"The act," he explains, "deals only with chlldien under sixteen yeais of age, and of these only with tho unfor tunate and the cirlng. By Its terpis It applies to 'dependent or neglected' chil dren and 'delinquent' children. The first class, tho act says, shall include any child who Is destitute or homeless, or abandoned, or dependent upon tho public for suppoit, or who habitually begs, or whose home, bj- leason of neg lect or ciuclty or dcpi.uity of the par ents, is an unlit place for a child, or any child under eight jears of ago found peddling on the stieet. A 'delin quent' child, tho act cays, shall mean n child who violates any law of tho state or any oidlnance. The couit's jurisdiction may be Invoked by a peti tion which must allege that tho child theieln icfeiicd to is cither dependent or neglected or delinquent. Upon the filing of the petition tho judge may issue eithoi a summons or a wairant. The former requites tho party having the custody of the child to produce It in comt; the latter imposes the duty of biinglng the child into couit upon tho officer aimed with tho wairant." As a mattoi of fact, the judge con tinues, eiy few cases aie bi ought Into court upon summons oi wairant. "Tho police aie constantly turning over to tho Childi on's Aid society and similar organizations chlldien who have no homes or caretakei s. These chlldien find their way into tho juvenile couit. Then each cas,e is caiefuliy inquhed into. The judge has the assistance of the piior examination into the facts of each case by the society and Its agents. Sometimes the power of the comt is imoked to compel the atten dance of iclatlves or even ot patents. After a c.tielul healing the ea&e of each child Is decided and a decieo made. The testimony ho.ucl is taken down by a stcnogiaplici, and then typo wiitten, and Hied for fututo icfeience, If the judge is satirfled that the patent or patents of a child ought not to lmo tho custody of the child, but are able to contiibuto to its suppoit, ho may make an oider requiting tho payment of such sum as tho circumstances var iant. Chlldien aie sometimes turned oer to lei.uives ana .sometimes to a chat liable society, tcg.ud being had al ways to the icllglon of tho child In se lecting the soqluty. "Delinquents gcneially come Into couit from the maglstiatcs' offices, sometimes diicctlj-, sometimes liom piison. It is In the handling of these cases that tho judge has the most deli cate and dlfllcult tasks Imposed on him. What to do with a bad boy is a ptob lem as old as ume. If the wisdom ot tho past had given us ono formula to follow, the task would bo simple, but tho question, evciy time It arises, Is as new as when It was fiist piesented. That some hoys, would bo better olf if spveicly punished the fiist time they lie or steal is undoubtedly tiue. The met that tho way of the ttansgtessor is haul ought to bo taught both as a moial piccept and an actual fact. Still tho question In cnciy case Is, How shall this boy bo handled.' With the best motives and the most caioful and pa tient inquiry the judge can, at best, but guesM. To send tho boy homo, and do nothing more, ns was ttequently the old way, is peihaiu to teach him that the law Is not stem but lenient; to give Use lu him to a feeling that after all to olfend, to bo caught, to be taken to couit, is not a seiious matter. To ro fuso to send him homo Is perhaps to tuko fiom him just tho Inllueuco which will, with some ou'uido bupei vision, make him a good mun. "It is just heio that tho juvenile couit act, In my Judgment, olTcts Its .gieatest good, and opens up a now ciliunca to deal Intelligently with the boy's case. Instead of making the boy piomlso to bo gooil and sending him home tho court places him In chaigo of n piobdtlon oillcer, and then lets him go home,, Tho probation officer Is tho child's fiiend, but tho court's ad viser. Each boy Is kept under sur veillance. If, after tho piomlso ho has made to the court, ho staj-s away fiom school (If puients can send him) or re fuses to work, or goes with his former associates, If they aiu bad boys, ho Is warned, and If ho will not mend his ways ho Is lu ought back to court, und then the Judge has, more knowledge of tho case to guide him in acting InteWl gently in tho matter, Oho piobatloA oillcer to whom slnco last July nearly ona bundled chlldien have been com mitted, told mo recently timt slio had but one child backslide.

