In New York foreign languages have
been stricken from the curriculum of the
elementary schools, unless the pupil shall
demand such instruction In the last year
of his her attendance IL would have
been better 20 make the exclusion COM
plete. The elementary schools should be
confined TO the teaching of the elementary
branches of education. Now the schools
teach smattering Of many things and
neglect the teaching of rudimental knowl-
edge. a scholar may graduate from the
high schools with a most imperfect knowl-
edge of matters he would be expected to
have at his finger ends I'm the conduct OF
any ordinary business Even the study
of foreign language should be based on
an accurate understanding of the English
used in our common speech.

In conspicuous place in Central Park
is soon to be erected a monument 70 "Phil-

relief the busts OF the Baron and Baroness
De Hirsh, in whose honor the memorial
is to be raised. Men of all creeds will
unite in giving to the city this tribute TO
the two eminent philanthropists, from
whose estates have been dispensed for
charitable objects more than 500. 600 900.

Their Duty to God.
PHILADELPHIA Record.

The color question was serious enough
while IL was only political. Now a clergy
man in Atlanta threatens to make IL more
1avoring the controversy with the "odum
theologicum." He says the Southern white
people believe that absolute supremacy
of the white people is a duty they owe 10
God" 1t isn't so many years since they be-
lieved the ownership of the negroes was a
duty they owed 10 God IL would be a
good deal better to keep the religious ele-
ment out of politics.

words Of the man in the cast. Let US
