revolutionary thought have been pro

Lion and the Mouse" 'SHThe Fourth
| Estate and Rebellion" are notable
instances. Prominent among this
class is "Kindling," written by Charles
Kenyon and now being played by Mar
garet Ellington and an able company
the production of Wk4Hh was witnessed
by the writer at the New Theatre, in
Fort Smith.
The scenes are laid in the New York
tenement home of Heinrich and Mag
gle Schulze. The latter role is played
by Miss Ellington, whose fine acting
wins the instant sympathy Of her au
dience. In her dingy blue dress, plain.
" done hair, corsetless figure >and
badly worn shoes she seems indeed a
woman of the working class.
Maggie is to become mother. And
every one tells her that it Is wrong. for
people in their circumstances to bring
children into the world. Mrs. Bates,
Washer-woman, who lives in the tene.
ment with her tells her that the sick
baby up stairs-just about dead is
only suffering from a severe attack
OF being born in this hole" Mrs.
Burke Smith, the wealthy and aristo.
cratic owner of the wretched tenement
In which they live, tells her that it is
gross error for people, situated as
they are, to bear children. And Heiney.
her husband. says it's worse than muir
der and il baby came he would kill
1t.
Poor Maggie doesn't know what to
do. Mrs. Bates has told her of a won.
derful county out West--Wyoming-
where the babies born are strong-and
come to stay. It will take only one
hundred dollars to get there. where
they can homestead some land. Heiney
has agreed to go, but 1t will take quite
a long time to save up the money
even now there's strike on.
And something must be done now.
She decides to accept Mrs. Burke
Smiths offer to go and sew for her at
IS per week. She will act on Steve's
suggestion his aceomplice in
robbiRg Mrs. Burke Smiths house, for
which, she is to receive half the loot.
Thus will she get the hundred dollars
to go to Wyoming where the baby may
be born strong-and come to stay.
The robbery is done. And Maggie
finds herself involved In series of
falsehoods to cover up her guilt. But
it comes out, her husband learns first
OF her theft when he finds some
stolen baby ribbon and baby pins. And
then he knows of the baby that is COM
ing. His manner. which has been
tinged with cruelty, now changes to
affectionate tenderness. And when
the officers come to arrest Maggie he
declares that he is the robber and viii

1T is to be hoped that the next words
were indellibly impressed upon the
minds OF all who saw this tragedy
common in the lives OF the mothers

until we would have the for

Europe, broke, which is not
true.
The writer believes that
when a country ships more
goods, gold, and other things
out than it gets in, that the
country is that much poorer
by reason of the exchange,
and if we were not such a
wealth producing nation, we
would soon feel the effects OF
this constant drain.
Notwithstanding this big
balance for all these years,
European nations or peoples
do not seem to owe us any
thing, but on the other hand
they own a big lot of our Sc
curities of various kinds, sC

NOTES OF THE SCHOOLS

schools of the Northeast Capitol Hill,
Anacostia, and West Washington show a
steady growth. A marked decline in the
schools in the downtown section is ap-
parent from year to year.
Business, Tech, and Central High
Schools all report several students over
the 1000 mark, while Eastern and West
ern have their full quotas. At Tech the
boys always have far outnumbered the
girls, while girls have been in the ma
jority at the other high schools. This
year the boys form over 40 per cent of
the enrolment at Central.

The opening Of the schools for the
year. 1894, has been an event Of public
interest during the last week. Prepara-

small army of pupils that the machinery
OF organization ran without the slip of
a cog before the middle of the week.
Few changes are noted in the personnel
Of the official and teaching staff, but
the aggregate enrolment Of pupils shows
a marked increase over that of last
year.
One OF the most noticeable conditions
confronting supervisors IN their plan of
adjustment is the overwhelming trend

schools of the Third Division show an
increase Of 700 over last year, with an
enrolment OF 45n9. Petworth, Takoma

The charm and the service the long

The keeping things pleasant and max

OF babies at the breast and a child on

OF building and planning and keep

Like a fortress around us how nobly

Sharing our sorrow. our tof and our

And a dream in their hearts that our
