The school at slabtown, taught by Mr..
j. P. Smith, is large and interesting.
Mr.. Smith is ably assisted in his work by
Miss Mary Bosgs. Mr.. Smith has a
blackboard. or rather an iron gray board,
sreaching across one end Of the house. 1t
is used frequently and used we'll. We do
most heartily approve Mr.. Smiths plan
Sof conducting spelling exercises. He
uses The spelling blanks to vory great
advantage, and his experience is that
this plan Is worth far more to his pupils
aud to him than the old way of having
the spelling done orally. All the lead
ing schools Of the county, as veil as of
the State, have the spelling done on
books, states, or blackboards. A child
{ that spells orally very well win find it
somewhat difficult to write the same
words correctly when be comes to use
them. The best spoilers are those who
learn the. art in the use of the pencil.
Mr. Smith and Miss Boggs both attend
the Institutes and give their pupils the
bene6tof what they learn.

These should be mixed on wooden
floor in an old clubhouse, putting down
first layer of acid phosphate, sprinkling
on this next layer of kainit, taking care
to break all the Jumps previous to spread
ing, and finally layer of cotton seed
meal. Repeat this until all the materials
are exhausted.
Now mix as thoroughly as possible
with spade or shovel, for on this mixing
will in great measure depend the quail
ity of the fertilizer. 1t will not be q
difficult matter, as the cotton seed meal
and acid phosphate are always we'll
powdered when bought, and the lumpy
portions of the kainit will only need to
be mashed fine before it is applied to the
heap. With little care and some
patience this mixing may be done in a
thorough manner, and it is ready for use
as soon as mixed.

WHY NOT TRY SWANSEA?

Shortly after the publication in the
TINES Of the article giving the de-
tails OF tho new process for reducing
zi"c;fsrous ores, Fred. G. Bradley, OF
this city. wrote to the Omaha s Grant
works, in Denver, to inquire il that
company would buy such ores, and
how much, if anything, it would pay
for them: Mr.. Bradley has just re-
eeived the following reply:
DENVER, August Is.
DEAR Sir: Your favor OF the
goth received.
As to tho zinc process, it is not yet
in operation. All We propose TO DO

Of eight.ton capacity - All expert

will be, or that it will be success on
large scale.

zinc. Yours truly,
OMAHA 4 GRANT S. & II. Co.
This letter to the contrary notwith.
standing, We are Of the opinion that,
If tho new process is = success and
the Grant or any other works can be
prevented from acquiring the sole
right to use it, zinciferou. ores will
prove valuable in proportion TO the per.
crntage Of zinc which they carry. 1.-THE

carload lots, it will he too valuable
to give to the smclters, especially
when, - il the case with so many
mines, tho ore carries from 20 to ~
per cent OF zinc.
Now that Mr.. Bradley has taken
hold Of this subject, no might 20 .
step luther, and write to Swansea,
Wales, to ascertain what could be
done there with ores of that character.
At those works every particle Of
metal in tho ORE reduced is saved, and
the prices paid for ores are graded &C.
cordingly. II Swansea could be in
d"ced to buy our ores the result
would rebound to our benefit, as the
Denver aud other works would there.
BY DO compelled to give better prices.
The Swansea works have been re.
ducing American ores for over y
third Of century. Even the grand
old Comssoek lode, which has yielded
over FIVE hundred millions of dollars,
was not believed to "amount to
much" until q considerable quantity
Of its ores had been hauled over the
Sierra Nevada mountains to tide.
water. aud shipped to Swansea by
clipper.ship. The cost of doing so at
that time was enormous. But at
present it would not exceed SIS per
ton from tide water.
Why not try Swansea?

Presence Of Mind OF a Gallant Young


A pretty light-haired, blue-eyed girl, fash

north side Of Chestnut street, above Eighth.
the other afternoon, when she came TO a sud-
den halt and was about to pitch forward on
her face just as lady caught her.
The French heel Of the pretty girls boot
had caught in a little round hole which. like
hundreds of other little round holes In the
sidewalk, had been filed with glass to give
light to the basement Of the store in front Of
which she had been walking. The glass had
come out of one Of the little circles, and the
boot heel fitted the heel so tightly that 1t
went in, but It would not come out. The
young girl would have broken her ankle.
probably, had it not been for the presence OF
mind Of the woman passer-by, who caught
her. The young woman struggled herOically
to free her heel, and her pretty face took ON
deeper crimson blush as men, women and
children gathered around.
In few minutes she was the centre Of COO
