THE SCHOOL PROBLEM.

BY request We publish on another
page an article written from medical
standpoint as to our public schools.
We believe the structures made therein
apply with much greater force to the
schools OF large cities than towns OF
the size of Denison. We are certain of
one thing, and that is if the course OF
study was confined to the three Rs.
the children themselves would rebel on
account of the lack OF variety.
There must be a happy medium
between over croading aud starving
the brain with useless rtiterations.
There will always be more OF less
trouble with our public school system
because all children cannot be fitted to
one mould We know that teachers
are always on their guard to try to
guage children correctly but some mis-
takes will be made and we can easily
eheve that in the crowded city schools
these mistakes would be numerous.
Athletics should receive more attention
in orr scools. \ city OF the size of
Denison should employ at least one
teacher for this purpose and every one
Of the little folks should be given suit
able gymnasium work for at least a
half hour every day. We would like
to see system tried where one teacher
would have simply the direction of the
study hours while others fitted for their
special work should have the teaching
of the classes. Few teachers are able
to give their attention to the recitation
of class and keep control Of a roomful
of other children at the same time. If
| Denison had special teachers of mathe
MATES, drawing, reading and the com
mon school branches the work would
be more uniform and teacher who
gave attention to discipline solely and
superintended the study hour could
we'll care for large number of pupils.
In this way we do not believe the teach
ing force would materially increased.
No school-man will object to the people
thinking and talking along the lines of
school work so long as the discussion is
carried on without unfairness and with
the intent to help rather than to destroy.
Manual training should be made more
of feature of school work While it
is true that any American born boy may
be President, the chances are decidedly
against him. 1t is better to train boys
to be good accountants, mechanics and
workmen and to make them competent
for the positions they will probably fill
rather than TO strive after impossibilities
If Il boy has the stuff il him to become
a great man he will overcome all the
difficulties in his path. We think the
Denison schools are we'll managed, tina
the course OF study is good one bu
there is probably as much room for i'm
: provment in this line as in others

THE OMAHA LOAN AND TRUST
COMPANY is INVOLVED IN
DIFFICULTIES
EASTERN CREDITORS ANXIOUS
President Wyman Asserts Solvency
of the Company Depends Very
Largely on Value of
Property
MAY OWE HALF A MILLION

OMAHA, Neb., Dec. THE directors
Of the Omaha Loan and Trust company
are in session tonight with Edward Bet
tie, of Philadelphia, who represents the
Eastern creditors of the institution.
A. u. Wyman, president of the COM
pany, was asked this afternoon as to
the condition of the company's affairs.
He said:
IF real estate values were such that
we could realize from property what t
represents to us there would be no ques-
tion about tn solvency of the company.
The condition of the company is as un-
certain as real estate values on outlying
property have been for the past few
years.
The Omaha Loan and trust company
was organized in 1885 with capital
stock of $50O,OO0 which was fully paid UP.
Mr.. Wyman said it's business had been
that of making loans on city property
and farm lands and in the sixteen years
it had been in business it had placed be-
tween $12,000,0O0 and s15000,000 in real
estate mortgages. In the majority of
cases it had made it's own loans and then
sold many mortgages to Eastern in
vestors. These loans have all been made
in Nebraska with the exception of many
Missouri farm loans.
AS to the nature of the company's liza
bilities Mr.. Wynan said he was unable
to speak with certainty, but would
probably make statement later. He
said that some time ago it owed S650,000
on its debenture bonds, but he thought
that amount had been somewhat reduced.
The guarantees of the company on Sc
curities it had handled and of interest
payments had, he said, also involved it
to some extent. A large amount of their
mortgages were put up some time ago
to protect the debentures.
The directors of the trust company are
A. U. Wyman, Guy c. Barton, E. w.
Nash, ]. H. Millard, w. w. Wallace, r.
M. Morsman and George B. Lake. Mr..
Wyman is president and his son, w. 7.
Wyman, is secretary and treasurer.

LACKING IN ZEAL AND MONEY
HIT AT DR.. SHELDON JACKSON

ROCHESTER, N. Y, Dec. q = The
Episcopal missionary conference came to
an end tonight.
The conference, in the opinion of those
who are closest in touch with it. has
brought out distinctly the following
things:
First-The Episcopal church has pre-
eminent call to mission work in Latin
American lands.
Second-It sadly needs young men for
its mission work, both at home and
abroad.
Third-Its supply of funds for prosecut-
ing it's present mission work and for en-
tering upon it's large opportunities is ut
terly inadequate.
Fourth-The laity and even some of the
bishops and clergy are responsible for
the apathy which prevails throughout
the church toward missions.
Fifth-The church at large needs re-
vival, fresh baptism of the Holy Spirit
and systematic instruction in order that
zeal for mission work may be aroused,
stimulated and sustained.
SiXth-The men of the church should
be Systematically organized for the pur-
pose OF coming to the aid Of the mis-
sionary cause and sharing the burdens
which have so long rested upon the Wom-
en- and children.
There has been no effort 10 minimize
or gloss over these difficulties and faults
in the conference.
The Rt. Rev. Peter Tribe Rowe, D. D.,
bishop of Alaska. said to a representa-
tive of the Associated Press:
1--WE sadly need money for hospitals,
for schools and for native helpers. We
are the only denomination in Alaska who
train the natives to help us in our mis-
sion work. They are content to work
for $10) year, which we pay them in
food. We have three hospitals in Alaska.
They are alleviating untold misery. but
we want to build more, especially at
Nome. The others are at Rampant. Cir
Gle City and Skagway. Our native schools
could be planted everywhere, but we
have not the money to plant them. DR..
Sheldon Jackson, the commissioner Of
schools for Alaska, is a Presbyterian,
andhe has helped the schools of his own
denomination with government money,
but our schools receive not penny from
the government"

