'"Fsssssss. ss ~. ss.!!owiHs letter received from
Prof. J. l.. Winton, in reference to
the Teachers Institute to be held at
Jonesboro, on the 20th. inst, we
publish in full, deeming it better
than any personal appeal we might
make toward securing an attendance
from Mississippi county;
POLLARD, ARKANSAS,
July 20, 1883.
DEAR SIR: The Institute for this
Judicial District convcnes at Jones'
boro on the 10th. of August, and |
desire to solicit your cooperation in
prevailing upon the teachers to at
tend.
Prof. Russell, who has been ap-
pointed with me to hold the Institute
is a fine tcao her, and all who hear
his lectures will be benefited.
Each teacher will have an oppor-
tunity to give his opinion on each
subject discussed.
The aim of these institutes is the
improvement of the teachers in eve
thing that pertains to the discharge
of their professional duties, whether
in the school-room or outside of it.
Having no Normal School in the
State, the only opportunity for pro
fessional improvement to our teach
ers, is through these Institutes.
Observation has shown that where
one teacher fails from want of llnowl-
edge of the text books to be taught,
ten fail from want Of understanding
the best methods of teaching, of or
ganization, and of school discipline.
These meetings Of teachers are pow
cifully stimulative of a higher degree

ment; each can study the superior
traits Of all the others, can compare
himself with others-will learn that
the best is not perfect, that the poor
est have some traits worthy to be
commended, and will be enabled to
make a correct estimate Of them
selves, to learn their own weak points,
and then by daily watchfulness to
strengthen them. "Know thyself,
thy weakness as thy strength, and
trials cannot harm thee"
No great undertaking can contin-
uously prosper without the sympa-
thy and support of the public, the
great public. The prompt atten-
dance of all the teachers upon Insti-
tutes and all other available means
Of improvement will soon convince
the people that there is difference
between TEACHING SCHOOL and
KEEPING scHooL-and the social
standing of the teacher will be ele-
vated-his salary increased, and his
field Of usefulness enlarged.
The institutes enables the teach
ers attending to form agreeable ac-
quaintainces, to compare views and
give each other the benefit of their
individual experiences in school
work. 1t unites them in bonds Of
common interest and fraternal SYM
pathy. 1t leads to harmony of
purpose and unity of action, which
will enable the teachers TO influence
public sentiment in favor of reform
ing and improving our public school
system, and advancing the schools
III the line OF true progress.
The outgrowth of a studious at
tendance upon the Institutes win
give greater freedom to the teacher,
from the development of the con-
scious ability to do good work; the
character of the teaching will be i'm
proved; the reputation of the teacher
built up, his power increased, his so
cial condition elevated, and his sala-
ry increased.
Hoping to meet you and large
attendance of teachers from your
county, l am

10 thc Ladies OfArkansas. =.

In order to carry out the plan
adopted by the Commissioners Of Ar
kansas at the Louisville Exposition,
our town has been assessed ten dol
lars, very small amount, for the
purpose of assisting in decorating
the State Department. Mississippi
County, so far, has not, to our knowl-
edge, contributed anything toward
the Exsosition. This appeal is made
to the Ladies. Will not some of our
ladies, take this matter in charge.
The following is the appeal to the
Ladies of Arkansas.
LOUISVILLE, KY; Aug. 1883.
You will be proud to learu that
our State has, in many respects, the
most Creditable display at The Great
Southern Exposition. This display
has been made principally by the
men of Arkansas.
We now call upon the ladies of
our state 10 decorate our depart
ment with flowers. This will take
some money and a good many flow
ers.
Your town has been assessed 80.
Do you want to be represented in
these decorations? If So. raise the
amount or some amount at once. 1t
can easily be done as has been de-
monstrated by the prompt reports
sent in from other towns. The
above amount is necessary to build
fountain and stand. Send in ad-
dition either flowers or the money
to buy them. Send all money to us
and all flowers to S. II. Nowlin,
Care Ark. Department, Exposition,
Louisville, Ky.
We trust it will be your pleasure
to have the ladies ofyour town rep
resented and to that end will act
Immediately.
Very Truly Yours,
HAMILTON & HAYS.

Our Exposition letter.
Special to the Osceola TIMES:

