AN ORIENTAL SMUGGLER,
The Sailors were Indignant and Thereby
Got 30 Pounds of Opium Ashore.

"Of all smugglers," remarked the
Custom House inspector, recommend
me to the Chinks and Japs. THEY'VE
got more brains and originality than any
other smugglers four times over. A few
months ago tea packet came in and l
was assigned to it. Well, a friend of
mine-a 'fiend,' as they call 'em-gave
me a tip that there was opium paste on
board, which the sailors were going to
smuggle ashore, You see, opium paste
pays duty of $40 pound. l was on
the boat the moment she touched the
pier and examined every sailor that went
Off. l hadn't been aboard a very long
time, when Chinese grocery peddler
came down to the wharf. He had big
open basket on his arm, in which there
was green stuff and cans of tomatoes and
such like, 1 didn't suspect him, but to
to be doubly sure l walked with him to
the forecastle where he commenced to ped
ole off his truck. He sold the vegetables
and counted the money carefully he got
for them. Then he sold the cans of to-
matoes for quarter apiece. 1 thought
be was rubbing it in so told one of
EN- on the quiet they weren't worth more
than dime. They jumped up, fired the
cans into his basket, shook their fists
under his nose, and wanted their money
back He-wouldn't give it, and they
went for him. He was making good
light when one of them drew knife
[ had a. heavy cane in my hand, and
knocked the knife out of the fellows
hand and made the peddler go up the
ladder and off the boat. He thanked
me and went away talking Chinese, and,
as supposed, cursing the crowd.
"a little while after, the sailors came
up and wanted to go ashore. / searched
every one of them, and found nothing.
They hadn't been gone more than half
hour when the peddler came back. His
were bloody and swollen. He said:
Policeman, lobbie stealee fob, five can
tomatee. You helpe getie back and
takee bad man to station-houser felt
sorry for the poor fellow, and told him
we'd go and search the forecastle for his
property. We looked around five or ten
minutes, and were about to give it up as
bad job, when he found them hidden
away behind some old sail cloth. He
popped them into his basket, shook
hands and thanked me a dozen times,
gave me handful of good cigars, and
then went away. Do you know on ac-
count of the licking he had got never
dropped to his racket at all2 1t was all
a put-up job. He brought on board
real cans of tomatoes; he took away to-
mato cans filed with opium paste. The
sailors were in with him, and had put
the real ones in their chests, and had re-
placed them with the struggled stuff.
which meant a clear profit of $3.50"

We often see children with red eruptions on
face and hands, rough, scaly skin, and often
sores on the head. These things indicate a

blood by which to build up strong and healthy
bodies. If DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery" is given, the blood is purged of its
bad elements, and the child's development will
be healthy, and as it should be. Scrofulous

TEACHERS ASSOCIATION.

The FIRST regular meeting Of Hand
County Teachers Association was held at
Miller, d. II. Saturday, January "a, 1885.
1t was the intention to have morning
session. bnt owing to the inclemency Of
tho weather and the consequent tardiness
of the teachers in arriving. il was found
impossible to have II meeting ut that time,
so that the Association did not convene
until clock
Prof Pinkham, president of the Associ-
alton opened the meeting with short ad-
dress of welcome. Prot, G. W. Obey Of
Rec Heights, then read a paper on the
Personal Influence and Bearing of the
Teacher. The lecture was thorough,
practical and full of many good id,ss.
The speaker cited particular cases where
teachers had used their influence and had
accomplished good re esults. and then closed
by saying the teacher should be kind.
polite, firm and courteous, and that he
sheuld take personal interest in the well
fare of eneh pnpil
A. Briggs, of Miller, spoke briefly on
the same subject. How can the bearing
of the teacher have the best results?
Study tae character of your pupils. ead
show to them that you are friend to each
OF them. The training of the teacher
outside of toe school room must be the
same us that inside.
Miss Emma Stannard Of Miller read
verv fine ESSAY ON schools and school work
The writer showed the Importance and
proper training of the youth depends the
future downfall or prosperity of onr gov
ernment An appeal was made to the
teachers to honor their profession, inn
prove themselves, read, think. enter heart
and soul into the work, and look for their
reward not at the end of the term, but iuto
tie future years when the wayward boys
and girls have be ne men and women.
The best methods of teaching was then
treated of in brief manner, proper train
ing in the primary department being
emphasized. The particular method OF
teaching reading in the Miller schools was
given by request of the County Superin-
tendent Teachers do u great work if they
teach children to read and appreciate good
books.
A paper on the subject of Order in the
School was read by Geo w. Nellis, of st.
Lawrence. The speaker started out with
question, what is good orderin the school?
and answered the same as follow: "Gosd
order is such decorum in the school room;
lst. That pupils can study without inter-
ruption from each other; I'd. That the
teacher can give his attention to the reei-
tations; 3D. That it will be II discipline to
the pupils preparing them for obedience
to law and good citizenship in after life.
How shall we maintain this order? lst.
The teacher must be orderly himself; 2d.
He must be careful as to the rules he
makes, bul after having made a rule, he
should enforce it rigidly: 3D.. He must be
kind, Just and firm in all his dealings with
the children; 9TH. Give the pupils enough
work to keep them busy.

