THE GATHERING OF EDUCATORS AT MADisoN-ovER
5000 PERSONS IN ATTENDANCE.
Correspondence of The EVENING STAR
MADISON, Wis. July 81 am not certain but
that majority Of your readers would be more in
terested in the description OF a horse race base
ball game or prize fight, than OF an educational
convention; yet must believe thar there are many
Intelligent readers Of your popular paper who will
be interested to learn few more facts about the
largest educational convention ever held in any
country.
Not less than 5000 persons, from outside this
city, nave been In attendance Nearly 5000 have
paid the membership fee OF 81 each; and since our
last annual gathering at Saratoga nifty persons
have been made life members by the payment of
$2O each; so that, financially the success OF this
annual meeting Is unprecedented This success Is
chiefly attributable to the efforts and labOrs OF
hon. L. w. B1Cknell, editor and publisher of the
New England Journal Of Education and OF other
valuable educational periodicals. in Boston
me general association, with its eight depart
ments, VIZ: Elementary, higher, normal, superln-
tendent, Industrial, art, Kindergarten, and even
musical departments, in addition to the National
Council OF Education is surely destined to become
an important factor in the work OF training and
elevating the rising generation OF our country.
mink there were representatives from
ance; and the intellectual and moral character of
the asseanblage was OF the highest order
could say much more, but will close by saying
that there Is a good prospect OF having the next
next annual gathering at the White sulphur

DUDES' DUELS.

In giving the particulars Of the
GEBHARDT- LIyINGsTONE club quar-
rel in New York, the Mail AID
Express says an old club member
told one of its reporters, chow,
many years ago, Mr.. NEALE had
. dispute with another member in one
of the club windows. Tue pair went
down to North Carolina, fought a duel,
not q fatal one, returned to New York,
and the proceedings did not become
bers until years afterward."
That was an old fashioned way of go
ing about the business. Now a-days
the first thing a duelist does is to send
his seconds around to the newspapers
with ali tue correspondence and gossip
about the affair. Next the diplomatist-
of the clubs take up the question and
arrange a settlement. Then the whole
party of noodles indulge in q series o.
each ling calculations about the bravery
and chivslry of the principals.
An affsir OF that kind furnishes z 30
sip enough to keep an average fashion
able club ehattering away for six
months. And the worst Of it is that
"the affair got into the papers, by
Jawge, Deuced bore, isn't it?" Yet
the gIlded dudes enjoy it in their feeble
way, and suck away at their canes in
paana
