gwen the men bearing sucn names as
Arsenius Tsrnoievitch or Kubo Zlotlor-
zinski." Huns have been made post
masters in some places and have begun
to elect their own justices of the peace.
1t is noted as "a hopeful indication that
they have begun to leave the company
houses and the boarding houses and to
establish themselves in homes of their
own. Some of them have grown rich
that is, rich for Huns.
The second generation is not, in Mr..
Gibbons opinion, an improvement on
the first. He states that the immi-
grants, with few exceptions, could read
their own language, but that their
children are. taken from school and put
to work before they have made much
progress in rudimentary education.
Few of them go to the public schools
and there is slim attendance at the
parochial schools. These are the newt
able results of the great reduction of
wages in the coal and coke regions
Almost every evil is productive of
some good. The Huns are better off in
Pennsylvania than they were in their
own country. But it will strike the
general reader that Pennsylvania has
paid, is paying and win long con-
tinue to pay a heavy price for the
betterment of the Huns condition. =

THE TROUBLESOME HUNS
Their Unsightly and Unruly Colo
MES in Pennsylvania.
Mining Towns That Arc Like the Slums
of Our Great Cities-Lawiessnes
and Bloodshed on Sunday
and Pay Day.

{" A recent number of the American
Magazine of Civics contains an interest
ing article on the Pennsylvania Huns
by w. +. Gibbons. These troublesome
residents of the Keystone state are not
genuine Magyars, not, strictly speak
ing, of the Hungarian race, but Slavs,
like Russians and Poles. Their first
introduction in Pennsylvania was the
work of employing corporations, which
imported them to cheaper labor. The
law soon interposed barrier against
this Importation, but the immigration
of Huns was not interrupted. The
wages they get in Pennsylvania, al
though too small for Americans to live
on, are greater than they receive at
home, SO they continue to arrive. Coal
miners meet them in New York and
offer them work in Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Gibbons cites tie crusus tables,
showing that at the latest enumeration
Pennsylvania contained 24,001 Huns
and the United States but ", 425 The
Pennsylvania HUNS are mostly collected
in the comparatively small anthracite
coal regions of the Wyoming and
Schuyll<ill valleys. A single county.
Lucerne, contained in 1890 as many
Huns as the entire state of Ohio. Since
1890, despite hard times and the return
of many immigrants to their own coun-
try, the number of Huns has largely in
creased.
The mining towns where these peo-
pie live are like the slums of our great
cities. The streets are filed with gar
bage, and riots, often resulting in homi-
cides, are expected on the Sunday after
every pay day. OF course most of the
original Inhabitants have left They
did not stand upon the order of their
going, but got out with dispatch. In some
towns only few voters remain. The
murder of Hun by one of his own race
creates no demand for justice in the
minds of his surviving countrymen. IF
the survivors be approached" says Mr.,
Gibbons, "and urged to call in the law
they will grunt expressively and re-
mark with more or less distinctness:
Dead Hungari no good" Indeed, an
ordinary murder passes almost with
out comment"
But these people are not incapable OF
learning some lessons in the school of
experience. They have been cheated
and blackmailed outrageously by dis
honest officials at the mines and by
English-speaking miners, but they have
gotten their eyes open at last and are
extremely alert. They have learned
the art of saloon keeping and they are
getting into politics. Mr.. Gibbons says
that already in some communities there
is 'the shadow of the coming Hun
garian political boss" I'm every list

political meetings prominent places are

SAID ABOUT CHILDREN.

The plays of children are the germinal
leaves Of all later life.-Froebel, in the
Child in Thought.
The questions of pure child are often
the most searching that can be asked
Harriet Beecher Stowe, in Footsteps of
the Master.
Every incident inscribed on a child's
brain grows deeper with years, like
names cut into a gOurd.-Jean Paul
Richter Memories of Childhood.
Pleasure and pain l maintain to be the
first perceptions of children, and l say
that they are the forms under which
virtue and vice are originally present to
them.-Plato, in Laws.
Childhood in a state of spontaneity.
The heart answers truly to all
impressions from without, as the aeolin
harp answers to every touch of the
breeze.-Edmund H. Sears, in The Child
in Folk Thought.
The touching confidence of children,
who may be disappointed, but are never
discouraged. Hope in a child
that has never known aught but despair
is sublime and affecting thing.-Victor
Hugo in Les Miserables.
Children have always a sympathy in
the agitations of those connected with
them; always, especially, a sense of any
trouble or impending revolution of what
ever kind in domestic circumstances
Nathaniel Hawthorne, in The House OF
the Seven Gables.
'Impossible!" Experience writes the
word in the dictionary of the man. In
the child's vocabulary it has no exist
ence. The marvellous to him is perfect
ly natural. Things which he sees to be
beautiful arrange themselves along his
path; why should he have doubt OF
this or that? By and by, exact bounds
will limit his domain.-Mme. de Gaspa-

A good story is told of a war of
words between the paradoxical Oscar
Wilde and a witty Bishop whom he met
at social gathering. Church and stage
crossed swords and it was not the
church that bit the dust.

Wilde, bowling low and smiling ironi
cally, ito my shoe buckles
Il am yours" said the courtly Bishop
ito the ground"
The author of "An Ideal Husband"
continued:
Il am yours to the center of the
earth.
The pillar of the church quickly re-
sponded:
Il am yours to the antipodes."
Oscar Wilde began to feel decidedly
nettled Indignant at his defeat by a
mere clergyman and man oe piety, he
exclaimed, as last thrust:
Il am yours to the lowest pits of de-
struction."
