TEACHERS HAVE SCHEME .-
Think They Can Make Sure OF College
Pedaooov.

Ot TCddSOSS.
The high school council this morning
listened with approval to plan for arous-.
| ing by strategy, as it had been unable to-
do so by persuasion. an interest in the
university board of regents in the pro-
posal to establish college OF pedagogy
The plan is to demand a separate state
college; if not at the university, then by
the transformation of one of the normal
schools into such an institution. The plan
was proposed by J. A. Van Dyke, CHAIR
man of a committee appointed last year
| to canvass the sentiment of the state.
RESPONSES to letters showed universal
demand for such a college: spfeferaofs at
| the university. DR.. w. w. FoiWell tes-
tilted to the effectiveness Of good healthy
! scare in such a matter and approved OF its
use calling attention to a similar plan
used by the friends of the mining college.
| ..The relation Of the department OF ped
| agogy in our state university to the hlgn
| schools of the state was one OF the chleI
| TOPICS of the morning. 1t was treated
from the standpoint of the professional
| school by Professor George F. James OF
| the department Of pedagogy. He pointed
| out that the lower schools We're in large
part responsible for the teachers turned
| out because teachers were largely nodded
and Influenced by their previous educa-
| tion. Their teaching was certain to re.
! fleet their own schooling in the elemen'
| tary and secondary schools. DR.. James al.
so called attention to the limitations OF th<
school, saying it could only, modify and
direct outside forces and influences. Said
/ he:
1.-The best organized and best supported
school system cannot effect that complete
/ eradication Of vice and crime, Of NUM-
cipal corruption and dominant selfshness.
that distinguished educator has recently
demanded Of it. This demand of Presi-
dent Eliot is a conspicuous example of the
extravagant demands made OF the public
school system, that lead unrefecting
minds to unjust criticism .t,.-
George B. Alton, treating the subject
from the point of view of the inspector
and supervisor, outlined plan for a COL
lege of pedagogy at the university with
professors chosen for their knowledge OF
field work In order to keep them in vital
touch with school defects and needs, he
would have them devote part of the year
| to school inspection.

Unknown 10 Women.

Every woman should read, without
fail. the following paragraph. She
will learn something about herself she
never knew before.
Thompson's Barosma is not only a
wonderful kidney, liver and bladder
cure, but has particular advantage
as remedy for Chronic Female Weak
ness, Palpitation of the Heart, bearing
down sensations, Nervous Debility,
Leucorrhoea or Whites, and Dropsical
Swellings. It's peculiar advantage lies
in the fact that it is both q female reg
ulator and kidney, liver and bladder
cure. The womb is situated back OF
and very close to the bladder. A wo-
man having any pain or distress in the
back or side at once attributes it to fe-
male weakness when many times her
trouble is entirely from the kidneys or
bladder Hence a woman making this
grave mistake will find sure remedy
in Thompson's Barosma, for whether
she is suffering from womb disorder or
any disease of the kidneys, liver and
bladder Barosma will effect a perma-
nent cure. For this two-fold reason
Thompson's Barosma is the best wO-
mans remedy on the market. ThOmp-
sons Dandelion and Mandrake Pills
should be used with the Barosma, for
the liver and constipation. They are
purely vegetable and do not grippe.

WIKE the famous king Of France
"a who marched his army up the
81 n hill and then marched down
again, the Confederate General
Bragg doubled on his tracks at Chicka-
manga; but, unlike the hero in the IA
biz, Bragg didn't get all the way back
to the starting point. His army was
holding Chattanooga, on the bank OF
the Tennessee river. The Federals I'M
der Rosecrans wanted Chattanooga,
but instead of attacking the stronghold
in front, where the enemy was pre-
pared to resist, the Yankee leader
marched his army around the town to
tempt the foe to an open field fight.
Bragg marched out southwark, and
the two armies played hide and seek
among the mountains until Rosecrans
was on the inside Of the circle, with
the enemy cut off from Chattanooga.
Bragg discovered his plight when
the Chickamauga creek lay between
him and the foe and Chattanooga. He
supposed that only some scattered dl-
visions of Federals were posted as
guards of the roads back to Chattanoo-
ga. These he would brush away and
then turn and crush the rest Of Rose
Grams army. He sent one corps across
the creek on the 18th of September.
These troops showed themselves to
some Federal outposts on the road who
belonged to the command of General
Thomas. the destined hero of Chicka-
manga.
Thomas was as much in fog about
the situation of the Confederates as
was Bragg about the enemy he was
seeking to outwit. His scouts told OF
one brigade that had come across the
Chickamauga alone. The bridge had
been destroyed behind these venture
some ConfederateS, and it looked easy
to swoop down and capture them.
With a corps of three divisions to Sc
lect from, Thomas sent three brigades
after the roaming enemy.
When the searching party found the
enemy which had rashly crossed the
river of blood" the isolated brigade
had grown to be body of Forests
cavalry backed by two brigades of in
fantry. Still supposing that he had a
single brigade to cope with, the Fed
eral division leader, General Brannan,
attacked in the expectation Of speedy
victory and drove the intruders back
half mile. Then things looked differ
ent. There was whole corps of Con-
federates on the wrong side Of the
creek backing up Forrest. Finding
that one division was not enough to
take care Of that straying brigade,
Thomas sent another division after the
first. The united divisions also drove
the enemy for time, but the victori-

KENTUCKY ORPHANS
Gus march soon came to halt in the
presence of a host of men in gray who
had slipped across the creek while the
Federals were looking for them in an
other direction.
From the humSlest private in the
ranks to the general in chief, both
armies were surprised to find how
many there were at that moment with
their eyes fixed on the roads leading
from Chickamauga's dark waters to
Chattanooga. Thomas had opened the
battle of Chickamauga. His troops
were ON every road and byroad. The
Federal division or two OF Isolated
troops which Bragg expected would be
driven away by FORESTS cavalry and
the infantry corps which had crossed
with him turned out to be the left
wing of ROSecranS' army planted on
the ground to fight for the right OF
way. Here was q dilemma for the
Confederate leader, and the first move
of his antagonist made the situation
worse for the general, who wanted to
march back home again.
When Bragg thrust his vanguard OF
cavalry and one corps across the creek
TO clear the way for his homeward
march the leading corps Of Federais
under General McCook had marched
away up stream. leaving far behind it
the key to the region. the road from
the creek to RoSsville. a village in a
gap in the mountain OF Missionary
ridge. the single pass into Chattanoo-
ga. Bragg had really counted upon
hurting the main part OF his army be-
tween Thomas and McCOok, cutting the
Federals in two and forcing them to
let go OF the Rossyille road, which his
vanguard TecId seize and defend.
