The meeting of the County Teachers

attended, in spite of the storm that pre-
vailed.
After prayer by ]. D. Cummings, DR..
Talmage gave very interesting and IN
structive lecture on s'Method in Study
He said this century might be appropri-
ately styled the carboniferous age of learn
ing, and referred to the numerous discov-
cries, inventions and wonderfully rapid
development of all branches of learning.
Themethods of study, too, had been greatly
advanced. He said the teachers should be
broad and general in his education and not
specialist, generally speaking, though
specialists are often useful. knowledge
must be stored away in proper order like
the books of library, or it will be of little
use. The teacher should keep up with the
times in all the branches he teaches, sup
plementing the textbook and separating
truth from error for his pupils when neces-
sary.
He received hearty vote of thanks.
The next feature of the days programme
was "Fractions," by Professor Stewart

sion could be taught with objects.

PECCARY VS.. LOCOMOTIVE.
How a Pack of the Obstinate Little Brutes
Came to Grief

A Fort Davis (Tex.) correspondent of
the New York Times writes The follow
ing story, which has now become part
] will best serve to illustrate the headstrong
disposition and wonderful courage of the
/ little peccary. The Southern Pacific rail
road, which passes this point for part Of
its route, cuts through a long stretch of
chaparal country Astounding with peccaries,
wild mustangs, and various wild animals
One day, while driving along at moderate
speed through the peccos' bottoms, an engin-
eer saw herd of small animals scattered
along the track for hundred yards ahead.
Believing them to be domestic porkers, he
blew the whistle a couple of blasts and
kept straight ahead supposing, of course,
that the brutes would take the hint and
get out of the way. No such thing. With
shouts in the air they scornfully surveyed
the approaching engine and made up their
minds to stand their ground. Quickly form
1nga semi-circle en- masse, with angry eyes
and crashing teeth, they coolly awaited, the
crash, evidently determined to demolish the
LOGON olive and cars or get "busted" them
selves, so to speak. Still the engineer
thought they would move and made no at
tempt to ease up or stop the train. When
was inevitable, and so he opened the throt-
tie, set the old whistle to screeching, and
bore down upon the band with all the speed
he could command.
Crash he went through the band of pee
carries like rocket, filling the air with
spare ribs, tenderloins, and bits of flying
pork. Those belligerent little rascals who
were unhurt rushed madly at the wheels,
the cars, and the cowcatcher, showing
their spitefulntss to the bitter end. OF
course, they were smashed out of exist
ence in their attempt to do-nothing.
The engineer says: Next day when l
came back over the road there were the
remaining peccaries on the same spot, ar
ranged in battalion front, and all waiting
for the train to come along So that they
could get even for the previous days dis
aster. Away went at them again, filling
the atmosphere with pork, while the live
ones frantically rushed at the cars, wheels,
and trucks, attempting in their mad fury to
wreck the train. This was kept up trip
after trip until only three peccaries re-
manned. True to theirresolution, when the
final day came they took a bold stand side
by side in the middle of the track and pre-
pared to make last fight for the honor
Of peccaries and hogs generally. Two
were tossed into eternity by the cow
catcher and the third was cut into sections
by the iron wheels. Since then no more
peccaries have attempted to buck against

Price, % cents. Published by A. L. Burt, SO
Beekman street. New. York.
"Won on the Homestretch," is the title
of story of Sothern life, which, like all
such tales, possesses charm of its own en-
tirely outside of all its various other
merits of style, plot and incident. The
heroine is character which the writer in
vests with novel traits, in which piquancy
and independence predominant and in no
way depreciate her natural refinement.
To delineate the hero's characte ristics,
much negro dialect and considerable turf
vernacular have been introduced, but both
are exceedingly well done, and are anus
ing and interesting.

writers being unsurpassed. The fronts
piece to the current issue is a line portrait
of Lord Brougham, and the opening paper
by the editor Is a pleasing sketch of his
early career, during the infancy of our
republic, with vivid pen-pictures OF his
contemporaries and surroundings, the
establishment of the Edinburgh ReUietU, and
the marriage of its editor in New York city.

A sleepy kiss is the only fare;
Drifting away from the world we go,

See where the firelogs glow and spark,
Glitter the lights of Shadowtown;
The pelting rains on the window, bark,
Are ripples rapping upon its strand.
There where the mirror is glancing dim,
A lake with its slumbering cool and still,
Blossoms are waving above its brim,
Those over there on the window sill.
