Another Texas Storm.
Does Great Damage to Cot.
ton Crop.

Dallas. Tex. Sept 81 The storm
of last night over northern and north
western Texas was one of the most
disastrous rain and electrical storms
experienced 10 years. The damage is
heavy. but is confined largely to cottou
and railway interests. Farmers declare
that tho injury to the cotton crop will
reach 10 per cent. Trans OF nearly
every road 10 oorthern Texas are far
behind schedule time and sou,hbouod
trains on the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas Central roads are tied up for the
night OF Dallas.
The Trinity river near Dallas has
risen Dearly 80 feet since last uight and
overlooked its banks this afternoon.
The situation became so alarming that
about 3 O'Clock Sheriff Hughes scot
out mounted oouriers frcm this city to
uolify farmers and other residents
along the valley to move out. as they
otherwise would be likely to be caught
by q food during the oight. News
from the panhandle belt may add to
the seriousness Of the storm. Wire
communication is badly Interrupted.
Rain began falling late yesterday
afternoon and ended this morning at IL
O'Clock. During that interval the fall
was ii inches iu some places. The
rain was accompanied by wind which
unroofed houses aod beat trees to the
ground
At Fort Worth considerable loss was
sustained. The Trinity river left it's
bauks duriOg the night and the valley
as lar as the eye could see was vast
sheet of water. The river rose 21 feet
during the night. The city park there
was submerged to a depth OF iou, feet

Spanish ships in Manila Bay as
everybody has supposed. but that the

in order to prevent their capture by

Unless Lieut., Hobson repuda,es

The nations ideal of general educa-
ton for all her citizens is the only wise
course and sfe'guard. She can have
no other purpose without being false to
her highest self and interests. He who
would have an educated class of nobil-
ity and an ignorant class of "hewers of
wood and drawers OF waters" is an en-
envy and not a friend. The public
school system Of America stands for
certain fundamental principles In our
American civilization that can not easi
Iy be ignored. The humblest boy if he
but have pure purpose, clear-head
and determined will may find
through the school the highest place Of
trust aud honor in the gift of the
people.
SOME SCHOOL STATISTICS.
1t is estimated that there are about
81 500 900 children in the United States
between the ages of five and eighteen;
and of these more than 15. 900 900 are
enrolled In the common schools. This
is 70 per cent of the total of common
school age, as against 60. 6 per cent in
1890, 85.5 per cent in 1880, and 61.4 per
cent in 1870 This ia an encouraging
statement but it does not tell the whole
story. There is great difference between
the enrolled and actual membership.
Then In the Southern States the school
year means in too many cases only
from one to three months. There are
to dsy more than a million colored chill
dren of school age not attending school
at all for want Of accommodation. The,
number of children is Increasing more
rapidly than facilities for education.
We can hardly appreciate the sdvant'
ages of our Washington schools except
by contrast. OF the nearly so. 600 chill
dren to enter school tomorrow, about
1000 of them will be bone Of our bone
and flesh of our flesh. These children
are to be turned over to their teachers
to be instructed, Influenced and trained
for usefulness.
If the aim of education Is to produce
good men and women whose vision and
purpose of life make them act nobly
and show them, as some one has said,
how to rule and obey, then 1t will not
be out of place to discuss the essential
elements in that education. There are
at least three of these.
ELEMENTS OF EDUCATION.
1. The first element in the education
of a youth is suitable educators. That
means scholastic training, mental dis
cipline, sucb as diplomas indicate. We
sometimes speak of self made men but
in reality there are no such men. In
every thing we are dependent creatures
and in nothing more than for the KIND
of training that makes educators. ls
there any truth in the words "born
teacher?" To this I answer, No! and
Yesl No, If simply left to native aoii-
lty, Yes, if it meant that one Is porn
with teachers innate qualities. Tai
ent Is essential to the real teacner as
, IT, Ia bacause too
The colored American., 1900-09-22

our teachers cannot be found aud I be.
lieve Washington has had, and vet has
among its school trustees some of it's
most honored aud best citizens. Criu
clsm of public men and measures Is. If
wisely made. the safe guard of our in
stitutions. 1 think that no man in the
strict discharge of duty as he sees it,
fears what is said OF him. He will he
helped by proper criticism. aud can
easily stand that which is unjust. The
whole country is passing through It's
usual discussion of the schools and
much of it to public detriment. The
need Of the hour is more intelligent in.
terest on the part of the patrons. 1t
seems almost incre ditable that parents
turn their children into schools as
calves are turned into the pasture. Is
there not too little thoughtful planning
for the child's needs? Why not an ideal
unity IN this fundam entail trinity of the
public schools? Why should there be
elimination and recriminaticn without
cause? Will not the public, and es
pecially that part Of it represented by
this audience, show good judgment, q
right heart and exalted motives in the
attitude taken upon the questions af-
feeting the educational advantages of
our children. Itmust be apparent to the
thoughtful that by honorlng those per-
SONS OF our race, in public places where
honor Is due, we help the whole people.
1t is surprising that we are sometimes
so easily taken off our base and in the
smsllness of our vision eXpend our en-
ergy one upon another instead of against
a commo" svil. The far reaching in
fuence this unfortunate but con-
stant 5tice Is one Of our load stones
that sorely weight US. Far be it from
my thought to discourage proper criti-
cism. 1t must be for us as for all people
2 sure means, healthy stlmulous to be
and do the best possible. But there can
never possibly come any good from a
criticism that hiss it's foundation in
petty jealousies or uuholy rivalries,
when tempted by the evil one to con-
spire and throw mud, let this query
come what good or bad will result?
Will 1 help or hinder the cause of my
race and 80 that of common humanity?
There are at least some things that
we may do to make best our public
schools. We can have better knowl.
edge of the schools and Of our children
as related to them. A careful study of
the system will enable US to diecuss
with some intelligence the points of
strength and weakness and 80 make
our suggestions or criticism valuable.
We can by guarded tongue and
dsily direction help to make the teach.
ers work not only more pleasant but
far more efficient. Think of childhood,
sweet, innocent childhood with its
future destiny In the instruction Of it's
early years and declare this morning
that by the grace of God you will not
prove recresnt to the high trust COM
mitted to you and with Solomon say to
the youth of this generation "Under-
standing shall keep thee; to defend
thee from the way of the evil man."
Amen.
