MonlLE, ALA, Sept. o.-The Louis.

and compelled the messenger 10 Turn
over the contents Of his safe. After hsy.
ing secured the valuables, tho robbt,s
escaped to the woods.
The first news OF tho robbery recsiv d
IN Mobile by railway officials was but
meagre. Tho train was held up about
half mile above Flomaton junction,
and the people there know very little Of
what occurred, for the train was delayed
seven minutes only, and there was not
much chance Of learning whit had oc.

In his face. He was told to run his trai,,
up to the Escanaba river bridge, some
miles distant, and stop on the bridp,,
There was nothing left for him to do bvt
obey and he did so. There the train
stopped on the bridge. The engineer
was told to get off his engine, and be did

his hand. Sizer did so. and
burst open the car door. Express
Messenger johnson was standing
10 his car with his pistol in his
hand, but seeing Sizsr lie lowered +.
That minute he was covered and told to
lay down his gun, and he obsyed. Then
The robber standing in tho car door
compelled the messenger to open hi,
safe and hand him all the money.
While this operation was going on the
fellow was standing in the open door
coolly looking at his victim and firing
irst to one side OF the train aud then the
other, to overawe the passengers and tho
train crow. When he got the money tn.
robber told Sizer to follow him. The mpn
showed the way to the engine, bade
Sizsr pull out, and with a parting shot
and wild yell dashed oil into the bushes
and WAS lost to sight.
A posse has lefs Flomaton and an
other has left Mobile in pursuit of the
robbers. Some surprise is expressed
here that the robbers selected this par

other trains carry most OF the express

After the good beginning OF the day
before, the teachers were all in their
places yesterday morning at o'clock,
and were seemingly ready for good
days work. The instructors are making
a good impression, and the teachers 40
all taking an active interest, and it is
certain that this weeks work will tell
for good on all the schools throughout
the year. .of. 1os@
After singing, prayer and roll call, DR..
Payne continued his talk on teaching.
II the meaning Of word cannot be
understood, he said, present its picture
u possible. Sometimes the picture is
better than the thing itself. II the pic.
ture cannot be presented, consult the
dictionary. Teaching has lie mysteries.
Good teaching will always promote in.
tellectual growth. pesta!ozzi says: "Just
as plant grows, so child grows,"
Growth implies food. As the food Of
the body is bread, so ia knowledge the
food Of the mind, Tho growth of the
body depends upon the amount Of food
assimilated, aud 80 the growth OF the
mind depends upon the amount Of
knowledge assimilated. The samo holds
good as to the kind OF food used for
both mind and body. One OF the great
secreta OF good teaching ia 10 create an
appetite and not Batiate it. This leaves
the pupil craving knowledge. lgr
AN INTELLECTUAL APPETITE e
must be created and stimulated. In
this reopeot it differs from the physical
appetite. AS in the physical nature the
appetite ought to be little greater than
the supply taken, 30 the teacher should
create an appetite little in advance OF
the supply just at hand. Growth i'm.
plies organism. The mind is the organ
for intellectual gro.th. The mind is
partly automatic and partly under the
control al tho will. Most Of mental
power or wisdom comes to us uncon.
sciously. We may compel our minds to
act, and We can compel or lead the
lninds OF our pupils to act, 49, l5'
