committee, who assisted Superintend-
ent Perkins in looking after Portland.
Senator Garcelon declared that Lew :
.ston uses all the money secured from
the state and considerable more raised
by local taxation for school purposes
strictly and that it would be unjust to
make the city turn back any OF the
money to which ii was entitled because
Of valuation or the number of school
pupils. Superintendent Perkins thought
the present law works all right but
was willing to have the towns given
the same privilege regarding balances
as the cities now enjoy. He stoutly
opposed, however, any change that
would force the cities to turn back to
the State any urexpended balances. He
argued that the amendment was based
on an altogether wrong Interpretation
Of the actual facts and that the actual
situation in relation to the uneXpended
balances in the cities destroyed all ar
guments OF the proponents of the bill
Mr. Stetson argued that cities and
towns should be placed on the same
basis in regard to the school money
the present system the cities were Civ
en- an unfair advantage.
Conditions and Effect
There was much discussion over the
exact provisions of the amendment,
Messrs Ste;son, burlington, Perkins.
Garcelon and Murphy having some
lively arguments. on the side as -
as to the effect of the proposed bill.
Rep. McIntire of Waterford took
hand in behalf of the towns and he
and Mr.. Perkins entertained the COM
mittee for some time in an attempt 10
reach an understanding of the presen.
and proposed laws. During the discus
sion it was brought out that a few
towns and Lewiston and Biddeford
are the only places in the State where
there is an unexpended balance of
school money and this is of material
size only in the two cities named.
Parochial Schools
When the discussion had finally set
tied down to safe and sane" basis.
Rev FIR. Cary Of HalIowell supervisor
Of the parochial schools of Maine was
permitted TO make a statement 10 the
committee. He empha sized the double
tax argument and offered for the con-
sideration Of the committee an amend
ment Of the bill under discussion which
would provide for pro rata and per
capita payment to the rarochial
schools OF State school money. He
also presented a long statement of
facts from Bishop Walsh on the sub
ject for the benefit of the commit
tees.
Fr. Cary argued that leading educa.
tors all over the country have recog-
nized the fact that more moral in
struction is needed in the public
schools and stated that the New Eng
land Teachers Association had offered
a prize of $1,000 for the hest essay on
the subject. He pointed out that orig
inally the American public schools vas
religious in character and retains this
characteristic in many places Tte
constitution of the State wisely ana
generously provides for the aiding OF
secondary schools which are sectarian
and FT. Cary believed this principle
should be extended to the schools OF
lower Grade

WOMEN OF coRsAN COURT.
Great Reduction In Their Number
Influence They Once Exerted.

Great Reduction In Their Number
Influence They Once Exerted.
The visit Of three Corean court la
dies to japan Is an indication OF the
striking changes that have resulted
from the Japanese occupation of the
Hermit Kingdom. TWO years ago
there were no fewer than 1900 ladies
In waiting. now there are only 100.
This wholesale reduction naturally
created CONSERVATION. and there was
much lamentation among those whose
services were dispensed with. Their
lot, however, does not seem to have
been altogether enviable. It appears
that 1t has been the custom to take
girls into the court from the age Of
10. and thenceforth throughout the
whole period of their natural lives
they were never allowed to leave the
precincts of the palace, So that they
lived in absolute ignorance Of the
outside world.
The few who accompanied the EN-
peror on his recent tour gave evil
dence of the timidity which had re-
suited from their long confinement,
for they could hardly be persuaded to
enter the train, and they finally did
So with manifest trepidation.
Hitherto the influence of these Ia
dies at court has been very great.
Having constant access to the ear
of the Sovereign. on the one hand,
and being. on the other, accessible to
all the intriguing influences that pre-
vailed In the unwholesome atmos-
phere of the court, their power ex-
ceeded even that of Ministers of State.
