There is now lying on Ills death bed,

eighty-iour years Of ago, who has had
mn influence in tho song world that will

has been phenomenal 1t has been Is.

And yet tho composer has never gained

reaped fortunesiro the SUCCESS OF this
beautiful production.
Curyalho. director Of tho Paris On

After the 1st OF July, 1892, all pianos
will be sent from the mandatory tuned
to the international pitch. This will be
an important change, as the vibrations
OF the international system are slower
and therefore not SO high by shade as
is the old, system. So OF course tuners
will be, compelled to change their tun-

Compulsory Education in Ohio.

The supreme court Of Ohio affirms the
constitutionality Of the compulsory edu.
cation act, which requires children be-
tween the ages of eight and fourteen
years to be instructed in the primary
branches in public or private school
for not less than twenty weeks in each
year in a.city district and not less than
sixteen weeks in country district.
Truant officers are appointed to soc
that the law is obeyed. They inspect
the schools and factories where children
are employed. They collect from pr.
vate schools certain data which include
tho names, ages and places Of residence
ofpupils, so that the school location OF
every child Of school age may BIO known
and the truants looked up.
Father Quigley, in charge Of par.
ochial schoolin Toledo, refused to give
the information required by law, taking
the ground that the law was not con.
stitutional, since'it interferred with the
rights Of parents to educate their
children as they please. The circuit
court OF Lucas county held the law. tc
be constitutional, and this view is
affirmed by the highest court in the
state.
The act does not seem to be unreason-
able, and the decision is in line with
public sentiment in Ohio as far as it has
been expressed.

The Anti.Harrison Movement


Messrs. Platt, Quay and Clarkson are
all good men and true, no doubt. They
have dono what they could for Repub-
lican success, We are to suppose. Their
opportunities have been great and We
must do them the credit to. believe
that they have availed themselves
greatly of the chances that como along.
To Mr.. Quay as commander OF the
national forces in 1855 the Republican
party must feel grateful or be guilty of
the objectionable sin Of ingratitude.
The party will be fortunate in the high
est degree if it have this year leader
of equal skill and zeal. .<tj
Messrs. Quay, Clarkson and Plat have
some reason OF their own for prcferring
anybody else to Harrison. They are not
engaging in the favorite son business.
Their aim is only to down Harrison.
Thus lar they are not taking other
Republicans into their confidence. They
arc going it alone.
When they get ready with their can
didato they will announce him, and if
the Republican party prefers him to
Harrison, or is willing to waive its own
preference to oblige Messrs. Platt, Quay
and Clarkson, Harrison will not be
nominated. Otherwise ho will be.
Appearances indicate that it will be
otherwise. :.
