The owners of the Trenton have been
advised that their liability for damages to
persons and property by the explosion on
the Trenton" is limited to the value Of
the boat after the explosion. The theory
on which this advice is based is evidently
that the owners of vessel are liable only
to the amount of the value of that vessel,
and that in establishing that value, allow
ance must be made for the parts destroyed.
1t is said that this rule was laid down by
a Federal Court in the case of person
injured in collision, and also in the case
of the loss of the French steamship La Bour-
goyne. The Wilmington Company will, Of
course, avail itself at this defense, and as
the hull of the Trenton is practically
valueless, the injured persons, and the
heirs of those killed will get nothing for
the damages sustained. TRUE American.

Speaking On the NSchool Question" in
the September number of The Ladies' Home
Journal the editor calls attention to some
of the mistaken ideas which great many
people get hold of in connection with the
responsibility of raising and educating
children. The first of these he refers to is
the prevailing desire of parents to have
their children excel in their studies This
is natural and laudable ambition, but,
unfortunately for the children, their natural
ability to learn as well as their health is
not always taken in consideration. There
is just little too much of the desire on the
part of parents that their children should
accomplish in one year what the average
child rarely can accomplish in two. This"
the editor of the Journal remarks lis fatal,
and has proved so in the case of scores of
children of which the writer has direct
knowledge. Parents seem to forget too
often, that child has neither the physical
strength nor the mental equipement that
they themselves have, and pressure is
brought to bear upon the child which he
cannot safely stand. Any parent who at
tempts to push a child in his studies be-
yOnd the average progress takes the life of
that child in his own hands,"
Then there is another point where thous-
ands of parents even, during the schooling
period of their children, which the editor
Of the Journal refers to as "the laxity
which they permit in evening social pleas
ures." A careful observer of American life
recently made the statement that more
children are seen at evening parties and
dances at hours when they should be in
bed than in any other country ON the globe
It's fact that the social liberties of the
American child are regarded by experienced
educators everywhere as one of the evils of
the country. 1t stands to reason that no
child can, with his or her uniformed strength,
burn the candle at both ends, and yet
parents continually permit the fragrant de-
parture from ordinary common sense.
LILO WhOiO induoCi, ulic OOutUut goes
on to say, finds its real root in the crimi-
nal indifference which SO many parents have
to the education of their children. There
is too much left to the teacher and to the
powers that instruct the teacher. Then If
our children break down in health, parents
rise up in righteous wrath and condemn the
teacher and the educational system. But
the real blame must, in hundreds of instan-
ces, come back to the parents. No one can
possibly know, or should know, the physi-
cal condition of a child so we'll as the
parent, and upon this point the entire ques-
tion rests. This is the fundamental basis.
1t is not what the parents would like the
child to know, but what the child can
stand; what is his physical strength; what
is his mental capacity. This is for the
parent to ascertain and determine; not for
the teacher. When that point is salts
factorily settled it rests with the parent to
make known the result of his or her investi-
cations to the teacher in charge of the
child, and the studies should be governed
accordingly"