IN QUEST OF IDEAS
MANITOBA COMMISSION VISITS
STATE AGRICULTURE COLLEGE
AT ST. ANTHONY PARK
SYSTEM OF TEACHING GOOD

George II. Halse, II. C. Simpson, J. H
Irwin and J. I. Miller, of Winnipeg, are
in the city as representatives of the Mani
toba government, to visit the agricultural
school of st. Anthony park. The commits
sion was appointed to inspect several
agricultural colleges in the United States
and the one at Guelph, Ont, and to report
to the legislature course of study to be
adopted in the new agricultural school
which will be established by the govern
ment They spent yesterday at the expert
well pleased with the work that is being
done there and the methods upon which
the institution is conducted.
They visited the school at Fargo last
week, and will leave here Tuesday to in
spect the Iowa State college at Ames.
From there they will go to Illinois, Wis
consin and Michigan, and then will go to
Guelph. The tour will last the rest Of
the month when they will return to Win
nipeg to prepare their report. They ex-
pect to meet Hon. Thomas Greenway,
eX-premier of Manitoba, also a member
of the commission, and he will accom-
pany them on their tour.
Mr. Halse said to The Clio b last
evening that he was greatly pleased with
his visit to the Minnesota institution.
He thought the management had succeed
ed in solving the greatest problem that
the agricultural school has to contend
with, which is to take the boy from the
farm, give him an education and return
him to the farm. He said many schools
failed to return the boy to the farm after
he had received his education This is a
thing the Manitoba people want to avoid.
They want to give their boys practical
education in farming and then have them
return to use the education.
When asked what would probably be the
course of study recommended by the COM
mission, Mr. Halse said 1t viii strictly
be an agricultural course and that no
branches will be taught that are not vital
ly connected with farming In this way
he hopes to interest the students In the
work and remove the temptation to aban-
don it for some other calling
Mr.. Halse says it is not probable that
the school will be established in connec-
ton with the Canadian Government farm
another part of the province. The school
will have an experimental farm in con-
nection with it and will give a thorough
course in stock raising.
The commission hopes to have confer
ence tomorrow with Mr.. A. B. Stickney,
president of the Great Western, and will
listen to his views on diversified farming
after which it will leave for Ames, Iowa.

CURIOUS ABOUT TRUSTS
FRANCE WILL SEND A SAVANT TO
INVESTIGATE THEM
The Only Country Absolutely Pro-
hibiting Any Form of Trust
Wants to Know if Com
bines Help or Hurt.

PARIS, Dec IN Lazare Weller,
counselor of foreign commerce, who with
M. Maurice La Cotellerie, an engineer.
has been entrusted by the government
with the task of making a special investi-
cation of American trusts, told a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press today
that he will also make inquiries in aid
of the governments plans of organizing
an industrial college. He is a strong sup
porter of the project and of the foster
ing of closer commercial relations be-
tween the two countries. The govern
ment has examined the suggestion to
send commercial students also, but is in
disposed to adopt this step until the in
dustrial experiment shall nave been tried
M. Weiler's inquiry in the matter of
the trusts will occupy about four months
The government is anxious to have
competent opinion upon the effects of the
formation of big trusts and to what ex-
tent they count in the industrial progress
of the United States. This matter is of
peculiar interest to France which is the
only country enforcing the law, dating
back to the revolution, absolutely pro-
hibiting any form of trust.

SUN CIRCLE OF HEVELIUS.
CLEVELAND ASTRONOMER MAKES
REAIARkARLE OBSERVATION. =

CLEVELAND, Dec. IA remarka Bile
meteorological observation that undoubt-
edly will become historical in astronomy
was made here yesterday by Rev. Fred
erick Odenbach, S. j.. professor of physics
In st. Ignatius college. The observation
was that of the great sun circle or halo
of Hevelius, which has only been OBJ
served three times before and probably
never so perfect.
Preceding period of low barometric
pressure, halos often are noticed about
the sun. The commonest of these halos
is one that appears at a distance off %
degrees from the sun. An outer halo, at
distance of 46 degrees is also occasion.
ally noted. But the great halo Of Hevel-
ius, at a distance Of 80 degrees, as OBJ
served by Prof 4Odenbach, is q great
rarity and hundreds of years may pass
before 1t is observed again. The inner
circle of % degrees was complete, por-
tions of the 46-degree circle were distinct
and the great circle Of Hevelius was
distinct for half of it's circumference
