Public School System.

DUBUQUE, To-, June 24.-Archbishop
Hennesy created sensation by an at
tack on the public schools in an address
to the pupils at st. Claras academy,
Sinsinaw, Wis, this afternoon. He
denounced them as irrelgious, and
therefore dangerous for future genera
ticns; claimed that the Catholics paid
Cne-seventh of the five hundred mil
liens which it costs to support the pub

privileges of religious education. and
that in addition to this seventh the
Catholics pay $40,0O0,00O for the educa-

schools. The entire address was de-
nunciation of the public school system
and laudatory of the parish schools.

The Teaching of Literature.
New York Post.


The growing use of masterpieces of En-
glish literature as textbooks for college,
entrance English has undoubtedly caused
many a schoolboy mind to conceive
strong prejudice against them Let alone,
he might have come TO them IN maturity;
but made grinding textbooks, they snare
in after life the neglect of all other school,
day textbooks. This is saying nothing
against the use of masterpieces for exam
nations; only with the good goes the evil,
ana the evil is the inevilable ASSOCIATION of
task work with what should be matter
of pure delight.
Even apart from this serious difficulty,
it is d hard thing in the nature of the case,
almost an impossible taing, to teach a
taste for good literature. The love of let
tiers is a mysterious wind which bloWeth
where it hsteth. Nothing is more futile
than to think there is any sure way of
bringing it by whstling for it. 1t appears
amid the most unlikely anteeedentS, and
it refuses to appear where every condition
is apparently favorable OF all prohtless
ars and writers give of their first steps in
the appreciation of good literature yield
the least guidance. They are usually vain
attempts 10 recall what IS lost 10 memory;
and even admitting the accuracy of the re-
membrance, the mysterious jog to the
spirit which makes the boy cry out, why,
this is hteraturer'--the birth of discrm-
ination which is the beginning of wisdom
in matters literary-all these things escape
US. This, of course, is no argument against
giving an innate taste for literature the
very best possible conditions in which to
develop; it is only a warning against sup
posing that the multiplication of aids and
technical apparatus can make head against
stubborn nature.

He Knew the Constitution.

Among the peculiar characters who have
started in the practice OF law in St. Jo-
seph," said an attorney to the reporter,
came from the country to study. He was
great on the Constitution of the United
States, and wherever he is now he will be
found referring to the Constitution every
ten or fifteen minutes. l believe he will
make a success of life finally, and if he
dces it will be on account of his knowl-
edge of the Constitution of the United
States.
Young Scott studied law in the office of
Sam Green, and initiated his preceptor in
like Sam Green, wa ked like him and
talked like him. Added TO all of that was
his talk about the Constitution of the
United States When he made a speech
before justice of the peace-he did not
practice in any OF the other courts--he
spoke of the Constitution dozen times.

refer to the Constitution. He knew all
about the Constitu llon--had 1t by heart
and I believe he could have said ii back
wards Before he came TO the city that
was the one thing he had learned, and
learned well. He could read and write and
figure % little, and repeat the Constitution,
and probably recite the Declaration of In
dependence. That was the foundation on
which he was 10 build fortune, and wher-
ever he is now he is at work building the
fortune on those lines.
Reading the Constitution probably de-
veloped in Scott the desire TO become a
lawyer, and am certain that II MADE an
orator of him. He afterwards learned
Webster's speeches, and that helped him
along on the road to oratory. After Sam
Green died he felt that there was nothing
here for him, and drifted away. He went
10 California, where he practiced law.
From there he went to Little Rock, and
became the city editor of one of the pa
pers. The next time heard of him he was
i'm New Orleans, building up a lucrative
practice. He was still using the Constitu-
tion of the United States 10 the best adj

Constitution inspired a youth TO leave the
