Iowa's Infant Phenomenon.
0Chicago Times-Herald.)


Viola Rosalia Olerich is tine name of
the Nest remarkable child in the state
of Iowa, if mot in the world. She is
only years and l month old. Yet she
knows as much, in many ways, as a
girl of 90
When Viola wa1 l year IL months and
% days old she passed an examination
before two competent teachers. AT that
time the child knew nat less than 5000
subatantives. 1t is probable that the
vocabulary Of this baby was at that
time much larger than that of the or
binary man. Her father says that VIC
la knew more nouns than the average
adults knows words.
Records of the child s work were kept
by her parents, and are very interest
ing. There is first a scrapbook in which
are pasted the pictures of LOO objects.
Viola can tell the name of any of these
objects by looking at the picture. She
is also able to read short, simple SEN
fences.
These phenomenal accomplishments
are partly the result of a pet system
of education evolved by her father, who
until recently, was superintendent of
schools in Lake City.
Her educate has been conducted on
the sentence method or the syn
thetic rather than the analytical sys-
tenn of teaching. 1t rests ON three prin-
ciples, which her father describes as
follows:
l. To awaken a keen interest for ed
vocational work by the use of attractive
apparatus-playthin for the child
>. To treat the child at all times with
the greatest of kindness and equality
3. All the educational work of the
child SHOULD be an interesting game of
play-purely voluntary. No element of
coercion or even undue solicitation
should ever be resorted to.

Cuban Bandits Captured.

Santiago de Cuba, April 2.-The tele-
graph line to Havana constructed by
the United States signal corps is COM
pleted and will be opened for CONNER
cial messages tomorrow.
Five more bandits have been cap
tured, including Nainon, a noted des-
perado. A body of army men few
days ago attacked two Americans in
the neighoborhood of Holguin, took
their arms and horses and then went
still further north to rob the light
house at Gibara. Colonel Gruble of the
Second immunes has gone in pursuit.
The trouble seems to have grown out
of the cessation OF public works in the
province and the delay in the approval
of the estimates. Many who became
bandits during that period now refuse
to return to work.

WORK OF DEwEY's GUNS.
Percentage of Hits Larger Than at
Santiago.

Washington. April 2-Lieutenant
John NJ. Elliott, the intelligence officer
of the Baltimore, has forwarded to the
navy department, under date of Jan
], 1892 a report on the effects of the
gun fire of Dewey's feet upon the Span
ism war vessels in the battle of Manila
The report is based upon a personal ex-
animation of all vessels, personal con-
verSations with officers and personal eX-
tracts from Admiral Afontejo's official
report. 1t describes in detail the effect
Of every shot from the American fleet
and proves that Montejo's vessels were
riddled by a perfect storm of shot and
shell from the American guns There
was a much larger percentage of hits at
Manila than at Santiago. This is ac-
counted for by the fact that Deweys
fleet made a deliberate attack. with
most of the eneny's ships at rest, while
the appearance Of CerVera's fleet at
Santiago was unexpected and it was
running fight.
Lieutenant Eelliott makes the follow
ing summary Of the number and size
of the shots which struck each of the
Spanish vessels:
Cristina, five eight-inch. five five-inch
and thirteen other large shells. seven
six-pounders and nine other proiectiles
Castillo, two six-inch, twelve five
inch. four other large shells; three six
FOUNDERS and sixteen other small shells
Survivors also tell of three eight-inch
shells which burst on the orlop deck
forward. amidship and aft. causing
fires that could not be controlled.
Don Antonio de Ulloa, four eight-inch.
three six-inch, one five-inch and four
teen other large shells; ten six-pounders
and one other small shell.
Don Juan de Austria, two six-inch or
eight-inch, four five-inch; five six
Founders and two other small shells.
Isla de Luzon, three hits before she
retired behind the arsenal and was
sunk by her own crew.
Isla de Cuba, to which Montejo trans
ferred his flag after the Cristina was
abandoned. four siX-pounders and one
of unknown calibre. She, too, was sunk
by the Spaniards.
Marquis del Duero, one eight-inch,
one six-inch and three siX-pounders.
Velasco took no part in the action
but was hit by q. stray shell and was
sunk by the Spaniards. The Argos was
also out Of the fight, but was struck by
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1899-04-03

