The Edwards County Teachers AS
sociation met last Saturday and was
the most interesting meeting of the

the stand point of interest and num-
bers. Mr.. Seaman's subject, 1.-The
Great Triumvirate of American Pro-
gress, " the church, the school and the
home, was handled in on exceedingly
interesting manner. He showed that
these three institutions when cooperat-
ing with and sustaining each other
have been the three great factors in
American progress and the develop
ment of American institutions.
Mr.. Bailey's paper on mature and
Culture Studies, "showd thorough
appreciation of the subject and a re-
alizatiOn of it's Importance in school
work. All of the papers provoked
much Ointeresting discussion and
brought out many new ideas. Prof.

Fertile Lands of Colorado.

The traveller who visits Colorado for the
fret time is surprised and impressed with
the opportunities the state affords in agri-
cultural pursuits. The mineral wealth Of
the state, with its many famous mines,
seems to have become fixed in the minds Of
strangers, crowding out all knowledge Of
her wonderfully fertile soil. Little thought
is ever given to the IL, 200 miles of irriea-
CATION canals that have been constructed,
and the 2,000, 900 acres of land which have
thus far been made productive. Yet, out
out Of 81 exhibits from Colorado at the
worlds fair. eighty-one special premiums
were awarded, covering all kinds Of fruit
and produce. The wheat exhibit attracted
wide attention, and twenty-five awards
were given it alone, the largest number
received by any one state in the Union.
The fruit industry has reached "a 900, 900 q
year and is yet in its infancy. Sugar beet
culture is a profitable industry. The min
oral wealth Of the state, which leads all
other states in the Union In the output Of
gold and silver, does not compare with her
agricultural wealth. A handsome and pro-
fusely illustrated pamphlet, entitled THE
Fertile Lands Of Colorado has just been
issued by the passenger department of the
Denver & Rio Grande railway, and gives
detailed information of the lands and their
location, and may be had upon application
to S. X. Hooper, general passenger agent,
Denver, or H. M. Gushing, travelling pas

1887 to the naval school at Brest, say
Pail Mall Gazette. AS a youth, he
sailed round the world. He touched
at Athens; touched at the then savage
coasts of New Zealand: made sketches,
a few of which, in days when most OF
his greater work vas done, he used
as material for some of his etchings.
Art even then occupied him, and deep
IL interested as he soon got to be in
1t, he seems to have had a notion that
1t was less dignifed than the profess
sion of the navy, and after awhile he
chose deliberately the less dignifed-
because it was the less digniied. He
would have us believe so, at any rate;
he wished his father to believe 80. And
in 1845, having served creditably and
become a lieutenant, he resigned his
commission. A painter he could not
be. The gods, who had given him,

was, he engraved some verses of his

For Signals In London.

In meeting the necessities created
by the dense and continuous fogs oil
London the various companies engag-
ed in furnishing the small but impor'
tant fog signals are an active feature.
In exigent weather conditions, even
the smaller OF the various companies
running through the great city's sub
urbs have sometimes to issue a hun.
bred gross a day of these signals, while
larger ones use double that number.
This device is extremely simple, con-
sisting of a pinch Of gunpowder and
three percussion caps inclosed in three
small metal cases, one within the
other, and each closed up with white
lead, while in the innermost case are
three nipples, on which the percus-
sion caps are fitted, the powder being
placed around them. The complete
thing is about the size of a large watch
and has appended to it two strips OF
lead which are simply bent around
the flange of the rail, thus holding the
fog signal in position on the top. AS
these little machines are substitutes
for semaphores and lamps, it is. OF
course, a matter of utmost Importance
that they shall not fail. 1t is for this
reason that there are three per-
cussion caps and three cases, one in
side the other, SO as to exclude the
