THE ELECTION OF STUDIES.

President Eliot, of Harvard, Talks Upon
Recent Educational Movements-The
Trend Is Toward the Choice by Students
| of Their Line of Work.
President Eliot, of Harvard College, was
| entertained last evening by the Harvard
College Club of Pittsburg at the Duquesne
| Club. A hearty reception was given him
BY the members of the association and by
| many representative citizens who, with their
wives and daughters, were invited for the
occasion. Previous to this, President
Eliot delivered most instructive
address upon recent educational move
ments in the United States. Those
to which he referred had taken place since
the Civil War, and the one of which he hrst
spoke was what is known as the elective sys-
tenn of studies. 1t had been opposed, he
said, at every step, until now no one
oping scholarship.
The question now is not as to the wisdom
OF this policy, but the extent to which it
may be safely carried. Alike in the Oldest
and newest academies and high schools
there is a choice between at least two
courses. Denver has three optional courses
in her high school, while the high school of
Kansas City offers eight courses to students.
He believed that the system would penetrate
lower, and it certainly should enter grammar
school grades. Another movement had been
the NATURALIZATION of instruction. 1t
had been introduced in the universities and
was also working downward. The plan was
that of one teacher addressing himself to
one student. This system could be intro
duced without difficulty In the public
schools as for instance in drawing. manual
training and the kindergarten.
Ali this works toward the implanting and
disciplining of power and vigor. 1t is not
the mere absorbing OF knowledge at which
the universities now aim, but the applica-
tion of that power. This change in the end,
of higher education, is of Importance with
reference to its successful use in after life.
1t does away with that old distinction be-
tween the practical man and the educated
man. Then there is the new type of
scholars brought about by these move
ments. He is deferential to the past
but not to the extent of allowing il
to govern the present Again there is the
different attitude of the university to re-
ligion. There are fewer denominational
colleges, and consequently more religious
liberation. President Eliot said that some
might ask whether these special studies did
metrical DEVELOPMENT. He thought not, as
the subjects of study were SO varied that no
one man could grasp them all.
At the conclusion of the address, Presi-
dent John II. Ricketson introduced Presi-
dent Eliot to the members of the associa-
Jion and the numerous guests, and the re-
mainder of the evening was most agreeably |
passed. President Eliot has a delightful |
manner on the platform.

HAPPINESS AT HOME.

Domestic Felicity Promoted-An Absence
of the Troubles Usually Aired in the
Quarter Sessions Court Ralph Waldo
Emerson a Free Man Again.
1t would seem that domestic felicity has
been promoted, lately, by some occult in
fuence, as there was but one case of family
scrapping of consequence billed in the
Quarter Sessions Court yesterday, and it did
not make its appearance when called In the
corridor, and the surety Of the peace cases
were very tame 1t was expected that yes
terday being the last of the term for
anything but license hearings, there would
be a rush of irate wives to have their Lares
and Penates fortified in their jurisdiction,
but it would seem they judged that in the
springtime their lords thoughts will lightly
turn to love, and there will be no trouble.
Beside, some liquor dealers are expected to
be on their good behavior for some time, and
not likely to sell liquor to vile beaterS or
deserters.
James Sullivan, James Cavanaugh and
William Cranfeld were the first to be called
to the bar, and an animated discussion en-
sued between Judge Magee and w. j. Bren-
men as to the power of handybilly to make
cuts on a mans head through his hat Mr..
authority on the subject than His Honor, as
he (Brennen) professed to have seen some
scrapping in his pilgrimage. The accused
were let off On payment of costs.
Frank Russell was in 4 penitent mood
according to the statement of his attorney,
and Mr.. Russell backed the declaration by
stating that he was very sorry he had looked
on the wine when it gave its color in the
cup, which had caused him to commit an as
sauIt and battery. Mr.. Russell stated that
his temper had been given him by his Gre
ator, aud seemed 10 think he ought to be
allowed an extenuatioD, but the Judge held
that he should not stimulate bad temper by

