Teachers, Institute.

Institute opened with an enrolment of
80. We were disappointed in not meet
ing Prof.s Pendergast and McCleary as
expected, but our energetic superintend-
ent, Mr.. Rocholl was on hand, and in
PRODUCED to us Prot. Schumacher, author
of the new state Arithmetic, and Miss
Patterson of st. Paul, and we were soon
convinced that our disappointment was
TO become distinct pleasure.
Prof. Schumacher presented the subject
of Multiplication of Fractions, and made
the subject so clear that we do hope the
children of Stearns county may receive
the benefit. Miss Patterson conducted
the reading exercise as she would have
the teachers do in their schools, and the
generous use of note books spoke well
for future Improvement. On Tuesday
morning we were happy to greet Mr..
McLeary, WHO needs no Introduction to
the people of Stearns county. His re-
marks on Civil Government were very
instructive. He thinks the subject should
be presented orally to small pupils, not
mentioning the word Civil Government
or Civics. We were sorry to part with
Prot. Schumacher, who returned to st.
Cloud at noon.
After dinner Mar. McCleary favored us
with a reading from Shakespeare, Julius
-. ar, and the inter silence in the room,
the intense interest of the teachers, tod

and the exercise Of only few minutes
duration was one of the pleasantest OF
the day. As rest between intervals,
the names of noted men were mentioned.
all who were familiar with the names be-
ing requested to stand Rudini-not
Rubini-and Won caprivi being among
the list. But few-very few stood. The

Mr.. McCleary presented the subject OF

poorly understood, many teachers drop

Mr.. McCleary special vote of thanks
for this lesson, and it is to be hoped that
the pupils of the county NAV also receive
some benefit from it.
" eo1sider ourselves very fortunate
IN our instructors, and regret that the
people of our town show so little inter

is for the benefit of country schools, but
many of our country teachers have beer

When a man browns himself, rather
than meet an engagement on time, the
Union hardly thinks he would be real
up and down right strong candidate for
governor-[ Anoka Union.
SUCH inferrential illusions are simply
brutal, and imply statement which is
absolutely false. Just as the campaign
of that season opened Hon. Knute Nelson
fell from boat, while fishing near his
home in Alexandria and came so near
ending his existence that tive physicians
spent four hours in resuscitating him. 1t
is fact which can be easily verified by a
score of reputable persons who were wit
nesses OF the occurrence. Such being the
fact, and the HERALD has the best of au-
thority for its statement, it reiterates-
it is brutal to make such sneering insinu-
ations. The Union is reputable paper
but it cannot maintain its reputation as
such by giving currency to items like the
one quoted above. 1t has a perfect right
to oppose the candidacy Of Knute Nelson
but it should do it in a legitimate way.

"THE FORTRESS"

Thick Walls of the New ~Communipaw
Station Suggest a Name.
The new station in course of erection at
Communipaw will be the strongest and
finest station on the New Jersey Central
Railroad line in this city. The walls are
of stone aud will be TWO feet thick from
the foundation to the roof. The style
will be Queen Anne, with a fancy slate
roof. similar TO that at the Arlington ave-
nue. station. A double stairway will lead
to the platform, which will be much
longer than the old one now in use. The
building will be only one story high, but
on account of the great thickness of the
walls it has already been nicknamed
The Fortress" by the w-erkingnen en-
ployed on it.
One great benefit of the new station
viii be the improved system of running
trains. The fast express trains will run
OIL the outside tracks and the locals on
the tracks nearest the platform, thus
lesseDing the danger to passengers, who
will not be compelled to cross the fast
train tracks when leaving or entering the
cars as they must now, The work is being
done by Edwards Bros, of Lafayette, and
will be completed by September l. The
station will be surrounded by flower beds
and a fine lawn.
