Prof. JEBB Of England. a famous Greek
scholar. holds that the working people should
be taught Greek. as a means Of moral eleva-
ton and intellectual culture. The first work
tngman's Greek class OF o dozen members was
formed In London last year. under the tutelaGe
OF an enthusiastic O1onian. who has recently
made o report OF progress. from which 1t APP
pears that the members arc already qualified
up to the standard d OF "Rssponsions." and that
they are dillgent In study. quick to learn. and
happy In their scholarship. Meanwhile. the
popular desire for a knowledge OF Greek has
increased. and other classes Of workinRmen
Will be formed as soon as the arrangements
can DO made. We guess the idea must To a
good one. Whom all the horny-hnnded sons Of
toll In London and Liverpool know Greek.
and can read Plato and ARIsToPHASEs. the
oppressive shenannigan OF the nrisrocracy will
have to BIO put n stop to. That knowledge Is
power" was not an original thought OF Lord
BACON: he got 1t from the Greeks.
In this country thousands OF workaday peo-
pie can read Greek. Poor youths have far bet
ter opportunities OF entering college here and
learning Greek than they have in England.
Lots OF them earn the money through which
they win an Introduction to the old Greeks.
We have known lots OF men who worked their
way through college. and paid their way. too.
who were as poor when they tackled alpha as
when they got to omega. 1t is good discipline

Thefts OF Public Flower.

The Superintendent OF our Parks has
called special attention to the injury done
to the plants In them by people who in
many cases know better. He says In a let
ter lately addressed to the Park Board:
~ desire to call attention to the wanton destruction
Of shrubs by visitors in the parks. who. in their greed
for gathering flowers. do not hesitate to seriously mu.
tilate the plsnsa They doubtless know. or should
know. that It 10 strictly assins, the rules Of the
parks TO pluck flowers Of any kind Tho police en-.
deavor TO enforce these rules, but. unfortunate.
ly. many people OF intelligence and respectability
do not hesitate to transgrsss the ordinances In the
most deceitful and underhand way. 30 great has been
the mutilation OF the shrubs that hardly q lilac Is left
to bloom below tho reach Of the arm. Allow me to
suggest that an earnest appeal be made TO the public
by your Board. asking for the support OF Ali good citt
hsns for the protection OF the flowers OF the parka"
In the general public interest we repeat
this appeal. 1t is addressed particularly to
the better sides Of some bad people. Tho
city OF New York pays for tho beauti-
fcation OF Its parks by means OF shrub
berry and flowers. For the enlightenment
OF those whose natural courtesy does not
lead them to consider other peoples rights
and enjoyments. we will say that every
blossom represents public money spent. and
the plucking OF o is no better than the act
OF O public officer who lays q similar grip
on q dollar that belongs to the city treas
ury. II any one wishes to take a flower
from the Central Park he should first buy
the Park.

About one month ago tho authorities OF
Hamburg decided to put a stop to the passage
OF Russians through the city on their way 10
foreign countries: and yet, up to this time.
Russian steerage passengers como here In
ships from the port Of Hamburg. The DANA,
for example, brought 327 Of them the other
day. Considerable numbers Of Russians have
also como hero during the past fortnight, In
ships from Bremen. from Rotterdam. and
from other ports: It was from Bremen that
tho Lain brought the immigrants who had
to be isolated last week on account Of the
existence OF smallpox among them. In view
Of the experiences we had here last autumn
with steerage passengers from those parts Of
Russia In which cholera and typhus fever pre-
vailed. and in view Of the fact that both Of
these CONTAGIOUS diseases are still prevalent
In western Russia. q special and very serious
duty Is imposed upon Health Officer JENKINS.
1t is desirable that all shipping companies
should be careful about takin aboard Russian
or Polish steerage passengers bound for any
American port There must be danger to US
as long as We receive immigrants from the
plague-stricken regions Of Europe.
