An Educational Problem.

That very clever Maine writer, Martha
Baker Dunn of Waterville, in the July
Atlantic, tells many wholesome and
some unpalatable truths as to the gen
eral acknowledgement of educational
problems, the often disheartening treat
ment Of public school teachers, and the
constituencies demands generally, if not
universally, made upon them. Mrs.
Dunn. herself an eX-school committee
woman, is blessed with an observant
mind and her pen is most enioyably
guided by it. "AnOther modern notion. y
She says. (which helps to make the path
of the school teacher thorny one is
the theory that child ought to be put
ting out simultaneously and in every
direction as many feelers as centipede
has legs. AS a matter of fact, a pupil
who has learned thOroughness and APP
plication has acquired something, even
if he cannot explain the procession of
| the equinoXes or tell how many feath-
ers there are on Il hen. There used. in
the former days. to be a good many
poetic SMILES in which the unfolding of
a child's mind was likened to the gradual
opening of a flower leaf by leaf. The
revised plan admits of 10 such senti-
mental and slow-moving processes. \
child's mind is now opened like an UNI
brella, expanding equally and simultane-
ously at all points and, fortunately for
the child, it also resembles the umbrella
in that it sheds a good deal more than
! it retains The truths which Mrs Dunn
sets forth deserve consideration at the
| hands of all educators and parents.

Grave Fears Expressed rs to the Ultimate

Frankfort, KY, March 12.-The
war scare here has again apparently
flattened, though leaders on both sides
still express grave fears as to the ulti-

guised as soldiers, have, been placed
In the county jail at Louisville.
Belief among the Republicans that
attempts will be made to arrest Re-
publican legislators in connection with

las resulted In several members leav-

either to confirm or deny that such
warrants nave been issued, thorgh ad-
hitting that more arrests viii, take
place within a few days 1t Is assert
ed that Governor Taylor Is being
urged to move the executive offices to
London, where he will be safe from
possible arrest, but that so far he has
refused to entertain the idea. Both
houses of the legislature met In the
state house in the morning. In an
ticipation Of a possible attempt by the
state troops to prevent the meeting,
quite a crowd gathered around the
state house square at the hour of
meeting, but the members of the legis-
lature were allowed to meet without
molestation.

Rochester, Ind, March 1.-TWO
years ago Rev. Il. I. Spohn was as
signed to the Rochester circuit by the
Northwest Indiana Methodist confer

and he served five churches. At the
end of the year charges were preferred
against him by members of one OF his
congregations because he had failed
to pay his debts.
When conference met he set up the
defense that he could not pay what he
owed because his church members had
failed to pay his salary. Bishop Nal
lalieu refused to give the preacher an
other charge until his obligations had
been satisfied. Rev. Spohn then began
