New YORK, Feb. 25.-The opening of the
stock market this morning was made at ad-
vances over last nights figures of from Is to 4
per cent generally and was accompanied by a
volume of business to which the market has
been a stranger for more than week.
This was owing. however. to the selling by
the traders induced by the higher
prices and the general dullness. the great ma
tority of the list being as neglected as usual.
the activity being confined to about half
dozen shares, among which st. Paul, Burling-
ton and Lackawanna were most prominent.
The weakest point in the market was the sugar
stock, which at 7oll showed decline Of IA
per cent from the opening figure. but it
was followed closely by burlington. which lost
IL at s2a, Atchison. Lackawanna and Rock
Island each large fractions but the other
movements were insignificant through srmpa-
thy with the downward tendency in the leaders.
Dizziness again interviewed toward the end Of
the hour, and while the decline made no further
progress there was no recovery, and at II
o'clock the market was heavy at the loves,
prices reached.
Money is easy at 2a21S per cen.. The volume
of business in the stock market gradually
narrow limits, and while there pre-
vailed firm tonc only slight changes
in quotations were made. st. Paul
and Burlington retained some of their
activity, but all the others became exceedingly
dull. Silver was more active, however. some
large blocks changing hands, and it shared in
the general improvement in the tone Of the
market. No other feature was to be noted, and
at noon the market was intensely dull and
steady at small fractions below the opening
prices.
Silver opened at 975<; highest sale 9753I, low
est sale 971s last sale 97si.

sooR ssr Sis :ubc. A1s EdS-
cation in the Public Schools" He said: 1.-THE
social development Of the last half centui y
shows steady growth in the recognition of tie
public school az one of the most important in
stitutions Of modern society. To the thought
full man the future presents a number Of social
problems Of the greatest import"
individual freedom from class and pro-
scriptive tyranny has, in a broad sense, been
secnred. Public opinion, the aggregate Of the
majority Of individual opinion, has become the
sole basis Of social order, and hence the bind
ing force in modern society il what the ma
jority of the people think or believe.
We need to bring the full significance Of
this fact before us and to consider that under
this social dispeneation all the baser elements
Of human nature are given as free play as are
the higher elements.
The social condition of man has now
reached high degree OF completely, and con-
portance OF training in all that makes for the
highest intellectual culture and refinement in
human life. With the absence Of the militant
power in our American state we base our insti-
tuition entirely upon the dominance of the
moral and spiritual faculties among men.
Success oan be hoped for only as all the higher
faculties Of men are brought into play upon
the side of justice and of virtue. To state the
problom in a few words, our duty il to organize
the forces that make for right living, that they
shall always be the dominant power in the SOW
