public should niaUe It tip to women teachcra
In pensions , or higher fcalarlce , , higher even
thin arc paid to men In order that these
slnglo women may then elves provide for
their lonelj old age. This view Is not so
absurd as custom misleads people to think.

merical disparity between male and female
teachers in American schools , but note that

tnarks : 'If ( his be true It may quite possl-

The limitation of pensions to such de
partments ! of the public service as are actu
ally dangerous to life anil limb because of
ph > fcil violence is the crmlcfit form In
which the Idea of pensions has ever ex
isted. Its restrictions savor of that stern
policy of noninterference on the part of the
etato which so long embarraeaed all efforts
to txjften the rigor ofl the pooi luvv and to
amelioratti thu condition of Inmates' ' ot asy
lums and penal Institutions. Out as society
lias ( let doped , the relations of thu state to
the individuals who constitute It have been
txjftcned , and the principle of Injury
through violence na the only basis ot pen
sions has been supeiseded In the broader
Iiumanltarlanlsmi of our dmc.3. Pensions to
judicial olllceis UH In t'ome ttate , do not
proceed upon that hnn > h principle , nor docs
the national gratitude that provides ) for the
soldiers widow and orphans. They proceed
rather upon other prlnc'ples ' , ami It is to
these and not to the piimltlve rule that we
appeal Hut Injuries are Incurred In the
line of school duty. An entire breaking
down of health not Infrequently occurs
After twenty or thirty , ar more , years of
poorly piid bervke the teacher has given
iiioio than an equivalent and 1ms earned a
pension. Herein lies a difference' A pen
sioned soldier , policeman or fireman mav
have been dUabltd before rendering actual
eervlce , Ho la pen"loneil , not for what he
liaa done , but because of his ) noble will to
do , and becjuse of the Injury incurred In

The New York Tribune takes the com-
niencement BCSBOII as a text for a tlmelj
cdltoilal on educational ehamining. Hcfcr-
ence Is had to various Institutions bearing
the title ot college , which are In reality
secondary schoolx It siys :
"Schools are much like people. Social pretence
tenco finds Its counterpart In educational
tihammlug and the commencement season
rarely falls to leave the Impression that
there are ton many colkms and too few
schools. So we noteil wTth peculiar pleas
ure among the commencement reports the
ringing declaration of a sucondaiy school
principal of a neighboring city , in answer
to suggtstlons for his inbtltutlon to ecek a
colli-go charter , tlmt It did not give degrees

logtie.s give onlj a hint of the advance In

may take In the old dispute over the compara.
live merlin of the email and large college ,
he must admit that largo resources are essen
tial to modern higher education It Is also
true that there must bo a teaching body ana
A Rtudcnt body numerous enough to create
a college ntir.osphcro something so entirely
different from the atmosphere of even the
mrwt scholarly and enthusiastic school that
the genaral experience has been that thcv
rarely can be made to exist together A college -
lego which graduates only a handful of men
or women each jear cannot. In the nature of
things , however high Us examination stand
ard , give them the same advantages which
students ha\c In a college of larger equip
ment Still greater IB their dlstdvantagc
when they are the minority part of an In
stitution primarily devoted to preparatory
work.
The public disposition fln this subject Is
becoming more sensible. Mushroom colleges
do not spring up as they usisil to do , but still
there Is much to bo desired Now and then ,
under Iho pita of local neefl , some High
school or academy or seminary will bloo-
som out Into a struggling college. This
plea of giving college education to thoco
who cannot go nway from homo Is , wo
think , a specious one. It may be seriously
questioned If the path to college Is not made
so easy now that many pursue It who might
better have gone straight to work from the
high s"hool Kvcry college has among Its
students groups of townsmen who have no
special aptitude for literary pursuits , but go
to eollegc because thu college Is at their
doori Those who have the aptitude would
In ntno coses out of ten bo able to go awav ,
and It would bo better for them to make an
extra sacrifice to attend a v ell-equipped eol-
logo at a distance Of course , well equipped
Is a relative term No college over has
evorj thing It needs , nml many of them do
admit able service with small resources and
v Ith few courses of study. Hut there is a
well-define I line between the generally recog
nized , though small , colleges of standing
and the schools which keep up frantic
struggles to make the appearance of thnlr
achievements fit thcli pride It will bo a
fortunate day for edutatlon when the true
dignity of the eccomlary bchool Is more gen
erally recognized , ami when It shall never
seem worth while to change a good school

