Daniel O'Lenry, tlio mysterious "Hill" burglar, seems to have been working - m An Urgent Need. Crowdacl to Its uttermost limits, the Lackawanna hospital last week hud to Bend a number of young convulesconta Into private housrs in order to keep tli. 'in out nt i hi :iy of n diphtheritic enso developed among Its Inmates. Tho iH.Mntlnn of this diphtheritic patient was nccomrll-hfd successfully, thanks to capable management, but not with out great Inconvenience and a degree of risk to the other patients which should not occur In a well-regulated hospital. This circumstance vividly emphasizes tho Lackawanna hospital's need of a contagious ward. Had such a ward Ken Jn readiness last week, the pa tient suffering from diphtheria could promptly have been transferred Into It without dlillculty or peril and the usual minlBtiatlons of the hospital could have pi acceded without friction or Jar. A hospital ivcclvlng the number and variety of patients which the Lacka wanna hospital receives, and deMnned to serve tho multitudinous wants of a complex population having literally no other free refuge In time of accident or sudden disability, Is sorely handi capped by the lack of a separate apart ment for the reception of victims of L'otitaclmi'i diseases. The continued absence of such an apaitnient in tho case of an Institution supported largely b public contributions Is a severe re flection upon the benevolence of the community. It indicates a neglectful public sentiment which, In Its practical effects upon hospital work, Is as bad ns a sentiment of hostility would be. AVo understand that the directors of the Lackawanna hospital are consider ing tho advisability of purchasing enough property In the Immediate vicinity of the hospital to enable them to fit ill) properly a contagious ward such ns Is required by tho necessities of the hospital's work. If an affirma tive decision shall be reached it will mean an appeal to the community for financial help. The ward Is needed for the community's good. No invest ment which bcnovolenco could make would perform a more useful or a moro timely service. - Credit where credit is due. Georgia has actually permitted a negro ravlsher to be sentenced to death by due pro cess of law. School Savings. Fourteen years ago last March tho experiment of collecting small sums of money from school children to bo placed to their credit as savings deposits was Instituted In tho schools of Long Island City, X. Y upon the Initiative of J. II. Thlry. As the parent of this admlr able idea, Mr. Thlry has watched its growth with special interest, and he has favored us with a table of statis tics showing tho dimensions of the school savings bank movement on Jan. 1, ISM. On that dato school banking was in pratTlco in 351 schools, distrib uted throughout S9 cities or villages and 14 states of the Union; the total deposits were $019,217.01, tho amount withdrawn was $441, 823.83, and the bal ance due. $207. 4211S. an Increase over the balance duo on Jan. 1, 1S9S, of $27, 7C9.16. In Mr. Thiry's table seven schools In Scranton are represented. School No. 19, Josephine D. Lees principal, was tho first of tlo local schools to open a sav ings account, the date of Its Institution being Dec. 7, 1897. On Jan. 1 last of 697 registered pupils 330 were deposit ors, their total deposits having been $S70.99. of which but $20 had been with drawn. School 32, II L. Morgan prin cipal, befiun Jan. 17, 189S, and had on Jan. 1 last, $63.31 on deposit, represent ing 136 depositors out of a total regis tration of 39C. There had been no with drawals. KIght days later School 13, David Owens principal, opened a sav ings account and at the date of Mr. Thiry's report there was a total de posit of $WC20 and a total withdrawal of $100, representing the savings of 323 pupils out of an enrolled attendance of 523. School 27, J. II. Hawker prin cipal, began March 28, 189S, and had at date of reckoning $323.73 on deposit, tho savings of 1C9 out of D7G enrolled pupils. School 30. Maggie O'Donnell principal, began the first day of last October and In three months had $116.33 on deposit, the savings of 221 out of 342 registered pupils. School 9. W. l. Graves prin cipal, began Oct. 3 last and had, on Jan. 1, $S7.G6, belonging to 119 among 269 pupils. School 23, J. J. Costello prin cipal, began Oct 10 and by the end of tho year had $74. 