(Mmlllo Kline in Philadelphia Record,) f-ITAOnAY the sum total of Cuba's H Impoits from tho United I States is $20,000,000. .They are chiefly lard, Hour, salt meats and some machinery, fho remaining $.10,000,000 of Cuba's Imports Is from Uio F.uropcan countries. All tho machinery which comes from Great Bi Italn the foundries nnd machine shops of the United States could sell. All the rlco that pours Into Havana fiom India, tho fields of tho Carolines and Louisiana could supplj'. All tho cloths that roll from French and Ger man looms could find their wny to Cuban wearers from tho factoiies of Xcw Englund and tho Middle States. California glows better wines than the slopes of Castillo and Catalonia have produced for centuries: while the shoe fuctoiles of Massachusetts make high class footwear that looks os well and wears longer than the output of tho factories of Majoica. Tho offer of Cuba in her trade of to day is cent per cent, for a clear ex change. But this is for the present alone. It is the calculation of the Cuban government that within the next ten years Cuba's imports will amount to $200,000,000. Tho full volume of that vast trade awaits tho giasp of the people who are her neighbors. She Is today the best customer of tho United States on the AVestern Hemisphere. She asks only tho opportunity to be a better and u more pi oil table ono in the yeais to come. m Fredoiick Land Is, of Logansport, who has just been nominated for congress In the Eleventh Indiana district, like his elder bt other.

"Tho Republicans of Pennsylvania," saj-s Charles Emory Smith In an inter view in the Washington Post, "will agioe upon a good man for governor and will elect him and support him loy ally after ho is in office." Wo thought so. And you might add that his name will be John Elkin. Ns Candid Coirtmenf About the Strike Fiom tho Albany Journal. OMINALLY tho big strlko In the nthiacito coal regions Is against the coiporatlons that aro engaged In the business of mining, trans porting and belling coal: In fact. It Is against the general public. That is be coming clcarci each day. Alieady, in sonio places, retail dealers havo taken advantage, with unseemly haste, of tho op,iui utility to ndanco tho price of coal. Homo thousands of railroad employes who mo lu no way affiliated with the miners' oiganizntion nic out of emplojment be cause thero Is no coal to bo hauled from tho mines Other thousands will bo out shoitly If tho Illinois' strlko continues, Iioforo ninny weeks havo passed, not a few ImHistilu establishments will be compelled to shut down bocauso of lack of luel, and thus still other thousands of workliigmen will bo deprived of their means of livelihood. Should tho miners' oiganlzatlon buccred In cutting off also the supply of bituminous coal, or In ci citing a shoitngo therein, theio Is no telling to what ptoportlons tho army of the unemployed would grow. Thousands of Innocent holders of tho shaics of the conl companies, who hiuo nothing to do with the management of their business, sie the mniket vuluo of their holdings slulnk, da." after daj In tho meantime, the men with whom tho miners' repre- sriitatlvoH had their dealings aro Buf feting no particular liiconveiiienco, and for the temporary loss that they will sustain they cm, and douhtless will, soon lelnibuiho themselcs by increasing the pi no of coal. And any Increase that thoy make will promptly bo transferred by the uiullcis. to tho consumers. Thus tho public may still suffer from tho stilko long after It la settled. In view of tho Incvliahlo lesult of such a strlko In which the miners' union has engaged tho imposition of a hut den upon tho people at laigo tho officers of tlin I 'nltcd Mine Workers owe to the public a bitter explanation of the rea sons for the com so pursued by their or-g-inlzutlou than thoy havo thus far gicu.

Most of tho men employed lu tho bituminous mines nio uiidoi contiact with their em plojerb lu"r the current year, yet tho offi cers of the union talk of calling them out on a byrtapnthetlo strlko.
