Thomas Whitney Surette will have the honor of opening the Brooklyn institute season in music. His lecture-concert, on "Schumann's Piano Trio in Minor," at Association Hall, on Friday evening, will be first of a course of six on Chamber Music." He will be assisted at this by Miss Anna Otten, violin; Miss Cecelia Bostelman, 'cello, and Alexander Rlhm, piano, who will play the entire trio, which Is Opus 63. Topics for the five consecutive Fridays following are: "Schumann's String Quartet in A Major," "Piano Trio," Brahms; Schubert's "String Quartette in "Piano Trio," Brahms, and "A Brahms String Quartet." For the quartet concerts Mr. Surette will be assisted by the Olive Mead Quartette, and for the trio concerts by the Misses Otten and Miss Bostelman. Jan Kubelik.

Thus he will visit many sections to which he did not go during his first triumphant tour, four years ago. Jennie Hall JBuckout, a dramatic soprano, who was very popular under her former name, Jennte Hall Wade, will return to the concert stage this fall and will no doubt be often heard with societies with which she used to be such a favorite. ture; the evolution of the house; homes of primitive peoples; Greek and Roman houses; the medieval house; old colonial houses; the house in Japan, Italy, England; dietaries of different nations, localities! and climates; climate, soil, and food products of the world.

"GOOD WORK CANNOT BE DONE. IHrector of Cooking Explains How Far- Beaching the Subject la Bad Cooking Is Immoral. -After the many good words City Superintendent Maxwell baa uttered on behalf tof "fads and frille," of manual training domestic science in the grammar and high schools, It would appear as though he 'lad been lead astray by some of his colleagues on the board of superintendents. only has that board reduced the time allowed for the teaching of manual work and cooking from two hours to eighty "minutes a week, but It has adopted the following resolution, which strikes the of cooking a worse blow than even the reduction of the time allotted: "That the director of poking, the district superintendents, and the principals of schools in which cooking is taught be informed that hereafter no class for instruction in cooking shall be divided into two sections, unless the division is authorized by resolution of the board of superintendents." There are eighty-two elementary schools la the city in which cooking is taught forty-five in Manhattan, fourteen in the Bronx, fourteen in Brooklyn, four In Queens nd five in Richmond.

The Women Principals Associations and the Men Principals Association have commended the teaching of cooking, and the men haye even asked that it be extended so as to include the sixth-year pupils. At present manual training and cooking are taught only in the seventh and eighth years The argument advanced for the extens on of the subject to the lower 8r" the children do verv large perueuinBo -Vt into the seventh year, and it won be advantageous to them to know some- most intelligent women principals, whose school is regarded modeThas for exempts from 'the order of the superintendents'. fabe rlalms that it is absolutely necessary in her school that the classes In cooking shal be divided. If they are to bJ Vons As in many i another school, the Kitchen is in the basement, is dark and the apace is limited. There are two gas ranges, and only one girl can cook at el her at one time.

In cooking, as in many other Hitngs, a person must learn by doing, she said to the reporter. How was a rl to learn when the time devoted to the subject was only two periods of forty minutes each week? By dividing the class each girl would have twice as many practical lessons. If the subject was worth teaching. he said, it should be well and thoroughly taught. If it was not to be so taught, it Should be taken out of the course of study, and no pretense made of having manual training or domestic art taught in the eehools.

''Mrs. Mary E. Williams, who has been director of cooking in the-public schools for decade, has not lost her enthusiasm for the subject, and is as deeply in earnest in advocating its value as she was when she was first appointed. science is not a part of any tranch oE-educatlonal work," she said to an Eagle "It is rather the crown and completion of the girl's education tor which the Instruction In every branch prepares her. It is the application of all the studies In the curricula of elementary and high schools to women's work In the world home making and the rearing of children.

Our aim Is not only to fit her for this work, but to prove to her that it is the highest and best, the most dignified and the Jhost important work In the world, and that, this being true, special training is necessary. "Let me try to make good my claim that "every branch In the curricula is utilized Itf this training. The kitchen laboratory, 'with its experiments in the theory and practice of cooking, is one of the most prolific sources for sentence and theme work In the school. Here all the English, oral and written, is along the lines of woman's work, and serves to dignify it in the little housekeeper's eyes. English literature is rich in praise of woman in the home.

