GOOD GIRLS AND BAD.

So bad as IA bad girl How to make
IA good glrI out of a bad girl is IA prob
lem la sociology that has never been
solved, says the Philadelphia Times,
Every "house Of refuge" "Magdalen
society" and door of hope has its
tradition of some hayward creature
who, under its benign influences, re-
peuted and reformed, and is now n
happy and honored wife and mother
in some far distant state. But these
are the rare exceptions, and indeed
Il is a fortunate door of hope OF Mag
daIen home which has more than
one such case to recount to visitors,
and the great problem Of how to
transform a bad girl into Il good girl
Is as far from u general solution as
ever.
Mrs. Eyler attempted to do it by
starvation dungeon, solitude, beating
with fists, straps and shoe heels and
choking, but she failed dismally UNI
less indeed we apply Phil Sheridan's
definition of Indians. II "A dead girl

W. must admit that Mrs. Eyler has
been credited with making a good
girl out of Susie Weisman who was
buried ut Paterson, the other day.
But in spite Of this one case, Mrs,
Eyler's plan must be set down as Il
failure.
A system radically different from
that of Mrs Eyler has been in opera
ton at the Iowa industrial school
for girls in the beautiful little town
.of Mitchellville, near Des Moines,
but with apparently no betterresuIts,

Oshkosh Times; During the past
few years che students at Madison
have established most unenyiahle
record for rowdyism. Their mis-
deeds have ranged from mobbing a
theatrical company to individual
acts of violence. But, according to
the Associated Press, all records of
student cscapades in Madison were
ectpsrd Monday night If a gang
of hoboes or tramps had done what
the students %; the University of
Wisconsin did Monday night, the
warehouse and stonepile would be
their portion.

STRONG PROTEST MADE.

Proposed Policy branded ~ . Revival Of
Spanish Customs.
SANTIAGO. Jan. 5.-A mass meeting
was was held in the plaza, attended by
5000 persons, and energetic speeches
were made against the policy of central
izing money at Havana.
Most Of the speakers declared that the
principle which it was now proposed to
put into effect again had been fought
against by them for 80 years. All were
exceedingly eulogistic in their refer
ences TO General Wood. imploring him
to use his influence with the Washing
ton government against a revival Of one
of the worst features Of the Spanish
regime.
General Wood expresses the emphatic
opinion that all customs receipts should
be expended in the respective provinces
in which they are taken with the ex-
ception of such a percentage for Havana
as may be necessary for governmental
expenditures. geological surveys and
other features Of public business Of that
chacter.

Cuban Commander Wants His Men Fully
Paid.
HAVANA, Jan. 5.-General Maxine
Gomez. from his camp 200 miles west
ward, has issued a proclamation to the
Cuban army advising against disband-
Ing until the proceedings at Washington
regarding the pay Of the insurgent
troops have been completed. 1t is dated
Dec. 70 and is. in part. a. follows:
1.-THE Americans. tacitly our allies,
have terminated the war with Spain
and signed a treaty Of peace. The
period Of transition is terminated. the
army Of the enemy is abandoning the
country and the sovereignty Of the
great United States is beginning. But
Cuba il
Not Yet Free or Independent.
Self government is not yet constituted.
For that reason We must dedicate our
selves to bringing about the disappear
auce of the cause for American inter
vention. But, above everything else IN
the spirit Of justice to the Cuban army,
It is necessary that before the hbcrators
Of the people can dissolve, a. . guaran'
tee Of order, that the debt which the
country owes to its soldiers Is satisfied
Awaiting these results l remain in m!
present position, always ready TO hell
the Cubans finish the work to which
have dedicated my life."

points. The chief assets Of the company are the
Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light stock and
the Cincinnati Edison Electric stock. 1t is under
