PAY TOO LITTLE.
Strong Argument on an
Important School Point.
Should Be More Than Meager Live
iihocd In the Professionalism
Of Ability Required.

lie great thc SuuSo-
ton Of children and so ably presented
by Colonel Parker at the Summer
School in his talks to large and inter-
ested audiences are everywhere not
only surely working their way into
the minds Of those teachers who re-
gard it duty to grow, but are being
in a measure grasped by many people |
in this and other lands.
One of the most serious problems.
confronting us as we stand ready to
enter the open door of the twentieth
century, is: What kind Of an educa-
ton and how much ought to be at
tempted in the schools?
The quality and quantity now pro-
viied do not meet the requirements
and fall far short Of laying a founda-
ton which will equip the future citi-
zen for the duties and activities of
life.
There is a widespread demand that
all school work be made more intensely
useful and interesting; that the dead
traditional school accretions of the
great past which have come to us'
largely by inheritance, must go; that
the terrible wastage Of time and energy
Of the children. the many years they
are in school on work which does not
assist them to become self-supporting
intelligent men and women, must go.
Public opinion would have the COM
mon school indeed 1.-THE bulwark Of
the Nation" 1t would begin REFORM
ing, proceed reforming and go on re-
forming forever. 1t would spare no
expense in erecting commodious up-to-
date school houses, with interior en-
bellishments of an historical nature,
and surrounded by an extended and
attractive ground 1t would have the
public school a notable institution, q
leading factor in molding its pupils
physically, intellectually and morally
thus insuring their becoming better
citizens.
This growing opinion would have
experienced, cultured, liberally-educat-
ed, successful instructors in the schools
at all points. 1t would have them
leaders in social affairs and ever ready
by word and deed to be a pillar OF
strength in all worthy works, rea
power in their respective communities
With this pressing demand for fuller
realization Of the foregoing high ex
pectation and qualifications, as we'll al
many more, yet this same public sen
timent views with pronounced disfavol
any movement looking to encouraging
those having a high order Of natura
ability to enter the profession OF teach
ing and make it a life work, or to re
tain even those teachers found compe
tent, by literally compensating tn
tried and competent ones, so as to en-
able them to acquire at least small
competence for old age which unde
the prevailing universal scale Of eX
tremely low salaries will be in no de
gree possible. Teachers Handicapped
by salaries which provide simply TO
the actual necessities Of a common
plain existence are mentally incapaci
tated for delving into the problems O

DEWEY HEARD FROM
REPORTS ISLAND OF PANAY IN
POSSESSION OF lNSURGEN
The island of Negros Has Declared Ind o
pendence and Desires American Pro-
tectorate-Iloilo san In Pos
session of Spaniards.

Washington, Nov 10. T. News has
been received at the navy department
from Admiral Dewey touching the sit
uation in the Philippines. The admiral
sent two of his warships, the Charles
ton and the Concord, some time ago to
the southwark from Manila, to seer
tain whether there was truth in reports
that insurgents had expended their
activities in that direction He has
cabled the department as follows:
charleston and Concord arrived to-
day from lloilo. Glass reports that the
entire island of Panay is in possession
of insurgents except lloilo, which is
defended by 500 Spanish troops. All
foreign citizens there beg for America n
protection. The island of Negros has
declared independence and desires
American protectorate,
Glass is the commander of the Char
lesion. SO far, nothing has been done
by the administration towards curbing
the insurgents in their operations save
verbal presentations from the Ameri-
can commanders to Aguinaldo, in which
it has been pointed out to him that it
would be good policy, in view of the
probability of the annexation of the
islands by the United States to pursue
a course that would not be obnoxious
to the United States But the situation
is now realized to be critical So far
as the Spaniards are concerned, per-
haps they can be left to take care of
themselves, but the foreign residents
at Iloilo are differently regarded.
The difficulty in the situation is that,
with the best intentions to intervene
to protect the Europeans and other
foreigners and to save the city of lloilo,
the second in Importance in the group,
from loot, the United States forces APP
pear to be stopped under the rule of
war from moving from their positions
Such is the construction placed upon
the clause in the protocol relating to
suspension of hostilites The immedi
ate effect of this state of affairs may
be to hasten action in the Paris CON
ference, for it is only by the termina
ton of that tribunal that the United
States can come to the relief of the
beleaguered Spaniards in lloilo and
other points

November % is fixed as the date on

days propositions and all othe sub

1t is also declared that the United

freedom of the Caroline islands as
agreed upon between the United States
and Spain in 1886, and also in the
acquisition of one of the Caroline is
lands for an American naval station
aud of cable landing rights at other
places in Spanish jurisdiction and the
revival of certain Spanish American
treaties, as heretofore in force.
The Americans also refuse to arbi-
trate article III of the peace protocol,
bearing upon the future disposit' on
and control of the Philippine islands.

QUEEN ILLS CLAIM.
Going to Washington to Demand Hawaiian
Crown Lands.

San Francisco, Nov. Eek Queen
Liliuokalaui of Hawaii has arrived
from Honolulu, accompanied by Col
onel &. w. Macfarlane and Hon. Paul
Nooman. The eN-queen excused her
self from newspaper men, but it was
learned that Lilioukalani will leave
for Washington in few days. The
object of her visit is to try and infiu-
ence congress to allow her to retain
possession of the crown lands, esti-
mated at S5,ooa,o 900
Liliuokalani maintains that, despite
the annexation of the Hawaiian is
lands to the United States, the crown
lands are her absolute private property
and this country has no more right to
assume ownership of the lands than it
has to take the property of any pri-
vate citizen.
The contention of President Dole,
the cabinet and the Hawaiian com
mission that the crown lands became
part of the United States upon the an
nexation of the lands, she takes ex-
ception to, and is hopeful that her trip
to Washington win result finally in
the crown lands against becoming her
private possessions

London, Nov. 21.-It is learned that
On Wednesday last, Agoncilla, the
representative of Aguinaldo, who has
been in Paris watching the proceed
ings of the peace commissioners, called
a meeting of the Filipinos in Paris and
London to meet him in Paris, when
committee was formed with the object
of doing everything possible to induce
France to recognize the so-called Fill
pino republic. A telegram was sent to
Aguinaldo, asking for Instructions and
this following reply is said to have been
received
Insist upon absolute independence.
Otherwise fight to the death. We are
all united and the government is pro-
crossing smoothly. All the independ-
ent tribes of the mountains are sub
hitting to Aguinaldo and the chiefs
are bringing presents of gold.
The statements made by General
Wesley Merritt, in reply to the appeal
of the Filipino junta of Hongkong to
the American people have caused in
dignation among the Filipinos. They
are specially incensed at the sugges-
tion that they would loot and at tho
idea of being governed as a colony.

SHARkEY DEFEATS CORBETT.
The Sailor Had the Big Califor MIA n Whipped
From the start.

New York, Nov 23.-The Sharley-
Corbett fight, which was witnessed by
the largest and most preventative
gathering of sportsmen that ever con-
gregated to see ring contest, ended
in most disgraceful fasco. Corbett
had all the worst of the encounter,
when, in the ninth round, one of his

the ring, appealing to the referee,
thus violating the rules, and the ref
cree, Honest John Kelley, had no
alternative but to disqualify Corbett
and award the bout to Sharkey Nc
Vey's interference was absolutely in
excusable, and the referee, believing
that there was Job" in McVey's ac-
ton, took it upon himself to declare
all bets off.
Sharkey had the best of the fight
from the start, and would undoubtedly
have landed his man Sharkey's
rushes were successful invariably, and
Jim's leg work was tested tc it's utmost
