THE ROUND TABLE MEETING
Inst Night-Ilow to Improve tho Methods
of Teaching Discussed.


At the meeting OF the Round Table
last night at the Library building, the
following public school superintendent
were present: Messra. Anderson,
Gwynn, Riggs, Mitchell, Williams, Mer-
rick, Rossiter, Rea, Duncan, Mertz and
Gladding. Tho question was asked,
"What special work are you trying to
do for your schools this Year,"
Mr.. Gladding said he was trying to
get his pupils TO work because they
ought TO do the work, not because they
feel like doing it. lie is doing this by
showing that the successful man is II
who has his faculties under control,
II who follows out n line Of work
whether the work is altogether pleasant
or not.
In response to the question: GLOW
can you get the bad pupils to do better?"
Prof. Anderson said he would appeal to
the reason OF the child. Mr.. Mcrrick
thought it would DO we'll to separate
such pupils and make a special effort to
awaken their interest in some one
branch. Mr.. Duncan thought this was
Il good plan. but that tho teacher with
fifty pupils could not spare the time
necessary to devote to such u purpose.
1t was suggested that such pupils
might be put back into a class for
which they are fitted. Most OF the
gentlemen thought such pupils should
be advanced after they have spent two
terms III one grade. Let them have a
change OF pasture, and perhaps a new
teacher may be able to awaken an
interest in them; at any rate they
would not be benefited by remaining
more than two years in one grade.
The corporal punishment was
brought up; when, where and how it
should be inflicted. It was agreed that
it cannot be wholly dispensed with, but
some favored its use in extreme cases
only, when all other means have failed.
In regard to the ACCESSIBILITY OF estab-
fishing IN ungraded school for incorri-
gibles in towns OF 5000 inhabit-
ants and upwards. Mr.. Gladding
said this had been tried in East
Liverpool with success. Others
thought this might work well, by re-
lieviug the weak teacher OF the one or
two troublesome pupils, who occupy u
large part Of the teachers time and en-
crgy at the expense OF the whole school.

IN GOVERNMENT CIRCLES.

Statement in the Italian Parliament
Blaine Hears from Nichols
ROME, March 17.-In the chamber OF
deputies yesterday Marquis Di Rudini,
the Italian prime minister, made state
ment with regard to the killing in New
Orleans. The premier informed the cham.
Der that the Italian government had
taken prompt cognizance of the affair. and
had at once placed itself in communities
tion with the American government
through the Italian minister at Washing
ton, Baron De Fava. In response to its
representations the Italian government
had received the assurance that President
Harrison recognized the right of Italians
resident in the United States to the pro-
lection of the government and laws OF
that country. This assurance was accom-.
panied by an expression of the profound
regret felt by the president for the unfor'
tunate occurrence.
Italy's Power i'm Case of War.
1t is stated that orders were given yes
terday to suspend the directions pre-.
viously given for diminishing the active
force of the navy. Without any doubt
the Italian navy is now one of the finest
in the world, and could easily block en-.
trance to the Mediterranean to any power
except France or England, while sending
swift sailing cruisers to every ocean to
prey on the commerce of an enemy. AS
to the Italian commerce, it is largely con.
fined to the Mediterranean.
