Property From Debt,


The Swedish Lutheran church. OF
this city will celebrate this evening at
their church. corner OF Third and
Church the Thirty-third anniversary of
their organization. The immediate oc-

RUSSIA AND WIRELESS NEWS

The signal achievement in news gath ering in the Russo-Japanese war has been the work of The London Times with it's dispatch boat equipped with wireless telegraphy. The correspondent of The Times has been able to get intelligence and to give 1t uneensored to the world and nearly all the authentic news received has been through this agency. Russia has now taken the remarkable step of warning all Powers that she will in the future treat as spies all news gatherers provided with a wireless telegraph outfit. This means A huge outcry, but we hardly think Russia is to blame. She Is confronted with an invention. the possibilities of which were undreamed of at The Hague Peace Con- ference, and she must govern her conduct by facts, not sentimental theories in be- han of the press or of science. Core, spondents- on land are more and more strictly regulated and restricted in their movements, and in sending dispatches. It Is agreed on all hands that war on land cannot be eonducted without so hamper ing the newspaper men. It seems the rule would apply with precisely equal force to men on boats voyaging around the posts of naval activity, ready to send to the world at large and the other com batants as well. intelligence that might any moment thwart the best conceived plan of campaign. Russia will not shoot a great many spies operating the wire less system. but she has probably shown by her announcement to the Powers that in the future all communications with the outside world respecting events within the zone of war must and ought to be first passed upon as to their propriety by the military authorities of the country con. cerned

Noteworthy Platform.

New York Times.
 Such an Opposition is offered by the Albany platform, and, as the candidate is likely to be taken from this State, that platform becomes interesting and signif- cant as foreshadowing the declarations of the National Convention. It Is espe- cially noteworthy for what it does not contain, for its treatment of certain once-vexed Issues as settled and no long CT demanding any statement from the party. This is particularly true of the currency question. The will of the peo- pie as overwhelmingly declared in two successive Presidential elections in re- gard to this question has been enacted into legislation; the gold standard has been finally adopted; the principle that every dollar issued by the government shall be maintained at par with every other dollar and all at par with the best has been incorporated in law, and ample means have been provided to establish and secure the perpetuation of that principle The Democrats of New York accept the fact. as the Democrats of the Union must If the party is to gain the confidence of the people.
 The issue of so-called imperialism is treated in the same practical spirit. The sessions of the United States Is an ac- complished fact. So far as it was possi- ble to contest 1t in a National election it was contested in 1900, and was settled It cannot now be disturbed. Opinions may differ as to the details or even the general direction of the administration of these possessions, but what difference there Is exists among members of each party; 1t is not a sign or an element of party differentiation. The matter Is not and can not be made national issue. It can play no important part in national contest.
 With these confusing and irrelevant questions out of the way the positive Is. sues of the hour are open for discussion and action. and on these the Albany platform points toward a vigorous cam an none of the chances of honorable vic tory.

BANKHEAD ON ROBSON.
Alabama Congressman Tells How
 HAro Won the Ladfea

 Washington Special to New York Times
 A towering basket of flowers stood to- day upon the desk of Representative John H. Bankhead, who has just re- turned from Alabama with Cautain Hob sons scalp tucked In his belt, The pub lished stories about the extraordinary speaking campaign which the rivals con- ducted had excited much interest. and Captain Bankhead was oveFrun with in- quiries as well as congratulations.
 He did not want to say much about 1t until the official count was in, although Hobson has admitted defeat. But when he did advert to the hard run the Mer- rimac hero gave him 1t was with a grim smile.
 ''It was a remarkable campaign" he said. We had audiences wherever we went The halls were not large enough to hold half the people who came to hear A very large proportion of them were women and children. Little tots not more than so high (holding out his hand about four feet from the foorl were yell ing Hobson.'''
 Then good many of them came to hear Hobson rather than you?'
 MT. Bankhead smiled grimly again. Well said hei the ladies exerted powerful influence in behalf of Hobson. If they were not able to make their hus- bands, brothers. and swethcarts vote for him. they were often able to make these voters stop talking for me"
 Hobson made more speeches than Bank head did and the old ex-Confederate was sometimes surprised by the young of- ficer's powers of endurance. When ask ed about it he gave that grim smile again and said:
 He sometimes spoke three times a day and two hours at a time. He is. of course, a well-educated man; he has taken lessons of elocutionists. and then he had experience in lecturing. He has some nice gestures, and he has some eloquent periods too ''

To Rovcott A Indce.

