THE BATH TUB IN EDUCATION.

Great enthusiasm has been aroused In
Kansas City, Kan. by an innovation
which may be commended to the per-
sons who are intent upon introducing
physical culture in the already over
crowded curriculum of the public
schools This is no less important a.
matte rthan the fitting out of all the
school buildings with bath tubs. 1t is
related graphically Of the advocate OF
rhis measure, who is a pious man With
al, that "he puts his entire Sunday
school to soalx-the girls before Sunday
school and the boys after--in a large
natatorium filled with lukewarm water
in the winter and cool water in the
summer Now here is an example
worth emulating. The Importance of tho
oath may be rated as even superior to
chat of the gymnasium. Cleanliness be-
ing next to godliness, and being thus
supported from both the physical and
the moral side, and this requirement be-
ing at the same time shamefully neg
lected by many parents ana children.
is 1t not the plain duty Of the school
authorities to Introduce the natatorium
In the public school building, and to
put the different grades to soak during
the week under the supervision of an
inspector Of aquatics?
This is just as serious a matter, just as
logical, just as defenslble by the asser-
tio,, oP a r,,hlic naad no tho taa otfnu r,fs
gymnastics. Indeed, 1t Is much more
reasonable than that; for any child can
take bath, and there is little danger
Of injury; while physical culture, in tho
harum-scarum way that 1t must be-
taught without properly equipped
gymnasium in every building and al
scientifically trained instructor to loold
after the pupils, is pretty sure to dd
more harm than good. The really pros
gressve educator will place upon his
standard the bath tub as symbol Of
reform. It is stuff like this which casts
discredit upon the real advances and
discoveries in which the world Of edu-
cation is so rich. The average man and
woman mikes them up hopclessly, ana
is Just as likely to characterize the kim
dergarten fad" and to fall down In
worship Of the physical culture chimera
and the free bath tub as the ideals Of
education. We expect yet to see the
bath tub strlding over the land In trl-
umph, and marking boards Of education
for It's own.

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS,

Washington, Feb. Elm the house.
Ellis Of Oregon, asked unanimous con-
sent for consideration of the senate bill
to extend the time allowed the Umatilla
Irrigation Company for the completion
of its canal across the Umatilla reser-
walton, Oregon. The bill passed. After
the call of committees for reports the
Hawaiian debate was resumed, Outh-
waite, Democrat of Ohio. taking the
floor in support of the McCreary resolu-
tion.
Sickles, democrat, of New York, made
the first speech on the democratic side
against the McCreary resolution.
The Hawaiian debate was concluded
today, but the entire resolution was not
passed because of the failure of the
democrats to procure a quorum when a
vote was taken upon it. Much less OPP
position from the democratic size de-
veloped than was at one time antici-
pated. Only one speech, that of Gen.
sickles, was made in opposition to the
adoption of the resolution, although
there was some passive opposition on
The democratic side, indicated by the
refusal of several democrats to answer
b their names when the resolution was
placed upon its passage. The hitt sub
stitute, the Blair amendment, and the
motion of Reed to recommit were in
turn voted down, when upon adoption
of the entire resolution the republicans
refrained from voting and the demo-
Gratis lacked II of qorum. Cummings
voted for Reeds motion to recommit,
and Sickles against the McCreary reso-
luton, Cummings, Geary, Of California,
and Cockrell, Of Texas, refused to go
on record for or against the adoption Of
the resolution. The populists voted gem
orally with the republicans. Broderick.
Of Kansas, was the only republican who
declined to follow the lead Of his barty
and refrain from voting. He voted
against the resolution. When the demo-
crafts found themselves without q
quorum, they passed a resolution reyolk-
ing the leaves Of abssace. and then sd-
,ourned. they expect 10 have a quorum
present when the house meets tomor-
row.
Speaking on the resolution, Gen.
sieRIes, democrat, Of New York said;
The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1894-02-07

IT do not agree with the resolution and
l will not vote for it. AS long ago as
1850 1 heard Gov. Marcy say the. Sand
wich Islands should not belong to any
other power and would eventually be-
long TO the United States. l agreed
with him then, and agree with him
now"
The hour Of $3.50 having arrived, a
vote was taken on the first motion
pending, which was the majority reso-
lution, offered by McCreary, condemning
the action of Minister Stevens and
approving the presidents Hawaiian
policy The second is Hits minority
resolution offered as a substitute, CEN
ng the presidents attempt to over
throw the provisional government and
restore the monarchy; also, Blairs sub
stitute declaring for annexation. The
Blair substitute was lost-77 to los. The
Hit resolution was lost-1O2 to 1862
Upon the announcement of the vote
Reed moved to recommit the report of
the committee with the accompanying
resolutions, with instructions to investi-
gate all assertions of fact Lost-9S to
16O The question: was then upon the
adoption of the McCreary resolution.
The republicans, excepting Broderick,
Of Kansas, refused to answer to their
names and the populists also declined
to vote, The democrats lacked seven
teen of quorum. McCreary immedi-
ately moved call of the house. Reed
followed up his filibustering program
by forcing roll call upon this motion. A
call of the house was ordered. The call
developed the presence Of 245 members,
The democrats were chatting great
deal under the sarcastic remarks of
Reed. Mccrcary presented resolution
to revoke all leaves of absences except
those granted on account cf sickness,
ana instructing the sergeant-at-arms to
telegraph absent members and request
their attendance. The resolution was
adopted without division, and at 6:S5 the
house adjourned.

tions instead of formulating set OF

ton, who was before the Pacific rail-
roads committee Of the senate today,

Washington, Feb. Gin the senate the

voorhees, was authorized to prepare
statement of the reasons actuating the
committee. 1t is understood he will say
that in the present condition Of the
business Of the country, time is an es-
sential element in the settlement of the
tariff question, and the committee could
not allow the hearing to go on in
definitely, and could not cut them off
in the middle without doing injustice to
some interests The republicans will
probably make vigorous protest and
will likely ask to have the bill recon-
mitted.
Several senators VINO mad not hltbei to
spoken desired an opportunity to be
heard, and by unanimous consent the
time of the general debate was extend
ed until o'clock tomorrow. The chief
event of the day was a speech by Mr..
Frye, defending the official course and
character of Chief Supervisor Daven-
port, of New York city, and refuting
the alleged ISLANDERS and calumny which
he said had been heaped upon him by
the democratic party for twenty years,
Voorhees, statement as to the reasons
for refusing hearings on the Wilson
bill sets forth that prompt and speedy
action on the pending tariff legislation
issrequired at this time by every patri-
otic and business consideration. We are
determined that business men of the
country Of all classes shall at very
early day have full and clear insight
into the laws of tariff taxation which
shall hereafter prevail. The privilege Of
hearing would be unlimited as to time
and become an instrument of delay
more formidable than filibustering. AL
ready more than million circulars, en-
bracing interrogatories touching every
branch of business known in the census
of 1890, have been addressed from all
industries, and abundant streams of in
formation are pouring in for use in the
senate. The whole subject is very IA
miliar to the American mind, and needs
no further elucidation than will be in
cident to full and free debate. The coun>
