CoTroN SEED OiL VS.. LARD.-ws are .
strong believer in the use Of cotton seed oil
10 the place Of lsrd We consider it health
ier and much cleansf, and as it costs less, 1t
is worthy trial Ia these times of high
priced lard and bacon. As an incentive for
our good housekeepsrs 10 give cottonlens o
trial, we republish The following commenda-
ton from our neighbor, the Carolina Spar
tan:
shockley Long handed US a sample of
cottonlene last week for trial. When used
in making bread one cannot tell it from
pure fresh lard. It is made Of cotton seed
oil. It's pure and clean and 20 per cent.
cheaper than lard. 1t is claimed for il that
the same resulisc Yett -hss acquired by using
about two-thirds fG9 tquan,ity of Lard com :.
monty used. p4atiable oils have been
largely used by the Nivilized people of the
world and they are considered more health-
full than the animal fats. There is NO reason
why the oil from cotton seed should not be
as good or better than lard.

nay- Wade Haine,. the allsoed mprde

B6S- Wade Haine., the alleged murderer
of Miss Florence Hornesby, in Richlaud
county, who was sentenced to be hung last
Friday, was redpited by Governor Tillman
just before the time Of execution, to the 2lst
of April. From what we have read in the
Columbia papers, we think the respite was
not only prudent but merciful. major
ity Of the people in that county appear to
have strong doubt as to Haine3 being the
guilty party; while the prisoner himself
persistsntly protests that he is innocent of
the crime. The respite was read to him
during the religious exercises preparatory
to the expected moment of execution, when
the prisoner and his friends had given ND
oil hope for arespite or pardon, but up to that
time he solemnly asserted that not only was
he innocent of the Grim, himself, but he
knew nothing about it. Governor TiIlman
visited the prisoner and talked with him in
his cell the day before, and, no doubt, be.
came impressed with doubt as to his guilt,
SO tempering mercy with The stern demands
Of justice, gave him the BENEFIT of that
doubt, in the hope that, if innocent OF the
crime. some new light may appear to reveal
the guilty party and save him from an ig-
nominous death.

FEARFUL AND DESTRUCTIVE PHENOMENON
Panama, March 24.-A tremendous pbc
nomenon has occurred in the department o.
Canca, in the republic of Colombis
The volcano Of Dolcano Sotara has been
unusually active and the people of tha,
region were greatly excited by the rumblinp

of the volcanic eruptions. Suddenly. While
the volcano was belching forth flame and
smoke to great height, the earth began to
shake as if the most violent convulsion was
IN progress and the mountain ridge called
cruz Iona sank along its entire extension.
The Inhabitants in the vicinity who had n
chance to escape fled in terror from the
scene, and not too soon, as the sunken ridge
damned up the three rivers, and added
iesoIation to the terror of the earthquake
and volcano.
Twelve persons are known to have perish.

destruction is feared as the rivers, whose

One of the most critical o. recent writers
defines tesobiug as the act Of presenting
objects and subjects of thought to the pupils
mind as occasions of mental activity and
knowledge: Instruction as the pupils aotiv-
ity and knowledge, occasioued by teaching
and education rs the state of mind produced
by instruction.
These definitions make teaching the teach
er's act. Instruction the pupils act, and
education tho result Of both. The practical
difficulty in using these terms in such radi-
cally distinct senses is the fact that they are
imbeddod in literature as nearly syncpy-
nous, being often used as identical and
interchangeable, and the same is true Of the
soguate terms, teacher, instructor and edu-
Gator. Teaching is the application of such
means to the pupils mind rs to occasion
those mental activities that result in know
and coordinate ends. Teaching is the
occasion, the pupils activity the cause, and
knowledge, power or skill the result.
Teaching includes both instruction and
training; instruction being that part Of
teaching which results in knowledge, and
training that part which results in power aud
skill. While these different processes are
distinguishab!e in thought, they are not
separable in practice. Instruction is the
act Of presenting objects and subjects to
the pupils mind in such manner ss to occa-
sion those mental activities that result in
knowledge. Instruction is the occasion,
the pupils mental activity the cause. and
knowledge is the result.
Training is the o:casioning and directing
Of the pupils activities in such manner
as to result iu power aud skill, mental,
moral and physical. Training involves
doing or practice, with power and skill as
ends as to train an army of soldiers, to
usgra -HEsrD.rs,--
The words training and drill are practically
Synonymous.
Education is auy process or act which
results in knowledge, or power, or skill.
II includes not only teaching aud learning.
but all acts, processes and influences which
occasion these results, whether as scholar
ship, culture, habit or character.
Thus we see that education is o more
comprehensive term than teaching, and
teaching more comprehensive than instruc.
ton.

Welded IN DEATH.-Pass Christian, Miss,
March ia most startling discovery was
made here today of the bodies of Miss Julia
Nunnemacher, daughter of Herman Nunue-
macher, prominent merchant of Milwau-
kee, and william f. Miller, also Of Milwau-
kee, both of whom had been shot throuph b
the head.
This afternoon young boy found the
bodies In pine thicket on the north side
OF the railroad, about 200 yards from the
depot. From the position in which they
were lying the supposition is that the young
man must have first shot his companion
through the left temple aud then shot him.
ser oehind the right ear ,and death in both
instances must have resulted Instantly.
The affair was evidently premedita,ed. as
Mr: Miller had borrowed a pistol from one
OF the citizens on that corning The deadly
weapon was found by his side, where it had
fallen after he had fired the fatal shot.
