Primary Education in France.

According to report made to the State
Department by Consul Brunot at St
Etienne, all children in France are Obliged
to attend school until they have reached the
age of thirteen years or have received
certificate showing that they have passed
a certain examination. The state primary
schools are of three kinds: The maternal
(for children of both sexes between the ages
of and 6, which are under female teach
ers the children passing medical inspec-
ton twice a week.: the infant school, to
which children between 4 and are admit
ted and the primary. in which the sexes are
separated. Children who have reached the
apprenticeship age, or who are employed
on farms may be excused from attendance
upon all classes. Children taught at home
are liable at the end of every two years to
be called upon to pass an examination in
the subjects taught in the public schools,
corresponding to their age; if the examina-
ton does not give satisfactory results. the
children are placed forthwith in n public
or private school. The total number of
primary schools in 1897 was s., ,465.

USE OF SUGAR AS FOOD.
It's Nutritive Value Discussed by the
Department of Agriculture.

The results of an exhaustive investigation
of the use of sugar food are given in
bulletin soon to be issued by the Depart
ment of Agriculture. The bulletin attrib-
utes the great popularity OF sugar to its
pleasant flavor, together with what is now
known of its nutritive value. 1t draws the
conclusion that people eat much sugar
as they can get and the consumption of
sugar in different countries is, in general,
proportional to their wealth. 49,
The English-speaking people are said to
be the largest sugar users. England con-
sumed in 1885 eighty-siX pounds per capita
and the United States sixty-four pounds,
although still larger amounts are said TO be
consumed in sugar-growing districts. large
ly in the form of ripe cane. Between .000,-
90 and S,OO0,O00 tons are used annually in
the different countries of the world.
Discussing the practical food values the
bulletin stamps mealy boiled potato
lump of laundry starch as, in fact, very
near akin to a lump of sugar. The con-
cluSionS summed up are:
THE unwholesomeness of sweetened
foods and their utilization by the system Is
largely a question of quantity and concen-
tration. In the American cuisine sugar is
used with too many kinds of food, with a
consequent loss in variety and piquancy of
flavor in the different dishes. The nutty
flavor of grains and the natural taste Of
mild fruits is concealed by the addition of
large quantities of sugar. In the diet of
the under-nourished. larger amounts of
sugar doubtless would help to full nutri-
ton, and in the food of the well-to-do
starch often is not diminished in proportion
as sugar is diminished. Sugar while a use
ful and valuable food, is a concentrated
one, and, therefore, should be eaten in
moderate quantities, and is best fitted for
assimilation by the body when supplied
with other materials which dilute II or give
II the necessary bulk. Persons of active
habit and good digestion will add sugar TO
their food almost at pleasure without in
convenience, while those of sedeutary life
should use very moderately. Four or five
ounces of sugar per day is as much as il is
well for the average adult to eat under or
QinarV conditions

A HIGH-PRICED FISH.
Caught I'm Park Lake by a Chicago
Editor.
From Youths Companion.

1outn Companion.
At a certain season of the year-usually
about the LIST of Octobcr-it is the custom
of the commissioners who have charge of
the great parks in Chicago 10 permit fish
ing in the artificial lakes at certain hours
in the morning, the fishermen i'm all cases
being required TO use boats that are kent
for hire. This is to prevent the banks from
being thronSed with gangs ef hoodlums.
Early one October morning the editor of
one OF the great Chicago dailies appeared
ar a West Side park with a friend both
equipped with fishing outfits of the most
approved pattern. They secured a boat,
any live minnows on hand.
The keeper of the boat house inspected his
bait bucket, and found just one diminu-
tive specimen, about an inch and A half in
length. He fished this out and handed Il
over Throwing him a silver half dollar
and telling him to keep the change the edi-
tor took this minnow, climbed into the boat
and rowed out to the middle OF the lake.
where he f1shed for half an hour without
result.
At the end of the time he hauled i'm his
line, looked carefully at the minnow, took
pencil and note book from his pocket did
little figuring and returned to the shore
What did you get?" he was asked when
he appeared at the Office later i'm the day

This, il is believed is the highest price
ever paid for live fish in Chicago.

WELCOMED THE AMERICANS.
Address to Gen. Miller From the In
hahitantS of NegFOs.

