NEW- YORK DAILY TRIBUNE. FRIDAY." APRIL 19. 1901. THE PASSING THRONG. "Children of this generation." Mid W. J. Rich- ards, of Chicago, at th« Waldorf-Astoria yester- lay, "are educated in a manner s different from that pursued >>• the previous generation as a Eerent from that pursued pre\ious generation as a hippopotamus differs from a flea. Vlth our fathers the earlier a child was taught Ma or her letters the better it was considered to be for hl3 or her mind. Children were taught to read as young 1 as possible and pushed in their studies as rapidly as mts?ht be thereafter. Lately, however, the medical fraternity and scien- tists have advanced the theory that this system "was bad in the end for the development of the mind and (within certain limits) the later a ••hild was taught its letters and to read and write Uh better. There would seem to ne something in the theory, when you take Into consideration that of all the animal Kinßdom man is the slowest of development and requires longest the fostering care of its parents. A child of five cast out upon the world to fend for itself would most probably fare but ill. And. rrom immature years, hut little muscular exercise should required, else stunted growth inevitably results. If too eariv work stunts the growth of an infant's body, by analogy It seems not improbable that a like effect may follow a too early work- in? of the infant's mind. Certainly history shows that some of our brainiest men have developed late in childhood, and I have In mind a certain states man of worldwide reputation who. up to the .i.-- of nine, was looked on by his fatnllv aa a hopeless dullard and an impossibility mentally." \u0084 DIED.

"On th»» other hnnd. the kindergarten and pri- mary school had one great recommendation that th!" generation of mammas wfrc loath to give up, and that was" that for a certain number of hours a day it relieved them of the care of their young, a blessing not lightly to he thrown aside. Besides", it ¦was felt that while too much education for the in- fant was bad none at all was rad also. Under these conditions a compromise system has grown up. Children receive what mi;:ht be termed an ob- ject education. They are laueht what things are by handling and observing the thing. They are taught carpentry and manual arts and similar things, hue of books nothing, save what their elders may tell them. As far as H has gone. th« system seems to have worked famously. One great object of the system Is to make the child look upon study as a pleasure, and not a task: the school- room as a place where enjoyment lies, and not a place to look upon with dread and to play 'hookey' from as often as possible. In thl-; the modern ':- cator has certainly succeeded, and the children I have seen who attended these modern schools look forward to schooltime Wttli pleasure and plead not with th»»ir parents for a sick 111 nail l'>r- haps the criticism may he advanced that tht- sys- tem too much resembles that which the immortal Squ^ers pursued at Dothehoys Hall (I have always supposed Dickens meant this to read 'Do th^ boys' Mall). 'W-l-n-d-e-r. wta4ar.' spoiled Squeers. 'Go and wash it," was the command he gave his shiv- ering victim, and then, turning to the astound- ed Nicholas Nlcklehy, -That's the system we pursue here.' Even so. the Idea was not a bad one: if was the manner in which Squeers applied it that pave to it its ill effect."

EFFORTS <iF THE MERCHANTS" ASSOCIATION IN THK RAMAPO FIGHT WORTHY OF RECOGNITION. To the Editor of The Tribune. Sir: It was indeed very proper for The Tribune to call attention to the indebtedness incurred by the Merchants' Association in fighting the Ramapo job. -^ Do taxpayers realize that these gentlemen have been engaged in a long, difficult and expensive task for each of them personally, as literally as If the association had been employed to do those aervi.-es by the taxpayers themselves? That Is the proper way to look at this indebtedness. If every taxpayer would consider himself under personal obligations to these gentlemen for doing? for him what be could not do for himself, for lack of time or for any other cause, it would serve two good purposes. It would not only reimburse them for money paid out, but do this greater service: Inspire citizens of leisure and means to do su«-h services as these gentlemen have done, with the knowledge that su.-li services an- appreciated by the whnie community. 1 inclose $•". and hope that every taxpayer will do the same. If fop no other purpose than to let public spirited gentlemi n know that thuir efforts in behalf «.f the public ure not only commended, but appre- ciated. C). TIKRILL. No. 324 State-st.. Brooklyn.

But thTe were other and deeper reasons for their faith in him. and for the love they bore him. which has been so strikingly manifested since his death. They recognized his ability, his eloquence, bis industry, his conscientiousness, his ent.re tlt- ness for high place, hl.s fearlessness when duty ppoke to him.

