The almost universal FEELING Of the
people Of Honolulu is that a mistake
has been made by Superintendent At
kinson in closing the night schools.
A very few have declared that night
schools should not be maintained for
she beneat Of adult orientals But In
this they are only begging the ques-
tion as the attendants az the night
schools were young men nom sixteen
80 twenty-one years Of age and not
sdults IN the legal neaning Of that
word. The question Is. Is Il right. Is
il honorable to close the night schools
becanse q majority Of the pupils are
Chinese and Japanese2 Is il right,
Is il honorable 70 shut these people
out Of the night schools when they

There are unfortunately a few ad-
dlepated individuals in the world who
think it is great fun to perpetrate a
practical joke upon some one. We
doubt IL there was ever a practical
joke perpetrated in the world that
did not result in serious consequences
sooner or later. Many of them result
in great damage and In some cases
in loss OF life. They are on par with
some OF the cruel and dastardly haz-
ing Of few years ago at Eastern
colleges which was finally suppressed
No good ever comes OF a practical
Joke and the man who joins in per-
petrating one must be lacking in the
essentials that so to make up true
manhood.

One of the Charleston papers says
that Republcanism Is dlscredlted in
South Csrolius, and that the Demo
oracy win continue to control the
state. This. II true. is worse for South
Carolina than Il is for the Republican
party. 1t is noticed that the Repub-
lican section Of the country is the
progressive and expansive section. A
little more Republicanlsm and 3 little
less Democracy in South Carolina
would raise the moral quarantine
from that state. South Carolina has
been making some advances in manu-
featuring and in general industrlalism
but It's advances would be much great
er II 1t had a little dash Of modern
politics.

PERPLExITiEs OF THE SUNDAY
SCHOOL.

The effect Of the higher criticism on
the Sunday school is a question that
has been largely overlooked in dis
cussions of Biblical Interpretation.
It seems to be largely admitted that
interest in the Sunday school is de-
elining, but no explanation is agreed
upon. The attendance depends upon
the wishes Of the parents and the in
terest of the scholar Both of these
factors are affected by the higher
criticism. While this influence alone
may not account for Sunday school
decay. It should be considered in this
connection.
A few years ago the great majority
OF church members accepted the Bible
as an infaIlible book. No orthodox
person thought of doubling the story
of Adam and Eve. The only question
was as to the location of the Garden
of Eden. Jonah and the whale were
believed in implicitly. Only avowed
infideis ventured to suggest that the
sun and moon did not stand still at
the command OF Joshua. The narra-
tive of the creation, of the speaking
ass of BALKAN, the salvation Of Noah
and the animals in the ark. the turn
ing Of Lots wife into pillar Of salt,
were taught in Sunday schools q gen.
Grafton ago by teachers who regard
ed them as accurate history-as much
to be believed as the record OF the
American revolution. These stories.
so out Of the ordinary, had an sbid-
ing interest for children. Their par
'ents regarded it as OF great impor-
lance that the Biblical narrative
should be familiar to them. All the
Influences were favorable to the Sun
day school
The higher criticism has changed
these conditions. whether its con-
illusions are correct or not is OF no
concern here The fact remains that
a large number Of church members
regard much Biblical history as leg
endary. and have given up belief in
miracles. They may look upon the
stories OF Genesis as the. attempt OF
certain late Hebrew writer's Co put
God into the traditions common to all
Oriental peoples. but they give no
more credehce 70 the story Of Bala-
ans ass than to the tale Of Cadmus
and the dragons teeth.
This state Of mind In the churches
is bound 10 have lss effect on the sun
day schools. For q time. at least.
probably che majority Of teachers win
continue to regard the Biblical nara
tive as historically correct Those
who do not are confronted with q seri-
Gus problem. They fear the child win

The wages for teachers in Reno
district this year will be less than
for day laborers. The salaries are
fixed by the Board of Education
are as follows For No. grades,
SEQ per month; No. certificate
$50 and No. $50 per month.
The levy is SO cents on the hundred
dollars valuation Of property for
Teachers Fund, and zs cents for
Building Fund. The president OF
the Board, Dr. J. f. Michael, of
Fellowsville, admits that the wages
arc too low for teachers but claims
that il is all they can pay according
to law, as they have the levy for
teachers fund as high as the law
will allow, but that they have so
many schools to keep up, over 90,
and require about 35 teachers, and
the taxable property Of the district
not being very heavy, does not
produce enough money 20 pay any
higher wages when divided out
among so many teachers. They
disannulcd one school this year
and Others hardly keep up the
proper per cent.

