The State Committee of the Irish
Nationalist Federation of Massachusetts,
has issued an appeal for contributions to
help the Irish cause in the coming Eng
lish election. 1t is pretty safe to say that
the Irishman who uses dollar or five
dollar greenback to light his pipe with
will help the cause of Ireland just as
much as if he sent it across the water
consigned to the Irish Nationalist. The
Irish party has split up into factions, each
one of which is fighting the other much
more vigorously than it is fighting Eng
lishmen, and every dollar collected in
America will be used not to advance the
cause of home rule, but to assist in'down-
ing one or the other of these factions.
When the Irish at home present united
front and agree upon what they want and
tn best way to get will be time enough
for Irishmen in America to send them
their dollars.

1t is pleasant to know that the Defen-
der gives great satisfaction to her build
ers and her owners, and that Valkyrie
III meets equally well the expectation of
her proprietors for with both parties
having full confd ence in their respective
boats there will be no lack of vim and
enthusiasm when the race comes off. The
English have had rather Indifferent sue
cess in contesting for the cup on this side
of the water and the same may be said of
the Americans when they have sent their
yachts abroad. Perhaps familiarity with
their own waters goes far to furnish the
explanation in both cases. But it seems
to be pretty clear that the English are
going to make a better fight for the cup
this year than they have done before-at
any rate the evidence seems to be pretty
conclusive that Valkyrie III is better
boat than any that has yet competed for
the cup.

(From the Philadelphia Record
A few days more will witness ..the end
ing of the cable system as a means of pas
senger transportation in Philadelphia.
Within a week every remaining cable car
on the Market street main line, the last
link in the cable system, will be dis
placed by the trolleys. The passing of
the cable cars marks a step sin the pro-
gress Of street railway facilities in Phila-
delphia. When the system was introduced
it was looked upon as solution of the
problem of rapid transit and on the
strength of this problem of rapid transit,
and on the strength of this opinion the
Philadelphia Traction Company invested
a fabulous sum, estimated to be in the
neighborhood of eight million dollars, in
equipping the Market street, Columbia
avenue and Seventh land Ninth street
lines.
But while they were an Improvement
over the jogging horse cars, they by no
means proved satisfactory, and it is with
no regret that the cable system hasfollowed
the horse car lines in giving place to the
trolleys. The cost of construction of the
cable lines was enormous in comparison
with the equipment of the trolley lines,
the cost of operation was greater, and
the service rendered was less efficient. AS
a consequence the cable cars have been
forced out of service by the system, which

Spain is preparing to increase her troops
in Cuba to 60, 900. This shows two things,
that the rebellion is a serious affair and
that Spain has no idea of abandoning her
colony The most violent repressive meas
ures have already been resorted to by Gen.
Campos, proclamation having been is
sued to the effect that rebels taken in arms
will be sunmarily shot, and that men
suspected of sympathy with the rebel
cause will be sent to the Spanish penal
settlement in Africa. The history of the
last rebellion shows that these are not
empty threats and that they will be saw
agely executed.

We may not realize President Andrews's
ideal school for many years to come, per-
haps never and yet there is little in
it impossible of attainment. During the
past twenty five years great strides have
been made in the schools, especially in
the manner of housing them in the larger
places. A person need not be very old to
recall when the waste places of the cities
and villages-places that were undesirable
for anything else-were generally
selected to locate the school house upon,
and when the house itself was plain,
four sided, barn like structure, with little
or no attention paid to its ventilation or
its surroundings. Something like
architectural beauty distinguishes the
new school house of the present day,
