According to the Chicago Herald
New York's Board Of Education is con
sidcring proposal to Danish the teach
ing Of French and German in the public
schools OF the city. At present French
and German arc taught in five grades of
the schools to about 25, 900 children,
100 minutes per week being devoted to
these languages. French and German
are optional at present with the trustees
of the various schools, and the system
has heretofore given satisfaction. The
principle Of giving instruction in branches
demanded BY majority of the parents
is, however, !" confesses the Herald, ssoas
that Aceds to be carefully restricted.
Most Of our public schools already at

Small Grace for Hawkins.

WASHINGTON, y. C.-John Hawkins,
who cmbczzled $500 in money orders
from the postoilicc at Ncwbcrry, S. c.,
will have to serve all but one month of
his imprisonment The President, in
acting upon Hawkins appeal for par
don, made the following endorsement
upon the back of the application:
'1n consideration Of the fact that
Hawkins had served one month in Jail
after sentence, his term Of Imprisonment is
commuted to fourteen months"
The original sentence was fifteen
months and fine of one hundred dol
lars. Attorney General Miller declined
to recommend Executive clemcncy. An
appeal was made to show that Hawkins
was an illiterate man, not familiar with
the law and was led to do wrong to as
sist his large family.

I Wlththis company, some time during
the thirties, he travelled southwark in
wagons. At that time there was no rail
roads, and few towns in north Georgia.
Following the old Indian roads through,
Georgia, he entered Alabama, on his way
| 10 Montgomery. One man in the com
pany was very eager to get into a row
with the Indians, and his blood thirsty
talk made Barnum resolve to test his
courage. The Snowman took few mem
bcrs of the company into his confidence.
and at a given signal they dashed out
from the woods in all the glory of red
paint, feathers and blankets, brandishin~
their tomahawks and yelling. like mad
men.
Just rs Barnum expected, the man who
was hunting for u fight put spurs to the
horse and fled at lightning speed in the
direction of Montgomery. lie was final
ly ovcrtaken, but the adventure mortified
him so much that he embraced an early
opportunity of leaving the company.
AT one place on his southern trip, Bar
mum came near losing his life. He had
blacked his face, and was taking a negro
minstrel part in the performance, when
he heard quarrel at the door of the
tent. Forgetting his black face, he went
out and cndcavored to quiet drunken
white man who was trying to force his
way In. The stranger at once drew his
pistol, swearing that "no id nigger''
should talk to him in that style. Moth
ing but presence of mind and prompt
explanation of the situation saved the
manager, and after that when he blacked
his face, he was careful not to forget his
assumed character
He discovered Tom Thumb and start
ed him through Europe. meeting Queen

the democratic candidate was elected.
After the election, he was challenged TO
stand by his promise, but he backed out.
His books, "The Life of p. II. Bar

"The Humbugs of the World, have been
widely read
Mr.. Barnum frequently lectured on
temperance and other popular subjects.
He was always moral man, ind-hearted
and charitable, and many of the greatest
men Of the country were his intimate
friends. Several times during his career
he was forced to begin life anew without
dollar, but. people felt so much conf
dence in his integrity and ability, that
they were always glad to help him. Had
his energies been directed in other chan
nels he would have distinguished him
self in more useful and reputable walks
of life. As IL is, he made himself the
prince of showmen.
