FEATURES OF EDUCATION.
Now the Exhibit at St. Louis Will Be
Distinctive From That at Any
Other Centennial.
BY A H. wETMoRE.

Education finds more recognition III
he Louisiana Purchase Exposition than
in any previous centennial celebration.
1t is the keynote of the great enter
prise, permeating every display. More
over, the idea in it's abstract has a home
Of it's own, in that for the first time in
history the appliances of school life are
shown in a building constructed eX-
clusively for this purpose.
AT Chicago and at Paris this exhibit
was made u department Of something
else. At st. Louis it is seen alone.
housed in Il palace which many con-
of any on the grounds.
Besides, in the classification Of ex-
hibits education leads all others, taking
rank over fine arts, manufacture and
all the industries.
In remarking these facts visitors have
added that it was strange such promi-
hence had not been given to education
before, and they are loud in their praise
Of those who have carried the idea so
prominently to the front.
In st. Louis the revealment of process
will be carried out In the Palace of Edu-
cation as well as in the other palaces.
Formerly it was deemed sufficient to
arrange in booths samples Of text books
and of apparatus of the laboratory and
observatory. Appliances used in the
schoolroom were displayed convention.
ally, and visitors could pass through
aisle after aisle and view only the
technicalities Of the world Of instruc-
ton. AS a result the pedagogue only
was interested.
In st. Louis, however, there is to be
actual demonstration of the use made
Of all such appliances, and the multi
tude will find itself entertained. Thus
the model training school will be a
creature Of life-boys to be seen using
the tools Of the various trades. Pupils
Of a school for the blind will demon
strate the methods in vogue where the
sense Of touch is made to supply that
Of sight, and those who are deaf and

EIGHT DROWN IN MINE.
Water 100 Feet Deep Rushed in Gold
Hill Shaft.

Salisbury, N. c., Aug. 1.-the
Barringer gold mine, located near
Gold Hill, N. c., Rowan County, was
suddenly flooded with water late this
afternoon, causing the instant death
of eight men employed in the mine.
The dead are:
William Ganup.
William Stirewalt.
Joseph Magrum.
Robert Deberry.
Samuel Price.
Three others who have not yet been
identified.
Nine men were in the mine shaft.
when a large pond located near the
entrance to the mine suddenly broke
loose, the breakage being caused by
excessive rains. The waters rushed
upon the men in terrific and deadly
force to a depth of about 100 feet.
The workmen were powerless to save
themselves.
