cations arising out of childbirth.
On the Charlotte Road.
The rock crushing plant, out on the
Charlotte road, has been in operation for
about two weeks, and during that time
something like quarter of a mile of
macadam has been put down.
The Cotton Market.
The future market gained Is points on
Thursday, and up to the hour The En-
oU1RER went to press had not declined
again. The best price paid ON the York
Vile market yesterday was 81.
MIR. Thompson's Pet Acre.
Mr.. E. D. Thompson, of Point, was in
Yorkville on Monday. He reports that
up to date he had gotten off his pet acre of
cotton, three bales of lint and 500 pounds
of seed cotton. There is still good deal
of cotton on the acre that is yet to be
picked.
New Celery.
Mr.. C. H. Smith, the well-known celery
expert, is on the market with his new
crop. He left bunch at The ENQUIRER
office on Thursday. Of full size, perfect
ly bleached, crisp, and of delightful flavor,
this specimen reaches degree Of excel
lence that is well nigh perfection.
Cotton Fire at Fort Mill.
Charlotte Observer, Wednesday: There
was a bright blaze at Fort MILL S. c.,
Yesterday at 1890. One hundred and for
ty-eight bales Of cotton, stored in the
field near the Fort Mill Manufacturing
company's mill, and belonging to the
mill, was fired, it is supposed, by small
boy and cigarette. About 40 bales were
damaged. Seventy-five bales were in
sured.
Painfully Hurt.
Mr.. James Conley met with an accident
on Main street, nearly opposite THE En-
QUIRER office, on Thursday morning,
which came near costing him his life.
He was driving a wagon loaded with
three bales of cotton. In some way the
lines were jerked out Of his hands, and
in trying to recover them, he fell to the
ground. The wagon passed over his legs
about the hips, bruising him feariully
but, fortunately, breaking no bones.
Colonel Jasper Stowe Stricken.
Gastonia Gazette, Thursday: Colonel
Jasper Stowe, Of Belmont, was stricken
with paralysis last Saturday afternoon.
The right side, arm and leg are affected.
The attending physician, so the Charlotte
News learns, does not think the illness
will necessarily prove fatal. Colonel
Stowe is well advanced beyond three
score and ten in years, and all over the
county has friends and acquaintapces who
will hear with regret of his affliction.
At latest reports he was much better
able to be about.
Seen the .. X. s. c. Railroad.
A telephone message from Rock Hill,
yesterday, said that Detective Newbold
was seen during the morning on the o.
r. Il c. railroad, about four miles below
Rock Hill, going in the direction Of Ca
tawba Junction. AS to what his inten-
tions were, of course, was purely matter
of speculation. One theory was to the
effect that he was trying to make lis way
to Columbia for the purpose of surren-
dering to the governor, and another was
that he proposed to board the e., e. Il y.
train going north.

MEMBERs OF THE BOARDS
Discuss Ways for Making Their
Children BETTER.

The associated school boards wound
up their affairs for this year yesterday
afternoon at their meeting in the
Central high school building. Several
bills were referred to the executive
committee The section Endorsed
"School Education" The following are
the officers who will direct the affairs
of the section for the coming year:
President, B. Zimmerman; vice presi-
dent, Mrs. l.. j. Spooner; treasurer,
S. A. Lamgum, and secretary, Luther
Jaeger.
Mrs. Jennie c. Crays, of the legisla-
ton committee, presented her report.
which recommended a number Of re-
forms The report was received and
placed on file The first clause favored
the establishment Of schools for the
deaf, in connection with the regular
day schools, in places where there was
demand for them. The second clause
recommended compulsory education.
The last part of Miss Crays' report
reads as follows: Resolved, That the
school boards Of the state. in conjunc
ton with the educators, interest them
selves in seeing that our present laws
regarding the sale of cigarettes to
minors be more rigidly enforced"
"The Pupils Environment" was the
subject Of two papers, one read by
Mrs Ward Stone, and the other by
Mrs. L. C. Spooner, Of the Morris board.
Both papers were in favor Of max
ing the school life of the scholar more
pleasant, as environment had much
to do with the moulding Of their char
acters Their home life, often, was not
pleasant, and it was thought, by max
ing the school room as cheerful as
possible it did much to assist children
of bad parentage to becoming good
men and women.