He rays that the birds nre valuable and must arrive In the best condition and receive the best care. 1 have seen the crates so crowded that at the station i have counted iiv>- to seven deal birds ln a crate, and many so weak as not to be able to get from tirder the rna*s as they were loaded and unloaded from the cars. Is this the kind care to foster their strength? He says when birds are liberated they meet Instantaneous death. Do they? P-irdH, wins lipped, fall inside the boundary line; hoys nre sent to retrieve them: often there Is quite a race before the bird U caught and Its neck wrung. Dogs are sometimes used, and then the bird is ci i <-lly Mttc-n before de- llvered home. It Is no excuse to maltreat these birds that poul- try is cruelly treated. I have seen the trap sprung and the bird refuse to By, when boys ar* there to scarf them to flight by thn wing balls at them, a supply Of balls beine' kept for thai purpose. Is this sport" to have tbe gun at the shoulder and at tho least rise to lire? Noi the only bad feature of this exhibition was the effect on the boy? of the neighborhood, who all thai Easter week were employed to retrieve tbe birds, dead or alive, and many a chase after wounded birds might be seen, and when captured tbiir necks wrung It was not a very Inspiring sight. What effeel it may have on th<- twenty <.r more boys can be Imagined. I have seen the trap thrown open and the bird refuse to fly. walk iiw.iv, and at last killed «s it was on the ground to pet it out of tho way. These nre facts that J. B.

Sir: The proper ?eas>on for planting trees ln mir city streets has now arrived, and a systematic effort to enlist property owners, and particularly home owners, in improving the streets of the city- is being undertaken by this association. The most effective way Is for one or more resi- dents of each block to form clubs of ten or more friends or neighbors, who will plant trees at a stipulated price. The nurserymen recommended i ¦' tin- associalion will make a low schedule of prices for large orders. With the same Investment of capital and energy it is not possible In any other way to accomplish so much in beautifying a city as by the planting of shade trees along Its residence streets, and In private yards where It is not possible to plant in front of thf houses. Nut only do trees add greatly to the beauty of a city but they add to its he.ilthfulness and to the comfort of all who traverse its streets. They afford more pleasure and comfort in pro- portion to their cost than any other expenditure of an equal amount. Thi- necessary printed forms will be supplied to all who contemplate planting trees, upon applica- tion by l.'Mer only, to the ofllce. No. 64 White-St.. or to "the secretary. Dr. .).

To the Editor of The Tribune. Sir: As a reader of The Tribune from the rural district. I wi<h to congratulate you on the position you have taken on the Stranahan Mortgage Tax bill, and particularly on the editorials of the 16th and nth tost. They hit th^ nail squarely on the head. Mr. Stranahan and some of the oth> r ad- vocates pretend that the people in the rural dis- tricts are for the bill. Nothing Is further from the truhj. It is a direct tax against the borrower, and he pays the tax in the end every time. Every (eat- ore Of the bill is wronsr. In fact, it Is the m-ist iniquitous bill that ever emanated fiom the brain of man. .K-I'.X H. F.I .WARDS. Rome, N. V., April17. 1901. YESTERDAY'S RECORD AND TO-DAYS FORECAST. Washington.

Sir: In regard to those worthy of a place in the niche of fame. I am afraid that the claims of many of our best American Inventors, wbos« labors have been of Incalculable benefit to America, as well as to the human race nt large, are being overlooked in favor of those whose work is ephemera!. 1 therefore take the liberty of suggesting two nam. s : one is that of Eli Whitney, the inventor of the cotton (ta, and the other that of Amos Whltte- more, the inventor of the card machine. Of this latter invention Edward Everett r< -marked In ¦ speech ln Congress on a petition to have the patent extended, owing to its taking so long to oosnplete the invention that the inventor would not be able to r- ¦¦••••iv..- any compi nsution for his laiiors. that It was almost human In the perfect manner in Which It did its work These iw.> ir.vontions have been the BM mi Of adding untoM wealth to the South, but their value has not be«-n local, the whole manu- facturing world having derived benefit from them. Bureljr, Mr. Kdltor, you will agr:-e with me that these tWO great American (entases deserve a comer b) the niche. It might be weH also to consider the claims of other great American inventors, such ns John Kitch, Benjamin Krankhn. Oliver Evans, Samuel Sia'.er. DavM Bushneli, Robert Fulton, Jacob Perkins, Thomas Riant-hard and Henry Eck- ford, whose memoirß are bet forth by Henry Howe in a. volume published In 1840 by W. F. Pockham.

THE PASSING THRONG.