/
LOUISVILLE, KY; Aug. l 1888.
The great event has taken place.
Louisville has immortalizcd herself
by bringing, unaided, to successful
beginning one Of the most stupendous
enterprises ever undertaken. I ver-
lily believe Louisville is surprised at
her own strength. Atlanta last year,
at her Exposition, that was not to
compare to this, passed around her
hat all over the north for aid, but
Louisville says: ave want an Expo
sition, great Exposition, and it will
take 100000 to start it. Shall we
have it?' The people met, the mon
cy is subscribed, and the great Ex-
position is from the first an unquali-
fed success. The enterprise has out
grown all expectation. The fifteen
acres Of space that is under roof, has
all been taken and the demand for
more is most pressing. Eight times
the regular price is freely offered for
the privilege of Displaying products.
Arkansas is most for'ana'e Il ~,
curing large space in the most de-
sirable part of the building. We
are at the North entrance right
against the Park nearer the Art Gal
lery than any other State. Our next
neighbors are Tennessee and Ala
bama. 1t would do you good to see
how Arkansas, "the daughter of
Tennessee" has outgrown her moth
cr. But wait-Let us tell you some
thing more about the main features
of the Exposition. The opening
took place at 1920 o'clock to-day.
We have not asscertaincd the num-
ber present, but it was very great.
Louisville and all Kentucky were
out in holiday apparel. Pres. Ar
thur, Sec. Lincoln, Sec. Folgcr, p.
M. Gen. Gresham, Gen. Sherman
and wife and real Senators, Congress
men, Generals and Colonies without
number are here. The illuminations
tonight are something never to be
forgotten. The City is decorated
lavishly. No business is doing.
The Courier Journal says: "Any
man who is heard talking business
to-day shall be taken up and fined,
and imprisoned without mercy"
Atprecisely 1920 o'clock, President
Arthur and his distinguished party
filed into the Exposition building
and after an address of Welcome, by
the Mayor of Louisville, he made a
short inaugural address, full of good
cheer and expressions of kindly in
tercst; at precisely II 40 o'clock he
reached up and pulled sllken cord
which set in motion the vast Sleep
ling Palace, The ponderous engines,

The Osceola times., 1883-08-11

WE have been greatly amused, of
late, watching the frantic efforts of
the Gazette to deliver the Arkansas
Congressional delegation over to
Carlisle for. Speaker. The "Old
Lady" seems to have some success,
but has signally failed in her con-
tract, as far as our representative is
concerned. In fact Col. Dunn does
not deliver worth cent, which state
Of affairs causes much weeping,
wailing and gnashing of teeth in the
Gazette office.
Col. Dunn has not nonorcd us
with a communication giving his
views of the speakership, nor do we
know who he will vote for. We, in
connection with his constituency, of
the first district, have perfect faith
in the soundness of his judgement
and integrity, and lcei sa'is%sial fs,ssas
our knowledge of him, that he will
never ieopardizc the interests of true
democracy or that Of the people he
represents.
There are several reasons why we
don't think Col. Dunn could vote for
Carlisle for Speaker: One is, he is a
confirmed inebriate; that of itself
should disqualify him for 50 impor-
tant position.
Secondly, He is the author of the
infamous whiskey bill, which if it
becomes law, will take S70,O0O,OOO
of revenue from the government, as
a tax on whiskey.
Thirdly, He is opposed to the i'm
provement of the Mississippi river,
so as to protect the valley from de-
structive floods. '"' =" .''''''''-
We make the statements upon
what we consider good authority, and
as Col. Dunn is associated, daily, for
nine months in the year with Mr..
Carlisle, he must be aware of these
facts, and under the circumstances,
he would be recreapt to his trust
were he to vote for any such a man.
We are not for Randall, as his record
on the question of improving the
Mississippi river is no better than
that of Carlisle. We hope some
such man as Morrison, of Illinois,
will be brought out and elected. We
believe that Col. Dunn would and
should vote for such a man. Should
however, the contest for speakership
be between Carlisle and Randall, as
everything now indicates, we sec no
reason why a democrat, working in
the interest of his constituency,
should be threatened with political
grave, because he is compelled to
make a choice Of two evils Of equal
gravity. But, as we remarked at
the outset, we have no authority to
speak for our representative. In the
mean time, the Gazette should keep
cool, and save her energies for the
Fall campaign. 1t might also re-
member that Col. Dunn was fighting
the battles Of Democracy when its
editor was a "small boy" in Mem
phis.

Java and It's Volcanoes.

There are about fifty volcanoes on the
island of Java, which Ia 630 miles long by
So to 100 miles broad. Earthquake shocks
are frequent, and volcanic eruptions have,
from time TO time. spread death and dis
aster around. In 1922 an eruption of
Mount Gelung-gung destroyed IA villages
and 900 people. In 1913 Mount Guntur
threw out sand and askes day and night,
covering plantations and villages, and csus-
ing an awful destruction of human life. In
1867 earthquake shocks rocked and rent
the island, and in the town of Jokjokarba
alone thousands of lives were lost. In
1878 and 1879 there were destructive
earthquakes. But none of these disasters
was to be compared with that of the latter
part of August, details of which are still
wanting The scene of the disaster is the
extreme western end of the island, where
the Straits of Sunda rolls sixty miles in
width between Java and Sumatra. The
location of the volcanoes which have
worked such awful havoc ia the province of
Bantam. The southern portion of the
coast, which borders the strait, is
high and rocky, ascending through the for.
ests of the interior towards the Hottest
submits, where the fires of the great vol.
CauOSS L opSuuay any dbu OununS hSIshS
burn continually. Toward the north there
are wide plains terminating in extensive
marshes which are washed by the waters of
the strait. On these plains were many
villages, and here was the city of Bantam,
formerly the capital of the province, popu-
lous and thriving, but some years ago de-
serted for the safer and healthier location
of Serang, where large trade is carried
on. 1t is the low land of the province of
Bantam which has been covered many feet
deep by the ashes from the volcanoes, and
it was along its coast that rivers of lava
flowed into the strait and terrible rush Of
water from the sea overwhelmed all the
coast, sweeping away dwellings, light
houses and Government buildings, and re-
tired charged with vast freight of death
and ruin The loss of life is estimated as
high as 100000. 1t may not have been
more than half that number.-[The Mas
