The defendant Clark said he joined the party
looking for freshman cider; that the party con-
sisted of five sophomores and two ju niors; that
they passed down in front of Appleton Hall
and up to Strout's room; saw Strout standing
in the doorway of the bedroom holding
handkerchief to his eye. He said his failure
to take notice of Strout's condition was not
heartless Indifference for he did not know how
badly Strout was hurt.
In the conversation with the defendant Brad
ley he said he went out to help intercept the
freshmen coming into the grounds; that the
clock struck ten while the party was ont for
that purpose; that seven of them went to Ap-
pleton Hall and in passing to the south end
they passed in front of the building; that one
of the parties sSstepped round the southeast
corner of the hall to see whether there was
light in Strout's room
1t was asked who Bradley stated went round
to see if the room was lighted, which was ex-
cluded by the Court.
Packard, one of the defendants said he
stepped round the corner of the bailding to see
if there was light in Strout's room. | asked
him II he could not see sufficiently from the
steps as he approached the end. He said one
window could be seen bat he could see better
by stepping back and away from the corner
whether both OF Strout's rooms were lighted.
He said he went up stairs and assisted in
searching Strout'S room aud subsequently, went
to other rooms
Pettengil, one of the defendants, admitted
that he was with the party during portion of
the time.
Smith stated that they went into the
room of a freshman by the name of Lee and
required him to go through certain perform
ances such as reading Latin in the new-fash
Toned way, and into another room occupied by
Goodenough and made him play the flute or
sing.
On cross-examination the witness stated that
there were about one hundred and thirty stu
dents in college at this time. Strout,s rooms
have one window on the end and three on the
building and bushes coming nearly IN TO the
building. | asked every one of these defend
ants II he threw the stone through
Strout's window and each one denied
it. On learning of the injury went immedi-
ately to Strout's room and he said that he was

"TAFFYn

Since hearing members IF the insti-
tute extol the use of "taffy" in the
school room we've been looking in the
dictionary for the term, but failed to
find that kind of ''taffy," Probably
because the dictionary does call things
by their correct names.
Are not teachers walking dictionaries.
which are daily examined for the sieni-
ticatlon of words and, acts ?
When the pupil discovers (and the
discovery will Gomez that he is "being
fed tatfy Go yoI think that his respect
for the teacher, who administers the
dose, will lesson or increase -? Do YOU
think this discovery will add 10. or take
from his faith III the truth of humanity?
"Man's faith in man" is the basis of
most that is great in mans achievement
What Is there of use or beauty in a
form nurtured upon sweetmeats (gen.
uine tafy.) Does such nour1sbment
produce the sparkling eye, the rosy
cheek that we gaze, with delight, upon Z?
Does ii give muscular vigor, add
strength to grace, usefulness to beauty ?
Ii 1t does not do this for the physical
organization, why need we expect it to
for the mental ?
Oftentimes, when we've seen, the ma
chinery of other school rooms, move SO
smoothly, and noticed that the chief
lubrcator used was "taffy," have we
thought if onl y we dared use it {? But
almost invariably have we observed,
later, that the onward plane of pro
erosion had downward inclination
from that regard for strict morality and
truth, which is the only firm foundation
to raise superstructure upon. Pupils
so trained will deviate considerably from
the line of truth to secure the good will
of an influential person.

SEHOOL GOVERNMENT.

: School government is that system OF
laws and principles by which teach
er controls his pupils. The end of all
efficient school government is to secure
in the school room the proper condi-
ton for the child's moral, mental and
physical growth. The love and re-
spect of the pupils, good order, proper
physical exercise-without these the
organization would be imperfect, ex-
hibiting only a chaotic, disorderIy
crowd of children. In regard to OBJ
tanning and preserving the control of
a school, the following are suggestions 4:
lst. Convince your pupils that you
are their friend, you can soon do this
If you are in earnest. Byyour actions
and words show that you are interest
ed in their welfare. Just as long as the
little ones know this they will often
do right to win smile of approval
from the teacher, though not the high
est motive for well-doing, demands our
grave consideration.
I'd. Keep the children constantly
busy. A study program will materially
aid in doing this; but program alone
is not sufficient. at each recitation in
struct the pupil how to study the sue
ceeding lesson, and you will soon dis
cover that idleness on their part has
not always been a result of unwilling
ness. While teaching your pupils how
to work, Undue them with love for
their studies. The activity of mind
and body which has all the while so
distressed you, you will now find in a
high degree satisfactory.
Sd. Study and obey the laws govern
ing physical exercise, A long lecture
Gliding pupils for their inattention
and stupidity often fails of its desired
effect while if some simple movement
exercises were for few moments re
sorted to the transformation would be
almost magical, causing the bright
blood to go bounding through their
veins, or as little fellow once aptly
expressed it, make them feel as if theV
had "been made over neW.n
10 the above injunctions many
more might be added, but suffice to
say II the school be conducted in such
a manner that the, children grow
mentally, morally and physically, the
choOI-government will be found to
give but little difficulty.

This is the most important office the
people are called upon to fill this fall,
although the fees of the office are light
the possibilities for good or evil are
great. Interest of vital Importance
are intrusted to his care, such as the
appointment of guardi ans, admins
traitors, settlement of estates, trying
ho6eos corpus cases, contest in election
&C., and it should be filled by man of
good business ability as well as a man
of sterling honesty and integrity. We
are all Liable to die' and the spectre
of injudicious management of
what little effects we have is no pleas
ant thing to contemplate, and still less
pleasant for our wives and children.
We hope our convention will act wise
