TEMPERANCE IN THE SCHOOLS.
An Appeal TO tho Legislature on the
subject. ii

Mrs. Mary Hunt, who is at the head of the
educational department of the international
and National Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union lectured at the Tabernacle last
evening under the auspices of the Reform
League. Her subject wa Compulsory
temperance Education i'll the fuolc
Schools The Synod of the Presbyterian
Churches of New Jersey recently instructed
its Temperance Committee to petition the
Legislature of 1894 to enact a temperance
educational law. This COMMITTEES called To-
gether the representatives of other churehes
throughout the State and representatives OF
various temperance organizations who united
with the Presbyterians in their efforts to Sc
cure the enactment OF such a law,
Last night the audience was not very
large. but it was full of enthusiasm. On the
platform were seated Rev. Edwin McMlnn,
President of the Reform League; School
Director William H. Beach and Mrs. Han
nah Carnes. Spread across the front OF the
big organ was a white map or the Onlteo
States with these States painted in black on
it: New Jersey, Indiana, South Carolina,
Georgia, Tennessee and Arkansas, the only
States, so the lecturer explained, where legls-
latures had not enacted laws enforcing the
teaching of the injurious effects of alcohol
and tobacco on the human system. Even
the Young in the territories were thus pro-

braced the District of Columbia, the Military
Academy at West Point and the Naval
Academy at Annapolis.
Mrs. Hunt spent most OF yesterday at
Trenton, assisting in the preparation OF q
bill which will early be introduced in the
Legislature. During her lecture Mrs: Hunt
alluded particularly to the fact that Indiana
and New Jersey were the only two states
north of the Potomac which had not enacted
such law as she had spoken of. A petition
was, during the evening, circulated among
the audience and was numerously signed. 1t
was as follows:-
Believing that prevention through the educa-
ton OF the people. it is the antidote for the vice
or intemrerance, we, the undersigned citizens
of - City. - County, respectfully petit
ton out Legislature now in session. to enact .
law requiring that the study of tue nature or
alcoholic drinks. and other narcotics. ana special
instruction MS to their effects upon the human
system, in connection with relative physiology,
shall be made a regular branch of Instruction.
for all pupils in all schools supported by pnbiic
money. or under state control.
Duplicate petitions will be sent TO the
Senate. Mrs. Hunt, in her lecture, argued
forcibly in favor of the passage of such a
law. While declaring for prohibition she
said that in her opinion, the only way to
secure it was through the education Of the
youth in the schools.

SUPERIORITY OF WOMEN
Mrs. Palmer's Effort to Dethrone
King Man.

How long can it reasonably be expected
that the old custom will last in Difference to
which wives are content to be known by the
surnames of tqeir husbands? All the recent
tests tend to show the superiority of the
female mind to that of the male. Mrs. Alice
Freeman Palmer in a recene address sup
ported the cause of coeducation with the ar
gument that nothing in the world will take
the foolishness and romantic notions out of a
girl SO quick as to work with young men and
find out how little they know" OF course
marriage has the same effect; but after a girl
is married it is too late for her to to save her
maiden name. If she arrives before mar
riage at the sophisticated stage that Mrs.
Palmer describes, she may very reasonably
demur to giving up a name which she feels
competent to distinguish for one which will
be handicapped by her husbands relative in
feriority. All along the line this summer
women have triumphed. In the recent as
signment of general fellowships by the Chi
cago University young women got so dis
proportionate a share of the spoils as to
s~candaliZe the authorities. When the Lon
don Geographical Society declined in the
spring to admit women. to its membership,
the society's action was received not at all
as evidence of the inferiority of women, but
purely as a new proof of the limitations of
men. Ten women passed the Cambridge
Mathematical Trlpos this year, and two or
them came out ~wranglers. Three women
took honors at Oxford, at which University
also honor examinations were this year
opened to women in three new cources. At
London University, Miss Ogilvie, a prodigy
of erudition from Aberdeen, passed with the
highest credit the examination for the degree
of Doctor of Science. At this rate, how
long will women be content with the sub
stance, and abstain from grasping the shadow
also? How long will Miss Jones consent to
become Mrs. Smith? How soon will she de-
mand a competitive examination between
Smith and herself to determine before mar
rage which is the compelling entity, and
whether it is more meet That she shall be-
come a Smith, OF that Smith and the chill
dren shall become Joneses!-Harper's
Weekfu.

THE DANCER AND THE CHALK.
How Fanny ElssIer Escaped a Plot
of Her Partisan Rivals.


of Her Partisan Rivals.
When I first knew Paris, Taglioni had left
the opera, and Fanny Elssler reigned SUI
preme; the triumphant success, however, OBJ
tanned by her in the 'sDiable Boiteux,' finan-
cially advantageous as it proved to the
management, was by no means SO relished
by her lady colleagues, who, finding them
selves during the long run OF the ballet COM

any mode of annoying and embarrassing

"Your chalk" began Burat.
NO a doubt of it. l have asked every

me from dancing. So now, M. Burat, you

to go for it,"
stMake haste,'' insisted Fanny. II will

1t was then eleven o'clock, and all the

AN EMBEzZLER CAUGHT.

