REPrRLIcAN METHODS.

Republicans yesterday stopped to all
the old-time political tricks, and these
not suflicing, they went to the extreme
OF inventing a number OF new ones.
Their headquarters on Market street was
a scene Of ccaseleSS activity all during
the day, and the branchhcadquarters at

very busy scene. From these two
places, as well as others, the town and
county was flooded with appeals to
voters, each appeal, as rule, carrying
with it number of ''Stickers." Que of
these letters, received by a Democrat.

Especially Interesting Exercises
at the Kindergarten Depart
ment.
The kindergarten department began
its opening session in the First Metho-
dist church at 3 o'clock yesterday after
noon with the large attendance which
has characterized all the meetings of
the association thus far, the building
being crowded to the doors, with stand
ing room at a premium. The assem-
blage was presided over by
Mrs. E. Hailman, of La Porte,
Ind, who. after the open
ing hymn and devotional exercises an
nounced that owing to the voidable
year, to fill her office, no report could
be had of the departments work. Mrs.
Mailman congratulated the delegates on
the progress the system has made since
the Nashville meeting and prophesied
even better things for the future.
Mrs Helen E. Starrett, of Chicago,
was introduced as the first speaker of
the meeting and read all interesting adj
dress on the kindergarten system from
an outside standpoint. She said: ITO the
unreflective mind, the fundamental
principles of this system of schools for
educating children and the idea of beli-
citing them by thorough training does
not seem of much account. But as re-
suit of my five years experience with
the work have become an enthusiast
for its methods and learned to appre-
ciate its methods. The first thing that
strikes lin well conducted school of
this nature is the evident happiness of the
al, Nd ic In fret itap nj
of human nature. The occupation of
the pupils, though divided and syste-
matiZed according to the laws of devel-
opment. possesses, nevertheless,
charm that cannot be overestimated
The pupils are taught to learn exact
ness, and above all symmetrical de-
sign of whatever little work they are
set about.
Looked at from purely selfish stand
point, the kindergarten is bound to do
away with the aWkwardness and unre-
finement so often found in the little
children of the lower classes, and at the
same time the best results in manual
training schools will be found where
pupils have received their early educa-
tion in this line at the institutions
which we advocate. But the best work
of all from an outside standpoint, and
what most impresSes the outside
observer is the spiritual develop
ment Of the child; the thoughtIessly
cruel instinct is turned into a sympa-
thetic gentleness, and the germ of
morality blossoms into the flower of
goodness and virtue.
After a fine vocal solo had been rem
dered by Miss Merehouse, the president
announced the following committees:
On nominations, N. G. Schaeffer, Mrs.
E. Baker and Mary S. Clark; on reso-
buttons, Mrs. W. n. Mailman, Mrs. E.
B. Whitcomb and Lucy A. Wheelock.
There was some discussion as to the
proprIety of appointing a committee to

Miss Lucy A. WheelOck, of Massa-

as follows: We constantly use in our
language the connection between the
outer and the inner, and that is what is
being accomplished in the kindergar-
tens. To make this world mean some
thing to the child is the first great
principle. The pupil begins to think,
when brought to realize what it has
really seen or heard, and prime essen
tial in a fitting education is begun.

education is firmly formed.

applause. Prot. Shepard said: 1.-The
history of education is the history of
the worlds efforts toward a better
civilization, and when our educational
history is written it will be found
that our national university is
the work of primary schools. The
present demand for manual train
ing had its origin in the successful in
PRODUCTION of object lessons in drawing,
of the elementary schools,and is perman-
emily fixed. The problem in hand must
be approached from a view, which re-
cognizes the great corner stone of our
educational system. The first step in
this WORK embraces methods and signs.

capabilities of a child. Work of kin

cation, which fitting the child for higher

Weeks

An Illinois Pauper Fasts for Eight
Weeks.
GALENA, ILL.,, July 9.-John Roth,
pauper. in the county hospital, is the
greatest rival of the illustrious Tanner
that has come to the front of late. This
remarkable faster, according to the tes-
timony of the county physician and Of
Supt. Byrne, has not tasted food. solid
or liquid, in eight weeks, and his re-
markable period of abstinence has re-
duced him physically to slight degree
only. He is native of Switzerland,
and for some years has made his
home at Scales Mound, this county. On
May % last he was brought to the
county house, and since that time not a
morsel of food has passed his lips. AS
his fast began week before he was
brought to the hospital, he has existed
under these remarkable conditions for
the seemingly impossible period of
eight weeks, vet he has not reduced
greatly in flesh, and seems as well as
when his fast began. He suffers with
paralysis. which, while not preventing
his swallowing. seems to affect the other
digestive organs. He has not even drank
water. but his lips are kept moist by
applying water to them.
