practical end of improving education
in it's relation to character and con-
duct But, while limiting itself to mat
ters of ethical education which concern
men of all shades Of religious opinion,
the congress will not be in any sense
anti-religious, nor will it seek to ex-
clude reference to thei religious aspects
of educational problems.
A number of distinguished educators,
editors, publicists, statesman, and pro-
fessors of Europe have shown their
interest in the congress by consent
ing to act on general committee of the
same. Among these are Gabriel Com

and inspector-general of public in

author of 1.-The Simple Life" Baron

Italian socialist, Achille Loria; Prof
Michael Sadler of Manchester, one of

LONDON, Sept. 23.-An Internat1on-
al Congress for moral education. the
first of its kind ever held, was con-
yened in London today and has at
tracted a large number of distinguished
educators from all over Europe. with
few from America 1t is the declara- :
ton of the members of the congress
that the great need of the. public
schools and universities of all countries
is a scientific and nor-sectarian system
of ethical education.
The congress will deal with the
problems of moral training in schooi
and home. Papers will be read on the
topics of school organization. coedu-
cation the moral values in the currl-
culum, discipline, Juvenile literature
civics, the education Of the morally
backward, and many other subjects
of importance in educational theory
The public meetings, sectional meet
ings and special conferences will be
supplemented by a carefully chosen
exhibit of books, pictures and various
illustrative material bearing on the
work of moral education. The organi-
zers of the congress expect valuable
nractical results to follow the meet
ings while the establishment of an in
ternational journal Of moral education
and of an international moral educa-
ton bureau, is among the oD1ects
hoped for by the committee.

Attracts MdnV

ROME. Sept. 23.-With the whole
college of cardinals thousands of arch
bishops, bishops and clergy and repre-
sentatives of all the important gov
ernments of the world filling the stands
in the vatican gardens, the papal jubi~
lee international athletic competitions
We're formally opened today by his
holiness, Pope Plus x. Thousands of
athletes of all nations marched before
the assembled priests and princes of
the church, the spectacle forming an
unique combination of ecclesiastical
splendor and gladitorial prowess
The opening Of today's tournament
marks the first time in the history OF
the Roman Catholic church that ath-
letic sports have formed great feat
ure of the golden jubilee, of a pontiff's
ordination to the priesthood. Plus X.
who has been priest for a half cen
tury, has always been an admirer Of
athletics and physical training, and
the present carnival was decided upon
as result of his frequently expressed
desire to see some of the worlds
greatest athletes in action.
Every Catholic nation of the earth
is represented among the thousands Of
athletes assembled in the vatican gar
dens today. AS was to be expected.
Italians largely predominant, with
ireland second in point of entries.
France, Spain, Germany, Switzerland,
Belgium, Holland, England and Aus
tralia have considerable delegations
and the United Saates and Canada
have sent some of their foremost Cath
olic athletes.
Owing to the fact that there can be
no co-or ration between the civil and
clerical authorities of Rome, the car
nlval will lack some of the features of
the recent Olympic games in London.
Considering the number of nations
represented, however, the results of
the competitions cannot fail of assum-
ing worldwide Importance. Medals will
be given by the pope to all winners,
and they will be accorded special hon
ors by his holiness
The sports commenced in the vatican
gardens today are the first athletic
competitions to disturb their quietness
since the destruction of the Calikulan
circus in the declining days of the
Roman empire. The gardens include
more than 100 acres and occupy, with
the vatican and st. Peters cathedral,
one of the seven hills of Rome.
No other spot on earth has as inter-
esting history to the Caucasian as
this field. Every time the shot leaves

spot where ancient gladiators fell in

Mills of the supreme court, asking that

question of sanity eJrome is oppos-

Thaw was brought here was made
in the effort to have him transferred

Hams Brothers

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-An extra

with Justice Garret J. GarretSon pre-
siding to facilitate the trial of the
Hams brothers for the murder OF VIII

attempt to delay the trial as long as
possible and it is unlikely that the

fore next month or November. The

Hains brothers might be tried without
unnecessary delay.
