THE FUTURE SCH00LH0USE.

suggestion made by DR.. Nicholas
Murray Butler, of New York, in recent
address that public schoolhouses ought
to be made the centers OF the intel
lectual life of the neighborhood, has
oeen cordially commended by the press
OF that city, and it is probable it will be
carried out to some extent during the
coming summer. This il the beginning
OF another phase in the evolution in the
American schoolhouse and tends to in
crease its usefulness and widen its scope
OF service to the community.
DR.. Buffers idea is that, as school
houses belong to the public, the people
should be permitted to use them for all
purposes. which are not political or re-
llglous, SO far as such use does not inter
fere with the conduct of the schools.
The idea is not altogether novel, as sew
eral school buildings in New York have
been opened during past summer vaca-
tions to society which provides instrhc
tion and entertainment for the people in
the locality, but the new movement
would go beyond this simple beginning
halls for all literary, artistic, scientific,
or debating societies which are at all
public in their nature and would not do
injury to the building.
1t will be seen that this movement,
carried to its full extent, would make
the ighborhood schoolhouse something
of civic center, a general gathering
place for all who sought any kind Of in
tellectual occupation. 1t would be
place where lectures, concerts, debates,
recitations and studies of all kinds would
follow one another evening after evening
from the beginning to the close
OF the week. In short such school
house would be a little university settle
ment, and would include in the scope of
its service to the community everything
which tends to the diffusion OF knowl-
edge and the increase of culture.
On all sides we see evidences OF this
widening OF the use of the schoolhouse.
AS the church has begun to develop al
institutional church in which arrange
nents are made for many services not
included in theology or a strict defini
been growing beyond its original object
of providing place where children are
taught reading, writing and arithmetic.
In our age the period of study does not
end with childhood. Men and women
are continually reaching out after new
truths and new ideas of old truths. A
demand for room for. adult education
has grown up. and Chautauqua circles.
university extension clubs, civic centers
and university settlements have come
forward to meet the requirement.
Where are these various classes of
students to meet? In what edifces of
our cities are rooms and halls for their
needs to be provided? The new institu-
tioual church is wide, but it is still too
narrow for such expensive claims as the
growing culture of our people puts for
ward. Will the public schoolhouse pro-
vide it? or are We to establish new in
stitution among us and erect in our
cities something like the gymnasia of
ancient Rome and Athens, where all
people can gather to recreate themselves,
to exercise, to listen to music, to hear
and TO tell something new every day.

Sleepy. Dull. Languid

and morose, is the way you feel when
your liver fails to do its work properly:
in consequence you suffer from indiges-
ton, biliousness and dyspepsia. You
have don't care' spirit and "play-
ed out' feeling, and everything tires
you.
To set the liver in action, purify and
enrich the blood, and to strengthen
and vitalize the whole system, take DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
Having a peculiar tonic effect upon
the lining membrane of the stomach
and bowels, it makes a lasting cure of
all stomach, liver and bowel disorders.
BY increasing the blood supply, as
well as enriching it, all the organs of
the body are strengthened, and the
nerves are fed on pure: rich blood.
Neuralgia is the ''cry of the starved
nerves of food;" nervous debility and
exhaustion, sleeplessness and nervous
prostration are in most instances the
direct result of a starved condition of
the blood. The true way to cure these
ailments permanently is to take the
Golden Medical Discovery which
was discovered and prescribed by an
eminent physician, DR.. r. V. Pierce,
at present and for near thirty years
chief consulting physician and special
ist to the Invalids' Hotel and Surg ical
Institute, Buffalo, N. Y. If you want
a medical opinion on your case, write
him. 1t will cost you nothing.

They Prefer Men.

ga woman can not sell shoes to other
women" said a prominent shoe dealer
to Washington "Star" reporter.
''Strange as it may appear, women
will make their selections and purchas-
es from male clerks every time, and it
is for this reason that SO few shoe
dealers employ women clerks. While
women will buy shoes from male clerks
they would not think of buying stock
ings from them. It's not only in this,
but in all other cities in this country,
that this is true. Now, in Europe it is
somewhat the other way, and in many
OF the larger shoe esta blishments there
are more women clerks than men
clerks, and women customers prefer
the women clerks nearly every time,
except in the case when the purchasers
are American. They prefer to deal
with the men clerks. In buying shoes
women are much more confidential
than men are. a man-that is, the
great run of men-doesn't care so
much for looks as he does for comfort
aud fit. With women this is reversed.
They make comfort and fit secondary
to the matter of looks. Somehow wO-
men think that the mau clerk has
better judgment in the matter OF looks
than any woman clerk has or could
have. There is no use trying to argue
the question even if there Was any
room for argument. Dealers have to
recognize the fact and be governed by
it. 1 have never had a woman ask me
why L did not employ women clerks,
while | have had hundreds of men ask
that question. Now, while men will
ask that and similar questions there is
not one in one hundred who would buy
their shoes from woman clerk, if We
had them. l suppose it is the laws of
trade which regulate such matters.
Certain it is that | don't know any
thing of the causes, though l have
been selling shoes for over thirty-tive
years. 1t is to be presumed that l
would have learned something in that
time about it, but 1 confess 1 have
not. ''-EX.

