season on Monday Thursday and Friday
evenings and Saturday afternoon Of each
| week. He will come to Augusta next
has already begun the formation of an
| orchestra of ten pieces and piano, and
will reserve one evening each week for
series of orchestral assemblies, and will
probably issue his invitations next week
for them. He proposes to change the
juvenile class to Saturday and will so
arrange as TO give his beginners, and
advanced classes separate hours, thereby
advancing the interests of all. He has
now, it is understood, the largest juvenile
class ever gotten together in Augusta by
any teacher, and thers are many more Of
the little ones who will be only too glad
to join his new class and secure the ad
vantages of so popular teacher
He will also have one evening for an
adult class for beginners, and as fast as
they are proficient enough will change
them to the advanced class. The professor
has had large experience as leader of
orchestras, and by being familiar with
both music and dancing, will be able to
train his orchestra to play the proper
music in the right time for the different
dances thereby enhancing the pleasure of
the dancers greatly.
The beginners juvenile class will meet
on Saturday at $50 in the forenoon, and
the advanced class will have from two to
four in the afternoon to better accommo-
date the little ones, as it is so late now
many of the parents are at quite little
trouble to get them ready SO soon after
school, and 1t makes them late home
Undoubtedly all will appreciate the pro-
fessors determination to please his
patrons, and bis classes will be still larger
than ever.
He has promised to give the Journal a
detailed plan as soon as he gets here, and
no changes in the classes will occur until
after the next lesson.
AS teacher of dancing Prof. Young
has already proved himself to be one of
the best, and ne has not only instructed
his pupils in the art of dancing but has
taught them many things that are of
great Importance in every day life,
especially the children who are at an age
when early impressions are retained
through life. They are those little attcn-
tions the perfect manner of making an
address, how to approach lady in ball
room, how to seat her, and in fact the
very things that go to help make the
polished lady and gentleman and put one
at perfect ease in society.

on State street.
Miss Howe gave a short bat interesting
paper on How to Teach Fractions in the
Fifth Grammar Grade after which she
conducted q class exercise, thus putting
into actual practice what was suggested
in the paper.
The class, composed of 90 brilliant boys
and girls, showed considerable ability in
performing fractions under the different
principles which so much disturb the com
mon pupil at that age in school work.
The address given before the convention
on language as an Educational End by
Hon. y A Luce was clear and full of mean

of the best ways through which knoWl-
edge of language may he obtained. The
address was full of practical suggestions
and interesting to the teachers.

The San Francisco call., 1895-07-14

this country of Fourier's idea Horace
Greeley was an enthusiast upon this SUBJ
iect and spent good deal of time and
energy and some money in the effort to
establish associations or phalanges in
different parts of the country. He was in
terested in the famous Brook Farm expert
ment and sought to extend that work
elsewhere. We reproduce to-day letter
from Greeley upon the subject, in which
he urges upon his correspondent the
establishment of a phalanx near Cleye-
land, Ohio.
But Brook Farm was failure, as all who
have read Hawthorne's "Blythedale Ro-
nance" will recall, and so, also, were all
the similar enterprises based upon Fourier S
teaching.
Fourier's idea had it's foundation in a
psychologist principle which he claimed to
have discovered, and its expression in an
economic scheme which he believed to be
logical working out OF all human prob
lens.
The idea which he claimed as his discov-
cry was that the full, free development of
human nature, or the unrestrained indul-
gence of human passion, is the only pos
sible way to happiness and virtue, and
that misery and vice spring from the un-
natural restraints imposed by society on
the qualification of desire. His endeavor
was to show that the same fundamental
tact of harmony obtains in society, in or
ganic life, in a word throughout the
universe.
To bring about social harmony it was
necessary that society should be recon
structed, for, under the present social
organism, innumerable restrictions were
placed upon the free DEVELOPMENT of hui
man desire. The practical economic idea
upon which this reconstruction of society
was to be based was cooperative industry.
His cooperative scheme was most COM
prehenslve. Society as whole was to be
organized on the lines necessary to give
full scope to CO operation, and to
the harmonious evolution of human
nature. 1t was to be divided into
departments, or phalanges, each phalanx
numbering about 1860 persons, in
habiting a common dwelling and having a
certain portion of soil allotted to it for cul-
tivation. Out of the common gain of the
phalanX a certain portion was to be set
aside to afford each member a minimum
subsistence. Any member of a group
might vary his employment at pleasure,
and pass from one task TO another as the
desire influenced him. Private property
was not necessarily abolished, but abso-
lutte social equality was TO be insisted upon.
Marriage was to be abolished and its place
taken by very ingenious but at the time
little understood and much condemned
system of license.
One phalanx was established at Conde
Sur Vesgre in Fourier's day, but both it
and subsequent attempts of the same sort
proved failures.
We are indebted to Fourier for many
valuable and sound ideas on the subject of
cooperation. Indeed, he is Justly entitled
to be called the father of the modern CO.

