At recent republican mass meeting in
Ala, the negro majority refused to recognize
the white presiding officer, called their
white allies ''poor white trash," told them
to get cut, declared that four-fifths of the
republican voters in the South were me-
groes, and then, with cries that ''the me-
groes are on top" took possession of the
meeting, elected a negro chairman and
secretary, and proceeded to the election of
negro delegates to the State convention.

THE Future Chattanooga of Virginia."

Mr.. Thomas P. Grasty, the widely
known correspondent OF the Manuf acturers'
Record, has visited Staunton again, and
this time with direct reference to furnish
ing the Record with the result of his obser-
vations in connection with future develop
ment here. The first of series of articles
on that line appeared in the last number
of that journal. He assigns to Staunton
the position of 'aThe Future Chattanooga
of Virginia"
The opening article sketches the stu
alton, the resources, and opportunities,
and the men who are pushing forward the
schemes of development in manner which
will interest resident readers in the highest
degree and induce strangers and capitalists
to examine for themselves. In majority
of cases all such will take hold with us.
Future letters will be written by Mira
Grasty giving Staunton's advantages in
detail.

Hints for Teachers.

Hints for Teachers.
Know the character of the children.
Intellectual athletics are needed daily.
Artifciality is to be avoided at any cost of
effort.
Wake up the class, and do not magnify
failures.
A new setting for old methods is always
welcome.
Do not ask the same of slow children as
of the quick.
Do not deluge your school with informa-
ton on any subject in which you are spe-
cialist.
There will be prose enough in the life OF
every child if you put into 1t all the s,oetry
you can.
Good paragraphing is one of the essentials
of good writing that many teachers do not
appreciate.
Know what you wish to do when you go
to the recitation, and what you have done
when you leave it.
Teach child how to use books, and you
