Twenty.Ave Suspicleus Cases Are Being Detained.
 New York, July 29.--With no less than twenty five cases of possible yell low fever detained under observation on the quarantine island. Dr. A. H. Doty, Health Oficer of the port, said tonigat that twenty-four hours must elapse before l; could be absolutely de- termined by bacteriological tests whether any suspects were infected with the dread plague.
 Two sailors. both apparently serious ly i'll, were taken today from the steamer Seguranca, which arrived from
 Colon. end isolated in the pest house at Swinburne Island Eight more of the crew who had been i'll on the voy- age, but were convalescent, and seven passengers, two from the cabins, all of whom showed increased tempera- lures, were taken to Hoffman Island for detention until the results of blood examinations are known. In addition
 to these. two suspects were taken to Hoffman Island today from the steamer Fl Dorado from New Orleans. and there remain on the island six cases from the steamer Avona, which recently arrived from Colon.
 All the suspects held yesterday from the steamer Alama from Galveston, Texas, were released today. None of the paIleutS now uuu6E u6ttutlOu iS regarded as being dangerously i'll. but there is apprehension that there may exist among them cases of an tnsfdi-
 ously dangerous form of yellow fever,
 the ambulant stage, in which the suf-
 ferer walks abroad. feeling only slight
 ly i'll, but imperiling all with whom he comes in contact.
 The health officials tonight are mak-
 ing the most thorough tests for this
 type of yellow fever among the mem-
 bers of the Segurancas crew. some of
 whom were let off at Colon actually
 suffering with yellow fever. Health
 Officer Doty believes that within twen-
 ty four hours his tests will show that
 the remaining sick from the Seguranca
 are merely suffering from an epidemic
 of low feveer. which Is quite comon on
 toard ships arriving in New York from the isthmus. The two worst cases,''
 he said. may possibly be yellow fever.
 but even this is not likely. Eight of
 the crew were about as sick five days
 ago as are the two we carried to the
 his: :oital today. These eight are now
 much improved. condition which
 would be unlikely If yellow fever had
 been theil ailment. There is good req
 son to believe, therefore. that the two
 other sick men, who became i'll only
 two or three days ago, have the same
 idly. I feel quite confident that the
 eight convalescents are not yellow fe-
 yer patieats but will make no defin-
 ite statements until the blood and other
 tests settle the matter conclusively.

 The present management has endeav- ored from in inception, to improve the condition of the convicts. and that the effort has been crowned with reason able success, is apparent to all the people in the State. The convicts are well fed well clothed. well housed and their health carefully looked after and treated humanely.

Is a faleshood too preposterous to merit refutation I am persuaded that other mining companies in this State are equal in regulations to those named

solved better than any other school the
correlation of the garden work with the
class room work. Much practical arith-
metic is derived from the operations that
go on in the garden. The produce is sold
by the class conducting the work. The
money is deposited in bank. Expenses con-
nected with the garden are paid by check.
Thus the boys learn banking methods first
hand. Business letters are written to seed
firms for catalogues and seeds. Drawing,
manual training, history, geography, SPELL
ing and reading are connected with the gar
den whenever possible, making school life
thoroughly practical work.

The point of view from which the work
in Washington has been approached is

class the grounds surrounding the schools
are disgraceful The new buildings are
reached through ungraded clay banks.
This condition usually exists for sew
eral years after the building has been
occupied 1t Is claimed that the apprOpria-
ton for buildings and grounds is sufficient
to barely keep up the necessary repairs
within the buildings. A school building
should be the attractive building of
neighborhood, an ideal toward which the
surrounding homes should endeavor to
reach. Instead, it is usually the most de-
serted, forlorn spot to be seen, so barren
is 1t that the few attempts to beautify
have been looked upon with scorn, and many
times destroyed by the very ones who would
benefit by the improvement. garden
that will improve the appearance of the
building is the only kind of garden at
tempted far by Washington teachers.
In order to arouse the civic pride of the
children, in order to teach them respect for
the property of others, the chilren have
done all of the work. They have brought
tools from home for the purpose. Some
times they have worked in school time,
more often after school and on Saturday.
Lawns have been made successfully by
them and much permanent planting in the
way of shrubbery has been set out. Space
is being reserved for seed planting every
spring and bulb planting in the fall, SO
that a steady interest may be retained in
the surroundings.

The experiment was started last fall by
putting in bulbs These have done fairly
well this spring except for vandals who
have removed many of them.
The Franklin, Force, Dennison, Harrison

had very pleasing gardens last year. Ma
terial to put into the gardens has been hard
TO secure. Private parties have donated
shrubbery, the Department of Agriculture
has given flower and lawn grass seed
shrubbery and vines; from a local seeds
man has come a generous donation of
bulbs and seeds; the normal school has
undertaken to be a source of supply for
geraniums, chrysanthemums. colens, YER
bena, etc, and the teachers have been lib
eral with their own money, as Washington
teachers always are, but still the demand
is far greater than the supply.
The Department of Agriculture is directly
responsible for the work in Washington
furnishing great opportunities to the
schools. The schools at the same time ap-
preciating these same advantages, are CO.
operating most heartily in the work. The
interest shown by Secretary Wilson, and
the most efficient chief of the bureau of
plant industry, DR.. B. I. Galloway, in the
teaching of elementary horticulture and
agriculture in the common schools is of
national Importance. The recognition of
the work by the government is putting the
work in other cities on a firm foundation
in short time. The Washington work is
being carefully watched by educators
throughout the country. The training of
teachers for the subject Is of vital i'm
portance. Applications are frequently made
TO the normal school to furnish teachers for
other places. but this has not been granted
except in the case of the National Junior
Republic.
a summary of the work is not necessary.
1t is evident that children are strongly in
fuenced by their school surroundings and
this influence is reflected in their homes.
Pride aroused in that which concerns so
many is commendable. A noted educator
has said: Not trees, shrubs, grasses and
herbs alone are what we offer the children
in the school garden, but the love OF nature,
labor and home"