The attention of the domestic science students Is constantly called to this fact, through quotations from the best authors. "Practical application, too, is found for mathematics in weighing and measuring, in marketing and calculating expenses versus income. Domestic science is vitally related to physics and chemistry, to biology, physiology and hygiene. While physics teaches the boy the proper wiring of a building, the rost of electric lights, or the theory of wireless telegraphy, for the girl, in her work at heme, it is concerned with ventilation, plumbing, heating and the relative values of various kinds of fuel from an economical Standpoint. 'As to chemistry, there is no science so intimately connected with the very life of man as chemistry.

In chemistry for the do-niestlo science student we take up the chem. leal composition of air, fire, water and food. Almost all kinds of cooking and housekeep-i ing depend upon chemical principles as in the making of soups, gravies, Jellies, preserves, bread, butter and cheese; in the washing of clothes and the making of soap. Fsr the benefit of health the more she knows about the chemistry of digestion, the chemistry of cookery and the chemistry of cleaning, the better for man. "In biology, as in chemistry, the girl may find ample subject matter bearing upon household affairs and the health of her family ample proof in the study of yeasts, molds.

Tiacterla. There Is a lot of science behind the proper care of the dibhclnth, the sink and the garbage pail science that means much valuable aid to the municipal housekeepers, Wird of health, and the street cleaning department. Clean homes mean a clean city, the study of plant and animal life the domestic science student passes to the Btudy of the human being, the composition of 'he body, the physiology of digestion, the study of food and nutrition, the effects of tea. coffee, alcohol, and narcotics. Bad cooking Is responsible for miyh of the crime anil most of the Intemperance in our land.

"For a vigorous mind, a heallhy bodv Is necessary; for a healthy body, good cooking end proper care are necessary. Indeed, In this proper cooking and proper care we find even the solution of the new problem of-the treatment of slow-minded and defective children; this to be accomplished by tho practice of prevention rather than cure. seems to me that there can be no doubt in anv one's mind, when the matter Is considered carefully, of the importance nnd. Indeed, the beauty an! dignity of this domestic sitence training for our girls. My hope is that It will revolutionize their education, and that the day will come when a grnduate from cur schools or colleges will consider home-making and the rearing of children worthy her highest efforts, and to care for her own home or accept a salaried position In tho home of another as dignified as one in the sqhool or In the office.

"The study of domestic Bcience is of comparatively recent growth, yet In fifty cities nnd towns in the United States has beeii introduced Into elementary and secondary scnoois. it is establiancu in about sixty private schools. In ten colleges, six universities, in twenty agricultural colleges, in fifteen State normal schools, and in twelve institutes, like the well-known one in RocbuBlcr, N. Y. Those who still may doubt as to the value of domestic science as an educational factor will find much to Interest them in the following, taken from the syllabus and course of correlation prepared for high schools and training schools by Mrs.

Kubelik Among the Coming Violinists. It Is rather more than likely that M.

Vincent d'Indy, the distinguished French composer and conductor, who haB been Invited to conduct a series of the BoBton Symphony concerts in September, will deliver some lectures while he is in America. M. d'Indy is one of the greatest living authorities on the esthetics of music, and In France is always In great demand as a lecturer on this subject. It is said of him that he possesses to a maximum degree that charm of diction and felicity of expression which is peculiar 'to French literary men. Already Inquiries have been received from different colleges regarding the possibility of securing M.

d'Indy as a lecturer. As he is the most distinguished master of French music that has ever come to this country there is a great desire to hear him talk on a subject on which he is an authority. Although his stay in America will be brief and will be largely occupied by his work with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, it Is not Improbable that arrangements may be made for a few lectures at the larger universities in the East. M. d'Indy will conduct the public rehearsals and concerts in Boston on December 1 and 2 respectively, and the series In New York, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington the noxt week.

