J. STICIU.ING MORTON does not know

Tim proposal that congress shall
make a liberal appropriation for con
tinuing and enlarging the education of
Europeans in Iho use of American corn
for food is worthy of serious considera
tion , though there is very little prob
ability that the proposed appropriation
can bo secured from the present con-
press. The effort that has boon mode
to introduce corn to the tables of Euro
peans nmy not IMVO mot with as good
success as was hoped for , but this is no
reason why the campaign of education
should bo abandoned , and it. is vary
likely to bo unless congress docs some
thing to keep it up. The Kin all demand
for our corn in comparison with what
was uxpoctod , In view of the short crops
in Europe , is somewhat disappointing ,
but wo should norsuvoro in the effort to
convince Kuropoans that it Is the pat
of practical wlbdom to learn to use corn
as food for themselves. It is a labor
that Is pretty sure to yield mutual bene
fits if persisted in.
AN EXPOSITION to celebrate the dis
covery of America will bo hold at
Genoa , the birthplace of Columbus , from

called the Italn-Amorican exhibition ,

generous exhibit from the United Staten ,
ns certainly there ought to bo. la the
arrangements ns originally made itVIIB

provision lias boon made for giving for

Au this exposition will bo for six inonthe
a center of attraction for all the people
, ofItaly , nnd will draw many thousandfa
from other European couiltrlan , it wouli
sooiu to present an excellent oppor

