grades was thoroughly reviewed and
suggestions received for its further per-
fection. The debate was long, and gave
opportunity for much eloquence and
the expression of many excellent
thoughts.
w. A. Bell, whose connection with
the Indiana School Journal has given
him SO much notoriety, was next intro
duced. He remarked that although
teachers often spend periods of time In
the preparation of SELF for the great
work of teaching, they as often neglect
to study the mind and character of the
child, which is necessity not to be
obviated. The idea should come be-
fore the word, that is the mind of the
pupil should first contain a picture of
which the word is the visible express
sion. Ideas sustain the same relation
to thoughts that words do to sentences.
Ideas are the elements of thought.
When We read, the eye takes in very
rapidly number OF words, each CORE
and we have a grouping Of these
pictures brought from the store house
of the brain. This course of teaching
or briefly defined, the plan of building
up thought in the mind of learner,
is denominated inductive teaching.
Following the recess came a contin
uance of the discussion of the course of
study measures being brought before
the house and passed for the further re-
vision of this instrument.
Many visitors were present and have
been in the habit of attending the ses-
sions, which interest manifested, has
been no iuconsiderable source of en-
couragement to the teachers.

his name, was very largely attended,
particularly by old people. We are not

Early indications regarding the bust
ness of the State Fair for this season
are fattering, and in connection with
the bountiful crops give assurance to the
management that it will be better than
ever.
The Fair will commence on Monday,
September 18th. The entry books, ex-
cept of the speed ring, will close the
Saturday previous. All stock and ar
ticles must be in place Monday fore
noon, the first day. Experience has
demonstrated the importance of prompt
ness and early preparation. Special at
fractions will be provided to make each
day equally interesting. 1t will be a
strictly Agricultural Fair and Farmers
Annual Festival.
Tuesday of the Fair will be Indiana
School Children's day; free tickets
issued for that purpose. No fees tor
display of exhibits, but every convent
ence for exhibitors and the comfort OF
visitors. Merit alone governs awards.
Premiums have always been paid in
full. More improvements ordered to
provide for the increased show in the
live stock department. 1t is estimated
that 81 100000 of machinery and
81 SOC, 900 Of live stock will be on exhi-
bition. The amount of business by
sales amounts to millions, and the

Perhaps the most culpable, because
the most responsible, of the men who
have stimulated the gambling mania are
the bankers who supply the capital with
out which these transactions could not
be carried through the exchange under
the guise of transfers of stock. These
bankers know very well that the bust
ness would be regarded by them as i'm
moral and unsound if the profits were
not so captivating. Said one of them TO
a new firm of brokers whose account he
was taking: Whatever you do, don't lay
down on your bank. in other words
When the day of disaster overtakes
you, protect your financial partner from
loss by laying down on somebody else. I"
Of greater significance is the fact that
conservative" bankers and brokers,
who are eager to help others into the
mazes of Wall street, prefer to have their
customers think it is rule of the firm
never to gamble on its own account.
1t is question to what extent these
abuses of legitimate trade can be COR
rected by legislative remedies.

THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

Opening exercises over, DR.. S. s.
Boyd presented paper which was en-
titled What to Teach" He spoke at
length upon the literature to be sub
jected to small children and recon-
mended Mother Goose" and Mother
Hubbard of so much fame, and
demonstrated the manner in which
questions might be elected from the
child and answered by the teacher to
the information of the child. The pres
ent system of spelling was severely ridi-
culed, and many absurdities exposed
Fifty years of Europe is worth cycle
of Cathay," and the present century has
done more for the advancement of civ
ilization than any century heretofore.
After the recess DIR. Thurston con-
tinued his lecture of the forenoon. He
entered upon that division of his sub
ject demonstrated the Remedy. This
division he subdivided into the preven-
tive and curative. Under the first sub
division he referred to the appropria-
ton made by the general government of
one hundred thousand dollars designed
for the prevention of the spread of con-
t.gious diseases. How much more
good might be affected by making a
similar appropriation by way of increase
of the salaries of teachers competent to
train and develope the bodies and
minds of their youthful charges. Time
and money spent in lawing intemper-
ance out of existence are time and mon
ey more or less misspent since the only
really effective course to pursue
is to educate the people up to
the point of total abstinence.
Let us therefore abandon this lawing
against the giant evil intemperance,
and turn to that better mode of eradi-
cation-namely, education.
After recess Mr.. Macpherson spoke
to the teachers upon the course OF
study to be pursued In our district
schools. This ended the days work.
THURSDAY EVENING
the grounds surrounding the Normal
school building were beautifully illu-
minated by colored lanterns, and seats
were placed invitingly under the trees.
The well known Connors orchestra,
from its place of sitting in the center
of the grounds, discoursed bewitchine
strains to the delight of many listeners.
The assembled company, consisting
mainly of teachers, either sat in groups
under the trees or roved about. A
committee of introduction had been
appointed, involving much of the social
talent of the institute. This committee
deserves praiseful mention for its tire
less efforts to the end of bringing into
aequaintanceship the great number of
strangers present.

Quoted by Osborne Dennis. of the
ministry of the society Of Friends.
A communication from the Indiana
Women's Temperance Association was

out debate to the chairman of the COM
mittee on resolutions.
Mr. Macpherson rose and opened for
discussion the subject of the revised
course of study The printed form of
the course was placed upon the desk
and carefully analyzed with regard to
its merits and dement's. Criticisms and
commendations upon the same were
made by such well known teachers as

LYNN, IND, Aug. 20.

To the editor Of the Palladium:
T. Trask Woodard addressed large
audience at the NJ E. church last
night on the subject of whether it
would be justifable to the temperance
cause to vote for third party candi
date. Mr. Woodard took strong grounds
against the course pursued by the
Monitor j ournal and its following and
against any temperance man voting for
a third party candidate. He favored
the constitutional convention plank in
the Republican platform and claims
that all the prohibitionists can expect
will be realized by the election of the
Republican State ticket. Taken alto
gether it was firm answer to the gross
Misrepresentation made here by Mr.
Pinkham last week

not issue declaration of war, but will
inform France and the neutral powers
that she will regard repetition of the
Ku Lung incident or an attack on

claration of war. China will ask the
other powers, and especially England,
to be strictly neutral. The English
colony at Hong Kong has been the
base of operations against Tonquin.
China expects that in case the French
attack is renewed, the English colonists
will be warned of their duties as neu-
trails. 1t is quite certain the Chinese
will Immediately cross the southern

Voices From the Depths.

A story is told of the Pennsylvania
oil region TO the effect that some who
were employed to remove the tubing
and casing from an abandoned oil well
solemnly declared that they heard
spirit-like voice which cursed the men
who were robbing the bowels of the
earth of healing materials. These same
spirit voices told of deaths, past and
present events, thus startling the work
men until two Of their number trembled
with fear, The spirits swore wrathful
vengeance upon the group if they men,
toned having had communication with
spirits OF the mysterious depths of
mother-earth. One of the number,
however, broke the secrecy, and to this
day does not know that the we'll was
drilled through chamber in coal
bank, and that two witty miners, learn
ing when the well was to be abandoned,
stationed themselves at the hole and
conversed in hollow tones with the
workmen 100 feet above them, The
old well can still De seen in the coal
bank.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