He is expected to arrive in this country on November 25 The New York Symphony Orchestra will inaugurate this fall a new series of Tuesday evening Bymphony concerts, in addition to their customary series of Sunday afternoon concerts at Carnegie Hall ot past wea sons. The number of Sunday afternoon concerts has been Increased from six to eight, and the performance of Sunday afternoon will be repeated on each following Tuesday evening. Herr Felix Wclngartner, who will visit America in January, has consented to conduct two afternoon and two evening concerts. The complete schedule of dates is as follows: Sunday afternoon concerts, November 12, 2C, December 10. 17, January 7, 14.

February 4, March Tuesday evening concerts, November 14, 28, December 12, 19. January 9, 16, February 6, March 6. In addition to the Bololsts for the Boston Symphony concerts In Brooklyn, so far as definitely arranged, are Harold Bauer, pianist; Willy Hess, violinist, and Mr. Warnke, the new first 'cellist of tho orchestra. Indeed a great galaxy of artists will be heard in the United States this coming winter.

Marie Hall, the young English violinist, hardly out of her teens, is one of the first to be heard in New York. She will make her initial bow to an American audience In Carnegie Hall, on Wednesday evening, November 8, In a most attractive and pretentious programme, playing two concertos, those of Tschalkowski and Paganlni. Her tour will be under the direction of Henry Raoul Pugno, the French pianist, and pronounced the interpreter of the music of Mozart, will again visit our shores, this being his third visit. He will give a series of piano recitals in Mendelssohn Hall on November 14. 18 and 24.

After these recitals Pugno will be heard with the different Symphony orchestras Boston, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Chicago and New York and continue his tour to the Pacific coast, where he plays for the first time. Other pianists who will be heard here In their- own recitals and with orchestra are Adele Aus Der Ohe, from November until February and Fannie Bloomfleld-Zelsler, surnamed the "Bundle of Nerves," "The Bernhardt of the Piano," who will tour from February and- only for twenty concerts. A new comer looking for planiattc honors is Minnie Coons, who appeared successfully In Berlin last year with the Philharmonic orchestra and who will make her debut here In her own orchestral concert in Carnegie Hall, oh Tuesday evening, November 2. Another great violinist who will revisit us is Hugo Heermann. who will be heard In this country from the middle of October until the middle of December.

Of the vocalists to be heard here, onertf the most interesting figures will be Bessie Abott. the. young American soprano, protegee of Jean -de Reszke, and also his pupil, whose debut In the Orand Opera House In Paris a few years ago as Juliette made such a stir in the French capital. She will be heard in the beginning of December either in an orchestral concert or In the Metropolitan House, as negotiations to that effect are noty pending, between Director Conrled and Mr. Wolfsohn.

Mme. Klrkby Lunn. the English contralto, with that volco of remarkable range, last season's Kundry of the English "Parsifal" performances, returns for a short tour during the; months of December, January and She will give song one in New York, and appear, in the leading orchestral and choral concerts. Her reappearance will be with the New York Oratorio Society, In "The Messiah" performances at Christmas time. She will sing the same work with the Apollo Club In Chicago also.

Muriel Foster, another eminent English contralto, will return In February and remain until May. She will begin her tour In San Francisco on February 4 and later come East to sing with the leading orchestras and New York Oratorio Society, when she will sing the part of Delilah ln Sslnt-Saens operatic oratorio, "Samson and Delilah." on April 3. Miss Foster has been reengaged as leading contralto of the Cincinnati May festival, where she will sing El-gar's "Apostles" and his "Dream of Geron-tiue" under the composer's baton, Gulseppe Campanarl, the popular baritone of the Metropolitan Opera Company, made Buch a marked success last season on bis concert tour that he will continue on the same lines this coming Beason. He will head his own company for a limited tour in October and part, of November. He will open the Pittsburg series of symphony concerts, and will sing for the first time in New York In two years, with the New York Symphony Orchestra, Walter Damrosch, conductor, on November 26 and 28.