Attorney McElroy called up the case of
Ralph Waldo Emerson, committed by
Mayor Wyman, of Allegheny, on the 25th
of February, to the workhouse as sus-
picious character. Emerson works for the
Union News Company, and has consider
able property. Detective Steele, OF Allie
gheny, stated that Ralph Waldo
had been arrested and heard on a
charge of burglary, and that falling
to the ground, he was committed
as a suspicious character. Judge Magee
expressed himself somewhat plainly in this
method of doing business, aEd Detective
Steele stated that he wasn't the Mayor of
Allegheny, and had merely come to state
the city's case, the arresting officer being
sick. Emerson was discharged and his bail
released from liability.

Some Reading That Will Prove Interesting
to Young Mothers-How to Guard
Against the Disease.
Group is the terror of young mothers,
especially during the winter months, as it is
then most prevalent. To post them concern
ing the cause, first symptoms, treatment and
how to prevent it is the object of this
article
The origin of Group is common cold;
children that are subject to it take cold very
easily, and Group is almost sure to follow.
The first symptom of Group is hoarseness;
it is peculiar hoarseness, easily recognized
and once heard always remembered. Usually
day or two before the attack the child be-
comes hoarse and gradually shows symptoms
of having taken cold, and this is where the
mistake is usually made, the mother, think.
ing her child has just taken cold, gives it no
especial attention until awakened in
the night by the violent coughing of
the child. finds it has the Group and
remembers 1t has had a cold or been hoarse
for day or two. Such circumstances often
occur and in many cases the mother has
nothing in the house that will relieve it,
and may be several miles from q physician
or a drug store. You can we'll imagine the
situation and her distress. The time to act
is when the child first becomes hoarse or
shows symptoms of having taken cold. If
Chamberlain's Cough. Remedy is freely
given from that time on all tendency to
Group will disappear and all danger be
avoided. The remedy prevents fully 10, 900
cases of Group every year. 1t is the main
reliance of many mothers throughout the
Western States and Territories. They have
learned its value and how to use it, and in
those families Group is seldom known be-
cause it is always prevented. For sale by

SMOKE KNOCKED OUT
By the Bill Now in the Legislature 10
Regulate Coal Burning.
TIE CITY MAY HAVE CLEAR SKIES
If the Provisions of Senator Films
Measure Become Law.
HINTS FROM AN INTERESTED CITIZEN

| Pittsburg lies under pail of smoke, and
winter all this will have diappeared. At
present the city is powerless to prevent it,
but bill is now before the Legislature pro-
| viding for the regulation of the smoke
nuisance. 1t was drawn up by Collector
warmcastle, and has already been pre-
sented BY Senator Finn.
The bill gives all cities the right to regu-
late the burning of coal by ordinance and
fix penalties for Noncompliance. The in
tention is to compel the use'of smoke con-
sumers in all factories, mills. etc., and on
furnaces in private houses. One sec
tion of the bill provides that no patent de-
vice that will do the work shall be discrim-
mated against.
The bill is backed by the Pittsburg and
Philadelphia delegations and is sure TO pass
as soon as called up. Chief Bigelow, in
speaking of the matter yesterday, said the
bill was sure to be passed. Ordinances
would be drawn up at once and he would
see that they were strictly enforced. He
said the city could not afford to allow the
smoke nuisance to continue.
In this same connection an Interesting let
ter on the subject of the smoke nuisance
was sent to THE DISPATCH bv one Of
the leading attorneys st the Allegheny
county bar, who desires at this time to be
known as "John Smith" The letter is as
follows:
Permit me to add few words to emphasize
the thoughts in YOUR timely article on the
smoke nuisance. The article was just what
had been looking for for a long time. Six
months ago, when the mills and furnaces began
going back to COAL 1 said to myself: Will 1t be
possible that the people of Pittsburg, after five
or six years immunity from coal smoke, will
tamely permit resumption of the old order OF
things without a protest? As waited month
after month, began almost to despair, but
your recent editorial has inspired ME with
fresh hope.
People of Pittsburg, are you willing to go
back to the old days of smoke and CRIME with
out struggle? DO you not know that cleanli-
ness to our city means health, prosperity and
happiness; and that a smoky pail mears dirt.
disease and disgust? If there was no means Of
preventing the evil you would be without
blame; but when there are now half-dozen or
more understanding devices in successful
operation in this city and elsewhere, your su-
pIneness is without excuse.
Legislators at City Hail. cannot you lay
aside your Poor Farm schemes for a short
time to consider this most important question:
If you will only give us some good, practical
legislation on this vital subject we will forgive
your past plumbers and will not kick on the
tax millage. In brief, we are willing to do any
thing short of gong to jail if you will only
abate this smoke nuisance.
Yours for cleanliness, JOHN SMITH.