"Children of this generation." Mid W. J. Rich-ards, of Chicago, at th« Waldorf-Astoria yester-

lay, "are educated in a manners different from that pursued

>>• the previous generation as aEerent from that pursuedpre\ious generation as a

hippopotamus differs from a flea.Vlthour fathers the earlier a child

was taught Ma or her letters the better it wasconsidered to be for hl3 orher mind. Children weretaught to read as young1as possible and pushed intheir studies as rapidly as mts?ht be thereafter.Lately, however, the medical fraternity and scien-tists have advanced the theory that this system "wasbad in the end for the development of the mind and(withincertain limits) the later a ••hild was taughtits letters and to read and write Uh better. Therewould seem to ne something in the theory, whenyou take Into consideration that of all the animalKinßdom man is the slowest of development andrequires longest the fostering care of its parents.A child of five cast out upon the world to fendfor itself would most probably fare but ill. And.rrom immature years, hut little muscular exerciseshould b« required, else stunted growth inevitablyresults. Iftoo eariv work stunts the growth of aninfant's body, by analogy It seems not improbablethat a like effect may follow a too early work-in? of the infant's mind. Certainly history showsthat some of our brainiest men have developed latein childhood, and Ihave In mind a certain statesman of worldwide reputation who. up to the .i.--

of nine, was looked on by his fatnllv aa a hopelessdullard and an impossibility mentally."

DJ'KE OF NEWCASTLE i:\TFRTM\FD.

"On th»» other hnnd. the kindergarten and pri-mary school had one great recommendation that th!"

generation of mammas wfrc loathto give up, and that was" that for

a certain number of hours a day

it relieved them of the care oftheir young, a blessing not lightlyto he thrown aside. Besides", it

¦was felt that while too much education for the in-fant was bad none at all was rad also. Underthese conditions a compromise system has grownup. Children receive what mi;:ht be termed an ob-ject education. They are laueht what things areby handling and observing the thing. They aretaught carpentry and manual arts and similarthings, hue of books nothing, save what theirelders may tell them. As far as H has gone. th«system seems to have worked famously. One greatobject of the system Is to make the child look uponstudy as a pleasure, and not a task: the school-room as a place where enjoyment lies, and not aplace to look upon with dread and to play 'hookey'from as often as possible. In thl-; the modern • ':-

cator has certainly succeeded, and the children Ihave seen who attended these modern schools lookforward to schooltime Wttli pleasure and pleadnot with th»»ir parents for a sick 111 nail l'>r-haps the criticism may he advanced that tht- sys-tem too much resembles that which the immortalSqu^ers pursued at Dothehoys Hall (Ihave alwayssupposed Dickens meant this to read 'Do th^ boys'Mall). 'W-l-n-d-e-r. wta4ar.' spoiled Squeers. 'Goand wash it," was the command he gave his shiv-ering victim, and then, turning to the astound-ed Nicholas Nlcklehy, -That's the system we pursuehere.' Even so. the Idea was not a bad one: ifwas the manner in which Squeers applied it thatpave to it its ill effect."

THEIR WORK DESERVES PRAISE.EFFORTS <iF THE MERCHANTS" ASSOCIATION IN

THK RAMAPO FIGHT WORTHY OF

RECOGNITION.

To the Editor of The Tribune.Sir: It was indeed very proper for The Tribune

to call attention to the indebtedness incurred bythe Merchants' Association in fighting the Ramapo

job. -^

Do taxpayers realize that these gentlemen havebeen engaged in a long, difficult and expensive taskfor each of them personally, as literally as If theassociation had been employed to do those aervi.-es

by the taxpayers themselves? That Is the properway to look at this indebtedness.If every taxpayer would consider himself under

personal obligations to these gentlemen for doing?for him what be could not do for himself, for lackof time or for any other cause, it would serve twogood purposes.

It would not only reimburse them for money paidout, but do this greater service: Inspire citizens ofleisure and means to do su«-h services as thesegentlemen have done, with the knowledge that su.-liservices an- appreciated by the whnie community.

1 inclose $•". and hope that every taxpayer will dothe same. Iffop no other purpose than to let publicspirited gentlemin know that thuir efforts in behalf«.f the public ure not only commended, but appre-ciated. C). TIKRILL.

His faith in his people and his country made thepeople trust Governor YVolcott, for they refuseth.ir ccnlldenco to those who distrust them. But

thTe were other and deeper reasons for their

faith in him. and for the love they bore him.which has been so strikingly manifested since his

death. They recognized his ability,his eloquence,bis industry, his conscientiousness, his ent.re tlt-ness for high place, hl.s fearlessness when dutyppoke to him. Yet it was something other thanthese gr.-at qualities, which appealed to them most

CBTJELTT TO THE BIRDS.To th^ Editor of The Tribune.