Campanarl wll llnclude the Pacific Coast In his Itinerary this season. Ben Davles, the Welsh tenor, best known In oratorio and song recitals, returns early In March, and will remain until May, singing In the leading festivals, as well as with the Pittsburg Orchestra, Boston Symphony and Boston Handel and Haydn Society. His re-entree in New York will be In a song recital. Herbert Wltherspoon. the Amerlcnn basso, whose sensational success) In London last spring the critics compare to that of Piancon, will bo heard In a recital in New York early in November, repeating his London programme.

Mr. Witberspoon's tour will open at the coming Worcester Festival late tbla month, where he is engaged as leading basso for the third consecutive year. All the Important choral societies have engaged this sterling orchestra for their "Messiah" performances, Including tho Chicago Apollo Club. Other American artists who will sing prominently In this coming senson of music will be Mrs. Corlnne Rlder-Kelsey, whose star of success la rapidly traveling heavenward; Mrs.

Hlssem De Moss, one of our most artistic and conscientious sopranoa; Janet Spencer, contralto; Edward Johnson, tenor; Theodore Van Yorx, tenor; Gwyllm Miles, baritone, and Frank Croxton, basso. A pleasant echo of the success achieved by tho Knelsel Quartet in Europe lent year has Just reached the ears ot that organization. It comes In the form of an Invitation from tho Soclete Phllharmonlque de Paris lo give a concert under Its auspices next February.

Heat to boiling point, skim and pour over two pounds of large selected raisins on their stems. Let stand until the second day, then drain off the syrup and reheat, put in the raisins and let them soak In the hot syrup which should be kept Just below the boiling point, until they are tender. Keep in, stono or glass Jars. Some prefer them without the spices.

Quince Pickle. Peel and divide the quinces into eighths, removing eyes, which, with the skins, should be reserved for Jelly. Put the quinces in a preserving kettle with Just water enough to keep from burning, and place on back of the range. Cover, and let them steam until they become tender, then throw in three-fourths of their weight in sugar. Weigh again when the sugar is dissolved, and for every four and a half pounds of fruit allow half pint of vinegar and a tablespoonful mixed mace and cinnamon.

On the ninth day scald the fruit, vinegar and half an ounce whole cloves and an ounce of stick cinnamon a) together and seal up in jars. Let sland several months before using.

Ripe cucumbers may be pickled in same way. Some soak them over night in a trnn brine, rinse in plenty of cold water the next morning and then cook in the spiced ayrup. "HIGH FINANCE.1 'Z. V. Seems to Begard Bryan and lawson as Not Wrong in Their Conclusions.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: If I remember correctly, a few years ago William J. Bryan was saying some very uh- kind things about the "money power" and tne corrupt influence of it over legislation and government. Among other things he said that it was not so much a question of whether tho government should run the corporations as it was a question of the corporations running the government. Of course, he was promptly denounced as a crank and a demagogue. Of late Thomas u.

Low3on has been making some daringly terrible accusations against the same alleged money power, and while there was practically uo denials from the accused "frenzied; financiers," Mr. Laweon was promptly put down as a disgruntled crank, and but feu people paid much serious attentloa to nil rantings. During the late campaign Alton B. Parkel accused the Republicans of obtaining moaeyf that they had no right to obtain, and he, tba former chief judge of the Court of Appeals, was also denounced as a crank and a ranter. During the last session of ouv Legislature there was universal gossip ciout lobbying and corruption funds, when anybody came forward with specifle accusations he.

too, was promptly put down as a crank, and his rantings and warnings went unheeded. Now. after many of these cranks, including myself, have got tired and become disgusted with the public morals, and decided to let the public take care of Itself, along comes a gentleman named Events aud proves our caBe. Just read to-night's Eagle and treat It as a printed case on appeal. Would any judge or Jury on earth hesitate for a moment In awarding Judgment for the plaintiffs? If there ever was a case of lobbying, of bribery, ot betraying a sacred trust, here is one.

It Is very hard and even indiscreet to call ft man a perjurer, so we won't go that far. but it does seem to many temperate persons that certain witnesses before the insurance Investigators stepped a little beyond the line that divides truth from the other thing. Well, those ot us who have been putting away our hard earned dollars In Insurance for the benefit of our widows and orphans are now informed of what has become of many of those dollars. Some of us also contributed a few dollars to the Democratic campaign, but, alas, one McCall contributed many more of our dollars to the other side. "Did you contribute to tho Democratic fund also?" asked Mr.