A boycotted judge is on exhibition in North Carolina. He is Judge J. B. Pee bles. who went to hold court in Robe soE County the other day and found nineteen cases on the trial docket, but not a lawyer in the court house. 1t appears that the entire bar of the coun- ty had agreed beforehand to consent to continua nee Of all cases on the ground of Judge Peebles' discourtesy to counsel and unfairness. He acquired unfortu- nate notoriety for these qualities in the trial of the Haywood murder case. Judge Peebles promises to punish the rebel licus lawyers for contempt, a promise which they are disposed to regard with levity. The case is novel, for though occasionally an individual lawyer will protest against the manner of a judge, and some times all the lawyers will be restive. open defiance of this sort is not apt to occur. The probability Is that, with this united bar against him, Judge Peebles will have to succumb.

POLITICAL POINTS

Tammany contingent to arrive yesterday. They came from Albany on the same train with William, F. Sheehan and James E. Gaffney. Messrs Cochran and Towns, were disposed to take cheerful view.
 We said nothing against anybody or that will leave lasting wound" said MT. Cochran. We made our fight upon the Judgment of what was the best course to pursue. and we did not attack any body. We took the ground that, as rep resentatives of the New York Democra- cy. we should not so to St. Louis asking the convention to name our man. but pre- serving the attitude that we wanted the best man named. Judge Parker may be that man in July, and if so, very well and good.
 T believe it was a good thing that we made our fight, and may be 1t was good thing that it resulted as 1t did. Anyway we did the only thing we could bo- lieving in the justice of the policy we followed"
 MT. Towne was disposed to think that the action of the convention rather ln- tured Judge Parker than otherwise. He was also disposed to think that the platform was a great disappointment and ignored many essential features.
 William F. Sheehan. who returned on the same train, was the happiest man who came down from Alahany. In . way he was the hero of the conevntion. It was he who patched up the peace. such as It was, by which Mir Ehret was named by Murphy as delegate-at-large instead of August Belmont.

BRIDAL, APRIL 2e, 1904.
ANOTHER ONE CONE.

Those of us who received our education in the olden time-or what we thought was an education. for at times we be- gin to doubt. having an eye to present methods whether we were educated at all However, that isn't the point, for whether VIC were educated or not we went t. school. some. That is. it was called a school. however much 1t differed from the present style, and we really thought VIC were going to school-really we seem to have lost the combination.
 To begin again, both the pupils and teachers of fifty years ago would have considered a school room only half fur nished if it lacked slates and slate pen ciIs We can remember when lead pencil was quite a valuable possession for a school boy. but as soon es one ad- vanced far enough to begin to addle hi5 head with figures he must have slate ana pencil, and the uses he put it to were as various as they were numerous. To draw what he considered a picture was one of the uses he put it to, and if he could get up something like car ricature of his teacher he thought him self little too smart for ordinary busi- ness. If he got a thrashing for the job he looked on it as a necessary part of his training.
 In our modern schools, at least in the cities. slates have been discarded long since. The complaint Is that the pupils rrsil l thus create a racket not to be borne in a modern school where silence is looked on as one of the main adjuncts of our educational system. Another objection to them is that the screaking of pencil on slate grates on the nerves of the teach ers Both these objections are not with out merit. for combination of boy, pen eli and slate can upset the nerves or any one whose anatomy carries such at- taehments. They do rattle and screak, for a fact And, too, there are those who think the time wasted In fact, the Inspector of Public Schools for Edtnburg, Scotland. declares that years are wasted at the outset in making the children scratch on slates-a relic of the stone age.G How lie makes out that more time is wasted scratching on slates than on a pad with lead pencil we do not know. though we believe that under mod ern educational methods less time is de- voted to making igures than was for raerly the case.
 Lately a much more serious charge is brought against slates than noise or wasted lime, for there seems little doubt that they are transmitters of disease. No one need be surprised at this who has paid any attention to the condition they are often found in. The English and Scottish authorities, as well as those Of oui own country, have made such inves- tigations and experiments as convince them that disease germs are caught, re- tained and transmitted by means of the foul slates so often found in school rooms. Even where sponges are used the evidence seemed conclusive that va rious diseases were spread where slates were used.
 And thus is to go another of the old time adjuncts of education. The slate goes with the switch and other old-fash- toned notions. Perhaps it is for the best. but there are yet to be found some who regret their absence.
