DIR. Won Hoist ON OUR QUARREL,

That very eminent publicist and writer
DR.. H. Won Hoist. has written an admi-
rablel review OF our controversy with
Great Britain over Venezuela for the
Chicago Times Herald to which we can
not do justice by any mere summary,
though we shall mention some OF the
leading points.
The article is called out by a Wash
ington dispatch to that paper, in which
the correspondent represents that the
Republicans in Congress had determined
at the coming session TO make a great
clamor over What they inteded TO call
Mr.. Cleveland's pusillanimous foreign
policy, and that Mr.. Cleveland has taken
his peremptory stand with Great Britain
on the Monroe doctrine to take the wind
out of the Republican sails. and 10 have
the Democratic party stand squarely be-
fore the public as ready TO defend the
national honor or being as the Republi-
leans could possibly be.
II would be most humiliating to a self
respecting American II he could think the

LONGER NOON RECESS FOR SCHOOL

The effort made last year by The Times
TO have a recess at noon for school chill
dren long enough 10 enable them TO go
home and get comfortable meal, though
defeated for the time being, 10 bound to
win in the end.
Nature and humanity will continue 10
cry out against the present unnatural
and injurious arrangement OF school
hours.
In New York city, where an hour is
given at the midday recess TO enable the
children to 90 home and get their dinner.
a demand is now being urged TO extend
the time half hour more. and the argu-
ments for the health OF the children on
on the one side are met by
the opposition of those-mainiy teachers
on the other, who do not wish the length
Of their present evening curtailed.
The New York World says:
Commissioner Strauss. at the last meet
ing OF the Board OF Education. introduced
a resolution TO prolong the noon recess
at public schools TO an hour and half
instead OF the present one-hour recess.
The time lost by this change Mr.. Strauss
proposes TO make up by adding half
hour TO the afternoon session.
The schools now close at +. NJ, and
by the proposed arrangement would con-
tinue In session until $3.50.

says, that their children are growing dys-
pcptic az a result OF eating 100 rapidly.
The resolution. as told In yesterday 5

opposition from principals ana teachers
throughout the city.
The instructors do not az rue, go
home 10 lunch. and naturally object TO
having their days work prolonged hali

The members Of the Board OF Education
are puzzled how TO decide the question.
ON one hand they have received many
protests from school officials, and on the
other an equally large number or COM
plants from parents. children, and even
family physicians
The teachers claim. among other OBJ
joctions that if the extra half hour at
noon IS granted the children Will spend
the extra time in violent exercise. which
viii impede rather than aid digestion;
that the afternoon attendance viii be de-
creased. as many children have 10 work
after O'clock and that neither pupils
nor teachers can work TO advantage after
a heaVy noon meal.
The present one-hour-recess system has
been I'm vogue In New York public schools
during the past forty-seven years.
Throughout much OF New England ana
other parts Of the country, however the
noon recess has been Of two hours dura-
ton.
II we could have here an hour and a
half or even an hour noon recess, and
thus allow all the children to 20 home
and get a good, warm meal. it would
not be difficult for domestic matters TO
become adjusted accordingly, and the
benefits 10 the children would be such
that tho plan would never be given up.

Chief Executive OF this nation capable Of
being Influenced to official action in the
name of this country by such consid-
erstions. But Or. Won Hoist treats tho
case as though what Is said OF Mr.
CleveIand's proposed action were true.
and he combats the wisdom OF the
course.
He first combats the idea thag We
want any territorial acquisitions. IL
We should annex cuba, Hawaii. or any
Of the SOUTH American countries. we
should be always tempted to take hand
in the complications of foreign politics.
We criticise European powers for eat
ing up the substance OF the people TO
support standing armies. but we should
soon ind ourselves doing the same thing
with foreign dependencies.
Dr. Won Hoist declares himself as much
in favor Of increasing the power OF the
United States as any man. but, he asks.
cannot a country with room enough for
five hundred millions OF people be con-
tent with the power that our territory
and such a population as that would
give?
lie then asks If we have not problems
enough in the troubles that come from
the negroes OF the South and the anar-
chists that our immigration brings us,
that we must compiicate ourselves In the
future with the questions that our inter
ference with foreign politics Will bring
us?
These are only some Of the heads of
DR.. Won Holsts admirable paper, which
must be read 10 be appreciated.

A DRAMATIC SUCCESS.
How 'sThe Deacon Was Produced by
Stroudwater Amateurs.

The Stroudwater Social Club Friday
evening played the drama, The Deacon, !"
to one of the largest gatherings ever as
sembled at Quimby Hall. At an early
hour the seating capacity was exhausted,
nearly 300 being present. Much to the
regret of the company. many people re-
turned home, lot being able to obtain
seats. To call it a success would be
stating it mildly, and great credit is due
the club for it's able production. The
company was composed of the following
members: Miss Carrie NJ. johnson, Fred
l.. Bates, Miss Stella Walker, Henry
Batchelder. Frank McKenney, Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred H Libby, Mrs. Georges E. Flick
EFT, Miss Lizzie j. Milliken, Miss Fife
Pride, Melville j. Pride, Louis Pickett
and Percy E. Pickett.
The part of Daisy Dean, taken by Miss
Carrie NJ. Johnson. was assumed with a
grace and marked theatrical ability,
stamping her born actress, and in ap-
probation of her efforts, at the COM
mencement of the fourth act, she was
presented with large bouquet Of ele-
giant roses, by few Of her numerous
Portland friends. Pete, the darkey,
was cleverly played by Fred l.. Bates,
whose makeup was complete, and whose
telling hits and capital acting brought
down the house. George Wheeler, an
other difficult part, was played by Hen
ry Bachelor to great satisfaction, and
his ability as an actor is beyond ques-
ton. Mr.. and Mrs. Fred H.Libby were
excellent. The Deacon himself was
dlayed to perfection by Frank McKenney
and the remaining mem bers of the COM
pany did themselves proud; but to go
into detail would require too much
space. Much credit is due to Bertrand
r. johnson, the able manager, through
whose untiring efforts the success OF the
production is largely due. xxx !
