the accomplished daughter of Postmas,
ter Stearns, of Adrian, Mich. 1t came
to the plate at class social of the Adrian
High School in response to the toast,
'Ihc High School Nine" and it made a
hit for all the bases and the entire gate
receipts. 1t is as follows:
among all the sports of our country
there arc none in which is conferred more
interest than our national game of base
ball; no well-reg1llated college or high
school is complete without base ball
club; and among Ill the organizations it
is difficult to find one which has n nine
greatly superior to ours. Indeed, the
only reason why the Adrian High School
base Ball Club IS not a member of the
National League Is because so much of
then Tune Is occupied III games with
DootDlackS. On account of their far
famed battery, the government is seri-
ously considering the advisability of
adding them to the military force of the
United States. The nine arc better
posted than any similar organization in
the country, and they know SO much
about the game that they have, very fre-
quentIy, to correct the umpire, although,
OF course, they always DO so in courtc-
Gus and gentlemanly manner. Our nine
young athletes have by hard work won
glory and renown for themselves and the
educational institution with which theyarc
connected, aand they merit the thanks of
not only the High School, but the pub
nc at large who support the schools, and
VINO can look with pardonable pride
upon our High School nine. May your
'pltchcrs' never become full of beer, nor
your catcher ever wear mufr. In
ali your pursuits of life may you never
get first on crrors, be compelled to slide
Tor second, or try to steal third. At
thanksgiving it is safe to mako fowl

know it. In wrong doing it is best to

The Value Of Knowing How.
(From the Denver Tribune J

While Judge Tracy was on the circuit,
going from court, his trace broke. The
Judge spent over half hour trying to
Fix 1t, but to no purpose. His patience
was exhausted, and he expressed his
vcXation in words. A negro came along,
and the Judge told him of his difficulty.
The negro let out the trace, cut hole in
it, and the job was done.
"Why," said the Judge, "couId .lot
have thought Of that"
"WclI, maratcr," said the old negro,
"dont you know that some folks is lest
smarter than some other folks?"
"Ihat's So" said the Judge. "What
shall pay You for fixing my trace"
"Wcll. mar8tcr, fifty cents will do, =
replied the negro.
"Fifty cents" said the Judge. "You
were not five minutes at it!'
81 do not charge you fifty cents fol
doing it, said the negro. 81 charge
you twenty-five cents for doing it, and
twenty-five cents for knowing how to dc
it."-Exchangc.

Learning to Spell.

Frederick a. Eernald has very inter
Gstlng paper on the ccccntricities of
En9llsh spelling, III a late issue of the
Popular Science Monthly, from which
we take the following paragraph, which
gives far illustration of the Unnccessa-
ry burden which the acquisition of the
art OF eng glish spelling imposes on the
youthful mind:
Lcarnng to read the English Ian
8uagc IS one Of the worst mind stuntino
processes that has formed part of the
general education of any people. It's
cyll influences arises from the partly
phonetic, partly lawless character Of
English spelling. Although each letter
represents some sound oftCner than onv
other there is hardly letter in the
alphabet that does not represent more
than one sound, and hardly a sound in
the language that is not represented in
several ways, while many words are
written with as many silent letters as
significant ones. There is nothing in
any word to Indicate in which of these
why's it's component sounds are repre-
sCntCd-nothing in the written group of
| letters to show which sounds they stand
for, and which of them, if any, are
silent, 50 that the learner can never be
sure of pronouncing rightly an English
word that he has never seen written.
The spelling of each word must be
learned by sheer foFcc Of memory. In
this work the pupils reasoning powers
cannot be utilized, but must be subducd
while his memory is sadly oycrworked.
In the affairs of the child'S daily life,
the logical following out of rules is re-
warded; in learning to spell, it brings

tenn in that each car is furnished with its
own motor, so that the length of tho
train may be varied to suit circumstances
without affecting the propulsive power
But it is entirely distinct from any Other
system, and is covered by my patents
Though the system, as whole, is theo-
rotically perfect, there are some details
which may require modification; and
the purpose Of the experiments now in
progress is to ascertain what modifca-
tlons OF improvements are necessary to
insure complete success. Only by actual
work with ordinary cars and under ordi-
nary conditions can all defects be discoy

these trial trips; and when confident that
everything IS Ill thorough working order
we shall be ready to make public
demonstration.

officers of the Daft Electric Company to

Electric road, about two miles in LENGTH,

States, with several very steep grades,

FrTz JOHN PoRTER's BALLOON.
A Dangerous Ride Over the Confederate Cam
In War Times. - - -
(From the Atlanta Constitution. J

