Thi, is the az, of books hul bt,ircEs
There ore more books being puh'isWeut ryw

OF books now than ever before. \ great
minority of the books published and read
nowadays are absolutely worthless and II
large proportion of them positively harmful.
These have their influence and are mould

more, aud is actually making it - is the
most respected and is most influential i'll
every spne of action. Some sly that 1t
is b,calse he has moaey; others because he
has the ability TO "'ake money.
In books and business is well represented
theory and practice. These ought to work

but rs q rule the theoriz.r is a poor practi-
TONER, and the practical mln seldom thcOriz

a pendu!lum, when one quality goes up al
other goes down. Several hundred years
ago the man who knew most about books who
did the most abstract thinking, VIII c. III

AUGUSTA TEACHERS
Meet at the Williams Grammar School Build
ing-Large Attendance.

The monthly meeting of the Augusta
Teachers Association, held, yesterday, at
the Williams grammar school building on
Bangor street, was well attended.
The class exercise in arithmetic by Mr..
Lewis was listened to with much interest.
He presented paper upon teaching per
centage in which was taken up many
practical suggestions relative to fractions.
A class of fifteen pupils did some very
fine work upon the blackboard as well as
oral work The exercises showed that the
pupils possessed marked ability in grasp
ing the meaning of difficult problems. We
are pleased to mention the system and
neatness they displayed in their work.
Following the class exercise was dis
cussion by Mr.. Cooke upon Latin and
Greek in the high school. Mr.. Cooke
made strong argument in favor of the
same. Mr.. Chamberlain, Miss Fuller
and Miss Reynolds spoke upon the subject.
This was the only time the meeting
was ever held in Williams District and so
successful was the result that it is hoped
there may be more of them held in the
new grammar school building in the
future

ENGINEERS FAULT.
Report on the Falmouth Accident and Other
Decisions by Railroad Commissioners.

The railroad commissioners make a
special report on the accident which &C.
CURED on the Grand Trunk railway at
Falmouth, on Feb II. The commission
ers made the investigation, Feb. II. The
accident was collision occasioned by a
passenger train running into the rear end
OF freight on siding, with the rear end
Jotting out onto the main track The
commissioners found The facts to be that
that the night was foggy and dark, and
so many trains were there that the freight
extended onto the main line. But the
signals were all up, SO the passenger
train should have stopped. The engineer
OF the passenger train, Fothingville,
didn't slow up enough SO to see the soma
phorc signal and stop the train without a
signal. The commissioners find the en-
gineer responsible for the accident from
the fact that the rules implicitly state
that he should have the train under con-
troll especially in such weather as not to
uh Pftoo a ustHStI SiSIIdi NJ OiIC tlSt ID
held at fault. The commissioners state,
however, that it is unfortunate that where
so many trains cross there should not be
sufficient siding to sidetrack them.
The commissioners have issued a certifi-
cate to the Wiscasset & Quebec Railroad
to run over their road from Wiscassct to
Weeks Mills. The rate fixed is 10 miles
an hour until the ground settles and the
track is aligned and surfaced.
The commissioners have approved Of
r. until the new law passed by the pres
cnt Legislature.

Cushnoc Heights Robbery.

1t was sometime about midnight
Thursday, that Morris Dcvine's place OF
business on Northern avenue was broken
into and between $l2 and $l5 stolen from
the money drawer.
Mr.. Dcvine keeps cigar and candy
store in the basement of grocery
and has one clerk. A resident of Cush-
noe Heights was passing up Northern
avenue between II and ~ O'Clock and
saw dim light and someone in the store
in his shirt sleeves, but took no special
notice of him.
Entrance was obtained by cutting out a
norton of the front window and it seems
apparent that the thief was familiar with
the premises. 1t is believed by man who
will probably work on the case that he
knows who the guilty party is.
