VINCENT TO THE PUPILS.
Tho Methodist Bishop Talks at the High
School This Morning.


At the high school assembly room this
morning at 9 o'clock Bishop ]. H. Vim
cent, of the Methodist church, addressed
i talk to the pupils of the high school.
1t was in the bishops best vein and in
teresting. 1t was for the most part an
eulogy of the soldier and of the memoir
ial day.
He said the young should be taught
reverence for the old soldier and the G.
a. r.; that it should respect the veteran
and understand the meaning of the
Decoration Day exercises.
The schools should teach that, he said,
as we'll as patriotism. He would like to
have the young brought up to respect
the south to the end that the feeling en-
gendered by the war might be forever
wiped out. There should be no sectarian
or political feeling allowed in the public
schools.
The address was sprinkled with sew
eral personal "reminiscences of General
Grant

THOROUGH CROP REPORTS
A New System VIII Put a Correspondent
in Every Township in the Country.


in Every Township in the Country.
WASHINGTON. May ga scheme to
make an important change in the sys-
tenn of crop reporting is about to be put
into operation by the agricultural de-
partment
A correspondent will be located in
every township, and he will be required
to report promptly to the department
The plan will first embrace only twenty
states, ranging from New York to the
innermost of the central states, but
these comprise ninety per cent of
the wheat area. They include
1889 counties, and the greatness of
the scheme is apparent when it is taken
into consideration that the number of
townships in county averages about
10. The present system provides for
one chief reporter in every county, who
is expected to properly receive and
weigh the reports of the others in
the same county. There are now about
1,S)0 chief correspondents and about
5000 spondents in all.
The new plan cannot be put in opera
ton before next year.
