THE oALL OF TIE rU1unE.

The newspapers of the city of New
Haven have not in a long time printed
more suggestive matter than is con-
tanned in the fists prepared b. the DIFF
ferent school principals of the scholars
who are about to enter the Hillhouse
High and the Boardnan Manual Train
ms schools. The thoughtful among us
who study the calls the future is to
make upon our intelligence in asstnn-
Hating the strangers within our gates
will find those lists Of inestimable
value.
We are not sure that President
Roosevelt would mot find TN those lists
another reason for appealing to the old
American families not to persist In
their race suicide habits. There is a
great scarcity Of familiar names.
Should one undertake to search for
names which are connected with the
early days Of the colony, the town and
the city one would come upon distinct
disappointment There are few there.
but not many. For the most part they
are names which tell of recent resi-
dence and new citizenship, the escape
from intolerahle conditions in other
countries and an Astounding faith In the
opportunities held out here to the op-
pressed of all nations. There is even a
noticeable lack Of the names which
connect the history of New Haven with
the heaviest period of Irish immigra-
ton. They are not names which in any
sense of the word alarm us. We are
not bit afraid that the destiny Of this
country, with it's variety OF climate and
its natural advantages, is to be en-
barrassed by the sudden influx of peo-
piles which know only through faith
and hope. That is not what these school
lists suggest to our mind. 1t is rather
the pressing duty which falls on the
departments of the city government
which nave to do with their education
their assimilation and their stimulus,
q duty which involves a somewhat
different plan of government in detail.
In one sense those children who are
to enter the advanced schools withou-
further examination may be trusted Il
look out for themselves. Having thus
far triumphed over the difficulties
which beset children of foreign birth
and foreign language and found the
way to an advanced education, tht
chances favor their taking place ear.

SO much more to guide them that our

taking the schools to the people in

Nit. There's no tax on goodness
in this country. You have got bug
in the ear"
ask the reader of this if any but
an honest man with the innocence of
childhood in his heart would have
dared to talk to a police captain that
way? If 1 had been running a joint
of any sort wouldn't have come down
at once and handed over my money
to help the officer pay the taxes on his
hundred thousand dollar mansion? He
went away in a huff and before the
end of another week it was all in the
papers that he had pulled a pool-room
in which 1 had a half interest. Mr..
Corners had not exactly deceived me.
When the brokers tried prayers and
meditations they found the hinges too
rusty to work and turned their meet
ings into something else. l believe
that there was betting on the horses,
but l was not there to see. The inno-
cent O'Toole family was again humili
ated and disgraced. and though 1 made
my position as clear as day, there are
people today who will not believe that
1 didn't stand in with the brokers.
Let such remem Der that 1 make this
as my dying statement.
1t was one of the finest gentlemen
1 ever met who came to me when 1
was fire commissioner and wanted to
supply the department with ten thou
sand feet of hose. There were others
like Mr.. O'Brien- 1 am still smoking
the cigars and drinking the wine he
had the thoughtfulness to send to the
house. He didn't do it to sway my
opinion. but that was one of his little
ways. When I had decided that his
hose was the best and given him the
contract over all others there was
howl of graft. 1t was charged that 1
had made a thousand dollars in cash.
1t was even said that Mr.. O'Brien was
a brother-in-law of mine. To my as
constituent, he did turn out to be
cousin, but 1 fail to see what that had
to do with 1t. There was such row
raised, however, that I rendered my
resignation and the mayor reluctantly
accepted it, and 1 was retired from
public life. I am still referred to as
d CRATER and now and then one of the
newspapers wonders why 1 was not
arrested and put on trial.
IT'S sad, thankless world. 1 hate
to leave Mrs. O'Toole to bear the bur-
den of our humiliation, but when the
time comes for me to go 1 shall be
ready and willing and shall trust that
time and reflection will cause the pub
lie to do justice to my memory. When
you enter the cemetery look for
the monument with a lamb on top.

has got so much mixed up with in
fanny that it is hardly possible to tell
them apart.
Ny wife's mother died a few years
ago and left her daughter a ware
house. 1 have the papers in the house
to show that the old lady was choked
to death on a f1shbone just as she was
preparing to pay US a visit and stay
six months. 1 have also her last will
and testament as regards the ware
house. Also, the undertaker's certifi-
cate that she was unusually reluctant

deeper than usual to checkmate any
plans she had formed of walking in
on me two or three days after the
funeral.
Ny wife turned the property over
to me, and after it had been idle for
a year q gentleman named Mr.. Crow
came to me and said:
Jimmie, you must know that roll

MOTHERHOOD PROTECTION.

No Good.

The latest phase in the German wo-
mans movement is in the direction of
motherhood protection. Just what this
move means was set forth at a recent
unofficial meeting of one of New
York's most progressive women's
clubs. The woman who explained
things is the wife of a well-known
German officer. Though she is not a
member of the club before which she
talked, she is most anxious for the
motherhood movement to be taken up
and pushed along by the clubwomen

THE motherhood movement in Ger
many" said she, as reported in The
women the right of motherhood, but
also to protect women as mothers.
Motherhood has been localized in art
and in poetry, but when we come to
real life what does 1t amount to ? Does
any one respect a woman because of
her motherhood In nine cases out
Of ten the title of mother is an empty
name. There are many points where
the mother stands without rights. and
without protection, and, 1 may also
add, without authority or parental
power over her children. Compared
with her husband. her power over her
children is extremely limited. notwith-
standing the fact that it is demanded
of her to devote by far the greater
part of her life to their training.

secure motherhood, or. better still,
