WINNEMUCCA. April e.
There was a large attendance at the
third days session of the State Teachers
After the usual opening exer-
cises Professor Winfrey of this place con-
Quoted a class exercise on Percentage.
Blackboard exercise was a feature, after
which a discussion followed participated
in by Professors Howe, Bray and
Leonard.
Mrs. Doten of Reno presented an able
paper IN the "Study of Literature" in
lower grades. A discussion on the sub
ject followed, in which DIR. Winship,
Miss Schallenberger and Professor Kaye
took part. Mrs. Doten's paper and the
discussion of the subject presented were
very instructive as well as interesting.
Dr.. Winship addressed the Institute on
"Leadership.' He urged that the latent
talent in boys and girls for leadership
should be encouraged in various direc-
tons and when a pupil showed an
especial disposition to lead in any par
ticular branch, it was we'll to give en-
enlargement and confidence would man
ifest itself which would aid in accom-
plishing the results hoped for.
Miss Howe gave a recitation in fine
form and the manner it was received
showed the high appreciation.
Professor Gayhart of Austin presented
a splendid paper on school Attain
ment.'
Miss Howe followed with a good paper
on "Elocution." The young lady being
an expert in this art, she was accorded
the closest attention and she gave many
valuable hints to the teachers in this
branch.
Miss Schallenberger spoke on "George's
Junior Republic" She explained how
the waits of New York sustained a self
government. Her address was some
thing new and very entertaining. DR..
Winship closed the day program in a
talk urging that teachers should be help
els and leaders.
President Stubbs of the University
lectured in the evening before a large
audience on Faust" The doctor handled
his subject in a manner that convinced
all that he was thorough" posted on this
character of the national and populat
poetry Of Germany. The lecture was
very entertaining and highly appre-
ciated.

Can't Get Registered

John Wilson, of the APPEAL office.
made another attempt to register yester-
day. He rendered his s. to Register
Stone for this years poll tax. but could
not get on the roll as the law says that
the person who desires to register shall
pay ST if he has not paid his poll tax for
w years. The Register refused to put
him on the roll and called his attention
to the law.
He has rendered the Register Sc and s.,
but the law is a sort of double back action
affair that is simply imperative. 1t was
passed for any purpose beyond
mischief making, and the APPEAL will
take the case to the Supreme Court at
once where a writ of mandate will be
asked for. William Woodburn prepared
the papers yesterday and the case will be
pressed by him to a conclusion as Don
as possible.

Searching Washoe Lake.

The parties who are searching Washoe
Lake for the body of Fred Mather are
still unsuccessful. A Virginia City diver
has made an offer to find the body, and a
Carson City medium says she can locate
it. Meanwhile it has been decided to
make q systematic search for the body.
Fifty feet of steel cable has been
secured from the railroad shops and at
tached to this will be additional weights
while every o o there will be twelve
inches of line attached to which are three
fish hooks tied to gether. This will be
dragged over all that portion of the lake
where the accident occurred. Stakes
will be driven after each trip and the
whole thing managed systematically.
Meanwhile the mother is so Frustrated

Willy Captain Sam Jack.

The Piute mind is slowly but surely
absorbing of the methods of the
psle-face, and probably for the same in
scrutable reason that the first words ac-
CURED in learning the English tongue by
foreigners are those of profanity. the
willy traits of the white man are the first
adopted by his dusky brethren.
The truth of this statement was for
chilly illustrated yesterday in the adroit
tactics adopted by Captain Sam Jack in
getting a free puff for the Indian fam
dango, prefaced by a patriotic declaration
of the loyalty of the Piutes to the flag
and their desire to tumble over each
other in their haste to fight the Spaniards
