A Breakdown.

The right front wheel came off a
wagon loaded with baled hay just
as it was crossing the street car
track, corner Alamo and Com
merce streets yesterday afternoon
and it was some time time before
it could be removed. In the
meantime it caused considerable
inconvenience to passersby in wag-
ons and buggies as well as COM
pletely blockading the street car
track, preventing the South
Heights car linel from maxim
connections with the Alamo street
line. The wagon belonged to a
countryman.

The Electric Typograph.

Telegraphic reproduction OF ell
ectrotypes for newspaper printing
is the latest achievement of cleo
trio invention. The innovation is
very remarkable, and consists in
the transferring and reproducing
of exactly similar newspapers in
different cities by telegraph. A
Berlin paper can, by the use Of this
machine, appear in all the larger
cities Of Germany at the same hour
in the morning without being sent
through the mails. The inventors
claim for their apparatus not only
increased rapidity, but they say
that it will reduce the cost OF
printing. The inventors and pa
tentees, Messrs. G. Meray-Horvath
and C. Roar, at Graz, describe the
workingof the apparatus as fol-
lows:
The copy is first OF all run off on
type ter, next to the typewriter
ten copy, whicherves as a cor
rector's proof, a special attach met
releases a narrow strip OF silvered
paper, which is covered by num-
Der Of short strokes and dots, con-
stituting an alphabet peculiar to
this machine. These strokes and
dots are made by means Of chemi-
cal fluid, which so changes the
metallic surface that the paper
becomes n-conductive. Any cor.
rections becoming necessary can be
made on strip Of silver paper
Insertion or cutting out Of copy is
also easily performed. After
being edited and corrected the
long strip Of single paper is rolled
up on a spool and inserted into a
telegraph apparatus, which, when
set in motion, reproduce the same
strokes and dots on similar silver
paper at any distance and any
number of apparatuses connected
at the same time. These strips OF
silvered paper are placed in the
"Electric Typograph." The strip
passes beneath six pc.nts Of elec-
trio contact covering the entire
"luIh vi bhO oNA AoNS'
This typograph operates in such a
way that the steel type represent
ing each character is impressed up
on a cardboard in the proper order.
An automatic mechanism provides
for the varying width Of the type,
for the spacing and alignment, and
for the moving of the cardboard at
the end of the line. The cardboard
fully covered with characters rep
resents one solid column OF copy,
aud it is ready for the electrotyper.
AS compared with the type-setting
machines now in use this appara-
tus gives the advantage Of correct
ing and editing the entire copy
from typewri item proof sheets.
The. inventors claim for the typo
graph that it will do the work OF
eight expert typesetters and save
two-thirds of the cost Of setting up
the copy by hand.

1rALY,s NATIONAL HOLIDAY
Expression of Catholics Regarding
the Same.

Expression of Catholics Regarding
the Same.
Italy today, celebrates the 25th
anniversary of the entering Of
Rome by the government troops
and storming and capture of the
Eternal city from the Pope's rule.
This has been designated by
Italy's king as the national holt
day, which has made it very I'M
pleasant to all Catholics.
Rev. E. NJ. Buffard, apostolic adj
ministrator of the diocese OF San
Antonio, has issued the following
note regarding this day:
In order to make reparation as
far as we can for the insult about
to be offered to our Holy Father in
Rome on September Doth by the
celebration of the twenty-fiith
anniversary of the forclble taking
OF the Eternal City, we desire and
ordain that five decades Of the
Holy Rosary and the Litany Of
Loretto be recited In each church
and chapel of this Diocese, dur
ing or Immediately after mass on
that day, or at any other hour,
which the respective priests may
prefer. We also request the laity
to attend as far as possible, and,
while imploring the divine protec-
ton for our Sovereign Pontiff,
thereby give renewed evidence of
their attachment to the Holy See.
E. M. BUFFARD,
Apostolic Administrator.
The Southern Messenger, regard
ing the celebration, says: "Bare-
faced humbug.-Italy Is going to
celebrate the Inauguration OF her
decadence and general misery, dis.
content and impending bankrupt
cy by a silver jubilee: What a
mockery! A monument to a
numerous army that stormed a
defenceless city! What a sham
The young emperor OF Germany
refuses to degrade his manhood
by a participation in such ridicu-
lous humbug. According to the
Berlin correspondent of the Swiss
Liberte, his majesty has written
to the holy father saying that he
would not thus offend one whom
he and eighteen millions of his
subjects respect so profoundly,
Never mind the oppressed Catho-
lie church can we'll afford to let
Italy have her whim; according
to all appearances she will only be
laughed at, and nobody believes
that she will live to celebrate her
golden jubilee"
The day will be celebrated in this
city by the italian colony in a
quiet manner tonight by private
picnic and dance at Corners grove,
on South Flores street, and on Sun
day, another, family picnic, will
be held.