(From the Atlanta Consttution)
| 81 suppose you never heard of Fitz
John Porter's balloon ride" said an old
army officer. "Woll, it was one of the
most romantic events in the life of that
gallant soldier. He was with Mcclellan
in the Peninsular campaign and was dis
tinguished for his intelligent activity.
Porter conceived the idea that balloons
could be made very useful in reconnoit-
erlng and at his request General Nc
Clellan obtained the necessary equip
ment for this service. The balloons and
the apparatus for the manufacture of tho
gas were procured without much difficult
ty, but an pronaut was not so easy to
obtain. Some of the officers Of the en-
8inccr corps agreed to make the first
Trip IN the balloon which was to afford
view OF the Confederate operations.
forter watched their preparations with
Keen interest just as they had every
tnlng ready he stepped into the basket
OF the clumsy gas bag to see that every
thlng had been properly prepared.
While he was examining the machine it
sIPpcd from the grip Of the men who
held 1T and shot like an arrow up into
the air, carrying Porter as its lone pas
senger. He had never been in o. balloon
pe1ore ana knew nothing whatever about
managing one.
GA stiff breeze was flowing and the
great bulb flew like bird away from the
astonished camp, until it became mere
speck in the sky and then faded COM
pletely from sight. Not man who
watched it disappear expected that he
would ever see Porter alive again. He
started on his wild fight at 7 o'clock in
the morning. The day wore away with
the camp in state of great commotion
over the probable death of its favorite
officer. When night came and moth
ing had been seen of the balloon it
was the general conviction that Porter
had either been killed by fall from his
balloon or had been captured by tho
Confcderates. About daybreak next
morning picket challenged man
coming toward the Federal line and @
moment later recognized General Porter.
His balloon had carried him clean over
the Confederate army. He was fired at
II dozen times by the Confederate artille-
ry. At night the wind changed and
brought him back, and when he saw that
he was over to his own army he let out the
gas gradually and safely descended, after
being twenty hours in the air with the
vision of horrible death constantly be-
fore him. After this strange adventure
no more experiments with balloons we're
made IN hlcClcllan's army.

WHO BURNT COLUAiBIA9
\ Statement Which Fixes Anew the RESPONSE
biIity on Tccumsch sherman.

EDITOR COLUMBIA REGISTER: As the
Northern papers have again revived the
question as to who bunt Columbia, it
may not be out of place to state a few
facts which came to my own knowledge,
and which have never been published,
although it is pretty well known and
even conceded by the North that Shcr-
man was the destroyer. My father, who
remained in Columbia during its Occu-
pancy by Sherman, and whilst standing
on the front porch on the evening Of the
18th, with Ma jor Whitcncr, Of Mount
Pleasant, Iowa, whose headquarters were
at our residence, observed some signals
over the river AMI asked what was the
meaning of those signals The Major
said:
"Mr Niernscc, your city is doomed.
That is the signal for the 18th corps to
enter the city and commence the work of
destruction, and / would advise you i'm
mcdiatcly to take your family to IL place
of safety, for it is not safe for them to
remain i'll the city,
Besides this, myself, my brother
George and Flynn Davis were the last of
HamptOn's cavalry who left the city.
When we left VIC saw Mayor Goodwin
and the late John Agncw in Il harouchc
riding out Main street to meet Shsrman's S
advance guard, and when we turned into
Elmwood avenue, hy Judge pcarson's
house, Sherman, advance was entering
the city. L distinctly remember that at
that time there was 10 sign of fire
III the streets or elsewhere, and we had
passed through the principal streets, in
which bales of cotton were piled, and
noticed that very few bales were broken
or scattered.
L was taken prisoner III IL fight be
tween Liberty Hill and Lancaster Court
House, South Carolina, and confined in
Lancaster Ja1l with some Srvcnty-iivC or
one hundred other COnfrdCratCS. Whilst
IN jail, we were compelled to draw lots as to
the number of some ten or twelve who
were to be shot in retaliation for some
OF Shcrmms men who were said to have
been murdered by lnmpton's men. We
oil drew, and those who got the i'll Vatcl
numbers were detailed out, but the
shooting was never carried out. After
wards learned that General Hampton's
letter was the cause of the order being
rcSclndcd. ! was rccapturcd by General
Hampton III fight at Rock Fish Creek,
near Fayetteville, n. G.. We were all
confined IN pen built Of rails, conain-
ing about 100 COntcdclHtcS. The guard
on seeing Hampton charge in our dircc-
ton, and seeing that We were about to
be released, dclibcrntcly, at point-hlank
range, cmpticd their rifles into us and
then took to their heels. During NV
captivity / repeatedly heard the men
say that they had license 10 dO ns they
| pleased whilst in South Carolina, and
time and again | saw them fire twcH-
lngs, barns, etc, and, III fact, anything
that would burn WAS set on lire. Bit
their ficrccncss seemed TO subsidc as
soon as North Carolina WAS entered, al
though they did great deal Of dcstruc-
ton in that State.
