FATHER OF KINDERGARTEN.
FroebeI Looked to Woman az His
Natural Ally to Make 1t
Success.

After spending years wrestling with
the problems of education, Friedrich
Froebel, founder of the kindergarten,
arrived at the conclusion that the
school could never be a success until
the home performed its function as an
educational institution also, writes
Patterson Dubois, in the March Ladies'
Home Journal. Thenceforth his domi-
nant interest was focused on the cradle
rather than on the schoolhouse. He
became the great apostle of the home.
lie looked to woman as his natural
ally, yet he was not oblivious to the
fathers part in homemaking. His
proposition for a general educational
union was addressed to fathers He
firmly believed, however, that woman
was to be the worlds great education
al force. She was to regenerate the
race. Yet he realized that this meant
mat she must suffer even as he suf-
fcreu. Whoever will go with me-" he
said, must undertake great deal
must suffer ridicule and blame, and let
themselves be burned Or torn in pieces. :"
lie wanted mother to be something
more than a beloved mother" He
says: in order to render the com
mand of Christ effective, education in
the family must first be reformed
otherwise there will be no solid foun-
dation for subsequent education to
stand on"

DOG IN THE SCEOOLROOM.
Courageous Teacher Who Found
That Her Pupils Were Better
for His Presence.

Since DR.. Hale promulgated his plan
about pets in the public schools, have
heard from several teachers who have
made experiments of this sort with
success, says the Boston Transcript.
One excellent teacher had an expert
ence with dog which was instructive.
One of her pupils, a slum boy with
bad reputation, had very "ornery'
bull terrier which was sure to &C every
where the boy did, and followed him to
school one day.
The boy arrived little late with the
dog; the other children knew that the
pair were coming, and they were on TIL
alert for scene In came the boy With
the big bull terrier at his heels. The
pupils held their hands to their mouth.
The teacher showed no sign of surprise,
but said: "Ah, | see we have a new
scholar. What's his name, Michael?"
Michael said his name was Grip, or
something like that am not quite
sure what it was. "Ah, Grip, here,
Grip!" said the teacher, Hospitality
and sympathetically, and the dog came
upto her and let her pat his bead. Then
she told him, gently but firmly, to lie
down by her desk, and he did. There
he remained, sleeping peacefully or
quietly watching the proceedings of
the school, until the intermisson.
The children wero all over their
snickering and wondering in a, few
minutes and seemed pleased and cheer
full because the dog was in the room.
He was adopted as a regular attendant
and from that time on spent most of
his time by the teachers desk, though
often he accompanied his master into
the recitation-room, where his behavior
was always excellent.
The teacher AYERS that her pupils arc
less disorderly and troublesome when
the dog is present than when he is alb
sent.

Yes, August Flower still has the larg-

to clean ont the system and stop fermen-

JOHN NAGLE.

At just before six o'clock last evening
John Maggie, for the last twenty-five
years the editor Of the Pilot, passed away
at the Holy Family Hospital after an Ill
ness of about one week. He had return
ed a short time before from Il trip In the
south. and was unwell during the last
DAYS of his tourney The germs OF ty-
nboid were undoubtedly implanted in
his system during his absence, and last
week Wednesday he was obliged to take
TO his bed. The fever developed rapidly
and on Friday he was removed to the
hospital. Three days later the disease
was pronounced typhoid pneumonia and
the physicians held ont little hope Tor
his recovery. Every possible care was
given him by loving relatives and the
physicians and nurses in charge, but all
efforts to stay the progress OF the disease
were vain. Death came suddenly ana
probably without pain As there had
been no perceptible weakening during
the day none of the family were present
at the time.
Mr.. Nagle was born nSt Catharines,
Ontario Canada on July4 1913. While
still boy his parents move to the town
of Meeme, this county. There ne grew
to manhood acquiring his education
through the country schools and by
much private study. After some years
spent in teaching he bought an interest
in The Pilot and became its editor III
1878, and has been the sole proprietor OF
the paper most Of the time since. Ills
interest in the common schools led him
to accept the superintendency OF the
schools of the county, which position he
held for ten wears and only gave up on
account of pressure of private affairs
His interest in ManitoWoc was deep and
he devoted much time to advancing the
fortunes of his home city. lie was PROB
ably more widely known throughout his
city and county than any one who has
ever resided here, His nearest surviv-
Ing relatives are his aged father and SIX
sisters. Mrs. Kirwan Mrs. Ryan, Mrs.
Broderick and Miss Annie NaSle of
Manitowoc, Mrs Mulloy of Nebraska
and Mrs. Baringer of Michigan.
As the time before the Pilot must go
to press is very short nothing adequate
can be written concerning Mr.. Nagles
life and character for insertion In this
issue. That task will be reserved for an
other a I'd more familiar hand, and the
completer sketch will be published next
week The funeral services will be held
next Saturday afternoon at two o'clock.

Tn. Brysnl1lng of The Democrats.