Henry Reynolds of Bay Ridge, Long
Island, was ~arraigned in Justice O'Donnelrs
court this morning charged with grand
larceny. Reynolds is a fugitive from JUS
tice. He has embezzled, it is alleged, $500 or
more from the New York Life Insurance
Company. His arrest was a clever piece of
detective work On the part of Detective Dali
ton. Reynolds, in company with his wife,
was arrested at 1885 O'Clock this morning as
he was preparing to board the Red Star
steamer Westernland. which sailed this
morning. Two weeks ago a warrant was
issued for Reynolds arrest by Police Justice
Ryan of New York. Reynolds went in
hiding and managed to evade arrest. His
wife procured the tickets for Europe and
aided him in escaping from New York with
out being recognized. Detective McCloskey
Of New York, who has been looking for
Reynolds, gave Dalton a description of him
and in this manner his capture was attained.
Reynolds was held by Justice ODonnel to
await e~xtradition papers.

A MAUPAssANT Renaissance

An amusing coincidence is worth record
ing here, though Maupassant has told the
story in his preface to a French translation
of Mr.. Swinburne's poems. More than
twenty years ago, when the future novelist
was a mere lad, he was sailing his yacht out
side the white cliffs of Normandy, when he
saw approaching an object of unusual form
and color. 1t was the figure OF Mr.. SWIM
burne, who had been carried out by the tide
while swimming, and was now in a very
~perilous condition indeed. The poet was
saved and during his return voyage to Dieppe
this l think is an unpublished particularly sat
in the stern sheets wrapped in a sail, and re-
cited the poems of Victor Hugo. In return
for his succof, the square-built and rudy
young Norman lwho looked as little as posi-
BILE like a future man of ~lettels) was invited
to dinner with Mr.. S~winburne, who was then
living near Dieppe. Legend reports, and |
think l recollect that poor Maupassant con-
firms. that roasted monkey formed the piece
de resistance ON this classic occasion.-Ciitic.

BOARD OF ALDERMEN.
Resolution TO Regulate speed of
Trolley Cars.

EfOtiey Cafss
The Aldermen last night took steps to have
the Consolidated Traction Company COM
PEELED to run its cars at a speed which Will
not be so dangerous to life and limb, and
also to have the company place on its cars
iron wire protectors similar to those in use
on the Broadway cable cars.
This is the resolution which was presented
by Alderman Farley and adopted
Whereas, The present system of running aud

dent.
The Street and Water Commissioners will
be urged to carry out the provisions of the
resolution. In offering the resolution Alder
man Farley said that the motormen were
compelled to run the cars SO fast in order to
make the scheduled time that they were I'M
able to stop quickly enough to avert col
lisions and running over people.
Captain Jack" Graham's report of work
lone by him since his appointment as In
spector of Scales, Weights and Measures,
was not presented.
Graham will be hauled over the Goals at the
next meeting of the board.
Building Inspector Macarthur, in connec-
ton with his monthly report of the business
of his office, informed the board that there
has been a noticeable falling off in building
this year. During the year, S1,958,23S was
spent in buildings and improvements. 1t is
S155,7 TAI less than the preceding year.

Third, four permits, $500; Fourth, fifteen
permits, $50, 300; Fifth. one permit, $500;
Sixth, seven permits, $3.50; in all, $49,063.

Jacob Nelson, the pawnbroker, has been
getting into so much trouble of late that he
asked to nave his license transferred to
Mayer & Co. The petition was grant
ed. John Seton asked to have his
license for a saloon transferred from
Greenville to No. 204 Van Horn street. Some
objection was made to it and the matter was
laid over. Major Bundy complained of an
unsafe chimney adjoining his home. He
warns the Aldermen that if he sustains any
injury or harm from its falling be will hold
the city responsible. The complaint was re-
ferred to the Building Inspector. A half
dozen licenses were granted and the board
then adjourned.

PSYCHOLOGY AND HAPPINESS.

The new science of psychology will de
termine the mental laws exactly the laws OF
the individual and of society; the laws of
aesthetics, of education. of ethics, and of
every human faculty.
1t will compel men to live by these laws,
because it will make them plain to all men
as plain as the law of gravity. II world
will then go forward, because it viii see how.
We shall then have a higher manhood, be
cause its type will be clear to us. We shall
nave a new art and a new literature, because
we shall know the secrets of beauty. Its
standards shall be broader in proportion as
love our unfortunate brother by knowing
how to make him lovable, and how to make
life lovable to him. Psychology will secure
to man wealth and art, wisdom and happi-
ness, by making man capable of them. Psy-
chology will make education the chief func-
ton of government, by giving education a
scope heretofore unconceived of.-Prot. Her
bert Nichols in McClase's for January.

AN ENGINEER IN DANGER.

We are making a mile a minute. What
would the driver do if he saw before him a
burning bridge, or the red lights Of a stand
ing train? His left hand is ON the throttle;
he would close it. Almost in the same Sec
ond his right hand would grasp the sand
lever, and with his left he would apply the
brakes. With both hands, in about the
third second, he would reverse the engine.
Perhaps he has heard that old story that to
reverse a locomotive is to increase her
~speed-that a bird will fly faster with folded
wings: he may pretend to believe it, but he
will reverse her just the same. If she has
room she will stop. Even without the aid of
the air brake she will stop the train if the
rail holds out. I ought to say that the in
slant he reverses the engine he viii kick the
cylinder cocks open-otherwise he may blow
off a steam chest or a cylinder head.-Mc-
Gpre's for January.
