Barnum in Favor of Cleveland.
 # fcrJ Tir,nc l

The New Haven Morning News had a to prepare an account of the democratic state committees proceedings on Tuesday. That account says ''the committee refused to endorse the administration" The fact is, the committee endorsed the admins tration emphatically and heartily. The account also says the Hon William H. Barnum is opposed to the re-nomination of President Cleveland, and is ''working heart and soul in the interest of Governor Hill of New York" There is not the slightest semblance of truth in this. MT Barnum is in favor of the re-nomination of President Cleveland.

A very interesting meeting Of the A
and B teachers OF the city schools was
held in Centre school building on last
Friday afternoon. There was a full at.
tendance and the very closest attention
was elected.
After some Introductory remarks by
Superintendent Anderson, the pupils Of
Miss Moran's school fled into the room
and in the presence OF all gave an ex-
hibit Of their rapidity and accuracy in
adding. Quite a number OF long col.
umns were added with bewildering
rapidity and not any mistake occurred.
Prof. Crago, Of Richie school, read n
very good paper on Recitation" After
IN attractive introduction he set forth
prominently the following object OF the
recitation: First, to enable the teacher
to estimate the daily progress OF the
pupil second, to enable pupils to tell
what they know; third, to enable the
pupils to gain or acquire well founded
self-confdence; fourth, to enable pupils
to fix in their minds what they learn /;
fifth, to enable the teacher to explain or
illustrate the lesson, and to add new
matter to it; sixth, TO enable the teacher
to keep before the pupils the true OBJ
jects Of study; seventh, to enable the
teacher to imprint moral instruction.
The Professor then showed how faulty
some old methods OF having Rotations
are, and made valuable suggestions rs to
more approved methods.
The teachers are all well pleased and
doubtless much benefited by these
meetings.

train was running at good speed, and
before it was stopped ran past the station
and on to n trestle. The man ran on
after the train, intending to board it, and
had gotten well on the trestling when
the train started to back. In order to
avoid being run over he was obliged to
drop himself over the edge Of the high
structure and hang there till the train
backed to the station, when his cries
attracted help and he was pulled up.
