ISOLATION last evening was an eloquent
address by President James H. Garfield.
of Ohio state university at Columbus.

system of education, unifying the course
of study, more expert knowledge on the
part of teachers. better super.ntendency,
and above all the right kind of teach
ers. At yesterday mornings session the
subject discussed was What can the
school do to improve community Iife?''

Norris said he would have 6 Ii. or salt

would rather the prizes were ashore
than he would give Ii. the hogshead;
upon which Captain Norris said he was
a rascal that wished his prizes ashore.
The other replied he was rascal, if he
called him SO, and then Captain Norris
struck Captain Ley and threw him over

as he and / were in my cabin, ran out
and upon inquiry found he Norris) had
hurt Captain Ley, and by the admiral's

Savannah. Ga. Dec. 29.-Rev. Sam
Small, the evangelist. is now chaplain
of the, Third engineers, L. s. A. He
arrived here yesterday. and one of the
first things he did was TO give out an
interview. Among other things he said: :
THE chaplains are a sort of sop to the
church sentiment without much sub
stance to them. They just take a min
lister and put a uniform on him with
a silver cross on the shoulder, pay him
$500 month and turn him loose on 1,2e2
men without any of the implements of
the spiritual warfare to fight with. I've
been disappointed.

gest that they do away with the chap
lains. / suppose there may be a howl,
but it is-better to raise the issue and
have the whole system revised. When
we get down to Cuba III wager most of
the men would rather go to cock fight
or a bull ring than attend services. To
tell the truth, / am beginning to think
there is a heap of balderdash about
what the chaplains do accomplish out
side of meeting the sentiment that calls
for their presence with every body of
troors''

Diamandi, native of Pylaros. one of

culator. After a mere glance at a black.
board ON which 80 groups of figures are
written he can repeat them in any order
and deal with them by any arithmetical
process. 1t is said that he never makes
an error IN calculations involving bill
lions. and he can extract square or cube
roots with marvellous rapidity and ac-
curacy. An eminent German specialist
declared the other day that all these
ready reckoners were idiots. This is not
