THE LIGHT THAT CAME.
The Dull BOY who Developed Into
Great mathematical Professor.


Great Mathematical Professor.
From the Indianapolis Qnd) Sentinel
David M Geeting, Indianas state SUI
perintendent of public instruction, says
that he has positive proof that II is never
a hopeless task to attempt to instruct the
dullest mind.
Years ago. when he was a teacher one
of his pupils, Mr.. Geeting recalls. was a
young fellow who was by all odds the
dullest boy whom he had ever attempted
to instruct. He was especially duh in
mathematics, and had not the slightest
trace of mathematical ability in his ma.
ture. After months and months endeav-
oring TO teach him the principles of the
science Mr.. Geeting was on the point OF
giving up in despair. one day the class
to which the dun boy belonged was given
some original problem work to do in geom-
etry. The problem was placed on the
blackboard. 1t was a puzzler. Suddenly
the dun boy, his face Illuminated with al
most a supernatural radiance, exclaimed:
1--WE got it."
Prof. GectinG says that he knew in
minute from the look on the boys face
that he did have the answer.
Il know you've got it all right" he
said, although l haven't heard your dem

tested against hearing the duh boys an

we know we can get it," they said, and
pleaded that the matter might be laid
over until the next day. On the follow
ing day. just as Mr. Geeting had felt In
his shoes. the Jun boy had the answer
and no one else in the class did.
From that day a wonderful transfor-
nation was worked i'm that boys mind"
says Mr.. Geeting. "He was no longer the
most Flooding, slowest, dullest boy I'm the
class. The science Of mathematics unfold
ed to his mind like a revelation. He rap
idly developed the most remarkable math-
ematical genius with which / have ever
come into contact His mind became lu-
minous.
You ask me what has become of him.
Wei. that dun boy is to-day the profess
sor of mathematics in one of the leading
educational institutions in The United
states He is recognized as one of the
most eminent authorities on mathematical
science in the country, and If 1 We're to
mention his name you would at once rec
ornize IL. He often tells me that he believes
that one of the secrets of his success in
teaching is the fact that he takes infinite
pains with his pupils, because he recog-
nizes that not one Of them could ever be

Port Antonio, jam, June 20, 3 p. H.
Capt. Hopkins of the Boston Fruit Com
pany's steamer Brookline, which arrived
at Port Morant this morning, reports that
he sighted transports conveyed by United
States warships 50 miles south of Crooked
Island passage yesterday morning. He was
due north of Cape Maysi.
Capt. Hopkins reports also that he was
chased by the United States gunboat Hell
ena.
The transports, he says, were headed
southeast, and in his judgment for Porto
Rico. He argues that if they were bound
around Cape Maysi for Santiago they were
far off their course.
1t Is believed here that Capt. Hopkins Is
mistaken and that the transports were
simply keeping clear Of sight of land.
