Teachers County Institute.

The Teachers County Institute
held last July at Panaca met with
such favor and opened the way for
so much future good to the teachers
aud school children generally, thnt
il was decided to have a similar
o ,hering each year at least hereafter,
nee teachers, and othersin Lincoln
County, interested in educational
matters cannot attend the State In
stitutes, which are always held in
the northern and western part of the
state.
The committee appointed at the
Panaca July Institute to arranged a
program for the January gathering
met last Friday and assigned sub
iects to about thirty participants.
The Institute will be held at Pio-
che for three days following the
Teachers examination al will eccu-
DIV the l4th. 18th. and 18th. d ,ys of
the month.
County Superintendent McNamee
purposes to insist on all attending
who reside will in reasonable dis
tance of the county seat. Efforts will
be made to secure reduced fares and
hotel Accommodations to attendants, if
the gathering promises to be at all
large.
The school law provides that "All
teachers shall be required to attend
and participate in the proceedings OF
the Institute held in the section of
the State wherein they may be en-
gagged in teaching, and without loss
of salary for the time thus employ
ed"
Under this provision it is proposed
to take weeks vacation, or such
time short of that as may be neces-
sary, in those schools from which
teachers attend the Institute, and
while some objections may be heard
from parents it must be remembered
that the benefits to follow, in gener
al, are expected to compensate foi
the outlay.
We hope the Institute will be 1
complete success and that the towr
people will do all in their power tC
make it so.

The Shadow Filibuster
BY WALTER L. HAwLEY.

full of dagoes-Cubans, mean-3O OF
them all told, and we were filibusters.
1T was the first year of the Cuban rev.
olutioa. The Rover had been running
light for a month, picking up tow here
and there, and failing to make expenses.
She was strong boat, and could do IL
knots an hour under pressure. Dan
Breen was captain, pilot and part
owner.
"One day the captain received an offer
from the Cuban agents to take cargo
of guns and ammunition to the insur-
gents. There was big money in it for
all hands provided we landed the stuff
and got away safe. The other owners
left the matter to Breen, and the cap
tain called the crew into the cabin and
asked them if they would go. There
was double pay and a share OF the prof.
it's for every man of us. and we all vol
unteered at once.
"Next day the Rover cleared for
southern port to bring back tow, and
we got out beyond Sandy Hook with
out being followed by a revenue cutter
When night came we stood in toward
the Long Island shore, and about mid
night ran alongside a schooner an

TRANSPORTING LIVE FISH,
How They Are Delivered without
Injury at Inland Towns In
Denmark.

A new method of transportation for
live fish from seaports into the interior
has just been patented by Danish fish
dealer, p. IL. Lohman, OF Copenhagen,
and the system is so simple and yet so
perfect that one wonders why it has
never been thought OF before. The in
yentor, says the Philadelphia Record,
had number of large bags MADE of
waterproof material, strong oiicloth ap-
pearing to give the best results. These
bags, after being filed with water and
the fish to be sent inland, are laced at
the top and either suspended IN the
cars from hooks n the roof Of the ear,
or from fold Hg frames taking almost
no space and allowing the close hanging
of these bags 50 that there is but ittle
movement bc!ween the bags. They
may also oe set upright alongside each
other, but suspension has been found
to be preferable, particularly for long
distances. Several transports of fish
made over long distances have shown
the splendid features OF the new sys-
tenn, for the fish arrived in excellent
condition after l6-hour ride.
