An Educational Need.

Knoxville Chronicle
In a recent editorial in the educa-
tional column of the Rogersville Spec
tator, written, we believe, by one of
the most efficient and successful edu-
Gators in the state, Rev. A. w. Will
son, we find the following:
In the higher departments of educs-
ton, Tennessee is now taking fair
rank. In a number of communities
good schools are already established.
The great trouble with most of these
institutions is the desire to take the
name and course of study of colleges.
We need several well-graded high
schools in every county, hut we need
but few colleges. This tendency is a
burden to many schools. To have the
college curriculum taught requires
more teachers than the income of the
school will support, and the result is,
many schools drag out a weary exist
ence under the name Of a college
which would flourish and prove a
blessing if their managers were willing
for them to be simply high schools
or academies.
We have long felt the truth of what
is here stated. There are too many
educational institutions in the state,
struggling under the name Of colleges,
which might easily succeed, and prove
far more useful and practical were
they less p~retentious. A boy cannot
be made a man simply by dressing
him up in mems clothing. An insti-
tuition of learning cannot be a college,
and be successfully managed as such,
unless it has a faculty to teach the
college curriculum. Such a faculty
costs money. 1t would be far better
for us if we could have more high
schools and academies well supported
and fewer, but better patronized, as
they would be, colleges and univer-
stiles. The extract printed above from
the Spectator is sound doctrine.

Sensational Breach Of Promise
Suit.
Louisville Post. May III

Louisville Post, May IL
At indianapolis a sensational breach
of promise suit, which has been hang
ing fire for months, was placed on jury
trial in the circuit court Friday. The
plaintiff is Miss Rebecca Rothschild,
a Jewish girl, with much of the tradi
tioHal beauty of her race, and the de-
PENDANT is Thomas N. Dickson, a
wealthy lumber dealer, who married a
wealthy Ohio lady after the alleged
betrothal to Miss Rothschild. The
Rothschild- Dickson love making be-
gan at a tender age for the plaintiff,
and it wa originally claimed in the
complaint that her seduction was &C.
complished under promise of mar
riage. Under the ruling Of the court,
however, it was held that her seduc-
ton must constitute a separate bill,
and could not be considered in con-
n%eetion with the claim for breach oil
promise. Hence the trial was shorn
at the beginning of salacious
and sensational features and is

"WHo furnishes the money!" cry
the advocates Of the 1908 so-called
settlement, when they allude to a
move to test the constitutionality Of
that act. Perhaps it might be asked
who furnished the money to run the
high takers in the last canvass, and to
lobby through a measure that no man
would have dared to advocate six
months ago. Perhaps it is natural for
some Of them to inquire, who fur
nishes the money!" and to run after
the man supposed to disburse the
funds. The inquiry suggests a famil-
iarity with methods that are usually
kept dark and known only to a favored
few who understand addition, d.
vision, and silence" 1t may be very
hard to find out who furnishes the
money in the dark transactions OF the
men who conspired to commit a politi-
cal rape upon the commonwealth of
Tennessee, but it is easy enough to
point out the men who will furnish
the money to enrich nOn-resi-
dent b~ondholders if this in
famous scheme is carried out. The
farmers, the mechanics, merchants and
all who labor with hand or brain, who
add to the wealth of the state, whether
they pay taxes directly or indirectly,
will pay tribute if this law stands of
their life blood to carry out the de-
signs of a reckless and audacious ring.
Men supported this measure in all
honesty of purpose, without being
bribed or pecuniarily interested, but
others knew it was a gigantic crime,
and must have been astOunded at
their success, gained cOrruptly, yet in
the name Of decency and state credit.
There will be a day Of reckoning yet;
the tax collector will come. around
and the people be brought to feel
most keenly the wrong put upon them.
THE mills Of the gods grind slowly,
but grind exceeding fine"

Vicksburg Commercially
If Mr.. Huntingdon makes a connec-
ton with Memphis, and desires to ex-
tend his line west to Texas, he has a
much better route before him than
through Arkansaw. Let him build
the Vicksburg and Memphis road, a
road which will traverse the best cot
ton region the sun shines on, and
which is capable Of producing more
cotton than the entire cotton
area of the south now produces.
In addition to being the finest cotton
region on the globe, it is not surpassed
by Illinois, IndiaRa or Ohio as a
corn country, and as a cattle raising
country it is equal to Texas. In ad.
dition to all this there is a mine Of
wealth in the shape of the best timber
in the world, and if Mr.. huntington
desires to make a connection with
Texas, he has only to build the Vicks-
burg & Memphis railroad, and then he
will have direct connection here with
the V~icksburg, Shreveport & Pacific,
and the entire railway system OF the
southwest.

An Evil Omen.

London Telegraph
OF the strange stories connected
with the melancholy fate of Alexan-
der ii that have obtained currency
since his death not the least curious
is the following narrative, published
in the St. Petersburg Beehive, and
alleged by that journal to DE in every
particular authentic; One morning
about a fortnight before the catastro-
phe of the 18th ult., while looking out
of his bedroom window, the dead czar
noticed two or three dead pigeons ly-
ing on the ledge of the balcony.
As the imperial pigeons, like those
of the piazza di San Marco in Venice,
are privileged birds, his majesty, dis
pleased that they should have been
slain within the very precincts of his
palace, ordered an inquiry to be made
as to show how they had come by their
death. 1t was sOon discovered that a
huge hawk had taken up it quarters
in some out-of-the-way nook of the
winter palace roof, and, emerging
thence every morning at dawn, it
made a regular practice of thinning
out the emperor's flock Of pigeons.
Imperial commands were issued that
this inveterate columbicide should be
watched for and shot, but the hawk
contrived to evade the violence of the
domestics charged with lis destruct-
ion, and continued to kill its two,
three or four pigeons daily with abso-
Lutte impunity.
A powerful trap was therefore bait
ed and set for it upon the roof, and
early next morning it was seen
from below caught by the leg, and
struggling with all its might TO get
loose. Before the servants could
reach the spot to put an end to the
fierce bird agony, it had dragged the
heavy trap over the edge of the para
pet, and fallen with it upon the paw.
ing of an inner courtyard, overlooked
by the imperial apartments. Wher
the emperor was informed that the
hawk had met its death in this strange
manner he appeared much disturbed
in mind, and observed several times
to his attendants that "the whole af
fair was of evil omen"