4 cabIegram from General Otis at Ma
Mia received IN Washington last night in
dicates the satisfactory reception accord
ed to the American troops which recently
landed at the Island of Negros. They
were sent there by General Miller at lloilo
in command of Colonel Smith, to take for
NAL possession for the United States
which he did without trouble. Prior to the
time the troops landed a commission from
the island visited General Otis and said
they were willing to surrender and asked
that he take the inhabitants under his pro-
lection
The -congratuiatory address to General
Miller embodied in General Otis dispatch
is particularly gratifying to the officials
OF the administration they believe the
attitude of the inhabitants of the Island
OF Negros is such that there will be no
trouble in dealing with them hereafter
General Otis dispatch is as follows:
Following from Iloilo 4th instant: Gov
ernment congress inhabitants of Negros TO
General Miller, noilo. We affectionadely
salute you and congratulate ourselves for
the happy arrival of Colonel Smith and
troops under his orders and beg you to
send this salute and congratulations to

the government of the United States In

A "Last Word"
To the Editor of The Evening Star:


If an affirmative answer to the Straight
question propounded by Dr. Fiske in his
letter today concerning the conduct of our
''venerated ancest ors'' be my only claim of
right to remain in the open country. then. I
confess, the only course open to me is TO
accept the other alternative and take to
the woods" for those ancestors were NOT
the paragons of consistency which he would
force me to declare. However the idea
that the integrity of the doctrines of the
Declaration of Independence rested solely
upon the conduct Of those who espoused
them is, to say the least quite modern.
whether or not this idea is correct it is
certainly good one to live up to while
we are engaged in the propaganda of the
doctrine of the right of self-goyernment
1t is not unlikely that too much zeal has
been displayed in glorifying the mythical
virtues of ancestors and not enough has
been devoted TO the realization of the prn-
clpies-the fself-evident truths''-Which
they proclaimed. Herein Dr. Fiske has wit
ungly or unwittingly rendered a service by
setting forth ancestral Inconsistencies
Ihere is, OF course, wide gulf between
pIacuce and precept-a thought which the
doctor is more capable of celebrating than
laym/l-nevertheless the failure to live
up to the highest and truest maxins of
human society and government does not
furnish an excuse for qualifying OF ex-
planning away their meaning so as to es-
cape the obligation of conformity to them.
1 regret not to be able to crafty The
doctors request to illustrate how the gov
ernment of the universe derives its inst
powers from the consent of the governed
This little earth has quite enough of knotty
problems of its own.
AS last word, / wish to admit that the
doctors point about the Good Samaritan
would be well taken except for the fact that
his modern antitype is in danger of at
tempting to play the double role of robber
and benefactor. J. s. LOVE

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
You state in Mondays Star that the new
second lieutenants to be appointed in the
regular army are to be apportioned among
the states in proportion to population 1t
is to be sincerely hoped that the high Off
cials representing the several states will
not make family affair of this oppor-
tunity. 1t seems to me that young man
who was not patriotic and courageous
enough to volunteer in the time of war is
certainly not worthy of a commission in the
army in time of peace. The regular army
Is entitled to the best and bravest of our
young men, and the President should refuse
to appoint any one, however well recon-
mended, a second lieutenant who has
not proved himself possessed of the right
metal for a soldier during the past year, at
least to the extent of enlisting for the war
with Spain. The quarter of a million of
soldiers of the last war will surely resent
any action to the contrary. and in so doing
they will have the sympathy and support of
the ex-soldiers of the civil war.

ington Athletic Club last night, and the
athletes went out three times. This puts
the Saengers somewhat in the running for
the championship, and there will be q
pretty race between them and the Institute
players.
George Burdine was the star in last
nights playing and occupied the stages
center in every act. Bowling an average
of 1S7 and having but two breaks in the
three games, his work stands conspicu-
ously in a class by ITSELF as the same
record has not been made heretofore this
season. The Saengers played an excellent
team game. their total scores all being
creditable. The visiting club was decidedly
off. as an examination of the scores will
show But two individual scores above $50
were made, and Captain Kidd furnished the
surprise of the occasion by slumping to
no.
The home team had the opening game in
hand at every stage, taking the lead in the
opening frame and never being headed.
Burdine rolled without a break.
The score follows:
