Method. for reaching the Deaf.

BENSON. keb. Oct. 13.-To the Editor
OF The Bee; In recent report of the
meeting OF the Parents Association OF
the Nebraska School for the Deaf. the
meeting is said TO have been "a large and
enthusiastic meeting" at which resolu-
tions indorsing the Nebraska oral law and
the oral method we're passed. As a mat
ter of fact this meeting was composed
OF a number OF parents who had just
come to Omaha to enter their children
at the school, and who were marshalled
by the superintendent and oral teachers,
and who were 30 uniformed and mlsin-
formed that they did the bidding OF those
Interested.
The Nebraska oral law. can have the
sanction and support OF no fair-minded
person. II is contrary 10 the principles
OF American freedom to enact law that
will make mandatory the method OF edu-
eating a child or certain group of chill
dren It IL class legislation OF the rank
est kind. The deaf people OF Nebraska
are up in arms against this law and will
do all they can to have II repealed at
the next meeting of the Legislature. and
earnestly urge all fair-minded men and
women to assist them.
The great majority of schools for the
deaf in America are combined system
schools They TT the method to the child
and not, as is trying to be done in Ne
braska, by legal enactment. fit the child
20 the method. Because of the fact that
America is after educational results and
Is not hidebound by any single method
tho deaf of America lead the world in
both an educational and a material sense.
The deaf of Europe are not in the same
class with them. The question Is. IL Ma
braska going to adopt Europe's failure
or keep abreast OF the great American
schools for the deaf? II the citizens OF
Nebraska know what they are about
and are not msled by faddists, they will
repeal this obnoxious and unjust law.

The Remedy.

We have seen that preparation for war by one
nation begets similar preparation by those nations
which feel themselves endangered The remedy for
this is evidently one worldwide organization Of as
many peaceful powers possible to prevent war and
insist that differences between nations shall be peace
fully adjusted by The Hague conference, or other
tribunal satisfactory the contendants In the last
resort II necessary the world peace court could de
liver judgment by a majority vote. which would be
binding upon the powers.
without separate armies and nsvies there could be
no war world would be at peace. This fact can
be gansad 1t Is therefore in this direction that
men of peace should labor. one great step toward
this, have said, has been made by the following
announcement; here lies the germ which only needs
development to Danish from civilized nations:
1.-THE British, French and Russian governments, on
Saturday September 5. mutually agreed not TO make
peace separately during the present war and one
them shall demand conditions OF peace without the
previous approval of the others"
Here the allied nations combine and act as one.
After the present belligerents agree upon peaceful
settlement, Germany and Austria should be the first
invited by the allies to Join in forming League OF
Peace. Should they accept then some of the other
nations might be invited At the first meeting of the
league general principles might be Formulated
First one general World Peace commission shall be
established to which each member shall contribute
toward expenditure in proportion TO it's population and
wealth Their respective fleets shall be merged, con-
trolled and operated under such management as the
league may direct from time to time. No war policy
or attack upon any nation or fleet shall be made
cept by majority vote Of two-thrds of all the mem
of the World Peace league, and then only after
timely notice to the nations threatened. The commits
sion shall exercise undsputed authority, always pro-
vided II is sustained and action approved from time
to time by two-thirds of the total membership.

Beldon Still Leads Crane
After Second Nights Play

In the second block of their 1000
point 1872 balk-line billiard match,
played last night at Cranes Essex
Billiard Hall, in Broad street, Charles
s. Beldon has a lead over Lewis M.
Crane of fifty-five points. Beldon's
score last night was 260, with high
runs of 80, %, 20, and an average of
6 4-21. Crane totaled 1876. with high
runs of 20, II, Is, and an average of
9-14 Totals for the two nights play:
Beldon, 500; Crane, 445. The balance
of the match will be played tonight
and Friday night at $3.50.
Beldon was plainly in the best
stroke last night. playing his shots
with a great deal of confidence,
making a number of daring draw
shots and equally as many round
the-table shots. Crane seemed to be
under strain all through the game,
never once playing with his usual
sure and easy stroke.
The game was enjoyed by a large
crowd of their friends, who, judging
from their frequent applause, were
well satisfied with the exhibition, and
a much larger crowd is expected to
turn out to see the balance of the
match. The score by innings is as

Tending the Americas Cup off Sandy
Hook next September met at an in
formal dinner at the New York
Yacht Club last night. at which. it
is said, tentative schedule of races,
which had been prepared by William
Butler Duncan, was discussed
According TO a member OF the club,
who has talked with some OF the men
who are building the yachts, most Of
the races are likely to be sailed in
open water east OF New London,
where the yachts will contest under
conditions resembling as nearly as
possible those off Sandy Hook.
1t is also understood that these
races will all be trials, sailed under
the observation Of some members of
the Americas Cup committee, who
are to select the yacht which will
meet Sir Thomas Lipton's Shamrock
". This would result in the de-
fender being chosen without any for
NAL elimination race being held.
That local yachtsmen. however,
have not given UP hope of securing
trials of the big yachts in nearby
waters is indicated by an invitation
for a series of races over the cup
course off Sandy Hook, received from
the Atlantic Yacht Club by Mr.. Dun
can, who has@'been appointed a COM
mittee of one to draw up a racing
schedule for the three boats.
