volved in ideal teaching: 1.-The habit of right thinking on the part of the teacher. Acknowledge of the processes involved in growth of both the indi- vidual and the race. Skill in guiding the processes of growth in the individu- al pupil.
 Continuing. MT. Boone said: "The understanding of growth involves a study of mind, the history of education. educational doctrine. educational agencies and method with it's co-rela- ton practice. Of all professional sub jects teachers most need acquaintance with educational doctrine. The most radical emphasis to be put upon pro- fession fitness comedies precedence of academic fitness: yet skill in manipu- lation of these processes of growth comes by practice only. Courses of pedagogy only give no certainty of cf- ficient teaching. The most zealous in sistance upon necessity for professional does not imply disregard of scholastic qualification. The vital defect in the average teacher, both in our own state and elsewhere, is limited information and culture and unsatisfactory mental habits. Abundant experience, generous scholarship, wide reading, travel and the motives which result only from continuous study would impart life and significance to much otherwise aimlesS teaching"

VICTORY FOR BENHAM
City Council Finally Decides to Allow
 His Porch. &

The city council displayed rather an expected streak of common sense last night and issued a permit to J. w. Benham for the erection of his Moorish porch in front of his Curio, at Second avenue and Jefferson street. There were two reasons for the action, either one of which may be given credit for the move. A petition signed by two thirds of the property owners of the city was the more probable cause of the decision, but it is possible that the de- sire to end the many hot special meet ings and hotter controversy over the matter had much to do with the end of the dispute. The trouble commenced several weeks ago and the council or dered the structure torn down. MT. Benham offered strenuous opposition and sundry special sessions were held. in discussion of the difficulty. At last nights meeting Acting Mayor Dyer was present, not displa ying any serious effects from his attack of cramps. Councilman McNeil was game to the finish and fought the Benham matter until he saw he was alone in his stand against it. and then flor the sake of harmony" withdrew his opposition. The permit specifics that the two buttresses at the ends of the arch be removed and that the council may order the removal of the porch at any time it proves an obstacle.
 The council granted City Zanjero John Rock a two weeks vacation be- ginning July 14.
 Joseph Brennan was granted a per init to erect a watering trough in front of his saloon at Seventh avenue and Van Buren street.
 The street and alley committee was ordered to negotiate for the sale of the old hook and ladder truck. The street and alley committee will refuse Creigh- ton x Ambrose permit to build the second floor of the Creighton block at 334 West Washington street. out over , the sidewalk.

AL. GALPIN BADLY,H HURT
One of Long Series of Accidents
 Yesterday.

Accidents in Phoenix were punched yesterday. The most serious one oc- cured in the morning about Il o'clock. A. L. Galpin and Samuel Met ten were working on a scaffold on the new DeMund residence on North Fifth street. The scaffold was about twenty feet high. It gave way suddenly and Mir Galpin was thrown to the ground. The left arm was broken at the elbow and the wrist and the right arm at the wrist. A curi- ous result of the fall was that the filling of the teeth were jared loose. No internal injuries were sustained. The fractures were set by Dr. Duffield. who thought that from the nature of those on the left arm, the wrist and el- bow would probably be stiff. Notwith- standing the character of his injuries MT. Galpin was resting easy last night. Metten, the other man on the scaffold escaped without hurt. The end occu- pied by him was over a porch, which he caught in falling, and let himself down to the ground.
 The next victim of an accident was $. Friedman, a pawnbroker, who fell from a wheel and broke a leg
 The next was Joe Simmons, a mem- Der of the fire department. While serving on a hose cart at the Murphy corral fire the hose was jerked through his hands so swiftly that a coupling tore its way through the flesh at the base of the thumb, inficting an ugly wound.
 C. l.. Coon also sustained a painful injury, cutting the palm of one of his hands on a glass which he was setting in the skylight of the new Sherman building. The cut was a bad one, so severe, in fact, that it numbed the fore arm. The wound bled profusely
 All these victims were attended by the same surgeon and perhaps do not make complete record of casualties.
 There was one other subject who did not receive his injury yesterday. He is Kit Carson, better known as Jerry Mu- lays Indian. He has been employed by MT. Millay at Iron Springs. A few days ago, while hauling a load of freight from Prescott he was thrown from wagon and was found soon after with a broken jaw. He was brought here to Dr. Duffield who found that the frac- ture was complete on the left side of the chin. The fragments of the jaw moved independently of each other. In order to give the jaw as liltle moSs- ment as possible t9 preveni, neucrosis by the r;:5oing of the fractured ends together Bar ton bandage was put on. The Barton bandage is an intricate arrangement for tightly binding up the head and leaving only the ears, eyes, nose and mouth exposed. Plaster was put on to give it additional rigidity, and Kit Carson looked like a mediaeval knight in steel casque. He is forced to live on liquids. This inconvenience is con- pensated for by his inability to swear or make any violent Demonstration with his mouth. That is what the Barr ton bandage is designed to prevent.

Powers Agree That no Territorial Ad- vantage Is to Be Taken by the E CountryiHaving the Larger Army. Foo Chow IS Quiet-Czar receives aJapanese Prince News of Fight ing at Tien Tsin.