A Dangerous Privilege Granted.

In order to drum up a crowd and
excite enthusiasm for the circus
performance last night, the big
steam calliope was allowed by the
police to parade the city streets
last night, playing its unearthly
notes. The trightful aspect of this
fiery, screeching thing greatly
frightened many horses met on
the way, and while no runaways
were caused, so far as learned, the
practice was very dangerous and a
repetition at the next circus is to
be deprecated.

certainly justify all that the Journal
said about Colonel Jester, and will furnish
ground for other things which the Jeur-
nal will, of course, have to say upon
this subject on the proper occasion in the
future. The Journal takes this occasion
to notify all politicians that the time has
passed that they can stab the school sys-
TEN of this State, and then fix up any
sort of a tlimsy excuse for their action,
and palm it off on the teachers. The
State Teachers association, at its last
meeting, took an advanced position on
this question, and hereafter public men
will be held to a strict account for the
manner in which they deal with the school
interests of Texas. The teachers are
thirteen Thousand strong in this State.
They are represented in every nook and
corner of the whole State. They are the
natural friends of 1.-THE public schools.
They will expect in future to have hon
est and fair treatment from legislators.
They want mo man in public position
who tries to carry water on both Shoul-
ders; who stabs the schools to secure favor
with their opponents, and yet poses as the
friend of the public schools. We give
Colonel Jester special notice that when he
and his sympathiSerS in the last serate
next run for Office, their records in the
Twenty-fourth legislature will give them
trouble in large quantities. and with eXes-
perating persistency. The journal now
has its headquarters at the State capital,
where it has easy access ITO all the rec
Ords" made by members of the legislature.
1t will be Il. part of the Journals mission
to inform it's readers what Legislators
show themselves to be real friends of the
schools, and what ones only pose as such
to catch votes.

general Writing imparts and records
knowledge. Reading is an art used IN
acquiring knowledge. Notation and
enumeration and other fundamental rules
of arithmetic and the symbols used i'm
music, and drawing are the tools of the
learner. Geography, physiology and ny
giene are types of studies that give. us
knowledge directly useful in practical
affairs. Languages, mathematics ana
sciences are grouped with the disciplinary
studies that exercise and so develop the
mental powers. Literature, art ana HIS
tory are culture studies.
These groups develop, but they are
classed according to their major value.
History has facts for o skeleton.
Facts by themselves are not history
until they are correlated. History has
guidance value, also high rank among in
formation Studies.
Experience is the lamp by which our
feet are guided, and history furnishes tine
past experience of the race. The present
was planted in the past. M,

SUPT. V. NJ. FULTON GIVES SOME
VALUABLE SUGGESTIONS ON
'"rhe Teacher of History" -Earnestness,
Thoroughness and Love of the Sub
ject Emphasized Teachers
See the Great Painting.

Yesterday morning the class in litera-
ture concluded a comparative review of
English and American poetry. Special
examples, illustrative of style, were chos-
EN- and discussed. References for particu-
lar poems and the difficulty of finding
immediate pleasure in reading Shakes
peare, Milton, Browning, Dante and
others was discussed, brought out
GoetheS idea that the rude or unculti-
waited person desires simply to be amused
by reading; the person of more culture,
so that he may feel, the entirely cultivated
THAT he may be led to reflect. In the best
books the thought is not always on the
surface and it requires work TO discover
the meaning of the author. Hence the
necessity of paying more attention to the
meaning and derivation of every word
in piece, some knowledge of the author,
his habits, purposes and environments in
life. Millions Lament over the death
of his friend, Edward King, was taken
for study, with Ruskin's comment there
on.
In comparison with English poetry
it was decided that the genius of our
American poets was equal to that of the
English. English poets have the glory
and traditions of long past on which to
kindle the flame of their genius, and a
host of associations of the present with
the past to fan that flame into fire.
With us it is different; our country Us
new, our associations new, hence the
difficulty for our geniuses has been to find
the true subject for their song. And this
has been done. Not the glories of kings
not the glories of saints or others who rose
TO nre-eminence by divine or fanced right
