Ideas OF the Former, a. 10 How They
Would Use the Lattes. y
DR.. George E. Dawson OF the Bible
normal college, has classified answers
received from 1907 pupils of the public
schools OF this city, given in response
to the question: .'1tyou had IS, all
Your own, what would you do with it?'S,s
s.of those who passed in answers, 500
were boys and l63S iwefe girls, thelr ages
ranging from five 10 sixteen. The am
swcrs were grouped under nine heads:
Forty four per cent would deposit the
money In a bank, 1913 per cent would
buy clothing, 20 per cent would buy
something 20 eat, 1853 per cent would
buy toys and other means OF amuse-
ment, 81 per cent would buy jewelry.
and anery, 9-lOths OF 1 per cent would
buy firearms, ~ per cent would spend
for travel, II per cent would spend for
others, and per cent would buy
books, etc. It Is interesting to note tiSai
large per cent who express a dsposIS,
ton to save. DR.. Dawson attributes
this largely to the suggestibIilty OF the
the children; the results In this respect
resemble those obtained In other fields
of experiment. While the children do
not fully realize the Significance of saw
ing, the idea has been engrafted upon
their minds, and Is bound to have its
influence. The fact that this idea OF
saving has been thus forclbly Impress
ed on the minds OF SO many IS very
Significant, and gives US hint Of the
immense ibeneft of public instruction.
In noting the per cent OF those who
would bug clothing, It should be remem-
bered that many Of the children were
In urgent need OF something better to
wear. Those who voted for something
7 to eat were mostly under the age OF
seven years OF age. Infthe class who
would prefer amusement. the girls
usually expressed a wish for dolls. and
doll carriages. while the boys mostly,
desired pigeons, rabbits or other pets.
In regard to travel, the figures show
that. as children grow older, the de-
sire to go out In the world increases
rapidly, reaching Its height at about
the beginning OF adolescence. The de-
Sire shown by the boys for firearms Is
an expression OF the hunting instinct
that awakens when they are ten or
twelve. AT that age, boys like. to get
hold OF books OF hunting and adven-
,ture. The tendency to buy books in
creases steadily as the children grow
older. That class numbers about twice
as many girls as boys. The class who
manifest feeling OF altruism I also
numbers more girls than boys, showing
that the greater generosity OF women,
Is strikingly manifest eveen at an early
age.-Springfield, (Mass.,) Republican.

THE INTELLlGENCER.
WHEELING, MARCH ~. 1893.
The Flood of ,Ds

1t was but natural that o Dig river
was expected as a result OF the heavy
rains that had been reported up the
MoronGahea, Allegheny ard Beaver
4 rivers. and the general rains that had
I prevailed Throughout the Ohio valley,
but few expected that the volume OF
water would be so great as that which
we are now experiencing. and it may be
I said that freshet which has assumed
the proportions Of a serious flood was
something that was unlocked for by
those who are upon the low grounds
along the Ohio. The unusual rains.
however, have brought a more serious
situation than We have had since 1884,
land the water has already wrought a
great deal OF havoc.
The aggregate amount OF the property
dana sc, the inconvenience to property
holders and the occupants of dwellings
thatare flooded. the suffering among the
poorer people who can least afford to
experience such a food, the interference
with traffic and trade, and the general
situation throughout. not only. in Wheel
ling and vicinity, but all along the river
from Pittsburgh dnwn. are resultant
effects of storms which no human hand
could stay All tina. can be done is to
make the best of 1t, and to accept the
afiiction as cheerfuily as possible.
Just what the dana &C will be In the
sections suffering most from the high
water cannot be told until the flood sub;
Seides and the general cleaning up pro-
I cess reveals what has been done. We
can only. hope thatSwc may be spared a
calamity ike that OF 1854, the greatest in
tho memory OF this generation. It Is
fortunate that these freshess come in
such a manner that those who come in
Z their pathway have opportunity to pre-
1 pare for them. and thus avoid the great
losses THAI otherwise would be sustain
Sed. For this Ill communities affected
should be thankful. The Ohio valley
!. has experienced higher waters and
Z greater damage than che present HOOD!
will entail and the people and: the COM
mercial interests affected have learned
howsto accept such visi:ations philoso-s'
phically. with resignation. and to take
( such measures as will reduce their et-
fleets to the minimum. M
AT such times there are always people
In thlnly populated communities who
are caused more or less suffering from
4 losses which they can III afford by rea-
y son Of thelr poverty, to say nothing Of
( The sickness and hunger that may en-
sue. These people should not be for,
gotten by their more fortunate neigh
bors, and II there be any In this COM
rnunlty who will need aid ne feel sure
they will not be forgotten. while the
residents OF the. higher portions Of the
city will unite in sympathy for all their
less fortunate brethren who occupy the
Island and the lower portions OF the
main city and the towns below US.

NJ The following paragraph from the
Register Is a sample OF how parry pre-
tudice sometimes cannot be restrained
even in a trying moment that is facing
the chief executive OF the Nation, and
how. a partisan Journal feels called upon.
10 strain itself to make on unwarran;ed
criticism; m &
It IS now The policy OF the President,
according to Trustworthy Washington
dispatches, to have Congress adjourn
;overlfrom Thursday TO Monday, to give
the President time to examine the Maine
report and formulate action thereon.
This Will not please the people, much bet
ter than the scheme to have Congress
adjourn for good. Congress, represents
the people, and should be ready to act
in a great crisis. A
I.iwould be hard to conjure a reason
for the remarkable statement that It
will not please the people" to give the
President time to give the report Of the
Maine board OF inquiry q proper consid-
Grafton and to prepare message to
Congress with his recommendations
based on the result of the consideration
after 1t has been placed in hts hands
The three days suggested certainly
would beslAtle enough time. Do the
people expecti,he President to, take such
important executive action without any
consideration Of me official report7 The
people expect nothing of the! kind, nor
does Congress. which has been standing
by the administration and patiently
waiting for the board to complete its
work, formulate It's report and send It to
the Executive, to.whom It was Its duty
to, report. What does the Register ex-
pect?.
Certainly Congress represents the
people" and so does the President, and
the people do not expect either the Pres
ident or, Congress to take action without
due consideration of the official report
after Its receipt In Washington. The
people are common sense people, in
spite of the efforts OF journals of the
yellow stripe TO prejudice the public
against a policy which shows wise and
careful judgment, instead OF hasty jim.
golsm. Whatever may be the result of
the present crisis, history will 'rindicase
the course which has been pursued by
the cool-headed man at the wheel.
Again, we repeat, why should not the
President have time to examine the
report, on { which so much de-
Ponds and which imposes SO much re-!
sponsIbility upon him, and to formulate
his plans?
