While all historical anniversaries In the life of Anirrcla are of generul Import to the nation, that eommeinoratlng the landlnr of I'enn's ship Welcome, on October 7, 162, should appeal with double emphasis to all Peniisylvanlans, especially those of the very oily of 1'tnn. Believing that the public schools are fit shrines In which to pay hum-sgo to the day, Superintendent Brooks will not allow the golden opportunity presented by thezTtb of next October to pass by unnoticed. A recommendation from him, now under lbs consideration of tho committee on gram mar, secondary and primary schools, will give the schoolmasters an opportunity to teach their children an ob)eot lesson which will strlks tns very keynote or patriotism In the heart of the future Philadelphia cltlsen.

In bis recommendation Superintendent Brooks says: One of tho chief objects of the public schools is to nt their pupils for the duties of fllllxenshlp. For tbe accomplishment of this purpose one of tbs most etllclsnt means Is the cultivation of the sentiment of patriotism, and for tho development of this sentiment one of the most Influential agencies Is the commemoration of the grout historic event of the stato or nation. "On tbe 27th of Octoler, ltN2, the good ship Welcome Nulled up tbe harbor and landed on the shores of tho Delaware, on the deck of this voNael stood a man who bore to a new world a new gojipel of civil llherty. Ho earns as a herald of the dix'Vlne of peace. Justice and charity a doctrine which It baa taken lh world centuries to learn and which Is Jtmt beginning tube the policy of tho older nations.

New Rngland with patriotic purpose commemorate the landing of the A1 ay (lower and the relation of that event to national liberty. Pennsylvania, and especially Philadelphia, tt wduld seem, should with the same patriotic purpose commemorate ths landing of the Welcome, freighted with a purer and nobler doctrine of humanity and civil lib erty, unstained with any spirit of Intolerance and bigotry. I would therefore recommend that the superintendent be authorized to direct the teachers of the public schools to hold such exercises on the anniversary of the landing of the 'good ship Welcome as may fittingly commemorate that event and teach a lesson of patriotism to the children of the city." CAPTAIN LINDEN'S OFFICE ROBBED Thieves Despoil tho Sanctuary of the Superintendent of Police. The wicked men who steal have penetrated even Into the sacred precincts of the oflice of tho Superintendent of Police. Until yesterday a pretty little blue enameled sign, the lettering on which was In spotless white, ornamented the top of Clerk Hoop's desk, which stands in tbe ante-room to the oflice of Superintendent Linden.

It read We Never Sleep. Homebody stole this sign. Now there Is trouble around headquarters, and the atmosphere has assumed the melancholy hue of the background of the departed motto. When "Billy" Faster, the messenger, arrived yesterday morning, and discovered that the "terrorlzer," as the Inoffensive little stripof tin was called, had been embezzled, be went out and tnan agony of grief had all his hair cut olf. Hoop followed suit, and Charley Henry would have done likewise, but.

Captain Miller refused to state what steps had been taken to apprehend the culprit. It Is known, however, that the lofs of the sign was a severe shock. People would come Into the office and, while watting for an audience, would read thecolemn comic papers provided for such emergencies. Presently they would lltt their eyes and see tbe sign. The gloom would leave their faces and knowing grins would linger Instend.

Another sign has been ordered, which will read Wk Hardly Ever Sleep, i The detectives are being closely guarded. French Mechanics Here. The big delegation of French worklngmen and mechanics who are In this country for the purpose of Inspecting American methods and customs In the various factories and Industries, arrived in this city last evening. The foreigners were met by French Consul General Volssion, who, after an exchange of greeting and an expression of welcome to the CitV of Brotherly Love, escorted them to the Continental Hotel, which will be their headquarters during their short stay. The tourists have been In New York since their arrival In this country, where they visited the more lm- fiortant manufactories and Industrial estab-Ishments.

The delegation comprises fifty-two Frenchmen. To-day the party will split and the different bands will visit some of Philadelphia's famous commercial institutions, but will only be able to catch a glimpse of them, as their time Is limited. To-morrow afternoon they will go to Pittsburg. Neglected His Wife and Children. A case of poverty in its most direful nhases was revealed yesterday before Magistrate Pole when John Kelley, of 1608 York street, was charged with being continually drunk and neglecting his wife and four children.

Several witnesses testified that Kelley' home was filthy and almost destitute of furniture. Special Policeman Lawrence, who arrested Kelley, stated that be found a 10-months-old infant lying on the second floor of the house dying from hunger. The death-like stare from the child's face induced him to believe at first that it had died of starvation, but on a closer examination be found it was alive. It was sent to a physician, who said that It needed the most careful treatment or death would ensue, 't he child was witboutclotblng of any kind. Kelley wrb sentenced to the House of Correction for a year.

Relief for Southern Sufferers. The people of Frank ford are coming bravely to the assistance of tbe sufferers by the reoent storms In ths South. A large meeting was held last night at Wright's Institute, which was called to ordered by Dr. John V. Allen.