superintendent The teaching as
profession was apt to narrow one, and
principals should seek to become es-
tablished in the community in which
they were working, mingle in civic af-
fairs. as in so doing they were bene-
fitting themselves by the change Of
scene, and become better acquainted
with the constituents of the school. To
make successful principal, sturdiness
was required, and also a willingness to
assume the responsibility Of much of
the work of the school. Mr.. Rankin
said where he came to a small town
where a principal was having hard
time to get along he made 1t point to
assist the principal In every way he
could. Principals should not let the
work Of their teachers fall below the
standard. They should always main
tain high standard Of teaching. and
If the teacher was not doing well, the
principal should lend assistance. If it
was a very Sad case, the principal
should ask for the resignation Of the
teacher. He did not believe in keeping
teachers who were not competent. He
knew of several cases where teachers
had been wholly incompetent, and held
their positions through political inf1u-
ence. This was not frequent, however.
and taken all through the teachers OF
Minnesota came well up to the stand
ard. In closing Mr.. Rankin said: Il
want to thank the graded school super
intendents for the uniform courtesy
with which you have treated me. 1t
has been a somewhat difficult task for
me to discharge the duties Of my office
without appearing to NEEDLE in school
matters, but assure you that you have
my hearty cooperation in your efforts
to maintain the standard Of your
schools"
Mr.. Rankin was warmly applauded
for his address, which bespoke the es-
TEEN with which he was held by the
delegates from the graded schools Of
the state.
George E. Butler, of Bird Island, gave
a paper on Preference Books in United
States Histor-," which was discussed
by F. o. King, of Park Rapids, and A.
H. Porter. of Frazee, after which the
section adjourned until next year

TEACHERS OF MUSIC
Held Their Final Session Yesterday
Afternoon.

The music section held their last
meeting and elected officers yesterday
afternoon in the assembly hall of the
high school. The following officers
were elected for the year: President,
Miss E. A. Granting; vice president,
Miss NJ. Deems, Mankato, and secreta-
ry and treasurer, Blanche Hand, Will
mar.
Prof. William L. Tomlins opened the
programme with an address. Miss
Hattie e. Rudy read a paper on 'The
Monotones." She thought it was the
duty of teachers to give children. who
were deficient in music, patient in
struction as well as in any Of the other
studies. Miss Rudy. in her paper, set
forth clearly that in instructing chill
dren in music she had found that 1t
required patience on the part Of the
teacher more than in giving any other
study. With a little encouragement
children, who were supposed at home
to have no musical talent. were able to
carry a tune, and often became good
singers.
aid in Sight Reading" was the sub
ject of paper read by Miss M. M.
Salisbury, supervisor of the Rochester
public schools. She called attention
to the short time which music had
held place in the curriculum Of the
puDnC SchOOlS, ana -lne Importance the
study now held in the schools. She
said children were often able to sing
a song perfectly with the do, re. mi
syllables, but when they tried the
words of the song they seemed to lose
sight of the notes, or how to associate
the words with the notes. She thought
the charts which were now in use
were the best aids in learning the
scale and to readily read notes.
Miss Salisbury's paper was illustrat-
ed in a way by the pupils of a second
grade class from the John Ericsson
school, who were put through an exer-
else of note reading and note songs.
under the direction of Miss Julia Grit
fin.
The programme was closed with a
paper by Miss E. A. Gambling Of
Saltwater on Relation Of the Super
visor and the Regular Teacher" She
thought the first essential for the sue
cess of a class in singing was an en-
thusiastic supervisor, in which
case the teacher would re-
ceive some of the enthusiasm Of the
supervisor, and she in turn would diff
fuse some of the same spirit among
the pupils. There should always be
sympathy between the supervisor and
the teacher, and the recitations should
take place at the same time every day,
as the children, as a rule. looked for
ward TO their music lesson.