In the net of congress in nld of the
Columbian exposition the president , is
empowered and directed to hold a naval
cviow in Now York harbor In April ,
8M ! , and to extend to foreign nations an
nvilatlon to send ships of war to join
ho United States navy In rendezvous
at Hampton Roads and proceed thence
o said rovlow. It has boon feared that
ho proposed review would bo imperilled
> y reason of the ommlsslon to provide
or it in the current navy appropriation
)111 , but Senator IJ.tnlol \Mrglnia will
omorrow introduce In the senate an
amendment to the bill appropriating
$ . ' 100,000 for the expanses of the review
and Iho entertainment of the nation's
guosls who will accompany the forotgn
loots. The absence of the Hem from
, ho navy appropriation bill is explained
iy tlio fact that it was not Included in
Secretary Tracy's estimates , on which
ho bill is based , whllo the secretary
irosuma'jly ' omlltod it because loglsla-
Ion demanding extraordinary appro
bations of this kind , originating out-
ido of the department , is not habitually
> rcsontcd in Iho nnnual estimates.
The appropriateness of celebrating the
llscovory of America by some sort of
nnrltimo display will not bo questioned ,
and there is every reason to expect that
ho proposed naval review will bo one of
the most notable and memorable events
of the kind the world has known. It is
thought that many of the presidents of
Vmuricnn republics and the reigning
sovereigns of sovornl European nations
vlll como with their navies , and it is
said to bo particularly desired that the
{ ing of Italy and the queen regent of
Spain ohall participate in the core-
nonlcs. But whether thcso particular
expectations are realized or not , the
oviow will undoubtedly bo one of the
grandest in naval history. The United
stales will bo able to mule a a most cred-
table display. The Navy department
expects to have in commission thirty-two
vessels besides the wooden ships of the
lavy. The oruisor Now York , as well
is the vessels of the white squadron ,
will bo in the roviow. The Puritan ,
Monterey , Amphitrito , Miantonomnh ,
Monadnock and Terror , ships unsur-
itidsod in their class , will bo present , as
will also bo the Montgomery , Detroit
ind Maohlas , and there will bo a num-
jor of gunboats and torpedo boats. It is
suggested that a reproduction of the
Sant-i Mnrin , the llagship of Columbus ,
jo constructed to lead the naval proces
sion.
It is proposed that certain vessels of
the foreign navies should bring to
Hampton Roads and thence to Now
York these distinguished visitors who
nay como to this country to sco the ox-
position. The fleet of American and
'oroign vessels will sail along the At-
.antic coast to Now Yorlc , with perhaps
a visit to Mount Vernon , before leaving
the Potomac. The grand review will
[ ) o held in Now York harbor , and after
wards the lleotp may visit Boston , Phila
delphia and other eastern or southern
l > orts. It has been suggested that if the
review wcro held at a later date than
April the coroinony would probably bo
moro enjoyablo. but as the World's ' fail-
will open in May and it is not dojirablo
that ihoro bo any counter-attraction to
draw people away from the exposition ,
it will doubtless bo decided to hold the
naval review at the time already desig
nated. That the pageant will form one
of the most lilting , picturesque and
effective tributes to the voyage of M02
Ihoro can bo little doubt , and it will
have a practical and moral value to the
country that will largely overbalance
the post. It is presumed that there will
bo no serious opposition to the necessary
appropriation.
TUB SECltKT Of LONG LIFK.
Edward Everett Halo has celebrated
liis 70th birthday. IIo is as vigorous in
body and in mind as many men not yet
50. His life has been filled with assidu
ous labors , but his hair and board are
scarcely touched with the gray of old
ago. IIo has the stoop of the sludont
and the inattention to personal adorn
ment of a grandfather , but in no other
particular does ho scum to have been
marked by his years. In speaking of
his well preserved health at the celebration -
bration in honor of his 70th anniversary
ho Bummed up tno philosophy of it in
these words : "First , never do anything
yourself that you can make others do for
you ; secondly , never bother yourself
about who gets the credit for what is
done ; thirdly , liavo all your work done
by 3 o'clock in the afternoon and then
go larking about enjoying yourself. "
There is a vein of exaggeration and
satire in thoio three rules , of course , for
Edward Evurott Halo is noted for the
prodigious amount of work ho does for
himself and ho does not expect othora to
knock oil from work promptly ut li
o'clock. Ho means rather that a man
should not wo.u- himself out upon unim
portant details when those can ba per
formed by others just a * wall and ut loss
ist. For instance , ho has long since
learned that an amanuensis with a
typewriter can make more "copy" for
publication uftor an hour of dictitlon
than lip could wrilo out in his cr.unpod
long hand in Inlf a day. Ho moans ,
also , that moil should so nrrango their
labors as to give thorn the morning
hours , following refreshing sloop , and
should complete their dutias for tlio day
in time to mnko sure of some recreation
in Iho open air. Tlio differing occupa
tions and the varying conditions of em
ployment should , in his judgment , adapt
themselves in some way to give the
toilers rest and recreation every day.
The .second rule is ono which it would
ba well if every wigo-oariior ; , profes
sional man , or mun of business should
adopt. Many men waste a vim amount
of nerve faroo in striving to roooivo
credit for work they hnvo performed ,
which credit would bo awarded as a
nmttor of eaurso except for the olforts
put forth to secure it , Employes with
ambitions are rot Infrequently hindered
in the performance of their duties by
this strange notion that somehow they
must oimiluidl/.o the value of their
services , their loyalty , or their own
abilities by forcing upon their employ
ers certificates of character written ,
oral or pantomime. They forgot thai
the ohoun advortlbomont of the quack
does not provo his skill as a physician.
Hut there are also some able , suuuussfu !
nnd gunorous , who fret lost their work
may be accredited to others. It is to
hose In particular that Mr. Halo ro-
ors. Ho has lived long enough to know
bat ultimate history is trno to real
aino and exposes the charlatan.
These three rules would save head
aches and worse wearinesses to weary
non and women. They would prolong
Ifo to con In 9 , and the light would ro-
, aln its brilliancy to the declining years.
They would give to men and woman the
icallh and happiness which is now sac
rificed to oyorwork and ovorworry.
They would brighten the homos of the
poor and Iho rich , and they would mnko
is all better and happier. Gladstone ,
Von Moltkc , Whlttler , Tennyson , Bis-
narck , nnd scores of others who Imvo
novod the thought of the whole world ,
earned the value of these maxims , and
.holr testimony now boars out Iho im-
wrtanco of the theory that prolonged
ifo with healthful vigor , of mind nnd
) ody , seldom comes to intemperate ,
rrasclblo and discontented mun and
women. Outdoor exorcise and joyous
clsuro , coupled with regular working
lours , contribute to this hoalthfulucs of
jody nnd mind , which enables men of
nark to march through a long Hfo of
tscfulncss , doing a vast amount of work
and realizing at the and the comfort" of
a well spent existence.
IWltKAU OP AMKItlOAN HBI'UIIMCS.
CongrcHS has boon asked to make an
ippropriatlon for maintaining the
Bureau of American Republics , and
several commercial bodies In the east
liavo passed resolutions favoring such
an appropriation. That a is strong op
position to It among the democratic
members of the house , the majority of
whom , for purely partisan reasons , have
no sympathy with the object of the
bureau , which was organized to promote
closer relations between the United
States and the republics of the western
liomlsphoro , and as a medium of information
mation to our own people regarding
financial and business conditions in
these countries doomed to bo important
and valuable. The bureau was the out
come of the pan-American conference ,
and therefore a feature of the compre
hensive scheme for broadening and ren
dering moro intimate the intercourse
between American republics. It was to
bo sustained by contributions of all the
countries interested. It was designed
to bo nn aid to the reciprocity policy ,
and it is fairly claimed for it that it has
been helpful in this respect ,
The annual report of the first year's
work of the bureau , recently issued , fur
nishes satisfactory evidence of the value
of such nn agency for the enlargement
of commercial dealing between this
count'-y and its sister American repub
lics , ns well as of the doimuul for such
work here and elsewhere. A vast
amount of information has boon col-
looted and distributed by the bureau
upon the banking , tariff , currency ,
weights nnd monsurcs , commercial
usages , manufactures , commerce nnd
postal arrangements of the countries
which severally participate in the work
of the bureau , having a combined popu
lation of 50,000,0)0 : ) other than the United
States. There can bo no question of the
varied importance of the effects of the
new intorcst which the bureau has been
largely instrumental in stimulating ; and
in view of tlio possible great extension
of our commerce , to which the work of
the but can directly contributes , the cost
of maintaining it is slight.
It would bo a mistake to discontinue
the Bureau of American Republics at
this timo. The effect of doing so would
bo damaging to the cause of reciprocity.
The severing of such a link of inter
course between the United States and
the other American republics for the
paltry consideration of a few thousand
dollars would create an unfavorable im
pression in these countries as to our in
torcst in reciprocity. Furthermore ,
European nations are understood to have
taken stops to establish similar bureaus ,
and for this country to abandon the
work now would bo to directly encour
age and assist the plans of European
governments to counteract the inlluorco
of the United States in the commercial
affairs of this hemisphere. No partisan
considerations should liavo any bearing
in this matter , though unquestionably
the opposition to the bureau is largely
prompted by partisan feeling. The
question of maintaining the bureau
touches the commercial interests and
welfare of all the people and of all sec
tions , nnd it ought to liavo the support
of men of all p.irtios.

