Murder on the Increase.

Murder in France is on the increase.
Grimes of passion" are becoming
more and more frequent in Paris, the
killing of wives, husbands and lovers
being almost daily events One of the
leading newspapers suggests that this
method is quicker, easier and cheaper
than divorce. 1t is pointed out that
divorced women cannot marry again
in the church, but that a murderess caA
do so after confession. AS one of the
remedies it is suggested that the manu-
facture of firearms be limited 1t is
also recommended that the evil be
cured by education, for the present
day system of training is credited with
clarifying egotism, which permits moth
ing to interfere or thwart the i'm
pulses.

QUALIFICATIONS OF SCHOOL
TRUSTEES.

One of the most exhaustive discus
sions of the public school system of
the United States is a book by Elsa
Denison called Helping School
Children" In a chapter dealing with
the proper qualifications of school
trustee are given the questions asked
by New Jersey mayor of the bureau
of municipal research. They are
searching and most suggestive. We
reproduce the list
81. Are they (men or women in
terested in the success of the public
schools?
"2. Do they (men or women know
reasonably we'll the local conditions
which the public school is supposed
to express and the local needs which
the public school is supposed to meet?
''3. Are they (men or women in
the habit of basing Judgment on facts?
a. Are they capable of managing
any other business where they would
have an equal number of subordinates
and an equal number of patrons?
50 Can they use effectively the six
sources of information: annual report
of board of education and its super
intendent; monthly statements sub
mitted to the board at its monthly
meetings; statements made directly
to the commissioners by teachers and
states and national reports on public
schools and general discussion of
topics by newspapers, school journals,
popular magazines, and citizens? No
school trustee can fulfil his trustee
ship who is not conscientiously seek
ing to make the most of these six
sources of information for himself
and the public.
&c. Is any one (woman or mani |
qualified who despises records of work |
done and of needs unmet which she |
or he is apt to call mere statistics?
Who has contempt for the public and
thinks it can never understand the in
tricacies of school management? Who
in intellect or strength of character
is inferior to teachers or principals?
Who has never had experience in APP
plying efficiency tests to suborinates
and to her or his own results?"
This interesting list Of questions
by New Jersey mayor is
followed by the authors own comment
which forecasts a good time coming.
For the children's sake we may
be grateful that the time is coming
when it will no longer be considered
sufficient for a school board mem
Der to be simply willing to serve, just
as it is no longer sufficient for So
,ial worker to give willing service
Unless that service is efficient"

Turf Writer Returns.
O'Neil Sewer, the well-known turf
writer, has just returned from a trip
to Australia, where he went in the
interests Of the Panama exhibition. He
says that Australia will need $4,000
remounts between now and the end
of the fiscal year 1890 Under the
plays laid down by Lord Kitchener, it
will be necessary by that time to have
21,000 cavalry horses and "a 900 artil- |

ItaIy's Panama Exhibit.

1t is reported from Rome that a
large part of Italy's exhibition at the
Panama fair to be held at San Francis
co next year will be devoted to the
olive oil industry. During the past
year there have been so many allega-
lions made against the quality of oil
exported to the United States from
Italy that Italians are anxious to coun-
teract the impression by an exhibit.
1t is believed that this method will be
more convincing even than the circu-
lars and booklets that have been issued
by Italian boards of trade and other
similar organizations. The best olive
trees obtainable will be shipped to San
Francisco and the complete process
from the picking of the berry to the
pressing of the oil will be shown
Waiting for Won Deidrich's Book.

book in which his version of the Ma
Mia incident will be given In the
light of the discussion which has been
caused in Germany by Admiral Dew
ey's book and the caustic criticism
made by Won Deidrichs it is believed
that the latter's work will provoke a
sharp statement from Admiral Dewey,
if not another book. 1t is an ill wind
that blows no one good, so the publish
ers of Germany are rejoicing The
sale of Dewey's book has been enor-
nous in Germany and the advance or
ders for the Won Deidrichs memoirs
has reached stupendous proportions.
Prince of Wales May Visit U. S.
Although others may be added to the
list, it is certain, according to present
of King George and
Queen Mary, that the Prince of Wales |
will make at least three important |
visits in the near future-one to Can |
ida, India and Australia. If his Royal |
Iighness goes to Canada it is almost |
certain that he will visit the United
States. If the arranging of the tours
S left to the prince, he will certainly
isit the United States. He is, how
yer, leaving the planning of his flu
ure movements almost entirely in the
ands of his parents, and it is safe to
ay that it will be- the Queen who will
nally determine the trips he will
lake.