To the lighter and more fippant class of
social satirists belongs the author of "The
Private Letters of Frenchwoman."
These letters are of the air, airy; they
picture the American woman as phan-
tom made by midnight moonlight shining
dimly on miasmatic fog The tenor of
the volume may be fairly inferred from
the subjects treated. These are: "Di-
vorcelets,' "Will the Kiss Become Obso-
lete?" "Old Mems Darlings," 'Love in
the Twentieth Century" "The Woman's
Men," 1.-THE Cynic in Petticoats," "Arms
and the Woman" " Professional Love
makers" Summer Morals of the New
York Girl" Elimination of the Old
Maid." after the Bicycle Girl, What?"
Garden Parties or Fliruations al Fresco."
If these topics are attractive to any one
then to that person will the volume be
attractive, for, while it is not witty, it is
written with a light and gay persifage that
will well amuse a summertime idleness.

day than is the real majority must be con-
ceded, but theirs is but a brief day, after
all, and even over them, in time. that
subtle, intangible but powerful factor
which we know as Public Opinion will
assert itself as making for National
righteousness.
But the part which our growing litera-
ture OF reform will play in this coming
crystalllzation of public opinion is one of
suggestion rather than of formation.
Whatever may be the influence, for in
stance, upon public thought of the many
books that have grown up about that one
entitled COINS Financial School," it is
not likely that either it or they will make
a lasting impression upon public opinion.
That factor In National life would, it was
once predicted, crystallize around the idea
embodied IN Bellamy's Looking Back
ward" but 1t is doubtful whether there are
many people who could to-day state cor
rectiy what that idea is. "a Traveller
From Altruria" has unquestionably set
people TO thinking, but consensus of
genuine opinion of the principles involved
IN Howells fine work would probably be
very difficult to obtain.
This is unquestionably a healthful indi-
cation. 1t is pre-eminently desirable that
we should have an awakened public opin-
ion on the burning questions of the day,
but it is equally undesirable that any au-
thor or any school Of authors should set up
public opinionary.
Yet this is the task which most writer's
on economics undertake. They forget that
the field they should occupy is that of
theory and speculation rather than that of
didacticism, and they waste valuable time
in fruitless endeayor to solve problems
which have not even as yet been properly
stated.
Two small books on economic questions
claim the reviewers attention this week
One of these, 'Looking Forward" +" is by a
local writer, who evidently prefers to hide
behind such inoognito as obtains in the mi
tials A. G. W. C. In this little hook the
author seeks to revive interest in a some
what antiquated cult, and his work is sim

Books on Economic Reform and
Other Subjects.

A great many books have lately appeared
dealing, or attempting to deal, with the
leading economical questions of the day.
Most of them, We must admit, are of i'm
portance, not so much because of the light
they shed upon the subjects treated, as be-
cause they seem significantly to illustrate
the trend of modern thought.
Beyond a doubt the American people are
deepIy in earnest in desiring to understand
and TO arrive at a solution of the weighty
governmental questions now pressing upon
the National mind and conscience. The
bulk OF mankind are honest in desiring
good government, sound money, equitable
relations between capital and labor, and
the most humane and righteous treatment

classes. The politicians, the money! bar

THE LARK.-Of all the small, intimate
publications just now claiming attention,
perhaps the one least understood is the
queer little San Francisco monthly
called The Lark. There are really
people who persist in taking The
Lark in a seriousness; who see
in its quaint illustrations subtleties of sar-
casm, of carIcature and of occultism that
would, doubtless, amaze the projectors of
the little sheet. To these minds the light
est notes The Lark utters are fraught
with deep significance. 1t seems incred-
ible to these minds that a publication
should exist that stands merely for the
joyousness of life, to sing song, to
catch a sunny thought upon the
point of pencil and transfer it to
paper = to provoke a tender smile
over what is tender and Joyous in
this world, which some people would have
US believe is wholly dark green and bright
yellow. These are some of the things The
Lark lives for and they are worth while,
after all. DroIlery and fun, innocent mirth,
are sides of life we are wont to make too
little of. We should thank Bruce Porter
and Gillett Burgess for bringing them
home to US, once in way in their quaint
little brown paper wrapping.

THE DIsAGREEABLE MANLY A. S. M.
The title to this book is an obvious piece
of claptrap, probably originating with the
publisher, who had in press book of the
same size entitled "The Disagreeable
Woman" "The Disagreeable Man. is an
unpleasant tale of blind girl married to
negro of whose race she is ignorant
She thinks him a sort OF Caucasian
Apollo. She regains her sight, and he
leaves her before she sees him. Another
lover appears, whom she calmly marries,
although there is nothing to show that the
pair are not fully aware that the dusky
husband still lives. There is p great deal
of sensuous loye-making in the book and
a very funny feature of the work is the
authors frequent lapses into erudition of
the strangest sort. Albinoism, the personal
habits of half dozen famous authors, the
nature and cure of rheumatic gout, the
status of the female population of Massa-
chusetts, are some of the queer subjects
which she leaves her narrative from time
to time to discuss at considerable length.

composition. To the other negroes
of the island he is almost god, and he
leads them in the insurrection for liberty
with the ardor of a martyr, the skill OF
statesman, the devotion of hero and the
chivalry of a knight errant, closing his lie
and sanctifying his abnormal love by an
act of self-sacritice worthy of a saint. The
exuberant creative power which in after
years was to produce that marvel OF
q reformed criminal, Jean Vatican,
is crudely manifest in this boyish
conception of the San Domingo slave, but
there are none but the faintest hints of the
genius that was to be unfolded later. The
romance has its only value in the fact that
it furnishes starting point from which to
measure the extent of Hugo's developm
from boyhood to manhood. In all other
respects it is as useless to literature as any
blood -and-thunder romance of the day.

The foibles of society are a fruitful
source of inspiration to scribblers. Shoot
ing folly as it flies has itself become folly.
Almost every one who wields pen sooner
or later tries his hand at the gentle game
OF pricking every airy bubble that shows
itself floating on the light winds of fashion
and disporting amid the sunbeams of
social life. OF those who write,
some are wise and some are foolish !;
some preach sermons and some are
more fippant than the society they
seek to satIrize while they amuse.