The munificent gift of SoOO,000 recently
made by Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan of Now
York to the trade schools of that city
recalls attention to the liberal contribu
tions of wealthy mon to thoeuubo of edu
cation , prominent among which are
these of Leland Stanford , John V ) .
Rockefeller and Mr. Drexel of Phila
delphia. The gift of Mr. Morgan , though
not no munificent us these of some others ,
will bo the moans of accomplishing
great good , because it provides for the
permanent endowment of nn established
system of schools whirh ; has already
proven its usefulness.
The Now York trade schools were
founded ton yearn ago and opened with
thirty pupils in attondanco. This month
they grunted diplomas to o'21 young
artisans. For a time they had u hard
battle uguinstu vigorous nnd dmorminod
opposition , but year uftor year they
grow in public attention ana interest ,
nnd for several years their -juccosd lias
been assured. They met a demand
which In this country hud been growing
steadily more urgent , that is fur the
moans and opportunity to obtain a
technical education which are donlea tea
a largo proportion of American boys In
the regular way. In these schools both
tbe principles and the practice of vari
ous trades are taught , and it is signifi
cant of the dnmnnd for such education
that since the time of their establish
ment .1,700 young men , well trained and
oqulppod artisans , have boon graduated
from thorn.
The problem of technical education
in this country will nvidunlly have to ba
solved by schools of this kind and unn-
suquontly there is no channel into
which man of wo.ilth can mora wlsnly
or with bolter assurance of Iwiollclal
resultsdirocttheir philanthropy. Such
Institutions as that fjuti.loa by M.- .
Drexel in Philadelphia will do u work
for tlio improvanrjiit , oluvatlon and
Independence of American youth of the
T
highest possiblcrvaluo , and It would bo
n great thing ToTlho future of the coun
try If In ovojy city there were trade
schools modeled after those In Now
York. Then ! is not n largo city in the
country whoifi such schools would not
bo u prolltuhTo enterprise und they
would open tho. way to thousands of
young mon toWjulp themselves for ob
taining u usofulr nnd honorable living
who are now du-Jftlug along In almost
hopeless uncertainty regarding their
future. j i ?

