I TRYING A CURIOUS PLAN. I Teaching Modern Science In the Oldest at Oriental Languages. | The Punjab province of India has been for some years the scene of an interesting academical experiment, that 1 of communicating western science, phi--1 losophy and literature to the people through their mother tongue, and to the I educated through their learned lan--1 guages, and not in an English dress, as . elsewhere. Sixty-three years ago Macaulay and J Duff destroyed the very different pernicious system of bribing native students of Sanskrit, Persian and Arabic to read their own sacred books. Gradually the learned classes came to be left out of our state system of public instruction, with evil results. Sir Donald McLeod accordingly devised and Sir Charles Aitchison carried out the plan of at once, attracting these, in the Punjab at least, by oriental titles and degrees, and of examining all students for the ordinary university degrees through the j medium of their own vernacular. The ' Punjab university and its oriental col- ) ! lege were founded at Lahore for these I two ends. | The latest report of the Edinburgh - * graduate, My. J. Sime, M. A., whois ' director of the department, is not very favorable to the success of' the double experimtmt. no\V some IS years old. Ho , declares that “the prospects of advanced i education through tlib medium of the ; ! vernacular are not improving at least, ' and Sir Dennis Fitzpatrick, the lieutcnI ant governor, htis\ ordered a special re- } port on the Subject. In the Oriental 1 college last yeaiyonly 5 students jvere ! reading for the title of Slt»stri, or hon- ' ors in Sanskrit; 14 for Visharada, or high proficiency in the same; 11 for I Maitlavi Fazil, or honors in Arabic: 7 I for Manlavi Alim, or high proficiency; , 7 for Murishi Fazil, or honors in Persian; 7 for Munshi Alim, and 7 for the Gurniukhi title in the Sikh vernacular. Os the 117 candidates in rhe local uni- I yersity in Sanskrit a third passed. Os 33 in Arabic two-thirds passed, and so in Persian and Gurniukhi. The only encouraging fact is- that every year the number of the Pundit class who take honors and degrees in Sanskrit is rising, and more than half of them go to the Punjab examinations from the other provinces where there are no such tests. —Edinburgh Scotsman. LEGAL PLEA FOR HER HAND. Able Argument of Counsel Involving Personal Interests. I The judge’s daughter was perturbed. I “Papa,” she Said, knitting her pret- i ty brow, “lam in doubt as to whether I have kept to the proper form of procedure. In one can err in so many little technicalities that I am ever fearful. Now, last evening George”— The judge looked at her so sitarpiy over his glasses that she involuntarily i ■paused. • •>-. • . “I tiiought you had sent him about his business,” he said. • I did hand down an adverse decisiou,.” she answere/t, “and he declared ( that he would appeal. However, I con- , vinced him that I was the court of last j resmT in ’t case like that and that no appeal would lie from my decision. ” “Possibly the court was assuming a little more power than rightfully belongs "to it,” said the judge thoughtful- ' Iv, “hut let that pass. What did he do ' then?’ "He filed a petition for a rehearing.” “The usual course,” said the judge, “but it is usually nothing but a mere formality. ” “So I thought, ” returned the girl, “a.nd I was prepared to deny it without argument, but the facts set forth in his petition were sufficient to make me hesitate and wonder whether his case had really been properly presented at the first trial. ” “ Upon what grounds did he make the application?” asked the judge, scowling. ‘rtV^ll,,’’ she replied, blushing a little, "you see, he proposed by letter, and bis contention was that the case was of that peculiar character that cannot be properly presented by briefs, but demands oral arguments. The fact that the latter had been omitted, he held, should be held to be an error, and the point was such a novel one®hat I consented to let him argue it. Then his argjifnent was so forceful that I granted his“'petition and consented so hear the whole case again.

"No; I thank you, sir,” she said. “I qever drink anything stronger than lemonade.” Then the gentleman pointed to the post, and, while the rest of the crowd laughed, she read: “Pie, per cut, 5 cents.” —Indianape,' lis Sentinel.

