Florida's Progress.

Florida is a popular subject with writers
and speakers. The articles that have been
written and the addresses that have been
delivered on Florida would fill good many
volumes, and yet people go right on writ
ing and speaking just as if the theme wore
new one, and the public reads and listens
with undated interest.
The truth is that Florida's growth is so
remarkable that there is always something
new to be said about It, while the oft-told
story does not lose its interest by repetition.
There were serious drawbacks to her prog
ress, but they have been overcome, to a
great extent, and the natural advantages
which she possesses have attracted
both immigrants and capital Her
wonderful climate, her fertile soil,
product ng nearly everything that can
I've produced in other southern states, and
some things that cannot, and her induce
ments to investors have been extensively
advertised, and with what result may be
seen by a comparison OF her condition of
today with that of ten years ago. The at
tention she has given to educational mat
ters has been great aid to her progress.
Other southern states might learn some val
liable lessons from the more recent history
of Florida's growth.
As great as has been that growt til, how
ever. it promises to be still greater. The prog
ress Florida has made has been in the face
Of obstacles, as has been stated, and these
having been removed for most part. she is
now prepared to make longer and more
amid sfridaa than avar hafora Tho rNroa-
pect is that the census of 1900 will contain
the record of great things accomplished in
Florida

IT IS not generally known, observes a Maine
paper, that Mount Desert, the famous summer
watering place, was once a small kingdom and
ruled by a queen long remembered and es-
teemed. AT the close of the last century Maria
Theresa La Motto De Cadallac Gergoire great
granddaughter of Gov CAdallac, Lord Of Mount
Desert and Danaque, ruled and was proprietress
of the island. She first settled at Halls Cove
about 1892, and sold her estates TO squatters

she was greatly mourned, it is said, for she had
the qualities OF a true sovereign. Her heirs sold
out to man named Bingham, and returned to
France.
The SPECIAL COMMITTEE Of the board of educa
ton of New York city has prepared report in
favor of abolishing the present marking system
in public schools. 1t is proposed to substitute
for this arbitrary system Of marks on recita-
ttOD9 examinations teachers
as 70 the record Of proficiency to which each
pupil is entitled. Such record Is to be made up
from week to week from the general knowledge
of the teacher, aided by such memoranda as 10
chooses to make for his own guidance. The
pupils work is to be reported as perfect"
Imperfect" or failure in the various
studies pursued aud account can be taken Il

When years work Is concluded the question
OF promotion becomes one OF actual fitness for
the higher grade Of studies ascertained by the
real progress OF the pupil, and not by capacity
for examining for an examination.

Mr.. Walston says Il am not &

IS he? If he is q farmer or farm

man and will ever he as long as

of making.

my former communication. To his
next question | will say farmers are
very insignificant. evea now, and
wHFbe more so, without some de
termlDed action among themselves
