Service Of Private schools.

When the opinions of leading educa-
tors. chiefly the heads of universities.
on the value of the private school. were
recently collated by the principal of
the FL lends Select Sci col. OF l.ildel-
phia, there was developed in a strik-
ing way the hold that the endowed and
tuition schools have up1n scholarly ia
vor. While the exact ground of ap-
proval varies, there was among these
contributors to common opinion that
educational progress is now and will
he for the future dependent on the con
tinuance OF thoroughly equipped pri-
vate schools
When the valuation is made by the
parent or other selector oil the educa-
tional path for particular pupil the
estimate is or linar1ly based upon a
comparison between the offerings Of
certain public and private secondary
schools. The general merits of priyat !.
or public schooling are little take nitu
account in the individual problem. But
the grounds for the discussion IF the
two classes in their relative contribu-
tion to educational progress have a
distinct interest. What may be claim
ed as the merits Of private instiint'on5
IN their effect upon the broad result2
The opinion that proves to be the con-
sensus II the opinion of the leaders is
that the public school is of necessity
the follower of ascertained methods.
that the private schools may be look
I'd to for expe, imentation and the ad-
vance of new processes.
How far the privately supported
schools justify the claim and the hope
would doubtless be disputed. Those
that advance new methods perform a
great service to the extent that they
mark out ground that public schools
held somewhat in check by conserv-
atism which public support imposes,
will come to occupy as the merits of
such grounds are established. Moth
ing would be more idle than to argue
that the private schools of the United
States were saccessfcI rivals of the
public ones. The faith in the free
school is too deeply rooted and toe
sweepingly justified out of experience
TO allow even a discussion of compe-
tition. But the plea is attractive. at
least, and the private institutions in the
fields make distinct contribution
which would he lacking if they were
done away with
Generous as is the opinion of the
free school system on the part of those
who plead for the founded or tuition
institutions. there is an implied crit
icism of the tax-supporled schools,
in that they are agreed TO fail of the
individual impetus that comes from a
less rigid plan. There is implied, il not
spoken, q renewal Of the old criticism
of the lockstep OF the public schools.
But il to be assumed that there may
not yet be an advance in public school

CIRCUIT COURT.
Cases Brought for TriaI---HumOrOus
Incidents.


The session of the Circuit Court this
morning was occupied with the trial
of two magistrates appeal cases, in
volving small amounts.
There were some humorous features
in the appeal of S. w. Labrot against
DR.. Thos W. Spranklin the veterinar-
ian. the latter being the plaintiff in
the original proceedings. On the face
of the claim of $50, it appeared to be
for looking at dog belonging TO a
boy of Mr.. Labrot. The dog was
thought to have a fish hook in its
throat, but was found TO have piece
of crab bait too large to swallow.
DR. Spranklin claimed, however. that
he had sold piece of land to Mr.. La
brot for $500. but tn at the latter did
not wish it to appear that h e had paid
more than S450 for it, and agreed that
DR.. Spranklin should render q bill
for that amount as professional servi-
ces when an opportunity presented it
self. The court held that this agree
ment was not established
The trial of the appeal Of the Inde-
pendent lee and Supply Company
against Edward F. Snader and Flor
ence |. Snader was begun before a
jury Mr.. and Mrs. Snader claimed
payment for horse and wagon