2S, belonging to 103 of 250 pupils. The total deposits for theso seven Scranton schools, Jan. 1 last, was $2,431.77, nn average deposit of $1.71. Tho withdrawals averaged less than 9 cents for each of tho 1,423 depositors. Writing of the merits of this feature of school work, Mr. Thlry well says: "The great object of education Is the enlargement of the mental powers and final results In the character. Unless school life makes pupils morally better, stronger and more wisely qualified to successfully share in uwaltlng activ ities, It Is unworthy of tho name. To a stranger about to become Us citizen, a country reveals its laws, customs and all else of established character and essential to the exercise and fullest In tegrity of citizenship. To this know), edgo the stranger ha3 an acknowl edged claim. The world Is new to a child. He 1ms entered the 111 st stages of cltlzensh'p, and is entitled to con stant, safe and wisest guidance and Instruction until he reaches Independ ence at maturity. To permit, not to say, require, him to find his way by ex perimentation, the sowing of wild oats, obtaining knowledgo of the devil's weapons to fight evil this Is the refine ment of cruelty, It Is a crime. A civil ization w.hlch leaves tho young to choose their own course and pursue It at will Is yet primitive. A child is en titled to know what longer observation hns tnujht older people. Tho lessons of experience, what laws of conduct lead to greatest welfare, what physical laws determine health, what natural laws conserve security, what civil and political laws protect his person and promote his social happiness, what economic laws govern tho ptoductlon of value, whatever of law and truth that Is essential to his Intellectual, moral and physical weir being theso he has a right to know Ho is, there tore, cntltleJ to discipline, restraint, caution, guidance ami control.for 'there by his second untitle of habit Is created. Mora specifically, he Is entitled to know the value of frugality and to bo suitably trained In Its practical exer cise." Mr. Thlry likes the pilnclple of thu law lately cnarted in Belgium, whore by every child born In designated local ities, after being officially registered, has a hank nrcnunt opened In Its name with the savings bank. The authorities dcppslt one franc to the credit of tho child and pass tho bank book, to the parents, who may add to, but not with draw from, the account during the life of the child. Tho accrued Interest is the property of the young deposilur. While this kind of a law Is not feasible In tho United Stntes, the same result Is accomplished by means of the school savings fund, and those who are In troducing this pi. ict leal element into public school woik arc entitled to gen erous praise. Tammany's position Is for tho antl prlze lighting law but against its enforcement. Room at the Top, The Pennsylvania Railroad company not only Is the largest Institution of Its kind In the world and tho most Intelligent and liberally conducted, but It Is also one of the most effective business object lessons with range of the public's vision. The kind of men whom It employs in places of re sponsibility, tho kind of service which It exacts from them and tho kind of tewards which It bestows upon ex ceptional merit all are worthy of pub lic study and all have a far-reaching Influence for good upon the commercial life of our time. The Pennsylvania railroad company Is quietly but surely I entrenching the merit system in num erous directions where, but for Its ex emplary lnlluence, the demoralizing system of pulls and steals would con tinue unchallenged. The latest Instance of the Pennsyl vania Railroad company's practical ap preciation of merit w-hen conspicuously displayed by one of Its employes was supplied by tho selection of Alexander Johnson Cassatt to succeed the late Frank Thomson ns president of tho road. Mr. Thomson had worked his way up In the company's service from the position of an errand boy; Mr. Cassatt. having had the advantage of a technical education, began relatively somewhat higher, as a rodman on the surveying corps. But both revealed In their successive respective positions, In addition to the personal virtues which this company requires of all Its em ployes, a certain distinctive genius for management; and the consequence was that both rose from plane to plane Justnboutasfast as opportunities offer ed, There was no other pull about It, either, than tho pull of commanding fit ness. They did so well what they had to do, In position after position, that their promotion became from the company's standpoint a business neces sity. They made room at the top. Mr. Cassatt, perhaps better than any other railroad manager now living, comblneD theoretical with practical knowledge. As a civil and mechanical engineer he knows tho formulae of rail roading and as a man who has "been through tho mill" ho knows thoroughly Its business aspects. Ho is peculiarly competent to bound the business on nil sides, and that Is exactly why, among the hundreds of ambitious rail way men In the United