MORE MONEY MUST BE USED
 FOR EDUCATION, SENTIMENT
 AMONG CHINESE PROCRESSIvES.
Language Has Be Standardized and Smp1ifed Is Be- lief However-Now Canton Mon Can't Under
 stand Peknese Without First Studying It

ken words would be exactly the same in every province.
 The educators suggest that this re- form board would make text books and dictionaries containing the five thousand words or characters ade- quate to cover the first five years of primary school work. They regard that as the vital basis for educational reform in China, and suggest that more elaborate dictionaries and stand ard text books could easily be worked out so to put education even in the universities upon the same basis in all China.
 At present the pronunciation of Chinese characters is different in practically every province. A Can ton man is absolutely unable to un- derstand the language of a Pekfnese until he has studied the pronuncia- ton. The same is true of men from adjacent provinces in either the North or South of China
 It is estimated that the plan for standardizing Chinese would bring about universal language in China, Rn less than forty years, if compulsory education were adopted, and the Man darin dialect, or the dialect of the ed ucated class, were taught in all schools. Missionaries and other for eigners who have lived in China for many years are almost unanimous in their belief that the extremely dtfn- cult and varied language of the Chi nese is the greatest barrier to China's progress. Written and spoken Chi nese are in such hopeless complex ity that there are very few Chinese scholars who have been able to mas ter all the dialects even in a long life time of continuous study.
 Only artists of the first class are able to write certain Chinese charac- ters in an acceptable way. Of re- cent years there has been a tendency to write the characters in less ornate manner, and the reformers who are seeking ot standardize the language urge that writing be done in what Is known as the grass characters. These have less shading and the stroke can be made with a conventional pen in regular copy books. By the adoption of this style of characters in the news papers and in all official documents and correspondence, educators believe the simpler form of writing would readily be popuIarized together with the simple standardized vocabulary.

Liveryman Can't Get Damages Because Pony
 Ran Away With Girl

A little girl who is riding a hired pony is not to blame if the animal runs away and breaks leg. That is the decision of Judge John J. Walsh of the common pleas court in a suit brought by John Wah1, a Greenwich Iiveryman, against John Rowland, a wealthy resident of that city.
 Rowland hired the pony for a little girl who was a guest at his home. He did not take proper care of the ami nal, according to Wahl, who says the pony was allowed to run away and break a leg while the girl was taking a ride. How1and contended that he could not be held responsible for the fact that the pony ran away.
 In the suit brought by John Czernak of Stamford against Frank Preioska of Stamford the court awards the plaintiff $1,334. He alleged he had been defrauded in the purchase of a saloon.

Picking, March 4.-Even in the midst of revolutionary movements and monarchical preparations which hark back two thousand years, there are some progressive Chinese leaders endeavoring to work out the better ment of China and the Chinese in a quiet scientific manner. One of the most important of the recent move ments is an effort to standardize and simplify the Chinese language.
 This effort has been approved by President Yuan Shi-kai and is under general discussion in the Chinese press. It has the approval of the minister of education and foreign ed ucators living in China who have a knowledge of the Chinese language and appreciatae the great difficulties presented by the various dialects.
 The simp1ifcation and standard izing of Chinese textbooks for general use throughout all the provinces is re- garded as imperative before educa- ton can make great progress in Chi na and result in unihcation of the va rious provinces.
 The annual expenditure for the up keep of the army and navy is report ed to be approximately $4O,OOO,OOO gold, while the amount the central government appropriates for educa- ton is only one-f1ftieth of that sum.
 The sentiment through out China is that more money must be used for ed ucation. With proper system of taxation, China can realize sufficient money to maintain schools, but edu- cationa1 experts are universally agreed that adequate results cannot be at tained in Chinese schools until the written language of the Chinese is standardize dand simpHfed.
 Prominent educators recently sug- gested the creation of board for the accomplishment of this work. They would have such a board modify the present forid style of composition and put the Chinese classics, that is the better known works of Confu- cius, into simple language with sim- plified characters. This education would take from the Mandarin dia- 1ect as used in Peking, which is the language of scholars, possibly five thousand Chinese characters sufficient for ordinary expression. This would be the standard vocabulary for all China The pronunciation of the characters would be standardized in such a way that the written and spo-

 Brethren.

The EIks' big circus opened this afternoon for the benefit of the wo- men and children who were not able to go at night. Last night at a meet ing of the general committee of the circus when it was decided that one of the biggest parade's of local organ nations should be made a success by the Elks and their visiting brethren in this city who have been invited to assemble at the E1ks' club in State St. near Lafayette street at o'clock to- night.
 Headed by the Wheeler & Wilson full military band, in regalia, the E1ks about 700 strong will march down State street, to Main and thence to the Bridgeport armory. A number of automobiles will accompany the pa rade bearing the ladies whose escorts are in the parade.
 Exalted Ruler Daniel J. Clifford has ordered the parade and has ar ranged that the committeeman may be dressed in appropriate circus cos tunes.
 All is in readiness within and with out the big armory which has been transformed by the hand of archi- tect, builder and decorator for the monster show. Big boxes are about the arena, comfortable reserved seats are provided and everyone will be seated irrespective of the price of admission paid.
 A full dresS-rehearsal held late in the morning hours to-day disclosed that the performance was one that would run for hours unless the judg- nent of the management was used to curtai1 it to not more than two hours for the main exhibitions. An addi- tional hour will be given in advance to witness the many side-shows which are Enthusiastically arranged about the floor beside and behind the tiers of seats.
 Nothing has been overlooked for the convenience of women and children even to retiring rooms and places where the baby can be slowed away. It is believed that the afternoons will be more attractive to the little ones and performers have been instructed to make their afternoon acts which will be the same as the night per- formance as attractive to the little ones as possible.