THE INTER OCEAN

In 1856 the Inter Ocean enters upon the
fourteenth year of its existence. Given
unusual confidence 10y the people in its
early days it has steadily grown in favor
until this day, when the publishers take
pride in the fact that the paper goes in
more homes and has a greater number of
readers than any publication west Of the
Alleghenies.
From the beginning the Inter Ocean has
stood firmly by the principles of TIE Re-
publican party, and has, in season and out
of season, contended for protection to
American industry" 1t does not agree
with the idea that the mission of the Re-
publican party is finished; on the contrary
it believes that purified by adversely, 1t
Will in the near future again rise to the
higher planes Of thought and action and be
completely restored to the confidence of
the American people. The most impor-
tant agencies in accomplishing this result
viii be Republican journals. If reliable,
stancn Republican newspaper was import
ant when the Republican party was in
power, it is doubly SO now that the Dem
o ,racy controls the National Government.
The Inter Ocean will in the future as in
the past be the medium through which
the best Republican thought will be given
to the people. 1t will voice the convic-
tons of advanced Republicans without
being unfair even to Bourbon Democrats
1t will be aqgressiyely Republican without
being bitterly partisan. and will give as
much attention to the affairs of CleveIand's
administration as 1t wonld have given to
the administrations IF Mr. Blaine had he
been elected. With an Associated Press
franchise, with special wires reaching to
New York and Washington, with special
correspondents in all important points of
of the country, the Inter Ocean win use
its facilities for collecting news without
fear or favor, and SO far as governmental
atfuirs or party movements are concerned
will give a fuller record than any other
paper.
All of tue old departments will be con.
tinued. The scope Of the WoIAN'S

ments in which women are interested and
engaged. OUR CURIOSITY SHOP, now

j. L. Dovell spoke ON the moods Of
the Teacher He commenced with the
thought that humanity was changeable and
subject to q great variety of moods. Among
the moods which he termed detrimental,
were the imaginary, threatening. weakly
and selfish moods. These should be over
come If the teacher would be successful
Among the moods which were termed BEN
efcial, the speaker named the thoughtful
feeling, appreciative, confidential. modest
and reserved moods. These should be
cultivated.
The last paper read was that by Prof.
A. g. Somers on the Relations of Parents
and Teacher" Teacher stands in the
place Of the parents during the school
hours. The term education is broad and
comprehensive; II includes all the forces
and circumstances of life that have
forming influence on character. In its
more limited De, education means to
lead out the ers of the mind and dis
cipll Q the fleet. Considerations OF
affection and family pride unite to in
terest the parent in the welfare of the
children. OF necessity the parent must
look after the physical wants Of ;le child.
The training of the intellect deyolves up
on the professional e,lucptor. Under the
head OF discipline comes the habits of
order, self control, obedience, and civility,
the love OF truth and reverence for what is
good and great. The work of the profess
sional educator in our common schools
must be q direct effort to instruct the
youth in fundamental branches OF educa-
tion. and incidentally to aid in forming
habits, OF order. self-control and good
behavior.
The Association then proceeded to the
election of officers. Prof. A. G. SomerS
was elected President and the remaining
officers were reelected. Miller was chosen
as the next place of meeting.
The lecture in the evening by Prof.
Pinkham ON Dakutas Educational Future
was very ilne, but was too well attended
to need any mention here.
Taken all together the meeting was n
success. and the attednance much larger
than anticipated. X
