ADMISSION TO SCHOOLS.
Children Who Are Qualified Can
Enter at Any Time.

meeting of the principals of the st. Paul
public schools held yesterday afternoon
at the Central high school building The
greater part of the session was taken up by
c. c. Curtiss. of Minneapolis, who delivered
an address on vertical writing
Supt. Smith brought up an interesting
question as to admission of pupils of the
lower grades of the schools ait all times of
the year. There has been general impress
sion among the principals that pupils could
only be admitted in April and December
Prof Donnelly said that he thought that it
was rule of the board that admissions be
made only during these months
Supt- Smith said he did not understand
that there was any such rule. If there was
they were between the devil and the deep
blue sea, as the state law gave the citizen
the right to demand admission for his chill
dren to the public schools at any time The
compulsory education would make such q
rule invalid. The rules provided scholars
who were qualified could enter the schools
at any time and those not qualified during
February, April and September. 1t seemed to
be the general practice with some Of the
principals to restrict registration to these
months in an cases.
As result of yesterdays session scholars
who are qualified can enter AL the schools
of the city at any time, although 1t Is more
desirable to have them enter at the beginning
OF the term

The Habit oil Suspicion.

To The st. Paul Globe:
am not an 'irate parent" nor have a
personal grievance. but 1 should like to call
the attention Of your readers to the habit Of
suspicion" which is fixing itself upon many
or our teachers. I admit that the wear and
tear of a teachers life is apt to make her
sore with the world and suspicious of its con-
tents. but Is it not possible. through vigor-
GUS exercise of the will, to check this ten
dency In the interest Of herself as well as her
pupils?
suspicion not only breeds suspicion, Tut con-
Tempt, hatred and not infrequently the very
vice suspected. Would it not be better to let
some rougishness go unexposed than to charge
innocent pupils with offenses Of which they
are not guilty?
This habit Of suspicion is not more hurtful
to the pupil than to the teacher, and 1t is in
no spirit Of Partially that this comment is
made. e n q

APPEAL TO HON. THOMAS B. REED.
The Twin Champions of WOman's
Suffrage Plead for Hawaiian
Women.

Honored Sir We, notice with keen in
terest bill before congress to regulate the
political status Of the inhabitants of Hawaii
In our opinion it is a grave bIunder at
this stage OF civilization. as a new century
dawns upon us, to establish ''rnale
oligarchy'' In amy of the territories that have
lately come into our possession.
The marked feature in the legislation Of
the present century has been the growing
liberality Of our laws for women, until in
four states they have been crowned with all
the rights Of American citizens. The women
OF Hawaii should be accorded the highest
position occupied by any in the United States
But the bill before congress, by limiting all
official positions to male" citizens, adds a
depth to womens degradation we OF the
states have not yet experienced.
We can hold every official position from
president down to school trustee, but the
women of Hawaii would be denied all official
positions of dignity and power should this
bill pass congress.
If the men of our republic have not the
justice and wisdom to establish a government
of equality in all their new possessions, they
should at least avoid giving woman an in
ferior position to that already attained here
especially as the most important step to a
higher civilization is the education and ele-
VdCfOH Oh the mOtnerS OF the race.
1t would be grave mistake to begin the
century with rstrogressive legislation for
women naturally looking to our flag as a
protection for all their inalienable rights
Your sentiments, honored sir In favor of
the enfranchtsement of women have been so
freely expressed on many public occasions
that we appeal to you with confidence to use
your official position to prevent, II possible
this proposed legislation. perpetuating, as it
will, in other ATTITUDES these inyidious dis
tinctionS OF sex.
Elizabeth Gladly Stanton
Susan B. Anthony
There Is an unusual activity among the
suffragists as well as the anti suffragists Just

advocates of equal rights are extending
thanks and congratulations to the new ex-
ecutive for his support.

merous circumstances were, received
at the department from the tea trade
ut New York and other Eastern cities
against this appointment, mainly on
the ground that uniformity In the tests
could be secured Only by limiting the
examiners to the lowest possible num-

board Of tea experts at New York also
reported against making st. Paul a
tea examining point. The Importers
and jobbers in the Twin Cities, how

A gentleman of sixty is frank
enough to tell the readers of Popular
Science that in his youth he was so
completely under the dominion of the
passion of anger that he was brought
to the brink of crime and delirium. At
twenty he became discreetly aware of
the danger and ashamed of the weak
ness. Then he set about the task of
self-conquest, and with such success
that for the last twenty years he has
not once given rein to anger. In all
ages men have committed acts of
violence against each other in hot
blood; but the doctor would probably
say that a much greater number have
shortened life, besides impairing its
quality. by the ervou expenditure
wasted upon an irritable temper.

amount fixed by the house of $145 a