Now the preposition Is to teach the pure

that this style ot calligraphy Is superior foi
hygienic reasons bceausc It requires a mxt'

desk , on the other hand. It Is contended thai
the system leade to freak penmanship and
all sorts ot Idiosyncrasies In writing The
latter > lew Is supported by a local corre
spondent , who Insists that children should be
taught to write so that other people can read
what Is written without the assistance of pro
fessional decipherers The system thai
teaches that kind ot writing Is the old
clerkly roundand ) style , soeallcd. The pleu
for legibility In handwriting Is strengthened
by the following personal testimony : "We
know thu merit of the roundhand style ol
writing from hourly eontact with It In the
dally grist of copy that goes Into the news-
piper hopper While we arc perplexed , and
ottcn tnglorloualy defeated , In our attempts
to read the products offered by vertical

hand Is easily read even though the copy
be extremely unworkmanlike and crude. "

NEW YORK. June 20-Hem y Clews ,
head of the banking house of Henry Clew
& Co. , vvrltesi of the situation In Wai
street :
At times during the week the stock mar
ket showed reactionary symptoms Prices
have undergone n very siubstmitlnl advance
plnoii the1 beginning of the yeat , und mulct
ordinary conditions ficu unllrlng might be
eMH.otcil A seed deal of profit taking re
ally occurred , and some of the meiro In
trepid bear operators ventured putting mil
frc h short lines , but einly with the effeel
of strengthening the market and Increas
Ini , the buyingjiovvei. .
The prestnt situation , however. Is1 o unusual -
usual that ordinary Uamlaids of Judgmenl
must be applied with care It Is it no prlee-
have scored a hand-wine rise , but that doe
not iiu-an that the limit has been reached
We have but Just begun to emerge from
very unusual drawbacks , from n combina
tion of political and economic derangements
Mich ns me only cvpcilinced at raic In
tervals Those who calculate , therefore ,
upon a rise of only ordinary piopoitlon *
me likely to be agreeably dl ippolnted ,
The mnikut hat ; full I v stinted upon nn up-
vviuel course , niul it IM likely to continue
so foi sxmic- time to come , necompanled oi
course by fluctuations and re idlon * Inci
dental to any fair degree of activity.
Thus far Wall Rtreel has merely dis
counted returning piospcrlty. The Improve
ment In business at piesmt Is gieater In
sentiment than In fact The very adoption
of a more cheerful tone | s , however , Ilkc-lv
to become n poweiful nltl to business 10-
vlval Already them are signs of actual
Impiovement New Yoik him been the chic !
center of pessimism , because here the
strain upon credit icsultlng from the silver
crare and trade depression was greatest
Tlili strain has ) utmost disappeared Our
leading bankers alelegalning confidence ;
our most lespoiislble rillioil niiuageis are
very pionouneed In theli bi-llef of belter
times thecom'ng ' fill , those who lead aie
MIDI willing lo lulu the Initiative , mil
many of the HVR | | from which we linvo been
suffering me working out th"ii e > wn coi-
reetlves The crop "Ituatlon Is satisfac
tory Wheat , corn and cotton aie somewhat -
what backward , owing lo low tempeiaturt
nnd excessive molstur.0 , but In spitp ol
drawbacks there is every pie peet of abund
ance In the agricultural sections of thr
country tiade reports aie favorable Mer
chants are In n position to stock up more
freely , anil the fnrmeisi are Gradually get
ting out of debt ; In fict , In some poi tlon
of the west they are in a better condition
Ilnanelally than In many ycaiw Cheap
freights have often more than cotnpensnteil
for low prices
The Industrial situation Is also Improv
ing , and thli Is a factor of Increasing Im
portance to Wall street , in view of out
rapid development In this direction The
Iron trade , genenally conBldeied a fall
business barometer , shows Increasing ac
tivity ; some large orders for pig Iron , bit
lion , etc. hiving been placed at the- west
ern markets , where prices are low , bill
llrm A better demand Is aluo dcvi'loplni :
for staple cotton and woolen goods , nnd
in some Instances a modelato advance In
values has followed Tbe'-e two prominent
Industries are Still In unsatisfactory condi
tion , owing to nn excessive productive c i-
paclty , but It is encouraging to1 note a turn
for the better which promises to be iniln-
tallied
The tariff question will soon be out of the
way , nnd this , accounts very largely foi
the better tone In business eliele-s The
better prospect of cuirencv refcrm and the
abatement of Cuban agitation are nNo en-
ccuraging factors of Importance The cin-
dltlon of our foreign eommerce Is sail -
factory. E\i > orti continue 1 irge , and a1
the rush of Imports to anticipate the tulft
must soon cease , there Is no prospect ol
Impoitant gold shipments The treasury reserve -
serve Is strong , aril before long we "hall
probably be Importing gold , especlilly II
the foreign demand for our securities to-
vlv'es , ns seem * ? not unlikely , foi London Is
bare of our stocks , and opinion over there
Is steadily becoming more favorable.
Personally , I believe In a higher mirket
Reactions may be expected , but they will
bo light , nnd the trend of valges will be
unmistakably upwards for some time to
come , barring , of couise , unforseen dis
aster.