Hughes. "Xo, I should be ashamed to." This may have been a gentleman who an swered and a fine example of high finance, but I would call him a name that would no! look well in print. However, I am not worry, ing about it, and I suppose the matter will blow over in a few weeks and people wil4 forget all about It until another Shipbuilding Trust, or something of that sort, explodes E.

TURKISH BLENDED MOCHA-JAVA I'BKB SAMPLES ON' leal has been said and written about color photography during the last few years, but to most people the wnoie Is a kind of a dream which Is lmpossime v. fulfillment. And still through these years the careful, scientific worker has been stuu- ing the subject and has been making until now the impossible has in a great measure been accomplished, for color photography Is at present an established fact. i nhntnrrnnha are being made for practical purposes and still there has been no great, glaring discovery oy wuii-u iu whole secret of color photography was unfolded in a moment, but, instead, the three-color process has been slowly and gradually ..,,1 nti it a science and an art of great Importance.

So gradual. In fact, has this development been tnat coiur mranh hln- used for commercial pur poses, while most photographers still be- on attainment IS lmpuBBiu.c. To the photographer who has watched this matter seems a thing of sclenco and not a part of photography. But now a change Is beginning to taae a i. demand for colored photographs which are true to nature.

Com petition demands color work tor purposes. In the past, when a colored cut was desired for catalogue or advertising purposes, for instance, a colored drawing was th the nit was nrinted in colors. This method at the best is crude, Just as crude as the wash drawing is as to half-tone made, from a photograph. The accurate photographic half-tone Is demanded for Illustration purposes, and Just bo the real colored photograph is being demanded Instead of the drawing for colored Illustrations In catalogues, for advertising and similar purposes. Naturally the merchant who desires to advertise some valuable rugs, for instance, will then want them printed in their natural colors, and to do that he wants them first photographed in their natural colors.

The up-to-date photographer who handles high grades of commercial work should be able to furnish colored photographs the same as the regular work. There Is also a demand for color photography in landscapes, where so much beauty often depends upon the coloring. Every day there 1b a greater demand for color photography In portraiture. The colored bromide, water color and pastel are no longer satisfactory for many purposes. Instead, an accurate color photograph Is demanded, because It Is natural.

Certainly the portrait photographer who Bires to be strictly up to date will make a thorough study of the three-color process and put it Into operation for his regular expensive gallery work. Of course, color photography cannot be used for moving objects or for lntantae-ous work ot sny kind, because the color screens necessitate a longer exposure and three negatives are required Thus objects to be photographed by the three color pro cess must be still for a reasonable length of time Naturally these conditions exclude children, but grown persons can easily keep still while three negatives are made provided the photographer has convenient apparatus and works quickly. For this work, however, the sitter should be placed in a comtortabteBisltion. and to be sure that there Is no movement of the head, it ,1 niH fashioned head rest. IS wen iu uoo These bead rests have practically gone out of style for gallery work, but for three color photography they arev eryco nvenienta nd save many a color portrait.

It Is evident that the development of color photography has only beguu and that progress is bound to be steadily though slowly made in this most valuable branch of the art. The progressive photographer will see the coming Importance of color work and will give it his careful attention. Many photographers find that very often the negatives they considered excellent do not make good enlargements. As a rule the strong negative which produces good bromide or a good platinum print loes not make a good enlargement because the negative Is not only too dense for the ordinary enlarging light but the contrasts are too great for an enlargement with good gradation. Of course, these negatives will produce just as good enlargements as contact print provided a very strong light is used In the camera, but such a light is not generally within the reach of the average amateur.

