Too Much Study.
An exchange comments upon the
physical Inferiority if the pupils of the
schools In th? city in which It Is pub
lished and attributEs the Indisposition
of the boys and niris to take exercise
to over-study. ThcM is something
wrong with the boys and young men who
how no inclination to paitlcipate In tho
sports 'Which develop the muscles and
enliven the spirits. The writer asserts
thut "It ia highly probable that ex
cessive Btudy Is th chief cause
of the deficiency of the, Ktrngth
and vigor, since its tffeet are
invariably such as are found In this
cUBe, particularly a loss of the natural
Inclination for athletics among boys,
and elnce the almost universal tendency
tn schools Is too exact too much of pu
pils. There Is hardly a district or high
school l which the course does not re
quire ftim tc to lour hours of home
study. Only exceptional persons

taining; so many hetus hi severe ap
plication without a n-ilotii loss of
weight, i-tti ii.-'th ami aider."

Tho Woman's Itesctte leiijrtte of
Washington has formally resolved thst
tho bicycle Is a promoter of immorality
and that it is breaking dvvn the hiabh
of women who ride. From tills it is
safe to Infer that the majority of the
members of the league do not look at
tractive when attired in bloomeis or
short skirls.

- nlu - Ha - - K.int8 out -the-fact
that in his tw. nly-two yiars of service
In congress Kichnrd's salary has
amounted to tho sum of Slin.000. It
does seem u liiile strange that a man

thousand dollars In twenty-two years
should be obliged to plead poverty,
lint our contemporary should remem
ber that Washington life offers great
opportunity for a congressman to
part with ready cash, and besides Mr.

railroad puss.
Work of the "Coal Bnron.."
' The coal barons took advantage of this
cold snap to luck on that extra half dollar
on n ton. IMnghamtnn Herald.
The above Is a mild sample of the
Kftns of editorial thought that emanate
from heavy writers on light papers
about the counlry, who class the Penn
sylvania conl operator witli the Turk
ish mid Spanish butchers or In fact
nny other Inexcusable element upon
which editorial ammunition may di
rected when at loss for other subjects
t criticize. It Is a fact well known
by persons who have any knowledge of
the coal business that considering
tho expense and labor attending its
production, anthracite eon I is the cheap
est commodity upon the market today
ntfl would still be so if prices were
Increased far beyond the hopes of the
miner. At the ptesent prices many col
lieries have bt i n operated at little or
no prolit for n nine time past In order
that work mlt;ht be furnished for the
miners.
While it Id unnecessary to waste time
or space in the endeavor to explain the
situation to the writer of the para
graph referred to, it is a pleasure to
note nt (his Instance that the slight
udvanee of prices of coal, which Is a
matter of small conseiUi nee to the con
sumer, means niui h to the business in
terests of this city and the Lackawanna
and Wyoming valleys.
I.et us hope that the "coal barons"
will continue the good work, that our
Industries may keep pace with others
of the hind that are already beginning
to toil the Influence of the confidence
that hits been restored by the prospect
of a return of McKlnley good times.
Among the most amusing features
of the Chicago convention is the dls
pust of the promoters of the enterprise,
who are nlready tired of their visitors.
They were successful lit getting the
convention, notwithstanding New York
bid $20,000 higher for it; but now that
they have it. they find to their chagrin
that it Is nothing better than a silver
Jubilee, in which all other issues are
lost in the Mood of white metal theories
of various shades; and what Is more
to their sorrow, they, who are nil of
them men of sound financial views, will
have to pay a good share of the guar
anty out of their own pockets.
Progress of the Colored Race.
liishop Abrarri Grant, who presided
over the recent conference of the Afri
can Methodist Kpiscopnl chicch in
New York city, asks what race in his
tory, lifted out of slavery and ignor
ance, has given a better account (f
Itself than his race in its th'rty years
of liberty. The bishop, in t1v; Wash
ington Post's opinion, is well qualified
to tipeak of and for the negroes, and
he cites facts that are full of encour
agement to them and to all good citi
zens. No Interest of the whites Is jeop
ardized by the progress of tho blacks.
On the contrary, the best Interests o?
the people In general, of the nation as
a whole, are promoted by the advance
ment of the colored contingent In ed
ucation, morality, and material pros
perity. Tne bishop cites the census tables to
show that, in 1S90, the pure blacks oc
cupied 1,186,174 of the 12.600,1:2 homes
in the United States, and that of thes,
207,616 had been paid for. Ho says the
black men virtually run the agricul
ture of the South, and If whit men
furnish the Fpindles for her cotloa
mills. Hack men furnish the raw ma
terial. In 1SS0 the fouth had 101 tot
ton mills, worklns Cfi7,f;S4 spinuh;!.
Ten ytar3 later the r.umbcr had risen
to iC3 mills ovlth 1.7CG.3C3 iplndhs. Ia
PPI there were 405 mills, with 2,77i,PS7
spindles. The Industrious habits if
the negroes, flishop riant cantlnurp,
mailt that increase possible. It ci r
Ir.lnly could r.ot have occurred if the
cotton had not been produced, rind ne
gro.' I.-.bor is the chief factor in the
produc ti-tn of that staple. In th3 mat
ter of education the 1'ish' p states that
the colored people furnish -"i.O'O tcac'..

