EVENING SESSION.

The evening session was devoted TO hear
ing addresses on the subject OF temperance
from Miss barrow and Mrs. Howsy OF
Helena. It was held in the Presbyterian
Church on the corner OF Broadway and
Idaho, which was comfortably filled,
chiefly by ladies. The addresses were
very earnest and pointed ont that the
only hope OF the success OF the temper
ance reform movement lay in the
education OF the youth OF the land by
scientific exposition OF the evils OF the
liquor traffic, and to this end the speakers
appealed to teachers to take up the cause
as one OF the most important elements in
the education OF the young.
The Arion Quartette was present and
rendered very beautiful selections in the
interludes between the addresses.
Tonight an interesting address will be
delivered by Judge Knowles In the same
place commencing ats o'clock, to which
the public are cordially invited.

SESSION.

AtUer coming TO OFOef Un6 m6mD6rS lSG-
ened to the reading Of the minutes by Sec
rotary White. A few corrections in regard
to names was made, and the minutes were
approved and corrected.
The first pape Of the afternoon was
read by e. A. Steere. principal OF Butte
High School. The topic was .Drawing."
and was treated from the educational
standpoint, from the practical, and in re-
gard to methods. The essayist commended
that the advantages OF drawing are great,
rand tend to carry the mind to a higher
plane. He asserted that it's benefits are
physical in training the muscles
OF the hand; intellectually in
melting to correct observation;
@sthetically in the appreciation and pro-
in the bread-winniDg capacity. acclaimed
&. at issues OF the most serious import,
social, political and Industrial, are depend
emit upon the proper treatment of this
subject in public schools.
Before taking up the discussion the audi
ence was favored by a solo by Mr.. Jones.
He was heartily encored. In the discus
| sion Mr.. Burchard asked, should drawing
be made a study? II SO, what textbooks
should be used, and should the instruction
be confined to books? In answering these
uuebuiouS 81 SpiElU6u ui6CuSSlOu cubu6u, III
which Mrs. Morsehead, Miss Layton, Messrs.
Fitzpatrick, Carleton, Steere, banks and
others took part.
The next paper upon the programme
was upon "Teaching a Means of Self Cul-
ture" by Miss Houston of Bozeman. In
her absence it was suggested that Mr.. Lo-
gan give his exercise on reading which had
been postponed on account of his absence.
He made the points thatgood reading, pro-
nunciation and articulation should re-
ceive attention from the primaries up to
the higher grades. 1t is not necessary for
a teacher to be a good reader in order to |
teach reading. No child should be called
upon to read until he understands what
he is reading. Reading consists in finding
the proper relation existing between sense
and sound.
This subject was discussed 1t some
length in regard to methods, by some of
the teachers interested. A change was made |
in theprogramme to accommodate some
teachers who could not be present upon
Friday, who were anxious to hear the sub
iect OF history presented by Mr.. banks Of
Fort Benton. Accordingly that gentleman
took the time assigned to Mr.. Meyers OF
Deer Lodge. Mi. banks opened his SUBJ
iect by stating that although history vas
not his hobby, he hoped to provoke dis
cussion by what he had to say, History in
his opinion. should be treated as more
than a bare record of events. It was a

\ Big Cattle Train Wrecked.

Eldorsdo. Kas., Nov. 15.-A
heavily loaded cattle train Of twenty
five cars, on the Missouri Pacific
railroad, went through the Walnut
river bridge near this city last night
The engine and ten cars We're com
pletely wrecked; 100 cattle were
killed and many crippled.
Fireman Kellog was thrown about
fifty feet, but, although badly bruis-
e., he crawled back into the wreck
and held up engineer Spencer's
head and kept him from drowning
for ffty-fve minutes until they
were rescued.
Spencer was caught between the
engine and tender and terribly niur-
ed. It is thought he cannot recover.
The loss to the company will reach
$4,000.

IMMIGRATION.

The season is too far advanced to
expect much Of al immigration to
this county this year, but theamount
Of money expetded in advertising
Bates county's resources ought to
bring some returns in the spring and
this we confidently look forward to.
J. K. Brugler, president of the
Bates county immigration society
sent out over 100000 descriptive cir
culars, giving facts and figures about
the county's resources, prices Of
land, quality of soil, etc, which cost
him large sum of money, besides
our assessment to the Southwest
immigration society. We had ex-
pected that excursions for land buy
ers would have been secured by this
society over the roads leading into
this section and we learn from pri-
vats letter from secretary Gwynn
that such an effort was made, but
probably too late in the season to
be favorably considered by the rail-
roads. The hand books issued by
this society and distributed broad
cast throughout the east, ought to
be productive of much good. We
look for big immigration to this
section in the spring and summer of
1889 and feel confident from the
man we have at the helm in immi-
grafton matter in this city that Bates
county's interest will be amply look
ed after.
