The Relation of Musical Instruction
IN 0ur Eaurarional System

The Relation of Musical Instruction
to Our Educational System.
by A. F. Mtushtp, Editor OF Journal Of Ed
ucatton, Boston, Mass,
We teach arithmetic for business,
geography for commerce, reading for
information, singing for character and
enjoyment. We teach arithmetic and
geography for the counting room,
reading and language for society,
drawing for the shop, physiology and
singing for the home. That which
singing may accomplish for man is in
every way as important to the man
and TO the world rs that which is to be
accomplished by arithmetic, geogra-
ply, language or drawing. 1t is not
as important as reading which really
counts for as much rs all the other
branches.
Singing is closely related to health,
to choices, to intellectual activity; con-
sequently it is vital to the character.
A mans success in industrial, COM
mercial or professional life depends
largely on his courage, peace of mind,
freshness, hopefulness, and elasticity.
Singing is helpful in all these direct
ions. TO make man is more impor
tant than to make mechanic; to
make good man is more important
than to make a great man; to make a
joyful man is more important than to
make a brilliant man. Singing should
be so taught in the public schools as
to accomplish something beyond the
singing. a child gets good deal out
of arithmetic aside from the ability to
extract cube root; he gets more out of
geography than the location of CULTS
bays and capes: more out of history
than a string of dates; more out of
language than acquaintance with the
sublunctive mood. We must get
more out of singing than knowledge
of the scales, or ability to sing song.
Rightly used there is more discipline
for mind and heart, more discipline for
success and enjoyment, more discip-
line for character in learning to sing
than in learning almost auy other
branch. Thinking and singing ought
to be companions
What the public school wants of
singing as a branch of instruction, is
the grandest possible teaching of the
art intellectually and fervently as a
means of providing the most man,
hood and womanhood. Singing is 70
be taught the whole child. His entire
being, mentally, physically, industrial
ly, morally, is to be vibrant with
health, elasticity. energy and cheerful
ness. These things being so, singing,
when well taught, is as important a
subject for the schoolroom as any
other branch; and unlike most other
branches it needs to be taught from
the lowest primary grade to the high
est, in the ungraded as in the graded
school. IT Is NEEDED FOR PATRIOT.
ISM, FOR MORALITY, FOR HEALTH. In

ASA ULTED HIS COND UCTOR.
brakeman DooIev Tried TO Knock Troy OF
the Top Of u Car.

While the local freight train between Port
Jervis and Jersey City on the Erie railroad was
moving toward Jersey City, and soon after it
passed Middletown, sixty-seyen miles from Jer-
sey City, at 2 O'Clock yesterday morning, Brake
man James Dooley attacked Conductor Trlpley
Troy with n club and broke his nose. The en-
counter took place on the top OF one OF tho
freight cars. Conductor Troy Is now ut his
home in Port Jervis. but will DO able TO resume
work in a day or two.
The fight grew out OF the b~rakeman's DISC
bedience of orders. Dooley is described as a
surly fellow. impatient of restraints; and though
he had never previously had any words with
Troy. who, the Erie men say, is ono OF the best
and most popular of the roads employees, he
was angercd when the train, having stopped at
asleep in one of the rear cars and ordered him
TO GO to his post. He fatty refused to obey; -
when the train stopped at Middletown Troy went
forward and told the engineer he was a brake
and the train must be run slowly down hills,
She train consisted OF forty cars, and there was
only one brakeman besides DOOley.
Troy then mounted the first car. and a. the
train pulled out. started back over tho roofs of
the cars to take Doolcy's place. lie met tho
brakeman. and without warning Dooley struck
linn in the face with the stick hIakemen carry
for adjusting the couplingsof cars. lie failed to
knock the conductor down. however, and after
the blow turned and ran. He left the train and
escaped.
Troy ran his train on TO Chester. twelve miles.
When he arrived there he was relieved by
Christopher Mcmahon, an emergency man.
Troy wrote out his. report Of the occurrence,
which was telegraphed TO the Erie offices, and
after Dr. Smith OF Chester had dressed his
wounds. he took the first train for home.