States aspiring for promotion, ho in particular was chosen to fill the most Influential and honorable executive office In American railroading. Some persons say and Imagine they believe that the day of Individualism is over; that men no loncer advance by virtue of their own qualities, but adventitiously, through luck or borrowed Influence. Some men may bo helped by luck and others by pull; but if you study the great suc cesses you will find back of all luck and pull the Indispensable factor of personality. There Is room at the top In abundance for those honestly cap able of filling It; for the simple reason that they make room there. The number of congressmen who were "for Henderson all along" doubt less come3 to the Iowan ns a revela tion. Nicaragua Canal Progress. The report of the Walker commission which has recently completed Us inves tigation of the Nicaragua canal con tains two estimates of the cost of tho work remaining to bo done on this canal. Admiral Walker, the chairman of tho commission, nnd Professor Haupt calculato that $118,113,790 will bo required; and Colonel Hnlns, the third member, computes the sum at $131,818, 308. Inasmuch as the Ludlow commis sion's estimate was In the same neigh borhoodnamely, $133,472,593 It would appear a reasonable expectation that tho canal could bo built for $150,000,000. But even though tho excess of actual over estimated expenses, which has al ways to be allowed for In enterprises of this magnitude, should carry the total up to $200,000,000, publlo opinion would still sanction the outlay. Something, of course, remains for the new commission, which the president has appointed under tho authority of the last congress, to do in tho way of revising theso estimates and re-can-vasslng with care nnd detail all the engineering features of the work; nnd there Is also need of an expert opinion as to tho comparative advantages and disadvantages of the Panama project, which contrary to tho general supposi tion has not yet been abandoned. But from tho layman's standpoint thoro would seem to lift the greater need Just now of an Impartial and comprehenstvo estimate of tho probable receipts of a trans-Isthmian canal, whether built at Greytown or at Panama. While at best this could only be conjectural and subject to material modification by the Intervention of unforeseen contingen cies, yet the Importance of having even a conjoclurnl estimate, If made con scientiously after thorough digestion of nil available data, is very manifest, The canal may cost ono hundred mil lions or It may cost twice that sum, but tho essential point Is, what Income would It produce? Convinced as thn American people are that the canal has become, so far ns their naval and strategic Interests nro concerned, a national necessity, they nro willing to vole tho money for Us construction, be tho cost under or above the avciage of tho available es timates. This does not imply that they arc reckless with their money or that they underrate tho necessity of having adequate data before going ahead; it only Implies that they are unwilling to let a dlffcicnco of opinion of a quarter or a third as to the necessary expense opernto to defeat the project entirely. Hut having extinguished from their minds all doubt n3 to the canal's neces sity, they are now chiefly Interested In ascertaining an approximate Idea of tho canal's likelihood to produce revenue. Hiving located the factor of cost within the limit of their ability to pay, they want now to locato the pos sibilities of enrnlng a commercial re turn from the Investment, aside from the canal's value In naval strategy. To this subject the new commission is expected to give great attention. There Is a growing sentiment c6m mendatory of General Otis for his re fusal to engage friendly Filipinos as Boldleis In tho United States army. While tho Malay might under ceitaln conditions be madu useful In this way, It Is evident that the time has not yet anived. Experience has shonn that the average Filipino with warlike In stincts Is like a rattlesnake, easier to handle when his fangs have been ex ti acted. Good Filipinos who wish to serve the nation should bo content to carry water for a few months longer and allow tho white soldiers to do tho shooting. It Is to bo hoped that General Gomez will carry out his announced intention of visiting tho United States. He has his faults but there is enough of honor and horse sense In him to make him worthy of the respect which tho Cubans Just now appear to be disinclined to show him. It Is a good sign that General Otis takes no chances of being caught with his powder moist. Tho use of diplo macy on Aguinaldo will be all the moro effective for re-enforcement by well prlmed guns.