Cremation is gradually making its
way Into the customs of the people of
this country. Like electrocution the
sensational newspaper reports of the
'first experiment made in America in
1870 , with the body of Baron von Palm ,
caused a most revolting sensation.
Within the past decade a marked
reaction has taken place in public sontl-
mont nnd crematories are no longer un
common. At this time there are fourteen -
teen crematories In the United States ,
located as follows : Washington , Lan
caster , Philadelphia and Plttsburg ,
Pa : , Baltimore , Cincinnati , Detroit ,
Atlanta , Davenport , Los Angolcs ,
Buffalo , Troy , Watorvlllo , N. Y. ,
Fresh Pond , Long Island , near Now
York nnd Brooklyn. A crematory Is now
in course of construction nt Sun Antonio ,
und others are to bo built at Chicago ,
Cleveland , Milwaukee and Boston.
The Fresh Pond crematory moro than
cleared oxnenscs last year und n Phila
delphia society disbursed over $7o,000
during 18)1. ! ) Recently a society called
the " ' "
"Worklngmon'sCromutlon society ,
has boon founded in Newark , N. J. . and
at its last mooting twenty-seven uppll-
cations for membership were iilod.
Many prominent Americans liavo within
a few years past directed that their re
mains bo incinerated. Only u few
months ago the remains of Charles D.
Drake , u former bonator from Maryland
und for yours chief justice of the United
States court of claims , were cremated ut
Oakvlow cemetery , Baltimore. Mani
festly cremation is rapidly gaining
ground in this country , ana ut no distant
day every largo city will hnvo ono or
moro crematory establishments.
BKAUTltT TllK SCHOOL GROUNDS.
Oumhu has an investment of fully
82,000,000 in school grounds und school
buildings. Up to this time , however ,
our boards of education Imvo limited
their efforts tq the purchase of conven
ient sites und the erection of school
houses constructed with duo regard to
the convonioneq.tomfort ! and health of
pupils und toneho-a. ( It seems to us thut
wo huvo reached a stage in the city's
growth that justifies n reasonable ex
penditure for beautifying the school
grounds. Thoro' Is something inspiring
in luwns , flower beds und shrubbery on
the plots surrounding our school build
ings. The bnrren sand banks and un
couth school yards are evidence of u lu-
montublo want pf hrift und tuste.
It goes without sayincr that no city in