"Wo do not ihlnic," adds, our Wash
ington contemporary, "that r.ny stu
dent of history will cue to take v.i
the be bop's challenge to llr.d a lace
whkb, under similar conditions, has
mailt! such prcsross. During the war
the blacks made a mod record on
both sides. In tho South the great
mass if them car;led on the work of
tile families i f their ni.T-.t-ra whil' the
whites were In the rim:,?. In thj
North they entered the I'nion army in
large numbers, and 'the colored troops

shivcs have surpassed the hopes of the
most optimistic In their progress in

CANADA'S NEW PREMIER.
Ottawa Letter In the Times-Herald.
Wilfrid Lanrlt-r has been called "the
McKlnley ef Canada" for his caution nml
lack of anything ilko grand stand piny.
Parliament convenes In July. The ilell
ttlie poliev of the Liberals will not be an
nounced before then. Iiurler will meet
the governor general at nn early date, ami
will advise the course to be pursued. It Is
believed that he will ask for the introduc
tion of a bill providing for reciprocity
with the Pulled States. There may also
be legislation aiming to permanently sepa
rate the church and the state in all politi
cal natters. An Investigation Into rail
road grants ami tho conduct of the Cana
dian Pacific railroad Is almost a certainty.
Hut the new premier will be conservative
in all that he ilo-s, although a Liberal,
lb! is not a blatant man. He does not
leap before be looks, ami he loves Canada
for herself. He has worked steadfastly,
honestly and without coercion or bragga
docio. A better man Canada could scarce
ly have chosen. Mr. Laurler Is the mod
ern typo of a knlgnt without fear nnd
without reproach. Not even the bitterest
of bis enemies have been able to discern
a dark spot In the whiteness of his private
character. They have called him "wav
ering," "Indefinite," "emotional," nrd
have nllnded to his "r.osinine optimism,"
but they could do r.o worse. To deny
Mm loyally and truth, wit and power nml
sincerity, were to deny that the sun
shines or that the sk- is sometimes blue.
li !l II -Wilfred
Laurler Is today the foremost
orator In Canada. His accent In slight
ly t rci.ch, hiti diction exquisite, ami his
command of language remarkable. He Is
intuitive and swift as, a woman, with the
man's force nnd logic nr.d the lawyer's
shrew'ness. lint whether In the house
or In the campaign, or In private dispute,
Mr. Laurler is always first and foremost.
A Ttoland for Oliver it is often his to
give, but always courteous Is the baek
thrust. no matter how coarse or craven
the initial cat may have been. Mr. Laur
ler Is a Canadian of good tttock. liis

La Nouvelle France. , He was educated
nt Alcc;il! university in Montreal, whence
he graduated In 1.-11, nntl studied law, be
ing called to the bar In PC Since then
hit has been a successful lawyer, editor
ami politician. Mr. Laurler the wi.l be
Sir Wilfred soon, the honor of knlghlhOD.l
being offered always to the preml'T) Is a
lull, slender man. singularly young look
ing for his fifty-odd years. I Hi fnce Is
clear-cut, prlo and smoothly shaven, his
hair dark and wavy above a wide anil tin
furrowed brow, his eyes txt once keen nnd
soft, of the gray of the good marksman
cud the steadfast friend. That he has
been named "the silver tniigued" Is no
mero figure of speech. Ills voice is plneu
lariy clear and musical tin masculine
prototype of 0arr,h Pernhardt's. He is a
generous host nnd dispenser of hospital
ity. In this he Is ably assisted or, rather,
led by Madame LaiMir.
I! !l II
Of their marriage there is a wholesome
romance. When, twenty-eight years old,
the beautiful '.w La Fontaine, belle of
Montreal, and ilauehter of Wealthy par

young lawyer, Wilfred. Laurler, people
shook their heads over tho very bad
