One Of the most popular of the young
professors in the male high school tells
an amusing little story on a small up-to-
date schoolgirl, says the Louisville Times.
She went to one of these district schools
over which a cousin of the professor pre-
sides. 1t is usual to have visitors call at
the building now and then, who ask the
scholars questions and see that everything
is in good shape. One day not so long
since a party of callers came in and re-
quested the pupils to write the answers to
several question: Tell what you know
about Admiral Dewey's great fight"
The children set to work figuring on
their answers, but the teacher noticed one
of the girls did not make a move to do so.
why don't you write your answer to
the question:" she demanded of the idle
pupil
'Taint no use was the slow response.
Il don't know nothing about it."
But" demonstrated the teacher, you
must try anyhow; you must not sit there
idle while the Others are doing the best
they can. See if you cannot think of some
thing, my dear"
No use,' protested the pupil. "All
know is that Dewey and Corbett fought,
and 1 don't know which whipped, and
don't care, either"
Such is fame, and the bold sailor who
sunk Montejos fleet must go promenading
down the halls of time with a pompadour-
ed ex-slugger for a partner.

REVISING THE BUDGET.

The action of the City Council In finding
out exactly what the city's income and
the appropriations are for the present year
with the view of keeping expenditures
within the revenues is to be highly COM
mended. 1t is folly of the worst kind to
work along on appropriations which con-
siderably exceed the city's income BY its
effort to find out exactly what the city's
financial condition is the Council has done
much to strengthen itself in the good will
of the public. If it discovers that revis-
ion of the budget is necessary, it will have
the approval of the people If it promptly
and courageously cuts the salary list and
the appropriations for the different depart
ments until the budget is brought well
within the city's income. And there ought
to be a margin for extraordinary expendi-
lures. AS we said some time ago, there are
likely 10 be unexpected demands on the
treasury in the fall of the year There are
such demands pretty nearly every fall.
1t takes a firm hand to keep down ex-
penditures to the limit required by the con-
dition of the treasury. If the Council should
appropriations. the city would become
hopelessly involved in debt in a very few
years What the people are hoping for is
a reduction of taxation, not a burden of
debt If the members of Council will look
at the amount that was required to run
the city fifteen years ago. and compare it
with the amount appropriated now for the
different departments, they will be sur
prised at the enormous increase there has
been in the cost of the municipal govern
ment. And the city does not appear 10 be
getting much more now than 1t did then.
There are some good financiers in the
Council-men who know how to manage
their own businesses economically and vet
successfully-and the people are expecting
that they viii have no hesitation in MAX
ing reduction in expenditures If reduc-
ton is found to be necessary AS a matter
of fact, the expenses of the city govern
ment have been permitted to reach their
present amount largely through the effort
to please faction leaders, who wanted to
be taken care of, or who had friends thew
wanted provided for. and to satisfy per-
sons who might be useful in future faction
contests. The time has come when the
city's expenditures should be brought TO A
strictly business basis. and the Council
appears to entertain that view of the sit
ration.

THE M.ENERY REsoLUTToN.

Senator McEnery of Louisiana does not
appear to feel that the Republicans are
not dealing fairly with him in falling to
pass his resolution indicating the policy
of the government in dealing with the Fill
pinos. It was the understanding that the
resolution would be passed If he voted for
the ratification of the treaty.
1t is said that the administration is
rather glad that opposition to the resolu-
ton has been made by Democratic sena-
tors. The President thinks it would be
a mistake to appear to make any conces-
sions TO the Fnipinos at this time. They
would be certain to misunderstood our pur-
pose and attribute our action to a desire
TO make peace. They would think we were
afraid of them. The President may be
right. Anyway. Senator McEnery thinks
there is force in that view. and hence is
not disposed to insist that his resolution
shall be pressed to a vote until more
favorable opportunity. There Is no doubt
that the resolution will be passed when
ever Senator McEnery calls for the full
fillment of his contract with Senator Aid
rich, the leader of the Republicans in the
Senate.
In the meantime the war against Aguin-
aldo is to be pushed with vigor. The Fill
pinos are to be taught that our authority is
to be respected. Gen. Otis has received
Instructions that he must make no terms
with the insurgents until they have con-
sented to surrender their arms uncond-
tionally. When Aguinaldo and those who
are acting with him acknowledge that
our government is supreme in the Philip
pines, our policy in respect to those is
lands will be made known. II is prob
able that 1t will not differ greatly from
our policy in respect to Cuba.
Our stay in the Philippines. however,
may be longer than in Cuba, because the
Cubans are much more nearly ready
for self-government than the Fill
pinos. 1t is probable that It will be a
number of years before either will be
qualified to take charge of their political
affairs. And 1t may turn out that we shall
manage so well for them that they will
not want us TO go when they are pre-
pared to take care of themselves. That
undoubtedly is the hope of many Ameri-
cans. 1t would be the best thing that
could happen to this country if the Fill
pinos should satisfactorily show to the
world their ability to govern themselves
at a very early day-before we have had
time to agree upon and put in force a col
onial system of government. We have our
hands full in looking after the affairs of
this side of the world without undertaking
to direct the affairs of the other side.

light. He is Johann the younger, son of
Edouard and nephew of Johann, and has
written an operetta THE Cat and the
Mouse" performed with great success at
the Theater an der Wien. He has got into

suppressed his musical aspirations and
compelled him to study law and enter
the government civil service.
Not long ago Secretary Long interest
ed himself in the case of a sailor who en-
tered the navy at the beginning Of the
war and now wanted his discharge. The
secretary asked several officials to make
out the necessary papers, but found that
the man could only be discharged for
cause. Finally the secretary said: We'll,
make out his discharge because it rained
yesterday" This appears to be a suffi-
cient reason, for the sailor is no longer in
the navy.