A permanent organization was effected by the appointment of the following officers: David Heston, president; Thomas Foulkrod, secretary, and Manuel K. Peters, treasurer. R. T. Corson offered his big Btoreroom on Main street, above Orthodox, as a place In whioh to place supplies of clothing, etc.

At a meeting of the trunk line passenger committee held In New York on Tuesday, the Pennsylvania Railroad advanced a proposition to carry passengers in day coaches from New York and Philadelphia to Chicago and return for $15 and $13 respectively. The re duction In fare was strongly urged by the representative of tbe Pennsylvania Road at the meeting in order that everybody mlebt be able to visit tbe big Exposition, but all tbe other lines opposed It and tbe reduction was voted down for the present. The Horse Fell on Him. Ernest Bormoth, 23 years of age, a baker, of 520 Poplar street, was delivering bread yesterday morning, when tbe horse came to a sud den standstill, pitching him out.

FREE ART SCHOLARSHIPS. Examinations to be Held for Ten Vacancies. By virtue of the free scholarships it has established at tbe Pennsylvania Museum and (School of Industrial Art and the Philadelphia School of Design for Women the Board of Education makes a special declaration in favor of popular art education. Until recent years art, even in its most elementary form, has been rather boycotted, to borrow from popular vernacular by educators. The Independence of our manufacturors upon the artistic character of their productions and the necessity for brain power and hand skill in their preparation has done much toglve impetus to popular art education, and the awakened interest is being generally manifested throughout the country and in our own city by the preparation of new courses of drawing in sympathy with the spirit of tbe times and adapted to the purposes of those farthest reaching of educators, the nubile schools.

The Introduction of elementary training In the applied arts, such as clay work and wood carving, will do much to foster the masse ment. While thlsU being done to infuse more of the spirit oflhe beautiful Into the schools generally, the Board of Education places Its finger immediately on the pulse of art life through its system of free scholarships. Ten scholarships in the School of Design and five more at tbe School of Industrial Art, covering a four years' course of Instruction, are offered every year to fifteen pupils who attain the highest record In the annual competition of students Irom the grammar schools of the city. The examination of candidates for the ten vacant scholarships In the School of Design for Women will be held in the school building, S. W.

corner Broad and MaRterstreets, on Monday and Tuesday, September 18 and 19, at 0. A. M. Candidates will be present both days. Tbe examination of candidates for tbe five vacant scholarships In the Pennsylvania Mu-sum and School of Industrial Art will be held In the school building, Broad and Pine Btreeta, on Thursday, October at 10 A.

Kotithern Pacific's Big Mortgage. The proposed issue of a blanket mortgage for $89,000,000 on Southern Pacific is con firmed at the company's oflice.

The bonds are to be issued only on the California division, covering about two thousand miles of road, and property estimated to have cost over $100,000,000.

Emma Goldman, who was indicted by the grand jury for making wild speeches to tho idle workingmcn, was in General Sessions, Part III, this morning, awaiting the arrival of Recorder Smyth, who was to set a day for her trial. Before court opened Miss Goldman sat outside the rail of the court room calmly surveying every one who entered. She refused to speak to reporters, referring them to her counsel, Hugh O. Pentecost, the ex-clergyman. As soon as Recorder Smyth took his seat on the bench Assistant District Attorney Mc-Intyre called Emma Goldman to the bar.

The prisoner walked with a firm step and stared defiantly at the Recorder throughout the proceedings. Mr. Melntvre asked the Recorder to set the day of Miss Goldman's trial for September 28. Mr. Pentecost objected to such an early date.

"The case is an easy one to prepare," the Recorder answered, and he refused to change the date. Miss Goldman, accompanied by her counsel, then left the court room for the Tombs. An Eminent Rabbi Dead. Rabbi Henry S. Jacobs, D.

Dyspepsia's distress la icHrved by Hood Sarsa- paruia It has cored maay severe case A Complete King, With Crown and Scoptrot Tamed Ont at tho Reason ablo rharge of Two Dollars a Night, A MohNeodod Man In Amsttar Theatricals and tbeireh Kntartalnmeals. It has been asserted more than once that tho impressive air of majesty and the awesome solemnity clinging about some of our most Important dignitaries are, as Dickens in imitably says, "more matter of coat and waistcoat than some people imagino." What would king be without his crown or a policeman without his uniform "Men; mere men," n'pliea the same quaint authority. This being so, it will readily be seen what an important station ordinary dressmakers and tailors occupy, but there is another class of clothing manufacturers who, even here where royalty is not the fashion, are as much Kingmakers as was the celebrated Earl Warwick in bis day that is, so far as "dress makes tho man." They call themselves costumers and if they conform to the usual custom of their brothers in tbe profession, they will engage to turn any applicant out ft complete king with sceptre, crown and other insignia of office, all at the very reasonable charge of two dollars a night. It is a melancholy thing to see so much majesty lying idle. On that shelf there lies the velvet dress weighted down with bullion fringe and heavy lace, the luxuriant wig and tbe false calves which won Id constitute their wearer at once ft Spanish courtier, with nil tho glory and magnificence somehow attendant on those who follow in tho train of royalty.

