MORAL EDUCATION NEEDED
tBrinkley Gobe.l

tDriuhiSJ oAopS'i Generally speaking, when educa- tion is mentioned the mind reverts immediately to intellectual qualifica- tions. The great majority of our neople appear to have lost sight of the necessity of educating the finer sensibilities of man-the faculties upon which are really builded all ln- tellectual and physical education. We refer to the moral education ofI man. It is not a difficult matter to find men who are intellectual and phvsical monstrosities-men who, In their ambition to acquire knowledge, have failed to observe the moral science of life. Men who, in the in dulgence of animal passions, have become like the wild beasts Of the forest and vultures of air in their dis positions. Experience and obserya- ton teach thinking people that men who are given up to sensual lives, disregard the moral law that requires them to do unto others as they would be done by. They become beastly, not only in thought, but action: hence the drunken brawls, murders, robberies and a multitude of indiscriminate and criminal acts.
 On the other hand he who devel- ops the mental faculty and neglects the moral, becomes likewise unjust and fanatical in his life.
 Any system of education that neg lects either the mental, moral or physical is wrong The well bal anced man is he who has pursued the study of each with equal vigi- lance. He who, while running down mental science, has also chased the elements of moral science, which, when rightly comprehended, pre- vents men from abusing the physi cal, and making beasts or tnemselVes The great trouble lies in the fac1 that the masses are ignorant of tht principles of morality, except a' they have absorbed them from th' environments of their lives.
 Until our schools have adopted general system of Moral develop ment. which will ingraft into tn hearts and minds of the children tn moral responsibility of life, we cal not anticipate a symmetrical educa tion. And school that does TO educate the trinity of human attrl butes is not worthy of patronage o respect.

About the time the bloomer was first invented in America, some 40 years ago, the Maoris, or natives of New Zealand, were emerging from eannibalism. Now the daughter of the old king is fully up to date new woman, dressed in boomers and riding bicycle.
 The young Maori chieftainess, in ad- dition to her royal descent, has obtained a prominence of her own that makes her the most conspicuous and popular figure in New Zealand. She prefers to be known by the simple name of Pansy :"
 Pansy is very comedy young woman, and it is pleasing sight to witness the attention and difference paid to her by the beaux of her race These dusky gen. tlemen are exceedingly proud of the we'll set up Maori girl, and they watch over and attend to her wants with q touch of gallantry which knows nothing of antipathy to rational dress.
 When Pansy first burst upon view at the Park race course, Napier, the events on the programme were for some mo ments forgotten, and glasses by the score were leveled at the dusky beauty.
 But Pansy bore her honors and the scrutiny and the chaff with perfect ease and was admired when she rode hei wheel past the stands. Boston Globe.

How long the bloomer girl will re- main true to her boomers if she has to forsake her lover will be new feature. The recent breaking of an engagement between we'll known couple was due to so modern cause. The fiance, meet ing her on a wheel clad in bloomers. demanded that she change them for skirts The fance refused. Boomers were worn, but the solitaire was hand ed back.
 Woman's ability to judge of dress bet ter than man is well argued. When 1t comes, however, to losing good, hon. est lover, then she had better waive all questions of rights and submit in the good old fashioned way, and then if her surrender to him gals her bit, why, she may give him a burned beefsteak or two in the later days to get even. --Bos' ton Journal.

STORIES OF THE DAY.
4 Few Entertaining Bits About the
 BIoomer Girl.


 One bicycle episode in the park recent ly afforded some excitement. A horse, owned by John Mooney of Shaw place, and young woman in boomers on bicycle were the actors. The girl rode we'll and seemed to enjoy 1t, and she circled the lake several times. As she was on her last lap the horse ran away and dashed wildly down the drive to- ward her. She looked back and saw the frenzied brute bearing directly down on her.
 There was only one avenue of escape open, and she took it, though few men would have the presence of mind to do the necessary thing. She made quick. short turn toward the lake, and went over the bank. A shout of horror went up from the crowd as they saw the girl and wheel fly through the air for 12 or 15 feet, then drop into the lake. The water was not more than three feet deep, but the girl and wheel were both submerged. The girl foundered to her feet, gasping for breath, and with her pretty hair and erstwhile jaunty oos- tume elinging tightly to her rounded figure.
 She was assisted to the shore and es- corted to the cottage by score or so of sympathizers. While her wheel was be- ing tished out she managed to wiring most of the water from her clothes, and finding that her bicycle was not broken, she mounted it and rode away. | Louis Globe-Democrat.

