He elealt with tho progress of educa tion outside of thu cities and treated tho subject erv fully. The bubject was dis cussed In ten-minute talks. Ilie message, of President Black closed the exercises of U10 evening. During hLs address President 151-ick, in discussing tlementary education, said In part: One of the first things that will lmprovo the educational work in the country Is Rood roads. I shall not undertake to un fold this, taking It for granted that every body who knows anv thing about country roaus and country schooltiou-cs. and tlm dtihculties that children have in getting to and fio. will readily appreciate that ontt of tho things to foster regularity of at tendance and punctuality of attendance, and delight in school work, will be the im provement of the thoroughfares that lead from the homes of the children to tho rlaco where they are taught. A second general aid to educational work In the country will be rural free delivery. The extension of mall facilities will tend to build up not only correspondence of the. country but the reading habits of country people, and this will Indirectly influence their Interest In tho educational work of Uie country- A third thing that Is very important Is the reformation of tho elircctory of tho exuntry school. When country school teach ers are employed simply because they are tho children of some one of the directors, or will board with some one of tho direc tors, or for some such reason a.s that, tho efficiency of the school is let down to a very low standard. Another thing that Is very Important is the regeneration of the county Institute. Tho institute must bo changed In Its theoretical relation to the educational sys tem. It must be changed in the character of tho work which it will undertake and per form, it must change in its inlluenco upen tho teachers who attend and upon the spirit which It Is to Inculcate while they are In it. What tho country needs is better teach ers, and better teachers In the tense of more thoroughly prepared teachers, men and women who are professional teachers who have entered teaching as a profession, as ministers enter the ministry as a profes sion, and as doctors enter the meaical pro fession, and as lawyers enter tho attorney's profession, men and women who devote themselves to this because they conceive It to be a great field of usefulness, one that requires all of tlieir efforts and one also that will repav them In good, honest money for the timo and talent which they invest In the work.

Scttlerrent of tho dispute with Turkey arising out ot her non payment of the American missionary claims Ins at lit been nccompllshetl. Advices confirmatory of the signing by the Subllmo Porie and a reprosentatlvo of the Cramps of a contract for a small cruis er, under cover of which the claims are to be paid, liavo been received by the Stata Department from Mr. Gtjscom. the Amer ican Chargo d'Affaires, and the authorities are consequently highly cratlfitd. It is tho expectation of tho State Depart ment that the Cramps, under the terms of this opera bouffe nrrangemeat. will Imme diately forward to Secretary Hay the sum of $.0li0. and Its receipt will close the Inci dent. It Is held at tho Navy Department that the xisit of the battleship Kentucky had much to do with determining tho action of tho Sultan. This Is tho first case en record of International claims being settlcel through a privato contract awarde.1 to a citizen ot tho country making the claim. Number Estimated at Thirty Thou sand now the Disease iWas Introduced. Washington. Dec 25 An appended re port to General Mac-Arthur's review of the civil affairs) of the Philippines for the past fiscal year gives sorao rather startling facts regarding tho Introduction and prevalence of leprosy In tho Islands. According to the estimates of tho Fran ciscan Fathers, says Major Guy L. Edle, tho writer of the report there are no less than 50,000 lepers In the arohlpolago. the major portion of these being in the Vls ayas. Leprosy was Introduced In 1633. when tho Emperor of Japnn sent a ship with ICO lepers on board to tho Philippines as a present to bo cared for by the Cath olic priests. Thus tho seed was planted, and, as no practical methods ever wero adopted to eradicate the disease or prevent its spread, it has taken firm root. A houso-to-hou-o Inflection, begun last January, found moro than a hundred leperH concealed In dwell ings. Theso w ere rent ter San Lazaro Hos pital, In Manila, but many others escaped into the surrounding country. A commis sion Is now engageel In the work of select ing a suitable island or Islands for the pur pose ot Isolating all the lepers in the archipelago.
