Rumor That IA Sincere Apology Has Been
Ordered by Chilli.
NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-The correspond
ent of The Herald telegraphs his paper
from Valparaiso that he hears that the
Chiiian government has cabled orders to
Minister Pedro Montt ar Washington to
make sincere apology to the United
States for the unfortunate and deplor-
able attack upon the Baltimore sailors
on Oct. 10 last. The apology, he is told,
is unqualified in its character. Other
matters that are in dispute between
Chill and the United States are to be
speedily considered by the new admin
istration. The correspondent also saws
that from semi-oficial sources he learns
that the reason the Santiago police are
kept in the vicinity of the American
legation is that the intendente of the
city is in daily receipt of letters contain
ing threats to burn and sack the lega-
ton. The government, therefore, de-
sires to have the police near at hand so
as to prevent the execution of any such

AN experiment with dynamite car
terages for the purpose of clearing stumps
out of land, was tried last Tuesday after
noon on the farm of Mrs. Cain in Mil
ford Neck. It attracted considerable
attention from land owners of this place
who went down to see the work, which
was thorough and demonstrated that it
was cheaper plan than even stump
puller. The carterages were placed and
exploded by Mr.. Cain. First hole N
inches in diameter was bored directly
under the stump with an augur, and the
carteTage which is about inches long,
placed directly under the stump and then
exploded with a fuse. The report was
dull sound about as loud as that made by
a gnn, but not so sharp, and from it the
air was filed with earth and fine roots,
Partially decayed stumps were lifted
clear, and even small stumps were left
standing on their roofs like long legged
spiders. A white oak stump ~ feet in
diameter and from which the tree had
been cut not more than six months was
selected to operate on. After the explo'
sion the stump was found bursted into
as many fragments as it had large roots
and partially lifted from the ground-so
that pnlling it out was but little labor.
Mr.. Cain says the carterages cost about
six cents each, aud to get each stump
out and the hole filed cost about eight
cents which saves 50 per cent over
stump puller.

The local Teachers Institute in North
Milford last Saturday was well attended
These meetings being made up of the
most progressive teachers in tue com
munity; teachers WIZ are looking fol
something better outside of and beyond
themselves. are already making great
changes for the better along many lines
of teaching.
Good methods need not be confined to
the few any longer. They are within
the reach of all. We had a good oppor-
tuuity to see the way in which school
work was doue by several of the most
experienced teachers. The visit to the
different departments of the North Mil
ford school was in itself valuable object
lesson.
Miss Fuulk showed us her way Of teach
ing the forms of land and water by rep
resenting them (the forms) to the eye of
the pupil She teaches fractions by show
ing the pupil the parts Of an apple-or
similar object-and further extends the
work by using discs representing wide
range of fractions. A teacher has only
to see this mode ofinstruction in order to
feel the great superiority it has over the |
old way of learning mere words that have |
no meaning to the young child.
Mrs. Titus showed her method of teach
ing number" by using shoe pegs, splints,
etc. also how she taught pupils, not
only to spell words, but how to use them
correctly in sentences.
Supt Tindal claims that the amount of
good done the pupil by the spelling ex-
ercise is measured by the increase III his
vocabulary, and that to have the pupil in-
corporate the words of the spelling les
son in sentences, is the best means to &C.
this end.
Much good work in drawing, letter c
writing and arithmetic, was seen in Mrs.
Roat's room.
Mr. Isaac R. Jester, who always takes
a lively interest in teachers meetings, a
exhibited some exercises done by his T
pupils in drawing, language, maps, ETC., o
hat showed that the country pupil could s
10 just as fine work as the town pupil, a
provided his teacher use the same ad- v
,anced methods. a
The discussion showed that all were f
greed upon the fact that the very best Il
way to teach was to put facts, ideas, and a
Mental pictures, in the pupils mind be- u
ore be is called upon to memorize def q
litiOns and rules that are mere meaning
ess words to him.
Supt. Tindal believes that the average -
tandard of the public schools can be =,
aised at least two years, provided the best W
lethod of instruction in all the branches h,
used. st
A teachers meeting will be held in ca

was pulled out, but the contents and top

some light on the subject. No alarm was
blown from the fire station, aud but few
knew OF the affair.
