TEACHERS IN TOWN.

Anaconda is glad tn welcome the
eachers representing Deer Lodge
county. who met yesterday morning
and who will devote three days tn the
discussion of topics concerning the best
methods of school management.
A teachers institute is of immense
value to those who regard the meeting
an an opportunity to get Information
| regarding the best methods. These are
the teachers who are jealous in their
| work. who are striving to ''knOw h
better way" aud who are earnest work
ers in % sphere which In more inviting
IN it's opportunities and grander i'm it's
results than any field of professional
work open tn man ar IL il an
occasion for listless recreation and re-
lief from routine rare To those who
teach for "a living" who value the reci-
tation room for the pay there is i'm it,
and tn whom the school room is "a bore.
IL one may base n N opinion On yester-
days work. most Of n instructors met
in this city are earnest teachers whose
purpose is tn make the institute now
progressing Of greatest possible count
To themselves and the schools they rep
resent.
Several themes were discussed at yes
terday's sessions regarding which the
STANDARD would be glad to get fuller
expressions from the teachers. III the
institute were to devote it's entire time
to the study of the word method" to
elementary geography and to the best
systems of primary work, the three
days of the session would be immense
ly profitable. even il every other theme
were excluded. The chief objection to
the average institute. when limited to
three days, is the wide range it is apt to
take.
Montana ought to build up. within
the coming years, a system of schools
in which every educator may take
pride. Under the law that gave MS
statehood. ample provision will he
made for the public school system.
Meanwhile. the local government is lib
eral, and We assert that the average pay

The Jersey Jumping Place.

A section gang was working on "a marsh
west of Jersey City the other day when a
New York Sun man who had been snipinG,

These spots looked as il IL heavy beam
had struck the earth, and here and there
was "a ragged furrow in the dirt.
"And you don't know what them spots

The JourHaTs latest venture in this
line concerns state Auditor Eenney,
regarding whom it said in it's edition of
sunday that il lis in possession of evil

question that state Auditor kenney
WAS yesterday approached with an
overture that meant SECOND in hand"
provided he would call the roll of the
democratic legislature and follow the
list plt i'm his and 10y those who pro-
posed tn bride him. The Journai then
goes OH to give the auditor "a good
character.
Mr.. Kenney himself. who called the
republican gathering to order and who
is IA republican, gives full denial to the
story circulated by the Journal. and
his denial was given to the democratic
press in Helena. According to his own
statement, Mr.. Kenney is far removed
from need of the defense which the
Journal ofiiciously furnishes. If Mr..
kenney tells the truth. as he undoubt-
eddy does. he ought To call the turn Oh
scandals which the republican press is
trying tn wind about his name. Other
wise, it will be with him as was the
case with James Shields. The JOurn0i
linked that gentleman's name with cor
rupt politics, and, hen he broadly de-
MED all that was insinuated, the Jour
nal dropped the theme and has never
taken occasion tn produce the proofs
or To ecall what it said concerning
him.
In circulating scurrilous tales regard
ing democrats and republicans, the
Helena journal is guided by some mo-
tive which is not clear to the rest Of us.

The tragedy which occurred i'm a lit

THE GREAT JAPANESE FRUIT.
Why Persimmons Are Bound TO Be-
come More and More Popular.
From the I1tdependenk

why FerslmmonS are BounQ 60 Be-
come More and More Popular.
From the btdeDendent
The persimmon has long grown in the
warmer portions of the southern states,
and its tree tops have sometimes
reached the hight Of sixty feet. The tree
grows to less hight the farther north it is
situated, and may not grow on an average
higher than 20 or 25 feet at its norther n
limit
Wise men call this native rersimmon
DiOSpyros Virginidnd. The flowers are
usually of & pale orange color and not very
conspicuous The fruit is often of a dark
yellow when ripe, and many seeds are i'm.
bedded in the soft pulp.
Formerly, 50 we are told by Michaux, the
botaDist, the fruit was made into cakes
with bran and used in preparing beer,
with the addition Of hops, water and
yeast. When the fruit is very ripe it is
sweet and agreeable. but it is
very disagreeable when half ripe. After
hard frost has bitten the fruit and has
thrown it into a state of almost decay
then it is sweet and it is eaten with pleas
ure by those accustomed from childhood TO
the persimmon fruit.
The persimmon belongs to the noted and
useful family of ebony trees of the Old
World. The cabinet maker has often Dor
rowed wood from this family, and the
shoemaker has caused his shoe LASTS to
be turned" from this hard, heavy wood.
Some kinds of ebony are so heavy as TO
sink in water When burned it emits an
aroma ic odor, and the wood may take a
fine polish when it is desired.
Frost, if of any severity, is apt to kill the
trees; but it is autnoritatlvely asserted that
in eli ate where the thermo meter does
not indicate a lower te nperature than
| twelve degrees above zero the plant or tree
may thrive.
The tree makes a handsome appearance
with its large glossy leaves; and the fruit
is beautiful, varying in color from orange
or yellow, streaked with red ard partially
covered with small dots, to scarlet and to-
mato color. The fruit is from one to three
inches in diameter, and in shape it some
times resembles an orange, but it is usually
rouudish-conical, or perhaps at times having
four we'll marked sides.
Persimmon trees are quite noticeable after
the leaves have fallen and the reddish or
yellow fruit hangs on nearly bare branches.
When fully ripe the persimmon may be-
conveniently eaten, on account of its soft
ness, with teaspoon.
Where the taste has been educated suffi-
GENTLY to appreciate and relish the persim-
mon, it is pronounced a fine fruit and a
good marmalade is made from it. When
the fruit is picked a short time before ripen-
ing it can be transported a long distance
without injury. But it thought it will be
found the best way TO market persimmons
in dried state, like figs or raisins.

FRONT ELEVATION.

Warmth, good ventilation and avoidance
of cold draught' are necessary for the health
and comfort of horses. Sheath the struct-
ure with both cards and paper. If there
he near by high buildings or any other OBJ
struction TO ven tilation, add a roof venti-
lator. The doors should face the south
preferably, or at least a direction from
which the coolest blasts of winter will not
rush in when they are opened. Windows
at the heads Of stalls should be hinged at the
bottom and swing Inward at the top to a
limited distance, to avoid exp 1sure Of the
animals to direct air draughts. If these
windows admit glare Of sunlight to the