The following points in connection
with the examination of the Spanish
ships is emphasized by Lieutenant Ell
lott:
1. The sides of iron and steel built
cruisers do not arrest projectiles
enough to explode them.
2. The incendiary effect of bursting
eight-inch shells is great, and far
greater than would seem proportionate
to that of lower calibres.
3. At ranges over $500 yards the gun
shields of cruisers are in no sense a
protection, but insure the humiliation
of the guns crew and the disabling of
the gun if struck by a large projectile.
4. Warships of the present day will
generally be placed hors de combat by
conhagration and the destruction of
their personnel before they are sunk by
gun fire.

MIR. COEN'S LOAN.
Mysterious Syndicate With Twenty
Millions For Cubans.


Washington, April &C. NJ. Coen,
who. it is alleged, is engineering the
scheme for a $2O,OO0,OOO loan issue to
the Cuban assembly and is said to be
the author of the mysterious Dispatch
es, to the Cuban assembly urging that
bodv not to disband, on the ground OF
a good prospect of securing more than
the SO. 900, 900 offered by the United
States, is in Washington. Mr.. Coen
tonight was in conference with a Mr..
RosenfeId. He admitted that he was
the man who had been working on
the plan to establish a 100000 600 bond
issue, to be paid for out of the Cuban
revenues now collected by the United
States. He said he represented a syn
dictate with $2O.O00,00O capital, which in
tended to place the loan.

CHINESE. GRAVES DECORATED.
Ceremonies By the celestials at the
City Cemetery.

Until the middle of the afternoon
yesterday was typically stormy
spring day, but the snow and sleet did
not deter the Chinese contingent from
fulfilling the sacred duty of aDpro-
priateIy decorating the graves Of their
fellow countrymen in the southeastern
corner of the city cemetery. There are
not many mounds in the plot marking
the temporary resting place of deceased
Cinnamon, but the cold earth was
strewn with cut flowers and here and
there were planted a few hardy seeds
and plants that will grow and bloom,
even as they do in the land of Con-
fucius. The offerings were kissed by
the moisture from the frowning clouds
and famed by the chilling east wind.
Soon the warmth of the bright sun
shine smiled on the flowers. AS bits of
paper marked with Chinese characters
were strewn around. the heathens
wended their way homeward, all hop
ing, evidently, that when their remains
are consigned to mother earth until
such time as their bones are sacredly
returned to the land of their birth, the
living ones will make like pilgrimases
to their graves

HUNTINGToN'S VIEWS.
improvements Will Be Made On Cen
trail Pacific.

San Francisco, April &C. P. Hunt
ington, president of the Southern Pa
cific Railroad company, has arrived in
this city, and will occupy his mansion
on California street about May l. He
was accompanied by his wife. The
main object of Mr.. Huntington's visit
to the coast is to attend the annual
meeting and election of the Southern
Pacific. In an authorized interview he
said he hoped the reorganization of the
Central Pacific would have a beneficial
effect on California business. He
added:
LAS to rates and improvements of the
road, we expect that the facilities VIII
be somewhat improved, which will nat
orally accelerate the movements of
tonnage. But I do not know whether
the rates can be cut down. / had
strongly hoped that we could make ar
rangements with the government for
a long extension of the time of the re-
payment Of the money loaned to the
company"
The opposition met with in California,
Mr. Huntington stated, had prevented
this extension. He continued: LAS to
what we propose to effect by the pur-
chase or consolidation with the South
ern Pacific company of lines in Cali
fornia that are leased to the parent Or
ganization, 1 have to say that it is a
matter we have not yet fully decided
upon
He stated that the sale of Mrs. Stan
fords Central Pacific stock would
make no difference in the management
of the road. Work on the coast E@o
extension would be pushed he stated.
Being asked if he favored a compro-
mise with the state railroad commits
sion, he said:
"1'hat is a matter largely with our
legal department, though. as for myself,
/ shall oppose any compromise which
gives the right to any tribunal TO re-
duce the rates and fares, so long as
they are not above what will give a
fair return for the money invested in
creating these properties
