problems with (which they deal are so
complex, the conditions differing so
greatly in different places or in differ

changing SO rapidly besides, that it is
extremely difficult for any member to
understand even the immediate needs

circle, and often the immediate inter-

different branches or localities seem to
conflict gravely. II we then go on to

enormously to these difficulties.

fact, but it is none the less true. Nor are
parents to be blamed. Where have they
been able TO find anything suggestive upon
these subjects? No matter how earnestly
they may have desired light. il was not to
be had for the seeking. 1t is hoped that
excellent books upon this subject of the
training of children may multiply, so that
earnest parents may have no trouble In
learning the IDEAS of those who have given
much thought to this all-important problem.
While the majority of parents are really
deeply interested in the proper training of
their children, some argue that the training
of children will take care of itself. They
urge that ii is natural function. and needs
no special preparation. Would such
father dare to take charge of locomotive?
Would he not almost ecertainly hurry to
destruction, not only himself but all those
whose lives depended upon him? Yet the

WILL Should such a parent then unhesitat-
ingly assume the management or the train
ing of a child made by, and in the image of
Almighty God and subject to the law which
He has ordained? Surely the training of
children is such difficult matter, that IL
amply justifies most serious thought and
study.
What a grand reward is sure to come to

it not worth all the pains and all the
trouble? The horse trainer does not re-

not parents be as much interested in the
proper training of their children? All would
be, if they could only appreciate how great
blessing every good child is to those whom
the child has to thank for life and all its
blessings. If parents could but family APP
precate these things, there would certainly
be far less OF that severity which comes
from impotence aud thoughtlessness, and
great deal more of careful study and pray
erful meditation upon this subject.

THE DRUM IN THE ORCHESTRA.
An Important and Indispensable Part
of the Combination.
New Orleans Times-Democrat.

New Orleans Times-Democrat
Few persons realize it, but the man who
beats the big drum i'm the orchestra is one
of the most important members of the
musical aggregation" said an attache of
one of the local theaters, land, as a matter
of fact, We could not get along without him
at this day and time. While the drum is
one of the most ancient of musical inst-u-
ments, being positively primitive. it is yet,
even in this advanced age, one of the most
useful. Men were beating on the tightly
stretched hides of wild animals, and get
ting a sort of music out of it, long before
they had learned how TO blow the simpler
melodies out of hollow reeds. The drum
idea came into existence before man ever
dreamed of footing horns. Humping on a
coon skin, or skin of some other kind,
was the only music of great many primi-
tive peoples, and even now this kind of
music is played while some of the island
tribes go through their ceremonial dances
But / was thinking of the great use to
which the drum is put nowadays i'm the
atricals. We could not get along without
it, and as result the drummer is paid a
salary next in amount to that of the leader.
He is well paid, and earns his money. You
have no doubt observed that in perform
ances of a certain kind the drummer is
stunt, of the kind we find in vaudeville,
comical stage falls, acrobatics. dances. any
kind of turn where there is a violent and
sudden change, and you will find that the
drummer will play an important part He
is the man who marks the time of the
change. He always hits the drum at the
right time. He is in perfect accord with
the performer 1t takes a man of some
talent to do this. You have no idea the
trouble we have in finding men who can do
this work as we would have it. 1t has de-
veloped into quite an art, this business of
tapping the drum at the right time, and
hence we experience some trouble in get
ting men to do the work just as we would
have it done. That's why we are forced to
pay the drummer good salary. He is an
important person in the orchestra, and
don't you make any mistake about it, And
may add that he knows it. The public
may overlook him, but you cannot say as
much of the theatrical managers, for he is
a man they have to reckon with"

Eighteen MEN DROWN.
Wreck Of Norwegian Bark Prince Ar
thur on Pacific Coast.

Wreck Of Norwegian Bark Prince Ar.
thur on Pacific Coast.
Port Townsend, Wash, Jan. T.
News OF the wreck OF the Norwegian
bark Prince Arthur, and the death by
drowning OF eighteen Of the crew was
received during the day. The Prince
Arthur was bound from Valparaiso for
British Columbia to load lumber. On
the night Of Jan the vessel ran into
breakers and was soon hard and fast
on the rocky shore. The scene of the
disaster is about two miles south OF
Ozette, on the Washington coast, ff-
teen miles from Cape Flattery. This
is precisely the position in which the
German bark Flotbek was rescued by
tugs in the winter of 1900. AS the
Umatilla light vessel lies about three
miles of shore from Ozette, it is be-
Heyed that the Prince Arthur mistook
the lightship for Tatoosh Island and
sailed eastward, believing she was
entering the Straits instead of running
blindly to her fate. OF the twenty
members of the Prince Arthur's crew
odly two were saved and they were
nearly exhausted when they were
washed ashore. The bodies of eighteen
drowned seamen are being buried by
ranchers and Indians living near the
scene, of the disaster as they come
ashore.
Although Ozette is but thirteen miles
from Neah Bay, news of the wreck
was received by way of East Clallam,
having been brought out by mail car
rier over twenty-five-mile trail. Ow-
ing to the inaccessible location OF
Ozette. only meagre details are OBJ
tainable
The Prince Arthur was an iron bark
of 1,5U9 tons built at Birkenhead in
1869. She was formerly called the
FioghtOn Head.
