President vi recently sent to President
Roosevelt a request for a private unotti-
cial audience. The prince has received
a reply in which the President stated
that he would have no time at present
to grant such an audience.
Prince Vi said he accepted this as
declination from the President to see him
and would make no further effort in that
direction at present.

and partly because OF the monstrOus misrepre-
sensations OF that measure which have been cir
culated If any Dominican CRATER wishes, for
his own sordid advantage to defeat this great
reform in the affairs OF that republic he can use
no more effective means OF stirring up ignorant
opposition to it than the quotation from Amer
lean papers Of declarations that the treaty would
make Santo Domingo a mere subject colony
"satrapy" we believe is the favorite wOrd-of the
United States. That every such declaration is
entirely false does not matter. Made by Amer
lean papers, why should not Dominicans accept
it as true? The six grounds of opposition 10 the
treaty which are formally put forward by dis
affected Dominicans pretty clearly indicate their
origin, or their inspiration, in the malicious mis-
representations which have been made in the
United States.
We shall not cease to hope, however, that the
better judgment of the DOmincans will prevail
and that the great and evident benefit which the
republic has already received from the existing
arrangement will encourage them to make that
arrangement lasting until its purpose is fulfilled.
They should be able to perceive that in rejecting
the treaty they would be playing into the hands
Of their enemies

our MALIGNED MANyERs.

There was a time when the attitude Of Euro
peans toward American ways was one OF conde-
scension and nothing else. Our genial writers
used 70 gladden. the dull hours with stories about
the patronizing airs Of oversee snobs and ig-
noramuses. But recent years have brought O
change Of temper, as may be seen from sundry
complaints that have crept into the English
magazines. The ways Of the American, it ap-
pears, have been adopted by the younger genera
ton Of BrltOns and have extermlnated old fash
Toned courtesy. grace and formaIlty. A writer In
'The Nineteenth Century" laments that his cOun-
trymen are now ION the brink Of manners neg
alive, manners NIL" And he charges the Amer
leans with a large share Of the blame for this
catastrophe.
Possibly we are culDrits. But might 1t not be

charge? Have we really brought ourselves
and England to ''the brink Of manners Mrs

REAL EDUCATION.
Scientific Methods Train One to Use
Both Eyes and Mind.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: I have read with interest the article IN
YOUR issue OF the 10th entitled "A Dtsheartened
Student" and it seems TO me that the writer OF
the same and the complaining students with
whom he seems to sympathize are entirely OBJ
lIvlous TO the chief object OF education He
seems 10 think that the only object OF education
IS TO cram the pupil with facts. and 70 consider
tho value OF every kind OF instruction TO depend
upon the immediate utility to the pupil Of the
facts acquired
Now this is not my idea of education. nor was
II the idea OF the various instructors under
whom studied IN my student days. The great
zoologist Agassiz founded the School OF Com
parative Zoology at Harvard. 1t was my good
fortune TO attend his lectures not because
wanted to know anything about zoology. but
because I wished TO learn the methods Of
science. Professor Agassiz emphasized the I'm
portance OF accurate observation and the i'm
portance OF logical deduction from the OBJ
served facts. When student came into his
laboratory he would give him fish, micro
scope and a box OF dissecting instruments. and
tell him to dissect the fish and make a note
Of everything he observed. After the student
made his report the professor would tell him
20 go over the work again and dissect another
fish OF the same kind and what he had
missed the first time. Now. the object OF this
was not 10 familiarize the student with that
particular fsh. but IL to cultivate his
powers Of observation and his power OF reason
ing from what ne saw.
Your writer attacks all the 'ologists' and the
efforts which no says they make to secure the
floor in the great American school "fOr scandal

RERTHELOT.

The death Of Pierre Berthelot. following close
" after that Of Henri MOiSsan, makes France
and the whole scientific world doubly bereft
in tho loss of two Of the foremost chemists Of
+bO age. It will not be invidiOus to say that
Berthelot was the better known to the world
and had achieved the more, though, indeed, 1t
is high praise of him simply to say that he sur
passed Moissan. But he was by many years
the elder Of the two and was MOissan's precep-
tor. and probably was the pioneer In some OF
the researches which the younger man pur-
sued and In which he became famous. In his
investigations and discoveries in the synthesis
Of fats, glycerines. alcOhols and carbohydrates
generally, in coal tar dyes, in high explosives
and in thermo-chemistTy, he made the whole
world his debtor. Nor was the debt unrecOg-
nized He was chosen q member Of the most
DISTINGUISHED scientific bodies Of Great Britain,
America and other lands, while in France be
succeeded Duhamel a member and Pasteur
as permanent secretary OF the Academy Of Sci
ences and was made Grand Officer Of the Lee
glon Of Honor.
Berthelot was, moreover, eminent not only
as a man of thought, but also as man or
action and Of practical affairs. In the Terri
BILE Year he was the head Of the Sc1entlho
Committee Of Defence Of Paris. and 1t was IN
that capacity that he performed the works
which led to the invention Of smokeless powder
and other important explosives. AS Deputy
and a Senator he contributed much of value to
LEGISLATION as Inspector General Of Higher Edu-
cation he did a memorable work, and as Min
lister of Public Instruction and Minister OF For
e,gn Affairs he showed himself as competent IN
high politics. and In diplomacy as In the lect-
IRE room and laboratory. Withal, he was
man of the most engaging and admirable per
sonal qualities whom to see was to honor ana
TO know was to love. His name Will I'LL large
