TOYS AS AID TO CRUELTY.
Woman Tells How First Play
things Foster WarIike Ideas.

"The earliest toys given children
generate in them a spirit Of cruelty"
was the statement made in q paper by
Mrs. Theodore Thomas of Chicago
which was read by Mrs. Anna Harris
of Boston before the receDE convention
Of the American Humane association
at the ST. Louis worlds fair, says a
special dispatch to the Chicago Trib-
une.
Children are trained in the arts of
cruelty" declared the writer. Their
earliest toys generate in them this spir-
it. One of the first playthings given
a boy is whip, and as he rides his
play horse his mother urges him to
whip the bad horse A little later the
boy is presented with set of tin sol
diers, and with these he plays at the
cruel arts of war. Then when the lad
goes out of doors he receives a pop
gun, with which he amuses himself
killing birds and other innocent crea-
lures. With the use of these toys the
infliction of cruelty becomes pleas
ure.
Children are not by nature cruel,
but it is easy to make them SO by Civ
ing them toys which are to be employ
ed in the killing or the hurting Of in
nocent creatures. There is nothing bet
ter fitted for the wholesome develop
ment of the better traits in the charac-
ter of a child than care for the pro-
lection of animals and the study Of
nature. Children are not brought up
to use their brains and their hands.
Another objection to the education
of children is that they are given more
liberties than at their youthful age
they know how to employ
'"The present general aim Of educa-
ton is to make instruction interesting
The teachers do the work, and the
children are relieved of the effort of
learning. The children are trained to
enjoy themselves, and they learn to
shiEk the drudgery of learning.
Children are given too much unem-
ployed time. They are not engaged on
healthful games. but outside school
hours they loiter around doorsteps
shooting birds and cats. A system Of
education should be devised which will
teach the children not only to better
employ their time, but to train them
to be kind to each other and to ami

NEW SHRIEVALTY ETIQUETTE IN TEXAS
The Code Compiled by Sheriff Boone Of Ell Paso When
the Gaming Houses Were Recently Closed
in That City.
in That City.

A moral wave has swept over all of
the principal cities of Texas in the last
few months, and as result gambling
is thing of the past in some of these
cities, It is in San Antonio and Ell
Paso, the two remaining wide open
towns of the state, that the full force
of this wave has been felt.
In Ell Paso the crusade against gam
bling was taken up by the moral and
religious element, and petitions to
close the gambling houses were pre-
scented to j. H. Boone, sheriff of Ell
Paso county, by delegation of promi-
nent citizens.
Sheriff Boone sent notice to each
game keeper, telling him that he must
go out of business on a certain day at
certain hour. He followed up these
individual notices with general proc
lamation, which was published in the
principal newspapers OF Ell Paso, as
follows:

you have commissions to carry them.

HIGHWAYMAN ATLEESBURG.
Albany Young Man Held Up
Near the Depot.

The Albany Herald says Mr.. Paul
Arthur of that city was held up by
two negro highwavman almost within
the limits of Leesourg few nights
ago and relieved of his spare change
and other articles of value.
Mr.. Arthur had been travelling
through the territory north and north
east of Albany for the local branch of
Swift & Co. He had visited Shellman
and other points during the day, and
in the afternoon came down as far as
Leegsburg. He visited the several Gus,
toners of his house in that little town,
and then had nothing to do but wait
, for the IL O'Clock Central train to take
him home.
Mr.. Arthur found it little tedious,
when he started in to kill several
hours time. 1t was early in the even
ing that he went for little stroll from
the depot, turning his steps southwark
along the main line of the Central
road.
He strolled along in an aimless sort
of way, looking forward with regret
to the long time intervening before
the time sc heduied for: the arrival OF
the down train. He walked about half
a mile from the depot, he thinks, but
was still in plain sight of the station
and the other buildings OF the town,
whose lights gllmmered che erfully.
Suddenly, Mr.. Arthur says, two fig
ures stepped from the side of the road
lust ahead of him onto the track. At
the same time the figures raised their
right arms and ordered Mr.. Arthur to
halt.
The highwaymen went through Mr..
Arthur's pockets, relieving him of
something like St. 90 in change, then
took his gold cuff buttons. They made
a careful examination of all his cloth
ing in the hope of finding something
else of value, and after finally satisfy
ing themselves that they had made a
complete job told their victim to
"move on"
The young man started back in the
direction of Leesburg, but was halted
and told that his business was in the
other direction. "And don't come
back, either" was the significant sug~
gestion of one of the highwaYmen.
Mr.. Arthur was unarmed and not in
a position to do otherwise than COM
ply as gracefully as possible with the
demands of the negroes. He walked
about six miles from Leesburg in the
direction of Albany, then secured
horse from farmer and came home.

CHOSEN r1ANAGlNG DIRECTOR OF
AMALGAMATED PROPERTIES.
TO SUCCEED MIR. VIM. SCALLON
Ben Thayer To Be Assistant Manager
The Appointment Takes
Immediate Effect.

Last Saturdays issue of the Butte
Inter Mountain, official organ of the
Amalgamated company in Butte, had
the following announcements:
John d. Ryan, president of the Daily
Bank & Trust company of this city,
| will be managing director of the Mon
| tana companies in which the Anal
gamated Copper company is interested.
The news was received in this city last
evening, and was contained in a
private dispatch from New York City.
Following this telegram came a
message from Mr.. Ryan, confirming
the news. This means that Mr.. Ryan
will be managing director of the mines
and all the properties operated by the
Amalgamated Copper company in this
state.
Leading up to Mr.. Ryan's elevation
to this position, it is understood that
he was yesterday elected a director of
the Anaconda Copper Co., and was
also placed on the directorate of the
Boston & Montana company and other
corporations connected with the Anal
ganated Copper company.
The news was not entirely unex-
pected among Mr.. Ryan's intimate
friends. He left for New York about
10 days ago, shortly after the de-
parture from Butte of Mr.. Ben Thayer,
who had been in Montana several
weeks as the representative of H. H.
Rogers, for the purpose of inspecting
the properties of the Amalgamated.
AT the time of Mr.. Ryan's departure
it was believed that the post might be
offered to him, and that this had some
thing to do with his trip East.
The news of Mr.. Ryan's appoint
ment will be pleasing intelligence to
his hundreds of friends in this state.
He is particularly we'll known and
popular in Butte, aud there are here
host of we'll wishers who are happy at
his appointment.

and is abundantly capable of ASSUME
