THE ground which Secretary Noble
takes in regard to the request of the
House investigating committee for pa
pers on file in his Office, namely. that he
will furnish them even if it compels the
neglect of current business, is in con
trast with that of President Jackson
when the Wings undertook to investi-
gate some features of his ~administra-
ton, as he issued an order forbidding
subordiDateS to furnish the investigat-
ing committees with my kind of infOr-
nation or records of the departments.

ST. LOUIS, May s.-After meditating over
the legal novelty known IN judicial circles
as the Hemenbaum VS.. Goldenwasser case
Justice James Byron rendered a decision
yesterday afternoon. judgment being en-
tered in FAVOR OF the plaintiff in the sum OF
SIS and costs. This is one of the cases in
which H~emenbaum sued the parents of a
young couple for 500 for having brought
about the marriage. At the same time the
case OF Hemenbaum We. Sotiier was called
and tried. This case was taken under adj
visement, although the same line Of testi-
mony was introduced. These peculiar
cases have probably caused more comment
than any case that has come IN before a
justice in manv years. and 10 the first IN
stance on record where a man sued for and
obtained judgment for succeeding in bring
ing about a matrimonial combination.

Men and Women in Chicago Schools.
A Chicago school teacher wrote to
the Nation, complaining that 30 many
of the teachers and principals of the
Chicago public schools are women.
He conceded the fitness of women to
teach "6-yesr-olds how to spell cat"
hut that large schools of 900 or more
pupils should not be managed by
women entirely, many of whom he
pronounced "elderly, nervous, and
destitute of broad ideas" and he
thought this accounted for the small
schools until completing the course.
A reply to this letter brings out the
following facts:
Chicago has LOG grammar school
principals; forty-one are women,
sixty-ive are men. From those
schools in charge of what broad
ideas, working for small pay and
small appreciation (save In their own
conscience), 50 per cent of the gradu-
ates of last year were boys, while
those in charge of fussy, figdety
elderly, nervous, unliterary, un-
scientific old women, destitate of cul-
ture or broad ideas, but with good
political pull, IS per cent of the grad
yates were boys. The twelve largest
schools of Chicago have an attend
ance of 1890 pupils and upward; six of
these have man at helm, 3S - per
cent of these graduates were boys,
while the other six, lowed along by
these same old women, with en-.
feebled bodies and uncultured minds,
graduated classes of WEIGH 45 per cent
were boys. In ten grammar schools
more boys than girls completed the
course; six of these were in charge of
women, four of men. The school
which graduated the largest percent
age of boys, go per cent, was in charge
of woman.