/. CURE OF CONSUMPTION.

A Southsider Who Is Being Benefited by the
Koch Lymph h-Now an Inmate of a
Philadelphia Hospital, Where He Is
Doing Nicely. ....-...r.
William Schultz, Southside glassworker,
has been at the German Hospital in Phila-
delphia for some time for treatment under
the Koch lymph process for consumption.
In letter to his brother-in-law, f. N.
Stucky, of 1923 Carson street, he e1-
plains the treatment. After thorough
diagnosis OF his case the doctors decided
that both of his lungs were affected, and he
was put in the Koch ward. He had to wait
for two weeks before he received any OF the
lymph, owing to the number of patients
ahead of him.
Last Tuesday he received the first injec-
ton, one-half milogram, under the right
shoulder. It made him little feverish at
first, but he thought he felt better in a short
time. On Wednesday the second injection
was given him, one milogram, under the
left shoulder blade, which he thought made
decided change for the better. The third
injection was to be given him on Friday,
the date OF his letter, but it had not been
given at the time of writing.
MT. otucky states tnat ever since the
announcement of the Koch discovery Mr..
Schultz wanted to be treated by it, and was
one of the first applicants for treatment at
the Mercy Hospital, in this city. but he
became impatient at the delay in the arrival
of the lymph, and when he heard of there
being a supply in Philadelphia, nothing
would satisfy him but to go there.
"From the tone of his letter." adds Mr..
Stucky, 81 think it is doing him good. He
is Frightening up considerably, and seems
to take notice of little things. He says the
food is excellent and the nurses are very
kind. His only objection is that he was
disturbed every four hours, night and day,
to have his temperature and pulse taken"
Altogether, Mr.. Stucky takes a hopeful
view of the case, and thinks the treatment
will result In a complete cure to- Mr..
Schultz.

COLLINS GETS A REPRIEvE.

The Plucky Young Faster Has Another
Chance TO Finish His Task.
''I have got reprieve." Such was the

were DIR. Frank Mcdonald, Police Surgeon
Mover and DR.. j. w. Heustis, with Messrs.
Sterrett, Hess, Milligan and Armstrong,

faster. The discu ssion lasted over an hour,
Collins was put through a careful examina-
tion. with the following results: Weight,
1877; pulse. 76; temperature 1000; respira-
tion, 70.
With the aid of one of the students DR..
Meyer fought sturdily for the enforced end
ing of Collins attempt. But for DIR. Heus-
tbs, who intertered with compromise, the
police surgeon might have carried the dav.
1t was finally agreed to proclaim truce for
the time being, thus giving the faster all to-

Council, said he was in favor of making an
example of those who were responsible for
bringing disrepute upon the organization so
that others who seek personal notoriety.
rather than the development of the true
principles of the organization, may know
how to conduct themselves.
A. l.. Solomon and H. r. Peck other
members of the National Council spoke in
the same strain.
1t is known generally who was responsible
for the action of Valley Forge. A year ago
this radical member made motion for the
appointment of committee for the same
purpose, but his Councillor ruled the motion
out of order. This year he took advantage
of his Council when there were less than a
dozen members present, and as conse-
quence the order is made to suffer.
