THE ESSENCE OF WOMANLINESs.
A School Ma'an Thinks 1T Best Preserved
in Separate Schools.

In Separate Schools.
ST. PAUL, July 5.-At to-day's session of
the National. Council Of JEdu cetion the re-
port of the committee ON the education Of
girls waf taken up. Chairman John Han
cook, of Ohio, gave report on the subject.
"co-Education of the Sexes" Mr.. Han
cock is strong believer in co-education
and he advanced many reasons for main
tanning his position. The report was fol-
lowed by a lively and interesting discus
sion. in which some difference of opinion
was exchanged. E. E. White, of Ohio,
was fearful that co-education might often
result in serious impropriety on the part
of students. The most prominent feature
of the discussion was the reply of Miss
Conway, of Memphis, Tenn, who has a
private school. She argued that exclusive
education was the best, as in such colleges
1t was easier to preserve and foster that
essence which we call womanliness. Mr..
Hancock in his closing remarks said that
the ordinary rules which govern society
will govern boys and girls in school. Ober-
lin college was cited. At the afternoon $685.
sion there was report on the subject, ''the
professional junction of the polytechnic
schools, made by Langdon s. Thompson.

and that these three had been holding a
conference. shook hands with Mr.. Day
and We sat down together. After some
conversation Mr.: Day confessed that none
of the National League clubs was making
money, and said that the Clevelands and
Pittsburgs were ready to quit at moments
notice.
"sThere are four clubs, however, said
he, that have agreed to stick the season

Players League were losing no money and
that did not see that it was to their inter

unfolded his object. It was first an ANAL

TO 90 toward the formation of an assooi-
alton.
'sDay asked me to Law the proposition be-
fore the players when met them in Cleve-
land, and although I told him what their
answer would be promised to do go. When
they arrived yesterday I held conference
with the boys, put Mr.. Days proposition
before them. and they promptly sat upon IT,
Just as knew they would.
"Mr. Day also tried to pave the way to a
conference with Glasscock, who wanted
something in behalf of the amalgamation,
but as did not speak Glassoook's language
refused" ~
Ewing declares he doesn't believe the Ma
