N0N-sEcTARLAN SCHOOLS.


State education, according to DR..
John Bridge, addressing Presbyterian
clergymen and laymen at ST. Paul,
is becoming more and more secular
and is to be distrusted, says the
Spokes Review. TheI clergyman
evidently takes exception to non
religious education in the public
schools, and deplores the fact that
religion is omitted from the currlcu-
lum. His address was before dele
gates representing the Presbyterians
of the United States and found
responsive chord in the breasts of
number of those present, for his
remarks were applauded.
One cannot believe that Presby-
terIans generally approve the position
taken by this man whose life work is
to educate children along religious
lines, and therefore IS biased in his
opinions. For years school boards
have been making endeavors to
eliminate denominational teaching
from the public schools. And to ac-
complish this end it has been neces-
sary to prohibit the reading of verses
from the bible and eliminate prayers.
The wisdom of this course is self
apparent. The Methodist teacher
unconsciously might attempt to in
huence the children of a Jew or a
Catholic. The Catholic or Jew
teacher might interpret certain pas
sages a long lines taught to them, and
the practice would be exceedingly
offensive to the parents of children
who are being reared in Protestant
faiths. Even congress has demanded
that the Indian schools be removed
from the influence of religious sects,
the last session witnessing heated
debates on this very subject.
Too many people cenfound de-
nominGtional religion with morality.
Morality is taught in the public
schools of the United States, by
precept and example. The child is
shown the evils of tobacco, of strong
drink, of profanity, of uncleanliness
In mind and body, every effort being
to induce physical and mental per-
fection- 1t has wisely been ordered
that the teaching of denomnat:onal
religion be left 70 the parents in
their homes and clergymen in their
churches and private schools. Col
leges for teaching UNCONVENTIONAL
religion abound and are literally en-
dowed by adherents in every state
and territory. Under this system
both public and private schools
flourish and one does not interfere
with another.
To adopt the ideas of DIR. Bridge
would throw TIE state schools into
turmoil. Every one of score or
more of religious sects would demand
that its Interpretation of christianity
be adopted in the public schools of
ITS locality, and local school boards
could be SO Influenced that religious
differences would be more common
in the schools than in churches.
Public schools are admirably equip
ped under present conditions for all
education which should be universal.
Presbyterlanism, Catholicism, Meth
odism and other faiths will con-

Growth in Popularity of Bowling
as a Winter Sport-COming Con-

Boxing and Other Sports.

Sam Karpf, of New York, secretary
of the American Bowling Congress, the
man who has done more than any
other to popularize the game. was in
the city yesterday, on his way to the
East. Karpf is manager of the
Greater New York team, of
Brooklyn, which has visited
Wheeling twice. He recently re-
ceiyed a challenge from Secretary VIM.
Fette, of the Wheeling league, ard
stopped here to see what could be done
toward arranging a match. The con-
ference failed, principally because of
the fact that Mr.. Karpf intends to take
but two men with him on his next trip
to the West.

WE'LL" he said. 1--WE have won nearly
all our contests because of the inabil-
ity to make up strong five men teams
in most of the cities. Every bowling
community has at least two good men,
however, and the games with our bowl
ers can be made very interesting. P.
Wolf will be M of the players, but the
other has not yet been selected. A
team of fourteen, such as we had be-
fore, is unwieldy and too expensive.

rules and regulation alleys. We have
succeeded in what we undertook"

