A TEACHER OF MEN.
4 Young Woman's Unique Position Tn an
 Indiana Law College.

Miss Florence Higgins of Francis vile, Ind, is the first and only woman in the world to occupy the chair of eloeution and rhetoric in law college. The position of instructing lawyers in elocution and rhetoric is one that would hardly be associated with very attract i've young woman even in these days when up to date women are making their way in almost every known ocou- patton.
 Elocution and rhetoric are to the stu dent of law two important branches of

his education and cannot be passed over with seant attention. as they are usual ly by the average college boy The pro- lessor of these branches in law school consequently must have high stand ing and unusual ability before being able to secure the appointment.
 Her success, however, was not sur prise to her intimates, for as a child she was generally regarded as a prodigy. She was born at Francisville, and at the tender age of 6 years she could read tiuently. She early showed a decided talent for dramatic art, and at 10 years, as an impersonator, she was the wonder and admiration of her friends. When only IS, she was a graduate in elooution from the Northern Indiana Normal col lege at Valparaiso. At IA she completed the scientific course of the same college, taking the degree of B. s. She has since studied oratory and dramatic art.
 When only IT, she had completed her studies and accepted the chair of eloeu- tion and rhetoric at the normal college, where her rare qualities and exceptional ability attracted the attention of the management of the law school and se- cured her her present unique position. Apart from her ability as an eloeution. ist, Miss Higgins is also proficient in the arts of music and painting. Detroit Free Press.
