ready to fire upon all
q the white men. including General Crook, at

wishing in his heart that he had never been
born. This is true even of the members OF the
Comfy Democracy who enjoy the active sym
pathy and support of so influential leader as
Maurice B. Flynn.
1t was a strangely bold and reckless policy
for Mr. Flynn to champion the cause OF the
accused Aldermen and to oppose the purgng
of his organization. 1t was in effect an admls-
sion that the County Democracy formed body
of such a character that men guilty OF taxing
brbes should not be cast out. MIR. Flynn prac-
tically confesses in this way that Jaehne ana
men of his class are fit political associates for
himself and his fellow leaders of the faction.
We do not say that we disagree with him, but
he certainly by his course helps to justify the
worst things ever said about the compositlon'
aims and influences of the body in which he is
conspicuous and masterful. Plainly Flynn has
no stomach for purgngs and no fancy Tor IN
vestigations. But he should reflect that bis
defence of the implicated Aldermen is not likely
to dispel the peculiar clouds now hanging over
