Charles p. Drummond addre ssed
a large and attentive audience at the
Methodist church Wednesday evening
on the "RelatlOn of Teachers to Good
Citizenship" Mr.. DrummOnd has
never been a school teacher but judging
from his expressions regarding the duty
of the teacher to the Int lie boys and
girls, it is evident that he has feeling
aud sympathy sufficient to divide up
among the Marshall county teachers
abundaDtly and then have some left.
Never having been school teacher,
he was of the opinion that be would
not resort to the customary rigid rules
for discipline that he would talk to
the boys, inspire ambition and place
them on their honor. This is good
theory but those who have taught
school land the writer is one that has
had experienced do not believe that it
can III very many Instances be relied
upon in practice. However, it was
good theory and ideals are what are
generally expected of lecturers as well
as institute instructors
Mr.. DrummOnd is not of the opinion
that the best educated man or woman
is always the best teacher, and he is
right. The teacher must know hearts
as well as books. She must tell the
child that he will be a power when he
becomes man She must cause him
to believe that he can achieve great
things, and he will achieve them. AS
man thinketh, so a man is She
must inspire self confidence, self re-
lance, for these are the foundations of
character. These teachings should
come from the mother and father as
well as the teacher. Boys must have
high ideals. Napoleon was ambitious
to be a Hannibal; Grant was wont to
be Napoleon; Dewey sspired to be
Farragut. All great men have had
high ideals. 1t is the duty, thought the
speaker, that the teacher should awaken
such ambitions in the pupils in their
charge
Mr.. Drummond does not believe in
putting children in straight jackets to
keep them out of mischief. His ideas
on discipline found a discordant echo
among some of the old timers. How
ever, Mr.. DrummOnd did not expect
his lecture TO settle once for all this
matter upon which educators have
been at variance for decades Like
great deal of orthodoxy that comes as
rule from institute instructors and
lecturers, proper amount of saltz is to
be swallowed with it.
Mr.. DrummOnd closed his lecture by
making strong appeal TO the teachers
to advocate the circulating library
question. He believed in law to this
effect and it should be sustained at
public expense.
The lecture was interesting through
out, the ideas being clothed in choice
rhetoric that held an unrivaled atten-
tim

LYNCHED A NEGRO.
Officers Refused to Give Prisoner Up,
 But He Was Riddled.

Texarkana, Ark, December 17.-About a year ago negro woman was criminally assaulted by a negro in this county. Newt Gaines was suspected, and the officers have kept.a quiet lookout for him. Yesterday Deputy Sheriff Ed Lynch, of New Boston, heard that Gaines was in DeKalb, and wired Constable Simonton to arrest him. Today Lynch went after him, and, taking him to jail, went to the depot to return Gaines to the jail at New Boston. While Lynch and Simonton were at the railroad station mob of 100 men, composed of farmers from Red River valley, rode into DeKalb and demanded the prisoner, charg ing him with raping a white woman two days before. The officers refused to de- liver the prisoner. Lynch, who is noted for his fearlessness, drew gun and showed fight. The mob then surrounded the sta- ton and began fusilade through the win dows Gaines body was riddled with bull lets. The officers threw themselves upon the floor and thus saved their own lives. The mob then disappeared.

THE WEATHER.
Storm Developing in the West Gulf
 Rain for Alabama.

Washington, December 17.-Alabama: Threatening weather and rain; light to fresh east winds.
 General forecast: A storm is developing in the west gulf and has caused rain in the gulf, middle and South Atlantic states. A slight movement of the high pressure area upon the land has caused temporary clearing in the middle and South Atlantic states, but it is understood that this high pressure will be dissipated and will be fol- lowed by increasing cloudiness Sunday af- ternoon with prospects of rain, the South Atlantic states and Monday morning in the middle Atlantic states. The storm last night in Manitoba has moved to Ontario. The pressure continued high from the Mississippi valley to the Pacific coast ex- cept a slight depression in southern Texas.
