PUBLIC SCHOOL sUPERPLUITIEs,

The Chicago public schools are getting
an unpleasant advertisement that is
likely to prove especially EN- barrassing
to teachers during the worlds fair. DIR.
Rice, who recently spoke in such a COM
plimentary way of the Indianapolis
schools. says some of the teaching in
the Chicago schools is by far the most
alb ,rd of any Ee has ever seen. In one
building a specially is made of the
teaching of elocution by Delsarte meth
DDS. His description of these methods
is very amusing. but will excite pity for
the poor little wretches victimized
by such an artificial system. BY
way of i~nstructing them to read
with expression" they are made to
grin and grimace and pose and writhe
in a manner horrible to spectators who

even to Southern and Western Con-
gressmen. who call upon him OF bust
ness. Some of these Congressman
privately threaten to wait for an oppor-
tunity to handle Mr.. Oluey without
gloves in the House. When the fastid-

those untamed and unwashed Demo-
cratic brethren and thinks of being
handled by them without gloves he will
ut once see the advisability of coming
down from his pinnacle and treating
them with courtesy.

the administration is to do great things
in the way of regulating the tariff. the
currency and other matters affecting the
public interests, yet a month has gone
by and the administration has done
nothing but peddle ont spells to hungry
and thirsty hordes in waiting. AS a
matter of plain fact and truth, the
Cleveland administration, whatever it
might have thought it could do, cannot
keep the hungry hordes back from the
trough, and the muRwump organ which
believes only the promises and does not
look at the practice only makes itself
ridiculous.

WASHINGTON rumOr says that the two
leading members of Mr.. Cleveland's
Cabinet nave recently had a disaRreea-
BILE experience of his arbitrary and
meddlesOme methods. A few days ago
Secretary Carlisle sent a note over to
the White House informing the Presi-
dent that he had selected a certain per-
son for a minor place in his department.
Surprising that to be the end of the
matter, he was greatly surprised to have
his note returned Endorsed, II have Sc

This sort of thing WAS never done under
my previous administration. 1t savors
of autocracy, and is insulting to the
heads of departments.

AN election will occur in Rhode Island
to-day for State officers and two Con-
Rressmen. The congressional election
occurs at this time because in the regu-
lar election last November neither party
had a majority of the votes cast, thus
making it necessary to hold another
election. The State election promises
to be close, and may be thrown into the
Legislature, where the Republicans are
likely to AVE a majority.

THE appointment of James II. Eckels,
an obscure politician and second-rate
lawyer of Illinois, as Controller of the
Currency should make the deputies and
heads of division in that bureau feel
pretty secure in their places. A man
who knows absolutely nothing about
banks or banking will not be apt to want

inexperienced and incompetent persons.

The haphazard way in which i'm
portant appointments are made by this
administration is illustrated by the case
of Mr. James H. Eckels, of Ottawa.
Ill. Mr.. Eckels is a lawyer, and went to
Washington as an applicant for the
United States district attorneyship of
the Northern district in hat State.
Finding some obstacle in that case he
withdrew, and was Endorsed for Director
of the Mint, a position which ought to
be filled by an expert and not by a law
yer. AS he enjoyed the personal friend
ship of Mr.. Cleveland, he was hopeful
of getting this place. when. on Monday
last, he was %astonished beyond measure
by receiving the appointment of Com
troller of the Currency. This is the
most important bureau in the Treasury
Department. 1t has supervision of the
entire national banking system. and the
position has always heretofore been
filled by a trained banker-such men as
Hon. Hugh McCulloch, Hon. John Jay
Knox, and others Of that class. Mr..
Eckels makes no claim to a knowledge
of banking or nance. Secretary Car
Isle was not consulted in regard to the
appointment of Eckels, and when asked
for some information concerning the
new appointee he said: You will have
to go somewhere else for information.
1 know nothing about him. 1 never
heard of him before" Thus the great
banking interests of the country, and to
a certain extent its business interests,
are subjected to the control of q man
who, by his own confession, knows
nothing about banking. Yet we have
been assured with much emphasis that
this was to be a business administration.

READINGI

ing reading which are generally
discussed: Alphabetic, phonic, word
sentence and electic methods. They
are all good in their place, but the
thought method of teaching reading
Is OF more Importance than all the
o.hers' there is very little said
about. Now, thought, first, last
and all the time, Is the most impor-
tant part of reading. Thought is
the soul of any language, if you
please, whether it be French, Ger
man, scandinavian, Hebrew, Latin,
Greek or English, it is all the same.
\ on may know all the five methods
and If you do not CLEAN the thought
OF the sentence in the book or paper
you read, you cannot read it at all,
say nothing about reading it well.
Here is the chief bane of most all
faulty eading in our schools: the
pupils attempt to read books one or
two grades above their ability to
comprehend the thought. They
bIunder along in d parrot or mono
tonous way OF reading, with very
little thought of what the words or
sentences mean. They knock the
eyes out of all the language that
they read, and murder in cold blood
90 per cent. of all language they at
tempt to read.
In all reading, silent or oral, from
the cradle to the grave, thought
first, last, now and forever, must
be read and comprehended or the
reading is a logical impossibility.
We must teach the pupils in every
grade the meanings and application
Of words in every possible way.
Objects, good pictures, and plain
talks about words are great aids in
teaching primary pupils the mean
Of words and sentences. Good
practical synonyms are useful in
all the grades. Teach the pupils
to say the same thought in five or
SIX different ways by using synon-
yms and different words. Be sure
that every thought is expressed in
good standard language.
Thought, sensible thought, truth
full thought, intelligent thought,
.eleyating thought and original
thought are the most precious jew
els that has been recorded IN the
literature of sixty centuries.
The golden threads of thought
that have been woven IN the best
literature of all nations and ages is
the basis for all our reading selec-
lions. Words, sentences, paragra-
phs, selections or volumes are moth
ing to the reader unless he can
glenn the thought they contain. OF
all the things that men can do here
the n ost m~omentous, Won
derful and worthy are the choice
thought that he expresses in his
life or his writings, also the choice
thoughts that he gains from ~litera-
ture and teachers to others. Thought
is the goal of our ambition in read
ing. Thought, the swiftest and
strongest messenger that has winged
It's way above all the heights, and
is still successful as the swiftest
heralder of the nineteenth century.
The swiftest kind OF lightning or
electricity cannot travel from planet
10 planet or star to star so swift as
thought.