Sir: Pome facts for J. S. H.. ln this morning'sTribune. He rays that the birds nre valuable andmust arrive In the best condition and receive thebest care. 1 have seen the crates so crowded that

at the station i have counted iiv>- to seven dealbirds ln a crate, and many so weak as not to beable to get from tirder the rna*s as they wereloaded and unloaded from the cars. Is this thekind care to foster their strength? He says whenbirds are liberated they meet Instantaneousdeath. Do they? P-irdH, wins lipped, fall inside theboundary line; hoys nre sent to retrieve them:often there Is quite a race before the bird Ucaught and Its neck wrung. Dogs are sometimesused, and then the bird is cii<-lly Mttc-n before de-

llvered home.It Is no excuse to maltreat these birds that poul-

try is cruelly treated. Ihave seen the trap sprungand the bird refuse to By, when boys ar* there toscarf them to flight by thn wing balls at them, asupply Of balls beine' kept for thai purpose. Is thissport" to have tbe gun at the shoulder and at tholeast rise to lire?

Noi the only bad feature of this exhibition wasthe effect on the boy? of the neighborhood, who allthai Easter week were employed to retrieve tbebirds, dead or alive, and many a chase afterwounded birds might be seen, and when capturedtbiir necks wrung It was not a very Inspiring sight.What effeel it may have on th<- twenty <.r moreboys can be Imagined. Ihave seen the trapthrown open and the bird refuse to fly. walk iiw.iv,

and at last h« killed «s it was on the ground to petit out of tho way. These nre facts that J. B. H.might havt? seen at Interstate Park last week. Letthftr^ be a stop to it, Is the prayer of one wholoves merer. H.

NOW IS THE TIME TO PLANT TREES.To the Editor <-f The Tribune.

Sir: The proper ?eas>on for planting trees ln mircity streets has now arrived, and a systematiceffort to enlist property owners, and particularly

home owners, in improving the streets of the city-is being undertaken by this association.

The most effective way Is for one or more resi-dents of each block to form clubs of ten or morefriends or neighbors, who will plant trees at astipulated price. The nurserymen recommended i ¦'

tin- associalion will make a low schedule of pricesfor large orders.

With the same Investment of capital and energy

it is not possible In any other way to accomplishso much in beautifying a city as by the plantingof shade trees along Its residence streets, and Inprivate yards where It is not possible to plant infront of thf houses.

Nut only do trees add greatly to the beauty of acity but they add to its he.ilthfulness and to thecomfort of all who traverse its streets.

They afford more pleasure and comfort in pro-portion to their cost than any other expenditure ofan equal amount.

Thi- necessary printed forms willbe supplied toall who contemplate planting trees, upon applica-tion by l.'Mer only, to the ofllce. No. 64 White-St..or to "the secretary. Dr. .). Duncan Emmet, No, tMadison Square.

Till-: RUBAL VOTER DOES NOT WANT IT.To the Editor of The Tribune.

Sir: As a reader of The Tribune from the ruraldistrict. Iwi<h to congratulate you on the positionyou have taken on the Stranahan Mortgage Taxbill, and particularly on the editorials of the 16thand nth tost. They hit th^ nail squarely on thehead. Mr. Stranahan and some of the oth> r ad-vocates pretend that the people in the rural dis-tricts are for the bill. Nothing Is further from thetruhj. It is a direct tax against the borrower, andhe pays the tax in the end every time. Every (eat-

ore Of the bill is wronsr. In fact, it Is the m-istiniquitous bill that ever emanated fiom the brain

ELaXL OF FAME SUGGESTION.To the Editor of The Tribune.

Sir: In regard to those worthy of a place in theniche of fame. Iam afraid that the claims of many

of our best American Inventors, wbos« labors havebeen of Incalculable benefit to America, as well asto the human race nt large, are being overlookedin favor of those whose work is ephemera!. 1

therefore take the liberty of suggesting two nam. s :one is that of Eli Whitney, the inventor of thecotton (ta, and the other that of Amos Whltte-more, the inventor of the card machine. Of thislatter invention Edward Everett r<-marked In ¦

speech ln Congress on a petition to have the patentextended, owing to its taking so long to oosnpletethe invention that the inventor would not be ableto r-¦¦••••iv..- any compi nsution for his laiiors. that It

was almost human In the perfect manner in WhichItdid its work These iw.> ir.vontions have been theBM mi Of adding untoM wealth to the South, but

their value has not be«-n local, the whole manu-facturing world having derived benefit from them.Bureljr, Mr. Kdltor, you will agr:-e with me thatthese tWO great American (entases deserve a comerb) the niche. Itmight be weH also to consider theclaims of other great American inventors, such nsJohn Kitch, Benjamin Krankhn. Oliver Evans,
