Train Wrecker On Trial.

ROME, n. Y, April 30.-The jury
in the case Of j. Watson Hildreth
the young train wrecker, has been
secured and District Attorney
Clock opened the case for the peo-
pie last night. He laid considera-
BILE stress on the confession made
by Hildredth and gave the portion
Of his remarks under the objection
of Mr.. Sayles, counsel for Hildreth.
Hildreth's face was as colorless as
usual, but as Mr.. Clock proceeded,
1t became somewhat flushed. He
sat through the long speech with
his head resting on his hand. The
father, who sat behind his son, did
not change his expression. Mr..
Clock gave an account Of the crime
and the subsequent developments
and the jury was evidently i'm
pressed. The court took a recess
until today, when the taking Of
testimony will begin.

The Paper Greater Than the Individual.
A broad-gauged newspaper man,
who is a thorough Bohemian,
should not take unto himself per-
sonslly criticism of the paper. The
paper is, or should be, greater than
any individual editor, proprietor,
or manager. AS a rule, it's a poor
newspaper that exists only on the
personality of some particular per.
son or persons connected with it,.
The reader and general public only
know 1.-THE News" "The Post,n
"The Express" "The LIGHT" etc.,
and but little thought is ever given
as to who is editor, manager, press.

SHORT STOPS.
What the People Are Saving.

What the People Are Saying.
An orthodox hell was once
popular idea. Corporal punish
ment was the only expiation of
sin; a lake Of burning birthstone
the orthodox destination for all
sinners. The orthodox hell wac
companion piece to the orthodox
whipping post.-the orthodox child
beating.
Thank God, we are no longer or
thodox barbarians.
The child beater and the wife
beater belong to the same class of
brutes, only that the child beaten
is the most despicable of the two,
because the child is the most help
less creature.
Our public schools are supported
by the money Of the people, rich
and poor alike. Our public school
teachers are the employees of the
people. They are paid twelve
months salary for less than nine
months service; their hours of
work are regulated from 9 a. No. to
Bpm.
Our teachers should be first-class
men and women; the crank, the
invalid, or the brutal character
should be unknown in the ranks
OF our teachers. The peoples
schools should have the best ser.
vice Of the very best people.
The resort to the lash as a means
of enforcing discipline is a relapse
into orthodox barbarism and ar
acknowledgement of inefficiency
on the part of our school deport
ment. The lash is a relic of sla
very; it was resorted to as tn,
easiest and surest method Of pun
ishment. But in these days o
civilization and humanity, ever
the brute animals are protected
by law from cruelty.
The man who beats a horse /
promptly arrested, and brought be
fore the courts for punishment
five protect the horse, the Gov
and the dog from cruelty, hoy
much more should we protect on
children, who bear the image O
God, from the lash.
Child beating makes liars an

Over Five Millions OF Dollars
Are to Be Expended in
the Work.
INCREASE IN THE ARTILLERY.
Two More Regiments and Probably
More Will Be Added to the
Regular Army.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 21.-The
subject of coast defense is receiving a
great deal of attention from the scientific
departments OF the army.
Large contracts, involving the expen-
diture OF five or six million dollars, are to
be awarded soon for the furnishing of gun
forgings, manufacture OF a number of
rifles under private contract and the pur-
chase of material with which to begin the
preparation of various sites for the bat
teries determined upon.
Land for the emplacements in the ma
jority of cases has already been purchased,
and where it has not condemnatory pro-
ceedings are being taken to secure it.
The entire plan for the defense of more
important cities has been completed and
approved by the department, but SO careful
is it. not to permit outsiders to learn the
character or strength of the Notifications,
that it will not be until most of them are
nearly completed that the cities they are
designed to protect will know the actual
number of guns manned.
The allotment of $4,000 600 appropri-
ated by the last Congress has been made
with the view to protecting larger and
more exposed cities from sea attack
smaller towns for the purchase of
land. 1t is certain that all the larger
Notifications will include in their
armament a number of 16.inch rifles
by far the heaviest type of gun ever at
tempted in this country and of which
there are but few abroad. Recently the
War Department has purchased forgings
to begin trial gun of this caliber, and if
/ it proves successful twenty will be manu-
factured for the larger cities.
General Craighin, who will direct the
work of preparing the emplacements, re-
fuses to discuss the question at all or to
intimate the nature of the defenses of any
city. He believes that all questions of
defenses should be guarded with rigid
care by the War Department in order to
prevent foreign Governments from secur-
ing information, none of which would
think of permitting the United States to
acquire similar information as to foreign
defenses.
The construction of this great line of
defenses means substantial increase in the
standing army in a few years, and es-
pecially of the artillery branch, to which
will fall the work of manning and caring
sor them. Nearly all the Notifications are
at cities where the artillery branch
is either unrepresented or the gar
rison inadequate TO the new de-
mands, so that with the completion
of the defenses and the erection
of new barracks the army will be called
upon to furnish at least two more regi-
ments of artillery and possibly more, as
the work OF protecting the country from
sea attack progres es. This means that
there will be a wide distribution of artillery
along the seaboard aud new garrisons
established at points which have not
known the presence OF Federal troops since
the war period.
