The Chief Obstacle.

There is unquestionably one serious
obstacle to the enlargement of the reg
ular army to include 100000 men. II
is not that such an army would i'm
pose a serious strain on democratic
institutions. Those who make this
claim do not believe it. They merely
talk about it for lack Of something
better TO say. Nor is it that we Do
not need such an army. Those who
say that volunteer soldiers rushed to-
gether in an emergency constitute i'm.
mediately an effective national pro.
lection say what is not true and what
most of them know is not. The vama

caution against organic attacks. In
saying this, not injustice, but justice
is done TO the volunteer. The place Of
the volunteer, while the regulars suf-
fee, is at home with his wife and
baby; only harm can come from trying
TO mix unnecessarily the vc .ations OF

In fact, the need Of an enlarged reg

necessity of argument to every man

who sees and thinks: the hullabaloo
against II in congress is merely the
let-off OF partisan bluff But the OBJ
stacle to the army's enlargement is
the reluctance of men to enlist. The
regular army needs to be made over.

The verdict of $4,000 damages which
a Chicago jury has just awarded to Re-
porter Maxwell in his suit against Nat
Goodwin is an instructive one. Max
well had written a play and submitted
1t to Goodwin for inspection. Subse-
quently Goodwin returned it as un-
available, but afterward produced a
new play built on MaXwelrs as a
model. The jury before whom these
facts came took the view that it was
an ordinary case Of theft ana decided
that Goodwin would have to make res
titution. The decision is certainly one
to be commended and it ought to ex-
"rcise a wholesale restraint upon the
growing disregard of property rights

The University Of Pennsylvania.

The report Of Provost Harrison OH
the University OF Pennsylvania for the
year ended Aug. 81 1897 is a docu-
ment containing many facts of inter-
est to all friends Of education, Penn
sylVanians more especially.
In that year the total attendance at
the university was 1884, an increase of
% over the year next preceding. In
cluding Implications of pupils who took
two or more courses, the department
of instruction which showed the great
est gain in attendance was the college
of dentistry, wherein the gain was 50,
or II per cent. The college proper
gained 81. or only 2 per cent. and the
medical school lost 3S, or about per
cent. The overcrowding of the medi-
cal az compared with the dental pro-
fessiOn is doubtless the reason for this
relative showing. AS showing the
growth of the institutions fame 1t de-
serves to be noted that while the at
tendance of pupils from within Penn
sylvania was 3S smaller than in the
year next preceding, the attendance
from places outside the state was 81
larger. The attendance from other
states was 762 and from foreign coun-
tries, SS.
There were in the university at the
time this report was prepared 25S pro
fessors, lecturers and instructors; but
this was not the whole of the instruct
ing corps. During the year 10000 books
and several thousand pamphlets were
added to the main library, bringing the
total up to 160, 900 volumes. In addition,
S35 periodicals were received. The gem
eral public should know that few uni
versities in the country are so well
equipped for instruction by voice or
type as is the institution in West
Philadelphia.
Did space permit. we could devote
columns to a review of the enlighten-
ing facts contained in this admirable
report but must be content to call at
tention to one more point only. Is it
advisable for parents to send their sons
to be educated in a large city? On
this point Provost Harrison briefly
is more dangerous to young man than
is small village. 1t has been said
that the meanest vices exist in the lat
ter. / do feel that hereafter a students
life is to be made so full and abund-
ant and large, in our university city,
that the standard of conduct of the
best men in all the classes will be so
guiding and influential that the noble
college of a great seat of learning in
an American city will be a distinctly
safe and proper place during the criti-
cal period of a young mans passing
from youth to manhood"
On this subject the public, of course,
must finally form it's own Judgment,
But in doing so it must not forget to
take into due consideration the indis-
putable fact that the University of
Pennsylvania, situated where it is and
being as it is, is a great fountain head
of the healthiest currents of good liv-
ing. No institution in the country IS
doing more to distribute knowledge and
culture most widely or to lay. among
the masses of the people, better
foundation for the development of good
character and good citizenship. IT is
the kind of antidote which we need to
offset the corrupting tendencies of life
in our larger cities.

THE AMBITIOUS ASS AND THE
NONLOQUACIOUS SPHINX.

A Jackass of ambitious mind
Approached the biggest Pyramid,
And, being very much inclined,
Got out to climb It, which he did.
With upward eye, and judgment neat
The clever beast achieved this feat.
He boasted that a Jackass could
Do anything as well as men.
And (groaning much) he swore he would
Forever henceforth do so. Then
He wrote his name with pointed hoof
Upon the twelve square feet of roof
And after that he turned and clumb
Directly down the jagged side,
But missed the path by which he'd come
And falling to the bottom died.
OH 1t was bitter thro' boast
To have so chan ged from ass to ghost.
The Sphinx he heard the crash and
laughed
And twitted at the sorry shade,
Whereat. the latter, altho chaffed,
Plucked up his spirits some, and said:
"Old numbskull which one of your acts
Is written down in book of facts?'
Say. Item: Sphinx a general was
Or Item Sphinx was very brave
Oh, Item: Sphinx was rich because
lie had lot and never gave
You're just a Erubby lot of stone,
With neither wit not flesh nor bone
Whereas, l climbed the Pyramldv'
The Sphinx replied: you ass! You did"

1t costs the people of the United states
STA, S6j a year for a chief executive, says
an exchange. His salary is $4,000. His
private secretary. the clerks, doorkeepors,
messengers and steward, and three other
servants cost S33S65 a year. Then there
is a contingent fund of $1,000 year which
the president may use according to his
discretion. In furniture and repairs to the
white house the sum of $4,000 more, to
be used by the direction of the president,
is provided by the nation, and is always
expended For fuel alone $1,000 is allowed,
and for necessary repairs to the green
house there is $1,000. Altogether the
presidential "fnding" annually amounts
to the snug sum of $6i, $50, nearly $1,000
a year more than his salary.

Mrs. james Burke and she is barely 80
years old. She lives at Deckers. Her
daughter, Bertha. married John Mldkiff
two years ago. and to them little daugh-

the child is but 10. The combined age OF
the father and mother is but one year

At the annual dinner of the Pine Tree
State club, at the Hotel Brunswick, Bos-
ton. Tuesday night, ID. G. Heath presid-
ing and ninety-fve members present, a
novelty was introduced In that the speak
ing and music were by telephones. Each
guest found beside his plate an ordinary
receiver, and the president had also a
transmitter. The first speaker introduced
was Senator Frye, of Maine, who was In
Washington. The senator congratulated
the club on the success of the expert
ment and sent greetings to those present.
Secretary Lorg, also in Washington, was
the next speaker, who extended thanks
for the honor conferred upon him, and
praised the enterprise of the club and the
telephone company. Every word was
heard distinctly. Then connection was
made with the Grand hotel at Milwaukee,
and for five minutes the guests listened
to a cornet solo with orchestral accom-
paniment, every motto of which was clear
ly heard.
