Cheating at School

There is a great fraud being perpe.
trated right in our midst, by which
honest persons are cheated out Of their
rights and honors, says the Louisville
Times Of a matter of interest every
where.
Reference is made to the school ex-
aminstions.
How many of the pupils can go be-
fore the teachers and answer review
questions without preparation? II
they cannot do that, what is the sense
in having these examinations, thereby
exciting the pupils into cheating?
The scholars are told upon what
day they will be examined in certain
subjects. They either "crsm" or take
unto themselves certain Jacks" to
help them out. The boys fasten their
Jacks" to the inside of the coat
sleeve by means of a rubber band, and
when the examiner passes that way
the bit Of card board with the notes
ON It disappears up the sleeve. Girls
hide theirs In tine bosom Of their shirt
waist, or in any safe and convenient
place about their person.
There is the honest pupil who can
answer sensibly any question upon the
subjects he has gone over; he passes,
perhaps, IN the examination, but not
with such high marks as the fraud.
There is cheating even in the daily
lessons. Instead of having recita.
tion bench, the pupils are permitted
to sit at their desks and recite. They
either read their lessons from their
books or from copies
1t rests mainly with parents to sup
press this fraud. They should instill
into the minds Of their children that
it is better to get poor report and be
brilliant, than to get brilliant re-
port and be poor in intellect.
II scholars were called to class and
examined in their studies without be-
ing forewarned, there would be more
studying and less, if any, cheating.
There is still another evil in our
midst, and that is in the preparation of
the young minds for the higher
grades. There are some teachers in
the primary schools who win their pu-
pills by gentleness, firmness and kind
ness. The pupils of such teachers
learn rapidly and pass to higher grades
on their merits. But there are other
teachers Just take stroll INFO some
OF the ward schools while school is in
session. Pause for few moments in
the hall and You will hear one of the
teachers screeching in loud, angry
tones at her pupils. Perhaps she will
infliot corporal punishment, which Gre
ates desire for revenge in the breast
of the child No one has the right to
strike a child put the parents.
The following remark was made by
one of a crowd of boys who were
Swapping" experiences of school life.
Said the boy: ~ used to get a beat
ing every day because didn't know
my lessons, but pshaw, it is oinch
now can cheat like the devil, and
she don't know it. What's the use Of
getting licked every day when you
can keep from it,"
By the time that boy is ready for
the High school cheating will have be-
come an art with him.
Is there no way to suppress this
fraud so that the really studious pu-
nils NAV mass ON their merits?

PRESIDENT AND OARTooNIST.
President Roosevelrs failure to kill
bear on his recent hunting expedi-
tion into Mississippi continues to be q
matter for almost daily Jest at the
White House. Lest he forget bruins
discretion and complete triumph, a
diminutive major ursa has for some
time occupied g prominent place in
nearly every cartoon published by the
Washington Post. IL is q pitiable
little bear with big, innocent eyes,
which are cast furtively at the presi-
dent when he is the subject of the car
toon, and at other times bear whose
eyes seem filed with an unknown
fear.
This miserable cub has afforded the
president lots of fun and has also had
the effect Of cooling his ardor Tor the
chase. At one of the White House
receptions Mr.. Bergman, the cartoon
list, was present, aud as he passed
with others in front of the president
and the receiving party Mr.. Roosevelt
grasped him by the hand and person
ally introduced him 10 Mrs. Roosevelt
as 1.-THE bear man, acknowledging at
the same time the amusement which
the daily appearance of the bear had
caused him, following it with this
confession;
"You know" said he, "a feeling of
pity comes over me after have had
my laugh, and l don't believe could
find 1t in my heart ever to kill another

FAILURES IN WALL STREET.
Due to Present Period Of Excited
Stock Selma,

New York, July 25.-The announce
ment on the stock exchange late yes
terday of the suspension of the firms
of Talbot ]. Taylor & Company and
w. L. Stow G Company, was the Sc
quel to a period of excited selling OF
stocks and wide cuts in prices. which
has not been equalled before since the
present movement to liluldate set in.
There is nothing in either failure that
can be traced to business or industrial
conditions outside the exchange, the
case lying close to diagnosis of spec
ulative collapse. Both firms have been
largely concerned in speculative mar
ket pools, formed for the purpose of
taking on a line of stocks, sustaining
their price by supporting orders real
or manipulative and seeking TO realize
profits by selling out to outsiders at
the high prices. Such operations
have suffered from increasing difficult
ties with the growth in the stringency
of money, the solicitude of bankers
over loans employed in such projects
and the jaded appetite Of the public
for securities. The operations of the
firm of w. l.. Stowe & Co. were on a
large scale in Mexican Central. and
The difficulties which have accumu-
lated upon them are understood by
the price of ii touched by Mexican
Central under the forced selling yes
terday and the high level at 31h last
year.
The failure of Talbot ]. Taylor G.
Co wiz inevitably be connected with
