"CHILD STUDY"
Interesting Discussion by the Teachers of the Public SchooIs-The Spiritual Feature
 Dwet Upon,

The teachers of the public schools held an interesting session of the city instl- tute at the high school building on yes terday. The general topic under discus sion was "Child Study" The subject was opened by Professor Moore of the high school who was followed by Pro- fessors Roof and Cunningham, Misses Carrie Jerngan. Norma Brown, Mary Hewlett Jessie Ruter, Amy Braun, Ro- chelle Williams, Rose Lewis, Gertrude Muslin Several of the teachers present. ed carefully prepared individual charac- terlzations of pupils, giving a close an- alyses of children are anonymous and are cullarities and indicating methods of treatment through instruction and dis cipline determined by the temperament and disposition of the child. These an alysis of children are anonymous and are calculated to aid teachers and parents in the right direction and development of the native powers of the child.
 Dr. Phillips cautioned the teachers against adhering to the cold, scientific treatment of the child and disregarding the more subtle and evasive spiritual elements, which are less easily grasped and comprehended by the teacher, and which cannot be formulated and tabu- lated by science. The spiritual element in the child is as potent as the physical and mental and must ever be regarded as an essential, though often an un- known factor in the processes of educa- tion
 The salaries of the teachers for the past month, amounting to $37OO, were paid by Major Cameron, treasurer of the board of education.

Birmingham Can Secure the Encampment of
 the Second Regiment.

lne oeCOhu heSlihelt Lieut.. Samuel G. Jones and wife of Montgomery were in the city yesterday and were the guests of the family of Maj. E. l.. Higdon.
 In conversation with Major Higdon as to the import of the visit a State Herald reporter was informed that movement is on foot to have the encampment of the Second regiment held at East Lake.
 If the citizens of Birmingham will con- tribute $1000,'" Major Higdon remarked, '1 am satisfied we can secure the en- campment. You see it takes some money to fix up for these encampments. It will take $500 to prepare for even the neces- sary accommoda tions, and the city is only asked to contribute two-thirds of that amount. The drill grounds will have to be graded, and mess hall, kitchens, store room, tent floors and guard house built, and flag poles erected and the work cannot be done for less than the amount estimated. Birmingham must bestr her self, and she always does when thing must be done, for the city cannot afford to lose the encampment; the boys spend too much money with us in the first place. and Birmingham is naturally headquar- ters for almost all gatherings, and espe- cially military, for she boasts the largest soldiery in the state.
 Lieutenant Jones was highly pleased with the grounds and seemed to think it a matter of fact that the Second regiment encampment would be held here; but of course Birmingham will have to do her part"

At odds-on today he made the pace for Six furlongs and then did not finish one two, three-platers like Masonic Home, Joc-O-Sot and Lillte Billy beating him out. This performance ,occasioned a lot of unfavorable comment. David, by HilPs good riding, beat Hi Henry in the fourth race by a nose. The latter was the best horse, but was poorly ridden by McGlone. Little Tom was backed against the field to land one, two, three. Rayiola beat La Belle France by nose, but it was again a jockeys victory, as the latter was much the best of the two at the end.

COOPERATION COMMITTEE Six of One and Half a Dozen of
 the Other. POPS AND RADS IN COUNCIL Decide to Relegate the Fusion Issue to Com mittee Equally Representing the Two
 Parties-Another Meeting.
OPS AND RADS IN COUNCIL

They will not unlikely do it again.
 They fussed and fumed over fusion and anti-fusion amid large and wide confu- sion But they will probably experiment with the so-called cooperation idea.
 The conference of Jefferson county populists and republicans yesterday at Erswells hall was an animated affair. The populist meeting was called to order by Jere Fountain and Reuben F. Kolb, Jr., was elected chairman and J. H. F, Moseley secretary.
 A motion was made by Capt. R. F. Kolb that committee of seven on resolutions be appointed by the chairman, to which all resolutions should be referred.
 After considerable discussion pro and con, Dr. M. c. Ragsdale offered the fol- lowing as a substitute:
 That a committee of twelve, composed of six populites and six republicans, be appointed by the chairman, whose duty it shall be, if possible, to agree as to the division of offices on the cooperative plan, and that all resolutions be referred to said committee.
 That the populist and republican com mittees meet afterwards to ratify or re- ject the plan proposed.
 Dr. Ragsdale's substitute was adopted by vote of B yeas, nays 29.
 The chairman appointed on the com mittee the 1OllOWlnS Hdiileu SchticiiiSii leach alternate name after that of capt. R. r. Kolb is a republican,:
 R. F. Kolb, chairman; Lewis E. Par sons. T. A. Mclaughlin, J. A. w. Smlth' Robert Chisholm, w. H. Mothershed, pr. M. c. Ragsdale, John R. Mccoy. Allen Stewart, A. J. Brown, z. T. Carwile. J. G. Crews.
 Captain Kolb then offered the follow ing resolution whoch was passed:
 ..That the conference adjourn untll sat urday, the 14th day of March, and that the committee of twelve be instructed to prepare their report and present the same to the conference on that day. After the meeting adjourned Jere Fountain asked that the populists pres ent remain in the hall. All walked out but a few, when Professor Burress was called to the chair.
 A resolution was offered by MT. Foun- tain against cooperation with the repub- licans, but the opposition was so strong that he withheld his motion, and the meeting adjourned transacting any fur ther business.
 Mr. Fountain called at the State Her. a1d office after the meeting and insisted that fusion did not win. Kolb and the republicans, he said, came in to carry fusion, but failed. Kolb's motion to ap- point committee to retire and report at once could never have carried.
 Dr. Ragsdale les motion did prevail. Flu sion Cor going into the ranks of the re- publicans in wholesale manneD was lost
