A rather breezy meeting was held last
evening by the Bayonne Board of Educa-
ton. Trustee Kerley reported that nothing
had been accomplished toward remedy
ing the wretched sanitary condition OF
School No. 6. Later in the session Trustee
Staunton again brought up the matter OF
the sanitary condition of all the school
buildings. He found the condition Of
affairs, particularly in Schools Nos. 2, 3.

health. He suggested the use OF power
full, but pleasant smelling disinfectants.
The matter was referred to the Com mmittee
on Supplies.
President Flugel read a communi-

In order to give the Courts some basis
for recognition of the application of ex-
School Trustee Thomas Doyle for de.

Humphreys, his successor in the Board,
moved that Doyle be accepted as the
Boards Secretary. The motion was lost

THE LOST ONES.
How Little Children Get Astray and
Are Picked Up in the Big
Cities.

Between three and four Thousand chill
dren get astray during a year in the city
of New York, but the system of caring
for the little ones is SO admirably ar
| ranged that you never hear Of child
| dying in the streets for lack of food or
shelter, or failing to reach its parents or
guardians, unless it has been purposely
set astray.
The place to look for stray children Is at
the police building on Mulberry street, on
| the top floor, which has come to be known
as the .'Sky Parlor," and they are brought
there from all parts Of the city, often as
range from toddlers of a ySSar old to those
six and eight years. Some of them are so
| little that they are not able to speak
| plainly, and others are SO bewildered that
! they do not reme mber even the numbee
of the street where they live, or the part
largest number Of children is registered
| at the Sky Parlor:" on rainy or very
cold days there may not be one.
| d Children get astray in many ways, and
the largest num Der is brought In when a
circus parades through the town. for the
little folks run after it, and often run
, along with the crowd for dozen blocks,
not thinking that they are getting so far
away from home. They also follow
hurdy-gurdy men and organ grinders,
national or other parades, ana frequently
follow crowd when a policeman Is tax
ing prisoner to the station house.
Some children leave their homes owing
/ to the cruelty of their parents or guard
ians, and scores of little boys and girls
, every year run away from their homes at
points outside the city, the conductor
passing them along when they say they
have no money. But the thoughtful con-
ductor questions the child carefully, and
ii he fluids that 1t is running away from
home, he takes or sends it back; or else,
on arriving in the city. has 1t sent to the
home of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Children" But a nun Der
of the waits found astray in the streets
are put there by parents and guardians,
who want to go off to Coney Island or
elsewhere for u day or two. An officer
who has charge of stray children max es
this statement:-
'.There are hundreds of parents in New
York who purposely put their children
asrray in the streets. A mother, father
or guardian sets out for the ferry, bound
for some place out of town, aud when a.
police STATION is neared, the guardian or
parent stops some one in the street and
says, Il have found this child in the
street; will you take 1t to the station, as
have to catch the ferry at once The
child is too little to explain. and Is led off
by the stranger to the station, where 1t Is
registered. This tbing,'' the officer con-
timed. lis done to such an exte Mt that 1t
has become a nuisance to the police de-
partment. OF course, when the parent or
guardian returns, the child Is reclaimed,
and many fictitious tears are shed and
false kisses given to the little one. -

GREAT Journalism-The Herald in
Chile

Great JOurnalism-The Herald In
Chile
Speaking of the story cabled to the
Herald from Chile, that President
Balmaceda had escapedato the United
States flagship in the guise of a
drunken sailor, the Philadelphia
Press says: 1T is pity that the
Herald correspondent should mar his
good work in, Chile by such pictur-
esque lie as that concerning Admiral
Brown" We think this is a some
what illiberal remark. If one stops
to think of the whirl of conflicting
stories and arumors that must pervade
q country in such situation as Chile,
the wonder Is that only one mistake
should have been made by
the correspondent in discriminating
between the truth and falsehood OF
the thousand stories that reached his
ears. A day or two after the error
was committed, it was more than
compensated by the true story of Bal
maceda's suicide, which was sent ex-
clusively to the Herald, and which
has been officially confir med. This
was certainlyas much ofa news beat
as the original t~announcement>o the
defeat of'the Balmacedan forces.
The work of the Herald in this
Chilean war far surpasses anything
that has been done by American
newspapers in years. 1t has never
been surpassed, from news point OF
view, except by the Herald itself. 1t
is not so much the financial element
that counts-though it probably has
cost the Herald forty or fifty thousand
dollars-as the enterprise and fore
sight, the energy and skill whichHsaw
the prospect of big news from afar,
made all the necessary plans for
getting it, and then landed it in
prompt season, while all the other
newspapers in the world looked ON in
disnay.
If any question had ever seriously
arisen IN the public mind as to which
was tEegreatest American newspaper,
the Chilean affair would suffice to
settle 1t for a decade at least. Any
newspaper can spend money, but it
takes brain and method to secure re-
suits for the expenditure.

can all get together upon platform

In his great speech at Mansfield on
Saturday Mr.. Mills told the farmers
of Ohio and of the country that there
could be no advantage to them in the
wholesale purchase by the government
of silver at an exorbitant price. He
showed them that it might put mill
lions in the pockets of horde of
hungry mine owners, but by debasing
the currency, byreducing the real value
of the circulating medium it could

Gardener Saunders OF the Department of
Agriculture to a Washington Star re-

never apply water to a plant until it re-

apply sufficient quantity to soak it.
"Novices in plant culture usually make
the mistake of merely sprinkling the sur

under such conditions; the surface will
appear wet. while the main body OF the
soil is hard and dry. One drawback to
properly watering plants in parlor and
window gardening arises from the incon-
venience attending the use of water in
sufficient. quantities; another evil Is the
dryness of the air,
'Both of these obstacles to success can
be greatly modified by the use of a table
properly fitted for the reception of the
flower pots or small vases in which the
plants are kept. This table may be of
any required size; a surface of two by
three teet would be suitable for most
windows; 1t mould be made tight and
neatly fitted A ledge is made by fasten-
ing strip three inches wide around the
ledge; thed fill with two inches of clean,
white sand, upon which the plants are
placed. Lining the table wirh Zinc would
completely guard against drip.
''There are a few general rules with re-
gard to watering plants which may be
noted. Watering should be preferably
applied during the early part of the day,
especially so in the winter season. Plants
in pots we'll supplied with roots will re-
quire much more water than those which
are newly ported or have a quantity of
soil with few roots. Plants with mar
row or small failage will not use so much
water as those with large spreading
leaves. Plants in the shade will not need
as much water as will thuse N the sun.
But in cases when water is applied it
should be done copiously.
''In the pot culture OF plants, where
the amount of soil is limited, the use of
liquid manure is of vast service when
judiciousy applied, but much harm may
ue occasioned by its indiscriminate USE