The Last Boat Race.

Poughkeepsie has resumed its won't
ed humdrum air of quietude, and river
traffic that has been needed for the
last ten days is no longer interferred
with. The final boat race came Off last
evening on the picturesque Hudson
over the four miles course, between
Cornell, Colum bia and the University
of Pennsylvania, and it was a disap-
pointment to all lovers of good boat
racing. 1t was procession, with Cor
nell again in the lead, fifteen lengths
ahead of the Columbia University boat,
and Peunsylvania-we she fell by the
way side bright and early. In fact it
was picnic for Cornell all the way.
The water was rough, especially
where the Pennsylvania men pulled,
and ere the second mile flag was
reached, the lack of wash boards on her
boat had resulted in the shell becoming
so loaded up with water that further
progress was impossible. The crew
stopped rowing, and were picked up by
their launch. The other two boats
in smoother water, Jared better. But
Columbia proved mere child's play for
the Ithacans who won with hands
down in 20:41 to u 20 for the New York
ers. There was no enthusiasm. aud
the attendance was small com par
ed with the previous races.
The Columbia freshman crew was
the better of the two sent up from New
York and had the freshmen only start
ed their squirt a furlong earlier, the
other day, they would have beaten
their Cornell brethren. That Column
bia freshman crew was something
great, and as the university crew for
next year can not help very we'll dis
tinguishing themselves.

LOCAL LEFT OVER.
Saturday News Pulled From the Forms
Because of Injunction Decision.


A very large crowd turned out last
night to hear the third McGinty band
concert of the season IN the plaza.
The police kept pretty sharp watch
for disturbers of the peace, and par
ents were more considerable than
usual of the rights Of others in keeping
better track of their children. SO tn at
the screeching kid nuisance was great
ly diminished. Moreover, the S. p.
yard engine never showed up once,
and there were no freights along to
bother and annoy. The courtesy of the
railroad company was appreciated.
The program proved popular" but
it was noticed, as in the two previous
concerts, the heaviest and most CLASH
Cal numbers received the applause,
while the popular Cocoanut Dance
it was well played. The selec-
tion of the evening was the Over
ture to William Tell, strictly
classical, "long haired" number, and
yet people around the band stand who
said they knew very little about music
took pains to tell the musicians their
approval of that number. The trio by
Srs. Concho, with his clarinet, Souf1l e,
with his saxaphOne, and Hernandez,
with his baritone, created something of
a furore, and were deservedly encored.
This was a pleasing innovation and
shows that solos and small ensemble
numbers from members of the band
would prove popular here as every
where else. The men played in good
time and with spirit last night, so that
the entire performance was satisfac-
tory. There were thirty-fve men on
the stand, with only two absent, the
bassoon and cornet. There is call
for the overture to Stradella, and selec-
tions from Gouuod's Faust next
week

JAPAN is one of those governments
that is prompt to look after the rights
of its subjects abroad. Some time
since two Japanese were employed as
cooks in a hotel in Kern county, Cal.
The citizens and miners round about
held mass meeting and demanded the
discharge of the Objectionable orient
ais. The lady proprietress of the hotel
declined to accede. Another meeting
was held and the Japanese were in
formed they must leave, which they
did. They at once laid the matter be-
fore their consul at San Francisco and
he communicated it to the japanese
minister at Washington, and now
Secretary Sherman has sent to the
governor of the state and sheriff of the
county for particulars.

YESTERDAY was the day fixed upon
for a general strike among the bitumi-
nous coal miners of Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, West Virginia and
Kentucky, the number of men involved
being estimated at 100000. The Off
GERS OF the United Mine Workers, in
naming the day for the strike, urged
the miners to see to it that no breach of
the peace should occur, at any time or
place or under any circumstances. Or
dinarily strikes are hasty, inconsiderate
and uujustifable, and usually work
greater hardships to those indulging in
them than to any one else; but if the
report of a legislative committee and
other disinterested parties who have
visited and inquired into the conditions
in and about these mines be true, this
great strike is not only just fable but
commendable as a blow for release from
a system of slavery infinitely more gall
ing and degrading than that which ex-
listed in the southern states prior to the
war. AT the prices paid and through
the methods and rules adopted by the
mine owners these white slaves make,
by long hours and hard and dangerous
work, but from $3.50 to So per week, the
average not exceeding 81 per week the
year round, and every cent of this pit
lance is exhorted from them by the
mine owners through exhorbit rents
for cheap houses in which to live and
extortionate charges for the necessarie s
of life kept in company stores, from
which every employee is compelled TO
buy-and this while the miner is pay
ing 33b per cent per annum profit upon
the total estimate value of the property.
