play suggests that It IS one whose
plot deals with murder and deep-dyed
villainy. 1t Is. however. so designed that
none OF its features should shock the
most sensitive. and although strenuous
in its makeup it is said to abound in
comedy. The breaking Of a suspension

EYES ON AMERICAN SCHOOLS.
Glasgow Association Says Spare the
Rod in Discipline.

New York, Oct. 25.-A petition has
been received by the school authorities
OF Greater New York from the society
for the reform Of school discipline at
Glasgow, asking that the teachers here
spare the rod as an instrument of dis
cipline in the public schools.
Since the principals association Pc
titioned the board Of education in
June last to restore corporal punish
ment, the matter has been hanging by
a thread which the committee on ele-
mentary schools may cut at any time.
When the petition OF the principals
association was presented last June,
those who supported 1t declared that
there were some school children of such
disposition that they will respond to
no mode of discipline other than the
rod. It was stated that 234 out of 295
principals favored the repeal Of the ex-
listing anti-corporal punishment rule.
The petition Just received from Glas-
Cow says:
The board Of education has recently
issued declaration against the use
Of corporal punishment in the schools
of this country, based largely on the
evils arising out Of its use here as
compared with the evidence afforded
by the success Of American schools.
British educationists regard educa-
tional progress IN America with the
greatest interest and speculation, and

culosis, Mrs. Eta Anders-Willman,
wife of Frank l., Whitman, aged SO
years.
While the above announcement
comes as a severe shock to her many
friends, it has for some time been
known that Mrs, Whitman was in very
poor heath She has been failing for
a year and a half, but only for the
past few months has her condition
caused the family any uneasiness.
Since closing her studio this spring

seemed to have released her hold nm.
on her very active career as a musical
Instructor. She has since that time
gradually failed, until her spirit finally
passed away this morning.
Mrs Whitman was born at Thur
mont Maryland, SO years ago. After
90 ~
her marriage to Mr.. F. l.. Whitman she
came with him to Salem, Oregon
about lS years ago. Since re,iding
here the greater part of the time Mrs
Whitman has maintained a music stu.
do, and was recognized as one of the
most accomplished persons in her pro-
~fession in the West, having MANY
graduates OF exceptional ability.
Deceased leaves, besides her hus.
band, a son, Frank L. Willman. Jr.
aged IL years, and also her mother
Mrs. A. J. Anders, who has for wears
made her home with her. She a'so
leaves a sister, Mrs VIM. H. Biggs. Of
Baltimore, Md, and a brother DR. II
C. Anders, Of Washington. D. c.
In the death Of Mrs. Whitman Salem
loses one of her brightest stars. for
she was not only an accomplished
musician, familiar with all the classics
and their significance in the world Of
art, but she was everywhere recognized
as a most loveable woman, a charming
conversationalist, and a true friend
Nothing was too much to do for those
she loved, and her resources and en-.
ergies were freely shared when the
slightest wish of a friend or pupil
seemed to demand them.
The funeral will be held al the
Thursday morning at 10 o'clock
and the burial will take place at the
Lee Mission cemetery, adjoining the
city on the east.

Los Angeles, July 2O.-J. F, Cornell
ison for a number of years carried on
business in this city as a real estate
agent. Recently he left the city, but
his wife brings him into prominence
again by a suit just begun in the su.
perior court. Mrs. Annie E. Cornell
ison, before marriage, lived at Hiawa-
tina, Kas., where the parents of both,
as well as other relatives, lived. Early
in 1884 Cornelison left for Los Angeles
but before doing so became engaged
to the woman who later became his
wife. She was a widow at that time
with two children, but when Cornell
ison went away he persuaded ner to
leave her children with the home folks
and join him in Los Angeles. They
were married in this city on July IA,
1884.
Mrs. Cornelison says that on Janu.
airy l, 1885, yielding TO his solicita,

not support her, but promised that so

dispose of his business he would fol.
low her.

been granted a divorce on November
80, 1895, and that she had been vast.
ing postage stamps and her affection

President May Be Watching
Actions of the Big
Beef Trust

Oyster Bay, July 2O.-President
Roosevelt enjoyed a period of rest to-
day. No visitors were received at
Sycamore. 1t was denied on authority
today that the President has sent a
secret agent to Chicago for the pur-
pose of investigating the beef strike.
Secretary Loeb said the department
of commerce always sends men to the
scenes Of strikes whenever they oc.
cur, and, Of course, has its agents IN
Chicago. Should the beef strike as.
sumo such proportions that any great
number of people are distressed, and
should it become evident that the con.
tending factions in the quarrel cannot
reach an agreement, it is more than
probable that the President will take
such action as he did a year ago in the
coal strike.