A STATEMENT

From the Federation of Churches.
While it is true that a rad was made
Thursday night on the slot machides OF
this city, and in the Police Court, Fri
day morning, a fine was imposed upon
each of one hundred and seven operat-
ing such machines, it was not at the in
stance of the Federation Of Churches"
We do not believe in raising revenue
from crime or violations Of Jaw. Our
object is the suppression of vice. And
to this end we ask for the seizure and
entire removal Of these machines. At
the conclusion CT Police Court Friday
morning we asked the Mayor and Chief
of Police to make such seizure CT all
slot machines against which fines had
been imposed that morning. They re-
fused, giving as their reason that the
law providing fer such seizure is I'M
constitutional. When asked for their
authority, they said Judsc Jackson had
so decided. We made no answer at the
time, but were confident Judge Jack
son had no jurisdiction in the r.atter,
he being District Judge in the United
States Court. To satisfy ourselves,
however, we sent the following tele-
gram:
Wheeling, Dec. Is, '99.
HJudge j. j. Jackson, Parkersburg, w.
Va:
Have you ever decided it %unconsti-
tutional to seize and destroy any gam
bling devices whatsoever under the
State laws? If SO, what devices, what
law, and when decision rendered? An
swer Immediately.
(signed) ~. L. SOOY."
The following is his answer
"Parkersburg, w. Va, Dec. is, 1899.
REV. j. l.. Sooy, Wheeling:
mo such question as you referred to
was ever before me.
81. ]. JACKSON
The following is the city ordinance
under which We ask the Mayor and
Chief of Police to seize eud remove all
slot machines in the city:
1.-THE Mayor or any member of Coun-
Gil, or the Sergeant, or any of his dep
uties, may seize or direct TO lie seized,
any table, instrument, device or Thing
used for the purpose of gaming and the
property SO seized may he demolished
or destroyed under the direction of the
Mayor, in case the person or persons
in whose possession The same was
found was convicted of gaming."-
(Sec. so, under ~"Offenses.")
The following are the ordinances
covering the duty of the officials:
"The Mayor, Sergeant, members of
Council, and every member of tie po-
lice of the city, are hereby empowered
to arrest on view every person found
violating any provision In This ordi-
nance, and convey such offender or Of

4 CRISIS Is COMING
IN THE SLOT MACHINE AND GEN.
ERAL POLICE SITUATION IN
THIS CITY.
TIE FULL THURSDAY NIGHT
Followed BY a Visit of Ministers to
the Chief Of Police Yesterday and
Again Last Evening-A Demand
Thai Machines BE Destroyed-A
Telegram to Judge jackson and
h Answer-The Chief viii Allow
No Dictation.

There are indications that 4 crisis Is
approaching in general police circles,
growing out Of the actions of the Min
isterial Association in moving against
current violations of law. and about
the next movement made may possess
far greater interest than anything that
has heretofore transpired.
The details Of Thursday nights raid,
published i'll the Register yesterday
morning, were read with the greatest
interest by all classes. Coming so
quickly and Unexpectedly after the pub
lscation of the letters Of The minister's
and the Mayor and Chief. he arrests
caused an immense amount OF talk n
comment, and there WIS a fair diyis-
ion of sentiment as to whether the
action of the Association of Ministers
had forced the arrests, or whether 1t
was simply the act of the Chief. with
out regard to anything that had trans
pired. The prompt assessment OF fines
In Police Court did not in the least in
terfere with the operation of the ma
chimes during the day or last night, but
1t was noted that players were few AND
far between, and late last night fnere
were mysterious movements OF ma
c-ines in wagons.
Yesterday morning a delegation OF
ministers called upon Chief Clemans
at the City Hall and asked him to
repeat the raid last night, as they I'M
derstood the machines were still in OPP
Grafton, and looked upon the assess
ment of fines as a sort Of license upon
vice. The Chief asked for time to
consult his attorney, and requested the
delegation to call again later. The
Chief also said, in reply to a further
request, that he could not seize n de-
stroy gambling devices, giving as a
reason that Judge Jackson had decided
the law to be unconstitutional. Alter
their departure the ministers wired
Judge Jackson, and received a reply
that 10 such ruling or decision had
ever been made by him.
Last evening the ministers again
called upon the Chief and renewed their
request fer another rad last night, and
in reply the Chief said he would not
allow anyone to dictate the q o.
his office. To this the delegation re-
sponded that they had no wish to die
tate, but merely desired him, as an Off
cial, to faithfully discharge his public
duties. There was some further con-
versation, of an entirely friendly ma
ture, and yet there was every evidence
OF earnestness upon both sides a con-
dition which makes the next move OF
especial interest and importance
The entire matter was a leading topic
of conversation throughout the city,
Yesterday, and one result was a general
-1Makening to the situation. the facts
being in many cases very surprising to
a large proport on cf tie citizens. There
was also a large number of reports in
circulation, the nature of which may
tr~anspire rs events progress.

statement was handed in to the Regis
ter for publication:
