Light wires In Montevideo.

Early in March one OF the electric
wires - tho corner of Cailo 10 do Julio
broke and fell on the road. Two horses
In market cart passing by were thrown
down by the electric current tho mo-
ment they touched tho wire, which was
giving ont sparks as it lay on the ground,
and the driver was thrown off his seat.
A policeman attempted to clear the wire
from the horses fleet" with his sword,
when he was Immediately knocked
down by the force Of the electricity. lie
managed to get on his feet, but was
again knocked down. Some OF the
lookers-on went and pulled him of the
wire, and in doing SO one Of them was
knocked down, but managed to save
himself by rolling of the wire. Imme-
diately afterward tramcar drawn by
three horses arrived. and all the ami
mails fell on coming into contact with
the wire. by this time the men Of the
electric light company appeared on the
scene. Ono OF them was for time pre-
vented by the police from touching tho
wire, but afterward one of them seized
the wire with a tongs to try to cut IL,
and was at once thrown on his back; but
the tongs fell from his hands and he
was able to get up again. Some moro
OF the company's men arrived shortly
after, and tho horses were rescued. The
men then set about to repair the wire in
order to got light In the Gale Is de Julio
and other streets that were in darkness

EDUCATION IN BOYhOOD.
In These Days Ideas Differ Widely fro

In These Days Ideas Differ Widely from
Those Held Formerly.
What should boy who is moving
along the lines OF the higher education.
and whose good fortune it is to have the
best Of chances, know at the age Of
eighteen? In these days educational
theories differ widely, and wisely, from
those held half q century ago, and the
process now is inductive and reflective
rather than merely accumulative. For
merly the main thing considered was
mental discipline, whereas now the pur-
pose is to keep the mind alert, expect
ant, enthusiastic, presenting to the stu
dents the delights of learning instead OF
depressing them with its hardships and
sternness. This new educational intel
ligence makes it possible for the young
man Of feighteen to be more thoroughly in
structed and widely informed than was
his father or grandfather at that age
When there has been born into the mind
of youth the pleasure and the desire OF
knowing, the question Of how much he
can receive finds its answer in the pro-
portion Of time and opportunity for
study. How this shall be done can not
be prescribed as fixed rule. To ascer-
tain the means to arousing pupils must
be the teachers study.
Language should not be studied SIM
ply for its datiyes or genitives. 1t should
be studied for itself. Don't bother the
boy with distractions; give him mean
ings. Let the thing gained be help to
life and thought, not a burden to one
nv,lN ~ u ~
comes with ideas. The young mind
must have something tangible to grasp
or the reasoning faculties will work
slowly. Once these powers are set
smoothly in motion their developement
is sure. Memoriter recitations made
the old system dry and Gninspiring. OF
old we used to get the facts: now we use
the fact as the index to an idea, the re-
suit being not tax upon the memory
but stimulus to the intellect History
is now taught for its values and rela-
tives, for that which may be deducted
from it as we'll Is for that which is in it.

are keen in boyhoood, and there is
cheerful hope for the youth whose mind
and heart are stirred with love for all
