THE RIGHT TO USE AWNINGS.

Middletown, March 12.--The first step
in determining the power of the city to
order the taking down Of awnings that
extend across the sidewalks on Main
street was taken this morning, when in
the city court Dennis A. Clark, a vel
known shoe dealer. was fined $40 and
costs for violation Of city ordinance
in failing to take down his awning
lie appealed. His defence is that the
city had not the right TO pass the ordi-
nance, as the awnings had been in po-
sition for thirty-five years or more
This is a test case.

MAKING UP HIS MIND
Which way duty lay-whether to cast
his fortune with his kindred Of the south
or remain loyal to the government to
which he owed his education as a sol-
der. He was prayerful, upright man,
who doubtless acted upon his honest
convictions Of right, unbiased by self
interest. At any rate, he snatched from
that niggard, Time, an immortal fame,
though he died in poverty, self-exiled
from his once beautiful home. His de-
scendants mourn for their beloved AR
lington, and like Rachel mourning for
her children, refuse to be comforted:
but it is to be hoped that when they
come here to visit the graves of their
ancestors and to bewail the grandeur
which once was theirs, they will also
remember the more than $4,000 homes,
and the many times $4,000 hearts made
desolate by the death Of the men who
now occupy the estate.

Psychologist THOUGHTS
DIR. BROWNS ADDRESS UPON TIE
LATER THEORIES.
The Lecturer From California Un;vel-
sity Talks to Selected Teachers Be
fore School Meets.

DIR. Brown addressed few of the
teachers this morning at S:15 Il. m.
He had pointed out previously that
the later educational theories were
based not solely on a psychology, out
on sociology; they concern them
selves not merely with the interests.
states and tendencies of the child, but
with the child as IA part of Il whoie
church, state, family. This social
view of education leads us to regard
as of great Importance that part of
psychology that has to do with he
outgrowing activities.
Psychological thought of the pres
emf time does not concern itself with
units which are merely units of lnowl-
edge received: it concerns itself with
sided reception carried out into ac-
ton is the complete unit 1t Seems
to be a law of the universe that i'm
preston completes itself in express
sion.
Ribot in his psychology says every
intellectual state is accompanied by
a definite physical manifestation:
thought is not an event taking place
in purely supersensual, ETHEREAL, in
accessible world.
The lecturer quoted also from
Raderstock's Habit and Its Import
ance on Education. 1t is impossible tC