As a rule a negative to make a good enlargement should be clear and crisp but not too dense and should be full of detail. A negative which has about the same quality aB a good lantern slide will make excellent enlargements. When the negative is too dense for enlargements the best way is to reduce it. Unless the negative is flat, ammonium persulphate should be used as the reducer because it attacks the high light first and this reduces the contrasts and consequently produces a softer negative with more detail. The negative should be well soaked in water and then immersed in a solution of: Water ounces Amrnonluni persulphate 1 dram The tray should be rocked continually and when reduction bas proceeded far enough the negative is rinsed well in clean and then Immersed.

In a solution of: Water ounces Sodium sulphite 1 dram The negative should remain in this bath about five minutes, after which It is washed for half an hour and dried. This reducer is excellent for hard negatives and for producing soft negatives full of detail, because the dense portions or high lights of the negative are reduced faster than the shadows. It should always be remembered that there is absolutely no use of reducing with amon-lum persulphate unless the negative has first been thoroughly fixed and washed. Most amateurs have more or less trouble with Intensification and reduction, and a great part of this trouble is due to Insufficient fixing and washing. Consequently, especially when using ammonium persulphate as a reducer the negative must be thoroughly fixed and washed if good results are expected.

Ammonium persulphate should always be used fresh as It spoils quickly and causes a yellowish brown discoloration In the negative. Negatives should never be left in the ammonium persulphate bath fnr more than three or four minutes. If sufficient reduction Is not obtained In that time the solution should be thrown out and the operation repeated. Never use the persulphate stronger than the formula given.

For the beginner it is generally best to use the formulas that come with the paper, but after one has a little experience In using toning baths it Is well to try different formulas, as different baths give different tones and work differently.

Blend skillfully that no one spice predominates. Keep them in glass or stone jars, if the latter, be sure the Jars are new nnd clean. Use the best cider vinegar and kettles and utensils of agate or porcelain ware. Apple Ginger. Pare, core and cut into slices six pounds of good sweet apples.

Cover with boiling water and let stand for ten minutes. Pare and wash a pound of green ginger aud scaid with the apples. Boil to a clear syrup six pounds of granulated sugar and a quart of water, skim and when it will spin a thread from a fork drain the apples and ginger and pour the syrup over them to cover. Cover closely and put aside for an hour. Then place over the fire and bring slowiy to simmering point and continue until the apples are tender and clear.

Let them get cold, then put in small glasses, cover and keep same as other preserved fruit. Pickled Apples. Pare. a peck of small, smooth, sweet apples, but do not remove the stems. Dissolve two pounds of befc-t brown sugar in a- quart of cider vinegar and in it drop a bag ot thin muslin or cheesecloth containing half a tea-spoonful of cloves and tivo teaspoonfuls cinnamon.

Just before It boils pour out half the vinegar syrup luto a glass or stone Jar and cover. In remainder of the syrup, which should be closely covered, drop the whole apples and let them simmer until they are tender, but not broken. Skim them out of syrup and put Into small stone jars or two quart glass Jars. Put aside the syrup In which the apples have been cooked and use it for cooking apples for Immediate use. and put the aples in the reserved, heated syrup and heat them, keeping slightly below boiling point.

Then put into Jars and seal. If large apples are used they should be quartered. Pickled Pears. Dissolve two pounds and a half of sugar to a quart of ci.ler vinegar. Fill a small bag with a tablespoonful of ground cinnamon and half a grated nutmeg and drop into the syrup which Is sufficient to cover a little more than two pounds ot fruit.

If the pears are email pickle them whole, if large cut In halves and take out the core. Pare them or not. as you choose. Put them into the pyrup and cover closely, simmer until tender, thpn skim them out and place in Jars. Boll the syrup fifteen minutes longer, pour over tho truit and seal.

Pickled Plums. To four pounds of fruit allow two pounds of sugar and a pint of vinegar and a half ounce each of cloves and cinnamon. Place spicce In a bog and boil with the sugar and Unegar, skim the syrup and pour It scalding over the fruit, which has been pricked with a needle. Let stand, covered, three dnys; pour off the syrup, scald again and skim aud again pour over the fruit. Repeat this process every three days until the fruit has been scalded three times, then place in jars and seal.