NEW YORK , June 20 A week of actlvltv
and a week of advances has made Wall
street enthusiastic. On nil slde - there Is now
buoyant talk of ImpoEtnnt developments
close at hand which will establish cheerful
ness throughout the business wor'd. In the
week Ju = t clored nwny substantial advances
have b'en scored " "evv stocks have declined
In any consequential ! vay. Le ul'ng tpecula-
Hves , like Sugar trust , Burlington Rock
iRlflnd , St. Paul. Manhattan and Western
Union , have gone up , .nil there has been
stren-th ohovvn In the list of stocks Intrin
sically le'-s valuable bit morquickv respon
sive to manipulation. While "locks have
risen , bond issues have nl o advanced ma-
teilallv. Some Important Issues are up sev
er il points'
On all sides there have Deemed to be evi
dences of new outside Interests In the pe-
cuilty markets For a long time the nuhllc
has been sOiy of Wn'l street , and It Is , a mat
ter of moic than ordinary Intore-st when
there appear to be anv substantial -gns | of
a return of outsiders to speculation
In the advances which have been peered
they wlio have profited most have not been
the biggest or the ablest of the Stock Ex
change operators As a matter of fact , the
talent of the Stock Exchange has piettv
gene-rally bex-n inimical to the market's de
velopment. Some of the brightest traders
on the Stock Exchange , who were In the
movement earlv nnd were thus able to make
rubstantlnl prollls , became soon persuaded
that the pace was too fast , and they there
fore let go nnd began to work for a reac-
They have not accomplished anything to
their own satisfaction Instead of any set-
buck materialising the market has gone for
ward and upward
In many of the parts of the market It
stems to mo that booming has been over
done The best stocks on the list have gone
up under conditions willed may warrant n 1
the advances Rcoreil and further advance"
that may come. But while Uurllncton , St
Paul nnd Rock Inland , Chicago Gas nnd
Sugai trust during recent ivecks have been
buoyant , there h is In each case been nt
leu-it an apparent Intrinsic value nnd that
critainly cannot be claimed for may other
stocks ) that have been Jumped upward
Hocks like Cotton Oil , Colorado Fuel some
of the coal stocks , Grand Island and half a
( tos-en of the sma ler trusts
James R ICeene and Louis V. Bell , now
the foremost operators on the Slock Ex
change , are both credlteil with having re
cently committed thpm" lves lo the Idea that
a icaction was due Both of these- leaders
Imvu an Important follow Inir , their Inllncnct ?
counts continually , and It ll < more' thin or
dinarily Hlgnlllcnnt that In the face of their
reaction Ideas , tlin marke t has iiraceeilenl
further upward. Eventually It Is probable
that Influence exerted liy Filch operators must
bo e-lfectlve Both of thi'se > leaders have * been
on the bill' sldo from the start of the pres
ent market's betterment nnd both , I believe ,
are devoted to the Idea Mint the mnrket Is
likely In the I'liil to develop Into much more
than Its pi i suit ptrenL'th.
Outside iidvlcen which Wall street recelvcH
