What the Novelist DID Fer Chila.
hooa-His Work For AA.cation.
Froebel and Dickens, it is claimed,
are the best interpreters of Christ's
ideals Of childhood. The philosophy Of
Froebel and the stories of Dickens are
In perfect harmony. The two great re-
formers protested vigorously against
the interference of intermeddling adults
with the full development of the indi-
viduslity Of the child. They recognized
the divinity in each child so fully that
they objected to all "stamping and
molding" processes by which its self
hood was dwarfed or warped. Other ed
ucators and reformers had considered
the problems Of human evolution from
the standpoint of the adult and had
asked, "What can we do to fit the child
for It's work." Froebel and Dickens
asked, "How can we help the child to
grow by its own self activity,' They
were the great apostles Of childhood.
They began the struggle for the free
dom Of childhood from the restrictive
interference Of adulthood.
Dickens is commonly regarded merely
as an educational critic. This is a mar
row and unfair view. He was q great
critic. He aroused the indignation of
the civilized world against those who
treated childhood inhumanly, and the
hatred Of adult tyranny which he swak-
ened developed a loving sympathy for
children. But he could not have 80
clearly exposed the wrong in education
without having definite conception of
the right. He was the greatest destruc-
tive educational critic. but he was also
q most advanced, positive. constructive
educator. There is no great ideal Of the
new education" which is not revealed
by Dickens in his novels or his miscel-
laneous writings.
Dickens was the first Englishman Of
note to advocate the kindergarten. In
July, 1866, he published an article of
II columns in Household Words, which
would take leading place II compared
with the papers read at a meeting Of
the International kindergarten union
today.-James L. Hughes in Century.

AMERICAN TROOPS UNDER GENERAL

Inferior In Number but Their Position
Was Very stronk-Our Losses Qaits
Heavy-Pr.ctically Two Huadred Killed
and Wounded During the Engagement.
Colonel Esbert ef the Tweaty-sseond
Infantry Included In the List.
MANILA, March 27.-The United
States troops under Brigadier General
Lloyd Wheaton captured the town Of
Malinta, beyond the Tulihan river,
after sharp fight. Colonel Harry c.
Egbert of the Twenty-second infantry
was killed., Prince Leowenstein, for
merly aide-de-camp on the statf Of Brig
adir Genszl Miller at Iloilo, somehow
got in frpat of the firing line and was
shot in the side, dying almost instantly.
The American casualties were much
tighter than those Of Saturday, the total
loss thus far reached since the engage
ment commenced being As killed and
las wounded.
General Wheaton entered Malinta,
which is small village Of huts, at
o'clock in the afternoon.
Gunboats shelling lIalabon.
The United States gunboat, Helena
and other gunboats have been shelling
Malabon, about q mile northwest of
Caloocan, for several hours.
The insurgents made fierce resist
ance to the American advance up the
railway at Mallnta.
Evidently anticipating an attack
1 900 insurgents vacated Malabon dur
ing the night and attempted to burn
the town. General Wheaton's brigade,
composed of the Second Oregon regi-
ment and the Twenty-second and
Twenty-third infantry, stretched out
along the railroad from Caloocan to the
Tulihan river, was powerless to prevent
the withdrawal on account of the nat
ural obstacles. A column of smoke
showed the enemy's intentions, soon
there were other columns at various
points and then flames There were
mills and houses burned at various
points.
Rebels Driven INLAND.
Many of the rebels sought refuge in
the suburbs of Navotas and Casig, or
were driven inland BY the shells of the
Helena, Callao, Ningdhapan and La
guna de Bay.
In the meantime General Wheaton's
brigade held the road to the river, but
was unable to either repair the bridge,
which had been destroyed by the
enemy, or to advance, owing to the op-
position and the hills on the other side.
The calculations of both General Hall
and General H. q. Otis, whose brigadea
constituted General MacArthurs divi-
sion, were much interfered with by the
character of the country in front Of
both, and the enemy was able to take
advantage Of this, 70 that the opera.
tions against Novaliohes and Polo were
delayed, though the right wing of the
division swung out, sweeping tho enemy
In northwesterly direction.

Third Artillery and Oregon Regiment
Lose Heavily.
MANILA, March 27.-At q. m. an ad-
vance was begun all along the lines
from San Juan de Monte to Caloocan.
The entire division under General Mac
Arthur was engaged in the movement,
the brigades being commanded by Gen.
erals Harrison G.. Otis, Hale, Hall and
Wheaton.
The Nebraska and Colorado volunteer
regiments encountered the first strong
resistance. This was ut San Francisco
del Monte and in the surrounding
trenches. The cavalry outfanked the
enemy, who broke and ran, suffering q
severe loss. But the enemy made q
stubborn stand in the woods north of
the Lalomac church.
Enomy Kept Up a Steady Fire.
The Twentieth Kansas and Tenth
Pennsylvania regiments, with the Mon
tana volunteers on the left, protected by
the Utah battery, advanced over the
open rice fields. The enemy, strongly
entrenched in the woods, kept up a
steady fire until the Americans were in
close quarters. Then the rebels fled
through the woods under raging fire.
General Hale's brigade was soon fol-
lowed by General Harrison G.. Otis
brigade. The insurgents opened fire on
our right. Our advance was over open
ground for mile and half. The
Third artillery, at the apex on which the
line was to turn, got the hardest fight
ing. It was in perfect hell during the
mile and half, and lost 8 per cent of
its men.
The Third artillery crossed the river
an hour and half before any of the
other troops. Later the Kansas volun-
teers came up on our left and crossed
the river under fire. They lost eight
men. They found 81 dead Filipinos on
the bank. The insurgents stopped firing
when our doctors went forward to get
the Filipino wounded.
