BAR BAREFOOT BOY
Children Are Taught Shoes Are
Essential and Poor Parents
Are Dismayed.

New York, May 17.-Shall children be
required to remain away from school
during the warm weather because they
have no shoes9 This question has been
agitating the mothers of the East Side
since the beginning Of spring. Scores
Of them are too poor to buy shoes for
their children and on account of, the
prejudice against the bare foot Of a
boy or girl, the education Of the chill
dren.; often has been neglected. Today
no principal is ready to invoke bless
ing upon the heads of barefoot boys, as
did the poet years ago.
In cur class, said Miss Crane of pub
lie school No. %, children are taught
it is proper to wear shoes and stockings.
The board of education does not require
it, but it is generally understood that
shoes are as essential as any other cloth
ing. No child would ever think of doing
such a thing as coming to school with
out them. If one should do: SO, I don T
know what measures would be taken. q
81 never made inquiry whether wear
ing shoes was compulsory said one
East Side mother, but my children say
that, unless they have shoes they will
be sent. home. When they have none
they will stay home. The idea is out
rageous. Poor people cannot afford shoes
in warm weather. - ,a.', ~

POET KISSES THE
STAMFORD GOODS
Joaquin Miller, the songster of
the Sierras, Gives Girls Initia-
ton Into New Ceremony. 4

Stanford University, Cal, May IL
Joaquin Miller, poet Of the Sierras and
other things too numerous to mention,
has startled Stanford with an innova-
ton in the etiquette of introduction.
According to the rugged singer of field
and forest, the proper method of meet
ing a miss is to fix her with basilisk
eye, dart violently forward, seize her
firmly by her lily-white hand and kiss
her passionately in the open palm
thereof. The osculatory introduction
will hardly become popular at Stanford.
The first demonstration in this new
social convention took place at recent
meeting Of the English club at which
Joaquin Miller was the guest of honor
and the honored guest. !, He had been
enlightening the fair co-eds, who gather
to woo the muse, with some of the finer
points of Education in China,'' but
the assembled damsels found the pic
turesque pioneer much more interesting
than the oriental administration of the
three Rs ~
The forty minutes of Education in
Chlna' was decently buried with polite
applause and a twitter of anticipation
followed at the possibility of meeting
one so far removed from earthly
thoughts and so wrapped about with
the fire Of inspiration. Mme Vice
President approached the poet and in
her wake was a bevy of Stanford Is

SULTAN OF Morocco y
DECORATED" BY KAISER

Tangier, May 17-During the audi.
.ence Of the sultan Of Morocco at Fee,
Count Won Tattenbach-A shoid, the head
of the German mission to Fee, read an
address expressing Emperor William 8
thanks for the warn, reception, given
him at Tangier thru the sultan's rela-
tives. The count further referred to
the emperor s visit as a proof Of the
strong friendship Of the emperor for
Morocco.
The emperor, said the count, wishes
to maintain the relations with Morocco
guaranteed by solemn treaties and de-
velop them in the interest of both coun-
tries.
The count then handed the sultan on
behalf of the emperor the grand cross
Of the Red Eagle order, with chain and
diamonds, expressing the hope for a
long and independent rule by the sultan
over the state. ..;.. Z 4.
The sultan was visibly delighted and
expressed warmly his thanks for the
hearty welcome to Fee.

Friend and Foe at Agreement.

When questioned as to the workings OF
the No-License regime all parties agreed
in saying that 1t was working admirably
Congressman Haskins declared that Brat
tleboro was the freest from drunkenness
since he came to town in 1868. Col.
Haskins also said that, during the old
prohibition days, he had always, when in
the legislature, voted for the strengthen
ing Of the prohibitory law, but he believed
that the present NO-License regime pro-
duced better results than even the old
law. Col. II. Z. Taylor the veteran in
surance man, came into the Coloners
Office and corroborated this statement
He favored the referendum but declared
that No-License gave a cleaner town than
he had seen before for 40 years In his
opinion Brattleboro had had enough OF
the open saloon. Editor Crane OF the Re-
former knew of no Illegal selling now,
said that there was manifestly less in
toXication than during the previous two
years. This is valuable testimony as Mr.
Crane favored license in Brattleboro
In all of the inquiries made of prominent
men OF all professions and occupations
and Of various different attitudes toward
the existing license law there was unani-
nous opinion that the present No-License
regime was working admirably, and that
there was every reason to expect its con-
tinuance. The general opinion seems
voiced in the statement OF Attorney Gen.
eral Fits who told the writer that Brat
tleboro is in the No-License column fol

In FAVOR Of Breeding Laraer Moraans.

One Of the most enthusiastic meetings
ever held by the Vermont Morgan Horse
Breeders association closed late Friday
afternoon at Middlebury. 1t was attended
by nearly 40 of the representative Morgan
breeders Of Vermont. Joseph Battell,
register of the association, spoke of high
strains Of blood and paid a high compli-
ment to the Black Hawk family. He
referred to the splendid type Of Morgans
that resulted from the efforts of Mr.. Smith
of Fashion Stud farm fame in Trenton,
n. ]. E. d. Kinds of Pittsford. Mr..
Walker of Whiting, Cassius Peck and DR..
Rich Of Burlington, N. w. Fiske OF Isle
La Motto each spoke Of the types Of the
equine desired by Vermonters and agreed
that q horse a trifle heavier and taller
than the original Morgan was the type
to be sought and perpetuated. The new
breeding establishment at the state ex-
pertinent station will consist at present
of one stallion and several mares and
possibly arrangements will be made on
a cooperative basis whereby mares ap-
proved by those in charge of the breeding
station may be bred to the government
stallion.

The Han Has Not Been Told.

But the cold figures of the justice court
do not tell half the story. They do not
bring to light the habits formed, the
morals ruined, the homes blighted, and
the prospects destroyed by the two years
of open saloons. 1t will be remembered
that one Of the hotels was charged by
Attorney General Fits with getting young
men Of Brattleboro drunk at their bars
and of then keeping them in rooms over
night, again and again, in order to keep
the fact Of their condition from their
parents and friends-the very thing which
1t was said licensed place would not do.
This charge was substantiated by the
registry books Of the hotel in question
though the proprietor attempted to palli-
ate his guilt by lessening the number OF
offenses. A livery stable employee told
the writer last winter that almost every
night teams were employed to carry home
goodly number of the patrons OF the
saloons of the place. and testimony from
multitude of sources oorroborated the
belief that the experiment OF the open
saloon had been nothing but a curse to the
place. The result OF the two years OF free
rum was a revulsion of sentiment that
has made Brattleboro stronger than ever
for temperance and sobriety.
