Why Our Schools Surpass the English.

Sir William Mather, member of the
English parliament and a manufactur-
ing baron, recently compared the edu
cational features of the two Anglo
Saxon countries in IL newspaper inter
view while on visit here. Noting the
greater progress here in Industrial and
educational affairs, he said;
Here you have what l must call a posi-
tive passion for education. American par
ents seem to encourage their children in
the ambition to get all possible good out
of your free educational institutions. The
result is your universal system of con-
secutive and coordinate education, where

to me. one of the glories of the country.
There-and l say it with sincere regret
is where our great weakness lies In Eng
land we have no secondary schools. The
boy who leaves the elementary school has
one of two paths to follow-he must go
either to work or to some private school
to prepare for the university. The average
boy goes to work. and the average parent,
accustomed to this deplorable system, ac-
cepts the situation as matter of course
We have the schools, but we lack the
support and interest of the parents, with
out which ours must be an almost hope
less task.
One feature that struck the visitor is
the educational enthusiasm displayed
by American alumni associations.
Nothing of this kind exists in England,
he declared. English classmates bare

when they meet Another thing OBJ
served by Sir William is that interest
in popular education is even keener in
the west than in the east. AS a cham

A Defective Memory,

ecstasies over young woman elo-
cutionist who had taken part in it.
"She had on a trained gown of
dark purple velvet" she said, with
bodice trimmed in deep cape collar
of real Irish lace and lace cuffs. She
wore her hair pompadour and had a
diamond cluster at her throat"
"What did she recite?" asked Mr..
Ferguson.
Something about a little girl
whose mother lost her in the park or
somewhere. I've forgotten the name
of it. You know well enough what
a wretched memory have. But it
was awfully pathetic. What are you
grinning about, I'd like to know?"-

Literature and Profit.

The keynote of recent book entitled
"A Publishers Confession" is the in
vasiOn of the field of literature by COM
meTcialiSm. The title of this little work
is a misnomer, for it is in essence
plea for the publisher and claim that
he is not "hogging' the profits that
come from the liberal public patronage
of literature
The writer of this book declares that
the publisher is underpaid and could
make more money in some other field.
He says that the public gets its good
novels too cheap and there is not
enough margin of profit for author,
publisher and bookseller. This question,
like most others, has more than one
side. The author is of course entitled
to all he can get for his production,
which is the basis of the whole enter
prise. The public, too, has right to
buy as cheaply as possible. Between
the two are publisher and bookseller,
and it is Il fact that the latter often
cuts his stated profit in half in order to
meet and to drive out competition. So
also the publisher puts up royalties to
get the best of competitor. 1t is
worthy of note that some of the most
active publishing houses of the country
have failed within recent years, and
there is much in experience to support
the statement that publishing as pub
fishing is the least profitable of all the
professions, except preaching and

A LAWYERS RUSE.
The Way the Phoenix Park Conspira-
tors Were Trapped.

In the beginning of the prosecu-
tions of the Phoenix park gang the
Irish government brought forward
charge of simple conspiracy. They
suspected the real facts, but had no
evidence. Mr.. Murphy (afterward
the judge, who was counsel for the
prosecution, hit upon daring meth
cd of securing what he wanted.
In applying to the magistrate for
a remand to certain date, he add
ed, putting as much significance as
he could into his words, by which

At this the prisoners in the dock
turned to each other in distrust, but
each declared in whispers that he
had said nothing. However, no
sooner was he in his cell than Cur
ley, one of the accused, told a warder
that he wanted to speak to Mr.. -,
the solicitor for the prosecution.
The solicitor at once went to Mr..
Murphy, who observed that Curley
would not make a good witness. The
object, above all, was to get Carey if
possible to turn informer. He was
the ablest man of the batch and
knew more than all the others put
together. Whereupon the following
plan was devised:
Carey's cell door was left open,
and the warder and the solicitor (the
latter well known to Carey stopped
there, and. the solicitor stepping
partly in, the warder exclaimed:
"No, Mr.. -, that is not Cur
ley's cell. 1t is two doors farther
on"
