aut occasion to consider th subject.
The relationship of phys’i at training
to mental and moral cu re is recogniz-
ed by all educators. The only ques-
tions at issue between parents and teach-
ers pertain to the amount of time to be
given to physical development, and the
effect upon the scholars of some ques
tionable forms of athletics. There are
modes of exercise and entertainment
and development of the physical powers
which are suitable to iii-door and out-
door Iife, to summer and to winter. In.
door exercise is confined largely to the
appointments of a gymnasium and to
cslisthenics. Outdoor sports include-
base-ball, foot-ball, cycling, rowing,
sailing, swimming, archery, walking,
running, saddle-riding, military tactics,
cricket, lacrosse, skating, coasting, to~
bogganing, wrestling, etc. Allnf these
have their physical and moral dancer-i.
They are to be used Inodcr.It-‘ .3. decent-

in subordination to the mental and the
moral. Instruction in any can -r them

given by competent, polite, and moral
teachers to the exclusion of doubtful
characters of both sexes.
If these arts and sports and means of
exercise, have their dangers. they have
also their merits, their whulvsmne ten-
dencies. General 'WaIker, the political
economist, says that he was cured of
beingaspitfiro by sparring. Amateur
work is wholesome for boys. Physical
labor ’which furnishes spending money
and savings is desirable, even where
there is no financial treasure. lion. S.
J. Powers, ex-lIfeyor of Springfield, has
found that the strength he gained in
folding papers when a train Iiewsboy,
before folding machines were invented,
has been of service to him all his-life.
Incident A. G. Spglding, of the Chic-
the relative value of the different games:
“My special recommendations for
examines as an out of door pastime are,
first, base ball; second, tennis; third,
walking; fourth, foot hall. For in-door
exercises. my judgment approves first,
racquet or handball; second, dumbbelle
and pulley weights; third, sparring;
fourth, fencing.» As there are no two
exactly alike, it is not to be expected
that any one man's judgment will be an
infallible guide. To the young and old
man, I say, Don’t exercise merely as a
duty, if you do, saw wood." '
The American System.
Robert P. Porter before the Commonwealth Club.
In all that goes to make a nation strong
and prosperous; in all that goes to make.
a country great and independent; in all
that goes to broaden the horizon of the
laborer, increase his earnings, cheapen
the coat of what he buys, and improve
his condition; in all this lies the strength
of the protective system. Firm in the
convictions of our leading thinkers, deep.
Iy seated in the experience of the coun-
try, strong in the hearts of the majority
of the deople, and laden with evidences
of its rich fruit, it is not likely the Amer.
loan system, shaped by the same hands
that built the republic, is to be wiped out
for a system originated by the manufac-
turers of Manchester, England, lor the
sole purpose of grinding down the wages
of their mill opera 'ves. And that sys-
tem is now advoc ed squarely by the
President of the United states. Ignor-
ance is no excuse for advocating a sys-
tem that would destroy American in-
dustries and panperlze American labor.
For advocating a system which or.»

Purmatrnu. Jan. li.——'l'ba Record to-
day says that the situation of the Reading
strike remains unchanged, although at one
time yesterday it was thought that arrange-
msnts for a settlement of the miners’ dlfll-
culty were being affected, and that the
preliminaries would be arranged before
night. This report emanated from the fact
that W. T. Iawia, master workman of
lllnm' D. A. No. 135, was in close confer—
ence with General Managar McLeod In tho
Iatter‘a private room at the company’s olllcc.
This meeting was brought about by the letter
Which had beon'sent on Wednesday last to
Modern Corbin and Kain) by the representa-
tives of the minors, in which was stated the
willingness of the minsn‘ delegates to meet
the oiIlclals of the company for the purpose
of arbitration. A messenger was dispatched
to Mr. Lewis at the Windsor hotel shortly
after noon yesterday His cord was sent in
to the general manager, and soon after the
two were closeted for over an hour. At the
conclusion of the interview Mr. Lewis went
directly to his room at the hotel, and do.
clinul to state the purpose of the interview
or the result, merely saying that no change
had been effected, and the condition of the
question remained as before.
It was stated last night by an authority in
the miners strike: “We have every reason to
believe that the action of General Manager
McLeod in sending for Mr. Lewis was to ap-
penso the miners because the communica-
tion from their representatives had been ig-
nor-ed, and to counteract the adverse public
