TRAINING LI1lL- CHILDREN.
A Woman of Experience Says, ''Mothe
Live Close to Your Little Children"

A Woman of Experience Says, "Mother
Live Close to Your Little Children"
1t has always been mystery to III
how mothers could deceive their chill
dren when they go to make calls am
ters and even church. / have seeL
mothers get some one to take the atten-
ton Of the little ones while they would
slip off. The baby would cry when it
knew its mother was gone. The little
ones are thus taught deception before
they leave the cradle.
From long experience think the best
way is to tell them you are going, but
will be back as soon as you can, and tell
them where you are going 1t seems to
satisfy the child, and it will tell others
mamma has gone to such place, but
she will come back as soon as she can
Mothers make great mistake when
they do not live close to their little
ones, and when they begin to talk it is
time to begin to teach them their let
tiers. They will learn easier then than
at any other time.
1t is very easy task for a mother to
point to the letter A and say, "This is
A for apple, this is e for baby, this is G
for cat. and this is D for dog" Get it
once fixed in the ohild's mind, and it
never forgets. taught all my children
at home, and some of them could read
in the second reader when they were
years old.
The professor at our academy once
said to me: There are but two fami-
lies who patronize my school that teach
their children at home, and one Of them
is yours. assure you thoses taught at
home have great advantage over those
that are not.
think it is cruel to drive very young
children to school to sit in an uncom-
Portable position for hours listening to
things they do not understand That is
the case in country schools where there
are but one room and one teacher l
have known parents to drive their lit
tie children to school with switch, but
I never knew one that was treated thus
that made good scholar. When the
child is in school, the teacher perhaps
is rough and cruel and some of the
pupils are bad and unruly and have to
be punished When that is being done,
it is enough to scare the little ones into
fits.
A mother can teach child easier
than any teacher. She can make a play
of teaching by spelling words on blocks
that have letters on them. Some of my
children became SO anxious to learn the
alphabet that they would ask me the
names of letters on the stove when I
was cooking. They went first to select
school in our country neighborhood. A
friend said to me, "Why is it that your
children have their lessons better than
mine when they do so much work morn
ings and evenings and mine don't do
anything?" I said: II think it is the
work that helps them. let them help
me, and it does them good. After they
wcrk at some light work an hour or
more they will sit quiet and study their
lessons much better than when they do
not work. And l think it is of as much
Importance for childen to learn to work
as it is to be educated. Parents, live
close to your little children, for of such
is the kingdom.

By exposing an absurdity in the statutes,
Louisiana judge, while showing his dis
gust for prize fighting has been forced to
decide that there is nothing in the law to
prevent the Olympic Club of New Orleans
from holding exhibitions and conducting
so-called championship contests. This
opinion settles a case that has been pend
ing for over year and permits the club to
resume its contests. The court concluded
that the act OF 1890, which was supposed to
be designed to punish prize-fighting in the
state of Louisiana. virtually permits it by
the uncertainty of it's terms. He character
lied the statute as piece of legislative
fraud and mendacity, and said that it
practically makes prize-fighting a legiti-
mate business and domestic industry. He
found that prize fight is a glove contest
without gloves, and that a glove contest Is
a prize fight with gloves; that In each
case there Is a duel with fists for a prize
in each there Is manning and blood-shed-
ding. and in each brutality and danger to
life and limb. Therefore he declared that
the statute which prohibited prze-fghting
while permitting glove contests Is a mock
cry and he set 1t aside as useless. This de-
cision will go far towards clearing the legal
atmosphere in this matter. A bad statute
has been denounced by a fearless Judge
and perhaps an effective law will now take
its place.

In the absence of any explanation from
the Cuban authorities of the action of the
Spanish war ship in firing at the United
States mail steamer Alliance there is ex-
cellent ground for believing that there has
been a violation of international courtesy.
of the vessel she was considerably beyond
the three-rnile limit, within which she
might be considered as being subject to
the surveillance of the Cuban government.
This last condition, however would prevail
only under a state Of war, but the United
States is not now officially cognizant of the
existence of any strife in Cuba. 1t is at
peace with Spain and does not know Cuba
as being in state of belligerency. From
all the circumstances it would appear as
though the act were that of Lasty. in
considerable commander who, imagining the
Alliance to be a possible flibusterer, un-
dertook to stop her by firing at first blank
and then solid shots. The latter for
tunately did no damage, but this does not
affect the question in point as to whether
the Spanish government. through its
agents, has not inadvertently or other
wise insulted the flag and endangered the
peaceful carrying of international mails
1t Is altogether probable that when all
the facts have been laid before both gov
ernments an ample apology will be made
by Spain for what appears to have been a
stupid blunder.

Attorney General Olney has spared lit
tie time from his defense Of the odious in
come-tax law to make a Soundly sensible
decision in regard to the presence of troops
in New Orleans during the levee war. The
New Orleans authorities, having taken no
steps themselves beyond the ordinary and
totally inadequate police precautions to
quell the riots. appealed to the government
for aid. In the absence OF the President.
Mr. Olney decided without further consul
tation that the federal troops could not be
sent until the state had exhausted all her
resources to keep the peace. The reports
SO far received indicated that the state had
practically done nothing, and the refusal
for the present of the Attorney General to
act Is to be commended There is no ques-
ton that the situa ton at New Orleans was
very serious and the governor had appar-
emily been negligent. To appeal to the
President for aid was a natural thing to
do but 1t was a too obvious attempt to
shift the responsibility for the ordering of
troops upon the shoulders of the national
administration. When New Orleans and
Louisiana have made serious effort to
check the rioting and to punish the rioters
and have failed, the application to the
United States for assistance should be re-
newed

In demonstrating the power of organiza-
ton by labor the Springfield Republican
calls attention to the fact that although
the labor unions of New York state in
1894 had a combined membership of but
la5.3O3. a small proportion only of the
working people in that commonwealth, yet
the unions combined have a considerable
political influence. And when they strike"
continues the Republican, they make the
industrial world stand on its head" The
Industrial world did seem to turn a good
many somersaults and to do q good deal
of reversionary acrobatics in the vicinity
of Brooklyn last winter when a few of the
unions went on 4 strike because with good
reason they were not wholly pleased with
the management of the local street car
companies. Indeed it Is to be feared that
a large part of the Industrial world of
Brooklyn Is standing on its head yet, and
that the labor organizations of the City of
Churches have not succeeded in getting
their feet on solid ground to this day.
Combined labor will be greater political
factor when 1t begins to realize that the
value of strike is not in proportion to
the frequency of such demonstrations, be-
coming more effective with each recur-
renee. On the other hand, like any other
powerful. radical remedy, it loses its force
with each repetition of the dose. Physi-
clans testify that medicine loses its power
for good as the constitution becomes accus-
toned to its use. Were the ordering of
strikes made matter of more difficulty
and responsibility there would be fewer of
these agitations, which almost invariably
fail to produce the desired result The GUS
tomary flood Of strike literature that has
followed the Brooklyn troubles. which is
always to be expected after each of these
disturbances. brings to hand a great mass

Of these almc st useless struggles. The fis-
cal cost Of the Brooklyn strike is estimated

probably never be known, for there will
