LANES REED INJURED.

Mr.. James Reed, struck his leg
against q cake of ice in such a manner
as to bruise 1t severely. 1t became very
much swollen and panied him so badly
that he could not walk without the aid
of crutches. He was treated by physi-
clans, also used several kinds of lini-
ment and two and a half gallons OF
whiskey in bathing IT., but nothing gave
any relief until he began using Cham
berlain's Pain Balm. This brought al
most a complete cure in a weeks time
and he believes that had he not used
this remedy his leg would have had Il
be amputated. Mr.. Reed is one of the

METZ ON THE COAST.
Marshal Rays Deputy Searches Amy
Turner for Opium.

HILO, October 2-Deputy u. S. Mar
shall Metz, who disappeared from Hilo
about a month ago, arrived in San
Francisco safely and is acting in his
official capacity. 1t is not known on
which vessel Mr.. Metz left Hilo, but it
is believed he went on the Martha Da-
Wis and his mission was to prevent the
shipment of opium to Hilo. About one
hour before the Amy Turner sailed from
San Francisco, Deputy Metz and sew
eral deputy marshals boarded the vessel
and announced that it was believed
that opium had been placed on board
and that an investigation would have to
be made. The search extended to the
personal effects of Mrs. and Miss War
land, wife and daughter of the Captain
of the vessel. AS no contraband goods
were found on board the vessel was
allowed to depart. Mr.. Metz told Peul
Soule that he intended returning to the
Islands by the first steamer.-Hawaii

Plans of Rock Island Road for the Com

Some of the Chica go-Colorado lines

eye to the capture of the summers

to the foreground with a series of eX-
cursions that will give the people q
rate of fare to that popular pleasure
ground that will be less than any they
have ever offered them, except on
special occasions. By a new circular
just issued by General Passenger
Agent John Sebastian, OF the Rock ISL
and, the Rock Island! proposes to
run four special excursion trains from
Chicago to Denver. Colorado Springs
and Pueblo. tickets to be good as far be-
yond those points as Salt Lake City and
Ogden, Utah. These trains will tie
run June 20, July 9 and Il, and Aug.
l. The rate of fare will be the
same as that applied to the well
known homeseekers' eXclrsion-one
full fare plus 81. covering the round
trip. good on all trains. The tickets
will be limited to continuous passage
westbound till the first Colorado points
have been passed; and their final limit
will be Oct. 81. This will make it
possible for the tourist along the Rock
Islands lines to spend practically the
entire summer in the mountains, and
all that on what amounts to one fare.
These excursion tickets confer all the
privileges of the regular first class
tickets. The running of four excur-
sion trains to carry the bulk of this
business is contemplated. They are
to leave Chicago about 3 p. m. and
are to reach Denver or Colorado

will play the most difficult instru-

Mahara show is stronger than ever
this year, and has been breaking all
previous phenomenal records in every
city where it has appeared. The
program presented during the enter

comprises many novelties. To enum-

would take up too much space, but. it
can safely be said that the show pre-
scented by the Mahara Ministries is the

The elective system of studies is
soon 10 be put in operation in Chica-
go. and is at present in use in a num-
Der of nigh schools of the west. Supt.
Steele, of Galesburg, started this sys-
tenn in that city five years ago. In
1895. the time of it's Inauguration,
there were in the high school nine
and thIee-tenths pupils to every 1000
inhabitants. Last year the number
had increased to % $40 pupils per
200 inhabitants. Another good re-
suit is that IS $40 per cent of the
pupils are boys. The growth has
been from an enrolment of 234 to an
enrolment of $50. which is an in
crease Of 122 per cent. while the at
tendance in the grades during the
same time has increased only per
cent. Principal Cooley, of La Grange,
where the system is now in operation,
says it works admirably. and that the
difference in the studies chosen is not
so considerable as one might imagine,
but the difference in the attitude of
the pupils toward their studies is very
marked for the better.

To get the boys and girls to come to
school and TO keep them there is one
of the greatest problems in the field
of secondary education today. By far
too small a percentage of pupils now
enter the high schools from the
grades. Also the percentage of boys
in high schools is entirely too small
the country over. The most potent
factor in driving pupils away is the
rule that requires them to take studies
which they do not like and which
they say they cannot master. Hence
it is An imperative duty that courses of
study be offered which shall furnish to
the pupil an opportunity for advance
ment along those lines in which he
has particular interest and for which
he is particularly adapted. The cleo
tive plan enables pupils whose time is
limited to pursue those studies which
will best hit them for their life work.
The high school should be a place to
which the pupil becomes attached. 1t
should be open to him in all his var
ious lines of activity; should furnish
him 4 place. not only for the
study of his lessons, but for his Ii
brary reading; his gymnasium work;
his athletics; his literary and debating
clubs. In short it should be a place
where he might have opportunity to
develop, under proper supervision,
along all educational lines.

There are now number of prom
inent educators who advocate that the
high school should offer those studies
which the needs of the people.demand,
and that few restrictions be placed on
the pupils choice. In the February
number of the Educational View,
Superintendent Edwin p. Seaver. of
Boston, pictures the public high
school of the twentieth century.
Realizing that all boys and girls are
not alike, and that their needs and
capacities vary, Mr.. Seaver would at
tempt TO develop their individuality
by permitting them to choose for
themselves those studies which they
are to pursue. By this he does not
mean that a pupil should be absolute
ly free to take any studies or com bin
alton of studies which he may choose
from the course, but that his studies
shall be selected after careful
consideration by him self, and by
the advice and with the con-
sent of his parents and teachers.
The pupil, however, is to be made to
feel, to large extent, responsible for
the selection. This sense of respon-
sibility may be, and very likely would
be, the best part of his education.
He then pursues only studies which
he is responsible for taking and in
which he has some interest.
