SCHOOL NOTES
LOLA PREvEY. Editor

The pupils of the High School are
making for themselves a grand die
tionary.
We understand the board of educa-
ton has decreed us a vacation. To
some it will seem short, to others long.
Miss Nellie Sullivan for the last
week has had to carry her head on one
side, evidently carbunkle has been
keeping her company.

High School: Laura Seide, Welcome

Review. The poem was neatly con-
structed, and it is worthy of praise.
1t will be remembered that the class
of 1901 were so unfortunate as not to
receive their Junior diplomas last
Spring on account of not having done
| full amount of work. A choice was
given them of making up the required
work, either by reading the first four
| books of Ceaser or taking Geology.
| Miss Celia Vandervoort and Miss
Lola Prevey were the first to make up
the required work in Latin, to whom
diplomas were granted last Monday.
| Some stalwart looking young men
have recently entered the Grammar
School. Quite a number of the young
men who were in the High School last
winter have returned together with
some new ones. To accomoda ate them
and some others who wish to review,
an extra class of Latin has been start

A Young Traveller.

Sandy Lyon, who was con
ductor on the passenger train
east last Saturday night, was
more than usually excited as he
reached MiIbank with his train
on that date, and telephoned up
town for a physician. DR.. Jaco-
tel answered the call, the train
being held some twenty minutes
to take him along. It was after
wards learned that Sandy S eX-
cited condition was due to the
fact tha just before the arrival
of the train at Milbank it was dis
covered that one of his lady pas
sengers had with her boy for
whom the mother had failed to
get a ticket. In fact Sandy
hadn't seen the boy get on the
train and nobody else had, but
there he was, with a voice like a
brakeman and clothed III the full
uniform that Adam wore before
he ate the apple. The mother
and child were made as comfort,
able as possible under the cir
Gums tances in the drawing room
of the sleeper, and receiv ed the
atten ton of a number of ladies
who happened to be on the train
and DR.. Jacotel remained with
her until they reached ST. Paul,
where they were taken to the
home of the lady, mother, the
haven of refuge for which the
lady had started with the best OF
int ntions but with fallible judg-
.nent as to time.

TOWBOATS COLLIDE
At the Hcatherington Coal Tippl

At the Hcatherington Coal Triple.
Other RiverTtems of Interest.
A collision occurred last evening
on the river between two towboats
just off Heatherington's coal works,
south of Bellaire. The Joseph Walton
was passing down with a big tow of
coal and model barges, struck head on
to the Pacific No. rs tow of empties.
The accident cannot be explained in
any other way than that the Walton's
tow became unmanageable and swung
in the cross current.
The Walton lost two boats of coal
and a model barge of heavy freight,
the bows being stove in both fleets
were cut apart and the barges scatter
ed all over the river. No one wal in
jured. The loss is Appropriated at
$4,000.
The keystone State was coaling at
the tipple at the time the collision oc-
Cured and was compelled to cast off
and back down very quickly to keep
out of the mix IN. The two fleets
were speedily collected and the boats
continued or their way. The loss will
be total.

Electric Light Company's New Or
Was Adopted.
At the regular meeting of the Ben
wood Council, held last evening, the
usual amount of routine business was
transacted and the electric light ques-
ton was settled satisfactorily. On mo-
ton the new ordinance, as presented
by the local electric light company,
providing for the commercial rates for
-incandescent lights in use by the nner-
chants was adopted. The ordinance
fixes the price Of the first three lights
at $3.50, the fourth light at 30 cents,
the fifth light at 20 cents, per month,
each additional light over five at 20
cents per month, and each porch or
outside light at so cents per month.
The new rates mean an increase of
S1.40 per year in the price of each adj
ditional light over five to the mer-
chants.
Among other business a report was
seceived from the local water supply
company.

A NEW METHOD
OF Teaching Mathematics AdOpfe
ut the LinsIy Institute.

Of Teaching Mathematics Adopted
ut the Linsly Institute.
Lieut.. Dent, principal Of the Linsly
Institute, has introduced an entirely
new system Of mathematics in the in
~stitUtion for the instruction OF the
younger boys. 1t is called the Spears
method of teaching mathematics, and
does away with arithmetic, geometry
and trigonometry. 1t was originated
by Mr.. Spears, assistant superintendent
of schools of Chicago, and has been in
vogue in all the schools in that city
since the Worlds Fair. AT present it
is used generally in the Northwest, and
has also been adopted by a number Of
Eastern schools.
Mr.. Dent only adopted the system as
an experiment. 1t is best to secure
boys for instruction in it who have
never studied even elementary arithme-
tic. A recitation was given before sew
eral visitors yesterday. The boys in
the class were all about twelve years OF
age and have only received four
months instruction under the system,
and yet the quickness and correctness
with which they attained mentally the
results of the really difficult problems
in fractions, denominate numbers, ratio
and proportion and geometry was really
wonderful. 1t also develops the de-
~scTiptive powers.
The system itself IS very hard to ex-
plain. 1t is the method Of reaching
mathematics based en- the relations of
magnitude and is not considered as the
science of numbers. There are nc rules
connected with 1t, nor does multiplied
ton or division enter into it, but the
results are arrived at through the pro-
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1900-01-24