The cos turner does not confine hirosotf strictly to making kings, but will turn out any other sort of grandee upon demand and not limiting his art to any particular clime or century. Ho is as familiar with the cut of Columbus' coat as with the primitive fighting gear of the early Saxons or the graceful attire of a Pompeiian dancing girl. When catering to the tastes of more masqueradcrs he is less particular regarding nersonalitv or nation ality, and the aforesaid Spanish courtier's outfit hits been made to appear equally well as the holiday attire of an English peer of tho fourteenth century. Chain armor, too, is equally adjustable, and with proper accessories in the shape of helmets, battle axes, can be perfectly at home either as orthodox, antique, coat of mail, or, minus these additions, can fit them- selves to the Kukuana warriors in King Solomon's Mines." Handsome votVet and satin dresses, richly trimmed with gold and silver in quaint designs, but of strictly neutral style, soem to be part of every oostumcr's stock in trade. A sort of safe investment by which he can gratify the demand for fantastic coloring and the cutter of false gems by means of slight alteration for the varying of appearance.

But the real cos turner does not cater alone to masqueraders. Instead he aims at tbe absolute portrayal of character, and this is where art enters into his profession. An actor must dress his part as well as act it, and anguished participants private theatricals alter committing their parts to memory fly to the costumer for assistance in the important matter of dress and fling themselves upon his mercy. If time and place whore the plot is laid aro explained to him he will immediately prescribe appropriate attire for the characters required, albeit the perversity of human nature sometimes interferes with the realistic effect at which he would arrive. "A man coom In here one day," relates one of these costumers with twinkling eyes and a strong accent, and he say to me: Geef mo a suit of the German I geof him a suit of the German Emperor and he say: Och I do not like that 1 Get I say to him.

the German Emperor dress like von soldier. I cannot geef yon his medals; I gcef you yon soldier He say: Poof! It is too What should I do? I piece tbe suit I cover it down the front with gold and silver and jewels. He put it on and then he say: 'Och! Now I am the German Shaking his head at the recollection, the costumer goes on And then dose ladees They coom to me and say, I want von court dress of the fcefteenth I get it out, I show it them it ees perfect They look at it and what you call it? pout. They try it on, aud perhaps they want freels on Che skirt and the sleeves to stand up high. No use I say to them, 'It is They say to me, But it is not I geef them what they want I make eet more stylish and with those freels and 6leeves ah, what a thought they act court ladees of the feefteenth century." The costumer warms with his subject and his eyes aro flashing, Von man ah, why do such fools live with a gesture of utter contempt "he coom tome and say, 'This night the landing of Columbus ees to bo depicted give me a Columbus Well, I geef it him.

It ees not gaudy, but it ees true to heestory. He dislike it; he will not have it. I say to him, 'How do Columbus He does not know anything of that, but the dress is von horror. So I dress him in blue satin and scarlet velvet, with a powered wig and jeweled sword, and I think if Columbus had landed here like that he would have scared dose savages." Honest indignation shines in the costum- er's face as be tells of a different phase of masquerading insanity. At New Year's time," he says, people of little money come and offer me soomtimes more than yon hundred dollars for a suit to parade in.

Von huckster he say If I pay you for my suit I sell my horse and I tell him You let the suit alone much Then he gets angry and says it ees none of my beesiness if I get my mooney, so I geef him yon magnificent costume, purple and cloth of gold gold it ees no gold. He wear it New Year's night, and well with a shrug I get my money, but I hear that he has lost his horse and wagon and ees turned out upon the side-walk." With reference to the patterns of costumes the costumer explained that a theatrical cut is distinct from any other sort of clothing, fancy dresses being so arranged that adjustment at the shoulder and under the arm will make them conform to almost any figure. As regards their lasting qualities it appears that some costumes will stand steady use for fifteen or twenty years, while others are worn out In twelve or fifteen months. This, of course, is according to the hands they fall into and the usage they receive. Catholic Sisters patronize the costumer for children's fancy dresses for the entertainments in which the little ones take part, and all kinds of church festivals, of course, come under his jurisdiction as regards appropriate habiliments, but in addition to this professional followers of Thespinsseek his aid in tbe same direction.

To meet this necessity he has dresses for more than- one complete opera and popular theatre piece ready in stock, and he can relate many interesting incidents of how, at short notice, he must pack up the outfit perhaps of an entire company and have it on hand in time for the performance. Perhaps it may not get there until 8 o'clock, and then while the orchestra discourses one or two additional selections the performers assume their dresses and tbe curtain goes up after a scarcely noticeable delay. Then he receives orders to manufacture costumes for tbe presentation of some new attraction, and by enlarging bis force of employes and straining every point through, perhaps, ft week of labor he is just ablo to mako tho time- Tbe work room, with its pile of velvet satin, tinsel and colored glass, tossed together, is, after all, the king-maker's abode, and these sallow-faced men and women, THE EXTRA ASSESSMENT nctnrn.