Pickled Peaches. For those who prefer the unpealed peaches this recipe Is given. Wipo oft the down from a dozen free-stone peaches and cover them with a brine strong enough to hear an egg and let them remain for two days; then take them out and drain In a sieve and pack them In jars. Tie In a thin muslin bag an ounce of whole white pepper; one ounce of ginger root broken and two mustard seei. atdia.

a ue-j ADVICE FOR THE B. R. T. 'G. A.

Offers It Says One Need Is More Conductor and Fewer Inspectors. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Now that the fall and winter seasons sre approaching, It would seem that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company officials are commencing- to get scared and draw into their shell, and we unfortunates live In Brooklyn or Its suburbs have nothing better to look forward to than the continued annoyance and unnecessary delays on the cars ot this company. While we must appreciate the great task before them, yet we also cannot fall to realize that, by the use of a little common sense and ordinary Judgment, which must be conceded to the average man, and which It is reasonable to believe could be obtained for the management of this company, they could obviate considerable of the trouble which the traveling public Is put to by the lack of these two qualities somewhere in the management. If the heads of the corporation would take a few trips during the busy hours snd mingle with the patronB and take their chances with them, they would be able to see what is needed much better than by traveling around In a private car, which has all the conveniences of home and the right of way over the ash cars. I think if they would do this even they would realize that it is at least no pleasure.

A case in point: On the Brighton Beach Division this morning was a good illustration of how a little forethought would help matters materially. At Avenue the cars were so crowded that it was next to Impossible to crowd through them, and when the conductor got into the middle of a car, collecting fares, It was Impossible for him to get out to the platform to give the signal to go ahead. The consequence was that after the motorman had waited a few minutes and blown his whistle a couple ot times, calling tor the signal from the conductor to go ahead, some passenger kindly told him all was right. This happened at all the stations on the surface. Then when we reached Franklin avenue, and were ready to go down the elevated as an express, a local from up Fulton street was allowed to go In ahead of us, the result can easily be imagined.

It would, therefore, seem that a few more conductors and fewer Inspectors, who only make -trouble and delays, would Improve the service immensely, without Increasing the cost. The question is, Who Is to out It 'ip to the officials In the proper light, and ft Is tne writer opinion that there Is no medium better adapted for this purpose than the Eagle, which has the interest of the Brooklyn citizens st heart, and there is no doubt that it would have the support of all in the good work.

Brooklyn, September 21, 1905. WANTS PENITENTIARYTOREMAIN Mr. O'Began Objects to Building's Ke-moval, Even Though Inmates Be Transferred Elsewhere. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Kindly permit me to submit the following: That to remove the materials of the Kings County Penitentiary, on Rogers avenue, would impose an Incalculable loss upoa the taxpayers of Brooklyn, snd, hence, I advocate, for reasons more fully set forth hereinafter, that the building should be retained and a place of public use, profit and enjoyment made thereof. My appeal is for and in behalf of the public.

The officers of the new armory, close by, now in course of construction, have thus fsr seemed delighted, because they think that the penitentiary stones, bricks and general material will be removed to Blackwell's Island. The propriety of the removal of the prisoners is conceded, but not the removal of the buildings. Because it is close to Prospect Park, and close to the new armory, the members of which sre seml-polltlcal and sociable, they want aa eyesore an alleged one removed. What Is the armory If not the headquarters of a mutual admiration society, aloof from the rights and interests of the people? The Penitentiary cost at least, if not more than, (1,000,000. Its walls and form and shape transcend Madison Square Garden in New York.

Its walls are greater, Its foundation stronger, and its availability greater than Madison Square Garden. Let the present attempt go on. Brooklyn will not receive any benefit of stone, brick or material that are supposed to be shipped to Black-well's Island. After the removal of the prisoners, before the contractors and their backers get two-thirds of the value -of the material arising from railag of the building, what profit will the people of Brooklyn have? Let the building stand. Let It be remodeled.

Let it be unto Brooklyn a greater amphitheater than is Madison Square Garden. To overcome the legal aspect of ths situation simply requires publicity and the inauguration of public concerted actlou. A meeting should be held, facts presented, a formal aad legal protest made against tearing down the building. Behold what could be done? Without half as great a cost as the lost value from removal of the material after the prisoners were gone, how easily the strong walled Penitentiary building could be converted, shaped to suit winter circus, made an amusement center, as well as utilized for industrial purposes. Boxing exhibitions might be held there.

