conferred with Signors Crispi and Re.

Bisncheri, president of the chamber, in
regard to Signos Crispi's bond for 244. .0OC
lire to the Banca Rationale, dated 1889
Replying to the committees demand fol-
an explanation, Signor Crispi, while
not positively refusing to answer, de-
clared that he was justified in not re-
plying. on the ground that it was O
private transaction and did not concern
the chamber or committee in any way.
The debt was contracted without the
exercise of any political influence
upon his part, and, in fact, before he
joined Depreti's ministry in 1887. He
borrowed money in order to CONSOLE
date various debts incurred in behalf OF
the newspaper Reforma. 1t was also
subject to the condition that he should
not be called upon to repay it until he
returned to private life.
"When that time arrives" he said,

added with much feeling, ''per-
mits me to indulge in the only joy that

and other bank officials, that Signor

music in the schools.

EDIToRs HERALD I'll see by your paper
of Sunday last that one Taxpayer"
undertakes to prove that the pupils in
the public schools of Los Angeles are
required to study the long list of studies
formerly enumerated by one Music
ian," evidently brother OF Taxpayer.
1t is clear that the writers before
mentioned had access to the same manual
which neither understands.
The manuul states that pupils in the
third year shall 'study" reading,
writing, spelling. arithmstic, drawing
and language, and no moro.
The same manual states that "oral
and observation lessons" shall be given
in zoology, botany, physiology.
geography, morals and manners, physl-
cal exercises and music. Music requires
15 minutes daily. Physical or "breath-
ing' exercises are given as occasion
seems to demand. Occasional
talks are given on physiology,
or simple sules OF health
zoology, or common animals; botany, or
common plants; geography, or earth
forms; and morals and manners. or
how to be decent and sensible though
human. The latter talks or object les
sons average about 10 minutes day
or about the same length Of time as was
always devoted to the same general
exercises" by the sensible teachers
everywhere.
Pupils are required to study only
reasonable number Of branches, and not
13 difficult or obstruse branches, as was
stated by Musician and Taxpayer.
Thomas Carlyle cursed his teachers be-
cause be had never been taught even
the names of the common flowers, and
many thousands of people have good
cause for the same bitterness for the
same neglect Of q simple duty.
II the above statements are not true
the first discoverer OF such state OF
affsirs can secure q reward OF $40 by
calling upon the principal at the Uni.
versity public school at any time during
the year.
Taxpayer keeps up the howl about
bread and butter studies. not knowing
that those branches are taught behind
counters and work benches, on street
cars during training season, in the fields,
shops, factories, foundries, bitches, law
offices. bar rooms, gambling dens, news
paper Omces, army, navy, etc. ANU cau
be taught to no class OF infants collected
together in school room by any one
but universal genius; nor should De
taught to infants by any body.
All the roads to usefulness and happi-
ness run pretty well together during in
fancy, and it is time enough to separate
the children into castes when they are
older If it must be done at all.
A boy who is not absolutely idiotic
can learn how to speak 80 as to be COM
pretended and can master the profound
art Of counting and exchanging money
without attending school OF any kind.
Free born Americans are not satisfied
with those things and have queer no.
tion that this wonderful universe was
meant for something better than tread
mill, or animal show, or goose pond.
