The Pedasogue in his musings md
readings has come to the conclusion
that the profession OF teaching IL pro-
fession It may be called. requires an
amount OF talent and also of labor that
should bring n greater reward than 1t
does In dollars and cents. The fact Is
that teachers are very poorly paid. The
amount OF talent required to make n
successful teacher will take at least 100
per cent more money than in other pro-
fession. Why Is this? Is It because the
public does not appreciate the work OF
the teacher? We leave this for others to
answer. THE PEDAGOGIrE.

All persons ava!ling themselves OF the

Cheap excursions will run from Los

Tickets will be good until September /.
Quite n number of Wheeling teachers

state OF California, are awake to the
importance OF tho meeting and tho
honor conferred upon them In having
the meeting IN their midst. They prom

SCHOOL MELANGE.

To say that DR.. Rnymond's last lee
ture was the best of the entire course Is
only saying what all who were present
and who had attended the entire course,
thought after he closed his lecture on
Saturday night In saying this the wrI-
one OF the other lectures. Perhaps It Is
the character tre1 ted OF that makes the
lecture better. The doctor has his course
OF lectures wisely arranged as the in
tcrest either In the characters presented
or In the lectures themselves increases
from the first to the last. 1t Is said
that the people of Wheeling are not n
lecture going people. This mag be true
in sense. but the attendance from first
to last in the course delivered by DR..
Raymond proves to the contrary. The
doctor Is alive to the interest of the en-
tire people and especially to that of
those who must earn their bread by toll
either OF the hand or the head. 1t Is q
grea. step forward in the worlds pro-
gress when our higher institutions of
learning are taking such an interest IL

ago. the world would be much In adj
vance of what 1t Is to-day. Educate the
masses and rulers will soon learn TO do
justice and this earth will be much
better place In which to live than it
now Is. The brotherhood OF man should
be taught and also pract!ced by those
who teach L.. The cry Am I my
brothers keeper" has come ringing
down the ages from the time the first
murderer uttered It in the attemp. to
cover up his crime. and the answer Is
Yes. ! am my brothers. keeper" Es-
pecial!y can this be said OF those who
are in a position to help their fellows
who from any cause whatever are

are among those who are to assist their
fellows. While this Is really the duty
OF ali. 1t Is In special way the duty Of
the teacher: 1t belongs to his work.
Some one has said that three of the

To protect the weak. .. To preserve the
innocent. 3. To reclaim the vicious.
Can there be higher, nobler aims than
these?

Didn't Know His own Song.

A writer in Bird Lore says: Several
years ago, when in western town, l
was taken to neighbor's to see his
birds. Four cages swung in the shelter
of commodious porch. One contained
red winged blackbird that had been taken
from its nest when very young and
brought up by hand. His associates
were canary, q bluejay and an oriole.
The canary had been purchssed.at-a bird
store and had there learned its song. The
bluejay and oriole had been taken from
neighboring nests and had doubt pick
ed up the characteristic notes of their
species from the many other members Of
their kind that inhabited the vicinity, but
it was mHny miles to the nearest swamp
or lowland where one might find a red
winged blackbiM. This red wing had
learned perfectly the notes Of his Gagged
companions and had picked up some
notes of other birds in the neighborhood.
but not one note of the red winged black
bird did he know"

Borofsky bad done well-indeed he
could scarcely have managed better.
Nevertheless the whole Of the story

This picture of father was not like

could not help feeling, though I said
nothing Of it to mother. that If Borof-

his behavior, then my poor father must
certainly be irresponsible, for the pres.

senses.

These were questions which I could
not answer, for they were the very ones
that were vexing my own soul as well
as hers.
"We shall know all. mother, In Gods

The Little Japanese and Her Hair.

Inc Auae S0YAnebo 1uO nef HAIL.
The Japanese women's hair Is twisted
and coiled into elaborate and fantastic
patterns which few eastern hairdressers
could initiate or equal.
The hairpins used are not so much
for confuing the locks in their places as
for actual adornment and are very fash
ionable. They are of enormous size, sew
en- or eight inches in length and half an
inch wide and are made Of various SUBJ
stances, tortoise shell, carved wood and
ivory, many Of them being composed Of
carved figures adroitly pivoted so as to
appear to dance at every breath drawn
by the wearer. E,,-
Others are made of glass and are hol-
low and nearly filed with some bright
colored liquid, 80 that at every move
ment of the head an air bubble runs
from one end of the pin to the other,
producing a most curious effect in
strong light.
Sometimes an extra fashionable wo-
man will wear dozen or more of these
pins in her hair, so that at a little dis
lance her head looks as if bundle Of
frewood had been closely stuck into it.

The Steele, one of the leading Drey-

accuses Of being bogus count. 1t has
announced its intention of soon pub

Count Boni de Castellane on account
of the Dreyfus case. In his reply to
Castellane's challenge the Prince of
Monaco openly gives rs his reason for
the declination the fact that Castel-

He says that he has reason to be-
lieve that Castellane has assumed the
title of count when he Is not entitled
to 1t. Monaco says that under the cir
cumstances the challenge from Castel-

titled to notice.
The challenge grew out Of the active
sympathy for Dreyfus and Nine. Drey-

kidnapped little Gerald Lapiner, was
yesterday taken to Joliet prison to
serve an indeterminate sentence. She

were placed upon the woman, but she
twisted one hand free, struck Jailer
Whitman in the face and tore her
clothes half off. When the Jail Office
was reached the aged kidnapper threw
herself on the floor, tore handfuls of
hair from her head, screaming and
kicking with frantic energy at the jail
er and his assistants. She was finally
carried out bodily and held by main
force on the ride to the depot.

CAPTAIN WATKINS. ERROR


Admits responsibility For the Paris
wreck-Two Years. suspsusion. ~
New York. July 1.-THE report Of
Captain Watkins Of the stranding Of
the American line steamship Paris was
made public yesterday by the local
board of steamboat inspectors Cap
tain Watkins make NO attempt to eyade
responsibility for the accident, but says
frankly that the stranding of the ship
was the result Of an unaccountabie
error on his part. The accident, he
says, was not due to any want OF
thought or anxiety about his vessel,
but resulted from mistake he made
in calculating the position Of the ship.
The local inspectors of steam vessels
have suspended Captain Watkins H.
cense as master Of ocean steamers for
two years.
Clement Acton Griscom, Jr., vice
president and general manager Of the
American line, said: 1.-The sentence
seems little severe. Other men have
lost ships through what was after
wards proved their own carelessness,
and only had their masters license
suspended for Dix months or year at
most. Personally We feel for Captain
Watkins. He has been half century
Ut sea without the slightest accident
before, and it seems very hard upon
him. l am very sorry 1t occurred, for
his sake. We are all liable to error,
and 1t seems too bad that the accident
should have happened and the mistake
made on night when the atmospheric
conditions were such that he received
no help from the land lights. The
captain has many friends, who con-
stantly stop me upon the street. and
express their regrets at the misfor-
tune. All this is very gratifying to
both the company and Captain Wat
kina,"
