THE NEW SCHOOL BOOKS.

At the request of THE HERALD County
Superintendent Plumb has furnished the
following information regarding the new
school books, over which the republican
papers are making such hugh and cry
at the behest of the American Book trust.
Mr.. Plumb as a member of the state
board Of education is qualified to speak
OH a subject with which he is acquaint-
ed. That the people of Yakima county
have confidence in him as a man and
able educator was shown by their notes
when after two years as school superin.
tendent be was the only one elected on
the democratic ticket for the ensuing two
years. Even that great republican tidal
wave of '9S could not shake him in the
confidence of the people of Yakima who
are interested in good schools. Now who
can say that his statement on the school
book question has not the ring of truth,
and who would not sooner believe it than
the statements made by the tools OF the
American book trust as represented by
Br!ber Edwards? Mr.. Plumb says:
1.-THE books recently adopted by the
state board are being very strongly criti-
cised and nearly all the criticisms are
hypercritical. II l were to give an opin-
ion upon them it would be this:
First, with the exception Of the geog.
raphy and speller, the books adopted are
equal to any submitted for adoption in
every particular.
Second, the geography contains some
errors due to hasty and careless proof
reading. Aside from that, it is an ex-
cellent book and is written upon lines of
the best modern educational thought. In
fact its method embodies the plan recon-
mended by the National Educational As
ISOLATION committee of twelve on that
subject The speller contains some typo
graphical errors; but it contains list of
excellently graded words, selected by
teacher of long experience and is the
result of his years of practical work in
from the work of the pupil are carefully
classified by grades and are particularly
we'll suited to the needs of the pupil into
whose hands the book is to be placed.
Third. The errors in both the foregoing
bcoho W III pC COtJOCbSQ III VIC ucAb Cui-
ton making them in every way equal 10
any books published on the same sub
jects.
Fourth. The speller, with all its i'm
Projections, is an infinitely better book
than the one in use during the past five
years which has practically gone out of
use on account of absolute uselessness.
The arithmetic in use during the past
five years, and by-the-way both of these
books were purchased of the school book
trust by the McGraw administration,
was poorly adapted to grades, ambiguous
in statement, and its first edition full of
imperfect problems; but no storm of in
dignation was raised over the matter nor
would there be in this case were there
not disgrunted, defeated contestants and
INSCRIPTIONS politicians behind the
movement. The motive, however, is so
plain that believe no fair minded per-
son will be deceived by the false state
ments contained in the republican daily
press.'

ENOUHH.

The attempt of a queer minister in
Topeka to run a daily newspaper for a
week in the way he imagines Jesus
would have run it has resulted just as
sensible people supposed it would The
minister hasn't made newspaper that
would be read when it had ceased to
be novel, and he has done some things
that many people with just as good
guessing power as his think Jesus
wouldn't have done. If the whole
miserable business isn't actually BIAS
phemous it is near enough to it, and
there ought to be no more of 1t any
where. Newspapers can't be improved
by such an example as the Topeka pa
per has been this week, and the rever-
ence of people for that which is high
and holy can't be increased by such
grotesque antics as those the Rev. Mr.
Sheldon has performed in the sacred
name of Jesus.

A POPULAR NOTION ASSAILED.

| There is a pretty general notion that
| lnguists, but Herman Rosenthal says
they are not. Mr.. Rosenthal is an
author and translator, Is librarian of
the Russian department of the New
York public library and he knows some
thing about Russia and Russians. In
the course of an article in the New Cy-
Gle Mr.. Rosenthal attacks the popular
idea about the linguistic talent of the
Russians He thinks it remarkable that
this idea should have obtained, since 1t
is well known that out of one hundred
and twenty-eight millions of inhabitants
one hundred millions of Russians can
scarcely read and write. He says the
idea originated when the Russian no.
bility and officials spent their money
only too freely. Not only the mobiles,
but the common landowners. who lived
on the income from the labor of their
serfs, had the privilege of spending
their fortunes in foreign countries, the
same as some of the American barons
are now beginning to do, and We're flat
tered by the greedy hotel-keepers on
account of their extravaganza" Since
the serfs were freed the landlords
have been obliged to labor like ordinary
human beings. Mr. Rosenthal says he
finds the percentage Of linguists in Ger
many, Switzerland, and even in the
United States, is greater to-day than in
Russia. He asks who translates all the
French, German, Spanish, italian, Pol
ish and Russian novels for American
readers, and who writes the reviews on
foreign books for the many good papers
and periodicals? He says: II happen to
know many of Them they are spread
all over the eastern States, and are to
be found even in the South. 1 have
also met many American travellers in
Europe and in the far East who could
very well in German, French
and Spanish"
If Mr.. Rosenthal isn't flattering the
United States his words are cheering.
And come to think of it, there is no
good reason why people Of this country
should not be as good linguists as there
are. .....

We are accustomed to think that Chi

winter eighty-six skating ponds, Great
ed by filling vacant lots in various parts
of the city 1t need not be said that the
ponds were thoroughly enjoyed by the
children and also occasionally by their
elders. What is more to the point ie
the testimony of physicians that the
health of the children was materially
to take exercise in the open air. The
authorities are happy over their idea,
and their purpose is to improve upon it
next winter They will provide more
skating parks, will light them whera
that is practicable and will put their
care and maintenance In the hands of
the Police and Fire departments. For
all this the only expense to the city
will be the trfling cost of the water and
the light.
A government that looks after the
welfare of the children like that has it's
good points. They do say that life and
property are not very safe in Chicago,
but perhaps the humanity that takes
care of the children will soon make the
city better all around. 1t certainly wont
make it worse.

The new corset is a little like what
was worn a short time ago. Time was
when the corset mounted straight up
from the waist till it suddenly cupped.
Now it swells gradually from the waist
to the middle line of the bust. Women
seem to have spread to fill such corsets,
for nipped figures are not so often seen
as formerly. Dresses, too, now fit in an
even slant from waist to buet line.
Once this cloth drawn from the edge of
the bust to the belt passed over hol-

and the line Is solid one. Corsets are
made more softly boned below the waist
but very long, and all the lacing Is done
below the waist. Much more lacing can
be done with comfort If the lower rits
are left free, and the waist looks much
smaller when the figure is well laced be-

Weary Adam and Fair Eve,

And gazed with dancing eyes,
And those who hurried past her
Could hear her my -oh-mys."
There was the hat she wanted
dainty thing to see
The price was thirty dollars,
Her breast was full of glee.
The price was thirty dollars,
Z She didn't care for that
She knew her style of beauty
Demanded such hat;
She stood before mirror,
The hat was on her head;
Her heart was full of gladness:
Just charge it, please" she SAID
His brow was deeply wrinkled,
HIS tired eyes were red
A thousand kinds Of figures
Kept dancing through his head;
He footed up long columns,
He hurried here and there;
He schemed and toiled and worried,
And saw things in the air.
His clothes are getting seedy,
His luncheon cost Il dime;
1mpOrtunate collectors
Pursued him all the time
He fondly called her Baby"
And bore his woes alone,
And she, somehow, was weary
OF being Just his own
