ROMAN "BLOCCO" SAID
TOBE SPLITTING UP
Coalition of Anti-Clerical Parties

ROME, May 26, 1910
The time is approa ching when a portion
of the Roman municipal council must seek
reelection, and. in view of the impor-
lance which the affairs of that body pos
sess for the whole of Italy, the contest
Will have far more than local interest.
At the last election an anti-clerical
coalition, the so-called blocco of socialists.
republicans, radicals and liberal mon
archists was formed. which won a COM
plete victory on the program OF cheaper
food and lower rents" gaining siXtyfour
out of eighty seats of which the council is
composed, and seating Signor Nathan, an
English Jew, in the chair.
Like most victorious parties, the blocco
has been unable to carry out its election
eering promises, and, while the streets Of
Rome are no better kept than before, both
the cost of food and the rents of houses
have risen, notwithstanding the democ-
rags complete command of the Capito-
line Hill, where the council holds its
meetings.
The clericals have resolved to abstain
from the approaching contest. but the lib
erai monarchists, weary of being hewers
of wood and drawers of water for the eX-
treme parties, from whose opinions they
differ on all points save one. and that not
the most important, are seeding from
the blocco. which accordingly shows signs
of dissolution.
The editor of the Messaggero, the able
creator of the blocco, who yields great
influence in Rome, is striving hard to keep
that fissiparous organism together; but
election promises in Italy, as elsewhere,
are apt to be boomerangs, which react on

SOUTH AFRICA STIRRED
BY LANGUAGE DISPUTE
Effort of Premier to Enforce BIZ
1ingual Instruction Has Aroused
Much Resentment.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence OF The star.
CAPE TOWN, May s, 1910.
The situation created by the education
policy of the Orangia government has
aroused strong feeling not only in that
colony, but throughout South Africa. 1he
prevailing opinion is that in the blind
pursuit Of his ideal Gen. Hertzog is en-
daagering the whole cause of education
in the Free State.
The recent resignation of the director of
education was the climax of series of
regrettable incidents which have attended
his attempt TO force compulsory bi-lin-
gualism on the country. Gen. Hertzcg
insists not only that each child shall be
compelled to learn both Dutch and Eng
lish, but that he or she shall be taught
in both languages.
The impracticability and injustice OF
this policy nave been urged in vain. Last
year no fewer than 100 teachers. or 20
per cent of the teaching staff of the
colony. resigned their appointments. and
three senior inspectors were summary
dismissed. Teachers. inspectors, director.
all may go if they cannot comply with
HertZoS'S orders
Although primary and secondary educa-
ton are to be left. temporarily at least,
to the provincial councils under the union,
but be gravely concerned in the deplor-
able series of education crises which have
now reached a climax across the Orange
river.
The Johannesburg Star says Gen. Hert-
zog has made it plain that so far as he
can help it there is to be no modification
whatever of the reactionary system
which has made his name byworu from
one end OF South Africa to the other The
new constitution itself offers little hope
of Improvement where primary education
is concerned. Finally. any prospect which
there may have been of measure of in
direct relief through the pressure of a
progressive and enlightened union gov
eminent is rapidly vanishing.
The Natal Mercury asserts that from
the Inflated day when Gen. Hertzog was
made the ministerial head of the educa-
ton department he has given full rein to
his implacable hatred of everything Brit
ish, regardless of the real educational
welfare of the rising generation, Dutch
as we'll as British.

One of the Spice Islands.
rom the Wide World Magazine.

Ternate is one of several little islands
archipelago known as the Moluccas or,
more commonly. the Spice Islands" be-
cause there was a time when spices. such
as nutmeg, cloves and mace, were largel,
imported from that part of the world.
The islands still yield plenty of spices,
but nothing like what they formerly did,
because when the Dutch took possession
OF them they made a treaty with the ma
tive suitans to destroy many of the for
ests. in order that they might keep the
entire monopoly of the spice trade in
their own hands. Most of us, I think
remember coming across the Spice
Islands on the map during our school
days. and Ternate is one of the two resi-
dences of that group over which Queen
Wilhelmina exercises her rule and author
ty with the aid of native sutans. The
island was created some centuries ago by
volcanic eruption, and is still subject
10 frequent shocks of earthquake.

tant part of our globe. where earth move
ments of an exciting nature may be eX-
perienced without any great danger OF
being swallowed up entirely. The last
severe earthquake-as the inhabitants
count such things-took place at the be-
ginning of the last century. when the

the celestias were busy celebrating with
their usual carnival professions through
the streets and other kinds of jollitica-
tons that drew all the inhabitants from
their homes to join in the revelry.
In the midst of the public rejoicings and
amid the din of exploding fireworks. such
as the natives love, nature joined In,
rocking the earth and bringing down
hundreds of houses like so many packs
of cards, Fortunately, the inha bit ants
of volcanic islands in the tropics are
wiser than their brethren elsewhere, for

MADE COINS IN JAIL
Plant in Operation Twenty
Years Is Seized.
UNDER FLOOR OF CELL
Two Long-Term Prisoners Confess
They Turned Out Quantities
of Counterfeit Money.

JEFFERSON CITY. Mo. June Ga
fully equipped counterfeiting plant. which
has been in operation at the state peni-
Tertiary for twenty years: was raided yes
terday by Government Inspector Edward
j. McHugh Molds. fire pots. spurious
coins and paraphernalia were confiscated
and two prisoners taken. Both confessed
having made counterfeit half dollars
quarters and five-cent pieces.
The plant, Inspector McHugh says. has
been in the penitentiary for twenty years.
and has been handed down from prisoner
10 prisoner. The men arrested are Lee J..
Jaynes. a five-year man from Kansas
City, and Joseph Vail. another long-term
prisoner from there.
A Quarrel between four prisoners oc-
cupying the same cell regarding the divi-
sion of the spoils was responsible for the
raid.
Gov. Hadley has announced that he will
pardon both men in October, when the
federal court convenes, that they may be
prosecuted.
Molds Hidden in Cell.
When Warden Andrea learned that
prisoners were making spurious coins he
placed watch on the suspected men in
the hope of catching them in the act. His
discovery was made last Thursday.
Three molds made by counterfeiters
were found hidden in the cell occupied
by JAMES and Vail Two sets of these
were for fifty-cent pieces, one for quarter
dollars and the other for five-cent pieces.
A small plaster of Paris furnace used for
heating the metal was dug from under
the cell floor.
This furnace was constructed to re-
ceve a receptacle four inches square.
Charcoal was used for fuel. Hidden in
the beds of the prisoners were found
eight fifty-cent, two twenty-five-cent and
two five-cent pieces.
The appearance of the furnace showed
it had been in operation but short
while. 1t is the opinion of Inspector Nc
Hugh that the men did not have chance
to put any of their coins in circulation.
Jaynes and Vail were simply following
out the course of former convicts
Circulated Coins at Carnivals.
1t is custom at the Jefferson City
prison to hold carnival twice year,
one on Christmas day, when a three
days feast is allowed the long-term men,
and the otner on the Fourth of July. 1t
was for this latter holiday that Jaynes
and Vail were preparing.
When the carnival is held concessions
are granted to the long-term men, and
they have stands en- which are various
articles for sale. For twenty years the
carnivalS have been an eSta blished Gus
tom, and invariably after their celebration
counterfeit coins have been found among
the prisoners Even prison officials, who
parroniZed the stands, were sometimes
made victims.