Different Stories of the Existing Condition

SOME LITTLE FIGHTING HAS BEEN DONE

NRW YOIIK , Anrll 10. The Kcd line steam
ship 1'hlladolphla arrived nl her dock In
Brooklyn toduy from La Gunyrnwhich place
she lotl on April 0 , and brought the Informa
tion of a battle between the government
forces and iho rovolullonlsU nl TruJUIo ,
Vcnezuoln. it. M. liarlloll , socrotnry of the
Unlloa tilnlos legation nt Cnrncaswni n pas
senger on iho Philadelphia. Ho is on n alxly
days' Icnvo of absence nnd Is going lo bis
homo nl lioslon.
Among the passengers wasCnrloa H , Brun ,
who Is thoroughly conversant with affairs | j
Venezuela. Mr. Brun said thai business
was almost nl n standstill nt Caracas on ao-
count of Iho disturbed condition of the coun
try. What follows Is the substance of what
bo said :
A llorco battle look place between the gov
ernment forces and the rebels on March 29 ,
nt a plucocalled TruJIHo. aooui-100 kilometers
from Caracas , in which ll wiw reported Ibut
150 wore killed nnd a largo number wounded.
The government forcoi were under command
of General Clprlano Costrl , nnd were sent
out Inlo iho country to break up n gathering
of ihe rebels. Tlio revolutionists bad boon
concentrating nVTruJlllo , aud were under
command of General Aranjo. The govern-
inont forces had 'iiado n forced march and
came upon iho rebels In Iho morning. A
struggling lira Immediately commenced. Tbo
rebel.i were sllghily superior In numbers ,
but wcro greatly dollclonl In dUclpllno and
equipment. Being badly organized the
rebels fought from behind trees , rocks nnd
olhor points of vaulago , nnd kept up nn
Intermittent flro.
The government forces mndo a chnrgo mid
drove iho rebels from behind their sLcllor.
Tbo latter ngnln rallied hi a piccu of woods
und , exhorted by Aranjo.ma'.lo u stubborn re
sistance.
Sruttorud lliu ItclinU ,
After firing for an hour tbo government
forces were ordered to penetrate the woods
and clear out iho rebels , ll was nl this
point tbo Hottest llghling wns done , nnd tlio
government forces were repulsca , but again
rallied und , owing to their superior dis
cipline and arms , were ablu to scalier the
rebels.
Tbo latter fled in all directions and left tbo
troops under Costrl victorious. It was said
that the rebels numbered several hundred ,
und from Iho coulllcllng reporls thai roaehcd
Caracas as lo Iho number killed , il was
Ihougbl that Iho battle was a victory for tbo
troops of I'alacio.
Altairs in Vone/.oulii nro in a stale of nn-
archy from Iho facl Ibat there Is al present
no constitutional covorumonl. The lerm of
I'alacio as president expired on l-'obrunry 20 ,
and Ihero has been no election for u'now
president. Pulnclo retains bis position as
head of Iho governmenl Illegally and by
force. Any report lhat Iho Irouble In
Voncznula has ooon settled arises from ignorance -
noranco or a willful parvnrsion of facts.
The lorm of president of Venezuela was
formerly Iwo years , nnd no president could
succeed himself. Palacio. desiring to pro
long hia power , got congress to make the
term of president four years , wilu. cllgtbillly
lo succeed himself. This was done , bul not
to talto eflcci until after Palncio's term. The
latter clause thwarted Palaclo's ambition ,
and Ihon followed Iho quarrel between
Palacio nnd the congress , tuo court of ap
peals nnd Iho supreme court.
In Iho meantime. 1'alacio't term as presi
dent expired In February nnd no election has
been held or can be bold in tno present con
dition.
Tells Illllvrcnt Story.
Captain Chambers of Iho Philadelphia told
another "lory. Ho donicd entirely the re
porls that Uicro has been n civil war and
Koncral insurrection In Venc/uela. "Tho
Philadelphia , " ho said , "lay for llvo days In
Ibo harbor of Pubcrio Cabollo and llvo days
ntCurai'oa. Allcrw.u-ds
wo paid n return
trip to each port. Kvoryttung in Vono/.uela
was perfectly quiet , in fact , all Ihings con
sidered , 1 never know of the counlry being
in a moro tranquil condition. "
Tbo Philadelphia brought considerable
mail from Venezuela and Uoma Paez , Iho
Venezuelan consul , received n number of
letters and ofllclal bulletins. Tbe consul re
ceived a communication from General Luis
Level de Goaa , Venezuelan minister lo
Franco , in which ho slates , by order of
'
Palacio , that peace will soon bo 'established
and that Ihoro remains only small armed
factions in Iho state of Los Andes and
another in the suite of Arauguo. All tba
resl nro ul peace. The minister's loiter con
cludes wllh Iho statement thai Ibo host
proof that peace prevails is tbo fact lhat ho
intends to sail for Franco within a month lo
assume bis ministerial functions there. Tbo
olllcial bulletins received by Iho consul give
Ihe government reporls of several bngugc-
inonts oeUveon iho govornmenl forces nnd
the insurrectionists , bul most of these re
ports are iiidellnite. A translation of ono of
Iho messages read :
"Tho national government has received
notice ( Anril 8) ) of n light ul Sau Sebaslion ,
between the robots under the traitor Humon
Uuorrn and tbe covernmout forces under
General lines. It Is bollovod that the gov-
nrnmont forces were surprised by tbo roboli
