know what the present is doing.
The animated discussion that fol-
lowed, showed that the teachers
appreciated the paper, and were going
to use its suggestions. The topic was
left till the next meeting, when
several papers will be read from
teachers that have tried it. Miss
Cummings, of our city, has one of
the leading papers.
The published program of the day
being completed, the formal meeting
adjourned after having listened to a
very encouraging address from Rev.
Tiff, of the M. E, church, at Dodge.
vile, and vocal solos from Mrs. Lewis.
The success of the first meeting is
a very hopeful sign for the greater
success of the next. A program COM
mittee is now at work, and a program
of interest to teachers and school
work may be expected.

cI.ibraries, open free to all who
choose to use Them" says The Wiscon-
sin Journal of Education, "must be
reckoned among the most important
educational institutions which our
communities can establish. Besides,
aiding to expand and enrich the work
of our public schools, they serve to
continue 1t after graduation, and to
create and maintain interests which
powerfully promote the good order
and intelligence Of community.
Clubs and organizations for private
study spring up about them; univer-
sity extension and public lectures
grow out of them; young people
especially are stimulated to better
interests and more thoughtful and
profitable development by them.
There Is no good reason why all our
towns and cities should not have
public libraries. The law permits a
tax for their support, and little
earnest effort on the part of those who
recognize their value for elevating the
tone Of social life will usually result In
tho establishment of one. A decided
interest In establishing such institu-
tons begin to appear, and we may
reasonably hope from it very valuable
results"

scarcely organized lines. to position
of eminence among western institu-
tions with It's students fast approach
ing the 1000 limit and its faculty
numbering hundred professors of
ability and prominence. The young
disciple of learning can pursue his in
vestigations through all the mysterious
and intricate paths of modern science,
guided by most efficient educators.
He can study Literature, History,
Languages, ancient and modern, in
spirea by the learning and erudition Of
profound and able men. Unequaled
advantages are offered for the study of
Law, Pharmacy, Engineering and Ag-
riculture. That these advantages are
appreciated is attested by the fact that
the University is attended by students
from nearly every state in the Union
and from foreign countries as well.
The utterances Of The Tribune are
unworthy Wisconsin paper. They
are inspired by that narrow, short
sighted policy that has from time i'm
memorial blocked the wheels of pro-
gress and retarded civilization and ad-
vancement. That the University has

NEW MILFORO'S ELM.
When the Ancient Tree Fell, 1t Wrecked
RailTond Train.

For more years than any dile can re-
member an elm tree of extraordinary
size has stood in the village of New
Milford, PA. 1t was thcro when the first
settlers arrived, and as tho woods were
cleared away it was left untouched by
the woodman S ax. Its trunk was nearly
four feet in diameter, and its branches
cast thoir shade for moro than 100 feet
around. When the Delaware and Lack
awtnna railroad was built through New
Milford, moro than 10 years ago, tho
track ran close to the old tree, and tho
station was erected almost in its shade.
Its great height and wide spread of
branches offered favorable mark for
storm and tempest, but, while other
trees were uprooted from time to time
tins grand old tree doiicd the clements.
1t seemed as sound Us it WAS when tie
pioneers first saw it and WAS famous
landmark.
One night lately, as the locomotive of
q west bound freight train was opposite
1t, tho great elm foil and crushed tho
engine. Not breath of air was stirring
at the time. The engineer, Timothy
Common, and his firemen were buried i'll
tho wreck Of tho locomotive, and sew
eral freight cars were piled up and min
gled with the ruins of tree and engine.
Both the engineer and frcmen were
taken from the wreck, and it was found
that neither had received as much ms q
scratch. Fred Bell. brakeman, jumped
from bis car and was badly hurt. There
Is nothing revealed in tho structure Of
the great elm to indicate why it should
have thus fallen without warning. 1t

what the consequences would have
been, says Delaware and Lacka-
wanna official, "if that tree had fallen

Lizzie and Ferdinand Schiess of st.

smonial record. no divorce petition is
Femembered in which so many sopara-
lions and reconciiations arc catalogued
as in that filed by Lizzie Sohiess, born
lHambrecht. She has been deserted in
nearly every large city in the United
States, but she never failed to put faith
la her husbands professions of repent
Rnce for past misconduct and promises
of future good conduct.
She kissed and made up every time
letting bygones DO bygones, until July

marriage, when Schiess gave her ticket

not written to her st Louis Republic.
