The attempt Of Henry Labouchere 10 hold
Queen Victoria responsible for keeping him
out Of the cabinet is generally looked upon
as a smart advertising scheme. Labouchere
has by his more or less genuine attitude OF
disappointment, menace and defiance
managed to add immensely TO the circu-
lation of his weekly newspaper and TO
get himself talked about from one
end 10 the othsr of Great Britain.
While Mr.. Labouchere perssts
in spite of Gladstone'5 denial. in posing as
a victim Of monarchical animosity, the gen.
eral public accept Mr. GlsdstSne's stats
ment that he (Gladstone) was wholly re-
spOnsibe IL Is said that Gladstone did not
want Labouchere in the cabinet, AS the ad-
mission Of Lsbouchere would have involved
the resignation of Lord Houghton, Lord
Spencer and Lord Kimberly, who object to
the tactics which Labouchere has adopted
towards the Prince Of Wales and others
of the royal household and OF the nobility.
Mr. Gladstone. it is said. never did like
I.abouchere. aud has merely tolerated him
because he did not care TO offend man
with such large radical following. In the
present instance Mr.. Gladstone had 20
choose between Labouchere and those
friends whom he really wished TO have
around him, and he concluded 70 reject
Labouchere. The public generally indorse
Mr.. Gladstone's course.

STATE REFORM SCHOOL.

Success of the Cottage System.

Superintendent Howe Proud of the
Success of the Cottage System.
Superintendent Howe, of the state
reform school at Meriden, declares that
to the bright-minded boy whose
presence in the school is due to some
boyish freak, and to the boy without a
home, there ought to be no stigma at
tached. The school is in reality more
like a large boarding school than any
thing else. Its restraint is only natural,
its discipline easy and it has all the com
forts of home. The cottage system
was introduced into reformatory insti-
buttons by Superintendent Howe, and
he is proud to see its success, over thirty
institutions of the same nature having
adopted the system. The report of the
Superintendent dwells at length upon
the advantages to be derived by boy
learning trade which he might follow
throughout his life. Telegraphy and
printing have been introduced during
the past year. A great deal of attention
is paid to music. There are nine pianos
and nine organs in use in the school,
besides we'll equipped brass band.
