Normal Scientific Course.

We have embraced, as the above title implies
practically two courses of study in one, with two
objects in view.
1. To enable tho student TO acquire a sound.
practical English education.
3. To establish a Training School with super.
for facilities for educating and preparing youns
men and women for professional teachers.
The scope Of this course is comprehensive, EN-
bracing as IL does, those subjects. which ara Of
prime Importance in securing mental culture that
tends TO prepare for intelligent citizenship rs
we'll ms the ltfe-work of a teacher.
The essential difference between "A State Nor.
nal School aud this institution is, that the for
mor, in addition 10 teaching the s~ubject-matter,
dwetls at lOngth on tho proper method uf pre-
senting each subject. In other words, subject
matter and methods go hand in hand. While in
the latter a teachers class is formed, where
Didactics and Methods are made a special feat
ure, but are entirely distinct ard separate
from the scientific course, and are OulV intended
10 be pursued by those uho desire ~ teach,
When properly understood, this plan at once
comments Itself to the public, as it does not oc-
casiOp the unnecessary expenditure OF time and
money to become proficient in that of which no
practical application Is To bc made IN the future,
This is an age OF practical utility. Time and
money should be expended upon subjects that
will best qualify the pupil to enter upon life

FARMERS AT THE MARKET
A Delegation Waits on the Commission

A Delegation Waits on the Commission
ers to Advocate Their Claims.
The Commissioners yesterday afternoon
gave hearing to a committee composed of
Messrs b. Baggett, Horace Crosies, R. B.
Houser, and B. Randall, who represented the
wholesale farmers doing business at Centre
Market, in regard to the standing space for
these dealers on the south side of B street
For long time there has been considerable
complaint that the system in force there was
inefficient and unjust. The committee ex-
planned the disadvantages of the present
methods, which allows the first to arrive the
choice of the best places. There were, they
said, about $50 farmers who came to the
market every day, and these, they believed,
should have regular stands where their ems
toners could always find them. 1t was also
recommended that the space for each person.
which Is now six feet, should be increased to
eight. Claims have been made that farmers
were unjustly taxed by certain men who
showed partiality for a consideration
to reserve choice places for them. 1t is be-
leved, however, that the matter will be salts
factorily settled by Major Aldrieh, to whom
the matter was REFERRED as it is understood
that he now has in preparation set of
regulations to cover these cases.
In reference to this same matter Preston s
Smith, clerk Of Centre Market, Yesterday for
warded long communication to the Com
missioners in answer to letter of complaint
written by Mr.. w. j. Morris on this subject
to the Commissioners.

The awful disaster in New York, where so
many people lost their lives by the sudden
and utter collapse of the building in which
they were employed, calls attention once
more to the danger arising from inadequate
building inspection. Here was an old struct-
ure, never built for the purpose to which it
was latterly applied, nor made to bear the
strain which was put upon it, yet over
weighted on it's upper floor with heavy ma
chinery, and shaken and racked throughout
by the thud, force, and vibration of its move
ment. 1t was again and again visited by in
spectors whose pretended inspection was a
farce, who saw nothing wrong and reported
nothing 1t is to be hoped that the investigs-
tion which is about 10 be made will ascertain
all the facts and that the blame will be placed
where it belongs. 1t is not too much to re-
quire that the buildings in which hundreds of
human beings are employed daily shall be abb
solutely safe, and this investigation will do
good, not to New York alone, but to other
cities as well, if it discovers how building in
spection may be made more efficient, and how
likewise its responsibilities may be rendered
more binding.

teaching the moves to his two elder brothers
and bis sister. Louis was intended to become
gentleman farmer, but in 1854 he emigrated
with his brother Ernest to this country and es-
tablished a business in Dubuque, Iowa He
cultivated chess with such success that he re-
ceived in 1857 an invitation from Chicago to
take part in tournament. Having beaten
the strongest players In that city, he was per-
suaded to take part in the first American
Chess Congress in New York in 1857. Paulsen
won the second prize, Morphy being first. Nor
ply was the only player who beat him. He
lost against him five games, won one, and
drew two. In New York Paulsen first tried
his skill as blindfold player. Out of five
games played simultaneously he won four
and drew one. This achievement created such
sensation at that time that the New York
Chess Club gave him gold medal Subse-
quently he played seven, then ten, and finally
fifteen games simultaneously. In 1860 he re-
turned to Europe and challenged Morphy,
who refused to play with him. He engaged
In number of contests, the most memorable
one of which was with Kolsch This match
was drawn after Paulsen had won seven, lost
six; there were eighteen draws. In the Lon
don tournament of 1862 Paulsen won the Sec
ond prize, but afterward beat the winner
Andersen. His life almost up to the time of
his death was series of triumphs, and he was
several times first. In 1889 in Breslau he
divided the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh
prizes.

MAJOR MCKINLEY last week justified the
tariff on tin-plate by its results. 'We are
making american tin-plate,' he said with re-
freshing audacity, because this Yankee ma
ton can make everything" Presently hewas
asked why there is no duty on sewing needles.
Sewing needles are admitted free,'' said he,
because we cannot make them in America
This is dreadfully inconsistent, but it is excel
lent Republican stump speaking.

''ON with the dance'' was the signal on
board of the French fleet in the English
Channel, where gallant Frenchmen and noble
and beautiful English ladies threaded the in
tricacies of the mazy. All at once tradi-
tional spithead signal blew. The sailors life
lost all interest for the British beauties, as
they sighed for the unattainable land The
French scarcely felt at home till well within

PRESIDENT HARRIsoN's speeches through
New England last week have been appro-
pirate and in good form. Of course, his posi-
ton restricted him to mere platiiudes, but he
expressed these with ease and grace, and de-
livered them with cheerfulness and manifest
sincerity that gave them interest. Here and
there was trace of humor which was duly
appreciated.
