What lie Sees mill Hears Daring Ills Trnvels. Tho "oramine process" so common in our public schools, the multiplicity ofstudlosand the abominable methods, to which I called attention some days ago, is still bolng pur sued by the local board of School Directors, with little hopo of immediate rolicf. Hun dreds of your readers In town aro dally add ing their evidence in opiwsitlon to tho system in vogue at present, and with ono voice, as it wero, attest the wisdom of reducing tho pres ent curriculum In conformity to tho capabili ties of the scholars. I could easily fill your columns with the opinions of parents and othors who aro nnxlous for a reform in this respect. Were Superintendent Whltakcr to Inaugurate such a movement ho would bo sustained by four-fifths of tho parents of tho town, as well as somo of the most suc-essful educators of thostato. It Is hoped that tho agitation of this much ncoded reform will bo continued until tho pride of our schools will be found not In tho dllllculty of tho studios taught, but In theexcollcncoof attainment In those comprchonelblo by the children. Thero is ono very important matter to which I dcslro to call attention. It la an old subject, yot over fresh and green. If you will try an Interesting oxperiment, you will see what I moan and why I feel bound to utter a warning. Looking over tho nows columns of your paper some evening you discover that Mary Roe and John Doo were secretly married a week ago. Some reporter and reporters are like corkscrews, forovery time they turn round they find tholr way deeper Into suspicious incidents has run upon tho fact by accident and instantly made it public. Now keep watch of the same columns for three months, and tho chances are 03 to 1 that another ovent will have happened, namoly, that Mr. and Mrs, Doo havo had a pretty rough tlmo of it for 00 days and that ono of tho parties has appealed to tho courts for relief and release. Thero is a logical connection between a secret mar' riagoand domestic misery which is almost as inovitablo as tho fall of a stono that is thrown into the air. If what you conteraplato can't bo done openly and before tho wholo world, it is not safo to do it at all. Tho God of nature has so arranged tho universe that what is dono secretly has a boomerang quality which is very disagreeable To keep ico in tho sickroom over night, set tho pitcher iu a uewspapor, gather up tho end?, twist them tight, and snap on a rubber band. Snatching of pocket-books has become o,ulto common of Into, and it is not surprising that such is tho case. A lady friend of niluo met with such fate tho other evening on Oak street, but as luck would havo it tho lecepliclo for tho "filthy lucre" contained only a few dimes. It is not often that a woman is seen in public without n puree iu her hand, and as lougas they persist in thU practice there will be snatchers around. Tho wonder is that morosuch cases aro not reported. Politics is certainly becoming warm in this 'neck of tho woods." Tlio Republicans ap pear to be uulted and aro making an aggros sivo fight. Tho Democratic machine, on tho other hand, is powerful and is strongly eu trenched. Tho course of its tools, howovor, in several of the ofllces on "tho hill," to gether with tho fact that they havo nomi natedscvcral men who are iu nowise qualified for tho positions to which thoy aspire, has given tho friends of good government corn mon ground on which to unite and fight tho common enemy. Thero will bo many sur prises for my Democratic friends on the morn ing of the 8th of November, if the presont may be acoepted as a criterion, Shenandoah has many street corner loafers of many varieties. The evil of such practico is two fold. In tho first place it is annoying to passers-by, and tho foul languago used by those loafers has in many cases caused the blush of shame to mount tho cheek of many of Shenandoah's fair daughtors. In tho second place it is on tho street corners that the youth of tendor years receives his first lossons in crime. In this respect of cry parent whose son indulges in this practico has a solemn duty to perform. If thoy would only insist on their boys remaining at home, and teach them tho benefit to bo dorived from reading good books, one half tho crime that is commitled to-day would be unheard of. On tho other hand, thero are many young meu who havo had the benefit of good homes that forget tho instructions of their childhood in after years, and who often prove a dis grace to those who gavo them being. Tho parent, indeed, has a solemn duty to perform, and few thero be who havo an adequate conception of tho duties they owe their child ren. This, practico of street corner loafing should be stopped, whether by tho enforce ment of the parental law or that of tho borough, Obe.
