The Century Magazine gravely announces
that it has secured the services of a COM
petent person to look into the question of
the marriages of college-bred girls, and
tina the results of the investigation will
I'm due time be set forth I'm it's pages. The
Century is apparently modelling itself on
the New York World, which is much given
to discussing, with sensational ado, ques-
ions of nc importance whatever. and in
which the public takes no interest. A few
persons with little TO think of and with a
disposition to view with alarm any de-
parture by women from the narrow paths
trod by their grandmothers. affect TO fear
that girls who are given the opportunities
for education enjoyed by their brothers
will be less inclined to marry-or. at any
rate, that men will be less inclined to marry
them than their less accomplished sisters.
The subject is one not worth serious dis
cussion. Education never yet overcame
natural human Instincts. 1t has never been
observed of college men that they showed
any greater. Indifference to marriage than
their uncultured brethren, and if they are
not turned against matrimony by some
supposed mysterious influence OF intellect
ual growth, why should their sisters be?
Whatever statistics may show, and Stats
tics. especially when compiled as these
must be, from insufficient data, are apt to
be untrustworthy. Everybody knows, as a
matter of fact. that college girls of their
immediate acquaintance are as likely to
marry as those who have had no such edu-
cational advantages. Even If 1t were true
that such young women are led by their
superior mental requirement to use greater
discrimination In the selection OF husbands
and to show no undue haste TO assume the
matrimonial bonds. what can be done about
the matter? The Century ought to under
stand that the education of women is one
OF the developments of the age. 1t is a
mark of progress which is not to be stayed
by the discovery of incidental and perhaps
unfavorable phenomena. Women must
have education in order TO take their place
in the world as the world now is. 1t has
become a matter. not Of convenience or
personal taste. but of seif-preservation.
The drift in that direction cannot be
checked even by the discovery that 1t hin

A lively discussion occurred in the
South Carolina constitutional convention,
a few days g on a provision declaring
the marriage of a white person with a
negro or mulatto void. Ex-Congressman
Smalls. colored. proposed to amend by
adding:
And any white person who lives and CO.

who shall have one-eighth or more negro
blood, sha be disqualified from holding
any Office of emo-ument or trust in this
State, and the offspring of any such living

herit and acquire property the same as il
they were legitimate.
This met with so much opposition from
the white members that n of the col
ored members declared that for once
"the coons had the dogs up the tree" A
long and at times angry debate followed.
in hi course of which Senator Tillman
declared that in certain parts of the State
there were families of people known to
have negro blood in their veins who are
received and treated as white people,
and thoroughly identified with the white
race, having accumulated property, and
the men having been soldiers of the Con-
federate army. Ex-Congressman Smalls
said if a negro insulted a white woman

by the white members, ard there was a
shout of laughter when he added: If

side, and white men who insulted or de-
bauched negro women were treated like

The sentiment against prize-fighting
has been rapidly growing in late years.
despite the fact that a class of. curious
persons will stand In front of a hotel to
catch a sight of a ~well-known pugilist.
AS much as the brutality of the fighting,
the notorious character of the profess
sional pugilist has turned the decent
sentiment Of the country against the
prize fight. These men, particularly Cor
bett n his oppepentss have made such
a vulgar exhibition of themselves
through the papers that the better part
of the American people who really create
public SENTIMENT has, become disguised
with them. IT Esaise Understood that
cities like New Orleans, which have shell
tered the prize fight, have been Stunned
by those who travel for pleasure or for
health. This is because these contests
make h cities where they take place
the resorts of the professionals and the
fraternity which. attend the prize fight.
New Orleans learned the fact a few years
ago. and consequently there will be no
more prize fights in that city Of sufficient
Importance to attract the n of
the country. Another thing which is ST.
lently telling against such brutal exhibit
tons is the better education and the
higher refinement of the element which
makes public obinion,s That is shown in
the action of the Texas Legislature. Ten
years ago there wouldbave been no pro-
test against a prize fight to be held in
Texas.

to time they will help to measure progress.

THE TEACHING OF JOURNALISM.

The Indiana University has added a
course in journalism to its c~urriculu.n
and will undertake to instill into the
minds of aspiring students some knowl-
edge Of how a newspaper is made. The
department is in charge of a man who
has had experience in newspaper work.
and the attempt will be to avoid the mis-
takes made by other schools of the kind
and give practical, rather than theoret-
ical. instruction. The proposed course in
cludes study in English, history, political
theory. constitutional history n eco
nomics, and presumably the budding
journalists will be required to try their
lands at reporting and other depart
ments of actual newspaper work.
The studies mentioned are each n all
important. Familiarity with them means
a knowledge that every weil-equipped
newspaper man should have. While an
acquaintance with political history and
political economy may not be essential
to the proper reporting Of a police court
case or a street-car accident, it may be
found needful to the intelligent inter-
viewing of statesmen and politicians. No
knowledge that can be acquired, indeed,
ever comes amiss to the newspaper man.
In this profession, more than any other,
a store of varied information is neces-
sary. The higher and broader the gen.
eral education the better the worker,
other things being equal. 1t is the fash
ion to gibe at the college graduate when
he enters upon what he proudly terms a
career of journalism'-after the first
year he never calls it journalism; but it
is his vague ideas Of what real news
paper work means. and not his college
education, which excites amusement. As
a rule, ne is disposed to regard reporting
with scorn and to feel that his talent is
wasted unless he Ear help mold public
opinion" by contributing essays to the
editorial page. The only way in which he
can acquire a proper estimate of values
is through experience rs a worker, but
there is no reason why he should not
be better prepared in advance for taking
up the calling than is ordinarily the case.
The studies mentioned he would take in
any college course, but if he gets, in ad-
dition, a training in the art of reporting

counters later with the editorial blue
pencil and the elimination of his finest
rhetorical efforts. He can be trained to
brevity, conciseness, accuracy-above all,
accuracy-and the simplicity of the mar
rative style suitable to the relation of
daily events. And he can be taught that
reporting IS a field in which he may
shine. Mere routine reporting is more or
less drudgery, but if he proves a master
of his art, even that is not barren of op-
%portunity. Taken in all its phases, re-
porting affords a better opening for am
bilious youth than any other department
of newspaper work. He will get his real
training in his actual work, but he may
begin with a knowledge of its principles
that will greatly aid him. To this extent
a college course of journalism may be
useful.