BLIND TOM STILL ALIVE.
August S, 1901.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, July Al
"Blind Tom" the famous negro,
whose equal as musical mimic
has never been seen, has come
before the public again. Today he
played at concert for poor chill
dren's relief fund at the Casino, in
this city, and his playing showed
that, in spite of his various terms
in the insane asylum, he had lost
none of his wonderful memory for
music, and his skill in repeating the
notes, in perfect harmony on the
piano.
"Blind Tom" has been reported
dead so often that nobody has kept
an exact account of the times.
twenty-five years ago, at least, he
was "dead," according to common
report, although it was after that
time that there was memorable
contest in the courts for the post of
guardian to him.
He was famous before the Civil
War and made thousands of dol
lars for his owner before President
Llncoln's proclamation made him
no longer piece of property.
Since then he has made thousands
of dollars for his managers. But in
the last twenty years it has been
found impossible to keep him on
the road. His feeble mind would
soon give completely away, and
several times he has been placed in
insane asylums. For the last few
years he has been living in the old
O'Rourke mansion, two miles back
of the highlands of Navesink, and,
to the public, has been "dead"
again.
Today's performance showed that
Blind Tom had lost none of his
phenomenal skill. He plays now
as well as he ever did. He can
still execute three airs simultane-
ously on the same instrument. He
plays second to any piece executed
by performer in the audience. He
can play with his back to the
piano, and without hesitation re-
peat any tune he may hear.

OUR NEW YORK LETTER
A Moist Mercury How the Mid-Sum-
mer World Ways In Gotham-The
Styles.

This is aptly termed by one OF
our big daily papers, an old-time
roaring hot summer. We could
stand the heat with more Christian.
like endurance, thank you, but for
the moist side of the Subject. Some
thing has evidently so dampened

a big, fair chap who carries around
nearly two hundred pounds of solid
seductive avoirdupois, told me he
did not mind the heat. He is a
lucky wight as well as weight, and
one can but envy his serenity.
The same old summer condition
prevails. Those tied for the most
part to the town, follow the same
beaten paths of daily toll and such
evening recreation as they can com
pass or figure round to. The roof
gardens have easily the right of
way, and trolley rides are counted
in as a mud and cooling form of
recreation. None but those with
long pocket-books are permitted a
wide range OF entertainment. We
have a downright sensation in the
declared lack of safety of the
Bridge. The engineer, Mr.. Gibbs,
who says that the famous structure
has been standing-and is now
staggering-under four hundred and
seventy seven tons of needless pres
sure created by an excess of tracks,
cables, wires, etc, has given the
travelling public something to think
about. l for one, would not walk
across it for any consideration. We
may be willing to die when it be-
comes necessary-but no short cut
to the "Other Side" for me, please.
Most everyone predicts that we
won't have rapid transit for the
next ten years. The way things
ere creeping now, it certainly looks
like it. q l think we all have we'll

most tyrannical temper, and one day in
O fit of passion he cut down with his
sword his steward, an old gentleman
named Johnson. The latter had given
no proyocation for the decd, and the
crime was an act Of brutality inexcusa-
bic save that the earl may not have
been well balanced mentally. lie was
brought to trial for killing Johnson
and demanded and received the priv.
lege OF being tried by his peers.
The house of lords was thronged dur.

to be conclusive. and Fcrrers was sen.
fenced TO be hanged ut Tyburn. Ap-
peals were made to the king for elem.
cncy, but In vain. Fcrrers met his fate
with considerable bravado. lie was
carefully attirod for tho occasion and
insisted on providing a silken cord for
the ceremony. To this whim the execu.
TONER agreed, and the earl was turned

