Z, Cleveland to Return Harrison's Favors

The promotion of Judge j. n. Scott,
brother-ia-laN to President Harrison, to
the newly created Office of superintend-
emit of construction Of public buildings
on the Pacific coast has given rise to the
rumor that the president will request his
successor that Judge Scott be retained
in Office by tho incoming administration.
Mr.. Cleveland made a similar request
four wears ago of Mr.. Harrison. The
former had appointed Benjamin Folsom,
Mrs. Cleveland's brother, to the lucra-
tive Office of United States consul at
Sheffield, England. The salary Is $2,5OO
per annum and perquisites aggregat1ng
another 81 900.
When Cleveland retired from office he
requested of his successor to retain
Folsom in Office, and President Harrison
evidently considered this proposition III
g favorable manner, for the reason that
Folsom is about the only Democrat who
is holding a consular Office of any i'm
portance abroad. Another relation of
Mr.. Cleveland's, a nephew, has held the
Office of special deputy United States
marshal in one of the northwestern
states during the last four years.
The salary of the new Office held by
Judge Scott is nine dollars per day and
travelling expenses, all of which is about
equivalent to Folsom's remuneration.
The duties of the Office require constant
travelling between cities where public
buildings are being constructed. The
officer examines the progress Of theworb
and reports to the head Office in Wash
ington city.-Cor. Seattle Post-lntelE'

tically in line with the stern post and
thus kept from injury. If the wheel
should get injured, however, it can be
raised to the deck through a well IN the
stern and another lowered in its place.
Captain Henry Bartlett, who will COM
mand the vessel, has been conspicuously
successful IS a sealer and fisherman,
though he is not yet 30 years old. His
father and grandfather were famous
sealers before him, and he made his first
trip when he was but IA years old. When
he was II, he was second in command of
the steam sealer Panther. Since then he
has been in command of the steamers
Nimrod, Neptune. Hector and Algerine
and has not only made successful sealing
trips in each OF them, but has sailed them
across the Atlantic and up the Mediter-
ranean. Last year during a sealing
cruise he circumnavigated the island OF
Newfoundland, something unheard of in
recent years.
Soon afterward he was offered the
command of = new ship TO be built and
equipped under his sole direction. He
accepted and went to England to have
the vessel built There, however. he saw
the gunboat Algerine, which the navy de-
partment had for sale. He purchased her
and had her altered at Dundee, brought
her across to Newfoundland and made
a fairly good catch in a season of almost
| total failure.
Captain Bartlett is nearly 6 feet tall,
of muscular, well made figure, frank
countenance and cheerful disposition.
He knows every rock, shoal and current
to the northern end of Labrador and
has had sufficient experience with ice
navigation to make up for his lack of ac-
quaintance with the arctic region. Dun

THE FALCON AND HER CAPTAIN.

They Will Take Lieutenant Peary to the
Coast of Greenland.
The steam sealer Falcon of St. Johns,
Newfoundland, which is to convey the
Peary expedition to Greenland, is con-
siderably larger and faster than the
Kite, which performed a like service for
the previous expedition. The Falcon is
100 feet long, 264 feet beam and II feet
inches depth of hold. The Kite was
1T feet long, 90 feet beam and Is feet
deep in the hold. The Falcon is admit
tedly the strongest and fastest of the
scaling fleet Sit i bay ! r. ed anu can
sail almost as fast as she steams. Her
average speed is 0 knots, while that OF
the Kite was but CT or z.
The Falcon is fitted with regular
2-bladed whaling propeller. When un'

ILLITERACY AND CRIME.
(RepOrt for Glass F by c.. A. E.)

Adam with the best of influences about him,
had not strength enough to preserve his man
hood, and from Adam until to-day. man has
been an easy prey to vice and temptation. 1t
will always be so. This will never be an ideal
world and there will always be plenty of work
for the refOrmerS; human degradation will be
seen upon every hand, especially while the sa-
loon door is open on every corner and gambling
and other vices are practically authorized in our
cities and towns Does education prevent crime?
is a question that has frequently been discussed
1t is somewhat astonishing to hear persons reply
ing in the negative to this proposition, and hold
ing that our schools are having very little effect
in reducing the amount of vice in this country;
and they even point to the criminal records
in support of their view, and to the large num-
Der of crimes committed in our large cities where
the school systems are practically perfect and
where every one can get good education If
we examine the criminal and police statistics
however, we will find that they make no such
showing as is pretended, but quite the contrary
I'll admit there are. of course, some educated as
well as illiterate persons arrested. but the differ
ence in the number of arrests of these two clas-
seS show how great is the effect of the school in
the elimination of crime, The number Of prison
erS confined in seventeen states is something
about 10000, and among these the iterate in
proportion to numbers contribute six times
their quota. The records in the towns where
there is no perfect school system show an even
greater proportion of crime among the ignorant
and illiterate for the whole country furnishes to
each thousand of persons. eight times as many
illiterate prisoners as those who can read and
write. 1t is plain from these facts that educa-
ton greatly reduces the amount of crime and
that when the country shall have succeeded in
getting rid of illiteracy it will still further reduce
the number of criminals. 1 think the school
house a better preventive than the penitentiary

set type on English papers do not know the Ian
guage beyond few colloquial phrases, but they
are quick and their memories retentive of loca-
ton, so they soon learn the distribution of font
of type. Except on daily papers of very large
circulation all the work, even the press work, is
done by hand for labor is cheap and steam power
dear. The bulk of vernacular papers are litho-
graphed and have far superior appearance to
type set periodicals as any one will understand
But there are some vernacular papers printed
from type for which the demand is increasing
as they are of the progressive, enlightened order
Illustrated papers are rare, because the Asatic
though an inimitable imitatOr, is no originator
in the line of art. They can draw geometrc or
conventional designs with wonderful neatness,
but their original designs of form or figure are
wooden and crude.
The subscription list and day to day sales are
the mainstay of most Indian papers, because the
Asiatic lacks enterprise to be free advertiser.
The Parsees are exceptions to this rule and in
Bombay, where the Parsees abound, advertising
has as wide scope as in the best papers of our
land.

Education among Choctaws.

The subject of woman suffrage has turned my
thoughts home and to one who said:
when your mind from care is free
And OF others you are thinking
Sometimes think of me-"
Then suddenly was presented to my mind my
native home, its many advantages and the system
of education afforded both men aud women alike.
The system of education used in the ChOctaw ma
ton is such that all wisdom seekers of school age
can take advantage of it regardless of wealth or
poverty. In consequence the .neighbOrhood'
schools are we'll attended and the academies are
always full Under the tutelage of teachers
holding board of education certificates the chill
dren are taught the primary studies in the neigh
borhOod schools. Boys and girls have separate
academies to which they graduate from the pr-
mary schools. From the academies the bright
est and most studiOuS are selected to 90 to col
legeS in the different states of the Union at the
expense of the Nation. 1t will be seen that the
female sex are given the same educational ad-
vantages that the male is in our Choctaw country.
Many of our girls are very handsome; the train
ing given them at school and all through their
educational course gives them polished cultured
and winning manners, and it is hardly necessary
to say that no educated Choctaw maiden has in
scribed on her tombstone that sad inscription:
"In single besSedness she lived, and in the
same she died. AHC

The Lido gives one a pleasing impression