From a speech by James II. Eckles, controller
OF the currency under President Cleveland.l
In every section OF the country business
men, no matter what the calling, repudiate
the declaration Of the Democratic party of
today as violative of all sound rules of
business conduct and destructive of those
underlying principles upon which the
common welfare of the successful CONNER
clal world must rest.
The difficulty with Mr.. Bryan's states.
manship is that 1t is statesmanship of
prejudice, class distinctions and misin-
formation. II is craftsmanship which
takes no thought of the morrow, but con-
tents itself with the political advantage of
today. venture the statement that in all
the range OF American political annals
there never has appeared a public man
who has illumed so many different ques-
tons with so much transformation. The
leadership Of Mr.. Bryan found its origin
in the peculiar conditions Of the world of
business and labor four years since. 1t
has maintained itself because in the Bryan
iziDg OF the organization the Democracy
has been denuded of every leader Of
thought, sagacity and high political prin-
ciple. 1t has now neither ability for
political organization, nor capacity for
wise, safe, conservative constructive legis.
lation. In the last analysis the leadership of
Mr.. Bryan demonstrates itself to begin and
end in denunciatiOn of the existing order
of things. Is it safe to trust the govern
mental control of a great nation in the
keeping of man who sees nowhere any
thing to commend; who is quick TO charge
conspiracy and dishonesty upon great
numbers of people who in daily Inc draw
TO themselves the respect OF all their fell
lowsP What thoughtful and inquiring
citizen will from a knowledge of Mr..
Bryan's past erroneous discussion of these
paramount economic problems believe him
capable of bringing about proper solution
of present ones?

NEW HAMPSHIRE NOTES.
A Youthful Giant.
James Ernest UUderwoodor swaBzey is
Only is Years old, but Tie stands o
Feet, Ia Inches In His Stockings.

James Ernest Uoderwoodor swanzsy Is
Only is Years Old, but lie stands o
Feet, Ia Inches In His Stockings.
The talest young man in New Hamp-
shire lives with his parents on a farm in
Swanzey factory hamlet, town of Swanzey,
adjoining the Keene line. Swanzey the
home of Denman Thompson, has always
been noted for its quaint Yankee characters,
and many men of remarkable strength and
hight.
Among the latter may be named Lloyd
Richardson, western railroad president,
who died recently at Hot Springs, Ark
who was about feet 0 inches in hight;
and the so-called 'Forty-foot" Whitcomb,
one Of the progenitors Of the Joshua Whit
comb of 1.-THE Old Homestead"
But none of these, it is believed, has
equaled the phenomenal hight of the sub
jsct of this sketch, which is 6 feet a in.
ches, in stocking feet, and the young man
is less than 1S years of age, and still shoot
ing rapidly into the air.
This phenomenal character is James Ern-
est Underwood, son of George l.. Under
wood, a farmer and horseman. The young
man has filed out but little and is very
thin, weighing but trifle over 1853 pounds.
His father is Of good hight and proportions,
but not physically remarkable, but his
mother is above the average in weight and
hight He has a brother and a sister,
neither of whom are of more than ordinary
proportions.
Young Underwood is in excellent physi-
cal health and is very strong for his years,
excelling in all out-of-door games and con-
tests. He makes a remarkable appearance
on his bicycle, which has a very high frame,
with the saddle post foot high. The ma
chine was made to order. The youthful
giant has received many offers from travel
ing show companies that have appeared in
Keene, but so far has refused them all,
contentedly devoting himself to work on
the farm. He is especially fond of horses,
and owns young stallion, Dictator, which
promises to become speedy trotter. He
once tock part as an end man in an anna
teur minstrel performance at Keene and
made great hit. He also once took the
part of a juryman in a mock trial given by
the Monadnock cycle club of Keene.
His friends think he will weigh at least
200 pounds when he gets his full growth,
but meantime he keeps lengthening out
every day, and may not stop growing up
ward for some time yet. He is of a rather
retiring disposition, and takes his notority
with becoming modesty.

THE STRIKE AT NEW LONDON.

section Men Who Refused 60 Take the
Place or strikers Were Discharged---
Eight Persons stranded In BrattIe-
bOrO.
Some of the local section men were Or
dered to go to New London Saturday to
take the places of strikers on the docks,
but none of them did so and several were
discharged. Very few section men we're
at work between Brattleboro and New
London on that day. The Central Yer
mont road sent a number of men from st.
Adams to New London on passes the last
of the week, but when the men learned
what the situation was they refused to go
to work, and passes were given them from
New London to Brattleboro. Five men,
two women and our.year-old girl were
put off the night train at the local station
Monday, and they applied to Chief-of-
Police Hall for lodging. Mr.. Hall found
lodging for some of them at Mrs. Bush
nelPs, and the others he gave lodging in
the lookup. On Tuesday morning the
selectmen telegraphed the railroad COM
pany to provide the eight persons trans
portation back to st. Adams or action
would be brought to recover damages.
The transportation was provided and the
wanderers left for home on the 1910
train at night. 1t is said that a large
number of section men were ordered to 20
to South Wellington, Conn, and when
they arrived there they were ordered TO
New London to take the place of strikers
Nearly all of the IS or 100 men refused to
comply and were summaTily discharged.