IN OPEN CONFLICT I . ll — Mob and Militia Indulge In Several Incipient Riots. TROOPS ARE LOSING PATIENCE. Number of Militiamen Unarmed by a Crowd of Strikers While on a Streetcar — Kocks Thrown at the Soldiers, Who Mude a Charge and Bayoneted Some—Several Arrests Made. Cleveland, July 18.—Yesterday was another turbulent day in the vicinity of the Brown company’s works. There . were several incipient riots, and last evening there was an open conflict between the mob and militia, it peing necessary to put 1,000 men to flight at the point of the bayonet. The trouble began in the forenoon when Patrolmen Guenther and Carey were surrounded by a mob of rioters anil threatened with ddath. The officers *held the mob at bay until help came and one of tiie leaders was.arrestod. In the afteruoou two militiamen on a. streetear on their way to do picket duty were set upou by a dozen men. The soldiers were unarmed at the time, but they used their lists to such goad nilvantage .that they drove their assailant.-, from the car. Subsequently three of the rioters were arrested. Last evening When t he nonunion men were taken from the works Captain Zimmerman, with a company of militia, cleared the street. Afterward the soldiers returned to the works and a crowd of 1,000 men gathered in a vacant lot across the street. They assailed the militiamen with vile epithets amt finally somebody suggested that the soldiers be stoned. Captain Zimmerman said he was waiting for the stone throwing to begin. J.st then a rock grazed his cap. Then the order to charge was given tine the soldiers plunged forward. The crowd broke and started to run, but all could not get away from the soldiers. At least a dozen men were bayoneted and some of them were seriously hurt. The injured were hustled away so quickly that it was impossible to learn the names of any of them. The s cuation was uglier last night than it Las been at any time yet. The mobs are growing desperate and the troops I have lost patience. It is expected that there will be some shooting this evening ii there is any show of violence toward the troops. Lone Militiinnn Attacked. A squad of militiaman was returning ' home shortly after G o’clock in the evening, alter having escorted men from the when one of then*— separateil from the others. He was ' noticed by striker and a small crowd : followed Min, hooting and jeering. By the time he reached Jaete s block on. ■ Hamilton street the moo had grown to 4,000 I.r 5,000 in number, and many , stones . were thrown. Tiie soldier hail I only his side -arms and ran into a giaoc- ' ery store to escape. Tiie crowd threat--“ tened to tear down the building abd he 1 came out. ! Special Policeman Owen Murplfc ap--1 poured ami s arted to escort the niilitianian Io a patrol box that police tissist- ‘ an.ee might be sunintmivd, but the mob ' encompassed them and ..Hacked them with stones, sticks and fists. Meanwhile word of the trouble had been sent to the militia at *tjie Brown works and Company F hastened to the rescue. At doublequick, with rifles at charge bayonets, they rushed at the crown, clearing the street speedily. A numiter of men and boys were stabbed with the bayonets, but only two seriously,- Thomas Garrity and Thomas McGlarvey. They Were wounded in the b ick and MeGlarvey may die. In the excitement the lone militiaman slipped away, and though doubtless injured, is probably not dangerously hurt. Murphy, however, was so badly beaten that his recovery is in doubt. BALFOUR ON PARLIAMENT. He Claims the Great Ouest lons Should Be Dealt With by Short Bills. London, July 18.—Mr. Arthur Balfour, the conservative leader in parliuI ment, made a speech last night at the banquet of the United club, at which he touched upon the difficulties the government has encountered in securing the passage of the Irish land bill and the educational bill. Mr. Balfour contended that there was nothing exceptional in the present state of the gov, ernment’s business and that no government ever succeeded at the first sessio 1 of a parliament in passing more, than a, sixth part of its programme. The moral he drew was that until the method-of proceedure was fundamentally reformed it would only be possible to pass short bills, and that great questions could 1 j dealt with only l|y Short bills in succeeding sessions.

I Washington, July 18.—Chief Engineer Melville of the navy left today for a visit to the Westinghouse electric plant at Pittsburg aud to the electric power plant at Niagara Falls.
