fastidious Caucasian present. The
yellow man was not at all abashed
during the mastication part of the pro-
gramme, and at times grew most affable
to his lady neighbour. Speaking then
commenced, but it was commercially
brief. Mr.. Bryant naturally spoke on
the work of the mission. and
urged that Cinnamon should be more
appreciated for their worth. Cinnamon
were an appreciative people. and when
they come to see the good that there
was in Christian civilization they are
very ready and willing to accept it.
Prof. Wells, DR.. Christie, j. W. Griggs,
Jr., G. II. Hazard, E. c. Hazard and
DIR. Il. +. MacLaren also spoke.
An adjournment was made to the par

After Hum Bangs story there was
more singing, and Wing Ting. of Min

JOHN NAGLE.


MICHAEL SCHIPPER of the town of
Manitowoc, committed suicide yesterday
morning by cutting his throat. He has
been insane, having been twice sent to
the Oshkosh Asylum. During the two
days preceding his death he was quite
nervous and told his wife that he could
not see he was of any use in this world
Wednesday morning he got up quite
early sharpened butcher knife and cut
his throat while out in the yard, severing
the jugular vein so that he quickly bled
to death.
He was a man OF about 40 years of age
and had quite a nice farm just outside
the city limits. A coroner's inquest was
held and a verdict given in accordance
with the facts here stated.
Schipper made various attempts on his
own life and was considered dangerous
When last sent to the Oshkosh Asylum
he was discharged after having been kept
but one month. A good deal of indigna-
ton is expressed at this proceeding.

WILL RAHR has practically withdrawn
from politics, but when he gets stirred
up some of the old fire and energy burst
forth and he usually gets the best of an
opponent. To his splendid executive
ability is largely due the heavy majority
which this county rolled up two years
ago. A little incident which occurred
lately shows how Will is valued politi-
cally: BY marriage he has number of
Scandinavian relations. An intelligent
republican of Norwegian nationality late
ly met Rahr and politics came up as a
subject of discussion. why" said the
man, "since you became Norwegian and
democrat all the Norwegians are be-
coming democrats"

Two others, Albert Pilon of Two Riv-
ers and Bella Carey of Meme, reached
the required average, but each failed to
reach the minimum in one branch. Two
others reached the required standing in
all, but their papers furnished indisput-
able evidence of copying and they were
refused diplomas.
There were 55 applicants, ID of whom
were successful. The applicants were
divided among the towns as follows
Cato, 8; Centerville, 3; Eaton, 2; Frank
lin, 2; Liberty, 9; Manitowoc, Z; Mani
towoc Rapids, 2; Maple Grove. 4; Meme,
IL; Mishicott, 2; Schleswig, 3; Two Riv-
ers, 2. Very nearly one-half of those who
failed came within few per cent. each
of the standing required.
The examinations have been so con-
Quoted as to test the pupils available,
practical knowledge of the subjects
Many of the failures are due to the fact
that the matter learned has never been
subjected to the test of use The child
who can readily answer questions often
finds it difficult to do the things of which
his answer is verbal description. A
number of teachers are present at the
examinations for the purpose of forming
an estimate of what pupils should know
and be able to do when the course is COM
pleted, and in many instances express
surprise that the capacity for doing, rath-
than the readiness to answer, is subjected
to test. But it must be remembered that
mental discipline is best secured by that
thorough mastery of what is studied
which makes possible the ready use of
the facts learned.
Special preparation for the examina-
ton should be discouraged. The diploma
is evidence of that mental power and of
such requirements as the child should
have In order to successfully meet the
demands Of ordinary life and intelligent
ly perform the duties of citizenship. 1t
is evidence that the work of the three
forms has been done properly and has
given the child the mental growth and
the command of faculties which makes
the knowledge gained an instrument of
ready use to the young person. These
things cannot be accomplished by hasty
reviews. They are the fruit of good
teaching and honest effort. The Course
of Study does not recognize the diploma
as the realization of its purpose. The
diploma is an attestation that the nine
years work of the district school has
been SO performed as to do the student
the greatest possible good.

WIN. NEUMAN of Two Rivers claims to
have been robbed one night last week on
re Two Rivers road while on his way
lone from Mapitowoc. He says when
one of the abandoned buildings near
E. Smiths, man asked him for ride.
He took the fellow into his buggy, and
when E. r. Smiths place was reached
two other persons appeared and seized
his horse. The man in the buggy choked
Neuman and the trio relieved him of ten
dollars.
There are very few in this city who be-
heve Neuman's story. His failure to re-
port at once is regarded as suspicious.
Still, the place where he says he was
robbed is a lonely spot. The occupants
OF the buildings at this side of E. r.
Smiths have been driven from their
homes by the encroachment of the lake
and the buildings now furnish shelter
for tramps. The f. R. Smith residence
is also abandoned and tramps hold orgies
in the outbuildings. There is but little
travel on the road and the benighted
traveller usually keeps his hand upon his
revolver while passing these deserted,
and hence uncanny spots.

THE decadence of the republican party
in this county is pretty well shown by
the absence from its councils of such a
man as Charles Esslinger. He was a re-
publican in the halcyon days OF the party
when brains and merit were pushed to
the front. When he took part in cam
paign it meant discussion of issues, not
empty pretensions. One cannot meet the
old man to-day with his strong Jackson
ian features and wealth Of Renaissance,
without feeling of sadness that sham
and strut should have supalanted the
intelligence of the past days. Ii is mere
ly a recollection in the republican party
when its leaders had knowledge of the
issues they discussed.