Near Fort Sill, Oklahoma Terri
tory, a new city has sprung up as
if by magic.
A town of 10, 900 people to be
known as Lawton, has grown up
just outside the fort limits almost
within night.
Following the close of the land
lottery at Ell Reno, thousands of
home seekers who drew blanks
started for the three points picked
out by the federal government for
town sites in the new country,
namely Anadarko, Hobart and
l.awton. A majority of the people
favored Lawton, which is Is miles
inland, and thousands have been
camped in and about the proposed
town site awaiting the sale of lots
on August 8.
Already Lawton has 400 tempo
rary business houses, including a
grocery firm and a newspaper and
three streets laid out. A national
bank has been projected. Every
form Of gambling known on the
frontier is being run wide open,
side by side with fake shows Of
various descriptions TO add to
the piciuresqueness Of the scene,
a thousand Comanche Indians have
pitched their tents nearly in the
center Of the town.

a stranger was here last week
driving horse with one of the new
style bonnets on it.
The Washington Humane Society
has been advocating the bonneting
of draught horses, and has been so
far successful that most of the
horses used by large business firms
in that city are now going about
with bonnets on their heads. The
headgear in question is of straw,
shaped like farmers hat, with
two holes for the ears of the horse,
and a brim wide enough to shade
the eyes. 1t is tied neatly under
the throat and may or may not
have damp sponge in the crown
to keep the head of the animal cool.
The old fashioned fsrmer NAV be
inclined to laugh at this innovation,
and declare that when he has any
old hats to throw away he will put
them on his scarecrows, but after
all, it is cheaper to buy a ten-cent
straw hat than to risk losing the
horse through its becoming over
heated or from sun-stroke like the
mail carrier between Kingwood and
Brandonville recently. We note
from the papers that a good many
of these kind Of hats or bonnets
have been used this summer in the
cities, where it is so much harder
on the horses than in the country.

COUNTY INSTITUTES.
Teacher Troubles In Tucker and
Tyler.

Other counties have trouble over
where to hold the Teachers Insti-
tute as we'll as Preston and in some
of them they get up a very bitter
contest between rival towns. Over
in Tucker county recently they had
a lively row all in one town as to
which building the Institute should
be held in. Some wanted it held
in the NJ. L. Church and some in
the court house and the crowd
divided and some went to both
places, but the court house finally
won and the other crowd came over
to the Seat of Justice amid the
cheers of the victorious party. Over
in Tyler county the contest was
between Middlebourne, the county
seat, and Sistersville, the largest
and most important town in the
county, but the latter won and the
session was held there last week.
In report of it in the Wheeling
Intelligenccr we extract as follows /:
The Tyler county teachers insti-
tute in session this week at Sisters
vile, is drawing to a close, today
being the last day. The attendance
is not so large as in former years,
about 100 being enrolled. This is
accounted for from the fact that
there was contest between Sisters
vile and Middlebourne as 20 which
should have the institute. The
contest was so bitter that many of
those favoring Middlebourne atten-
ded institute in other counties
rather than come to Sistersville.
This week institutes are being
held in four counties, at Fayette-
vile for Fayette county, conducted
by George S. Laidley of the
Charleston Schools, and Josiah
Kelley. AT Moundsville, for
Marshall county, conducted by c.
II. Albert and ]. c. Hartzler, of
Pennsylvania. In Summers county
at Hinton, with Prof. ]. w. Neel,
as instructor, and at Elizabeth for
Writ county with Prof. S. B. Bond
as the instructor.
Next week but three counties
have institute, Hancock, at FAIR
view, with Prof. James M. Lee, of
Pittsburg, and Prof. ]. Nj. Skinner
of the West Liberty Normal School
as instructors. AT Clarksburg, for
Harrison county, with Prof. ]. c.
Hartzler and Roy Roger, of the
Huntington State Normal School,
as instructors. For Upshur, at
Buckhannon, with Prof. c. ]. c.
Bennett and Prof. l.. /. Friend, as
the instructors.
Week after next institute will be
held in five counties-Grant, Lewis,
Monongalia, Pocahontas and Web
ster.
