AOUEER EXCEPTION.


John q. Stevenson, lawyer of Pitts
burg, Pennsylvania, has presented to the
legislature bill which provides "that no
man addicted to the habit Of drinking in
toxicating liquors shall be appointed to
any statutory Office" in that State. Being
addicted to the habit" is defined as ap-
plicsble to a man who within one year
previous to his appointment to Office has
been publicly intoxicated. This law is in
tended to affect administrators, guardians,
commissioned officers of the state militia,
policemen, firemen and all officers created
by special law or statute, excep ting "mem-
bers of the legislature"
Do those who favor this bill think it Is
not as necessary for members of the leais-
lature to be sober as for other public
officers. or is 1t SO in PennyRlyanis that no
man addicted" ever asplres to bs mem
ber of the legislsturel Or is 1t useless to
expect that legislature can be elected
without containing some who are addicted
Whatever the idea this bill Is founded on,
1t looks queer in these parts, where no
addicted" men are elected to the legisla
ture or any other public Office.

ALLIE SANIEE.

The Chinese in this country, like come
of the Roman Catholics, don't like to have
their children "injured" by the public
schools. In San Francisco the Six Com
panies have established parochial schools
to counteract the evil influence of the
public schools. The little yellow folks go
to the public schools In the daytime to
learn English and the ordinary branches
taught there, and in the evening go to
schools established by the Six Companies,
where they are grounded in Chinese phil
osophy. At this side of each teacher desk
and affixed to the wall is tablet of
Confucius, and before this the pupils as
they file past to their seats make an
obeisance. Each child is provided with q
San tsz' King or trimetrical classic, and
follows the printed characters as the in
structor reads from 1t, the method being to
commit to memory the fundamental princi-
ples of philosophy which the book con-
tains. The teacher reads line and the
scholars say it after him, aud he repeats
and they repeat it, until they are supposed
to know 1t by heart. The following are
translations of come of the sentences in
the Chinese primer: MEN at their birth
are radically good. To bring up and not
educate ia a fathers error. To educate
without vigor shows teachers Incidence.
Gems unwrought can form nothing useful.
Having learned these solemn truths, which
the children say over with an attention
that has no expression, often failing tc
comprehend their meaning, they repeat 6
series of verses, of which the following ID
one: "There are three powers-heaven.
earth and man. There are three lights
the sun, moon and stars. There are three
bords-between prince and minister, jus
tice; between father and son, affection
between man and wife, concord" The
recitations are varied by writing exercises
the pupils tracing the Chinese characters
over printed copy clips with inkstones.
The Chinese think it may be well enough
for their children to learn enough to dc
business in this country, but they dom
want them to lack the philosophy, educa
tion and religious training which maxi
