| Washington, Jan. l7.-President Schur
mans recent designation. before the 18th
Century CLUB OF New York, OF our educa-
tional system in the PHILIPPINES as fan
tastic. and his recommendation that the
American teachers should come home
adds interest TO the report Of DR.. Fred
". Atkinson, the General Superintendent
Of Education in the PHILIPPINES. in which
he reviews what mas been done by an
american school system planted there
Dr. Atkinson resigned his position on
January LIST and is now on his way home
The thirty-two months of his service,
because of the formative character OF
the work. can hardly be exceeded in i'm
potance by anything that comes after.
His report contains many interesting IL
cidents, which throw an effective side
light upon the nature OF the American
problem in the Orient.
Before the American occupat ton there
was plan OF education which. If car
ried out properly. would have been pro-
majority OF lower schools. The na-
tural tendency was to deny the
instruction. as ordered in the royal de-
cree OF December 30 1ss2. and also the
founding of higher schools for secondary
instruction. special schools. normal IN
situations and colleges. AS early as 1911.
twenty-five years before the beginning
OF harvard. the University Of Santa
Tomas was esta blished: other colleges
were likewise established long before
there was even q plan fer q general
system or primary and secondary instruc-
ton. With these higher institutions IN
existence so much earlier than the great
ma iority OF lower schools-tteir logical
impossible The natural tendency was 70
masses OF elementary education and
TO center efforts upon the few who
were hurried to the college or university.
The result OF this policy has been that a
few persons have stood out prominently
as educated Fslipinos. while the great
mass have either no, been educated at
all or only up TO the acquisition Of the
processes Of reading ard
writing
The early work Of the Jesuits in training
the Fflfpinos was along right lines and
would have been productive OF permanent

srpplanted by the local padres. under
whose direction TIE common branches

there should be one male and one female

Remarkable Luck.

the mining bosses Tole by name had
trouble with some Of the laborels in
his mine. One night three OF them at
tackled him in barroom. Two Of them
pinned him down, while third stood
over him with revolver. The muzzle
almost touched his stomach. Once.
twice, thrice. a fourth and fifth time
the weapon snapped. Tole closed his
eyes. Each moment he expected to be
his last. The disgusted ruffian threw
his disappointing weapon on the floor.
with an oath, and. joined by his aids,
left the place. Tole wiped the cold
sweat from his brow, mechanically
picked UP the discarded weapon, went
to the door and fired off every charge.
remarliing that it was just his luck.

Must Close at Midniaht.

Davenport, April g. Some Of the
Davenport saloonkespers who hava
been disregarding Mayor Becker's mid.
night closing order received something
of shock last evening when the pos
licemen on the various beats served
notices on them that ie they did not
close hereafter in conformity with. the
order they might look for trouble. The
OFFENDING saloonkeepers were told 3 In
detail, it is understood. that midnight
closing did not mean pulling down the
tlinds, locking the front door and leavs
ing rear door open. They were told
to close up tight or talse the conse-s
quences.
1t is learned from good authority that
these consequences. from the direction
of the mayor, may ineluse the revoca-
ton OF the license of tls saloonkeepef
who continues to abuse the privilege Of
keeping open until midnight. From
the letter published on behalf Of Bishop
Cosgrove,. by his secretary, in these col-
5umns recently, 1t Is easy to conceive,
that the results might be something
more than this. That the order has not
been strictly observed or strictly en-
forced OF late has been 4 matter Of gen-
eral knowledge, but It Is stated that 4
will be hereafter.

GYMNASIUM MEET.
Iowa College Represented at the Inter.
collegiate Contest.

Special to Times Republican.
Grinnell, April 2.-The Iowa College
gymnasium team left for Minneapolis
this morning, where the men will COM
pete in the western intercollegiate
gymnasium meet which will be held in
the Minneapolis armory. The team is
composed of the following men: G. L.
Parks, L r. Davis. j. G. Walleser and
Charles Burnside, captain. d. v. Mitch
ell. Instructor in physical culture In the
mems gymnasium, accompanied the
team. This team tied for second place
last year at Madison, Wis. The fol-
lowing schools and universities compose
the league: Chicago, University of
Wisconsin, Minnesota and Grinnell.
Last year Illinois and Belnit were in the
meet, but fell out probably because OF
the lack of teams. The Minnesota pa
pers seem to think that the contest lies
between Minnesota and Wisconsin.
The Grinnell team will give a good
showing of themselves, since they are
in better shape than at last years meet.

Yesterday afternoon. The men gave no
reason for thir action, other than they
understood that general reduction
in wages was contemplated. 1t was
runored among the employees that the
skilled men, who are receiving $2.25
{. day, would be reduced to $l.75 and
others in proportion. Manager Frank
Williams of the mill, positively refused
to discuss the matter. He would not
admit that any considerable number
of employees had quit their work. and
declined to say whether there was any
difference between the management
and the employees respecting wages.
Within the last ten days the entire fac
tory has been unionized, and the men
say that the management evidently
fears a strike, and has considered q
possible wage reduction with a view of
holding the men.
