The Prettic.t English Princess.

From st. Pauls.
A new excitement has been provided for
these interested in court news in the re-
port that there is a possibility OF a mar
riage being arranged between the Princess
Maud Of Wales and the Archduke Franz
Ferdinand, heir presumptive to the i'm
perial throne of Austria. St. Paurs does
not attach much Importance to the rumor.
as the difficulties with regard to religion
would appear, at the first glimpse to be
irsuperable The dislike, also, of the
princess to settle in any place which would
remove her far from her mother is well
known. Still, any suggestion RS to the
marriage of the royal lady in question is
worthy of notice. as Princess Maud is one
of the prettiest and most fascinating MEM
bers of the courts of Europe. She is far
better looking now than when she first
came out, and. as one of the Marlborough
House party remarked lately, she grows
more charming every day.
She is bright and clever, and, without
being really witty, is most amusing in
conversation. Although 1t would not be
fair to say the prince prefers her to his
two more quiet daughters. he certainly
finds more pleasure in her society, and
whenever he rejoins his family at Sand
ringham 1t is Princess Maud to whom he
at once turns to learn all that has been
going on, and she may be seen for an hour
at time hanging on her fathers arm as
they stroll up and down the terrace.

The British cup challenger Valkyrie took
her first trial spin in American waters yes
terday and clearly showed herself a power
ful boat, how powerful it was impossible to
Judge under the conditions of the trip al
though the Vigilant ran beside her for a
time.
Valkyrie got under way shortly after 3
O'Clock. 1t was just the breeze said to be
best suited to the English yacht. Only her
1nainsail and jibsail were set, but they were
both of enormous size and splendid in their
setting.
Shortly before o'clock Vigilant passed
outside Of the Hook, and Valkyrie fol-
lowed her until of the East Beacon light
house, when the cup challenger put about
and headed back for the bay. She went
through the water fast and stood up re-
markaby well in the breeze of about nine
knots an hour; but, the experts said, threw
up more water about her bows than De-
fender would under like conditions.
After reaching point to the northward
Of the Southwest Spit, Valkyrie went about
for the second time, and in doing so she
astonished all the "cranks." She simply
turned on her heel as though she had been
on a pivot.
Valkyrie afterward made a couple Of
tacks inside the Hook, but those who were
handling her never let her best form be

Defender in Good Trim.
The Defender will meet the Vigilant in a
trial off Sandy Hook again tomorrow.
The Defender, in company of the tug Wal

Palmer. reached her moorings off Premium
Point, New Rochelle. yesterday. Later in
the day the Defender took a short spin to
the eastward as far as Captains Island,
returning to her moorings at G:30 o'clock.
Capt. Half, when seen on board the De-
fender last night, said that the wind was
light and variable, but that the work of the
Defender was entirely satisfactory. Capt.
Nat Herreshoff is subjecting the spars to a
searching and careful inspection. AL re-

The Curfcw Law in the West.

From the Indianapolis Journal.
One or two Indiana towns have recently
made unsuccessful attempts to introduce
what is known as the curfew law. The
idea is borrowed from Minnesota. where it
has been applied in quite a number of
towns, with alleged good results. The rea-
son assigned for its enactment in many
Minnesota towns is the growing incorrigi-
bility of children and the belief that it is
promoted by the habit of running the
streets at night. There is reason to fear
there may be some ground for the main
allegation, not only as to the children of
Minnesota, Sut as to those Of Indiana as
well, but the remedy is not to be found in
curfew laws The true remedy for juvenile
incorrgibi]ity is better home training and
parental restraint.

Instructions to the Sheriff Regarding
the Big Fight.
AUSTIN, Tex, August 2S.-Attorney Cen
eral Crane has given out his second OPINION
anent the Corbett-Fitzsimmons prize fight
at Dallas, in October. This opinion was
called for by an interrogatory propounoed
by Sheriff Cabell of Dallas county, as to
whether, in suppressing the fight, he was
legally empowered to shoot and Kill those
who interfered with him.
The matter was referred to the attorney
general by the governor, and he handed
down his opinion, holding that In the line
of the discharge of his duty, the sheriff
certainly had the right to use firearms II
the emergency demands. The attorney gen.
eral bases his opinion on the statutes gov
erning riots, etc. He holds that the par
ticipants in the fight, their seconds, referee.
etc., will comprise more than three people
and inasmuch as they are assembled for
the purpose Of violating one of the stat
utes they are an unlawful or riotous as
semblage and lay themselves liable to
summary dealings If the emergency arise.
The attorney general argues that these
fighters with all those in attendance will
certainly be gathering in violation Of the
law. and that under the law the sheriff or
any sworn peace officer is bound to disperse
said assembiage at any cost.
AS to the question OF killing those who
interfere with him, the attorney general
CITES article % OF tRe PeHa& eoue, HH1cA
says:
Homicide is iustifiable when necessary
to suppress riot, when the same Is at
tempted to be suppressed in the manner
pointed out in the code of crime procedure
and can in way be suppressed except
by taking life
The attorney general also adds at the
close of his opinion that &hale he does not
think there will be anye occasion for
the sheriff to shoot any tneiin peaceable
city like Dallas, that if the emergency does
arise and 1t will necessiea tet his shooting
and killing those who interfere with his
duties, he will in no wisee be held re-
sponsible for murder. 81 tA

The Tokyo Chamber of Com
merce has recently addressed a
memorial to the Imperial govern
ment regarding the development of
the mercantile marine. They rec
ommend, among other things, the
establishment of an American line
of large steamers, capable of being
converted into cruisers in time of
war. Several of the Japanese
steamship companies, says the
Japan Mail, are also considering
the subject of transportation lines
to the States. Japan is deficient in
iron ores, but has al abundance of
cheap coal. 1t is believed that
iron ore of the best quality can be
obtained on the North and South
American coasts, and it may be
cheaply carried to the coal supplies
of Japan. The active minds of the
Japanese see the supreme necessity
of commanding cheap iron, in their
rivalry with the Occidental world,
and they will get it, if it can be
had.

EDUCATION ON A BROADER BASIS.

i practical educational lesson is
drawn by the editor of the Progress
sive Educator from the dastardly
and idotic libel committed in Homo
lulu lately in the form of written
poster" Mr.. Townsend sees no
occasion for surprise that a man
with the ability to read and write
should be "knave and fool enough
to do such a thing" How long,"
he asks, will it take for the world
to find out that ability to read and
write is not education-is no part
of education ? At best, ability to
read is but a means Of education,
and in large percentage of cases
this means is not applied so as to
realize its proper end. It is de-
cidedly possible for man without
such ability to be better educated
than another who has IL. Educa-
ton is the perfecting of character.
Ability to read may serve this end,
or it may not do so. All depends
upon what a man reads, and how,
and when" He also points out
that the fundamental error of our
old schools was in making read
ing, writing and arithmetic the
center of all school work. Ito
concentrate upon language is to
concentrate upon a means of edu-
cation rather than a part OF educa-
tion."
While the guardian spirits that
presided over the little red school
house" did their work well and
were a necessary factor in the de-
velopment Of the broader ideas Of
what education really is, the people
of the present generation have
come to know that in many in
stances, the theory and practice of
the old school of education resulted
in giving a man just enough edu-
cation to make him dangerous. 1t
was not unlike putting rifle in
the hands of a child and letting
him exercise his own ingenuity as
to how, when and where he shall use
it. Fortunately the mistakes of the
past have been recognized and
there is a strong and almost uni
versal movement to teach in earli-
est childhood the principles that
will lead to the proper application
of the "book learning" however
meagre it may be, that may be
gained in later years.