Practical sparring schools held to teach vigorous youth In the art of manly self defense. And from all exhibitions all surplus over and above expenses should be donated to charitable Institutions. The form, shape and capacity of the buildings are such that once citizens are convinced of the suggested utility, the city will naturally and necessarily buy sufficient surrounding ground. The rental for circus purposes would mare than recoup the cost of reconstruction. Interiorly a miniature coliseum could be made.

Instead of removal at an enormous expense to satisfy sundry soldiers and greedy contractors, let the prisoners be removed but keep the buildings. For even gotten Row In London was made a respectable section by reconstruction. Why could not this colossal, well built penitentiary without graft or fruitage to contractors become within lis beautiful environments the center of Joy. pleasure, srt, skill and general amusement for the benefit of the public? Shall the seml-ludlcrous feather-bed soldiers of the Brooklyn Armory win against the common sense of the people? WILLIAM M. O'REOAN.

1S6 Remsen street. September 22, 1805. East Northfleld, September 22 The Northfleld Bible Training School for young women began its sixteenth year to-day with a carefully selected entering class and with several important changes in the administration of the institution, the most conspicuous of which has been the incorporation of the Training School with Northfleld Seminary, the girls school started twenty-five years ago by D. L. Moody.

Both schools still keep their separate corporate identity, but the students of either may take advantage of the courses of- the other. Among the other changes Miss Mabel W. Learoyd of Danvers, formerly of the faculty of Mt. Hermon, has been newly appointed principal. Dr.

A. T. Pierson, editor of the Missionary Review of the World, Brooklyn, has been engaged as lecturer during September and October. Miss Ruth Ray of East Orange, N. is the pew head of the music department and Miss Annie M.

White of Manhattan has been added to the Bible Department. The non-resident lecturers are Miss Margaret Slattery of Fltchburg, Professor H. W. Hastings and Professor James McConaughy of Mt. Hermon, Mass.

No change was made this year in the board of directors, which Includes Mr. and Mis. Frank Wood of Boston, Mr. and Mrs. P.

B. Keith of Campello, A. O. Moody of East Northfleld, and R. H.

Stearns, of Boston. One of the novel features of the school is that It is held in the suites and parlors of the Northfleld, a big mountain hotel which Is run Jointly with the Bible school during the winter months. SLUMMING PARTIES. Mr. Smith Tells What Would Happen if the Poor Fried Into Bich Ken's Homes.

To the. Tditof of the Brooklyn Eagle: We often hear about slumming, parties. That means that a number of rich men and women will go down on the East Side of the city in the evening or, In fact, any time of the night with a policeman or detective, who raps on tho poor man's door and is admitted because he Is a policeman in uniform. Then these rich men. and' women walk in, feast their eyes on this poor family's shame, poverty and degradation.

Do they leave five or ten dollars with that poor family? Oh, no! after seeing a few more such places they go to a fashionable restaurant, where they have a big supper, gorge themselves with food and drink, and often go home Intoxicated! Now, suppose a number of "poor men and women from Christie, Allen and Essex streets should go up town among the homes of millionaires, after 12 o'clock at night, rap on the door of one of their houses and say, "Good evening; we have called to see how you people are living up here; we want to see the inside of your house." Why. that rich man would call for a dozen policemen; the reserves would be ordered out, to arrest all those poor men and women. Then how dare he or any of his rich friends go down to that poor man's house with a policeman and force hlB way In at night? Have poor people got any rights that the rich are bound' to respect? If I was a poor man living on the east side and a slumming party rapped on my door after 12 o'clock at night I would not open It. and If they continued to rap I would shoot through the door. This slumming business should be stopped by law; if not, then by force.

It is a low, dirty habit that some rich people practice on poor ignorant foreigners. J. H. SMITH. 200 West Twenty-third Street, Manhattan, September 21, 1905.