London, July 11.-No authentic news from Pekin is still the burden of the dispatches from the east, and although the disposition is to believe the opti- mistic reports from Chinese sources, no real confidence is possible until the ,e gations are permitted to communicate with their governments. If. as alleged. the Boxer movement is losing ground in Pekin, it might have been supposed that the Boxers would have endeavered to send up endorsements from Tien Tsen. but instead of that they are still in great force in the neighborhood of the latter place and are assisted by the Chinese imperial troops, with ample, efficient artillery. According to a Che Foo dispatch, fighting around Tien Tsn on the third and fourth was the severest yet experienced. The British casualties were thirty or forty killed or wounded. The Chinese had 35,1)O men attacking simultaneously from the north. east and west and made excel lent practice with over 100 guns. The defenders numbered 14,OOO, with scant supplies. and it was only the presence of the newly arrived Japanese and Rus sian guns that prevented d disaster.
 One Russian company of infantry had 115 killed or wounded. The German contingent also suffered heavily.
 By the evening of the fourth the situ- ation was very critical. The allies mar rowly escaped total defeat. Providen- tially, when things were at their worst q torrential rainfall compelled the Chi nese to retire.
 On July 6, the rain having abated, the Chinese renewed the attack, opening fire on Tien Tsen with two batteries Of four-inch guns, but the allies. aided by H. M. S. Terrible's guns, succeeded in silencing the artillery after eight hours fighting.

 National Council-Proper Qualifi- cations of Teachers-A Mere Pro fessional Training Is Insufficient.

Charleston. S. C., July 1O-WithOut work of those in charge of the pro- gramme and arrangements, the annual convention of the National Association the largest and most influential or ganization of teachers in the world commenced here this afternoon. En- thusiasm reigned supreme. The Thompson Auditorium, spacious though it is, was hardly able to accommodate the vast throng of eager men and wo- men who sought admittance. Within an hour after the doors were thrown open every seat was occupied. On the platform were a score of educators whose names are household words. Seated side by side throughout the vast auditorium were university and col lege presidents, prominent professors representing all branches of learning and hundreds of teachers representing all departments of educational work from advanced learning to kinder:,a-t> en instruction. As the large delegations, representing Illinois, Indiana, Ohio. Pennsylvania, New York, Iowa, Mis- souri, Colorado and various other states, filed in with banners living they were greeted with enthusiastic cheers from the vast throng of visitors filling the galleries.
 When all of the delegates were in their seats the convention was called to order by don. w. H. Wrlcn, chair man of the focal executive committee. After the usual offering of prayer Gov ernor McSweeney was introduced to hnb nf n The Hon. John J. McMahan, state sup erintendent of public instruction, fol- lowed. Henry P. Archer, superintend- ent of Charleston schools. also bade hearty welcome to the visiting educa- tors, and then Mayor Adger Smith pre- scented to the visitors the freedom of the city.
 Responses to the welcoming ad- dresses were made by Dr. William T. Harris. commissioner of education of the United States; Dr. F. Dram Lyte, of Millersville, Pa.: J. W. Carr of An derson. Ind; and J. A Foshay of Los Angeles.
 After several musical selections had been rendered by orchestra and chorus President O. T. Corson of Columbus. O., delivered his address. which was enthusiastically received.

CONCERNING HIGH SCHOOLS.


 Charleston, S. C., July 1O-At the closing sesson of the National Council of Education this morning the report of the committee on a national univer- sity was presented by President Harper of the University of Chicago. J. NJ. Greenwood, superintendent of public schools of Kansas City, Mo, read an interesting paper entitled Some High School Statistics" Professor Green wood said in part:
 ''The methods of tabulating high school statistics are imperfect, unreli- able, unsystematic and contradictory. There is nothing to show the various movements in the schools by masses or classes in specific branches. or in de- partments of study out of which re- liable information can be obtained. A widespread belief exists that many first year pupils quit high school during the first year because they have to study algebra and Latin. This assump- tion is too narrow. Replies received to a high school circular sent to sixty large cities show very curious facts as to enrolment by classes. ages of pupils failures in classes and quitting school Statistics from city reports and from state reports furnish interesting but unsatisfactory reading. From them the following conclusions may be derived.
 That young children who complete the work of the grammar school and enter high schools show the least per. cent of failures in class standing or withdrawals from school.
 That the older pupils who enter the high school are most likely to fail or quit during the first year.
 That failures in class standing are greatest in mathematics. second in En- glish, third in the ancient and modern languages, fourth in the natural scien- ces and fifth in history The work of the pupils can be more sharply meas ured in two of these departments. mathematics and languages, while the others afford a fine opportunity to talk about the subjects rather than to talk into them.
 That in a seven years course of study from one-third to one-half more pupils will enter high school than when the course of study below the high school is eight or nine years. and that the pupils are just as well prepared. if the entrance age to the ward school is not under six years.
 That if the pupil remains in the high school through the first and second years, the chances are slightly in favor of his completing the course.
 That a committee should be appoint ed for the purpose of preparing and submitting to the council at it's next meeting a uniform system of blanks for the use of high schools of the United States

Cumberland, Conn.,, July 9-James Moran was arrested in Manville yester- day afternoon by Chief of Police Dona- hoe on suspicion of being responsible for the death of Edward McVeigh of that village. McVeigh was the victim of an assault on the highway and re- ceived injuries from which he died. The assault occurred on last Christmas night. and death occurred a couple of weeks later. Chief DOnahoe says the assault was in the nature of a hold-up. as McVeigh was robbed of a sum of money. From the day of the assault Chief Donahoe has been working quiet ly on the case, and believes the evi- dence he has against Moran will be suf- ficient to have him tried on the serious charge.

CLAIM JUMPING.

San Francisco, July 1O.-The news that martial law had been proclaimed at Nome City by General Randall. in charge of the United States troops in that district, was brought here tonight by the steamer St. Paul, thirteen days from S. Michael. The necessity for martial law arose out of the jumping of mining claims and other acts of law lessness. The St. Paul also reports a great many cases of smallpox and ty- phoid fever at Nome. When she sailed it was thought, however. that the fur ther spread of the disease had been checked.