Cuban Insurgents Turn General

THREATEN A MOVEMENT ON HAVANA
Only Fifty Miles Away With the

MAY ARRIVE TOMORROW

HAVANA, December 2i.-Gomez and the
insurgent army have turned the flank of
the Spanish forces commanded by General
Campos in person at Colon and are how
we'll to the westward of that place, threat
ening a quick movement upon Havana.
This news from the front has created the
greatest CONSERVATION here.
The insurgent army is now only about
fifty miles from Havana, and the Spanish
authorities seem to have entirely lost their
heads. At this rate the insurgents will
be in front of Havana possibly tomorrow.
If they have obtained control of the rail-
roads from here to MatanZas. which seems
not impossible, as they were only few
miles from Matanzas when last heard from
and moving rapidly westward.
A report has reached here that a battle
Is being fought this afternoon between the
Spanish troops and the insurgents, not far
from Matsnzas. The report cannot be con-
frmed.

BATTLE SHIP BIDS.
Report of the Board of Naval Bureau
Chiefs on the Subject.

After several weeks consideration, the
board of naval bureau chiefs has recon-
mended the acceptance of the bids Of the
Newport News Dry Dock and Shipbuilding
Company of Virginia to construct battle
ships and on the plans of the Navy De-
partment for $2,250,000 for each. In the
event. however, that the Union iron works
of San Francisco, the next lowest bidder, at
$2.T40,0O0, shall scale down their bid so as
TO leave only a reasonable difference be-
tween their figure and the s2.25O, 900 asked
by the Newport News Company for one
ship, 1t is recommended that each of these
companies be awarded the contract for
building one vessel. The Secretary still has
before him the alternative proposition to
ask Congress for authority to accept the
bids to build six ships of the kearsarge
class, two to so to the Newport News Com
pany, two TO the Union iron works, and two
to the Cramps, on condition that all of the
bidders shall meet the figures set by the
Newport News Company, in their bid,
namely. s2,2o0,O00 for each ship. The Sec
rotary has taken the bureau chiefs report
under consideration in connection with this
alternative proposal

Ireland is for the Monroe Doctrine

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Is The Star quite sure. per editorial
of yesterday. that all Europe outside of
Russia will sympa thize with England's view
of the Monroe doctrine?" Is not what the
accomplished scholar and patriot, Edward
Everett said on September 0. 1862, to the
citizens of BostoncAs true today as It was
at that date? Il rejoice" said the great
orator. Ito believe that We have the SYM
PATTY of the people of Ireland. but from the
nature of the case they cannot help us with
anything but kind words and good wishes;
but the cordial sympathy of millions of her
true and loyal hearts in this laHd-the CO.
operation of their strong, brave arms on
the battefed-is enough of itself TO turn
the balance of the momentous struggle in
our favor" Governor Robert C. Winthrop
followed on the same lines The closing
speech Of Judge Thomas Russell was signih-
cant.
1 quote a brief paragraph:
THE next speaker was Judge Thomas
Russell, who said he had been engaged all
day in hearing claims for exemption from
the draft. and many had been before him
claiming this exemption on the ground that
they owed allegiance TO Great Britain, but
he was glad to say thai not one of them
claimed to have been born in Ireland"
And not alone are the sons of Ireland in
the United States and their sons ever ready
to take their lives in their hands I'm be-
half of their beloved republic against ths
power of England, but also the Irish race
in Great Britain-the strangers in strange
land-and in Canada and far-ofr Austria
laSia.
The resolutions adopted at the Boston
meeting pledged support to the government
in putting down the rebellion, commended
the loyal men CT the arm and navy. and
Resolved. That I'm this most trying period
of our coCntry's history. our adopted citi-
Zcns of Irish origin have shown themselves
well deserving of the boon of citizenship,
and Of the warm welcome they have ever
met with from the American people, and
have proved themselves noble representa-
tives of the first martial race of the old
world by renewing again on our battle
fields their VOWS of allegiance TO the land Of
their adoption. j. ID. O'C
