TEACHERS ASSOCIATION.
Election of Omcers and Close of the
Session.

The Cumberland County Teachers
Association adjourned Saturday noon
after one Of the most successful and en-
joyable Of all it's annual sessions.
The first business after President Rob-
bins called the meeting to order Saturday
morning was the report of the committee
on election of officers. In accordance
with that report, the following officers
were elected:
President-D. H. Dole, Portland.
Vice President-J. A. futile, Cumber-
land Mills.
Secratary and Treasurer-Miss EllenF.
johnson. Gorham.
Executive Committee-Fred Benson,
of South Windham, Miss Harriet z.
Baker, of Portland, and W. O. Hersey.
The committee on resolutions reported
the usual resolutions thanking those who
had taken part in the meeting and those
who had assisted in Its success.
The first paper of the day dealt with
the subject of preparation for the high
school, and was by Principal Albro
E. Chase, of Portland. In the course OF
his paper, which was especially interest.
ing to teachers he said that the grammar
school is the most important in the whole
sy stem. This school should fit the young
man and woman for entering the
ordinary business of life. The High
School Is the place = for those who havt
opportunities for more extended studies.
The average age Of pupils graduating

criticism was of the same nature
Wouldn't the criticism which these gen
tlemen made, apply more Justly to thu
grammar schools than to the High
school.
The fundamental requirements OF educa
| ton for one who must leave school at ri
early age are to read inteiligently, writ
accurately and speak properly, to under
stand the elements of mathematics, t,
know the geography and the history of hi
own country, and to understand tn
principles Of hygiene and physiology.
But for the higher forms Of bushes
and professional activity, the ability t.
observe accurately, to think correctly
oonssoutively, thoroughly and exhaust
lively, are required to secure success il
life. The ability, to do these things mus
be acquired by the general system o
culture OF the High school.
The discussion was participated in b.
Principal B. P. Snow, Of yarmouth
Academy and Principal Parker. of Cap
Elizabeth High School.
After recess, Mr.. A. B. Morrill,

DANFoRTH IN EXCELLENT SPIRITS
OVER THE PROSPECTS.

NEW YORK. Oct 14.-An important

New York and Chairman Elliott Dan
forth of the Democratic state commit
tee. Executive Committeeman Chairman
Truman and National Committeeman
Frank Campbell was held this afternoon
az the Hotel Bartholdi The object of
the conference is to obtain certain in
formation regarding the condition of af-
fairs in the state and get reliable figures
as to the support which the Democratic
national and local tickets will get.
Chairman Danforth was in excellent
spirits today over the good reports he

state concerning the progress of the
Democratic campaign
Our reports are very favorable, and |
Bryan will carry the state. The more /

This was a quiet morning at Republi-

half a dozen callers. The members of
the executive committee regard the fight
in New York state as over and look upon
McKinley's election as sure. The story
that Bryan money went begging at odds

BATTLESHIP INDIANA.
SHE CAME VERY NEARLY BEING
USED UP BY THE LATE STORM.
Eisht-Inch Turret in the After Bat
terry Becomes Loose. and 1t Was IL
Wonder That the Great Mass OF
Wood ana Iron Was Not Plunged
Overheard ard the Ship Destroyed

NEW YORK, Oct 1.-THE battleship
Indiana, which arrived today along
with the rest of Admiral Bunce's fleet,
was badly used up by the storm which
has ragged so violently at sea during
the past few days, and came near the
end of its career. AT 10 o'clock Monday
night the Indiana set up signals to the
flagship that the eight-inch turret in
the after battery had become loose. She
was plunging about under reduced
steam; the officers burdened with the
dread that the weight Of steel and iron
might at any minute be heaved over
upon and destroy the ship. Sooi. after
the first signal was displayed a second
was set up that the thirteen-inch tur-
ret in the fore part of the ship had also
been ripped from the clamps. 1t was
spinning around and its great gun was
swinging yiciously back and forth as
the vessel plunged.
On Tuesday, after a desperate fight
with the disarranged machinery. the
turrets were fastened with clamps and
hawsers. During all of Monday the
ship made only forty miles. The full
injury to the turrets had not been as
certained tonight.

A MISERABLE FAILURE.

Mine Owners Evidently Have the
Whip Hand and the Men Who
Months Past VIII Find Their
Places Filled By Strangers.

LEADYILLE, Colo, Oct. 14.-Gsv
ernor Mcintyre left for Denver al, mid
night tonight. He said before leaving:
a committee from the mineTs union
asked me if 1 would confer with them,
l stated I would be glad to, and a little
later 1 received a similar request from
the mine managers, andfI gave them
the same answer. 1 metbo sides, but
there is nothing to say relative to the
matters discussed"
It is learned late tonight. however,
from reliable sources, that a PROPOSE
ton from the miners union to declare
off the strike, providing the men were
reinstated, was submitted through the
governor to the mine managers and
was unqualifedly declined.
Nine of the managers claim that the
only condition on which the miners can
go to work is to declare off the strike
and depend upon their own good be-
havior to get back.
The pumping proposition is about ar
ranged, so that the downtown proper
ties will soon start up. The expense is
to be divided among the different
mines, according to their ore produc-
ton.
The mine managers will have about
200 more miners here early next week.
